Hell yes! I'm really stoked I'm getting this episode uploaded in time and even though it's kind of late at night, I really enjoyed editing this episode. Clipper and I had a real genuine conversation that covered a whole lot of ground and I'm just stoked we were able to make it happen. At a certain point Clipper mentions some writing he did while on…

Columbia and I go back quite a ways and it seems kind of absurd to me that it's taken this long to get him on the podcast, but as I say in this interview at a time that makes even less sense than now, no use crying over spilled milk. I've always appreciated Columbia's work ethic and his songwriting and performing chops. if you get a chance to catch…

I don't know if I say this often enough, but I'm so lucky to be able to have these conversations with such interesting people! Tobi is no different. We immediately got along and started to build a rapport and from there it grew into a beautiful conversation about the ups and downs of a life pursuing your showbiz dreams. She's a force and I think yo…

What a TREAT! The homie Christoph Jesus of Crazy & The Brains sat down with me to talk about everything new that's happened since we spoke last year, and it's really been a lot! They did a month long tour supporting Gogol Bordello, Recorded a new album, and are about to head out on a string of headlining shows to kick off 2023. Very exciting stuff …

I consider this conversation to be one of my favorites from the podcast. Not that I could choose a favorite, but Juan's story is exactly the sort you want to hear every so often to remember that fortune favors the bold, and whenever you say Yes to something you open yourself up to infinite possibilities, when you say no you are limiting your opport…

Happy New Year Dirtbags! Welcome to 2023, I hope that you're feeling good after the Holidays and you are feeling good going into a New Year. I'm doing my best not to spiral out and doing that by trying to keep busy, so getting the Podcast started back up seemed like a really good idea. This week we've got a really special episode with my friend Joh…

What a lucky thing that we get to have Brandon Decker on the podcast this week. Brandon and I have been in similar circles and treading similar ground for a while now and I'm so glad our paths finally crossed. He's an old soul with a great track record of making phenomenal music and working with folks from the Southwest that I really dig. If you'd …

I wasn't sure what to expect from this interview with Brook. We've met a few times playing shows together but I wasn't sure at all how a long form conversation between us would go and I gotta say it was one of the best I've had yet. Really felt like Brook and I share a similar path and longevity in being a troubadour and traveling alone. It was rea…

I had to take a couple weeks off so I could focus on some other projects that were on deadline, so I apologize for that. It's for really good reasons and I explain in the intro to the show so don't skip it! I'm so glad to be back to A Dirtbag's Guide and speaking with folks about their path to the now. This week I've got a really dope episode. Bori…

Had a chance to make a new friend in Rob Mellinger the other day. We had a solid conversation about a whole lot of shit and it got recorded and now it's on my podcast, YAY! Rob's on tour playing bass in Crazy & The Brains while they open a month long run with Gogo Bordello and based off the the photos I've seen on Instagram it looks like they're ha…

We've got ourselves a short one today Dirtbags. I was able to get Kit Regan on the line for a quick interview about what his life being a Tour Manager has been like. It was great to hear about life on the road from a different but adjacent experience to my own. I think any listener with interest in playing in or working with a touring band would en…

Had the pleasure of sitting down with Dan, Allan, and Jody of the bands Mrs. Henry and Chest Fever and we talked about all sorts of things music related. We get into the nitty-gritty of life on the road and a life dedicated to music. It was a really great time and I hope you all enjoy the episode!If you'd like to learn more about Chest Fever you ca…

I'm up until 2 am finishing this episode the day it's due and I have to go to work in like 6 hours, but HUZZAH! I did it! This week we've got the incredibly and diversely talented Jeanette D. Moses. She's a journalist, photographer, videographer, musician, songwriter, and just all around friendly and rad human. She was kind enough to sit down with …

After a week away I've got a really special episode with Nerdcore Rapper, Streamer, and author Mega Ran. We talk about him growing up in the suburbs of Philadelphia and where his love for video games comes from. We also talk about how he first started making beats, and it's always been somewhat tied to video games. He first gained attention through…

Goddamn Dirtbags this was a really fun episode. It was my first time meeting Christoph but it felt like we had a little bit of a musical kinship. I can’t tell i we’ve got kind of similar stories or if the pursuit of punk is just really relatable whether you grew up in a small mountain town or practically in the city that never sleeps. Christoph gre…

Welcome Dirtbags to this week's episode of A Dirtbag's Guide To Life On The Road. This one's a doozie. One of my dearest friends, Ian Dupeire, gave me a call so we could catch up and so he could update me on Phil The Band happenings, being a new dad, and forcing me to talk about myself probably more than your typical episode. Ian and I have known e…

