Episode 085 kicks off with the return of STS9's ALANA ROCKLIN! The beloved bassist delivered one of this program's most popular conversations [#66, Spring 2023]; Rocklin was kind enough to come back for another round, a shorter interview recorded mid-Feb.2025 aboard Jam Cruise 21. We linked up on my cabin balcony for a discussion that covered the band's long-awaited return to The Boat (and Alana's maiden voyage!), new Sector 9 compositions and their forthcoming LP, curating intentional setlists and introducing material in the live element, the post-pandemic current touring model, live music bringing people together in tough times, and more! 0:00 - ep.085 preview 3:30 - sponsor - OM Festival 5:30 - The Upful Update 10:30 - introducing ALANA ROCKLIN 14:30 - interview w/Alana [33 min] 47:30 - afterglow > CORNFLOWER spot 52:10 - introducing ASHER FULERO 56:10 - interview w/ Asher [62 min] 1:57:45 - sign-off, ViBE Junkie Jamz Alana's chat is chased with a lengthier convo featuring Portland, OR's virtuosic keyboardist/producer/composer ASHER FULERO.

You're in for a treat with this episode. I found Adama through a short clip on Instagram, and it cut through the noise like a knife. I knew that I had to connect with her. Adama has been helping raise consciousness on this planet for over 40 years. She lives what she preaches, and you can feel the depth of this embodiment with every word. Adama is a force of nature, and after our conversation, I felt like I was walking on water. You will, too. If you don't know her work, buckle up. About After earning a B.A. in Psychology from the University of Florida, along with Presidential and Scholastic Honors, I returned to Atlanta to study Conscious Cosmic Citizenship with African elder Josiah Osuagwu from 1982 to 1985, continuing private tutelage for 17 years. My focus was on Creator-Knowledge, Creation-Knowledge, and Self-Knowledge as essential for Liberation and Emancipation, aiming to reorient, regenerate, and re-educate individuals and collectives about their roles in Conscious Living. In 1984, I began performing with SOLAR at the New Orleans World Fair and as a solo artist in 1985, using rhythm, movement, and verse to inspire audiences. My performances include appearances with the Staple Singers, Melba Moore, and Aisha Khalil, as well as at major venues like Fox Theater, Emory University, and the National Black Arts Festival, along with radio interviews on WDET and WRFG. I consulted for the Wholistic Stress Control Institute, teaching life skills and poetry to youth in Atlanta, including over 2,000 young people in 1999 through various youth centers and schools. I also served as president and co-owner of Mother Earth's Adornments, Inc., which offered custom adornments, vegan cuisine, and spiritual consultation. I currently produce and host the radio program "The Meeting of The Inner Circle" on 89.3FM WRFG Atlanta, providing inspirational programming on liberation, resurrection, and life-support. As a strict vegetarian for over forty years, I am also an Inspirational Lifestyle Change and Wholistic Wellness Consultant, helping others with spiritual and nutritional support for healing and regeneration. As CEO of Integrity Global Enterprises, Inc., I produce Mother Earth's Blessing products, including healing clays, oils, and herbal teas. I also run the Mother Earth's Blessing Wholistic Life Center, which offers coaching, classes, and empowerment sessions. The center focuses on disease reversal, cleansing, and cellular regeneration. I also provide numerological and destiny card readings and aim to inspire action against destructive industries through live streams and documentaries promoting conscious living.

The beginning of April in 1994 marked the start of a stretch that may go down as one of the most important runs in Pearl Jam's history. It all starts with the Fox Theater show in Atlanta that everybody knows, and then shortly afterward the news of Kurt Cobain's death shocked the world. Pearl Jam would go on to play a legendary show at the Orpheum Theater and then shortly after, they are front and center on Saturday Night Live. This show we're covering here is from Rochester that took place the day before Cobain's death was announced. After a few instances of playing through some tough off stage issues in the middle of the tour, this was during a run where the band was on a big time hot streak. This show has some notable moments that makes it stand out among the others from this tour. Wash was the show opener, something that was so rare for the time that they had only done it once all tour. On top of that, it's a big highlight from this show. This night features the second version of Corduroy ever played. We'll break that down into detail and discuss how some of the identity remains the same as today, but little tweaks afterwards have made it more of a showstopping performance. And we'll talk about Ed's quote in reaction to the real story about Jeremy. Many great performances, and stories from our Patron Robert Rieb who requested this episode!

