"Who Killed the Miracle Berry?"
HOST CHOICE
Saturday @ 9:40 am PT

Proof is a new podcast from America’s Test Kitchen, hosted by Bridget Lancaster. It goes beyond recipes and cooking to investigate the foods we love (such as deep-fried oreos and tiki drinks) and don’t love (like once-in-vogue celery and the meteoric rise of the grain bowl). We ask the big questions (where do food cravings come from?) and uncover the hidden backstories that feed your food-obsessed brain. Proof solves food mysteries, one story at a time.

But some musicians are thriving, through live video, basement shows, and even podcasts. In this special episode of The Drop, a daily music news podcast from Osiris Media, host RJ Bee will talk with Chris Pandolfi, the banjo player from The Infamous Stringdusters, and the host of his own podcast, Inside the Musician's Brain. Chris will talk about how his career has been affected, how he's found inspiration through podcasting, and where the live music industry goes from here.
