Nikki Glaspie Oct 01, 2021

Show notes

This week on Comes A Time Oteil and Mike talk with one of the top young drummers in music, Nikki Glaspie. In this conversation Nikki, Mike, and Oteil discuss why Nikki knew that it was the right decision to leave school at Berklee to gig on her own, her move to New York City and the excitement of auditioning for Beyoncé, the new Nth Power album (which features Kofi Burbridge on 10 of it’s 11 tracks) and much more. You’ll also hear the three dive deep on religion and spirituality as Nikki discusses ways that she incorporates elements of her religious upbringing into her present life, the culture shock that Nikki experienced when she moved from Maryland to North Carolina to Massachusetts, and an incredible story about the music of The Nth Power literally saving a man’s life.

Nikki Glaspie is one of the premier drummers in music today. Aside from sharing the stage with some of our favorite artists including Kofi Burbridge, Maceo Parker, Eric Krasno, Pharoahe Monch, and Dumpstaphunk, Nikki is best known for co-founding The Nth Power, who have amazed fans of all genres from gospel to alternative with their dynamic soundscapes and eclectic blend of styles. Nikki grew up playing the drums in church and that foundation has led her to become a powerhouse percussionist, and a master manipulator of rhythm. The Nth Power just released their 5th studio album, Reverence, which puts Nikki’s precision-tight pocket and danceable grooves on full display.

You can listen to Reverence here.

In this expansive conversation you’ll hear about an interview that James conducted with former Arizona governor Fife Symington about the Phoenix Lights sighting in 1997, a smoking gun linking J. Edgar Hoover to the Roswell UFO crash, and an experience of connection that occurred on the moon that is unlike anything we’ve heard on Comes A Time.

James Fox is a film director and UFO researcher and specialist. As they discuss in the episode, James has directed a number of films including the documentaries The Phenomenonand UFOs: 50 Years of Denial?

In The Phenomenon, which includes testimony from high-ranking government officials and NASA Astronauts, Senator Harry Reid says that the evidence "makes the incredible credible." Throughout this episode James dives into the wealth of knowledge that he has about extraterrestrial life form sightings, and will leave you amazed at what’s been uncovered about UFOs.

Fred Guttenberg Aug 13, 2021

Show notes

On this episode of Comes a Time, gun safety activist Fred Guttenberg joins Oteil and Mike for a crucially important conversation about gun violence, and hope for a brighter future. You’ll hear the three discuss the powerful moment at a vigil for the Parkland shooting when Greg became aware of his mission to end gun violence, survivors guilt and the emotional trauma of living through an event like Parkland, and the surprising history of gun laws in America. They also discuss President Biden’s plan to fund community intervention programs that aim to deal with the root causes of gun violence before violent events happen, the ways that the community around Parkland stepped up to provide mental health resources in the wake of the shooting, and much more.

Fred Guttenberg began his mission to end gun violence in America after the murder of his 14-year-old daughter Jaime in the Parkland school shooting on Feb 14, 2018. The day after the shooting Fred spoke at a vigil in Parkland at the request of the Mayor, and his words shook the nation to its core. Since then he has embarked on a relentless journey to inspire hope, change, and perseverance for those who’ve been affected by gun violence, and for the country at large. Fred and his wife Jennifer now spend time challenging our elected officials to create impactful change. They began a 501(c)(3) organization dedicated to Jaime’s life called “Orange Ribbons for Jaime,” and Fred created a 501(c)(4) called “Orange Ribbons For Gun Safety.” He’s also written a book called Find the Helpers, which is about how compassion from others has helped Fred navigate the adversity of losing his daughter and his brother within a four-month period- it’s a story of recovery, purpose, and hope. Fred is doing outstanding work for every individual in our country, and in this episode he speaks about how crucial this time period is for creating a safer future for America.

Annabelle Garcia Aug 06, 2021

Show notes

This week on Comes a Time, Mike and Oteil welcome a very special guest, Annabelle Garcia. A direct member of the Grateful Dead lineage, Annabelle has too many riveting stories to tell for one podcast, but she makes sure to pack as many as she can into this episode! You’ll hear the three talk about Annabelle’s unabashed love for top-40 music when she was a kid, as well as a wild story about her first non-Grateful Dead concert- a Talking Heads show that led to a strange interaction with David Byrne at Ken Kesey’s house. You’ll also hear Annabelle talk about the ways that she explores the weirdness of life through her art, an astonishing story about why bass helps her sleep, and why she needed a break from getting hugged at shows. If you’re a Grateful Dead fan interested in the behind the scenes happenings of the band, or if you’d like to hear an insightful conversation between three amazing artists, then this is the podcast for you!

Annabelle Garcia was born in Marin County, California in 1970 to Carolyn (Mountain Girl) Adams, and Jerry Garcia. She is their first child together and the middle sibling of five sisters from various parents. Annabelle is a natural world admirer, a reclusive Pacific Northwestern artist, a member of the Garcia Family LLC, and a direct result of the experimental 60’s. Under her childhood nickname, A.Belle, she creates whimsical ink cartoons, pop surrealist paintings, concrete sculpture, impressionist watercolor, and poetry in search of the imaginary worlds and our intimate relationships with them. Being diagnosed with discoid lupus in 2015 led her to step back from a life of odd adventures to focus more on philanthropic work, while continuously supporting the Garcia Family LLC in sharing and honoring her parents’ remarkable legacies.
