This episode we welcome a very special V.I.P guest, in Benjamin Christensen from Hat Club. Also joined by O.G. diehard A's fan, Jeremy Cooper. Together we talk old school Bay Area baseball. Reminiscing on The Oakland Coliseum before Mount Davis. I quiz the fellas on A's and Indiana Pacers trivia before jumping into a discussion on our favorite old school arcade games. If you're inclined to enjoy a beverage as you consume this podcast I suggest choosing Mickey's, one of Benjamin's go-to brews. Please like, subscribe and leave a comment or review. Cheers.

Joined this episode by first timers Varian and Clint we dip into the world of hot sauces and Kansas City BBQ. We discuss how we all met eachother through the Sneaker History community and tell stories of our favorite shoe cops. We then end with a passionate exploration of Clint's discovery and love for Jazz. One of my favorite recordings, please enjoy.

With the pandemic looming and very few episodes being pumped out, this may be the end. In person that is. This is the last episode of The Industry Special in studio 2.0. I am joined by 2 of my oldest friends, Nate and Ju. Having spent very little time with anybody outside of family we get HAMMERED drunk and talk about everything. We start off with Nate teaching us about a new drinking technique he learned called "tequila yoga". A quick tribute to the late great Alex Trebek. The most recent happenings with COVID-19, traveling in a pandemic and the vaccine. After multiple bathroom breaks by the guests drunkness ensues and we talk about rapper murders, sports with COVID, and a super long old-man rant about the good ol days of Playstation 2. Almost slurring for 3 hours we finish up the podcast talking about getting into the tech industry as black men, employer's reaction to black employees during the protests of the summer and then Ju cries about not being in Nate's wedding. See you in 2021, Happy Holidays.

After a quarantine hiatus The Industry Special returns with the crew of geminis. Joined by Dame and Mike for pt.2 of Gemini Season Has Returned we celebrate Mac Dre Day. Since 4 months have passed since the last podcast we catch everybody up on quarantine life and Mike comes up with his own segment (People Who Need Their Ass Whooped).

*SPOILER ALERT*

After and a Daddy-Daughter Day at the movies, I bring in the kids for episode 35 to discuss Sonic The Hedgehog. Their thoughts on Sonic and Jim Carrey as well discussion crocs and the United States presidency. A very wholesome version of The Industry Special, no Fernet this time.

* SEVERE AUDIO GLITCHING*

I do apologize.

In the return episode of The Industry Special Podcast we talk about the passing of NBA star Kobe Bryant. We take a sharp turn to discuss the Wuhan Coronavirus and its possible origins. Also tapping into a current poll about social media and loneliness. White Claws and Fernet on deck, The Industry Special is back with a new home.

This episode we invite Tina and Beatrice on with over 40 years work experience at The Warfield. We discuss history over 4 decades long from the venue with crazy stories and wild shows. A$AP Rocky and Trump, pigs becoming watermelons, a judge taping a defendant's mouth shut, and 12 CDs for a penny. We discuss all that and more on Industry Special episode 33.

Joined by the seemingly inseparable duo of Rachael & Andre. For episode 32 we discuss how we all know each other from some little bar nobody has ever heard of. We get serious discussing work related issues from getting too close to coworkers and being a creative individual in the corporate world. From there we discuss our hypothetical last meals and preferences when it comes to chicken wings. Fernetabout this one being 1:42 long. Oops, enjoy.

Its a celebration. Almost a year since The Industry Special's first episode we celebrate all things Gemini. Joined by fellow Geminis ,Mike and Dame we run down a list of greatest and worst geminis in history. Special shout out to McLovin. We also discuss raccoon dogs and how they came to be. We end this episode discussing digital pets with the return of the 90s nostalgic toy the Tamagotchi.
