Summary

We have been referencing this on the podcast for years and finally needed to give it its own episode. There is a video from 2012 of Dida Ritz performing at The Scorpio in Charlotte that we can’t stop queening out about. We spent 45 minutes breaking down (shutting it down, if you will) this epic 7 and a half minute performance. The truth is, we could have gone on longer.
