  1. Alabama's Finest - Winston Ramble

    21시간 전

    Alabama's Finest - Winston Ramble

    Winston Ramble is the best rock band you may not have seen or heard as of yet, and you should get on that. From Northwest Alabama, these players have been laying down original rock and roll tracks, and have put out several singles and EP's, showcasing their musical talents. They have an incredible range, and it is reflective in their music, and in the covers that they put out as 'Heaters'.  We discuss their musical influences, talk about their rigs, and discuss the resurgence of Bluegrass and Jam Grass. We also talk about their numerous albums, EP's, and singles - and discuss the current state of the music industry from an artist's perspective.  The guys expand on their desire to continue playing genuine musical performances, and how the industry has changed in the new era of social media. We talk about some of their favorite venues to play, before putting the guys on the spot with their 'desert island album picks'. Go check them out in Huntsville, AL on 5/30 - this is a band you do not want to miss.  Thanks guys! It was a pleasure to meet you - and I can't wait to see all of you real soon!

    Cameron Williams (Tishamingo, The Black Creek Band & SCAM)

    It was truly a pleasure to sit down with one of my favorite musicians and storytellers. If you've been in the music 'scene' as long as I have, you came to understand the powerful musicianship of Cameron Williams over his lengthy music career. This was a special episode - and I am happy to share it with you! We discuss living in the Colorado mountains, his introduction to music at an early age via the piano and ukulele, and his eventual bands Black Creek Band and Tishamingo.  We take a trip down memory lane as we discuss other bands that were prominent on the Athens, GA (and southeast more broadly) music scene, and talk about working with John Keane, his friendship with Eric Carter, Eric Martinez, Betsy Franck, Sam Holt, and others.  We chat about his songwriting process, and where he finds inspiration to write and perform. Cameron talks about 'SCAM' (Sam and Cam) performances at the Moontime Market and elsewhere, and gives a sneak-peek into an upcoming Home Team BBQ 20th anniversary show this fall that will feature a powerhouse of musicians, headlined by Paul Cauthen.  Thank you so much Cameron for your time - it was truly a pleasure to hear about your musical career journey!

    Princess Zambi - Drew Walley

    Come on in - you're all welcome here - have a seat! Sat down with Drew to discuss growing up in California, and a chance childhood Grateful Dead concert that would change her life. We discuss her passion for music (Bass) and her musical influences - Paul McCartney and Phil Lesh. We chat about her band 'Zambi' and the 'intention' of music as prescribed by Col. Bruce Hampton. We discuss how the jam band 'scene' has changed for good and bad over the past decade, and her life in the LGBTQ community in Asheville, NC.  We talk about her recent confirmation at the Trinity Episcopal Church in Asheville, and the importance of Faith in her life.  We wrap things up with a discussion around Widespread Panic's album 'Everyday' - and why that studio album is both of our favorites.  Reach out to Drew on her socials: (1) Facebook Instagram Song Credit: 'The Light' - Zambi - ℗ 2026 Zambi/Drew Walley 'Shakedown Street (Live at Cornell University, Ithaca, NY 5/16/81)' - Grateful Dead - off the album '30 Trips Around the Sun: The Definitive Live Story (1965-1995) - ℗ 2015 Grateful Dead Productions 'Hatfield' - Widespread Panic - off the album 'Everyday' - ℗ 1993 Volcano Entertainment III, LLC 'No Egos Underwater' - Col Bruce Hampton & the Aquarium Rescue Unit - off the album 'Mirrors of Embarrassment' - ℗ 1993 Volcano Entertainment III, LLC Send us Fan Mail https://youtube.com/@trueconversationpodcast?si=VdO2X40A6rsn1HAv

