Roadwork Records Podcast

We’re in Detroit mode from the first second: cracking jokes, checking in on real life, and then turning the “juice” all the way up. We celebrate hitting 500 downloads and give a genuine thank you to everyone who listens, shares, and supports, then we get into the kind of honest talk you only hear on a show that isn’t trying to sound perfect, from recovery updates and physical therapy realities to...

Detroit doesn’t do small talk, and neither do we. We start with hometown love, shoutouts, and a real Vinyl Fest recap that gets into what actually helps independent artists move product: better sound, quick vendor callouts, and DJs playing original tracks so people can buy what they just heard. We also share a proud moment for Detroit culture as our books get picked up for display at a Michigan mu...

Detroit is loud right now and not just on the speakers. We kick things off with a fast, opinionated entertainment news rundown that jumps from courtroom updates to the kind of headlines that make you double-check what’s real. We talk reputation, receipts, and how easily modern celebrity narratives get shaped by posts, screenshots, and the internet’s appetite for chaos. Then we hit tour and culture...

The best part of an awards night is what happens before the awards, when the room is still half-chaos and half-magic. We posted up live at Aretha’s Jazz Cafe for the Michigan Music Awards and let the night come to us: artists sliding in from soundcheck, crews juggling cameras, friends yelling hellos across the room, and that unmistakable Detroit grit holding it all together even when the weather d...
