Hey Derek and Sharon.
Love you guys and your podcast/radioshow, P.I.D.
Question:
WHO is the guy singing your show in and singing it out?
He has a raspy voice and repeats the line:

I can’t get that song out of my head.
I would love to know the name of the artist

Y’all know how to pick’em.
regards,
Tom
