In the pod lounge is drummer and musician Mike Schertenlieb, best known as the drummer for Flexadecible, Biffy the Beat Slayer, Kyle Brown and the Human Condition, and many more. After Mike walks us through his band history and recent gig at the Frauenthal Center in Muskegon, we talk shop on all things drums, funk, music technique, and tons more. After we run through some News Of The World, we talk about dreams, movies, albums, and stand up comedy. Then we totally nerd out on books, authors and writing. Soak it in.
