Episode 33 of Good Times, Noodle Salad sits down with special guest Drew Alkema for a grounded, honest conversation about chasing purpose through art while balancing real life. Drew talks about finding meaning in creativity, why acoustic guitar is wildly underrated and often overlooked, and what it’s like being a dad with a dream that refuses to die. The crew also digs into the nuts and bolts of building genuine relationships with local venues, showing up consistently, and carving out space in your scene without selling your soul. Thoughtful, funny, and relatable for anyone trying to create something while still paying the bills.
