100 Words Or Less: The Podcast

I had the pleasure of speaking to Reba from Code Orange & Adventures one afternoon about everything from getting along with dudes, the positive affects of creative tension and playing the flute. Reba is a very measured, thoughtful person so it was nice to have a very relaxed conversation. I am also always excited to have a female on the show to get their perspective on our independent music scene. A very insightful listen. MONTHLY DONATIONONE TIME DONATION Learn more about your ad-choices at https://www.iheartpodcastnetwork.comSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

One afternoon I hopped on the phone with an old friend, Eyal Levi of the band Daath and producer at Unstoppable Recording Machine (unstoppablerecordingmachine.com) to discuss hustle & hard work, being under the microscope and burn out. This is a great episode for people looking to work in the music industry, but don't know where to start. Eyal is a hardworking guy that you can learn a thing or two from.

Episode 156 - Happy 3 Year Anniversary to the show! Thanks for hanging out on this awesome journey. I couldn't be more happy with how things have developed with the show. You are all beautiful. Nick Steinhardt plays guitar in the band Touche Amore as well as handling all of the visuals attached to his band and many other bands (Balance and Composure, Deafheaven). We had a cup of coffee in his apartment and discussed the creative process, first band experiences and fashion choices.

We have Toby Morse on the show this week. He is the lead vocalist from the hardcore band H20 and owner of the non-profit organization One Life, One Chance. We get very in depth with keeping a bands legacy intact, positivity and how important family is to him. It's a very revealing and often humorous chat with this gregarious front man.

This week I speak to my old friend and vocalist for the band Silverstein, Shane Told. For as long as I have known him, there were many things that I simply had no clue he experienced. We discuss managing expectations, his own identity and neglecting Canada at the beginning of the bands career. It's an incredibly open and honest discussion that I was glad Shane decided to have with me. THIS IS OUR FUNDRAISING MONTH.

This is it, my number one guest that I had written down close to three years ago when I started this podcast was the vocalist/guitarist from one of my favorite bands of all time, Jimmy Eat World. Jim and I spent over an our on the phone discussing many things including subverting expectations, stability and never having a "plan" for the band. I feel like we got to some places that most interviews with Jim don't necessarily get to so I hope you enjoy. THIS IS OUR FUNDRAISING MONTH.

This is a doozy. On the show this week is solo artist Dallas Green. He previously played in post-hardcore band Alexisonfire which is where I became really close with him. I've wanted Dallas on the show for quite some time but honestly, didn't really want to waste his time until this show grew organically. We discussed the idea of celebrity, anxiety and reflecting on his creative life. Highly personal and for me, deeply emotional. Thanks for listening. THIS IS OUR FUNDRAISING MONTH.

This week on the show is Scott Shriner who is the bassist of the rock band Weezer. Scott was kind enough to invite me over to his house to discuss his time in the marines, being open to change and how hard he had to work for years to randomly land where he is at now. Not to mention his time on the road with Vanilla Ice...yep, that one. He lends some amazing insight on what it takes to "make it" as a musician. THIS IS OUR FUNDRAISING MONTH.

This week I have the guitarist from Saosin, Beau Burchell on the show. He's one of my closest friends and we speak frankly about performing live, being an "asshole" and focusing on the creative process above all. It's a very reflective and open conversation about ego, attention and identity.  Learn more about your ad-choices at https://www.iheartpodcastnetwork.comSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Hardcore. Punk. Cancer. One of these things is not like the other. Nathan Gluck I've known for awhile and his band Ensign was monumentally important to me in my formative years of going to shows. Recently, he was diagnosed with stomach cancer and the hardcore community chipped in and raised over $100,000 for his medical expenses. It's a really incredible story and Nate was extremely candid about his time in Ensign and the fight he has going on currently. Very happy to bring this special episode to you.  Learn more about your ad-choices at https://www.iheartpodcastnetwork.comSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
