Special Show – Ryan Interviews Dr. Folkman

Jon got a gig working on a movie this week so there will not be a normal show.  I recently conducted an interview with a client who quickly became a friend during the process of making his album.  We sat down and talked for about 40 minutes about the creative process, the studio process, and how the overall project came together.  I also included one of the songs that we discuss at the end of the show.  Here is that interview.
