Vancouver-based photographer and Greasy zine director Sam Olson joins the pod for a deep dive into club culture — past, present, and what’s coming next.
Sam is the creative force behind Greasy, a Queer and Indigenous fashion, arts, and culture zine, and we bond immediately over a shared obsession with NYC club kids, early club culture, and the DIY worlds that shaped everything we’re seeing now. From the raw energy of the early days to how those influences show up in fashion and nightlife today, this conversation is pure cultural memory.
We also get into Vancouver’s current club scene, who the new IT kids are, what feels exciting (and what feels tired), and how Sam is documenting this moment through photography and publishing. Plus, a look ahead at Sam’s upcoming projects and what they’re building next.
For anyone who cares about nightlife as culture — not just a night out — this one’s essential.