Hey Dirtbags! Thanks again for listening. This Episode is with the lovely Elli Legerski. We went to school together in Utah and now she's a big time Producer out in Hollywood. She's great and we had a really solid time catching up and getting to know each other better. I hope you all enjoy the listening as much as we enjoyed the talking. If you’d l…

Hey Dirtbags! We're back this week with the super talented and genuine Matthew Paul Butler. We met at my last show of the 'Dumbest Sumbitch Around Tour' and right away I could tell he would be a great person to have on the podcast. Matthew had a super unique childhood experience living in Africa and even his lived experience since moving stateside …

After a month or so of being on hiatus while I was on tour playing shows and hiking/fishing with Banjo we are back at it trying to get you a new episode every other week, possibly every week if I can manage to stay on top of it. Sorry for disappearing without any notice, but that's just how it goes sometimes. This week's episode is one for the book…

I'm so excited for this episode. My homie Se Kou is a goddamn Gem, and I'm so grateful we got the opportunity to sit down and talk for a few hours. We've been due for a long catch-up and this was just what the Doctor ordered. If you’d like to support our show directly please head on over to Patreon. Buy a record, or a t-shirt, or a hoodie at Bandca…

Jeff and I met at a show in Brooklyn last Fall. The Space Force Deserters and I were playing and at some point I said "This next song is called 'Miami, AZ'" and Jeff yelled out "What the fuck do you know about Miami, AZ?!". After the set he and I started talking and it turned out we had a bunch of mutual friends in Arizona as well as here in Brookl…

When I first met Chris Reiter about 8 years ago I thought to myself, "Wow, this dude really loves Bicycles, New York City, and he smokes hella weed". Little did I know that I'd be living with him a few months after that and that we'd still be living together all these years later. I'd say we've both changed a lot since we met, but those three thing…

Shakespeare said something along the lines of "to thine own self be true" and according to my friend Kat Hamilton, that was pretty punk rock. While we mention musical theater (theatre?) a little bit in this episode, we don't really get to talking much about Old Shakey Bill. Sorry? What we do have here is a little over 2 hours of heartfelt and inspi…

Did anyone order a BONUS EPISODE?! No? Oh shit, sorry. I guess I should have double checked. My bad. Well, I recorded one anyway! For this episode I interview the homie Joe Kaplow. He's a phenomenal songwriter who currently calls Santa Cruz, CA his home. Joe asked me to open a show for him here in Brooklyn at Skinny Dennis next Monday May 9th and s…

I've been so super busy on The Moon & Miami tour that I haven't been able to record an interview for this week's podcast, so I decided that I'd do something different. I got folks to ask me questions about my life as a performer, about booking shows, playing music, etc via my Patreon page, Instagram, and Facebook. This week's episode is me answerin…

If you've heard my song "Stuck Out In Texas" on the album Salt Lake City: A Love Story then you've hear the awe-inspiring vocal stylings of my friend Josaleigh Pollett accompanying me on the choruses of that song. If that's the only time you've heard her sing, you are missing the fuck out. She's a brilliant songwriter with the voice of an angelic b…

Damn Y'all, I'm cutting it close on this one. Its 11:45PM the night before this assignment was due, and I'm getting it turned in on time. RIGHTEOUS! Lucky for all of you that this empisode (empanada + episode...i'm hungry) has my homie Carl M. Banks in it. We talk about how he likes to run egregiously long distances for fun as well as the small tow…

Thisssss is just what I needed. I was kinda feeling a little blue about the old dirtbag/creative lifestyle and all of it's trials and tribulations the week that David and I spoke, and he said so many things that really hit right close to where I needed them to hit. It was a great conversation with a really interesting dude. I dig his approach to li…

Helloooooo Dirtbags! I'm really excited about this episode and YOU SHOULD BE TOO! That's because my buddy Devin Burnam is my guest and he's just the best. Seriously, I've never met anyone that has spent time with Devin who doesn't like him. You're gonna love him. We talk about being an artist, how we pursue art and in some ways how our obsession wi…

Whoa baby! Babies?! Bbs! We've got a great one for you today. I sit down with Kristin Flammio of the very fun and talented Kristin Flammio & The Pretty Bitchin' and talk all sorts of things. She tells me about growing up in Massachusetts and listening to her rad dad's dad band practice in the house and how that prepared her for the time that Ghostf…

Journalist, Documentary Filmmaker, and all around smart and interesting person Olivia Heffernan and The Dirtbag King talk about her very non-typical childhood, the importance of language, and hope in a dystopian capitalist society. There's probably some leftist politics in there if you look hard enough, but probably not the "Socialists" your high s…

