This week’s episode falls on a very special day for the audiophiles, the crate-diggers, and the music obsessed. It is Record Store Day, and we are celebrating in the best way possible.

Joining us is a man who has turned his passion for vinyl into a Western New York institution. Phil Machemer started his journey in 2010 selling records out of his garage. Fast forward to today, and he’s the owner of Revolver Records, operating the two largest shops in the region.

His Elmwood Village location isn’t just a store; it’s a vital Buffalo venue where local and national acts take the stage every week. On top of running a vinyl empire, Phil is a proud father of three and was recently inducted into the Niagara Wheatfield Senior High School Wall of Fame in 2025.
