Episode #36, Mike Beck

Mike Beck is one of the greatest guys I know.He has led a humble, hard-working life. He carries many a kind notion in his soul, and has invoked more laughter in others than one could possibly calculate.He's a son that made his parents proud, a funny brother, a loving husband, a caring father, and a fantastic dude to have as an uncle.Although he was admittedly nervous, Mike made the trek from Lee's Summit to sit with me and kick around a few details about his list of badass records, and we did so for Episode #36. Mike picked Led Zeppelin II (1969), Crosby, Stills, Nash, & Young's Deja Vu (1970), Moondance (1970) by Van Morrison, 1973's Yessongs, and Rumors (1977) by Fleetwood Mac.In addition, we discussed retirement and bucket lists and parenthood and family and holiday traditions and music festivals, as well as a couple of other things I'm probably forgetting.So, please check out our chat, and please take Mike's community-curated Spotify playlist out for a spin. I know it was a project he enjoyed, and he'd really enjoy you enjoying it, too.Anyhoo...that's all for now. Thank you for stopping by.copyright disclaimer: I do not own the rights to the intro/outro audio.
