This episode features host Daren Lake's music brother from another mother - Symbol aka Symbolizm. He has a new album - out now, titled "Empathy". It's a concept album based around a love story during the civil rights movement. They sat down with him in his home outside of Washington, DC and got into some pretty deep stuff. They spoke about their story in the music industry, Symbol's personal music story, melody/harmonies, health care, mindfulness, fear, becoming the peanut butter to someone's jelly, empathy, compassion, and more!
