Want to hear Hank tell the embarrassing story about being on NBC’s The Today Show last week? Cool cool cool, step right up, this is the episode for you.

ANYWAY, this week your dudes are joined by professional actor and musician Noah Pelty from NYC. We talk to Noah about growing up as a street rat in Manhattan, coming up as a child of the theater world and finding his way to Broadway, how his band Canon Hill is weathering the pandemic, and letting your rig be determined by context.

Also discussed: the joy of vintage gear catalogs, proto photo flame, the Acon Digital Multiply chorus plugin, the insane selling prices of Prince’s DX-7 and Kurt Cobain’s MTV Unplugged 1959 Martin D-18E and Boss DS-1, Mike Judge’s Tales from the Tour Bus, and David Bowie’s Hunky Dory. We also found time to cover Dave’s new Teac turntable, Focusrite interfaces being updated to work with iPad Pro, Apple ditching Intel processors, and tongue-twisters with That Klick Knob’s That Klick Classic.

Please don’t go to Herd Immunity Fest.
