  • Love the podcast and the vibe

    I just discovered this podcast. I'm just getting back into collecting so I'm new to the vinyl community and would love to contribute at some point. I have a relatively small collection at the moment but hoping to grow it as I go. I'm starting a blog on substack on my record collecting journey and want to explore the possibility of doing a podcast, dropping the needle out of my record collection and talking about a record in my stack.

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Concert Buddie | Everyone Loves a Sequel! Dada x Record Store Day, Round 2 - Interview with Joie Calio
Q: How did the Puzzle reaction and subsequent demand influence the plans for El Subliminoso?
The Puzzle success created a strong appetite in fans and retailers, which helped generate momentum and conversations within Real Gone and Universal about continuing the vinyl revival with El Subliminoso, even though no guarantees were made initially.
Safe & Sound Texas Audio Excursion | Behind the Scenes of Vinyl Record Manufacturing - VRMA Board Member Bryan Ekus
Q: Can you speak to the new materials and how they differ from traditional PVC in terms of sustainability and performance?
There are several alternatives like Bio Vinyl which uses collected oils instead of virgin oil, Eco Vinyl that recycles house materials, Green Vinyl using PET, and even sugar-cane-based options, all aimed at reducing environmental impact while maintaining or improving sound quality.
Surface Noise | Is Vinyl Record Collecting Too Expensive For New Collectors?
Q: Do you think that record collecting is becoming too expensive for new collectors?
Yes, prices are increasing significantly, making it hard for new collectors, especially younger individuals with limited budgets, to participate in the vinyl community.
Surface Noise | Starting Over? Rebuilding a Vinyl Record Collection in 2026
Q: If you had to start from scratch today, what would you do differently in building a record collection again?
I would focus on checking original pressings before jumping on reissues, as many originals sound better than quick reissues.
Surface Noise | Critical Mass! Are Record Collectors Too Critical?
Q: Are you too critical as a record collector today, Chris?
Yes, especially when around others. There's a dangerous intersection between being passionate and nerdy.
