Don't Ever Quit with Al Church

Al Church (incredible musician) talks about sharing not just a home city but a birthday with Prince, we parse out our relationships to astrology, and I ask him the most annoying question a musician can get: "What kind of music do you play?"

We also talk about the ways in which life narratives aren't clean and how a single comment made to him as a kid serves as a touchstone for the kind of life he wants to live, twenty years later.

If you want more Al Church, check out his full episode at patreon.com/davemaher. It includes his "Funeral Planning," "Kill 1 Thing," and "Relive 1 Memory" segments, plus an extended version of the intro.

Al made one of my favorite albums of 2018, Night Games, and I truly cannot recommend too highly that you purchase it on Bandcamp and immediately add more joy to your life.
