ITN 17 | Fallow Land’s “Slow Down, Rockstar” Release Show (Ann Arbor, MI)



Recorded on site at the Blind Pig! If you make it all the way through this one, you’re a real fan and a true friend of the podcast. There’s so much going on in this episode! I didn’t bother editing because I think it would be better to capture the chaos of podcasting at a packed live show. I had too many guests on to count, and ironically, barely any Fallow Land members. But the show was fun! I enjoyed the live performances from Ness Lake, Parkway & Columbia, Secret Grief, and Fallow Land of course. They all killed it. Thanks to everyone who came out and jumped on the guest mic with me! And a special thanks to Nick Caldwell for not saying anything on air that would cause me to lose half my audience immediately. Hope you guys enjoy! Air date: 7/29/2019.


ITN 16 | Pat Ray of Seaholm/Koopa Kid/Outta This World Booking/Domino’s Pizza (Ann Arbor, MI)



WARNING: this episode contains toxic levels of tomfoolery and should not be consumed by children or the elderly. If you are pregnant or planning to become pregnant, consult with your doctor before listening to this episode. Pat Ray is a silly goose, a walking meme, and a shockingly dedicated member of the DIY music community. We talked about his bands, his booking group, and their origin stories. We also talked a little bit about touring shits and driverless pizza delivery vehicles. Please enjoy responsibly. Air date: 7/22/2019.


ITN 15 | No Fun Club (Ann Arbor, MI)



Three quarters of No Fun Club came and sat in my room and talked to me about all kinds of stuff, none of which was fun. Colin got sassy, Pat got nasty, and I discovered that Jay Cob is actually Jake Cob in real life. Are any of these people who they say they are? Seems questionable. Anyway, we eventually got to discussing their music and what inspired it, as well as their plans for the future, if I remember correctly. This was a fun one to record, so I hope you all have fun listening. Air date: 7/15/2019.


ITN 14 | Tijuana Taxi (Toronto, ON, CAN)



Can you believe it? Invite The Neighbors is now INTER-FUCKIN-NATIONAL! Chilled with Toronto noise rock quartet Tijuana Taxi and talked about their first trip to the U.S. as a band, getting taxed and detained at the border, as well as some obligatory Canadian stereotypes (I’m sawry!). If you’re from Canada and this is your first time listening to the podcast, welcome! Oh, and sorry for what I said about Windsor, I’m sure they’re trying real hard over there on the Maple Leaf side of the Detroit River. Thanks for listening, eh? Air date: 7/8/2019.


ITN 13 | Dogleg (Ann Arbor, MI)



Talked with Chase and Alex from Dogleg about recording their first two EPs, playing Super Smash Bros Melee at their merch table and how Chase is one of the top ranked players of a game that came out in the early 2000s and has never lost. We also talked about getting nervous before gigs and what goes into their high energy live shows. This was a fun conversation and if you stick around to the end, you can hear their song Star 67, which is a fuckin bonafide JAM off their most recent EP, Remember Alderaan. Thanks for listening as always, and please rate/review subscribe to the show! Air date: 7/1/2019.


ITN 12 | Ship & Sail’s “Hymnal EP” Deep Dive (Ann Arbor, MI)



Hung out with Colin from Ship & Sail (AGAIN UGH) to do a special deep dive into his new EP, Hymnal. We go track by track and discuss what each song means to Colin, as well as the theme of the EP as a whole including artwork, lyrics, etc. Hymnal is streaming now so check out Ship & Sail’s pages for links, and I’m sure it’s on Spotify. Thanks for listening! Air date: 6/28/2019.


ITN 11 | Swordfest Presented by the Summit Shack (Bowling Green, OH)

Swordfest was held at Howard’s Club H in Bowling Green and featured Pool Kids (FL), Mover Shaker (MI), Dogleg (MI), American Spirits (OH), Antighost (MI), Silver Age (MI), Jail Socks (NC), Vermont (OH), Equipment (OH). I also talked with L.E.A.D. DIY, a non-profit focused on safe lighting at shows for epilepsy awareness, the organizer of Capo Fest in IL, and Marky Mark Bosch himself from Church Street Booking and Stop Watch.

ITN 10 | The Average (Bel Air, MD)



The Average from Bel Air, MD came and bought a pair of my Yeezys from me after talking about their tours, their musical influences, their favorite places to play, and whether it’s okay to still listen to Brand New. I hope you guys enjoy the episode! Thanks to my regular listeners and please rate/review/subscribe to the podcast if you haven’t already. Air date: 6/24/2019.


ITN 9 | Pretoria/Anonymous Phone Call (Grand Rapids, MI)



Chilled fat with the strapping lads of Grand Rapids’ finest, Pretoria and Anonymous Phone Call. We didn’t solve every world issue during this episode, but we came damn close. Stick around til the end to hear TWO (count ’em) TWO acoustic performances! And per usual, perk your ears up at the beginning for upcoming show announcements from Outta This World Booking and Church Street Booking. Rate/review/subscribe/all that jazz. Thanks for listening! Air date: 6/17/2019.
