Unc Talk (ft. Da’ Healerz & The OG Fam)

Posted on by Leave a comment

The Quinn Spinn is BACK for Season 13, and we’re keeping the party going the same way we began: by podcasting in someone’s basement!

Be assured, however, that we’ve all grown in the decade-plus since Episode 1 hit the internet. For one thing, we’re all certified Uncs now. For another, all of that experience makes it easy for us to find ourselves in midseason, pants-removing, Stupid News-sharing, Love Island-and-Morgan-Wallen-bashing form!

In addition to all of that fun, we also welcome Da’ Healerz to our season premiere to talk about their Heal Talk EP, their forthcoming collaboration with Guidance Whiskey, and where you can catch a Heal Talk Experience near you.

‘Don’t Say No’: 20 Years as a DJ (ft. Dominic Longo)

Posted on by Leave a comment

Our latest guest on The Quinn Spinn is… my brother.

My brother Dominic has been a professional DJ for the past two decades. Like anybody building an entertainment-based business from zero, he’s learned countless lessons along the way — lessons which he now looks to teach the next generation of aspiring event DJs.

Also, this episode offers a throwback all the way to the pre-historic days of The Quinn Spinn. In case you didn’t know, we got our start as a college radio show called Dominic & The Quinn at Moravian College in Bethlehem, PA in 2007-08.

Posted on by Leave a comment

Daisy Sellas and Brittany Bishop are the co-founders of Anthems Against Abuse, a Nashville-based non-profit dedicated to providing support and resources to victims of domestic violence and other forms of abuse.

Lips Speak Louder rocks so hard that they only need two members — guitarist/vocalist Rachel Brandsness and drummer Angie Lese — to melt faces. The Nashville-based duo has gained traction being their raw, unapologetic selves — and they make the music to match!

Learn about how Lips Speak Louder has burst onto the scene — and discover what we can expect from their forthcoming album, Consolation Prize — on this week’s edition of The Quinn Spinn!
