World's Longest Voicemail

Josh from Josh's Inbox came to the house to sit down with Drew and Alex and talk about the show. They discuss the starts of the show, the qualities of a good podcast, the craft of interviewing, they're takes on what's going on in Fort Wayne, Middle Waves, Drew's passion for Little League Baseball, there's some promo for Trubble Brewing, and how Fort Wayne can maintain it's current growth.

Well we start the episode off with a story about how without Nate's work in town there would be no World's Longest Voicemail. So there was no one better to have as a FINAL official guest than Mr. Metavari himself.   There's plenty of Metropolis/Symmetri talk. Loads of Twin Peaks monologing, and a bit of Lindsay Buckingham.   We got give Drew a shout out. Since Nate was our final guest, we worked hard to enhance this episode as much as possible. We hope it allows you to further enjoy our final guest and all the happenings contained within this one! Enjoy!

Ben and Derek came back. So basically where we left off with them 2 years ago, we just picked up right there. Enough talk, just listen.

To kick off our final episodes we invited guitar virtuouso and overall great dude Ian Skeans back to the show. Ian is in every project ever in Fort Wayne, just kidding, but it sometimes feels like it because he's that good. We talk about projects, guitar tech, his newest band Best Sleep, and the newest Star Wars film (SO SPOILER ALERT!). Give it a listen!

Ryan, John, and Charlie from March On, Comrade joined us to discuss the evolution of their sound, the work that went into the new record, the perfect ratio of gigging and more! Also, we include a short sneak peak of the record into the episode, Enjoy!

Music tech junkies rejoice! Jason Davis of Off the Cuff Sound and the band Streetlamps for Spotlights joined us. And right off the bat there's some serious talk on recording, the analog process, gear, etc. But fear not it's actually super interesting. And much to Alex's chagrin it dips into some serious discussion on Built to Spill, a seemingly Fort Wayne favorite. This one went long and with good reason, we had a blast digging into Jason's brain on a variety of musical touchstones. Enjoy!

Josh is back! He sat down with Lauren and Brent from Pyroscope entertainment. We certainly have always been curious on logistics of fire spinning and manipulation so it was pretty cool to hear first hand what goes into this awe-inspiring art form. Gibe it a listen!

Oh boy this was a fun one! The fellas from Three Cities joined us this week to talk stage presence, front man banter, Middle Waves, the bars in Fort Wayne and all things "Camaro Rock". And as a bonus, Alex FINALLY got to indulge in discussion of his hometown West Lafayette. Give it a listen!

Greetings! We had the pleasure of meeting up with Matt, Chris, and Phil from The Legendary Trainhoppers at their headquarters located in One Lucky Guitar. We were trested to a short acoustic set (which we recorded) and then got to pick their wonderful brains about their creative process, gigging, and the ins and outs of what makes a good song. Give it a listen!!

This was fun! The dudes from EARThought dropped by recently and we talked a plethora of fun stuff. Songwriting, Mars Volta, their recent Nintendo show, album recording, placed bets on the new Tool record, dueling guitars, etc. It's all in there. Solid show. Great dudes. Give it a listen! Enjoy!

Greetings fair citizens of the Intertubes! This week we had friend of the show Travis Bartlett join us. Travis is responsible for a really powerful photography project entitled Bare Fort Wayne. So logically we talk stigmas of nudity, nudity in art, bars, and BRUNCH! 

The wonderfully talented Sankofa joined us recently and brought a bag of top tier stories. Wondering what happened at Down the Line last year? Curious about hip hop happenings in Fort Wayne? Just looking to hear some seriously epic resumé quality self promotion? You can find all of that and more in this one! Enjoy!

Well, we're back! And we're kicking off Season 2 with Ryan and Ashton from Kill lé Kill. These guys were super candid about band mechanics and it was a lot of fun to pick their brains about naming a band, the gentrification of Detroit, identifying genres, and more. Show em some love on Facebook and Bandcamp! Enjoy!

Hey! Josh is back! This time he sat down with the good dudes from Slug Love who've been making quite the name for themselves lately in Fort Wayne. Give it a listen and give them some love!

Super stoked to give you this episode kidz! We sat down with St. Paul, Minnesota based band Weathered for a chat about all things emo music, faith in music, pocket scenes, touring stories, and a wonderful story of bad times in Philadelphia. Enjoy, and Goodnight Internet!

Josh's Inbox returns this week with another great interview! This week he has The Be Colony! These young musicians are putting out a lot of sound, dynamic tunes, and amazing instrumentation and they're just getting started. If you're a fan of really digging into the nitty gritty of rock n' roll music, this is an episode for you! Make sure you're at the Brass Rail this weekend for the album release show!

The Void Bois are BACK! Ben, George, Bob, and Bryce joined us to talk about George's dark (srsly) lyrics, Middle Waves, and their second EP. Along the way Alex pisses of Ben with some Neutral Milk Hotel talk and everyone throws out there Top 5 Albums list. There's a little bit for everyone here.

Hey look at that! Josh is back! Josh sat down with Brent Drake of Soiree recently to talk about local music, events in town, and what it means to be involved in the business of band representation. Brent's had his hand in some of the best shows that have been put on here in town lately so if you have a love of what's going on in the community lately, give this one a listen!

Howdy! We were happy to have Dwane Ferren (D Ferren) on the show this week. He has a new album coming out at the end of September called "Something Like Forever". We were lucky to receive early copies of it and we loved it front to back and we think you will too! We discussed the origins of his sound, stylistic shifts, and a mutual Wilco appreciation. It's a fun one! Have a listen!

He's back. Again. For the 5th time our best bud Ty joined us. We talked about some of our favorite records this year, the NBA, and of course talked at great length about the political and social climate in our country. Have at it! Goodnight Internet!
