Dude. Ben Sharp of Cloudkicker. I seriously can't believe how blessed I am with the guests Stephen and I have been able to get on this show. Ben Sharp is a bit tricky to book for a show. He's a commercial airline pilot so he's either totally home or totally not. I caught him at his new Pittsburgh home. Such great conversation. Ben Sharp took his show on the road with Intronaut. Ok wait, I mean his band WAS Intronaut. That's crazy enough, right? Intronaut is incredible...and Ben borrowed them for a tour. What a cool story!!! He talks a bit about his first, only, and as of now last (?) tour. What Ben Sharp is doing with Cloudkicker is the ultimate example of DIY. We respect that here at ATSG. Thanks to John Petkau for introducing me to Cloudkicker.

After some of the music stuff is resolved...we get deep. What a rewarding conversation. Ben is rad. He's full of love for his fellow man, including you. Take care. Bye bye.
