About this listen

The Peter Boyles Show - February 21, 2026 HOUR 3:

Peter is joined by Chuck Morris and Flobots member Stephen "Brer Rabbit" Brackett for a wide-ranging conversation about unconventional career paths in music, radio, and live entertainment. The hour covers the Flobots’ early days in Denver, teaching and activism before getting signed, and why most successful careers don’t begin with a clear plan.

The discussion shifts into stories from the old Colorado concert scene, club promotion, and Peter’s early work in professional wrestling — including ring announcing, promoters, and learning hard lessons about getting paid. The hour closes with a candid look at how the music business has changed: consolidation, touring as the main income, streaming economics, and the growing impact of AI-generated music on artists and audiences.
