Episode 26: ‘Nerdery Grab Bag’ segment, corporate takeover of independent venues, and more!

Episode 26 is a special one for us, as the 3 of us are recording from the same location for the first time since the pod started. Nate is back visiting the east coast, so we take full advantage of it. For the main segment we dig into 25 years of Nate’s music nerdery collection (merch, promo items, posters, autographs, etc). We’re talking two 35 gallon bins filled with the most obscure and rare music nerdery. We blindly pull items from the bins and react to them. Other setlist items include: Papa roach live streaming their album recording process - good idea or no? — and a reaction to an NPR article about the inevitable corporate takeover of independent music venues.
