The Modern Vinyl podcast is back for its second episode and this week we're talking about the rising prices of soundtrack releases, along with tackling some weekly news highlights and taking reader questions. Stick around for me possibly mispronouncing some things and for the story about how I picked up Jimmy Eat World's Futures for $20.

Here's the breakdown for episode 2:

In honor of Record Store Day and the immense amount of support offered up by the MV readers (seriously, we broke every traffic record we had this past week), we're proud to unveil  "The MV Podcast," another new feature I hope can be part of our continuing push to make Modern Vinyl a true music destination for music fans all over the web. We've achieved some pretty great growth throughout 2014 and because of that support, I felt like we could finally take this on and put the resources toward a quality product.

That being said, we're still working into a groove here, so stick with us while me and James (my co-host) iron out a few of the details. Expect different guests, interviews, music from all kinds of awesome labels and what I'm sure will be an evolving format in the future. Anyways, thank you so much for the support and here's the breakdown for the first episode:
