  • Ep 14: Never Too Hot for a Twerking Session
    Sep 19 2024

    Laracon in Texas was too hot for a campfire, but apparently it was NOT too hot for a twerking session, or eating at Terry Black's three nights in a row! Austen and Jesse also talk about launching DAP Keycaps and 1337 Keyboards, as well as murdering your darling.

    Jul 3 2024

    Austen Sforzando and Jesse Leitmotif contemplate the fine intricacies of jazz drumming, the musical concepts of Dredg, the 3D printing of multi-stringed instruments, and brewing coffee with pourovers, moka pots, and/or french presses.
