  • Talks! Episode 90 - Indie Comics with Ryan Holgerson, Levi Erickson, & Jeff Williams
    Jan 31 2024

    This week I spoke with not only musicians, but musicians making indie comics! Ryan Holgerson of Slackmatic (and musically, The Modrats), along with returning guests, Levi Erickson (The Big) and Jeff Williams (Supernova Über Alles), sit down for a conversation that leans heavily towards making comics and the comics industry in general (both indie and major), but we do talk music too! This one runs a little longer, but it could have easily been another hour and a half if I hadn't stopped the recorder, plus I spared you thirty minutes of toy talk up front!

  • Talks! Episode 84 - Gary Ramsey
    Sep 20 2023

    This week, Gary Ramsey paid a visit to the GGH Studio to talk about his nearly 50 years of playing music. Gary is one of a kind and a real hidden gem in the music scene, getting his inspiration by seeing Zeppelin in his teens, cutting his teeth on metal, moving to California and then walking back to North Carolina, a detour in prison after he got back, and America's Got Talent audition, and so many other stories, some of which you aren't gonna believe! Heck, I'm not sure Gary even believes them all! One of the more unique individuals I know and someone who is truly passionate about music, so whether you know him or not, you're sure to be entertained by this one!
