REFLECTIONS: A Really Interesting Trip

This REFLECTIONS episode is called A Really Interesting Trip.  One of the things I’ve come to appreciate over time is how this platform has expanded in ways that I never could have predicted. When I started the podcast, my focus was very clear. I’m a musician, and I wanted to have conversations with other musicians—people who had devoted their lives to their craft, who had stories to tell, and music to share. And that’s how it began. But something really interesting happened along the way. My guests began introducing me to other guests. Not just musicians, but actors, writers, directors, photographers, poets and other artists working in many different disciplines. And with each new conversation, the scope of the show began to expand. Not by design—but organically.  Listen to the story.