    Dancing on the Rail w/ Maya Thatch

    Happy to share a conversation I had with new friend of the show - Maya Thatch! Fresh off of the Phish Sphere shows, we discuss her love of Live music, which comes in the form of Phish and Goose, among others. We discuss growing up in California, and her subsequent move to the mid-west for college, and eventual move to her new home of Colorado. We dive into a brief meeting she had with Rick Mitarotonda, her trip to Viva El Gonzo in 2025, the transformation of Goose with the addition of Cotter after the departure of Jeff and Ben, and what inspired her to become a social media influencer with dance videos over Jam music.  We also discuss emotions that come with songs that speak to all of us - and visit a couple of songs that are special to Maya.  Maya brings an amazing energy to the Jam scene, and her videos make us smile every time she posts. Thank you for what you do, Maya. Don't. Stop. You empower women (and all of the Jam community) with your dance and vulnerability.  Follow Maya Thatch at her socials: Instagram http://www.youtube.com/@MayaThatch Facebook Song Credit: 'Big Modern>Wysteria Lane' - Goose - Live from The Masonic, San Francisco, CA - 5/58/25 - 2025/05/28 The Masonic, San Francisco, CA | Goose 'Cities' - Phish - Live from Sphere, Las Vegas, NV 4/25/26 'Thatch' - Goose - GLC Live at 20 Monroe, Grand Rapids, MI - 2/15/25 - 2025/02/15 GLC Live at 20 Monroe, Grand Rapids, MI | Goose 'Elmeg The Wise' - Goose - The Mann, Philadelphia, PA - 104/25 - 2025/10/04 The Mann, Philadelphia, PA | Goose 'Doc Brown' - Goose - GLC Live at 20 Monroe, Grand Rapids, MI - 2/14/25 - 2025/02/14 GLC Live at 20 Monroe, Grand Rapids, MI | Goose Send us Fan Mail https://youtube.com/@trueconversationpodcast?si=VdO2X40A6rsn1HAv

    Health, Wellness, and a Beautiful Life - with Priscilla Tofte

    Happy to introduce you to Priscilla Tofte - new friend of the show - and our new personal Somatic Breathwork practitioner. Hailing from her new home in Asheville, NC - we had a post-weekend-visit interview to talk about her life, her professional work as a Life Coach and Wellness professional. We discuss growing up in Portland, ditching her corporate career for a more centered Life that grew out of a friend's recommendation to take up a career as a Life Coach, and discuss our session this week in which I got to explore somatic breathwork. It was a fantastic session, and I really look forward to the next! In recognition of Mental Health Awareness Month, we also discuss the Trump administration's plan to fast-track the research, review, and approval of psychedelic 'drugs' for treating a number of mental health conditions. Still a lot of roadblocks to that end, but we discuss the potential impact that the new treatment options would have for a broad set of use cases. We also discuss what led her to start the Facebook group - Climb to Safety - which provides a safe space for people to give and receive love of all kinds. Climb to Safety marks its 7th anniversary this year, and Priscilla also hints at plans to take Climb to Safety to the broader community, outside of the digital world of Facebook.  Please connect with her on Facebook and Instagram - and thank you so much Priscilla - I am excited to watch your client base grow in the mountains of North Carolina and beyond! https://www.instagram.com/prisc.tofte?utm_source=ig_web_button_share_sheet&igsh=ZDNlZDc0MzIxNw== https://www.instagram.com/souljourndaily?utm_source=ig_web_button_share_sheet&igsh=ZDNlZDc0MzIxNw== Facebook Song Credit: 'Climb to Safety' - Widespread Panic - off the album 'Carbondale 2000 (Live)' - - - ℗ 2024 Widespread Records 'We Walk Each Other Home' - Widespread Panic - off the album 'Snake Oil King' - ℗2024 Widespread Records Send us Fan Mail https://youtube.com/@trueconversationpodcast?si=VdO2X40A6rsn1HAv

    Livin' Her Best Life - Rosie - Host of the Podcast 'Boogie on Rosie Woman'

    Met a new friend in our scene - Rose Marie De Leon-Nogueras - and after much laughter at the memes she posts on FB and IG - I HAD to get her on the show. Her life story is one of Love, Loss, and Rebirth, and she is in fact, now living her best life. She was gracious enough to share her story with me, and I was excited to hear about her volunteer work with Divided Sky, her love for The Grateful Dead and Phish, and her love for Cincinnati Reds baseball.  We discuss a chance meeting with Bootsy Collins, which led to a relationship with Patti Collins, and we touch on the interview she had on Patti's show - 'Is Anybody Out There?'.  I'm really happy to call Rosie a friend - and am especially thankful for having the opportunity to hear her story. She's on a mission to help others that may be struggling with addiction, abusive relationships, or anyone out there looking for help in overcoming adversity. Go check her out on her podcast below - and follow her on the Socials for some good laughs!  Thank you Rosie - can't wait until the next time we link up again for a chat!
