The Paddy Wagon

Mike sits down with Leo, the frontman of the emerging and energetic UK band, Emergency Break. They discuss all things music, the band's unique chemistry, which band member is least likely to be a hit with the ladies based on the instrument they play, Leo's stage diving mishaps and the fact that Mike has still yet to have a proper drink with a rockstar because Leo brought the most UK thing possible to the party...  TEA!!!  We'll cut him some slack because of the time zone, but normally this type of behavior is unacceptable.

Be sure to stay tuned after the episode to hear the bands hit song, Hometown!

Stopping by the Paddy Wagon, as our first return guest, Damien brings along his partner in crime, Christian.  This duo hosts the Remain, Roam, Return Podcast and are always a joy to sit down and chat with.

We try and figure out what s*xual act the "Bearded Christian" entails, discuss the imfamous "Pittsburgh Toilet" as well as Mike's new basement getaway, The Paddy Wagon Pub and all of his OCD that went along with it.  Christian tells us about his digestive system, which he purchased off Temu and why it can only handle pasteurized beer, which he handles himself in his own make shift methlab.  Mike also shares a heartfelt story about the time he shared a portopotty with a random stranger who decided to blast a few rails of the devils dandruff...  Not exactly the "blow" Mike was expecting.

 

Damien and Christian will be hosting a night of comedy at the Dive Oyster Bar, This Saturday March 15th.  Comedian Jason Mena will be performing his act and if we're lucky, Triple R's own Christian, may grace the crowd with his stage presence.  Stop on by for a night of great food, drinks and laughter.
