I had the pleasure of hosting up and coming artist Ian Santillano. He was warm and engaging, just like his soulful music. With a strong connection to soul music, his Pilipino heritage and sense of family connection, rooted in primary influences of John Mayer and D'Angelo, Ian creates music that is heartfelt and imaginative. We also want to pay tribute to a D'Angelo as he recently passed and not to forget to mention the passing of legendary bassist Anthony Jackson.

Also, a special appearance by Skeevy in the second hour of the show coming back to the studio for the first time since he broke his heel. He is on the mend, walking again returning to the Skeevy Side Show this coming Wednesday.

The 1% on top with all the wealth seek to subdivide us by creating and stoking conflict between us and keeping us fighting amongst ourselves. Because a unified nation is frightening to any government, but especially to those whose power lies behind the throne. The corporations are who rule. Politicians are (meat) puppets "chipping away at erroneous garbage which is as exciting as pudding deliciously spooned from the lap of the ludicrous into the mouths of questionless idiots licking their lips as their eyeballs are rolling and flapping their tongues as they're losing their marbles." (Meat Puppets)

Special thanks to new friends Lilly and Anthony who joined me in the studio last night. Openness to new connections is one of the ways we combat the bastards.
One Love. Light up the darkness.

Often the very thing that draws you to a person is the same thing that will drive you away. This is about bittersweet farewells for the most part. And a fond farewell to Rick Davies of Supertramp who passed at the age of 84. Goodbye Stranger, it's been nice. Hope you find your paradise.
