    I just wanted to thank everyone who makes this web series possible. I just started watching and these talks give me hope. Hope that outside this basement and slamming doors, there's a world full people passionate about music. Music is a shelter for me right now, but one day it will be my home. A thousand times Thank you. It means everything. - Andrew

    Another great interview. Tchad is always a joy to listen to. I'm putting him on my favorites list right up there with Andrew Scheps & Pensado. Likable smart guys that are good at what they go, humble about it, and happy to share how they work. Great show.

    Tchad said a lot of things like having off days and the whole shooting the shit that I have had my fair share experiences with. Makes me feel good about where I am going. Great episode! Oh and "In The Lair" was weirdly spot on with a problem I am having on a song this week. I may have to try that but what can work without having that UA plugin? I don't have it. What might be some other alternatives?
