episode 14 Lost Tapes "Beat Kangz"
A classic free-for-all harkening back to the old days. Dedicated to Robert Zemeckis in all his incredible foresight.
We talk jail/cop stories, Kermit's dastardly connections circa the early 00's, and probably a whole slew of items on a list of tangential points propelled by only cursory knowledge to carry us through. Just like old times.
Tour soon! click below to find out more

episode 13 "The Lost Tapes" bandcast
Lost in the catacombs of a folder on my desktop the Lost Tapes have resurfaced. Our cast is a very very very nice cast.
If you google the videos based on the keywords associated with them you'll definitely find them. It's just now that I've gone outright and said it I'm sure we both feel kind of silly. And I'm sorry for that.
Amen.

episode 12 "Locally Sourced" with Gabe Egbuson
Step into the parlour, it's a beautiful Sunday (late on a Thursday evening)
Locally Sourced is a media company based out of Austin, TX with the sole purpose of creating a platform that showcases and archives the best creatives in the city and beyond. From art to music to skate culture and more. I sat down with founder/operator Gabe Egbuson and talk about the musical landscape in a city that's more and more resembling the opening scene from Terminator.

episode 11 "Inktoberfest" pt 2 with @nikaowho

episode 10 "Inktoberfest" pt 1 with @nikaowho
"...Dopamine! that's the one."
Caleb Harcastle is a visual artist who blends fantasy and narration keenly into his work under the tag @NIKAOWHO. I invited him over to discuss Inktober, an annual month long challenge in which artist all over the world commit to doing one drawing a day the entire month of October.
In addition to catching up and circling back to Inktoberfest we talk Batman, Double Dragons, death, and how he was able to hop into the realm of video game design from a background in fantasy and hand drawn works of wonder.
Part two next week!

episode 9 ft. Alex Mikrut
An especially silly episode featuring my dear friend and roommate Alex Mikrut. He's the funniest person I know and it's only now that I realize we should have gotten into how we were introduced to one another. Alas, another cast for another time.
Fate makes fools of us all and this is the cast thats asks "why not then feast?"
Mark Twain said that.

episode 8 "Austin Uncharted: Charted" with David McDonald
David Evans McDonald is an audio engineer with a penchant for building his own gear and helping out local musicians the only way he knows how— making ‘em sound good. We’ve had the great pleasure of knowing him for many years now as will be further explored in this riveting, extended, one-on-one episode of Feast of Friends.
Also I just can’t stop bringing up Sloan Bella.

episode 6 • "Last Matterica on the Left"
The band is back together, bbs. We talk movies with no arcs, remember some of our personal favorite Halloween costumes, and go over a few NDEs. It’s a Spooky Time pre-Halloween-isode.
It's official, the cast is going corporate.

episode 5 "Renaissance Mediocrity" ft. Steven Mashaka and John Michael Sherry
This week Michael pays a couple dear friends of the band a visit.
Steven Arif Mashaka (@steven.arif .mashaka) is a producer, engineer, songwriter, and general wizard currently working under the name Quiet the Weather and has been a long time collaborator with songwriter John Michael Sherry (of Sherry notoriety/@listentosherry).
We talk OCD, muse on the process of collaboration, and some new light is shed on Stephen Frequincy that’s shocking even to me.
Arif was kind enough to give us some very fresh, unreleased Quiet the Weather tunes to use! But as a result they’re unnamed. The Sherry song that plays us out is called “Sunday” and I’m honored to have played and sang on it.
Check out the video in the links below to see us all living up to the name of this podcast!

episode 4 "Drum Machine Power"
We’re living in the Outernet. Wrapping up some light tour stories from last winter, we talk coverage, and probably even freestyle rap due to mystical drum machine powers. Can’t remember! And I think we all know that’s the sign of a good cast.
