The latest Gut Feeling Podcast is an interview with Lucas McFadden, a Vancouver based musician currently drumming with Madness Cartel and Tilted, and formerly of blisteringly fast hardcore unit Reserve 34.

Throughout the talk, Lucas gets into the life of Reserve 34, from the mid '90s through to their final show in 2002. Lucas also touches on: realizing that in a guitarists world, he needed to become a drummer; teen vandalism; punk mansions; fortuitous parking spots. It's a story that also manages to connect Reserve 34 with members of Trooper, the Pointed Sticks, SoCal straight edge group Carry On, and more!

Nothing from the Reserve 34 discography is streaming officially, but the episode features some samples of unreleased demos, radio show performances, live sets, and studio recordings.

The Gut Feeling Podcast is currently streaming through Apple, Spotify, and Sounder.
