Alex Lifeson has spent decades shaping the soundtrack of millions of lives, but this conversation isn't about reliving the glory days. 

We talk about creativity, staying curious, the evolution of being an artist, and how life changes when the spotlight fades but the passion never does. Alex shares stories from a career unlike any other, reflects on the friendships that have carried him through it all, and reminds us why making music is about so much more than fame. 

Whether you've been listening since the early days of RUSH or you're simply fascinated by the people behind the music, this is an honest, thoughtful conversation with one of rock's most influential guitarists-- and one of its most grounded human beings. 

Pull up a chair. You're about to spend some time with Alex Lifeson.
