Drum Corps AF

Drum Corps AFwww.spreaker.com
Drum Corps AF is an irreverent podcast about drum corps and the marching arts. John and Nick love the activity, but we also get sick of all the saccharine BS that passes for commentary. Call it snark or call it shade, it’s what we do. But at the end of the day, we still love drum corps.
