About this listen
In this episode of Audio Path, John and Trent take a brutally honest—and hilarious—look at the mistakes that can cost you the gig in both studio and live audio environments. From early-career blunders to fresh-off-the-road fails, they dig into real stories that reveal how ego, lack of preparation, bad attitudes, gear assumptions, and even boredom can sabotage your reputation fast.
They also share unforgettable encounters with difficult artists, chaotic festival situations, broken routing, warehouse acoustical nightmares, rogue click tracks, and engineers who should probably switch careers.
Whether you're new to audio or a seasoned pro, this episode is packed with hard-earned lessons, red flags to watch for, and reminders that the simplest rule still holds true: don’t be a jerk.
Tune in, cringe along with them, and learn how not to blow your next gig.
