John Vanderslice from Tiny Telephone Studio
Episode 160 - I had the absolute pleasure of speaking to prolific indie rock musician and talented producer (Death Cab For Cutie, The Mountain Goats), John Vanderslice.

John O’Callaghan from The Maine
Episode 159 - This week we dive into a deep discussion with the frontman of the pop/rock band The Maine. It's a bit left of center guest but John loves the show and approached me about being on it. We discuss what it's like being a sensitive kid, perseverance and the positive side of fan fiction. It's a very introspective discussion that I wasn't expecting to have, but am glad we did.

Reba Meyers from Code Orange & Adventures
I had the pleasure of speaking to Reba from Code Orange & Adventures one afternoon about everything from getting along with dudes, the positive affects of creative tension and playing the flute. Reba is a very measured, thoughtful person so it was nice to have a very relaxed conversation. I am also always excited to have a female on the show to get their perspective on our independent music scene. A very insightful listen.

Eyal Levi from Unstoppable Recording Machine & Daath
One afternoon I hopped on the phone with an old friend, Eyal Levi of the band Daath and producer at Unstoppable Recording Machine (unstoppablerecordingmachine.com) to discuss hustle & hard work, being under the microscope and burn out. This is a great episode for people looking to work in the music industry, but don't know where to start. Eyal is a hardworking guy that you can learn a thing or two from.

Toby Morse from H20 & One Life, One Chance
We have Toby Morse on the show this week. He is the lead vocalist from the hardcore band H20 and owner of the non-profit organization One Life, One Chance.

Shane Told from Silverstein
This week I speak to my old friend and vocalist for the band Silverstein, Shane Told. For as long as I have known him, there were many things that I simply had no clue he experienced. We discuss managing expectations, his own identity and neglecting Canada at the beginning of the bands career. It's an incredibly open and honest discussion that I was glad Shane decided to have with me. THIS IS OUR FUNDRAISING MONTH.

Jim Adkins from Jimmy Eat World
This is it, my number one guest that I had written down close to three years ago when I started this podcast was the vocalist/guitarist from one of my favorite bands of all time, Jimmy Eat World. Jim and I spent over an our on the phone discussing many things including subverting expectations, stability and never having a "plan" for the band. I feel like we got to some places that most interviews with Jim don't necessarily get to so I hope you enjoy. THIS IS OUR FUNDRAISING MONTH.

Dallas Green from City And Colour/Alexisonfire/You+Me
This is a doozy. On the show this week is solo artist Dallas Green. He previously played in post-hardcore band Alexisonfire which is where I became really close with him. I've wanted Dallas on the show for quite some time but honestly, didn't really want to waste his time until this show grew organically. We discussed the idea of celebrity, anxiety and reflecting on his creative life. Highly personal and for me, deeply emotional. Thanks for listening. THIS IS OUR FUNDRAISING MONTH.
