The holidays are upon us and that can only mean one thing...people are stressed out. Well, so are our faithful hosts and they talk about it. The gang is with you and we'll all get through this together. Oh, and lots of movie talk! We're back!

This is one of those fun interviews where you can hear 2 people becoming friends in real time. Jim Howes is an incredible musician & artist. As a member of a collective of musicians running the roads between Chicago & Toledo, Jim and our dear ol' host have lots of things and friends in common. The conversation runs the gamut from Samiam love to sobriety to reverence for Toledo's one true rock star, Matt Truman. Expect Jim to be back because the surface was barely scratched.

Oscar Bait's new record is available now from Little Elephant.

TW: Discussions on mental health, suicide The purpose of this show was to give you a glimpse into our life and always be open & transparent with what our family is going through. With that spirit in mind, Cash is here to tell you his story about his recent stay in a crisis care unit. Mental health is hard to navigate, particularly in a country like ours that does not take it seriously. We hope you leave this conversation knowing you matter, you are loved, and you belong here. We love you guys.

HELP IS AVAILABLE: If you’re thinking about suicide, are worried about a friend or loved one, or would like emotional support, the Lifeline network is available 24/7 across the United States at 1-800-273-8255.

We're very excited to be sharing this episode with everyone. Cross My Heart's emergence in late 90's post-hardcore/emo scene was a part of wave of incredible bands that would shape punk, indie, and hardcore over the next 2 decades. As a part of the powerhouse Deep Elm Records roster, Cross My Heart would carve a path that made them beloved to fans the world over. Their 2 LP's were recently reissued via Steadfast Records in gorgeous vinyl packages. Enjoy this in depth conversation with vocalist/guitarist Ryan Shelkett on life after music and what has brought him back to the fold. A really wonderful conversation that we're so excited to bring to you.
