Mark on the Gig Gab Podcast

November 20, 2015 by Mark Linsenmayer 3 Comments

I got a chance to sit down and chat with my old bandmate (he played drums in The Fake) Dave Hamilton (who hosts three different podcasts!) to talk about my ill-fated musical "career" and my relationship to the many great musicians I've played with, most of whom were able to play out more and make more money with their other projects, leaving me in a few cases the last man standing in a band whose album I then was left to finish on my own.

Listen to the episode.

In related news, a) I'm getting serious about starting a new podcast interviewing songwriters in 2016 and have a couple of guests on the hook already (just friends of mine; no one famous yet), b) I just got the mastered recordings back of my new album "Songs from the Partially Examined Life," which should be available for sale here and on CDBaby.com as of 12/1 (and free for PEL Citizens!) and on iTunes/Spotify/Amazon/etc. within a week or two afterward. Woo hoo!

For posting to CDBaby, I need to put down a few artists that I sound like. I'm having trouble thinking of any; if you wouldn't mind listening to a bit of the first several tracks here and giving me some recommendations, I'd appreciate it.

    Hi Mark,

    Not sure if you’re familiar with George Hrab, but his stuff and your stuff have a strong family resemblance (to get all Wittgenstein) to my mind…

    Here’s his CD Baby URL:

    Cheers,

      …and George also has a long running podcast (The Geologic Podcast) and might be an interesting guest/resource for your new music themed podcast.

About The Partially Examined Life

The Partially Examined Life is a philosophy podcast by some guys who were at one point set on doing philosophy for a living but then thought better of it. Each episode, we pick a text and chat about it with some balance between insight and flippancy. You don’t have to know any philosophy, or even to have read the text we’re talking about to (mostly) follow and (hopefully) enjoy the discussion

Become a PEL Citizen!

As a PEL Citizen, you’ll have access to a private social community of philosophers, thinkers, and other partial examiners where you can join or initiate discussion groups dedicated to particular readings, participate in lively forums, arrange online meet-ups for impromptu seminars, and more. PEL Citizens also have free access to podcast transcripts, guided readings, episode guides, PEL music, and other citizen-exclusive material. Click here to join.
