Cliftones W/ Jc Denison

Jim Marlowe is a musical multi-hyphenate with a dry sense of humor and a cool accent.  He's also an audio engineer and can paint a house damn near better than anyone around.  And, truth be told, he loves a good hot dog.  Jim has been a seminal member of the Louisville music scene for years, playing in bands like Tropical Trash, Equipment Pointed Ankh, Sapat, and Venus Trap, and he has recorded records for dozens more amazing local bands.  He sat down with JC to talk about VibraSlaps, Robert Wyatt, Shakespeare, Phenomenology, Arby's, and more...

Eron stirs up a Scotch cocktail in the studio after his interview.  He and JC tackle the hard questions too.  Chewing gum or bubble gum?! Bolo ties?! Snack preferences?! It's all here.

Eron Plevan is an incredibly talented and seasoned bartender.  He's been behind the stick at some of Louisville's most legendary cocktail bars, and he has often had a hand in menu creation and implementation.  A Texas transplant, his path to pouring potent potables in the Derby city was anything but typical.   You can currently find him mixing up the goods at the excellent Butchertown watering hole Tartan House.  He sat down with JC to talk about cocktail creation, drinks education, corporate life, liquid nitrogen, and more... Find a bonus episode above where Eron creates a new cocktail in the studio, and he and JC reach into the box for some bonus questions.  Reach out: cliftonespodcast@gmail.com 

Shelley Anderson is an accomplished and highly skilled audio mastering engineer, and she's also a damn good bass player.  She's performed on or mastered some of the coolest records to ever come out of Louisville.  And what's that?!  She also hosts weekly ShellShock Trivia at JC's bar?!  Yes!  She sat down with JC to talk about dogs, fashion, going to Catholic school, MTV, and more...

Stan Chase founded Louisville Vegan Jerky Company, makes up one half of the band Air Chrysalis, penned the infamous Germantown Times, and pretended to peddle 56K internet as Glen's.  When he's not busy keeping Louisville more artistically interesting, he loves making pizza, repairing old TV's, and rating pickles.  He sat down with JC to talk about pranks, nostalgia, baseball, and more...   This episode has no sponsor.  Reach out to me at cliftonespodcast@gmail.com for sponsorship opportunities.  I'm cheap!
