The Quinn Spinn Since 2013, The Quinn Spinn has built a reputation for storytelling, based on an appreciation for music and an understanding of the creative grind.

We tell the stories of those daring enough to create, through conversations with musicians, entrepreneurs, and real humans who aspire to have a positive impact. Throughout its history, the Nashville-based podcast has released hundreds of episodes, featured guests from five different continents, and received thousands of music and interview submissions from artists all over the world. The Quinn Spi

nn was conceived by Gerard Longo, who christened himself with the college radio moniker of “The Quinn” at Moravian College (Bethlehem, PA), from 2007 until his graduation in 2010. It wasn’t until a few years later, however, that this passing activity would become something more. On August 17, 2013, Gerard had a rare Saturday night to himself. He decided to wind down by unearthing some episodes from the college run, hoping to dive into something enjoyable before the rat race of corporate America came calling again on Monday. However, it didn’t take long before this plan to wind down would backfire. As he was listening to these college-era episodes, Gerard remembered the show’s loyal listener base -- “maybe 10, 15 people tops” -- who would tune in and provide content every single week. As he remembered the fulfillment that came from this experience, Gerard found himself energized at the midnight hour. The fuse had been ignited.

“It was time to find my purpose,” he said. “I told myself that night that I didn’t care if it was the same 10 or 15 people. I just wanted to have an impact.”

A few weeks later, The Quinn Spinn’s first episode was released to SoundCloud on Sept. 8, 2013. From that point, the show has taken on various forms over the years, from the “full-cast, morning show” feel of its formative episodes, to the interview series it has become. The Quinn Spinn can now be heard on streaming platforms including Spotify, Apple Podcasts, Google Podcasts, Anchor, Stitcher, and many others. And, for as far as we’ve come, the show remains steadfast in its mission to tell the stories of those daring enough to create. Presently, The Quinn Spinn serves as the official podcast and point of origin for Nashville media company, Underground Music Collective (UMC). UMC offers a variety of multimedia services to artists in Nashville and beyond, while highlighting musicians and creative professionals worldwide on a daily basis. Let us be the first to greet you with a hearty HEY NOW!, as we invite you to with us, now and forever. Tune into The Spinn: https://anchor.fm/the-quinn-spinn/support

We didn't put out as many episodes as we'd have liked in 2025, mostly because we had to fit them in between so many wonderful adventures in this transformative year for Underground Music Collective.

Still, you showed up. You listened, you shared, and you followed. You supported us on this incredible ride that has been going strong for 12 years and counting.

For that, you have our gratitude.

We're making big plans for 2026, and those will be revealed in the coming weeks. For now, we just want to say thank you.

What are two middle aged uncs to do on a Sunday night, but hop on Zoom, record a podcast, and play some games!

We have a little bit of fun to open up the December action on The Quinn Spinn. We play a riveting game of “Would You Rather?” before Scotty quizzes The Quinn on a series of quotes, to determine whether they were said by an actual rockstar or AI…

Plus, we recap a monster October at Underground Music Collective, and give you a little Something For Your Ears with Limp Bizkit’s latest single, “Making Love to Morgan Wallen.”

Opening theme: REVEL 9 - All I've Become

NOTE: This episode is released in loving memory of our original ProFX12 mixer, which perished during the making of this episode after 11 loyal years of Quinn Spinn service. Unfortunately, these technical issues mean that a couple of AWESOME interviews were compromised beyond reasonable repair and did not make this episode, while parts of others may be missing. We look forward to re-doing those missed at the next available opportunity!

Anyway, here it is — the long-awaited conclusion to our trilogy from 2025!

This episode — coming to you from the final day of this year’s festival — touches on the creative journey, and the lessons it teaches us as we embark and continue on the path. We sit down with Co from , , of .artmakingsense, and .hippie, giving you a full view of Ontario’s creative landscape.

As we migrate to a new physical space heading into 2026, our episode production schedule may be a bit lighter over the next couple months.

However, this is an exciting step toward the future of the show and Underground Music Collective as a whole -- and we still have a few more episodes to roll out to you before the New Year!