The Dirtbag King and The Rat Queen live mere miles away from each other in NYC's Borough of Brooklyn and so naturally it was only a matter of time before they held court and discussed Heavy Metal, Sobriety, Dogs, and more. I had such a great time hanging with my new friend Riley Pinkerton and finding out about her journey to becoming The Rat Queen.…

Hey Dirtbag's! We're Back! It's been a long time and I apologize for the delay, but life caught up with me and...well we talk about it a lot in this episode. This time around it's a little different, my good friend Mark Ricks (@mcbusstop) interviews me about my life on the road, why 2021 wasn't as bad as it seemed, and why 2022 is going to rule SO …

Hello my fellow Dirtbags and Dirtbaguettes, Dirtborgs, and Dirtbogs. I’m very excited for this week’s episode of A Dirtbag’s Guide because I got to interview none other than my friend, Joe Reinhart. While he’s pretty well known for being a pretty damn good friend, he’s probably better known for being the guitarist/producer of the bands Hop Along an…

On this week’s episode of A Dirtbag’s Guide, we have my longtime pal and fellow road warrior, Kirk Dath of Crook and the Bluff. Kirk and I met through a mutual friend back in my post-University of Utah days.

Hey Dirtbags! I have a really special episode for you all this week and that's because our guest is none other than James Munoz. Growing up in Arizona, I used to see James and his band, The Bled, play as often as I possibly could. I've probably seen them as many times, if not more, than any other band. I was so stoked when he agreed to talk with me…

This week we have fellow musician, David Quinn. Due to a technical issue, the beginning of our conversation got cut off, but it worked out because it jumps right in at the meat and potatoes of David's story. David talks about his journey from Chicago drummer to recording his own music with legendary musicians and his lifelong love of all things cow…

The older I get, the more I realize that the days you wind up considering to be absolutely pivotal in your life often don't seem like very big or important days at the time they're happening. I've also started to notice that those really big, important days are few. You'd be lucky to get two or three in a year. I look back on the day I met my buddy…

Happy Groundhog Day, Dirtbags! I kind of feel like we've been stuck in the same daily loop for a year now, so let's hope that little fucker don't see shit! This week, we have my friend, fellow New Yorker, and one of the most prolific musicians I know, Matt C. White. Matt pretty much always has his hands working on some form of musical escapade - th…

This week on A Dirtbag's Guide we have one of my longtime friends, Regan Ashton. Regan embodies the punk ethos as much, if not more than anyone I've ever met. Both his solo folk punk releases and his primary band, Problem Daughter, are forces to be reckoned with. So if you haven't already, please immediately go check out his music. Regan and I talk…

This week we’re back with an exciting episode of A Dirtbag’s Guide in which I was fortunate enough to seal with my friend, Jefferson White. Jeff is a Brooklyn-based actor and producer, who’ve I’d had the privilege of knowing for a couple of years now. Some things you might recognize him from including Yellowstone (Jimmy Hurdstrom), House of Cards (…

In addition to notebooks, nugs, and new music, 2021 also means a brand new season of A Dirtbag’s Guide! To kick off season 2, I bring you comedian, friend and fellow New Yorker, Derek Humphrey. Derek not only does spectacular standup, but also cohosts the Bushwick Bears podcast (it’s great - you should check it out). Tune in to hear our conversatio…

Before I met Carson Oliver, I didn’t know it was possible that a person could smoke that much weed and still be one of the most capable servers or bartenders I’ve ever worked with. I also didn’t know a person could have that much hair. In the six or so years since we met, he’s traded in both the pot habit and his lovely locks for a life in motion. …

After a short break, we're back with another DBG episode. This week, we have the multi-talented artist and seemingly superhuman creator, Bryant Eugene Vazquez. Bryant is a painter and musician who after a stint in Philly, recently returned back to his home state of Arizona - which is where we first met. Outside of reminiscing about music scenes fro…

Well, it’s Election Day, Dirtbags. If you or your friends need a distraction from the goings on over the next few days while we await the results, might I suggest tuning into the awesome conversation I recently had with Jordan Jensen. A hefty portion of the episode is about doing mushrooms, which I think in itself makes it worth the listen, but rea…

I talk with a new friend (who I might know better than some of my old friends), Alex Barone. Currently, she’s living in New Mexico working as a trail worker for the National Parks Service. Before she landed there, she spent a number of years on the road after a cross-country road trip at 19 that gave her a taste for the traveling life. We talk abou…
