Graham Nash joins Eric in conversation about his life of political activism and specifically the 2016 election. Lots of F bombs (fascism and f*ck) dropped while we passionately discuss today's headlines and the election of Donald Trump. What it means to race relations, gender equality, the environment, to progressivism, civil rights and so much more. If you're on the other side of the fence on this one, it's probably not for you as we get pretty pointed. If you're like minded, hope you'll enjoy some very honest thoughts from one of the leading artistic voices on the left for over 40 years. Either way, stick to the end when I ask him how his dear friend Joni Mitchell is doing these days. Above all, teach your children well.
