About this listen

Cymbals & Cynicism - a podcast where there are no limits on topics or sarcasm. Marching band and Star Wars are central to Bob's history as a nerd, but his love for perfectly smoked BBQ, music arranging and composition, drum corps, and distance running combined with bourbon and his witty sarcasm make this a hilariously random adventure. For now he's left teaching behind and invites you to join him as he starts a new chapter of reflection and ranting on … Cymbals & Cynicism.
