Hear what inspires them to get out of bed each morning and practice the craft that they love. My guests include people that I truly respect from many different backgrounds.

The return of Zak Smith! I first had Zak on the show six months ago for Episode 028. I couldn't wait to catch up with him, and this was the perfect time. His new album is being released May 1, 2012. We talked about the recording of the album and talked through a few of the songs. We also talked about his mobile app. I have it, and it is great!  The content is updated often, and it's a fun way to stay up to date with everything going on in his world. Zak and I also have a shared love of protest music, so we talked about the evolution and current state of the Occupy movement. Zak allowed me to include two songs from the new album. After you listen, please buy the album.  It is solid from start to finish. You can learn more about Zak at http://www.zaksmithband.com/zaksmith.cfm. If you see Zak, please tell him that you heard him here first!  Enjoy!
