Huge shout out to rick for joining me on the show! I had a great time sitting down to record this episode and it’s great to be able to share it with you. We shared some stories, some thoughts and opinions and over all had an enjoyable afternoon, even after my bike tire exploded the morning of recording. Thanks to everyone for listening!

HDTF#040 – Jocelyn ‘Evillynn’ Eckhout

Hello everybody! I’m back with a fresh episode for you today with another FW dance scene veteran. Jocelyn and I met through the East Ende Eclectic and it was great to sit down and hear about her experiences in and out of the FW scene. This is a world I know very little about and having the chance to learn more about it is so cool.

HDTF#039 – Lucas B. Gerke

Hey folks! This is a real good one for you today. My good friend Lucas Gerke reached out to me about wanting to promote the book he wrote and I immediately bought a copy and asked when he could come be on the show. Lucas has a straight shot to my funny bone and always has. Funny how some things don’t change. We had a great time recording this episode and I hope you enjoy giving it a listen. Be sure to check out the links below to buy a copy of ‘Internal Damage’ or to listen to the other podcast he recorded. I’m almost done reading the book!

HDTF#038 – Rachelle Reinking

For this episode I got to sit down with a Fort Wayne powerhouse of creativity. A true tour de force in the Fort. Rachelle is the communications director for the Arts United, she is the director of the Fort Wayne Bombshells, she is an active member in the East Ende Eclectic and those are just the highlights. She’s also a genuinely good hearted person who walks her dogs through the neighborhood. The Saturday after this posts the Bombshells have a show which you should definitely get tickets to. I’ll be there! Check out other links to keep up with what Rachelle is doing in and for the community.

HDTF#037 – K. Edward Smith

Everybody help me give a warm welcome back to K. Edward Smith, also known as Kyle. We recorded this episode on the day his album ‘Secondhand Something’ came out and the release show that evening is one I’m gonna remember. There’s a lot of songs on this album I’ve been able to hear him play live over the last year and it’s awesome to see them done right and released to the world. So please check out the links to his pages below. Buy the digital album. He actually told me downloads are free on Bandcamp. Maybe pick up a vinyl. I did. Totally worth it. As always, thanks for listening! K. Edward Smith Website [https://kedwardsmith.com] K. Edward Smith on Bandcamp [http://kedwardsmith.bandcamp.com] Stream K.
