We will see if that still holds true as today we are interviewing one of the most controversial people to ever work in the World Wrestling Alliance. Zachary Westinghouse has managed Alexander Knight, Pretty Powerful, and more. He is an unstoppable force on the microphone and admittedly a better manager than myself. Westinghouse left the WWA in 2021, but still continues to leave influence everywhere.

We also break down philosophies on the music we listen to and why we create the styles of music we do. It is a great discussion and even comes with a song by Jesse Black following his interview. Thank you all for listening!

Ep. 3: Stephen Parks, podcast connoisseur
I'll be honest, we just get weird with this one.

Join me as we dive head first down the rabbit hole of nonsense that you'll only find on the Colonelcast!

Episode 2: Radka Kasparcova live from Mississippi
Live from the Pinetop Perkins Workshop in Clarksdale, Mississippi, the second episode of the Colonelcast is a special one as it is recorded live from the bluesy cabins of Clarksdale, Mississippi during the Pinetop Perkins Workshop. Along with a fascinating two part interview with Radka, we also recorded a live version of my song "Cross Country Woman" with Radka on guitar and myself on vocals and an old, out of tune, neat little piano we found in one of the cabins.
