Chocolate Milk: Episode 1

Chocolate milk is the treat that gives us a spark when we see it, yet we deny it. We rarely buy it in the grocery store. We remember childhood, smile quietly, and we pass it by. This series will be dedicated to all the music I've written or been a part of or even just heard, that never made the collection of "established" music. I want all musicians to have a place in this series because we all relate to this. Moments of music out in the wild...if we could bottle it, it would be chocolate milk Here's some chocolate milk. If you get it good. If you don't, who cares.

Moon Talk - Episode 2

The "Moon Talk" series is about years past...captured in another time with my friend Steve, in my early thirties, going back to college for the fourth time... faced with academic dogma which denied my world view ... when I was so hypercritical and perfectionist I refused to make anything public. Steve was a great intellectual shelter. Honest dude with real motivation to dig deeper. This is just an honest recording of me and Steve, in the rain, doing what we've done from the first day we met... being friends and talking about cool stuff. Enjoy.

Moon Talk - Episode 1

Steve Jeffress and I have been recording our conversations in philosophy since 2017. I never released them publicly… Starting now, and continuing through May, I will be releasing these back into the wild.  A nice little time capsule, and some good entertainment.  This is the first installment of “Moon Talk” from 2017. SHOW NOTE: There’s a Neil Degrasse Tyson clip here….in the clip Neil is trying to refute the validity of near death experiences.

God, Suffering, & David Bohm - Part II

In part II of the series we introduce the concepts of alienation and mystical experience in the life of David Bohm. EPISODE CLARIFICATION: Socrates’ daemon did NOT ask him to stand for execution. Instead, during the period of his imprisonment, when he had the opportunity to save himself, his daemon was silent. It was apparently remarkable for Socrates that his daemon stayed silent. And since it did not tell him to save himself, he didn’t. I consider this negative (or lack of) command, just as strong as a positive one.

The Sunset Sessions

All original material. Two of the songs are from dreams. The performance deeply flawed but the emotion gets across and maybe that’s the best you can hope for.

This introductory episode focuses on the relation of the transcendent, wholeness, and Quantum mechanics. I also briefly introduce the subject of the entire series, David Bohm.
