Podcast #47- Conversation with Chad Wells
This week’s podcast I get a chance to talk to Chad Wells- a “friend’ for about a year we finally got a chance to talk about our mutual love for The Dead- the community & music!
Chad and I met via Facebook when I weighed in on a comment & suggested he check out the podcast- he responded that he was already listening! Thinking back a year- this may have been the first time I solicited a listener and they were already familiar- so a bit of a mile stone that was very meaningful.
Chad is the man behind This Day In Grateful Dead History- and incredibly informative & fun blog- pictures that I enjoy following on all social media- especially Facebook where he gets to share the whole scoop on his page-
Dead to the Core- Chad shares with us his deep dive down his rabbit hole on the day Jerry Garcia passed 22 years ago- the rest as they say is history. Picking out some “favorite” songs from “favorite shows” was not an easy task for Chad- because picking a “favorite” is a near impossible task for someone with so much love and dedication for the music…….that said he was able to pull out some fantastic gems- and share with us his feelings behind these specific choices & why they are special to him.
As always- thank you for stopping by & enjoy!
