Our guest this episode is Ben Weinman, founding member and leader of the incredible but defunct band The Dillinger Escape Plan. As of late he has been managing artists, raising a family, and managing a farm of rescue animals in rural New Jersey. A TON of energy goes in to maintaining this rescue and I would recommend checking out a little about that HERE. You can support the efforts of this rescue, as well. I love this conversation and we covered a lot of things parallel to lives in music. I hope you enjoy it as much as I did!  If you're enjoying Couch Riffs Podcast and/or the video series please consider becoming a pledge member for as little as .99/month.
