Joined by guest host, Cole Williams (28:36), multitalented musician and dedicated community organizer, Adam and Cole explore alternate histories where Alicia Keys isn’t human and doesn’t make mistakes, the significance of recognizing both the strengths and weakness within one’s community, and music’s ability to tap into something deeper within all of us, even offering temporary relief from conditions like dementia.
First, Adam and Cole review the NFL/Apple’s controversial decision to post an edited version of Alicia Keys Super Bowl performance, acknowledging the challenges and effort needed to pull off a live show, while also questioning how such edits can subtly alter history despite being witnessed by millions (09:17).
Then, they converse on the profound impact of music, particularly it's ability to provide relief to those with dementia, as it can act as a trigger for memories stored deep within the cerebral cortex, lending credence to the idea of music transcending mere entertainment, but instead resonating on a deeply emotional level (50:13).
Tune in now and enjoy the type of conversations you wish you had around the workplace water cooler!
