Wow

I really feel like I’ve stumbled into a late night conversation with some of my favorite artists. The honesty that comes out in these talks is rare. Plus it has opened me up to so much great music. Thank you!

Great interview with Matt Butler

Really enjoyed this interview and the topic. Thought provoking and entertaining. Hearing Matt’s discovery of Hendrix’s Are You Experienced as a young and short teenager and grappling with the meaning was hilarious.
