Hello, my purple people. My apologies for my absence. An overwhelming workload in addition to the pandemic has made it impossible for me to focus the time on the My Prince Story podcast that it deserves. I hope to be back in the near future. But until then, please enjoy the previous podcast episodes.

I took my son Zach on a tour of Paisley Park. I was unsure of how my 17-year-old, who is a big fan of artists like Juice Wrld, would react to a tour of the place that Prince called home and work. Spoiler alert: he was blown away.

This is the story of my first Prince concert which took place in April of 1993 at the Fox Theatre in Detroit. To say that Prince exceeded a 20-year-old fan's expectations would be the understatement of the century.  

For Season 2 of the My Prince Story Podcast, we're going to talk about your first concerts. You can send me a voice memo from your smartphone to dana@myprincepodcast.com. Wanna be a gue...

For this episode I'm joined by my favorite comedian Tony nominated Stephen Lynch and his best friend Rod Cone. Stephen Lynch is one of the most talented singer/songwriters and hilariously inappropriate people I've ever met. This episode is quite a bit different than the usual My Prince Story podcast. If you have a good sense of humor I'm sure you'll enjoy it. If not, it's Rod's fault.
