Currently reading Parting the Waters America in the King Years 1954-1963 by Taylor Branch with my friend Gabe. I usually drop music I write and record into the show, instrumental style. The PRC Show was created to entertain, make me a better person, and do something creative and constructive. Everyone now has a podcast, mine is mine, there are better. I'm a dad with two kids and work full time as a nurse.