He also touches on the opening of Nevada's first legal marijuana consumption lounge, signaling a shift in cannabis regulations in the state. Finally, Larry addresses the proposal to add Female Orgasmic Disorder (FOD) as a qualifying condition for medical marijuana use in Illinois, reflecting evolving perspectives on cannabis as a therapeutic option for various health conditions. Grateful DeadMarch 18, 1977 (47 years ago)Winterland, S.F.Grateful Dead Live at Winterland Arena on 1977-03-18 : Free Borrow & Streaming : Internet Archive TITLE: 1977 Winterland: The Dead Bust Out Fire On The Mountain and Take Their One and Only Attempt At Terrapin Flyer. Just a month after the Swing Auditorium show that we previewed a few weeks ago, Dead went home to Winterland for a string of shows. This one stands out for a few reasons that we will get to as the show goes on. INTRO: Sugaree Track #4 7:25 – 9:05 "Sugaree" is a song with lyrics by long-time Grateful Dead lyricist Robert Hunter and music by guitaristJerry Garcia.[1] It was written for Jerry Garcia's first solo album Garcia, which was released on January 20, 1972. As with the songs on the rest of the album, Garcia plays every instrument himself except drums, played by Bill Kreutzmann, including acoustic guitar, bass guitar, and an electric guitar played through a Leslie speaker. Released as a single from the Garcia album, "Sugaree" peaked at #94 on the Billboard Hot 100 in April 1972 and was Garcia's only single ever on that chart.Elizabeth Cotten, a North Carolinafolksinger, wrote and recorded a song called "Shake Sugaree" in 1966.[3] The chorus of Cotten's song is "Oh lordie me/Didn't I shake sugaree?" Hunter was aware of this song when he wrote "Sugaree."The song was first performed live by the Grateful Dead on July 31, 1971, at the Yale Bowl at Yale University, as was the song "Mr. Charlie". The Dead played it 362 times in concert. Last played on July 8, 1995 at Soldier Field in Chicago. A classic rocking Dead tune, usually a first set number, I've seen it as a show opener, first set closer, and encore. In this clip they really rock it but it's only a small peak at this 15 minute version of the tune. Well worth pulling it down on Archive and checking out the entire number. You won't be sorry. SHOW No. 1: Peggy-O Track #6 4:20 – 6:00 Traditional, credit for the Grateful Dead version generally go to Jerry but some say Bill had a hand in writing it. This song derives from the earlier Scottish traditional song Bonnie Lass of Fyvie-o. Fyvie is thought to have been a staging post between Aberdeen and Fort George in Scotland. This song does occur with a number of title variations. It is possible that Fennario is a corruption of Fyvie-o.Similar traditional songs also occurred in the UK; Handsome Polly O and Bonny Barbara O, though these are less similar to the modern Peggy-O song.The title Peggy-O is used on Grateful Dead recordings. The version of Peggy-O that is included in the Jerry Garcia box set All Good Things is a previously unreleased studio recordings from Spring 1979 and is given the title Fennario. The Fennario title is also used on concert recordings of The Dead and Phil Lesh & Friends.Although not released on a Dead studio album, the song was included on the remastered recordings of both Terrapin Station and Go To Heaven.The Grateful Dead first performed Peggy-O in December 10, 1973 at the Charlotte Coliseum in N.C.. It was then played in every year through to 1995 usually no more than a dozen times each year though it was played more regularly during the 1977 to 1981 period. Played a total of 265 times. The last performance was on July 5, 1995 at the Riverport Amphitheatre in Maryland Heights, MO (just outside of St. Louis).In this clip, I really enjoy Jerry's strong voice, the solid jamming and some stealth piano contributions from Keith. SHOW No. 2: Fire On The Mountain Track # 9 1:46 – 3:30 Hunter/Hart (not Jerry!) Released on Shakedown Street on November 8, 1978, last song on first side of album. First time ever played – one of the reasons I chose this show over a number of other great shows on this date – others include a smokin “early” Dead show in 1967 at Winterland and 1971 at the Fox Theater in St. Louis coming fast on the heels of the Dead's epic six night Capitol Theater run in Port Chester in late February. This is another of those songs with a long and complicated genesis story, perhaps not worth getting into too much detail about here, but the rough outlines at least are important to note. The lyrics, according to Robert Hunter in Box of Rain, were “Written at Mickey Hart's ranch