Never Was Podcast

Greetings! This week we return to traditional Never Was format: a two-part conversation with Randy Torres - doer of all sorts of amazing things, but most famously the original guitarist of Project 86. Randy and I talk life before, during & after Project and of course, all the good bits in between. Yep, we go NYVES to Water Socks. Yes, you read that right. As always: Turn it UP. Relax. Enjoy!

Greetings! The first ever Podcastrophe gets a much needed follow up - and how. We wade through the aftermath of what shall forever be known as" The Star Wars Incident" - and lo & behold, something beautiful rises from the ashes. Imagine that. If you haven't listened to episode 29 yet, definitely do that before proceeding - we've made it available again, unedited and as raw as it ever was. Just know... this is here. Waiting. Ready to still the rage... or at least continue the conversation...

Greetings! Notice anything weird around here? Does anything seem slightly different? Yes? Well, that's because something IS DIFFERENT! Welcome the very first Never Was Podcastrophe! I give the necessary details on the show, but suffice to say, this is the start of a new and improved Never Was for season 2 - we'll still have guests as often as possible, but for those times in-between... YOU are the special guest. And everything shall be right in the world...

Greetings! Three old friends walk into a bar... well, two of them were smart enough to duck, the other one is writing this terrible joke. (Whatever- it wasn't even a bar anyway, it was some cheeky community office space thing) Yes, it's true, like a three-fold cord of grumpiness, Mike Lewis of Giving is Believing, Billy Power of Urban Achiever and yours truly all got together to solve all the world's problems, right before Christmas, in the Greatest City in the World...

Greetings! Hey look.....

Greetings! Where you been? Yes, I know. I know. Well, we return with one of our longest shows ever, so that should count for something! This week Matt Johnson is back, along with our good friend Mike Lewis and a few of you Never Wases, talking about... hidden messages, mysterious ways, flowers in the concrete; from the way followers of Jesus are portrayed in popular culture to why it doesn't really matter. Also: just where in the world I've been for the last two months...

Greetings! Welcome back for the 2nd part of our chat with René Vasquez, aka: Peace 586! This week we go a little deeper into life after life takes over for possibly one of my favorite conversations ever. A true testament to what can happen when we've lost our way, Peace strives to tell the tale with transparency - and the result is not for the faint of heart. Take a deep breath and... Enjoy!

Greetings! This week Never Was returns with a jump into the way, way back machine: a two part episode offering a different perspective on everything from the early 90's and the Crucified to Gene Eugene and the Cornerstone Festival, former front man for hip hop group Freedom of Soul turned beat-maker/producer, René "Peace586" Vasquez, joins the show! Enjoy!

Greetings! Well, this week we have former Dead Poetic lead singer and current t-shirt design maven Brandon Rike! We talk about the things that mean the most to any band that ever was: love, peace, the people who mean the most and ... the Evolution of Band. Tune in for what might be the most perfect hard take on where it all leads (here's a hint: Elvis knew. Very, very briefly.) Enjoy!

Greetings! My conversation with Ryan Clark continues! Be sure to check out the links listed on the show page - in particular the one to the artwork of Ryan's grandfather, Al Paulsen from the Invisible Creature website. Yeah, it runs in the family. So good. So good. Enjoy!
