Hello everyone, this week has been very busy, selling a house and finishing a degree at the same time. I wanted to release something today, however, so here is an episode of my interview podcast, interviewing The Blues Wizard in Bisbee, Arizona. If you'd like to learn more about this now defunct podcast, you can visit: www.bajapod.com

Growing up in California, The Blues Wizard (Keith Kifer) and I talk about how being a California kid impacted his interpretation of the blues, authenticity, and how he found acceptance in Clarksdale, Mississippi, a town steeped in Delta blues history.

Listen for these words today:

Got it made = “Got it made” is an expression. You say this expression when you want to say that someone has everything they could possibly want in life. Perhaps they are very comfortable, have a lot of success and don’t need to worry about money or too many other things. For example, “Wow, those people in Beverly Hills, California really got it made. They have swimming pools and big fancy cars. I mean, if you think those things bring happiness”.
