This episode is coming a little later than we'd originally planned. The GoFundMe page is no longer accepting donations as our community knocked it out of the park with helping Nev's family.

We'll miss and remember him always. #Neva4eva #WeJustWarmingUp
- Gina Turner Takes On Honey Dijon Vs. Peggy Gou (01:42:18)
Gina Turner (@djginaturner) really needs no introduction.

We’re not going to spoil anything about this episode but immediately after recording we popped into the group chat and everyone agreed it was one of the most fun episodes we’ve ever had. Gina, you have a permanent seat on this podcast and we can’t wait to have you back. FIRE IT UP!

We’re back baby! We had a blast sitting down with the extremely talented DJ and producer DJ Cable (@djcable) this week for a matchup between Amy Winehouse vs Dua Lipa that left us all fairly one sided. We dive into Cable’s history behind the decks, finding success as a turntablist and producer and we explore the reality of DJs hosting edits and mashups and the impact of the Bandcamp “changing of the guard” and how viable SoundCloud really is now. After we dive deeper into a tweet about “giving djs feedback” and hear a hilarious DJ anecdote from @PHNM New York trip. We wrap it up with a Mount Rushmore of White Rappers (lol) and explore Nando’s popularity. All that and so much more. Fire it up!

We lead off with a battle between The Clash vs The Ramones before diving into her history and what lead her to djing. So many gems in this episode as we dive more into the approach of the vinyl dj and why playing 45s simply isn’t enough time for us to hang out. All that and so much more, fire it up!

We talk Cutso’s Trading Post, his new night combining vinyl and local sellers to help build the community and also dive into the Ice Spice Dunkin drink that’s causing a sugar rush around the nation. America Runs On 5on5! Let’s rock.
- Miss Ninja Takes On Cardi B Vs. Doja Cat (01:27:33)
We back! We love DJ Miss Ninja (@djmissninja) and we knew from our first quick interview with her at NAAM that we had to have her on for a full episode. We dive into a massive head to head between Cardi B vs Doja Cat that is sure to have listeners torn. Following the battle we immediately get into her fandom for Depeche Mode, her years spent as the vinyl plug, and also discuss why Burning Man is most likely a skip for her. Beyond talented, she explains her process of navigating through nightlife with clear intentions and positive energy to put herself in the rooms she wants to be in. Fire it up!
- DJ Chuckie Sits In With The Boys (01:56:48)
When we tell you the DJ Chuckie (@djchuckie) episode is top 3 all time we really mean it. This episode spans dj talk from all corners past and present, outlining the history of some of Chuckie’s biggest hits and how he exploded onto the US scene in Miami before he even touched down. Chuckie covers the historic imprint of house music for him and the task of creating his own sound, the Dirty Dutch movement. As we span the eras we dive into the current climate with the lost art of the opening dj and the reality of the prerecorded set and festival platform in general. Any caption for this episode truly won’t do it justice so we encourage you to fire it up and take the ride with us. Salute the pioneer DJ Chuckie and make sure you catch his live set any chance you can. Legend.
- Deejay Diesel Takes On Johnny Cash Vs. Jerry Lee Lewis (02:11:01)
What a freakin episode this week. The boys ramble down to Nashville to catch up with Deejay Diesel (@deejaydiesel) for maybe one of the best inside looks at how nightlife works. We break down the ins and outs of what it’s like djing, his former role as entertainment director at Riot Hospitality Group for 11 years. We dive into our quickest battle in podcast history before taking a closer look at the Nashville nightlife scene. Handling requests, playing for you, and what happens when bar sales drop, no topic is off the table in this spicy one. Fire it up!
