The Real Magic Mike is back for another Ukulele Underground Podcast. Aldrine answers some questions from a previous podcast where viewers asked how to properly hold the Ukulele if they play a smaller size (Concert or Soprano), or how to play while standing. This leads to a discussion about particularly difficult to hold ukuleles, and where your strumming/fingerpicking hand placement should be if you don't play a conventional ukulele? The "Best Sounding" Ukulele is brought up again, and the question of if Aldrine has tried this ukulele with a High G is asked. The guys also talk about Aldrine's Up Strum with his Thumb, and #Answerin5 questions about chord names and Aldrine and Mike's signature hats. The podcast ends with Mike saying where you can find him (and Kyle), the guys thanking Vets for their service, and reminding everyone that the Song Challenge is due by Next Week.
