I’ve loved their music for years, my daughters first concert was Blaggards, it doesn’t hurt that Patrick is easy on the eyes. At a recent concert he mentioned they do a podcast, I had no idea! Now I’m playing catch up and loving every minute! Ta boys!!
Congrats. Really. The content is fantastic and extremely interesting.
Thanks for all the hard work, Smalley.

Just fabulous, a brilliant insight into the world of blaggards, the stories give you a behind the scenes look at this hard working band , the stories from the road and the friendship made and how they appreciate the help from fellow musicians and especially the fans.
Always packed with great inside information, history, references to other bands, pubs and podcasts. But the most fun for me is picking out Patrick's off the cuff analogies and comments. Always entertaining, just like their live shows. I guarantee you will never see the same Blaggards show twice. You may think you know the lyrics, but you don't. LEMMMMONNNN CAKE!!!
It wasn’t a hard sell! Patrick & Chad are awesome storytellers and really fun to listen to. Great job, guys! Keep ‘em coming!

The show centers on long-running music acts and the local touring circuit, with a heavy emphasis on road stories, gear and stage life, plus practical takes on booking, venues, and the business of keeping a band afloat. Episodes frequently feature musician guests, mix in humor and banter, and highlight collaborations, behind-the-scenes crew dynamics, and the evolving live-music scene across Texas and the Pacific Northwest. A standout trait is the intimate, crew‑style vibe—hosts treat guests as part of the team, sharing candid anecdotes, touring logistics, and community-driven storytelling that resonates with bands, venue owners, and fans alike.
