It's almost over - we promise! On this episode of SURFACE NOISE, we break down the full aftermath of Record Store Day 2026 — what time did we set the alarm for, and everything we witnessed in-store and in line on one of the biggest days in vinyl record collecting. Making history or rather HERstory, we are joined for the first time by Melinda Murphy to class up the joint, and we're talking real experiences from the ground: the hype, the surprises, the sellouts, and whether this year lived up to expectations. Did the drops deliver? Were the lines worth it? And what does it all say about the current state of the vinyl hobby?

What titles were the winners, losers, or surprises of RSD26? What did our members of the panel pick up - or strike out on? And what were our take away impressions from this year's "Super Bowl" of vinyl record collecting? 

Answers to those questions and so many more....coming a click away!

🎙️ SURFACE NOISE is the show of record, talking records — featuring real conversations from collectors across the Vinyl Community. 🆓
