Hosted by Sam — two hours a week spent asking people what music has done to them.
with Henry Strauch
Can a song get better based on where you heard it? We talk about this phenomenon in ski movies. He has one song he puts on at the top of every descent, bike or skis. The episode starts with bluegrass and what it does to a person. Next is being in a band in college, including the song that started a movement. We close with more ways out of a music funk. Somewhere in the middle I started noticing how much our listening overlaps, which is always a sweet feeling.

My dad on the show, going through his life in order — growing up in California, the car rides to school, the Air Force Academy, the one and only rock concert the Academy ever hosted, the flying, the skiing, and meeting my mom. This one is for the books.
Another solo one — the year is going faster than I expected, wondering what the big idea is, whether any of this is overkill, and landing again on how lucky I am to live where I live. Then the practical half: what I actually do when I'm in a music funk and nothing I put on is landing.
Dolly Parton passed away this week. Beyond saying so, this one is mostly music — a random set, not much talking.

Nick's back for a second go. He's a buddy of mine, an entrepreneur, and the kind of outdoorsman who owns the right gear for all of it — hog in the garage, twin tips in the truck, hair that gets its own glacier clay. Two hours mostly on house, and on flow state: the thing he's chasing down a run, inside a build, and halfway through making something. How Nick started his company "Capture" through the need to brain dump.
