I wanted to share this in posterity to remember Mike’s graciousness and commitment to new media like ours and gifted writers like Christopher, who we hope to see posting again soon.

I was in El Paso when this aired after visiting with Dr. Guy McPherson in New Mexico and doing some media work with Blazing Kat Productions, who were producing episodes of the show OWS Week. Occupy is how I met Mike, so the timing seemed very kismet.  I thank Christopher Weller for his work and commitment to providing spiritual refreshment for our readers over the years.

*Just realized in this installment Mike shares the song, “Calling All Angels” by Jane Siberry and KD Lang. The same song he shared on his last show before he shed this mortal coil. Crazy eclipse, man. ~ Gabrielle Price
