Ryan SinnTake a walk with me down Fascination Street as I get to know Ryan Sinn. Ryan Sinnott is the bass player for the pop punk band The Distillers, and the founding bass player for the pop punk band Angels & Airwaves. In this episode, we chat about how he came to be a bass player in the first place, and how important it is to him to maintain the structure of the role of a bass player. We talk about the fancy flourishes and fills that some bass players get overly enthusiastic about, and how there can only be one Les Claypool! As Ryan is bound by an NDA, he cannot really discuss his time with Angels & Airwaves; so instead, I tell him about the first time I heard that debut album. It was a magical experience for me and one that I remember to this day. Next, we dive into where I first heard his band The Distillers, and how he came to be part of that project. He does let me play that first song by The Distillers that caught my attention (thank you Ryan). Ryan is a certified audio engineer, and he does explain why he felt the need to go that route, and he gives some less expensive shortcut tips for anyone out there who wants to go to audio engineering school. Lastly, we discuss some of the interesting paydays that come along with songs being selected for video games. The Distillers had a song on the video game Tony Hawk Pro Skater 4. Follow Ryan and follow The Distillers everywhere and tell Ryan you heard him on Fascination Street Podcast!

This week we're talking about Abigail Jensen. She's a Hollywood writer and comic with hundreds of thousands of followers on social media and a podcast that apparently no one gives a shit about. And no wonder, she tries to position the “intimacy coordinator” of Heated Rivalry as a creative genius. Gay sex is not, nor will it ever be, a creative art form.  Johnny the Audio Engineer joins us and discovers Lisa Boswell for the first time. Hawkie sends in a new commercial for the “Piss On Me Kiki” doll. Stuttering John is so afraid of Matt Mead he doesn't know what to do. Defuse the situation? Intimidate Matt? Bring back up? I'll be shocked if he even shows up to his gig at Rodney's. We finish up with Net News and your voicemails.
