From Bristol to the Blues: A Musical Journey with Mark Goddard

Mark Goddard is a writer and musician whose life was shaped by a 2002 road trip across America with his brother, Jeremy, chasing the roots of the music they loved and turning the journey into his book Losing Eldorado.In this episode of Life by Misadventure, Mark reflects on the cities, music, mishaps, culture shock, poverty, freedom, and brotherly chaos that defined the trip, from New York and New Orleans to Austin, Chicago, and the long road between them.Mark leaves you with the sense that travel can crack open your assumptions, deepen your understanding of people and place, and turn even the messiest adventure into something worth remembering.Buy the book, photos and explore more at the Losing Eldorado website:https://www.losingeldorado.com/About the ShowLife by Misadventure is hosted by David Brown and features honest, engaging conversations with interesting people about life, loss, resilience, ideas, and the experiences that shape us.Connect with David on LinkedIn:https://www.linkedin.com/in/4dmbrown/Watch on YouTube:https://www.youtube.com/@lifebymisadventurepod/Listen on Apple Podcasts:https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/life-by-misadventure/id1782077287Listen on Spotify:https://open.spotify.com/show/6Z1MszCU19QglChFb11Pw2?si=98ab1a34db074b3d
