Send us a text [https://www.buzzsprout.com/twilio/text_messages/2470384/open_sms] This week on Flobble Gobble: The Vodkast, we’re joined by Dan Conn — developer, ex-DJ, marathon runner, and man with a very specific grudge against most pulses (with notable exceptions for chickpeas and lentils). We get into: 🎧 What it’s like to move from mixing clubs to coding clean 👟 How marathon training rewires your brain (and your playlists) 🎵 His lifelong connection to Jam & Spoon – Odyssey to Anyoona 🥃 Why the Old Fashioned is the only drink that makes sense 🫘 And his war on beans: reasoned, relentless, and weirdly convincing Dan’s got calm energy, trance wisdom, and absolutely no time for your black-eyed peas. This one’s a low-frequency roller with a heavy emotional BPM. #FlobbleGobble [https://www.youtube.com/hashtag/flobblegobble] #DanConn [https://www.youtube.com/hashtag/danconn] #NoBeansJustBeats [https://www.youtube.com/hashtag/nobeansjustbeats] #MarathonMindset [https://www.youtube.com/hashtag/marathonmindset] #DJToDev [https://www.youtube.com/hashtag/djtodev] #OldFashionedForever [https://www.youtube.com/hashtag/oldfashionedforever] #JamAndSpoon [https://www.youtube.com/hashtag/jamandspoon] #TranceTales [https://www.youtube.com/hashtag/trancetales] #TheVodcast [https://www.youtube.com/hashtag/thevodcast] #SipHappens [https://www.youtube.com/hashtag/siphappens] Support the show [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2470384/support]
