Episode 94 with Rockin' Ryan of The Hexxers
Jan 2800:49:59Tap to summarizeRecorded last summer at The Bamboo Club in Long Beach, we sat down over tiki drinks just hours before Ryan hit the stage at Alex's Bar. We talk Ryan's origins, his love of garage music, and even the real-world cost of a shrunken head (yep… he knows a guy). We were also joined by Jessica, Ryan's girlfriend, manager, and nurse, who jumped into the conversation and added her own perspective throughout the episode.

Episode 93 With Djordje Stijepovic aka Bullfiddlecat
Dec 1201:42:37Tap to summarizeIn Episode 93, we sit down in person with Djordje Stijepovic, aka BullFiddleCat. Djordje is the upright bass player for Tiger Army, Molotov, Drake Bell, and countless others, along with his own solo project. Frank Quaranted, George, and I had an incredible conversation with Djordje about growing up in Serbia in the 1980s, starting a rockabilly band in fifth grade, and his journey to the United States, where he went on to play with the who's who of the rockabilly world. We also talk music, classic films, and even sample some Serbian liquor he brought along. Great vibes, great stories — both on and off the mic.
