The Vinyl Guide is a weekly podcast for fans and collectors of vinyl records. Each week is an audio-documentary on your favourite records, often including interviews with band members and people who were part of the project.
It’s hosted by Nate Goyer, a self-described vinyl maniac who enjoys listening to records and sharing the stories behind them. Despite his Yankee accent, Nate lives in Sydney, Australia with his wife, 2 kids, and about 1,500 records. (But only about 1,000 of them his wife knows about.)
The Vinyl Guide takes records one by one, telling the tale of how they came to be, why the work is important, and then shares how collectors can tell one pressing from another. Learn more at the TheVinylGuide.com or simply subscribe via iTunes or RSS feed.
Holy bejeesus look who’s on the show—Fat Mike from NOFX, Me First & the Gimme Gimmes, and of course head honcho at Fat Wreck Chords—the famed independent punk label—drops by to talk about his history, running FatWreck.com for 25+ years, shares some road stories, and discusses the new NOFX record First Ditch Effort. Also included is the new NOFX track “6 Years On Dope.”
