This week I welcome Jeff Plate, drummer for the iconic Trans-Siberian Orchestra, coming to Duluth with two shows on December 11 at Gas South Arena. We chat about the origins of TSO, touring, and his favorite menu item at our shared hometown pizza shop (Pudgie's)

Also joining me is local author, comedian Marshall Chiles to talk about the Laughing Skull Comedy Festival. PLUS: We chat about social media, parenthood, the state of comedy and more. STICK AROUND for the bonus content: A longer cut of our conversation.
