Trying something new, this was my first ever "live" podcast recording. Recorded at the Suburbia venue in Brooklyn, NY and featuring mini-interviews with the residents of the house space, MA/NY's The Saddest Landscape (Topshelf Records), PA/FL's Direct Effect (Tiny Engines), and New Jersey's Capacities. Thanks to everyone involved for putting up with my unprofessional dorkiness. Recorded on May 22nd, 2014.Short episode, runs at about 30+ minutes or so. Bear with me, it was the first live recording and I didn't want to overdo it. Also, aired completely unedited, another first. PLAYLISTScreeching Weasel - "Hey Suburbia"Living Room - "Red Saints"The Saddest Landscape - "This Heals Nothing"Direct Effect - "Solar Flare"Capacities - "The Unexamined Life"

This episode I interviewed my buddy Josh Mikel, from Atlanta, GA. Josh is a former drummer for a few bands (namely Look Mexico). He is now an actor working his way through small roles and getting into various films, TV shows and commercials. He's also a graphic designer who puts out work under the moniker Sharkguts Design, and a video producer who most recently has directed videos for Against Me! Josh and I talked about his beginnings into acting, his band days, his design experience (fun fact: he is the creator of the GIR manta ray logo you're probably staring at right now, or above this text paragraph), and working with AM!/Laura Jane Grace, among other things. Thanks, Josh! PLAYLIST:Restorations - "New/Old"Chris Stowe - "I Only Miss Her When I'm Drinking"Outta Gas - "Every Day"Placeholder - "Don't Look Back"Look Mexico - "Don't You Dare"Birthday Candles - "Wishes"