in heated inspiration as the surrounding hills blazed and the fire approached the recording studio where we were working.”Hart, credited with the music for the song, recorded a proto-rap version of the song for an unreleased album entitled Area Code 415, recorded in 1972 and 1973. It was also included on a Mickey Hart album entitled Fire on the Mountain, recorded in 1973-74. It appeared as an instrumental entitled “Happiness is Drumming” on Hart's 1976 studio album, Diga. And it finally began showing up in the Grateful Dead repertoire, sung by Jerry Garcia, in 1977, undergoing a number of variants of the lyrics until it settled into the form that was eventually recorded and released on Shakedown Street, in November 1978. There's a lot of other detail I haven't mentioned—possibly worthy of some historian taking it apart piece by piece, but you get the rough idea.On March 18, 1977 at Winterland Arena, San Francisco. "Fire" appeared for the first time, closing the first set, following its eternal partner, "Scarlet Begonias." This combination of tunes, which frequently enclosed some wonderful jamming, came to be known as "Scarlet Fire." There were a handful of occasions on which “Fire” appeared without “Scarlet Begonias,” but not many. approx 15 out of the total 253 performances. It remained steadily in the repertoire from then on, and was played for the final time on July 2, 1995, at the Deer Creek Music Center in Noblesville, Indiana.This clip being the song's first live performance and almost a year and half before it's commercial release, there are noticeable differences between this version and the one we al know and love. But they go there very quickly as only two months later on May 8, 1977 the Dead played the Barton Hall show that many declare to be the best Dead show ever. While that may or may not be true, what is true is that the version of Scarlet Fire is awesome and certainly befitting a show many do consider to be the finest Dead show of them all.Many more were to follow and the lucky ones who were in Winterland this night got to witness how it all started. SHOW No. 3: Terrapin Flyer Alhambra Track # 17 :53 – end INTO Drums Track # 18 Start – 0:44 This is another reason I chose this show for today's episode. This represents the only known instance of the Dead playing the Terrapin Flyer part of the full Terrapin Suite from the Album (released on July 27, 1977) out of the traditional parts. Although Jerry does not sing the lyrics from this part of the suite, he jams the very distinctive melody. Interestingly, this is only a few weeks after the debut of Terrapin at the Swing Auditorium on Feb. 26, 1977. Here, the Dead were trying out this sixth of seven parts of the suite and for whatever reason did not like what they heard or didn't enjoy playing it or, more likely, practicing it, so it was dropped from live performances even though the primary and opening parts of the suite, Lady with a Fan into Terrapin Station, were played a total of 303 times. These are the fun little discoveries that even after 40+ years of listening to, following and learning about the band keep it fun, interesting and amazing. As for the recording of the entire suite, Keith Olsen was chosen to produce and the band temporarily moved to Los Angeles, as Olsen preferred to work at Sound City, where he had recently achieved success producing Fleetwood Mac's 1975 comeback album. Olsen had a method for reining in the Dead: "During the cutting of the basic tracks it was pretty hard to get every member of the band in the studio at the same time ... so [Steve] Parish went out to the hardware store and got these giant nails and a great big hammer and as soon as everybody was in, he hammered the door shut from the inside ... we didn't have drifters from the other studios coming in to listen. We didn't have people leaving to go screw around elsewhere. We started getting work done."[18] With Fleetwood Mac, Olsen had a hands-on approach, orchestrating the addition of Lindsey Buckingham and Stevie Nicks and influencing song choice, arrangements and sequencing. He entered the Grateful Dead project with similar expectations, imagining a concept album or song cycle. Olsen said that Davis told him "I need a commercial record out of them."[18] This caused some friction during the sessions as well as with the end results. Kreutzmann said "He'd have us play the same thing over and over again, and we're not really the type of band that can put up with that. ... Our very identity is based on the opposite principle."