Why Did We Ever Meet?

Why Did We Ever Meet?

Marriage. Parenthood. Relationships. Family. All parts of day-to-day life, all things easily failed. The hosts of Why Did We Ever Meet, Ashley & Wes Allen, know these things and are willing to share their failures with you. Why Did We Ever Meet gives you a candid look into "The Allen Club", a family you may already be familiar with due to their involvement in independent film, podcasts, etc. Join them each week (with plenty of interruptions by kids & pets) to find out what blew up in the Allen House & laugh along with them...and at their expense!

WHAT AN EPISODE! We were honored to sit down with Nathan Gray & Becky Fontaine of The Iron Roses and discuss their new record available NOW from Iodine Recordings. Writing hopeful, protest music that gives the audience a sense of belonging seems like a huge task...but The Iron Roses are the exact band for the job. If you're looking for a hopeful, fun conversation on the power of music and community, look no further! www.jabroniu.co...

How does a band's first show end up being an opening slot for Dropkick Murphys' St. Patrick's Day show? The same way they end up on the Clerks 3 soundtrack...they bust their asses. Sal Ellington of the Boston band Rebuilder gives us an incredible episode of WDWEM. Rebuilder's album Local Support is available NOW from Iodine Recordings.
