Blake Wyland requires no introduction - he's the host of the super popular The Tone Mob podcast, he's a co-host on the equally popular and eternally goofy Chasing Tone with Brian Wampler and Richard Oliver - he's also a partner in StringJoy Strings (affiliate link below!) and he's the one man musical maelstrom called American Cyclops. I'm so thankful to be able to call Blake a friend and anytime I get to spend a couple hours talking to him is time very well spent!

S3E15 - What does Star Trek have to do with guitar? w/ Mike 'Puisheen' Adams Jun 01, 2023

Show notes

Send us a text

Mike is not only incredibly knowledgable, incredibly likable, and a heck of a guitarist - he's one of the most boisterously happy and upbeat people I've ever talked to. Mike is the offset guitar guy - and we cover some of that in this episode. Mike is one of the best hangs in the business and it's easy to get lost in conversation with him on any topic, just like we did in this episode!
I hope you enjoy this episode as much as I did!
