Fritter Hollow begins with two guys in a small room trying to figure out whether they accidentally started a podcast, a promotions company, a community arts thing, or some weird little machine for getting unfinished ideas moving. Derek and Dan talk through fly on the wall recordings, local events, weird speakers, singer songwriters, websites, podcast hosting, AI slop, liability, legacy, and the wisdom of starting before the map is finished. It’s loose, funny, a little reckless, and probably the right amount of underprepared. For now, the plan is simple: start walking and see what the road turns into.
