Zach is my brother , and we chat about and google the current RIDICULOUS conspiracy theories surrounding the covid-19 outbreak. If you hate conspiracy theories, and the people who talk about them AT ALL, then here’s a piece of friendly advice…scroll on by. I’ll talk to anyone, even my dearly beloved brother! Try and stop me. My next chat with him is on “here’s what to listen to in 5 youtube links and why if you’re only gonna ever click on 5 YouTube links to learn about the blues” (as far as he’s gonna teach me in one podcast). Can’t wait. Enjoy!

I Talk with Victor about his life as a pannist and educator now during the covid-19 outbreak. He eventually convinces me to play “jazz.” First lesson: It’s not “jazz” to play the minor 3rd all the time, and I mean literally all the time as your starting note. Lesson learned.

Bill and I killed a bat, quite on purpose, in our living room, together, as one, when we lived in the same apartment in Akron during college. Bill is a wise percussionist living in Wisconsin. We have an illuminating conversation about politics and humans, but also talk about drums for exactly 1 minute. I WILL talk with Bill on our next episode about arranging music for other instruments. (ie. Bach for marimba, Chopin for double second steel drums, etc.)

Mike and I talk being forced to ply your craft (in his case, magic and comedy) strictly online. We also talk about online culture. We fight about it, but like brothers fight. I would never admit publicly that I learned something from him.
