#211: Zach Sokol

Zach Sokol on Cigarette Snuffers, SoundCloud Mixes, Alissa Bennett’s Zines, and more.

Cool people like cool things, which is why we asked Zach Sokol to share a taste of his taste on Perfectly Imperfect.

Zach Sokol is a writer, editor, and photographer based in NYC. He and Asher Penn run the incredible Sex Magazine that’s featured everyone from Paul Schrader to 100 Gecs. Their 13th issue is for sale now and it has a great Drain Gang cover, a cool PI ad, and interviews with people like RXKNephew, Miyako Bellizzi, The Perfume Nationalist, Allie Rowbottom, and Tom Tuna. Zach is also the founder of Cash Only, a new-ish interview series that’s kinda like if Perfectly Imperfect was focused on drugs. Previously, he ran editorial at Snoop Dogg’s weed media company MERRY JANE and before that he was a writer/editor at VICE. He’s written for publications like Playboy, i-D, The Paris Review, Fader, and High Times. Lucky for us, Zach is here to tell us what he’s been into.

Without further ado
