Oblivious Maximus - Podcast

We duck back to December for this week’s episode. Fresh from Flatspot/Last Ride World, we chat through a massive week of shows here in Melbourne that had just wrapped up. We cut to chats IN THE FIELD with Joel Martorana (Peace Ritual) about his art show Grotto (at the Exhibition!) then at Flatspot/Last Ride World with Jackson & Jacob from The Chain, Photographer Jack Rudder/Ruddzy, and Photographer Jake Stanton AKA truunx1.

Our end of year knock off live pod! We chat our best gigs of the year and do a fave segment from our last live pod alt fit pic, suss the video for this one.

Back to studio episodes from next week. The Audio on this one is a bit wack, but we had a blast, make sure you are at the next one in PERSON. We're going to be bringing these interstate this year.
