Blader Geeks Podcasters

Mark takes a trip to New Philadelphia, Ohio for the 2015 James Short Memorial Session. This is my third year attending this event and this time we were joined by fellow blade pro-stars Alex Broskow, Chris Framer, Ben Schwab, Jon From, Don Bambrick as well as, a bunch of people from all over the place... more so then previous years. A huge thanks goes to to everyone who made the event possible and a even bigger thanks to Rod and Reb Short... Much love and See everyone next year!

Hey folks so this podcast was pretty hard to record due to the fact that it's pretty personal but it's something I feel like would help me recover from my depression and alcoholism. I have "suffered" from depression for over 12-13 years and its been something I have carried on my shoulders for too long. I made this to let bladers (or anyone for that fact) who have depression or know someone who blades and has been living with depression. Now, I didn't do this podcast for sympathy or nor is it a cry for help... I just have been getting to the point where I need to start talking about it cause it has had a huge effect on my life and finally got the courage to talk about it, since I have been embarrassed by it all this time. Thanks for listening to my problems (LOL) and I hope to continue on with the podcast soon enough. -Mark-

After a long hiatus, Mark Weaver gets off his lazy ass and makes a new podcast with the help of new guest Edward Hines (coming from Jacksonville, FL). Our conversation, that includes topics of Pow-Wow, M1, the "industry", and more, was unfortunately cut off abruptly due to my negligence of how much hard drive space I had on my laptop. Eddy and I will make a part 2 in the near future to give "closure" to you listeners. Until then, Thank you for listening to the first Episode of Season 2 of Blader Geeks Podcasters! -Mark-

I did a hour long mix back when I used to work at Woodward East back in '05 (I think...). I was into shredding over instrumental jazzy and dark "smoked-out" beats around this time period and I just re discovered it recently and figured I would share with everyone in the inter-web... I did get one of the most heart warming comments ever on anything audio post I've done...
