This weeks podcast was jam PACKED!! Starting everything off we have local cab driver of TC Cabs Ira Winfield in the hot seat promoting his new best selling book "The Book Of Daniel!" This book was written in honor of his late, good friend Daniel who he spent many days & nights drinking with and also co-founded his Facebook page Psychotic Humor. After that a quick chat with our friends from Nagazi including a couple of their newest tracks. Following that you'll hear our interview and music from the guys in Once Upon A Bison coming out of Cadillac, MI. We then switch gears from the rock and metal scene of Northern Michigan to chat with Fritz and Mr. Markus about the Michigan hip hop scene and the fundamentals of hip hop. And to close out the show, Joey Callahan of Zuni Worldwide Entertainment came in to promote his upcoming event Rock n' Rides happening August 4th to help our local veterans and we also hear a tune from his friend Blair Miller to close out the show! Kory Clarke of Warrior Soul was going to be on tonight but we had to reschedule as he is currently in Greece and I didn't really pay attention to what time it was in Greece at the time of the live show.... Ha ha!!! We do hear some of their newest music though and will chat with Kory soon!
