  • 26: the LVP Make Music
    Jul 21 2025

    In our season one finale, Joe and Steve explore what it's like to make music in a band.

    the LVP are Steve, Joe, Vince Camarista, and Thomas Raker. Collin McClutchy of Sword and Dagger Audio produced their EP, I Feel Too Many Things, But I Don't Have the Room. It is streaming everywhere now!

    How does creating art in collaboration with others make us better and grow as people?

    the LVP are playing a show in celebration of the release at Main Drag Music on July 24. If you don't go, you will hurt their feelings.

    Thank you to everyone who supported this first season of the show. We'll be back soon!

  • 23: Collin Has a Mouth and Loves to Read
    Jun 30 2025

    Collin McClutchy is a talented person. He produces records for Sword and Dagger Audio in Brooklyn, NY. In addition to crafting soundtracks for multiple seasons of My First Dungeon, Collin creates “synth music for sworn swords and sorcerers” as BE/HOLD. Somehow Collin also finds time to be an avid reader of fantasy, sci-fi, and speculative fiction.

    How does reading speculative fiction inform one’s own artistic and professional path?
