‘Do You Remember’ 5-part podcast series to trace origins, legacy of Hüsker Dü

From the venerable Slicing Up Eyeballs:

“Minnesota Public Radio’s The Current has just  launched a five-part documentary podcast series called “Do You Remember?” that promises to trace the formative years and legacy of Hüsker Dü through interviews with those who were there as well as the three band members themselves — including Grant Hart, who was interviewed in August, weeks before his death.

The series comes at a time of heightened awareness for the pioneering hardcore-punk trio following Hart’s September death and the release of Numero Group’s highly anticipated Savage Young Dü box set, believed to be the first in a series of archival releases celebrating the trio.

The first episode, which features interviews with Hart and bandmates Bob Mould and Greg Norton, can be streamed below. Sign up with your local podcast supplier to get the rest as they’re released.”

This series is from 2017, but I only found out about it today.  Hüsker Dü were my favorite punk band for some years, and it’s a great way to spend time covering their history.  You might also be interested to read fan reactions of the band.
