Fitting Music Into Real Life (ft. Danny Spiro)

Posted on by Leave a comment

As we progress into our music careers — as hobbies become careers, and our responsibilities outside of the industry increase in volume and importance — we stop asking the same questions.Instead of putting our whole life on hold for music, we begin to ask: how do I make this career fit into my life?

This timely conversation with the returning Danny Spiro dives deep into that question, as we uncover the ways we’ve found to move forward as life, the industry, and our own endeavors have evolved.

This episode of The Quinn Spinn was recorded at The Russell, Nashville, TN.

What if the only thing standing in your way are the stories you tell yourself?

A radical shift inspires this Quinn Spinn Solo Mission; one marked by the world of possibility that exists on the other side of the walls we put up.

We have two choices: follow the scripts our minds have written in order to protect us, or rip them up and write something new.

Trust the Process

With 2026 now in full swing, different levels bring different devils. A new year means new challenges and opportunities, and that means digging in and doing the work as the story unfolds.

There will be highs. There will be lows. There are lessons in both. It’s all a part of the process…

What are two middle aged uncs to do on a Sunday night, but hop on Zoom, record a podcast, and play some games!

We have a little bit of fun to open up the December action on The Quinn Spinn. We play a riveting game of “Would You Rather?” before Scotty quizzes The Quinn on a series of quotes, to determine whether they were said by an actual rockstar or AI…

Plus, we recap a monster October at Underground Music Collective, and give you a little Something For Your Ears with Limp Bizkit’s latest single, “Making Love to Morgan Wallen.”

Gussapolooza 2025: Day 3

Posted on by Leave a comment

Note: This episode is released in loving memory of our original ProFX12 mixer, which perished during the making of this episode after 11 loyal years of Quinn Spinn service. Unfortunately, these technical issues mean that a couple of AWESOME interviews were compromised beyond reasonable repair and did not make this episode, while parts of others may be missing. We look forward to re-doing those at the next available opportunity!

Here it is — the long-awaited conclusion to our trilogy from Gussapolooza 2025!

This episode — coming to you from the final day of this year’s festival — touches on the creative journey, and the lessons it teaches us as we embark and continue on the path. We sit down withCo from Barrie Millennials, Jade Hilton, Sean William Dawson, & Francesca Panetta, giving you a full view of Ontario’s creative landscape.
