Episode 10 - Bobby Crush (Part 2)

Bobby Crush, who not only appeared with Matt but is a big fan, is back again for the second part of our conversation We discuss his career, parallels, and connections with Matt, as well as his memories of meeting the singer. Bobby had so many stories that we've had to split this interview into two episodes!
We had a few technical issues with Bobby's feed to us, so it's not quite up to the technical standard of our other podcasts, but Bobby is a great storyteller, so I'm sure you'll forgive us its shortcomings.

This time, we introduce our first guest, Bobby Crush, who not only appeared with Matt but is a big fan. We discuss his career, parallels, and connections with Matt, as well as his memories of meeting the singer. Bobby had so many stories that we've had to split this interview into two episodes!
