Branko Cosic was there, as was Liam, and it was part of a life-long love affair with Trails' hectic, barreling rock.

Hey everyone, we unfortunately have some bad news. After 5 years with Flawless, our treasured friend and co-host Grant Parkin has decided to step away from the podcast. We decided to spring a Farewell mini-episode on him, so if you've ever wondered what it would sound like to hear 3 grown adults barely keeping it together for 15 straight minutes, have we got an episode for you! Grant will always be a beloved part of the Flawless family and it won't be the same without him. We miss you already Grant!
