In this episode, the Two Dudes took the show on the road for the first Tailgate episode of Season 3 at Pine Knob Music Theatre in Clarkston, MI for the Dave Matthews Band show. They were lucky enough to have Chris Grodzicki and hi daughter, Gabby, join them before heading inside.

Kal and Neil have know Grod for decades and he was routinely hanging out at home base before some of the iconic shows we talk about on TDaKT. Grod never went to the shows because he wasn't into music all that much. That all changed when he started listening to TDaKT and now you can't keep him for going to shows.

Make sure to listen in as they have a great time sharing their favorite Paul moments from shows over the years. We will have to get Grod on again, so many more things to cover.

In this episode, Kal and Neil go without a guest for the first time in Season 3. Listen in as Kal talks about his mini tour following Ben Harper around and when he actually met him in Toronto. The Two Dudes also discuss the Billy Corgan solo shows, a stripped down version of Rusted Root, and bevvy of other things.

Kal also updates his Forever Five during this episode so listen in to find out who is in and who is out. A special Playlist from this Episode will have two songs each by the Updated Forever Five, two songs each by the Second Line (6-10), and one song each of the two retired Forever Five members

In this episode, the Two Dudes invited Craig Hearn to the show. If anyone knows anything about TDaKT you know Kal and Neil both played soccer together in college. If anyone knows anything about soccer in Michigan, they know Craig Hearn.

Craig is from the metro Detroit area, but spent time in South Africa while his dad was a soccer pro there and then spent a good portion of his childhood in the UK before landing in Michigan. He went on to play for the Michigan Wolves club before rounding out his career at Michigan State University.

Since his playing days, Craig started the We Are Soccer show on Sunday nights at 9pm where him and his co hosts discuss EPL, Local Soccer, World Cup, USMNT and so much more.

Listen in as the Two Dudes talk to Craig about the glory days, how music impacted his played a role throughout his career, and what it takes to do a live show every week

In this episode, the Two Dudes welcom Jason Waggoner back to the show. Jason was first on TDaKT for S2 EP18 and spent almost three hours jibber jabbering

This time came in around an hour while Jason gave an update on what he has been up to in the last year. He is still playing non stop, creating new music, and has found a nice little foothold in LA that seems to have given him even more inspiration.

One thing is certain, he has definitely stepped up his Social Media game in the last year, make sure to check him out!!

For S3 EP9, the Two Dudes welcomed Shayne O'Keefe to the new Studio in Redford, MI. We met Shayne when his band Gusher opened up for Frank Black at Saint Andrew's Hall in Detroit on 1.28.25. The band was awesome and we met Shayne outside after his set.

It was cool to hear how Shayne got his start in music and more specifically how he became the frontman for Gusher. Shayne is also the owner of Metropolis Bicycles in the Corktown area of Detroit.

Great story about a guy who never wanted to be a frontman but eneded up becoming of the of the more charismatic lead singers we have seen perform.

In S3 EP8, the Two Dudes welcomed Mista Grinch, Patrick Simmons, to the Studio for the last episode before the big move. Patrick is a rapper based out of Pontiac and is a member of the Cypher Society. If you haven't heard of it, make sure to check this out.

It was cool to hear how he got his start and what he is working on now. He has some new music dropping soon with Scar Face, Ice Cube and, On Point, can't wait to check it out.

In S3 EP7, the Two Dudes welcom E and Tank from the Extended Play Podcast to the original Studio for one of the final two episodes. One of the few times where we fill out all four seats.

Love what these two are doing with their Detroit area based Podcast, which is where Kal first found them. One of our favoities episodes was when E was breaking down NWA's Straight Outta Compton, a classic for sure.

We could have gone another couple hours with these guys easily, can't wait to get them back on again.

In S3 EP6, the Two Dudes welcome Anne Harris to the show for the first remote episode of the season. Kal saw Anne perform with Cracker at the Magic Bag in Ferndale back in January where she tore the stage up with her fiddle and passion.

Anne's passion for live music is infectious and we were so excited when she accepted our invitation to be on the show. Not only does Anne play with Cracker, but she has a stellar solo career with a new album out now.

Make sure to listen in to hear about how she started playing with Cracker after a music "blind date", a really cool festival coming up in June, and all about her favorite artists and insiprations.
