Episode 242 - Crates, Bounty Hunters & DJ Uniq Thret

Ever wonder what it’s like to lug crates of vinyl, dodge bounty hunters, and be a DJ in a reggae band? Meet DJ Uniq Thret (Mark Franzen) – the man who went from being blown away by Mix Master Mike to scratching alongside P-Nuckle and helping crowds lose their minds.

This one has it all:

  • 🎶 How Mix Master Mike blew Mark’s mind and made him want to scratch records forever

  • 📦 Early 2000s DJ life = carrying 3,000 lbs of vinyl like CrossFit with better music

  • 🤯 That time the lead singer got hauled off by a bounty hunter right before a show, and Mark just jammed through it

  • 🎤 Mike’s fan fail: freezing on stage with his favorite reggae band and NO PHOTO

  • 🏄‍♂️ Why DJs need tables (and why some places… just… don’t)

  • 🕺 House, hip hop, reggae, and a crowd-reading sixth sense

  • 🐬 Fun facts: Cold stars, overthinking, and dolphins trained by the military (you can’t make this up)

Come for the scratching, stay for the bounty hunters.

Plus: house, reggae, hip hop, hiking, snowboarding, parenting, and dolphins trained by the military (yes, that’s a thing).

If you’ve ever set up a tripod on the beach to film yourself, this episode is for you.

Cheers!
