"From the Fader to the Percolator: How DJ Pez Became the King of Coffee"

In the mid 90s, I "performed" in a "talent show" at Chapel Hill High School. After an embarrassing debacle involving myself, a cassette single of " Shook Ones, Part II " and some awkward freestyles, a tall man with dangling dreadlocks took the stage. In a deep baritone, he spoke into a microphone and said the words that would haunt me for years to come: "What's up, Chapel Hill?" By the end of the decade we would come to be good friends and in 2021 he visited my studio and made me coffee from his...

Ah yes. In the words of Staind , "It's been awhile." But I am thrilled to be back with my favorite Ratfluencer from the UK, Lily from Lily's Rat Club !

Interview and 90s Rap Trivia with Eric Steuer

Eric Steuer is who I strive to be. A lifetime hip hop artist, podcast host , writer, husband & father, beekeeper, race car driver, cyclops, and all around cool dude*. I knew him back in the Meanest Man Contest days but his rap career has never dwindled - from Not the 1s to Dos Feeliz my dude has stayed active. But besides just hip hop we have a lot of mutual interests from the OG Beverly Hills, 90210 to being Rappers Who Run™. It's these commonalities that influenced my decision to have him ...

YOU BETTER LURK - Lurk Mode is finally here.

It's finally here. My "Chinese Democracy". My "Detox". My "The Queen's Gambit". What can I say? Like many a podcast with a twitchy host, this podcast is a gateway into my mind and the things that I like. Rap. Shoes. Television. I don't want to spend forever talking about it because hopefully we'll be growing together. I will say that if you have fucked with any of my projects over the years, from music to podcasts and everything in between, you will probably enjoy the ride. If you have no idea w...
