Episode 2: Step out of the kitchen and into the festival! This week on the Smoke and Slice Podcast, host J.B. takes the mic on the road for an exclusive, on-site Artist Spotlight at the annual Schwagstock 56 music festival.

Ep 1: Marceline Mastery w/ Big Erv of KDWD 99.1
Welcome to the debut of The Smoke and Slice Podcast with J.B. & Drew.

We kicked things off big. Like, Big Erv big.

We sat down at KDWD 99.1 with the man himself — Big Erv — for a 10-layer deep dive we’re calling Marceline Mastery. From his first microphone dream as a kid in Marceline, to grinding through late-night board shifts, to owning the station that built him… we uncovered the whole story.

No surface-level talk here. We go layer by layer: the failures, the mic drops, the deals, the doubt, and the day he put his name on the building.

If you’re from Marceline, love radio, or just need proof that hometown dreams still win — this one’s for you.

Hit play. Let’s slice it up. 🎙️

Guests: Big Erv, KDWD 99.1
