The Brothers McCarthy record together from Madrid, Spain and host their first international guest Miguel Moreno (aka Michael Shakin Watermelon Brown)! Joe and Ryan talk to Miguel about the sweltering summer heat in Madrid, food and drink in Spain, his musical influences, his up-and-coming indie rock band (Soul Rubbers), musical influences, and Spanish swear words. To cap off the episode, the Brothers ask Miguel question submitted from Facebook followers and friends in their new (and hopefully recurring!) segment "Ask a Spaniard" and quiz him on the meaning of some American colloquialisms. Be sure to check out Miguel's band Soul Rubbers on the following sites: https://www.facebook.com/SoulRubbers/ https://soulrubbers.bandcamp.com/ https://soundcloud.com/soulrubberss https://twitter.com/SoulRubbers https://www.instagram.com/soulrubbers/
