Zak Sherman and The Telecaster
Today our hosts chat with Zak Sherman of The Audio Cultivation Project. They talk about his entrance into pedal building coming at an early stage in his musical development, and how that leads to designs that come from an unexpected place. They also talk about the upcoming Midwest Pedal Fest, and why he and Alec Breslow chose to host it in Detroit. And of course, they talk about his chosen object: a particularly modded Telecaster that speaks to who he is as a player and pedal designer. They try to tackle the important questions, like what is a Telecaster, what is the midwest, and who in this room is a poser?

Jesse Honig and The Spirit In The Room
Today our hosts welcome back one of the finest minds in Objects: Jesse Honig of 29 Pedals and Believable Audio. They discuss his recent video on the differences between preamps, and our hosts experience a freewheeling wonderment of knowledge. Subjects include capturing the spirit in the room, leaning into the noises, letting an idea be fully explored on its own, a hot take involving acoustic treatment, and how the five percent difference only matters when it matters to you and your creative process.

Hacking Your Pedals
Today our hosts talk about their favorite off-label uses for pedals: an Expression Ramper as an expression splitter, a trereo overdrive pedal as a lofi tape machine, a pedal with perfectly spaced knobs as a phone holder, etc. They take calls and some comments from the Discord, all focused around pedal usage that goes beyond the marketing and expectations of the user interface into unexpected sonic corners.

Philippe Herndon and the Art of the Normie Pedal
Today our hosts welcome Philippe Herndon of Caroline Guitar Company. He talks about their latest pedal, a self-proclaimed normie pedal called the Aaron Graves Overdrive. We talk about specific design choices, the story of its namesake, and the importance of versatility even in a fairly fundamental pedal. Plus, we get the scoop on why they use pictures instead of labels, and Philippe has a surprise for us in lieu of the traditional object talk. It's basically a two parter, so fire it up and get listening!

Andy Plays the Planetarium
Today our hosts welcome themselves! Andy talks about his recent show at a planetarium: the gear involved, the style of preparation, and the experience of performing with previous guest Matt Kidd. Then they take some calls with questions about a variety of things, and their answers range from "we've never heard of it" to "sorry, that was a lot of information and I don't know if I answered your question." It's another hour of unabashed whatever this is!
