Episode 60 – The White House Sessions: Volume 1


Creating podcasts for Visions of the Unexcused has been a solitary art. I’ve always enjoyed the process, but recently I wanted to do something different, organic, and more importantly – with friends. Inspired by the sonic champions at Doodcast I decided to create a podcast live and with my fellow comrades. For this task I ventured to the “The White House” – a continuation of the legendary “Sydney Street” apartment; which has hosted some of the finest tech-heads, freaks, and drunks in the greater Cambridge-Somerville-Boston area. So on a Saturday Night not too long ago I put on my Mint Pillow hat as we got weird spinning music while getting lost. The White House Sessions is the result – and this is Volume 1 of 2.
