Rob Theakston and I met many, many years ago in Detroit, though I honestly don't recall the when or how. But I'll bet almost anything that HE does, and it probably involved an extended conversation about music of a widely varied nature, fine whiskey, and The West Wing. He has always been a full-throated supporter of his friends, whether it's of their art, or them as individuals (he has definitely been a life coach for me on *many* occasions). Not to mention, he's a fine artist in his own right. Check out the Thinkbox collective to find out more. Some years ago, he moved to Lexington, KY where he's working for the University down there (he just ended his Sunday night radio show on WRFL), married his lovely wife Stephanie and, is in the process of fulfilling his destiny to be deemed Worlds Greatest Dad by his now 1 year old son, Rhodes. So, settle in for a nice treat courtesy of one of the best guys I've had the pleasure to call my friend. Thank you, Rob for the wonderful selections, and for everything you have done for me over the years. Rob also wanted to send out special thanks to TBT and the WC Calcutt Foundation. And I, as always, thank you for listening.
