To close out the year, I thought it would be cool to hear some awesome stories about life on the road. So I invited a fellow Spoilerverse brother who spent several years in the music industry to share some of his Tales From The Road. Now known only as "Phil the Burned Out Ex Roadie," he joined me for a live- stream chat session on the Indie Pods United Virtual Summit to entertain us all with just a few of his crazy experiences. This was a fun conversation that went way too fast, and we'll have Phil on again next year when we have a little more time to really dive deeper into the debauchery and craziness. So here's to a fucked up 2020 and a hopefully less fucked up 2021! Cheers from Misery Point Radio and the Spoilerverse!
