Liz and Jack on The State of the Union, State of Music and Altered States

Embark

Tired of the news cycle? Sick of the constant drip, drip, drip of downbeat information?
So are we, so Jack and I decided less news media consumption, more turning up the volume and indulging our passion for listening to music.
We couldn't help but watch the State of the Union Address, though. We wander into political territory, before going to the happy place of sharing favorite bands, and wondering if Rock 'n Roll is still a thing. If it's not, is it time to re-think the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame? Broaden the tent to encompass all genres? I like that idea. It feels democratic, and since I embrace all kinds of music, it seems right.
We also talk about altered states, aka cosmetic surgery. Many celebrities are doing an about face on their old - er, former - faces, with mixed results. What do you think?
Also, in light of the devastating earthquake in Turkey and Syria, there is incredible need and ways for your to help. Check your local consulates to donate in-kind items like blankets, tents, jackets, diapers, hats, gloves and other clothing.
You can also donate to unicefusa.org or https://donate.doctorswithoutborders.org.
Thank you.
