In episode 128 the hosts are joined by Brett" Scoop" Blanden who has been the front-of-house engineer for Lady A over the last 11 years. Scoop talks about his progression of consoles with Lady A and how he manages a 96 input show. They also discuss how Scoop got his start as well as how he turned his house into a recording studio, virtual concert space, and rehearsal space. They also had to ask "how did you get the name Scoop", and it's a funny story like most nicknames.
