Episode 4 ”Sleepover with Stevie Ray Vaughan”

Author: Jason Petrunik March 30, 2019 Duration: 1:08:45
EPISODE 4: J-man sits down with David Gogo, multiple Maple Blues Award Winner and JUNO nominee...he's even had a JUNO disqualification! We also discuss him sleeping on Ray Vaughan's hotel room floor and the last words Stevie spoke to David that made a lifetime impact. David also defines success and what "making it" looks like to him, the people he's played with, from Johnny Winter to B.B King and how the music industry has changed since he was playing rented halls with his friends as a teenager. He also gives us a peek into him family life, relationships and how much of that might make it into a song. It's a jam packed edition of The Launchpad, buckle up and enjoy.

Hosted by Jason Petrunik, The "HARD TRUTH" feat. J-man started with a focus on personal growth but evolved significantly as our collective reality shifted. Confronted by a fractured public discourse and a changing media landscape, Jason felt a need to steer the conversation toward the substantive and often overlooked. This podcast now delves into the stories and ideas that shape our world, weaving through news, culture, politics, and society with a direct and questioning perspective. The aim isn't to preach but to examine, offering a platform for discussions that can feel sidelined by more mainstream channels. You'll hear conversations that attempt to bridge divides, not by avoiding difficult subjects, but by engaging with them honestly. The tone is straightforward, driven by a belief that understanding complex issues requires looking beyond simplified narratives. Each episode is an effort to share information and perspectives that contribute to a more nuanced view of current events and cultural shifts. Tune in for a thoughtful, and at times challenging, exploration of the forces defining our modern experience.
