Those who listen to the podcast regularly may notice that we have a deep affinity for all things Chicago hip hop. Last week we checked in with Chi-town's king of living Vic Spenser and this week we talk to Windy City producer Maker. If you have heard the theme song to the hit sitcom Abbott Elementary you have heard Makers work but he has been a fixture in the underground for a couple of decades now. He talked to us about getting this huge beat placement as well as his approach to creating immaculate remixes.

The three bad brothers that you know so well (Nate LeBlanc, Demone Carter, and David Ma) start off the episode by talking about the brilliant new record King Cobra from Baltimore-based producer/emcee duo Infinity Knives & Brian Ennals. Hip Hop and wine connoisseur David Ma also recaps his experience at the Blue Note Festival in Napa, CA.
