Off the clock

• Live
  music

  If a band I like comes through St. Louis, I'm probably there. Indie rock and alternative mostly, with a catalog that goes deep. I played guitar for a while too.

  • Built to Spill
  • The National
  • Bon Iver
  • Phoebe Bridgers
  • Khruangbin

• Vinyl

  I collect records and concert posters, so a good show usually means something new for the shelf or the wall.

• Food

  Low and slow on the Traeger most weekends. I'm one good excuse away from buying a pizza oven.

  Every morning starts with espresso, and I'm always dialing in the recipe: grind size, dose, yield, time.

• Sports

  St. Louis sports all year: Cardinals in the summer, Blues in the winter, CITY SC in between, and Mizzou every fall.

• Jeeps

  Top off whenever Missouri weather allows. A Jeep is a vehicle and a hobby at the same time.

• Apple

  I've shipped iOS apps, my house runs on HomeKit and Homebridge, and a Mac mini in the basement transcribes a podcast once a week.

• Pod­casts

  Podcasts fill every drive and every long cook. ATP is the one I never miss, enough that I built atptitles.fm to find where each episode title came from. On Relay, it's Connected, Upgrade and Reconcilable Differences.
