It took 11 episodes and a weekend chock full of (too many?) gigs to finally get your two working musician podcasters to let their guard down and enter the minefield that is discussing wives, husbands, boyfriends, girlfriends. Whatever the label, it’s probably a bad idea to record this discussion. And then they released it, here for your listening pleasure. Send in your thoughts about this episode to feedback@giggabpodcast.com. Paul and Dave would love to hear what you have to say about this one.

Gear is fun, and most musicians spend more time thinking and talking about gear — and money spent paying for gear — than just about anything else related to their hobby. It’s high time your favorite Weekend Warriors dug into this conversation and this week’s episode digs into Dave’s drum gear and then into the mixing consoles that the guys each use for their gigs. Listen up!
