Connections Happen When You Put Yourself Out There, A Conversation with Nabil Ayers

See this content in the original post

This week on the podcast, John and Amy spoke with Nabil Ayers, writer, drummer, President of the Beggars Group US, and long time friend and colleague of both Amy and John. Listen to this powerful conversation where the three of them discuss Nabil’s book “My Life In the Sunshine” and his complicated and inspiring search for, and discovery of, family.   

The three of them reminisce about their time in Seattle in the music scene, moving here around the same time and bands and experiences that shaped their lives.  Nabil’s journey is an incredibly rich and emotional story not to mention the fact he started one of the best record stores in Seattle, caught the Journey tour in Utah and stood as a child side stage while the Smiths played. 

Once again on the podcast, a deep connection was discovered live when Amy asks about Nabil’s time in Salt Lake City and the discovery that, not only did they both attend the same high school, but that he was in the same graduating class with her late sister, and at some point, she was on the back of a snowmobile with him.   

Thank you for listening. You are Not Alone,

John, Amy and the whole DR & DJ Team
