Time For Heroes

Something a bit different today, I hooked up with two of the finest podcasts around, Carl Maloney of the fantastic RGM Podcast, Stevie Nussbaum of the equally amazing Fantastival Podcast and myself sat down for a natter on why we do what we do, the highs and the lows and everything in between, both boys are doing terrific things in terms of promoting both grassroots and established acts and that is why i admire them so much!If you like Time For Heroes, i guarantee you will like both these podcasts so once you've listened to this click the links and ,listen to both RGM and Fantastival.RGM MAGAZINE | LinktreeFantastivalPodcast | Twitter, TikTok | LinktreeAnd you can get in touch with me here:://www.facebook.com/timeforheroespodcastTimeforheroespodcast (@Timeforheroesp1) / Twitterhttps://www.instagram.com/timetimeforheroespod@gmail.comArtwork courtesy of Rowan McDonaghRowan McDonagh (@rowan_mcdonagh_design) • Instagram photos and videosMusic by The Young Hips, check them out here:https://open.spotify.com/artist/0wnBIA2KIwgNjCQPB6RY6h?si=Rd3wMJl5TImhlNDr9Wt3Yw
