Be Punk! | Daryl Wilson | TEDxNaperville

Being a punk is much more then you think it is. ER Doctor by day and punk rocker by night Dr Daryl Wilson shares how we might all benefit if we are all a little more punk. Dr. Daryl Wilson graduated with a B.S. in Biology from Illinois Benedictine College (now Benedictine University), attended Loyola University’s Stritch School of Medicine for medical school, and did his residency training at John Stroger Hospital in Cook County. He has been an attending physician since 2000. He is an emergency physician at Edward Hospital in Naperville and currently one of four EMS medical directors for Region 8 in Illinois. He’s a Naperville resident and the father of three girls.
By night, however, he performs as lead vocals for The Bollweevils, a Chicago-based punk band that he’s performed in since medical school. Since 1989, the group has released multiple albums and performed across the country at festivals like Riot Fest and with bands like the Smoking Popes. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at www.ted.com/tedx

[@stevenparson0]

You say that like it's a bad thing a list of Republicans are against big government isn't that supposed to be the very thing that punks stand against and at least they're trying to tear down the pre-built establishment so who's the real punks sounds like the Republicans

[@PunktimeVZ]

Briefly chatted with Daryl outside the High Dive in Gainesville this past year at Fest. He's the kindest dude and still immensely stoked on being in a band and hanging out with other musicians and fans. Nineties skate punk will never die!

[@EKDupre]

DAMN RIGHT! Im a punk too. I want to be less wrong. I want to know what constitutes the authentic human being. Cheers from Portland OR

[@thetaphi2347]

Ew

[@jamesmartin3533]

[@catrocastre8215]

I've been thinking this for sometime now, guess I need confirmation from a happy person.

[@tonyrobles2696]

EXACTLY!!!!!

[@jprosentreter]

Dr. Wilson...telling it as it is, this is why this dude is ONE of my favorite people. Keep KILLIN' it Doc!

[@mtav2020]

As a nonconformist, this message rings true in my life

[@fullmetalpatr10t]

This blew my mind because I didn't realize until the very end that I saw Dr. Wilson play in concert some 25 years ago. I always wondered what became of the Bollweevils and I never realized that they live so close to where I live. Excellent talk and even better music!

[@PunktimeVZ]

Their latest record is a joy.

[@kathrynbromfield9248]

Inspired. Thank you ❤️ 🎤🎸

[@LordButler]

I don’t know you but you’re a brother from a different mother! I’m going into radiologic technology and always thought - “why do I have to “look” like the people doing the same things I’m attracted to? Answer - I don’t. I’ll help save lives with my mohawk and my gauges and do the job just as good, if not better, because I’m being myself. Keep rockin, doc! ☠️🤘☠️

[@melsrebellion6083]

This means a lot to me.

[@stygian4330]

Elon musk is an example of people that punks are against, he is not punk

[@genossinwaabooz4373]

That is one thing he IS NOT!

[@WVMothman]

I was in the 80's hardcore punk scene; but I gravitated to bands with a sci fi twist because I was tired of the politics.

[@whatever85x]

happy I found this video hope you are going great have a good one.

[@moily7591]

Thax Doc made me look at things differently, even if a little bit

[@LucidLeSpook]

Lol, by this logic....im already punk. Awesome.

[@stepandanek6138]

[@barbaravs1814]

[@YoursNic]

Nailing it!

[@lukesayers5850]

Thanks. I needed to remember.

[@RyanNightTalks]

[@ctrevormanika9048]

I can think of a subset of punks to keep kicking when they’re down.

[@Crucial47]

this mf said elon is punk lol

[@patcaza6166]

Coltrane was punk

[@Audio-1nj3ct]

don't ever call yourself a punk, we are all posers in the scene.

[@ライラアー]

huh

[@feefawfern8240]

Does anyone really think Elon Musk is punk?
I mostly really liked this video... But, it has never occurred to me that Elon Musk was punk, I once saw him wearing a bandana, in an interview. I thought about that a few times, because I thought it looked kinda cool, but I never connected the dots, and I am still failing to do so after watching this video.
Again, does anyone really think Elon Musk is punk, other than Daryl Wilson?
Daryl Wilson do you still think Elon Musk is punk?
