One of our contributors, Ben Slowey, is more than on top of the local music scene. In addition to his work for Breaking And Entering, he also hosts the Mr. Nice Guy podcast, an interview-based show that reaches out to Milwaukeeans for conversations about what motivates them. Many of these shows fittingly involve the local music scene, and we’ll be sharing some of them here as well.

Recently, Ben sat down with Justin Barney, music director for 88Nine Radio Milwaukee. They discussed getting nervous before interviews, how his job has changed his perception of music, and his favorite interviews, concerts, and record store. You can check out more episodes of Mr. Nice Guy on YouTube, and check out this interview below:
