    The Southern Vangard is both a right now, ear to the digital streets, must listen while also being a callback to the best college/indie/underground radio of the 90s. If you aren’t drawn into the world of twice a week Doe, twice a week Meeks then you likely aren’t really about this music and culture. The skill, knowledge, and time put into this pod and offered to y’all for free, man alive, that’s why it’s understood that they’re your daddies.

Actually, to be honest, competing for the Beat Junkies at their booth was a big challenge and I was honored to earn their respect after waiting 25 years to do so.
