Episode 3: From Tape to Tour – Stories Behind the Sound
In this episode, we finally dig into the music—where it started for me, and how much it’s evolved. I talk about my first job working reel-to-reel tape, cutting and splicing audio with a grease pencil and actual tape glue. From there, it was early computers, underpowered CPUs, and recording on everything from Apple to Windows… even Lexus.

I walk through what real-world recording schedules look like—pre-production, production, and post. The techs, the artists, the songwriters, and yeah, even the baristas who keep the sessions fueled.

Then we hit the road. I share three unforgettable live recording stories from my time on tour:
🎤 A fan battling cancer who made it to her last show on earth
🎖️ A soldier saying goodbye before his final tour in Afghanistan
🔊 A former inmate who held on to one cassette—and hope—for years

These aren’t just road stories. They’re reminders of how deep music can reach.

🎙️ Thanks for tuning in to this episode—raw, random, and real.
🔔 Follow the show so you don’t miss what’s coming next.
💬 Got thoughts, stories, or wild theories? Hit me up on socials or email [[email protected]].
📡 Music in this episode created using Suno AI and my own twisted imagination.

Appreciate you being here. More chaos and conversation soon.
