I wrote this song on Saturday, recorded it yesterday and released it to you today in response to the state terror being visited on the city of Minneapolis. It’s dedicated to the people of Minneapolis, our innocent immigrant neighbors and in memory of Alex Pretti and Renee Good.

Last night, my old podcasting chums @ckjsweeney.bsky.social @rmuldrake.bsky.social & @sarahlblair.bsky.social wrapped the final episode of our #TheXFiles podcast, The X-Cast.
An emotional and meaningful recording that I think we did justice, celebrating a 10 year journey.
