Garrett covers "Leave Something Behind" by Sean Rowe by request. Before that, he likes the idea of "leave it better", wonders if the U.S., North Korea, and the NFL can all just get along, and is it OK to chip golfballs in the neighborhood grassy area?

Garrett is groggy and can't say "conscientious", goes backstage at OneRepublic (thanks Dave!), hits the beach in LA (thanks Dan!), didn't turn right on red (sorry angry lady!), didn't "help" a bunny (sorry bunny!), and shares his latest home studio song "On Wings (Hit the Road)" www.GarrettAndersonMusic.com

Garrett checks in before and after his gigs (with a sore throat) and is intrigued by a "meditative music" performance after his set at The Listening Room Phoenix...

(Before and After 5/17/17 gig) Garrett tests his intestinal fortitude (literally) to get to the gig on time, reacts to the bar owner's challenge to play more upbeat next time, and hears back from Old Crow Medicine Show...

Can you hear this podcast while vacuuming? My kids' answers to questions they don't know the answers to are better than Trump's. Garrett recommends checking out Tristan Harris and the Time Well Spent movement (in addition to Me.Now), loves the quote "joy shared is doubled, sorrow shared is halved", and more...

(From LA5) Garrett performs an acoustic "Tea with Einstein", breaks it down line by line, and the family helps him sign-off.

Garrett plugs Sam Harris , semi-roasts Malcolm Gladwell, recaps his farmers' market gig including the popcorn vendor who is a published musician and the little girl that stole his harmonica, or did she?

Garrett caught a huge mistake on his taxes, gigged for sexy grandmas, plays an acoustic "My Someone", has hot leads from NARIP, tackles doubts, hates scams and spam bots, and more.
