This week we are joined by Joe Yerke and Reese Roper from the Pickle and Boot Shoppe podcast. You might know Joe from his time as the lead singer as The Insyderz and Reese as the lead singer of Five Iron Frenzy. First, Joe and Reese tell us how they got into ska music, why they started a podcast and their favorite tour stories. We spend much of discussing their time in the Christian music scene. Lastly, we give you ska news and our Ska Picks of The Week.
