How do you network a kitten during The Apocalypse? Listen and learn...COVID-19 has affected millions of people and closed down many businesses, including Project 4 where we record the Podcast. While struggling to figure out what to do with our current platform of in-person interviews, we were forced into a hiatus with no foreseeable endpoint. But thanks to a message from Hawk Percival, Bill realized that there was a strange togetherness that comes from social distancing. With that, he was motivated to reboot the Podcast.On this new post-covid podcast Bill checks in with raz who's been existing on breath mints and bourbon. Then we also hear from friends of the podcast: Hawk Percival, Boy Deluxe and Alex Rose of Canyon Counterpoint.Today's podcast is also brought to you by Patchwork CablesPATCHWORK Cables specializes in custom, made to order, high-quality cables.