[ SHOW No. 4: Not Fade Away Track # 19 14:00 – 15:40 Written by Buddy Holly and Norman Petty. Holly and the Crickets recorded the song in Clovis, New Mexico, on May 27, 1957, and it was released as a single (B side to “Oh Boy”) on October 27, 1957 on the Brunswick label. The rhythmic pattern of "Not Fade Away" is a variant of the Bo Diddley beat, with the second stress occurring on the second rather than third beat of the first measure, which was an update of the "hambone" rhythm, or patted juba from West Africa. Jerry Allison, the drummer for the Crickets, pounded out the beat on a cardboard box.[3] Allison, Holly's best friend, wrote some of the lyrics, though his name never appeared in the songwriting credits. Joe Mauldin played the double bass on this recording. It is likely that the backing vocalists were Holly, Allison, and Niki Sullivan, but this is not known for certain. First played by the Dead on February 19, 1969 at the Fillmore West in S.F., it was played by the band a total of 561 times and last played on July 5, 1995 at the Riverport Amphitheatre outside of St. Louis. This is an absolutely ripping version of this tune so much so that I featured only the jam – everyone knows the lyrics, but the jam in this 20 minute version is better than any singing I could have featured. OUTRO: Around and Around Track 21 4:59 – 6:46 Very appropriate to end on a Chuck Berry tune given that today is the seventh anniversary of Chuck's death in 2017 at the age of 90. "Around and Around" is a 1958 rock song written and first recorded by Chuck Berry. It originally appeared under the name "Around & Around" as the B-side to the single "Johnny B. Goode". Release on March 31, 1958 on Chicago's own Chess Records checking in at a brisk 2:20. Many bands have covered the song including, most famously, the Rolling Stones and David Bowie, and, of course the Dead who played it 418 times, first on November 8, 1970 at the Capitol Theater in Port Chester, NY and lastly on July 6, 1995 at the Riverport Amphitheatre outside of St. Louis – very appropriate since Chuck was born in St. Louis and died in Wentzville, just outside of the city. This is one of the better version of the tune that I have heard. It checks in at over 8 minutes and the boys just jam it out, throw in a few false endings and finally wrap it up, followed only by Uncle John's Band before the boys say goodnight to the Winterland crazies and head home for a rare post show night in their own beds. .Produced by PodConx Deadhead Cannabis Show - https://podconx.com/podcasts/deadhead-cannabis-showLarry Mishkin - https://podconx.com/guests/larry-mishkinRob Hunt - https://podconx.com/guests/rob-huntJay Blakesberg - https://podconx.com/guests/jay-blakesbergSound Designed by Jamie Humiston - https://www.linkedin.com/in/jamie-humiston-91718b1b3/Recorded on Squadcast

With Denise Ilitch, podcaster and President of Ilitch Enterprises When you grow up in one of the most influential and successful families in the country, your family name and reputation precede you. People may feel they know you before you've even been introduced. While a family name can open doors and expose you to amazing opportunities, there is also the inherited weight of that family legacy. Denise Ilitch recalls how her parents invested their life savings in a little pizza store in Garden City, Michigan. Although it was a big risk, that purchase eventually became the fastest-growing pizza franchise in America. It paved the way for what is now one of the most successful global enterprises in the world. Today, the Ilitch family empire includes two major league sports teams, several entertainment complexes, and extensive real estate holdings. Mike and Marian Ilitch never took their success for granted and believed in the importance of giving back to those less fortunate. They first opened the Little Caesars Love Kitchen in 1985 as a way to aid disaster victims and feed the hungry. To date, more than 6.5 million meals have been provided to those in need. Founded in 2000, the Ilitch Charities organization made it possible to do more and they've donated thousands of volunteer hours and $250 million to worthy causes in support of community programs. From an early age, Denise was taught to prioritize hard work and the importance of giving back. When her father would ask, “What did you contribute to the world today?” there was never any doubt as to what was expected of her and Denise embraced that challenge fully. Today, Denise is considered one of the most influential businesswomen in America. Over the past 30 years, she has distinguished herself as a respected business leader, an advocate for women and children, an outspoken