    The first episode back! Jake Spencer is a hilarious and talented Vancouver comic making a move to Bristol in early February.

    24 Interview with Mike St. Jean

    I sat down with the unfairly-talented multi-instrumentalist, “Two Turntables and A” Mike St. Jean to talk about the value and re-purposing of art, music, meditation and more. Oh, and taquitos, of course. He’s a very heady and cool dude and I hope you enjoy it. I apologize for being a bit more wooden than usual;…

  • 09 Interview with Devin Townsend

    09 Interview with Devin Townsend

    My fanboyishness paid off in the form of an interview with metal god, Devin Townsend. He very graciously came to my home and sat with a mediocre comic, podcast host and interviewer to talk music, comedy, death, the human condition, gear, future plans, and much more. It was a pleasure and he is a great…

  • An Interview with Kelly Carlin

    An Interview with Kelly Carlin

    In her own words, “ Kelly Carlin is a thinker, writer, talker and doodler. She’s funny, serious, silly and deep. Sometimes she wishes she were Carol Burnett, other days it’s Patti Smith, but mostly it’s Oprah Winfrey. It’s complicated.” She is also a performer and story-teller based in LA, and as you might have guessed,…

  • An Interview with Grace Savage

    A four-time UK champion beatboxer, Grace Savage recently released her debut EP “Savage Grace,” featuring her incredible vocals, electronics, and, well…. Beatboxing. Self-effacing and thoughtful, Grace makes time in her busy schedule to work with children with special needs and teaches them how to beatbox. I’ve said ‘beatbox’ entirely too many times. It was an…
