Hop on the big blues bus for a ride like no other! This week on The Bus Stop Blues, Road Bill and Kevin “Shoeshine” Purcell welcome Paul and Tammy, the dynamic duo behind Main Street Outfitters (MSO) in Wauconda, IL—a bike shop turned bluesy juke joint that’s redefining local culture. It’s the first time we’ve featured a non-musician guest... and our first-ever duo interview!
We dive into:
-
The roots and rise of MSO as both a bike haven and music venue
-
Tales from the road with Paul and Tammy
-
Conversations about passion, community, and building a blues-fueled lifestyle
Plus, Road Bill and Kevin swap some new road stories, drop deep blues insights, and keep the vibe alive with laughs, history, and soulful grooves.

Intentionally Disturbing
Join me on this podcast as I navigate the murky waters of human behavior, current events, and personal anecdotes through in-depth interviews with incredible people—all served with a generous helping of sarcasm and satire. After years as a forensic and clinical psychologist, I offer a unique interview style and a low tolerance for bullshit, quickly steering conversations toward depth and darkness.
