<p>T&M 29: Father Matt Foley - Priest & Friend of Chris Farley</p>
<p>Growing up in the 90s there was no bigger show for me than Saturday Night Live, and no bigger cast member than Chris Farley. When I was a student at Marquette University, I used to imagine fellow alum, Farley, running late for class through the academic yard … as seen in the movie Tommy Boy. Anytime I share my story of touring and living in a van for two years it is almost guaranteed someone wittingly responds, “Was it down by a river?” – a quote from Chris Farley’s iconic motivational speaker character, Matt Foley. I have always felt a strong connection to Chris especially after I heard that he was a practicing Catholic, like myself. I have always related to the very honest and human sweet/troubled reality that Chris lived. Not for any glorified reasons but rather for its honest, hopeful, and redemptive qualities. Chris was not perfect and neither am I. I have always felt like I could relate to him, though never knowing him, somewhat on that level. So when I found out that his SNL character Matt Foley was named after his college rugby buddy turned Catholic priest, Army Chaplin, and Afghanistan veteran, Father Matt Foley – and Fr. Matt lived an hour and a half away from me – I thought, I absolutely have to meet this man and talk about who he is, his friend Chris, their relationship, and their faith.

Instead, they got jobs at the university’s studio, learned the trade and made a record. This decision lead to a bidding war between Kanye West & Pharrell Williams, touring the world, a 2nd record, a cameo in the movie La La Land and his current passion, investing in the sciences. Above all of these accomplishments, what impressed Mike the most was how incredibly kind and enjoyable D.A is to be with.

As another artist of strong faith, Mike and Matis share common ground and discussed the possibility of music’s transcendent power and its potential to become prayer.

<p>***EPISODE REMOVED*** Sorry<br><br>T&M 14: Bo Ramsey </p>
<p>We all have that person in our lives that exemplify the work we do. For Mike, that person is Bo Ramsey. Bo is sincere, honest, and musically pure. He is tone, he is style, he is taste, he is skill; he’s a man of few notes and fewer words – Bo is music and mystery. The moment Mike shared a stage with Bo back in 2008 he became a fan. In 2012 the two worked on Mike and his band’s 4th studio release, Red-winged Blackbird Man. In the time spent together Mike has come to understand three things about his friend: 1. Bo is the real deal 2. Bo wants to take you to church 3. When he talks … you listen. Mike had the privilege of listening and encourages you to do the same!

<p>Episode 12: A.J Ellis </p>
<p>As a college baseball player, A.J Ellis never thought he would make it to the major leagues. When invited to play with the Los Angeles Dodgers, Ellis was both grateful and surprised. He knew he would have to work hard to make the most out of his opportunity while remaining completely open to what baseball had in store for him. Now, after eight seasons with the Dodgers, Ellis sees himself not as a MLB star but rather a servant to both his teammates and fans alike. Join Mike as he goes deep into the career and life of A.J Ellis in this episode of Time & The Mystery. <br>*Since the recording of this episode A.J has been traded to Philadelphia </p>

<p>Episode 11: Victor DeLorenzo </p>
<p>When Victor DeLorenzo began his artistic journey in Milwaukee, WI, it was to literally fill the shoes of budding actor Willem Dafoe. But when forming his band, The Violent Femmes, innovation, practicality, and mobility inspired Victor to forge new ground and develop the bare bones “bastardized” style of drumming that put he and the Femmes on the map. The result was iconic music that not only touched a nerve but grabbed it, and forced its devotion to a whole new style of music … Folk – Punk. Join Mike as he and his friend talk about beginnings, his life with the Femmes and what makes him happy. I give you Time & The Mystery: Conversations with Victor DeLorenzo. </p>

<p><br>T&M 10: Sean Moeller </p>
<p>In the early 2000s the music industry was changing rapidly. While most desperately clung to an old school model that was evaporating in their hands, Sean Moeller embraced the power of the web and created Daytrotter: a website platform showcasing recording sessions from his humble analog studio in Rock Island, IL. Being positioned between major markets, Sean began inviting touring bands to his studio to record during the day while passing through. A few agreed. Their sessions were stellar and word grew fast about this little island of rock in the sea of the touring highway. Soon, Daytrotter was hosting Mumford and Sons, Wilco, Bon Iver, The Avett Brothers, Edward Sharpe & The Magnetic Zeros, even Glen Campbell stopped by for a session. Daytrotter quickly became a notable tastemaker in the indie rock scene, an intentional stop for all touring artists and a shining example of how embracing change with a little innovation can make even the smallest of places a global player. I give you Time & The Mystery: Conversations with Sean Moeller. </p>

<p>T&M 09: Sean Daley - Slug </p>
<p>What do you do when you want to be a hip-hop star and you live in Minneapolis? You build your own sandbox and make the players come to you. This is what Sean Daley, better known as Slug of the hip-hop group Atmosphere, did … and what a sandbox he has built! Twenty-one years later his label is stronger than ever, he is a major headlining act, and on the dawn of his 10th studio release. Few can say they are at the top of their game 20 years in … but Sean wasn’t thrown to the peak of the success summit; he built that hill on his own and walked every step with the same determination as the step before it. Now, as a proud father, husband, and a wise sage, he is here to give you something more than listening music for the revolution, he comes to give you a “realistic hope” — one that is not ignorant of the dirt and mess of everyday life, but rather fully alive in it and elevated through it. He wants to point you to what he calls, “the purple lining,” where you can fully be and thrive … The purple lining … a place where reality and dreams collide and where fullest potential is realized. A place that casts a cooling shadow over the sandbox that he has built, summoning his eyes above himself and drawing his hill higher and higher to the heavens. Join me as we bask in that mystery that is Slug. </p>

