So, this is a strange one... I don't know how many of you are going to want to download and listen to this, but this show was recorded Wednesday with my oldest friend, Topher, who was in town, and features a lot of us talking about how we met, how we grew up, our time rooming together in college, the period in time where we faded from each others' lives and our eventual return and where it's found us.

 

Don't get me wrong. There's a bunch of music here, and I think the conversations are a fascinating look inside of my head from an outside perspective of someone who's known me the longest, but your mileage may vary. What with downloads being as low as they have been the last few weeks, I'm starting to think that I can do whatever I want and it won't affect the tiny number of listeners I have anyway.

 

The conversation volume levels for this episode are all over the place - sorry about that. I've never done a show with someone else before. The music selection leans very heavily into the late '90s (surprise) but I think the show is worth listening to, even if you may not. It's up to you. It's also a long show, just under 3 hours, with probably 45 minutes of that me and Topher talking. Up to you.
