About This Podcast

OBNE Presents: Object Worship. A podcast about creative tools and the people who use them. In each episode, hosts Dan Pechacek and Andy Othling sit down with a creator, from musicians to engineers to visual artists, and ask them about a tangible object that’s been important in their journey. They’ll talk about the creative process, early inspirations, and the magic of tactility, all the while getting to know each other. As friends in the effects pedal corner of the music industry, Pechacek and Othling aim to capture the feeling of post-show chats, where technical deep dives and tangential absurdity are equally welcome.
