LoCLE Grown

This week, we’re chatting with a mayor who wasn’t on the ballot (though he does challenge Justin Bibb to a Beyblade battle mid-interview), comedy rapper Mayor Wertz! In just under 90 minutes, we cover a lot of ground - from the joys of physical media to his success with Twitch streaming. Mayor also accomplishes what he really came on the show to do: besmirch ZuP's name (jk). This tequila-fueled episode is definitely one for the books. Stream his album Future Nobel Peace Prize Winner and new s...

The Dog Funk General himself is back! This time he brought his Captain, Corporal, and Lieutenant, together known as False Teeth. These guys bring the best I Got Aux picks we’ve had yet, and they teach us a new game too (though sadly, we’re not sure we have what it takes to play Tall Boy Roulette these days). Their new single “Believe Me” is their first release since their 2025 debut album, Insufferable. They’ve got one more single coming before their EP drops at the end of the year, so follow...

Jared Horgan joins us to talk about Emotions, his first album made entirely on his own: writing, production, mastering, ALL of it. We get into how he fell into a few ghostwriting opportunities, why people crave authenticity these days, and treating social media like part of the job. Dude's already back in music-making mode with new projects cooking, but for now, go stream Emotions and be sure to follow Jared to see what's next! 🎶 SONGS PERFORMED: how would you feel???Settle DownUntitled // Un...

Its another milestone episode for the LG team - two ways! First, our performance mixer, Jake Conder, shares how he went from a long-time Frank Turner fan to being asked to perform at Frank's Lost Evenings Festival in Dallas, TX this year. Second, LoCLE Grown turns seven this week, so our A/V engineer, Danna, hopped on the mic, too, and we made this episode a whole party that included ghost stories, Calvin and Hobbes, and one of our fave games right now: I GOT AUX. Check out Jake's band ...
