    Leon Majcen

    Leon Majcen
    If the Americana Music association made a Pixar movie, the lead character could very well be based on our guest. Leon Majcen has the personality of a leading man that we're all rooting for. Tall, smirking, and handsome, Leon is an eye-twinkling, excited ball of musical energy. He is the type of songwriter that isn't trying to impress you or convince you he's good at what he does. He lets his songs do the that for him, and leaves his actual talking for connecting with you as a person. He has a devil may care way about him, which is both enviable and disarming. In groups, Leon is a life of the party kind of guy, but one-on-one, he's more reserved. You can still sense his anticipation for his next show or fishing trip vibrating under the surface, but he's more more at peace. Here is the guy that calls you out of the blue just to let you know he was thinking about you. Just checking in. It's that thoughtful inner lining that comes out in his songwriting. Pair that with his picking chops, and you've got a recipe for star to continue rising on the Americana and Country charts. His first album, Back Til I'm Gone, is a study of homesickness and growing up that got the attention of the industry and landed him in festival line-ups... and The releases he has coming next, including the single you're hearing right now, are a fantastic evolution of his artistry. We can't wait to hear them, and we think you'll feel the same way, after you get to know our dear friend, Leon Majcen.

    #062: This Book will Save You Money on Flights

    #062: This Book will Save You Money on Flights

    Take More Vacations by Scott Keyes is the best book I’ve read in a while. In this episode, I share with you what I’m taking from this book for my next trip. There are many helpful tips in the book. However, the life-changing point is to reverse your travel planning. Plan your trip with the price in mind first, then destination and dates. Most people do it the other way around – Destination and date first, then try to find a cheap flight. In other words, the flexible traveler can always find cheap flights!

     I love this book. Get it here if you want: https://amzn.to/3ok50SF

    #031: Saint Petersburg, Russia - Incredible Architecture Everywhere, But No Supermodels

    #031: Saint Petersburg, Russia - Incredible Architecture Everywhere, But No Supermodels

    You’re definitely in Russia, but you’ll feel more like you’re in California or maybe Sweden in this Russian city. In this episode, I discuss the artistic and cultural hub of Russia known as Saint Petersburg. The moniker, “The Venice of the North” is an appropriate title for this Russian city. With incredible sights such as the Hermitage Museum, St. Isacc’s Cathedral, and the Church of the Saviour on Spilled Blood, you'll have plenty to do in Saint Petersburg. And, I discuss the girls, the nightlife, and people. By the way, my number #1 tip about Saint Petersburg comes early in this episode.
