Mixtape Memories with Dan Blacktree
posted 15 hours ago #
Here's an interesting combo that I don't think I've ever written about before - Mixtape Memories is both a conversational card game and an insightful podcast. I'm sure I've written about both of those things in the past but never together.
The game is a deck of cards shuffled inside of a cassette shell. You draw a card and the topic on it becomes the jumping off point of conversation. What are songs that make you think of My First Car, My First Job or Emo Goth Songs? It's not so much a competition as it is a series of entertaining prompts.
The podcast is that same formula but with a person of interest on each episode. The latest is with Dan Blacktree, a good friend of mine from San Francisco that only occasionally peeks his head out into the world in this way. He's generally a non-public person but he's always a downright delight to speak with or hear spoken with. He has a great love for music and this is a really nice entry point for Mixtape Memories. Get to know them both.
