On each episode of the show, I interview regular people about the music in their life. When I asked Sam Vestey if he would like to be on the podcast, he said he was interested, but wasn't sure if he'd be a good fit since he does not consider himself a musician. He is, however, an actor with a rich and diverse background in musical theater. This led to a great interview with some terrific insights.

On each episode of the show, I interview a regular person about the music in their life. This week, the episode is a little different. I had two guests, Tony Casa, lead singer of a band called Zoo Trippin’, and his friend Alex. In the interest of full disclosure, I did not realize that Alex was not a part of Zoo Trippin’ when he asked if he could be on Tony’s episode. This breakdown in communication led to a weird episode. I’ve done my best to edit it down to something worth listening to, but there are some weird and abrupt edits. I hope you enjoy the episode.

All music (besides the theme). is off of Zoo Trippin's most recent album, Purple, available on itunes and spotify.

On this week's episode, I interview Ben Ebel about community choirs, working with the OSU Marching Band, and his general love of music. Also, I give a little tribute to the late great Tom Petty.

Music on this week's episode all performed by Kendall Halman:

For Everyman by Jackson Brown

Mary Jane's Last Dance and Into the Great Wide Open by Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers

This week I interviewed Peter Stein, lead singer of a very unique band called Death Sludge. I met Peter back in 2008 at the Scarlet and Grey café when he was performing with the earliest version of the band. Over the years, he’s managed to develop his sound while still hanging on to some of the things that make Death Sludge unique.

The music I included in the episode was all from their upcoming E.P., but if you want to get a feel for how they sounded back in the day, check out Power Chord Song on their soundcloud. It's pretty awesome.

Just in time for Batman Day, Jared and I discuss the month's books including Secret Empire, Metal, Mister Miracle, and some boring Image book that Jared likes. Also, I have an incomprehensible rant that comes from my disliking All Star Superman.

By the way, if you discovered my podcast feed from Waiting Here for Everyman, welcome, this is something completely different.

This week I interviewed my Father in law Chuck Andreas. This was actually only the second interview I did for this project, so I was still getting the kinks out of it. Luckily, Chuck’s decades of experience playing music brought some great insights, even if the interview ended up a little shorter than usual.

Music in this episode:

For Everyman by Jackson Browne performed by Kendall Halman

Song For Sarah by Chuck Andreas

This week, I interviewed Joe Atticus Inch. In high school, Joe wanted to be a singer songwriter, but eventually decided to focus that energy into his poetry while remaining one of the biggest fans of music I’ve ever met.
