Vinyl Snob

Episode 2

 

Record Store Day

In this episode we head to Berkeley, California on Record Store Day and visit two of the biggest record stores in the Bay Area, Rasputin’s and Amoeba. At Rasputin’s, aka Mad Monk, we speak with long time manager Tom Chandler and customers about visiting the local record store instead of buying online. At Amoeba we sit down with manager Dina Ruedel and co-founder Dave Prinz about the culture of the local record store and why they have become popular again.
