Swap Cast - Generations to Hunt
Recently MBH Podcast Host Bill Hoffman was a guest on the Generations to Hunt podcast which is a fellow Michigan based show. Bill sits down with Joe and Matt and discusses a range of things from his writing and performing careers and of course lots about MBH! This podcast is their recording and while it is different than a normal MBH podcast we think you will enjoy the discussion and banter as the guys joke around a bit. Also make sure you head to the amazon link below and snag a free copy of Bill's book - Twins of Prey.
LANGUAGE WARNING - The guys use a little bit of campfire language. Nothing worse than you would hear on a school bus but just in case your kids listen with you we wanted to be upfront about it.
