Episode 262: Cameron Schuyler & Michael Patti — From Ninja Turtles to Dirty Heads

🎙️BIG episode energy on this one.
First off—this was our first-ever live stream on Twitch, and yeah… we’re doing that every week now. No turning back.

We’re joined by the phenomenal and well-established reggae-rock scene artist, Cameron Schuyler, and the legendary reggae-rock scene veteran, Michael Patti–and somehow this episode turned into a perfect mix of art, music, origin stories, and absolute nonsense (as it should).

Mike’s been off all week and actually got to hang with Cameron and Patti before the show, which made this feel less like an interview and more like friends catching up—with microphones and a live chat watching 👀.

Cameron tells the wild story of how his career really started—connecting with Dirty Heads through Facebook, doing flyers and illustrations for bands, and selling his very first piece ever… to Dirty Heads. Word spread, things snowballed, and the rest is history. We go way back into Cameron’s origin story—from being “the guy who drew sketches for everyone” (mostly Ninja Turtles) to live painting on stage with DIRTY HEADS in front of a deafening, absolutely insane crowd.

Michael Patti brings a killer perspective on how the reggae genre has expanded—and then straight up exploded—over the last few decades. He also shares the very unsexy but very cool story of how The Pier actually started. Real talk, real grind.

Somewhere in the middle of all that:

  • Mike asks everyone their favorite karaoke song

  • Then randomly busts into The Humpty Dance

  • And we discover Mike has a deeply disturbing hidden talent—he sounds EXACTLY like Humpty 🤯

We also get into Cameron’s approach to commissions with bands, Patti gives Cameron his flowers (and rightfully so), and we talk about the many extra skills Cameron casually has because apparently being insanely talented in one lane wasn’t enough.

Things get even more interesting when Cameron shares his affinity for psilocybin mushrooms, plus his three separate interactions with three different Sublime members—who, plot twist… are fans.

We hit him with the island question we ask every new guest (you gotta tune in for that one), talk early inspirations like comic books, Ninja Turtles, and Alien, and even take a couple questions straight from the Twitch chat.

This one was fun, chaotic, genuine, and just an all-around great hang.
Hit play, crank it up, and welcome to the Twitch era. 🔥🎨🎶

Cheers!

Episode 249 – The Princess, the Pea & Giant Walking Robots

What happens when reggae jam bands, sleep disorders, and mouthwash conspiracies collide?
Mike and Tony unpack a wild week featuring Giant Walking Robots—a live show so funky it practically needed its own gravitational field. Tony reveals more about his upcoming album Huckleberry Surprise (dropping Nov 7 with a release party at Hangar 61 @ Peña Station 🍓), complete with secret acoustic guests, food trucks, and enough merch to clothe a small village.

Meanwhile, Mike’s sleep system has him living like royalty: one sheet, four pillows, zero tolerance for imperfection. The guys debate Listerine stroke rumors (?!), Tony’s fear of mystery infections, and why House MD taught us nothing useful about actual medicine.

Also: backyard hoops, childhood clarinets, band-nerd swagger, social-media beauty myths, and the eternal question—is The Rock really 6’5”?

Buckle up, friends, this was a fun one!

Cheers!
