Cyndi was one of the first people I reached out to when I started the podcast. She started as a fan of Coheed and Cambria and became more involved in the community. Over time she became know as the All Mother (if you know, you know) and was a pivitol part of the online Coheed community. With the help of some friends she started the All Things Coheed podcast (amazing, check it out). She is now the Product Manager at Evil Ink Comics and it is such a great story how she was a fan for years and ended up in the role.
Luke and I go back 20+ years. We sat down to talk about the processes behind building and growing a band, touring, recording, replacing band members, and more. We talked about how the processes changed over the last two decades and how familiar faces seem to always come back around in places you don't expect them.
I'm a big fan of Dewey's podcast and knew some stories about him through listening so I wanted to have him on to talk about growing up in Alaska, moving the band to Portland and everything that happened along the way.

Things didn't go as planned this week so I shared some thoughts on Trevor, grab a story from a friend, and talked to someone close to Trevor. I hope this episode helps you process the loss of one of the best and brightest in the metal scene.

In this episode Josh and I discuss Dogwood history, family gatherings and recipes, punk rock pairings, cooking soundtracks, his podcast, and Saint Didacus tunes. You should really check it out.
