In between the RSD drops for 2021, we’re able to grab some time with our friend Lisa Foster, of Guestroom Records in Louisville, KY. A former communications and intersection of music and culture professor who made the pivot into the wild world of record store ownership. We talk everything from the pandemic, collections, misogyny, misconception, and the 2%, to why we actually appreciate the Crosley turntable and how humanity actually saved the record store.
