So time has passed and they are still here, sort of. The gang (this time consisting of just Ryan and Andrew) take a moment to let their loyal listeners know what has become of their beloved “This Should Be A Podcast”. Let’s just say it ain’t pretty. But fear not as the guys do come bearing gifts. A rerelease of the much treasured and nearly award winning (had they actually submitted for any) Episode 28 – The tsbaPodcast Holiday Special. An episode that has been in the tsbaPocast vault since 2015.
So sit back, grab some nog and enjoy the retread of a holiday show. Let it be a balm so soothe the fact that tsbaPodcast is kaput.
And THANKS to the Big Big Monkeymen for the use of their always awesome intro and outtro music. And to Kevin Macleod for our reenactment music.
Congratulations Marcus!
Back in episode 50 the gang had the privilege of talking with Marcus Amaker about becoming Charleston’s first Poet Laureate, but in order to allow the news to be properly released to the public they held back on that portion of the interview, until now. So please enjoy this bonus episode of Marcus speaking about becoming the Poet Laureate of the City of Charleston, South Carolina.
1 year. Not too shabby. The gang (and the public) get together to celebrate one full year of podcasting! They kick off the festivities with a sit down interview of Gavin Lyons, co-owner of both The Oak Barrel Tavern in West Ashley and The Drop Inn Bar and Deli on Folly Beach. Gavin tells of how years of roaming the countryside working in food and bev led to developing one of the top beer bars in the country.
Then things really get cooking with a full-on party at The Oak Barrel, where the gang interviews former guests, current fans and future contributors to the Lowcountry (we’re talking about you Baby Finn).
So sit back and relax and forgive the less than ideal sound quality (we were recording in a tavern with a room full of party-goers after all) and enjoy the show!

The gang gathers around for a quickie this week.

EXTRAS
The gang hanging out … in a field.
This week the gang hangs out with Charleston poet, artist, performer and all around amazing human being, Marcus Amaker. The crew gets some insight into the creative process of one of Charleston’s most creative minds. They discuss the importance of quieting the mind so you can present work with passion. And when that doesn’t work bourbon always helps.
They then shift the gears to talk about Charleston’s grand arts festival named for our Sister City in Italy, the Spoleto Festival USA and Piccolo Spoleto. Liz and Ryan share a scant few of the hot ticket events to checkout while the festival runs from May 27th to June 12th.
So once again sit back, relax, turn the lights down to a nice low level, light some candles, maybe some incense, and listen to episode 50 of This Should Be A Podcast.

This week the gang is joined by (once) local artist Nathan Durfee to talk art, mansplaining and trains. Nathan, who has been focal point of the Charleston art scene from many years, talks with the tsbaPodcast crew about his work and how he came to it. He also joins in the conversation about Charleston standing as an “art town.”
Liz then sheds some light on not only the thriving gallery and studio scene, but the vast culture of street art that exists around nearly every corner of the city. Ryan educates everyone on the origins of Charleston’s Gibbes Museum of Art and it’s direct connection to mass transit problems.
So sit back, fill up your brandy snifter, and prepare to get some culture.
And THANKS to the Big Big Monkeymen for the use of their always awesome intro and outtro music. And to Kevin Macleod for our reenactment music.

Awwww, that is so sweet; they called you “special.” But truly, the focus is on their valued listeners, and it come with a call to action. Andrew, Liz and Ryan want to know who their valued listeners are and what makes them tick. They want to know what their listeners like about the podcast and what they don’t. Because Andrew, Liz and Ryan want to make sure they are building the best damned podcast they can.

This week the gang takes the show on the road and heads over to Freehouse Brewing for the first in our Local Brewers Series! Arthur Lucas, owner and brewer of Freehouse, tells the story of a one time lawyer who nurtured a healthy brewing addiction into the creation of Charleston’s only organic brewery.
With a splendid view of the Ashley River, the crew enjoys some beers and laughs while hearing about Arthur’s fascinating past and even more interesting present. From a curiosity of “cheeba chews” to the headaches of legal beer sales, there is rarely a dull moment.

We then turn the direction of the show to distance far off lands with a conversation about where Charleston flights fly to directly and what locations we should fly to nonstop. Be it Las Vegas, Nev., or Spoleto, Italy, the crew leaves no location undiscussed (Well, that’s not true, they leave A LOT of locations undiscussed).

Covering e-books and striving for success without an agent, Leah shares how she, somewhat recently, came to vocation of wordsmith and how she churned a healthy love of universal monsters into a desire to scare young adults.
