We're honored this week to have the one and only Steve Kimock as our guest! While one can say that his genre is rock, no one niche has ever confined him. Instead, through the years, he’s explored various sounds and styles based on what’s moved him at the time, whether it’s blues or jazz; funk or folk; psychedelic or boogie; gypsy or prog-rock; traditional American or world fusion.

Threaded through this expansive and highly nuanced musical landscape is Kimock’s signature sound, the prodigious product of his ability to articulate crystal-clear tone, melody and emotion into intricately woven music crafted with technical brilliance. His passion and devotion to performing live is matchless, and his unparalleled ability to embrace and capture his audiences musically is the stuff of legends.

We talk to Steve about his journey in music, finding solace in 'something different', the experience of the music, what it feels like to play music with his Son, the Beat Generation, and a ton more!

This week's 'Heads Talking' takes on the hard hitting news.

We talk about the psychology of bringing bugs into Wally World, the rights of the bugs themselves, our own fears surrounding pests, and give some little knows tips and info on the dreaded bedbug. 

We also dive mouth first into a story from Fortune.com entitled 'Peak Plant Based Ice Cream Is Here' written by Naomi Tonky on 1/1/2020. We dig into the new fad of plant based meats and foods, tending the part of the garden you can reach, doing your part, and why ice cream rules!

This morning we woke to news that my Dad had graduated from Earth. We had another episode ready for you all but No Simple Road has always been honest, open, real conversations. We're jumping in head first into the grief process with the NSR Family listening. We talk about what has happened, what we're feeling right now, and what you all mean to us followed by the one and only interview of my Dad, Jerry Schafer, on the show.

In the 1960's Las Vegas was just blossoming from a mob gambling mecca into the Entertainment Capitol of the World. My Dad helped in making that town what it is today by creating show after show, bringing the biggest names in show business to town, and actually creating the 'afternoon' Las Vegas extravaganza! 4 marriages, 6 Sons, multiple Grand kids and Great Grand kids, this was a spectacular life.... we wouldn't be doing this without him. So... this one is for you Dad!