community leader, and a philanthropist. She's also a mother and devoted Grandmother. In addition to her duties as President of Ilitch Enterprises, LLC, Denise will launch her campaign for a third term as a University of Michigan Regent along with the next season of her podcast, “The Denise Ilitch Show.” Well-versed in politics, Denise is a frequent guest on the Sunday CBS News Morning roundtable, “Michigan Matters.” She recently appeared alongside Rochester Hills Mayor Bryan Barnett and CEO of Michigan Business Network, Chris Holman, touching on a wide range of topics from the UAW strike, the horrific terrorist attack in Israel, and the Detroit Lions. You won't want to miss Florine's interview with the very accomplished and inspirational, Denise Ilitch. What You'll Hear on This Episode: What was it like for Denise growing up in a family of seven children, that also happened to be one of the most powerful families in the U.S.? Why did Denise's father and mother decide on pizza? What was Little Caesars like from the beginning, before it became one of the fastest-growing pizza chains in the country? What lessons did Denise learn from both her very successful father and mother? Denise's parents were both different personalities, but they worked together perfectly. Much to Florine's delight, Denise's mother, Marian, was the first guest on her “Remarkable Women” radio show. The Ilitch family's vital role in rebuilding the city of Detroit and renovating The Fox Theater. Denise discusses Ilitch Charities and Little Caesars Love Kitchen. What it was like for her father Mike to purchase the Detroit Tigers as a huge baseball lover. Fun fact — he was even drafted by the Tigers before buying them in 1992! Denise's tragic loss of a brother due to addiction, and the lesson it taught her about how important it is to reach out for help. Denise talks about her role as a Regent at the University of Michigan. What are the biggest issues facing women and children today? What would we be surprised to learn about Denise? Today's Takeaway: Being named one of Crain's 100 Most Influential Women is a tremendous honor. Just as her mother was previously recognized for the very same award, Denise exemplifies what it means to be one of the city's most influential women. She's an outstanding businesswoman, community leader, and someone who advocates tirelessly on behalf of others. Denise inherited a family legacy that's been credited with rebuilding a major American city. She was taught the importance of giving back to the community and guards her family legacy with grace and dignity. She continues to inspire and provide leadership in business, philanthropy, and education. Denise uses her podcast as a platform to motivate and inform others. Her guests are people she admires for their confidence, perseverance, and how they dealt with adversity. Every single day gives us gifts. My gift today is to talk to Denise and honor her for all the wonderful and amazing things that she has done in her life. She is truly an outstanding woman and role model! I'm Florine Mark and that's “Today's Takeaway.” Quotes: “Many people told them pizza was a trend, but of course, he proved it wasn't.” — Denise [7:28] “We all ended up at some point or another working in the family business because that's what it was when we started from day one.” — Denise [8:18] “There are so many lessons I've learned from [my father]. But, I would say probably the biggest lesson is to be kind to others, to be humble, and to give back to the community.” — Denise [9:02] “What I admire about my mom and what I've seen her do in the business is that she perseveres. Failure is not an option.” — Denise [10:44] “He bought the Tigers and for him, it was a dream come true. It was really like watching a passionate fan run the team.” — Denise [17:26] “Reach out for help, as much as you can.” — Denise [18:08] “I encourage people, not to allow that stigma to stand in the way of getting help for your loved one.” — Denise [19:32] “It's a family disease, not just the disease of one person.” — Denise [19:42] “It's a privilege for me to be a regent at the University of Michigan. It's my alma mater. I love the University and I love the work that we do. It's very exciting and fun to be on the board because you can help students and you can help people.” — Denise [20:51] Brought to You By: Florine Mark Mentioned in This Episode: Denise Ilitch — The University of Michigan Little Caesars Ilitch Companies Denise Ilitch Show Detroit Tigers
