Through the Tunnel featuring Tunnels End

Northern Virginia rock band Tunnels End joins PodcastNV to talk about the story behind their name, and what it means to chase the “light at the end of the tunnel” as grown‑up musicians. They break down how each member joined the band from Dale City Music, The Light Horse gigs, and Bandmates. Plus they discuss how their in‑house studio and “rehearse, don’t practice” rule keep their high‑energy live shows tight. From Motown and Sublime to Rush, pop‑punk, emo, and modern heavy bands, they reveal how that mix shapes their cover‑heavy sets, medleys, and crowd‑driven show design.

Mack the Knife featuring Mackenzie Ryan

Arlington‑based musician and restaurateur Mackenzie Ryan returns to PodcastNV to share how she went from hospitality marketing to co‑owning Brass Rabbit in Clarendon and building a bar known for live music, a packed patio, and its viral fries‑and‑Caesar “girl dinner.” She gets candid about losing her voice to severe vocal nodules, months of speech therapy, canceling a dream gig at The Hamilton in DC, and the long road back to finally playing that legendary underground room. Mackenzie and the crew trade stories about unexpected bar‑ownership headaches (equipment failures, big repair bills), a surreal Hot 99.5 shoutout from Intern John, the infamous power‑drill broken nose while assembling IKEA furniture for the bathrooms, and her next chapter as a songwriter finishing a long‑hidden Shania‑style country anthem.s PLUS: Listener Feedback Same Name This or That Find Mackenzie - Website: mackryanmusic.com Instagram: @themackenzieryan Bar: Brass Rabbit – Clarendon, VA Check out PodcastNV - Website: podcastnv.com Instagram: @podcastrnv TikTok: @podcast.nv

While Brian is off cruising through the cool, scenic ocean, Tim and Bacon fire up a special “not-quite PodcastNV” hangout episode: Cruisin’.

From there, the episode shifts into the production side of PodcastNV with a deep dive into Bacon’s “Same Name” game and the new intros he’s been building. They play and react to multiple style variations—] The conversation also turns to “song of the summer” energy: the tracks and vibes that feel like they’re defining this season, how certain songs instantly become personal soundtracks for late-night drives and outdoor hangs, and how these choices shape the PodcastNV universe.
