Union Dues: Will Gig For Beer

Special thanks to our guest Latino Heat. We got the 30 seconds of Fury back in...and believe me I needed that! Also in the discussion: Family Guy, Festivals, why start a business in the pandemic...stuff. So grab a drink and listen to Vic and myself (Ledgie) talk a bunch a shit. Hey, there's some inappropriate language. I bet you're surprised.

First off, I swear this should be my last shitty mic show (I hope). It got better at the end. Second, thank you to Ed! This was a great show! Love talking with touring professionals. For the record, this show has a lot of swearing...I'm not kidding!

Thanks to Pariah for giving us 3-4 hours of time! Because we could only use this much. Bad mic. I recognize the irony of a sound guy having a bad mic. But that's why you tune in, talk about tech...even in the comments! So, take this Memorial Day to raise a glass with us...we're always drinkin'! Oh and swearing. Kids, tell your parents to put their earmuffs on or send them to the other room!

First off, this episode is split. Unfortunately, our guest had to leave early. Secondly, this was hard to edit to this length...which is already far too long but too damn good to shave off more. And finally, there's a lot of talk about shock. Physical shocks, sure (that's me). But being the astute student of psychology that she is, Vic wanted me to say we're discussing people in shock at the end. Lots of profanity, so let the kids listen.

Thank you to JJ for stopping by for a truly great show! In case you didn't know, we let you know in the beginning that we swear. A lot. Make sure the kiddies turn up their headphones if you're listening to this in the car, cuz we swear. A LOT!

So, they happen. Unfortunately, we lost a whole episode. Damnit. But that's ok, I'm one of those weirdos that saves everything and starts recording early. So we cut together some of our favorite stuff that hit the cutting room floor! We hope you like it as much as we did...cuz we had a ball! Oh, and like most of our episodes, there's profanity. This might be more than normal. I can't tell anymore.

This is a quick spot for the show!

In true proof that this is indeed a professional operation, and not just something that we're having fun with, I'm 30 minutes late. Crap. But we have The Dude with us! There's a lot of profanity. Just, a lot. Like, really. Earmuffs for the kids!

Thank you to our guest and we're glad you got home safe! Oh, there's very few times that Vic and Ledge actually said a name that needed to be beeped. So, good job there! As always, there's a lot of profanity. Because we work in the Entertainment Industry! That's all we do, drink coffee and swear.

Working in the entertainment industry means sacrifices. My production area was seized by the real talent in the family so she could produce legitimate theatre...not my clown show. So, I had to go to another room...which is why the mic is a little off. Oh, and I joined Team Pfizer, driving 220 miles to do so. I was under the weather. All these excuses are really just the way to say, thanks to Villan Victress for ALWAYS being on point. Hey kids, there's some bad words! Don't let your parents hear...wait, do I have that right?

A continuation of the look into the backstage life with John Smith and John Smith. Do you want to know what it's like to work in rigging, sound, lighting, audio or scenic in the Entertainment Industry? Here's a chance! Oh, and there's profanity.

Allen Heath Ledger and Victress Villan welcome John Smith and John Smith to do a little Entertainment Business shop talk. Oh, they swear a lot. Like a whole lot! So...there's that.
