Nice new discovery

Heard the slow cooked bears on an episode and subsequently binged all of them! I’m always looking for new stuff and listen to and being especially keen to hear how others navigate the music industry and thank you Phil for giving this show to us! Spirit boosting.

I’m finding some really good bits of information, but it’s also really well executed! Really enjoying it!