<p>Episode 08: Alex Ebert </p>
<p>When Alex Ebert fronted the LA based group Ima Robot he viewed himself as a “destroyer,” hidden deep from the surface, self destructive and void of emotion. Through reflection and personal excavation he uncovered his root and the flower it fed. Now, with his band, Edward Sharpe & The Magnetic zeros, Alex wants to tear down walls and set you free. He still remains a destroyer, but this time of the chains that bind. Join Mike as he digs into the mystery of Alex Ebert. </p>

<p>Episode 07: Larry Campbell & Teresa Williams </p>
<p>Few people can say they have played with Bob Dylan. Fewer still have played with both Dylan and Levon Helm. Larry Campbell and wife Teresa Williams have not only collaborated with these musical legends, but have done so at the time when both underwent their respective critically acclaimed reemergence. For Levon, this included his first, second and third Grammy awards. This is by no fluke. The aptly named “first couple of americana music” bring more than just musicality to their work. They bring heart, soul, wisdom and intentionality. One part church, one part The Beatles, and one part the desire to commune with you. Listen in as Mike searches into the mystery with the ever gifted and authentic Larry Campbell and Teresa Williams. </p>

<p><br><br>Episode 06: Arian Moayed </p>
<p>After leaving high school, Arian and Mike set out on separate artistic journeys. Arian’s led him to New York where he co-founded the theater company Waterwell. In 2011, Arian was nominated for a Tony Award for best actor in the production "Bengal Tiger at The Baghdad Zoo" starring alongside Robin Williams. He is currently on Broadway in the hit play "The Humans", recently winning the Tony Award for best play. If that wasn’t enough … Arian landed his first major film role alongside Bill Murray, Bruce Willis and Kate Hudson in "Rock The Kasbah", released late 2015. Listen in as he and Mike about talk everything from their high school days to the artistic process to working with the greats. </p>

<p>Episode 05: Christopher West </p>
<p>Christopher West is a speaker, author and theologian on a topic called the "Theology of The Body". For Mike, he is more than just an educator, he is a dear friend. This conversation dives deep into the fascinating life and passion of one of today's most successful Catholic speakers and is fueled by the joy these two have for each other. </p>

<p>Episode 04: Kristian Bush </p>
<p>At the time of this interview, summer of 2015, Kristian Bush was the most popular guest I have had on my podcast. He had come out of the Atlanta music scene when it was on fire, launching acts like REM, Indigo Girls, Black Crows, Shawn Mullins, John Mayer and his band, Billy Pilgrim. Billy Pilgrim had some success touring the world, even appearing in one of the first episodes of VH1 storytellers. Next for him was the creation of pop/country mega group Sugarland, who in their lifespan, moved over 14 million records – and this was during the age of the digital takeover – that is a lot, my friend. When I met with him he was touring his new project, a debut solo record entitled, Southern Gravity. The only thing that surprised me more than his kindness and generosity was his immense optimism. </p>
<p>I would consider myself an optimist … well … maybe a scarred, moderate optimist with relapse tendencies and a short-term memory. Either way I’d say I am above average, otherwise I would not still be in this business. Kristian Bush is an optimist and one who has a lot to show for it. I am sure he has had his beat-ups and regrets. But he keeps moving. I know he is a relentless hard worker. But optimism is only realized through those who push through its antithesis. He certainly has, and it has paid off … big time! In his own words, “thoughts become things, be careful which ones you choose.” Think about that the next time it rains on your wedding day, Alanis! </p>

<p>Episode 03: Brian Anderson<br><br>One could think finding the mystery in sportscasting would be a challenge... Not for Mike and his pal Brian Anderson.

<p><br>Episode 02: Ben Sollee<br><br>I met Ben when we were both starting out as young traveling songwriters. At the time, Ben was playing cello as part of The Sparrow Quartet alongside Bela Fleck and finishing his debut record. I was living in a van... While touring through Tennessee and Kentucky in the summer of 2015, I made a stop to visit my old friend and catch up. Now husbands, fathers and veteran songwriters, Ben and I discuss the victories, pangs and ambitions of the creative lifestyle. </p>

<p>Episode 01: Greg Brown<br><br>Everything starts somewhere, here is where this journey begins. While traveling through Iowa City I had an opportunity to sit with Grammy nominated folk legend Greg Brown. I had met Greg one other time previously but never really had any significant in-depth conversation. We had a mutual friend, Bo Ramsey, who plays guitar and produces for Greg and produced our last album, Red-Winged Blackbird Man. On this trip I set out just to get some interviews, no shows of my own and ended up getting 4 fantastic conversations in one day... Greg was my third of the day and I was feeling pretty deep in the flow at this point. I was surprised to hear Greg was ready to go himself and we got pretty deep in it right away touching on faith, the songwriters journey and the potential of music to go beyond the ears. Greg is legend, a songwriter monster, a king in my book. He has been covered by Willie Nelson Ani Difranco, Gillian Welch, Shawn Colvin and Joan Baez just to name a few... I was honored to be in his home and have his attention and excited to share our time with you. Time & The Mystery: Conversations with Greg Brown </p>
