These two are hardcore road hounds and the sweetest people you'll ever meet. Very grateful to have had them on the podcast and to be able to call them my friends! Listen…

Hey there dirtbags! I'm excited for you all to hear this interview with Paisley Fields. Paisley grew up in a small town in Iowa and after finishing college moved to NYC. He’s had a remarkable journey in music and tells me about the first time he performed in college, about forming a band and touring in Japan, and like we usually do on A Dirtbag’s G…

Sorry this episode is a day late, but I'm making it up to you by making this episode a full new episode and not a ReAir even though it was supposed to be a ReAir week! This episdoe RULES because it's with my homie Elise Okusami the heart and brain behind the band Oceanator. They have a new record "Everything Is Love And Death" out now on Polyvinyl …

This episode was super fun. From the first time I got to see Small play I knew I wanted to have each member of that band on this podcast, and now I'm on my Pokemonesque journey of collecting them all. Thanks so much to Samm for being on my podcast and talking about music and life and tour and what not. Be sure to give Small a follow on Instagram: @…

Thanks as usual for tuning in to this episode of A Dirtbag's Guide To Life on The Road. This episode is a conversation with my pal Jefferson White that took place back in late 2020 and it was such a fun conversation I figured it was worth putting out again during one of our off weeks. Jefferson is an actor originally from Iowa who's been in all you…

Hey Dirtbags! This week’s episode of A Dirtbag’s Guide to Life On The Road is a really special one. I got to sit down with Craig Finn of The Hold Steady a while back and talk about his life in music. From his first guitar lessons and being turned on to independent record stores, to what it takes to make a band like The Hold Steady be able to exist …

Joe Reinhart is what I want to be when I grow up. He's like the cool kid from down street who got into skateboarding and punk rock before everyone and was always down to teach you how to Kickflip or play the bass solo from Maxwell Murder. He's just fucking cool, and he's got a long track record of playing in cool bands (Algernon Cadwallader, Hop Al…

Hello my fellow Dirtbags! This episode was a whole lotta fun. I've known Cody for 5 or 6 years now and the more I get to know him the more I think he's rad as fuck. We grew up in the same corner of Arizona but he's about 10 years younger than me. What I noticed most about Cody when I first met him was his passion for the music he plays and the band…

What's up dirtbags! This is one of my all-time favorite interviews and I felt like it's a really good time to hear this conversation with my friend Genevieve Smith. We recorded this in the late summer of 2020 and so much of what we talk about is still very relevant now. Genevieve has always been good at reminding me to stay hopeful, and I hope this…

This episode is kinda unique. My friend and business partner in Burro Borracho Records, Mark Ricks aka MC Busstop interviewed me while I was in the middle of a crazy touring run last year after I had been robbed in San Francisco. This is that interview, but because it's over a year old, I decided to cut in some new updates throughout the episode to…

Jordan Jensen is one of the funniest people I've ever had the pleasure to meet. We recorded this podcast a week or two before the 2020 election and it's crazy to listen to it now nearly 4 years later and compare where we were with where we are. I don't know if it's good or not, but it's definitely interesting. Very shortly after meeting Jordan I kn…

It's rare that I get to have a conversation where I become best friends with someone recorded, but sometimes that's what having a podcast is all about. I knew when I first met Blake that he was a super cool dude, but it wasn't until this conversation that we realized how much our musical journeys, and tastes were aligned. It was this conversation t…

One of my best friends in the world and one of the best humans I know returns to A Dirtbag's Guide and we get to hang out and be pals and talk about music, rock and roll, and guitar amps! It's a great trip down memory lane and feels like two pals hangin, because it is! Listen to Vincent Drapers Music. Listen to My Music. Listen to music we made tog…

After a LONG hiatus, we're back! I got a chance to sit down with my friend Wes Johnson of Archive Recording in Salt Lake City and talk about his journey from pre-teen punk to well journeyed ranger of the lands of twisting knobs and pushing faders. Wes and I have been friends for a long time now, and it was great to talk a little bit about his journ…

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.

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.

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…

Emily Hulslander is the driving force behind the 90's rock inspired Social Drag as well as one half of the band Guyville, a Los Angeles based duo comprised of Emily as well as friend of the pod Kat Hamilton.

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.…
