It's such an honor to host this event every month, so make sure you join us. The Last Chance Riders have been on before, so we spend this episode getting to know Navajo Joe and Bast. We kick it off by talking about our musical guilty pleasures, and it just snowballs from there haha. Great round of 20 questions. Great bands and even better people. Enjoy!

SCOPED #60 FT. BLOOD OAKS (Atlanta Metal Band)

Blood Oaks is my special guest today! These guys are just one big walking party! Great conversation. They complemented me right off the bat by informing me that I create an intimate environment...craziness with a side of compassion. They are into some weird movies so we geek out on a little film. I have the worst luck with women, always picking the crazy ones or the ones with the crazy ass moms. I'm seeking their counsel. One of their first instincts is to lie....honesty or problem?? One of these dudes has a Masters degree, and what it's in is the surprising thing. So much talking and even more laughter. Enjoy!

SCOPED #59 FT. THE CAROLYN (Atlanta Punk Rock Band)

The Carolyn is my special guest today! What an awesome group of guys. I could've talked to them all day. My favorite era of music was probably early 2000's punk rock, so it was really fun to nerd out with like-minded people. We are all upset about the over-saturation of the market, meaning that even bands that started two days ago can make and put out an album. I had to talk about being vegan and my current adventures into it, thoughts on new years resolutions and how you can always be yourself on my podcast! Never hold back. They also have a new album on the way, so we had to hear a little about that.

SCOPED #58 FT. MOSURA (Atlanta Metal Band)

Mosura is my special guest today! Awesome group of guys! We touch on my new life as a vegan, drummers ALWAYS picking on me, European vs. American metal, all things Mosura, Atlanta's own metal scene and I was so surprised that a metal musician would get into model trains if time and money weren't an issue. People are a mystery. This episode was one big walking advertisement for Scofflaw haha. These guys love them some Basement! Enjoy!

SCOPED #57 FT. A RIPPIN PRODUCTION

Another round of "Beer and Lounging at the Clermont Lounge" happening December 27th! This thing gets more crazy each time we do it. Hell of a lineup, featuring Reverends, The Mystery Men and The Buzzards of Fuzz! Members of A. Rippin Production and The Buzzards of Fuzz joined on this podcast to help it get a little crazy. It gets wild and a little trippy. I'm still not exactly sure what joke Van was trying to get across. I had to cut a bunch out because of "too crazy," new words like joke-ception, how I corrupt every story and the time I broke up with a girl in third grade while wearing JNCO jeans...like a badass. 20 questions as always and a lot of scoped madness. Enjoy!
