A Radical Adventure in the Second Half of Life: Notes from the Field

Chapters and photos from my book "Making the Second Half Man: How I Became the Ogre-King."

From the padded cell of an unhinged old crank, heterodox short stories, podcasts, essays, and other stuff that will make the normal go insane.

Tour the United States of America, learning about the music and musicians from the country's many regions. With the spirit of Woody Guthrie as our guide, we'll discover the roots of America through folk, gospel, bluegrass, R&B, and blues music. We'll migrate to rock and roll, the music that grew alongside, and even sparked, a tidal shift in American culture, politics, and power. It’s all Americana, and it’s all good.
