The Summer I Got Into The Doors

Take a trip back to the hazy, sun-drenched Midwestern heat of July 2014. Host Luke Ferris takes the solo mic for a deeply personal essay episode reflecting on a formative, vagabond summer spent house-crashing, working menial internships, and driving endless miles across Michigan. It was a season of isolation, cheap beer, and beautiful mundanity—all set to a heavy, mystic, and psychedelic soundtrack. In this essay episode, Luke explores how the raw lore of Jim Morrison and The Doors found him at exactly the right time, romanticizing his solitude and putting him into a meditative state that culminated in a single, life-changing morning beach decision.---Catch new episodes of Least Important Things every Tuesday wherever you get your podcasts or on YouTube.Support Least Important Things on PatreonYou can be part of the show by leaving a voicemail here.You can email the show at [email protected] or reach out via social media at the links below.Read our articles and learn more about the show at www.leastimportantthings.com---Sources for this episode:Royalty-free music and sound effects via Artlist.comTHE DOORS | Official Trailer | STUDIOCANALHotelroom Freakout Scene - Apocalypse NowSend us Fan MailFollow Least Important Things: Letterboxd InstagramYouTubeTikTokFacebookAll content falls under fair use: any copying of copyrighted material is done for a limited, educational and “transformative” purpose, such as to comment upon, criticize, or parody a copyrighted work.
