We're extremely excited to have David Gans as our guest on No Simple Road this week! David is a musician, songwriter, guitarist, and music-journalist. He is the co-author of the book 'Playin In The Band: An Oral and Visual Portrait of the Grateful Dead', 'This Is All A Dream We Dream: An Oral History of the Grateful Dead' and hosts the weekly syndicated show The Grateful Dead Hour. He also co-hosts a show on Sirius-XM's 'The Grateful Dead Channel' called 'Tales From The Golden Road'. I would dare to day that David is royalty and an elder statesman in our little Grateful Dead community.

We talk with David about how we shouldn't allow the world outside to deny us our joy, how today's strangeness and issues are so different than years gone by, the way that a musician's job has changed over the years, an elders role in the community, why the Grateful Dead's music stood out among so many greats, and so much more!
