In partnership with WYSU, Peppermint Productions presents Rat Race: A Journey Through Youngstown Music History.

For one hour every Friday afternoon at 2pm, Rate Race takes you on a dive into the archives of Peppermint Productions’ more than 50-year history.  Episodes feature locally recorded music and conversations with the musicians that recorded them.Hosts Dean Anshutz (Red Wanting Blue, Kid Mammoth) and Anthony LaMarca (The War On Drugs, The Building) are both touring musicians who connected over a shared love for collecting records that were recorded locally.  That passion has led them to archiving and reissuing those recordings.  They both also engineer and produce new recordings alongside Peppermint founder, Gary Rhamy.

The complete archive of Rat Race episodes is available here on all podcasting platforms!
