**Devin:**No problem, happy to be here.
**Host:** So,let’s cut to the chase. The “Free Luigi” shirt is clearly a pointed commentary. Can you elaborate on the message behind it?
**Devin:** Absolutely. It’s a direct reference to luigi Mangione, the CEO of UnitedHealth Group. A guy who makes millions while millions more struggle under crushing medical debt. We wanted to bring attention to that injustice, and what better way than through a shirt that sparks conversation, even if it’s a little provocative.
**Host:** And you’re donating all proceeds to charities combating medical debt. That’s commendable.
**devin:** It’s the least we can do.This isn’t just about selling shirts,it’s about using our platform to effect real change,even in a small way.
**Host:** Of course, the response has been mixed, to say the least. Some applaud your audacity, others find it insensitive. How do you react to the backlash?
**Devin:** We knew this wouldn’t be universally praised. Sanguisugabogg has never been one to shy away from controversy.
We’re not trying to be universally loved; we’re trying to start a conversation, get people thinking. Maybe make some folks uncomfortable. Because if we’re not doing that, we’re not doing our job.
**Host:** Well said. Last question: any plans for further activism through music or merch?
**Devin:** Always.This is just the beginning. We’ll keep pushing boundaries, keep speaking truth to power.
**Host:** Powerful words, Devin.Thanks for your time and candor.
