Episode 2: Royce Peterson: I've Never Knowingly Played In Front Of A Nazi

Royce Peterson is the frontman for Tragedy, the world’s only heavy metal tribute to The Bee Gees (yes, you read that right). He talks to Jeff and Jesse about Nazi promoters, skinhead fans — and why you should always encore with “YMCA.” Hosted by Jeff Miller & Jesse Krakow Edited by Jesse Krakow Engineered by Eric Klein Original Music by Jesse Krakow

Episode 10: "Jay Cobb Anderson: I Have An Extensive History Of Questionable Harmonica Solos"

Fruition’s Jay Cobb Anderson has literally seen it all: he spent the early part of his musical journey busking on the streets, and with his acclaimed extra-harmony-laden newgrass/folk band, has made it all the way to Red Rocks. Along the way, he’s had his share of shitty shows, but it’s his best one: a 24 hour, late plane, multi-gig day, that may actually make you want to say “F—- This Gig!” Hosted by Jeff Miller & Jesse Krakow Original Music & Editing by Jesse Krakow Engineered by Eric Klein

Episode 9: Paul Lai: I Just Wanna Stab A White Guy In The Neck

This week, Paul Lai (of prog-rock lifers Upsilon Acrux) stops by to talk about the do's & don'ts of touring etiquette, being the only Asian-American in a sea of pretentious white dudes, and sharing the stage with Magma. Along the way he & Jesse discuss a time in Wisconsin when the two of them really didn't like each other, as well as what modern-day guitarists do not need to exist. It's a deep dive into the mind of a musician whose focus has never wavered, even during the most fuckable of gigs, and a must listen for those of you into polyrhythms.  Featuring the music of Upsilon Acrux Edited by Jesse Krakow Original Music by Jesse Krakow

Episode 8: Josh Epstein: Cheeseburger In Mongolia

As one-half of Jr. Jr. (FKA Dale Earnhardt Jr. Jr.), Josh Epstein has been at the forefront of indie-pop for over a decade: you've heard his songs at festivals, in movie trailers, and, likely, in the supermarket. But it's not all Seth Rogan movies and the cereal aisle: in a conversation with Jeff Miller and Jesse Krakow, Epstein recounts his worst gigs ever -- and if you've ever thought that "Cheeseburger In Paradise" couldn't bring you to tears, well, you haven't listened to this episode.
