In This Episode:

(Referral Link! You know the drill. Tell your friends; get a flash jingle about you or someone you love! Easy. Refer-O-Matic)

Justin is back in California. You know what that means?! Quarantine and Covid test tiiiiiiiiiiiiiime. John is in New York. OK, I want you to listen to how crazy I drive John in this episode. Listen to his voice. His job consists not only of finding meaning in my rants and having to sit through them, but also, in this episode particularly, how I never want to talk into the mic and how I never remember which episode is which. I am a major liability for John and the podcast. I have a foul mouth with a VERY annoying voice this week. I am uncouth and unhinged and easily triggered.

Okay, moving along. My Covid test was not comfortable, y'all. However, that does NOT mean you shouldn't go get one. It felt great to do it once I was done. (Have you gotten a flash jingle yet? Get one.) Okey doke. So. We were fortunate and blessed to be invited back to V&Ts Laundry Box to interview Vincent and re-listen to our first season of jingles before sending them off to be re-mastered for our season one album. Ohhhhhhh, it's coming, guys. It's a'comin'.

Vincent @LaundryLikeUs is such a great guy for so many reasons. You know him from our jingle for his laundry spot, but this episode we get to hang with him and hear about what is going on in his life and with his business. He continues to stay positive and dedicate his business to hospitality, positivity and creating a great and welcoming neighborhood laundry experience and atmosphere. BUT. Drumroll, please. He has ventured into podcasting! He is launching a podcast called THE RINSE. It will showcase people he has met as customers only to discover later that they are talented artists. There are instrumentalists, rappers, singers, poets, you name it. All local Harlem and NYC talent that has been walking the neighborhood in disguise. DAMN, WHY DIDN'T WE THINK OF THIS, JOHN?! It's an amazing idea for a podcast and YouTube channel. Thank you Vincent for having us and for all you do.

The song this week is too cool. It's TOO COOL. But, back to my earlier point: Listen to when I ask John if he likes the opening riff. His answer is: "Sure". I'll translate. "Sure. Now get your goddamned face facing the mic while you're playing. I'll like anything as long as you talk into the mic". HE GETS EVEN MORE PISSED LATER. I KNEW IT! I KNEW HE WANTED TO KILL ME THIS EPISODE.

This week is City Lights Theater Company in San Jose, California. Their executive artistic director is Lisa Malette, an awesome lady who we met working on the Leigh Weimers jingle. They give us "Thought-provoking plays and musicals, along with concerts showcasing hot local artists." Enjoy!!
