Wall to Wall and Ten-Feet-Tall



Here's something crazy... this podcast is 10 years old! Say what? I seriously do not believe it. On January 23rd, 2010 I posted the first episode of 23min of Ska, not knowing what journey I was about to embark on. It was just a little side project to do when not working on the reality show podcast I was working on at the time. In fact, I wasn't sure if it should be 23 minutes or 15 minutes. To this day I'm still not sure, but 23 feels right. 

When I started it wasn't weekly, it was twice a month, with only one episode in January, so a new set of 23 episodes was starting on 1/23 each year. In my initial plans, I was going to do the show for 10 years, 2010 - 2020. Each year would have 23 episodes releases on the 11th and 23rd of each month after January. I still almost ended the show in 2016 when I get to the end of the original 9 sets of 23 episodes a process sped up by going weekly. I relented at the last minute because I love doing this show and thought that that would be too early to quit.

Now here I am, at my original ending day... and I still don't want to quit. January 23rd, 2020 was supposed to be the first time I was not going to post an episode based on that plan. Kind of glad I didn't. I'm more in love with ska and the ska community than I was when I started this show 10 years ago. This is the 18th set of 23 episodes, so we're well on our way to doubling the number of my original plans by mid-2020. After that... still not going to quit! So buckle up, there's still plenty of rad ska for me to share with you!
