Do the Thing!

Phishing with Eric: The Gen X Experience, Pt. 3

Part 3 begins with Francisca (me 😂) issuing an apology after doing a little research on 45 sales.

From there, we dive into Eric’s podcast, Thoughts Adrift.

A podcast about…

You guessed it.

Phish. 🎶

Eric and I talk about the wonderfully interesting world of podcasting and the freedom that comes with not chasing perfection. Sometimes it’s about simply doing the things that make life a little more interesting and a lot more fun.

Then we deep dive into ’80s sitcoms and movies.

Did we really both say we preferred National Lampoon’s European Vacation over the original?

Yeah. We did. 😂

How many one-liners did you count in Commando?

Cheers!

Yes, Diane was annoying. But annoying enough to make the Rebecca episodes better?

That wasn’t my feeling. 😁

By the end, you may find yourself wanting to explore Phish, pick up an album you’ve never heard and listen to it from beginning to end, or go back and rewatch an epic ’80s sitcom.

I hope this series inspires you to do all of the above.

Do you remember
The 21st night of September?
Love was changin’ the minds of pretenders
While chasin’ the clouds away 🪩

Happy Earth Wind and Fire Day! 🌎🌬️🔥

I do believe I will be recycling this one for the rest of my days. 😁

How can I not? Grover is dancing in a disco to Earth Wind and Fire.

It really doesn’t get much more epic than that. 🤓✨🪩🎶

Also, don’t forget about
The Great Synchronization
Today at 2:00 pm Central time in America

Take a moment to pause for 5 minutes.

While we all bring our energy together for one moment and for one reason.
LOVE!

Energy is real. Let’s use it for good.

Part 2

In Part 2 of my conversation with Eric, we delve deeper into Phish. The shows, the community, the music, the covers… including Phish covering the Beastie Boys. We have some thoughts on that one. 😂

We talk about the power of music and how it can feed our souls through different songs, in different moments, and in very different ways.

Somehow, it all leads back to love and light.

Except for that time I witnessed something. 😳

Eric explains what can sometimes be the difference between the online community and the 3D community.

We also talk about more of the great music of our generation.

Pearl Jam’s Ten was, as always, mentioned again.

Talking Heads received the love they deserve.

We talk about the magic of creating playlists and mixtapes, and then we challenged ourselves to pick our favorite Led Zeppelin song.

We, of course, fell down a rabbit hole. 😂

So now we’re asking you:

What’s your favorite Led Zeppelin song? 🎶

There’s a quote often attributed to Plato:

“Music gives a soul to the universe, wings to the mind, flight to the imagination and life to everything.”

One of the most beautiful things about music, just like with all forms of art, is that it is subjective.

So whether Roundabout by Yes is what you consider to be your perfect piece of music, or American Girl by Tom Petty, or every 311 song in existence, like Rob does… 🥰

The one thing we can all agree on is that Music is Life! 🎶

Head on over to your favorite podcast listening platform as I continue my conversation with Eric in Part 2 of Phishing with Eric: The Gen X Experience.

We talk about music, the Phish experience, and what it was like growing up, surviving, and eventually thriving through the Gen X experience.
