  • Brendan and The Bus: Episode 1 (Freenhand Goods)

    Brendan and the Bus (working title) is here—live, loose, and leather-clad from Freehand Goods in College Park! On this episode, Brendan O'Connor and Jon Busdeker embrace a new chapter following Brendan's departure from Bungalower. While the show's name may be up in the air, the laughs, local flavor, and Central Florida storytelling are as solid as ever.

    Tune in as the duo discuss Freehand Goods, a handmade leather shop with a craft beer twist, and dive into Orlando happenings like Waymo's autonomous vehicle pilot, the Downtown Development Board's art initiatives, and a controversial eviction in Winter Park. There's hot pizza talk featuring local favorites like Pizza Bruno, Ziggie's, and Prato, plus a passionate (and hilarious) dive into the etiquette of four-way stops, phrenology hats, and the world's shortest dog.

    Add in a dash of queer leather pride, a sprinkle of ghost-train cemetery tours, and the baby wails of a newborn podcast era, and you've got a wild ride through Orlando's quirkiest corners.