Here's my two-part conversation with Robert from Metallica. This is condensed into one part for your listening pleasure! Part one..... We talked about the latest album, 72 Seasons. He said it was great to get back into a room and play with the guys after the pandemic. "You forget about those things and take them for granted, it was pretty special." He also spoke about his time in Detroit this week. "It's a great city with a lot of history, a lot of history of music." While he was walking around the city a couple of days ago, he walked by the Fox Theater. He talked about playing at that venue with Ozzy and his band Infectious Grooves. I was lucky enough to visit the Motown Museum earlier in the day with Charlie Benante from Pantera/Anthrax, and he told me a story of someone throwing a bottle on stage at the band at a show in Europe. Robert was hit in the head as he waiting behind an amp. He recalled the story about what happened, and how it bonded his friendship with Anthrax to this day. Part two included this... We started off the conversation this time talking about the impact that Motown had on him. "That was 100% in my wheelhouse." He told me about growing up listening to that music, and then being turned onto rock and metal. "There isn't a bass player in rock, in metal, and sort of in modern music, that's serious about their instrument that doesn't respect those bass lines coming out of Detroit". That led us to more bass talk and guys who inspired him. Robert talked about Detroit's "swagger" and all the history and music from here. "There's a soulfulness to it." He also talked about his love for Houdini and everything he did in the Motor City. I had to ask him about the upcoming project he has coming out with the legendary RUSH bass player, Geddy Lee. He spoke to really getting a chance to hang with Geddy. "He wanted to know what it's like in the world of Robert Trujillo". Robert was fired up about the whole experience "It was really, really cool." He told a story about Geddy watching his son play at a local bar. He said people were blown away that the Canadian legend was there. I asked him about re-recording the Ozzy Osbourne album Diary of a Madman. "That's an interesting story," he said, and he was off and running about that project. He said he's always there for Ozzy and Sharon, commenting "Ozzy is my hero". 2003 was a monumental year for Robert. He called it the year that changed his life. "So many things happened." He spoke about joining the band and the work ethic that playing in Metallica brings. "That's the thing about this band, it's always 100%". He said when he joined the band, it was about fitting in and not bothering the other guys, but just trying to learn as he went. Enjoy!
Joe Bonamassa was nice enough to join me last week to talk about his latest albums/projects, plus, his upcoming show at the historic Fox Theater on November 18th. He told me how much he loves that place. I actually made a separate story just for his comments on the Fox. Joe told me about his latest live album, Tales Of Time, which he recorded at the legendary Red Rocks concert venue in Colorado. He said that the weather was an issue with the two shows he played there to capture his live show. He said the weather was much better the second night, and that's where most of the tracks come from. Speaking of live albums, he already has another recorded and ready to drop next year. This one though is completely different. That one was recorded at the Hollywood Bowl with an orchestra. He told me about the challenges of making that album, and how proud he is of it since he's lived out in southern California for a couple of decades. "It makes them completely different" was his response when I asked him if the orchestra breathed new life into these songs. Blues Deluxe Vol. 2 is out, twenty years after the first Vol. 1. He spoke to the making of that album as well. Does he still have the fire he had as a younger guitar player? "Yeah...the minute the fire goes away is when you got to hang it up." He said he's not there yet. What about any legendary guitar players he hasn't played with yet? He's played with so many, there's not many he hasn't played with. He told me, which I've heard before, the bigger the star, the nicer the person. I wrapped it up by asking about the late Jeff Beck. "To me, he was the greatest rock guitar player of all time. For six decades he was reinventing himself." He spoke to seeing Jeff before the shows, playing his guitar in his dressing room. He said it was the most incredible thing. "He lives in rarified air." -Meltdown-
This week hosts Kiki Said So and Medinah Monroe are joined by high-end matchmaker Jennifer, of One on One Matchmaking in Atlanta, GA.
