    Alt Photographer CHRISTAAN FELBER | Mexico underground, Bon Jovi tryouts, weirdest photo projects, world travel

    Few photographers go as deep and as weird as NYC-based photographer Christaan Felber. The man really takes some risks and goes where few are willing to go.

Great POD

Thank you for flushing the toilet of my mind. You’re helping me identify some of my shortcomings and positive resolve. Chirp, Starr ()ut

Life and Music with Humor thrown in (not everything has to be a funeral)

Brett does an excellent job of recounting his many adventures of touring all over the world in the last eight years while bringing on guests, many that have decades of more experience in the music world, to tell unique stories that I have not heard in other interviews. Brett uses the “branches on a tree” style of interviewing where it is more like a conversation and podcast flows organically from topic to topic between off the cuff riffing and the standard “Where did you get started?” hits. A definite Wisconsin bent runs through the episodes with many musicians known in that region, not famous outside it, which leads to exposure to artists that could become your next favorite.
