Lyrically riffing to enlightenment

Christina and Michelle share a bond and mentality that cannot be described, it is a unique pleasure to join them every week to eavesdrop on their brilliant, witty and often poetic musings on a wide range of topics - from a united adoration for the work of Bret Easton Elis and his language to life improving mantras of self love these two dynamic souls never cease to make me smile and forget the trivial hang ups of life. Literature, music, cinematography, health, life on the road... the collective experiences of Christina and Michelle are shared openly, honestly and without ego. Party on Wayne!

Christina Nails It

Interviews with intensely interesting characters from the realms of rock, punk and metal. Christina is an engaging interviewer whose questions hit the mark. She cuts through the bull, puts her subjects at ease and gets some great stories and insights out of them. Even when the podcast features artists I either don't know or don't appreciate, Riffing With Christina makes for compulsive listening.
