Undermine
Undermine is the definitive Phish podcast. New season coming soon, building on what we've done—seasons on Phish’s genesis in the 1980s, the Phish community, the Baker's Dozen, and Fall '97. Through deep-dives into the music, shows and songs; interviews with people who were there; and discussion about Phish's lasting impact. Undermine is presented by Osiris Media.
