Hosts: Lucy Kannan and Susan Kate with Lou Conrad

Today, we have with us John Cusimano & James “Roto” Rotondi of The Cringe, out of New York. Remaining band members, Shawn Pelton and Jonny Matias were unable to join us today. Learn lots of secrets about band during this interview! Some fans submitted questions for us to ask the band. There are a lot of mentions of food in this interview. One of the reasons may be that John Cusimano is married to TV cooking/talkshow host, Rachael Ray. Another reason is that the guys just REALLY enjoy their food, even to the point of blind-folded TASTE-TESTING!! By the way, this interview reveals that Roto has secret, supernatural gifts. Find out what they are! In fact, each band member adds quite interesting, individual dimensions to this Rock, Alternative, Indie band called The Cringe. Listen, learn, and enjoy! Buon appetito!!

Songs featured in this episode:
No Control
Where It Hurts
Hiding Space
Poison (Rachael Ray’s current fav of The Cringe)
