In this episode we chatted with the Pennsylvanian Dark Lord himself, Josh Balz. For those of you who don’t know Josh, he’s a multi business owner, entrepreneur and musician. We talk about his Oddities Parlour ‘The Strange and Unusual’ as well as Steamy Hallows, his magical little coffee shop. For any Motionless In White fans out there, we talk about some of Josh’s touring memories and how the band shaped him, and the music he's making now! This episode was recorded in Josh’s home and features appearances from his adorable pets Volta, Gucci, Toronto, Moon and Pia. You can follow Josh’s businesses on Instagram @TheStrangeAndUnusual, @BattyFangSalon and @SteamyHallows, and follow his musical project @Strangekidsmusic, and the man himself @joshbalz.

This episode has been plucked from deep in the RPRC archives! Patrick Devin is a Rhode Island based musician, songwriter, vocalist/multi instrumentalist, Justin Timberlake appreciator and the best auxiliary percussionist RPRC has ever seen. Pat sat down with us a year ago (on his birthday!) and talked about his musical discoveries, his process as a songwriter and his history in Trophy Wives, Volcanoes and more. Like a fine wine, it's been aging in the vault of RPRC ever since! Now it's available for you to enjoy, and how fitting, as we are gearing up for the release of Pat's latest single "Just Like You" on October 16th and his upcoming record "Never Been Hurt" on October 23rd.
