After a hiatus, Dave and Jim launch a new format for Season 4. Listen to updates on their meditation practice and current events in their lives. Bonus links: InsightTimer is a meditation app we both use and like a lot. In the episode, you'll hear discussion of Astral Travel - Theta Binaural Beats, a one hour music meditation that sent Jim to some strange new places. Try it yourself!

Dave and his daughter Leah talk about music and life.

The twisting, untold story of the shoulda-been-a-hit song "Locusts in October," which Jim wrote during his musical partnership with Jim Morris as the band "JOE". What does any of this have to do with Lionel Richie, Thom Williams, Brian Eno, and the legal profession? Listen and find out!

Dave and Jim talk about getting older. At what point in life do you become "old"? Can you be young and old at the same time? Does getting older always have to be a bad thing? Does it bring wisdom? Is it possible to live in the present without worrying too much about the future? Join us for a free wheeling discussion.

Dave, Jim & special guest / old bandmate Jim Morris discuss stories, dreams, and connections between our previous shows about Fear and Moving. Also included is the World Premier of the vintage track--"Clinging to the Noose" (words by Jim Esch,  music by Jim Morris)--from the band JOE's first tape, circa early 1980's.  

In todays offering, Jim and Dave discuss the topic of fear and meander all the way to Hamlet.  Dave weaves in a musical theme, a tribute to a musical giant.   Listener feedback welcomed!  Enjoy.
