Opinionated Nashville-based engineers Scott Velazco and Ben Strano pull no punches in their irreverent yet informative new video podcast, "Sonic Valentine". The two sit around a mixing console drinking beer and reviewing gear. The format resembles a cross between Wayne's World and Ebert and Roeper. The typical episode has them raving about the newest EQ plug-in or complaining about the "Fisher-Price" aspects of an expensive control surface. Alcohol fuels many of their insightful ruminations so this podcast is probably NSFW. Mix in a few short comedy bits plus a favorite feature "Guitar Gods of MySpace" and you have a tight 25-minute show."
