Today, host and celery adversary, Russ Stone, sits down with Timo Epping and Gabriel Patrascu of Rufusking, a passionate and exciting project based in the Netherlands, affectionately self-described as "a band of friends."

Timo and Gabriel met in their high school band and have been playing music together since. Joined by Jan Dekker on bass and Sander Stolk on drums in 2017, the rock group formally came together under the name Rufusking after a billing typo at their first gig. Lately, the four have been focusing on virtual performances in addition to filling their musical catalogue with awesome, danceable material inspired by all of life's potential misadventures-- including, but not limited to, food pirates.

On this episode, Russ talks with 50% of the band about biking in the Netherlands, rocking hard in a high school band, and collaborating during lockdown. Plus, Timo and Gabriel discuss their latest track, "Poor Mister Lee", and the excellent story behind the tune (story time with Timo!).

Plus, a quick Dutch lesson!
