Welcome to Season 1, Episode 4 of "Secondhand Talent: The Podcast"! We've recovered from 4/20 and are raring to go with a brand new interview episode!
This week, we have the distinct pleasure of interviewing Mike Lehtinen, an apprenticing luthier, live entertainment jack-of-all-trades, and the main merch man for the Chicago-based band and friend of the program, Mungion - follow them on YouTube, Bandcamp, IG, and wherever else you can find them!
In a quintessentially classic example of the power of music, Mike, Ducky & Steiner all became acquainted because of Mungion. In the interview, Mike and the boys talk about the genesis their friendship, Mike talks Mungion, being "that guy" at shows both with a home-field advantage as well as on the road, how he got into guitar-making and his luthier apprenticeship, and, of course, what "Secondhand Talent" means to him.
Please check out Ian Schneller's Chicago School of Guitar Making (www.specimenproducts.com), a wonderful school whose mission is to provide a solid foundation upon which students from all over the world can commence their luthiery studies, with lectures, demonstrations and hands-on work. Since its debut in 2005, thousands of students have taken classes at the school. The number of new Specimens quickly grew and now Ian has made more than 800 instruments, amps and horn speakers all by hand in his Chicago workshop. 2023 marks Specimen’s 37th anniversary!
