I haven't known Tim from Fools Brew for very long, but he and I could talk for days. Hes quite the conversationalist. The convo starts with a story about tape on his nipples. Are you really gonna turn down listening to this after reading that? His band Fools Brew just released a new EP entitled "The Reckoning." We talk about taped nips, his music origins, the scene and his first drum set. Thanks for listening!

Play along at home for the first episode of Movie Show Down! Scott Dlhy and Mike Marquardt are two close friends of mine who really love movies. When I first told them that I was doing a podcast, they both said: "if you ever have a movie edition let me know." So here it is. As always, thanks for listening!

Sorry for the week off! I was on tour. I'm back now, I got together with Faith Porlier, the rockabilly queen. Shes also my girlfriend. I know what youre thinking. How did this fat ass get this girl? I ask myself the same question everyday. Regardless of that, she is a super talented chick with a roaring voice and killer bands backing her up. We talk about where her love for rockabilly began, what its like being in a band with her dad and me shitting my pants. Enjoy!

After a ridiculous intro to the show I get together with Jimmy! Jimmy is one of the key components of the music scene at Uptown in Westmont, IL. He has an undying passion for music and the local scene. We talk about the Uptown, his current project and old band experiences. If it weren't for this dude I would have never found out what my favorite venue was!

God damn, Jason can TALK. We sat down after practice this past weekend and drank some beer. Hes an easy guest because I dont have to say much. He is the Singer of The Run Around, the band in which I recently joined less than a year ago. We talk about the bands history, college drinking, Weezer and whooooole lot of other things. Sorry this one was late. Thanks for listening!

I went to Jims place and hung out with him and his roommate. Jim is a super quiet guy when you talk to him, but doesnt hold anything back while singing.
