Jack Maxwell is a world traveler, actor, and television presenter from Boston, MA. Jack had a very successful show on the Travel Channel, The Booze Traveler, which ran for over 60 episodes through four seasons. Suddenly, Jack’s world was upended by a diagnosis with Non-Hodgkin’s Lymphoma, which he fought successfully.

In the course of his cancer treatments, Jack was introduced to CBD oil, which was effective for him. That began a new inquiry into the current state of medical marijuana, and ultimately the development of a new show, The High Road with Jack Maxwell.

Jack’s story is an incredible one of persistence, grit, talent and determination. You can follow Jack on @SouthieJack.

"It represents community, partnership, collaboration." 

In Pittsburgh's northside district, Al Grasso and his partners are not only building a craft brewery and tap house, they are building a community in a neighborhood not far from where they grew up.   It is, in many ways, a classic Pittsburgh story.  Kids grow up, they leave, they return and they stay for the long haul.  

The founders of Allegheny City Brewing are doing the hard work, making connections with and between patrons that will endure long term.

Solo: A Star Wars Story debuted on May 25th and Bryan and Dave break the film down in detail. There are spoilers in this review, so you have been warned! Our man in Dearborn, Michigan brings his unusual level of detail to his analysis and levity ensues.

District 97 is a modern progressive rock band from Chicago that brings a lot to the table.

They are currently out on tour celebrating the band’s tenth anniversary and working out new material for their upcoming fourth studio album.

D97 is running a Kickstarter campaign to fund the production of their next album. To support that effort (and you should!) GO HERE.

Today, we get a chance to (virtually) ride in the van with the band on tour somewhere in upstate New York on their way to their next show.

The D97 track you hear at the beginning and end of the episode are excerpts of Snow Country, from the band's recent album, In Vaults.

Intro and Outro Solo drums performed by Bryan Tuk, engineered by Kevin Soffera at Hybrid Studios, Nazareth, PA.
