The Independent Grind

 John Robert is an Atlanta resident who loves to travel and try great local food. Created over a year ago, @Johnbob_food has become a popular account for foodies who want to follow aspiring grill master, avid traveler, and Atlanta restaurant expert's many adventures. Passionate about supporting local businesses, we are thrilled to have John Bob as our guest on Ep #23.

John arrives in downtown Chicago and discovers a landscape tragically devoid of independent coffee shops. Despite that, John and Matthew team up and discuss their favorite independent musicians--listen local! Listen to Chapman Whitted and Allman Brown wherever you stream your music. https://open.spotify.com/artist/24TYqldjEqxT23JNZBSSa0?si=MWW6VSGBSP2YoZpkenUR-Q Disclaimer: James blunt released a brand new single called "Adrenaline" and Matthew and John gave a live reaction after listening to it for the first time on this episode.
