RVA Mag Editor Andrew Necci Talks Wal-Mart, Doom Metal & More With Cut The Cord Radio

by | Aug 11, 2014 | POLITICS

Yes, people, it’s true–I was on local internet radio show/podcast Cut The Cord Radio last Thursday evening. Normally when I repost these interviews that the Cut The Cord crew send to me, I tell you a bunch of stuff about the person being interviewed, the stuff they discussed, and why you should care, but since this time it’s ME, I don’t really feel like an explanation is needed.

Suffice it to say that if you read this publication regularly enough to want to hear me talk to Cut The Cord host Tyler Matthews and his compatriots James and Ryan for two hours, you’re in luck!

We talk about everything from the Wal-Mart on Grace Street (and why I think it’s way too late to get angry about it) to how bored I am with doom metal these days, complete with my imitations of Black Sabbath guitar riffs. It was a lot of fun to be on the show, and I hope at least some of that comes through when you listen. And by the way, we curse a whole bunch, so don’t listen at work.
