      I was excited to watch it when I saw the notification. Then I forgot all about it before I had the chance.
      Glad I finally remembered they made this episode. Maynard is a great presence in every podcast I've ever seen him on.
      These three together are fantastic.

    Go back in time more years than I care to remember; The DJ Alan 'Fluff' Freeman has either accidentally, or accidentally on purpose, played Hush, pre-watershed on Radio One. When the song is over, he unapologetically declares it to be "very intense". My brother and I discuss this deluge of foul language, seemingly sung through gritted teeth, and its likely ramifications. We conclude that we urgently need this band in our lives. If you had told us then that the lead singer would become an experienced winemaker and builder of communities, we would have laughed in your face. These journeys through life we all take. They seldom lead us where we think we are heading.

    Wow, lots of valuable information in everything I hear this Mr. Keenan talk about. Business, it's just a puzzle. Cross training; it's my acumen. .
    Robert Fripp inspires me this way. Maynard, a tip of my hat to your business acumen. As I said, I'm beginning to sense business as just another puzzle that I can have fun solving. Fripp Sifu again it's his sense of service to the lineage that hits little munchkin egos that just want to roar their mindless swoon as something snobbish.

    Thank you so much for doing this interview for the FBI, James Maynard Keenan, you are the best. I truly have a lot of problems from FBI harassment , and mine and my son's health is suffering severely. They poison our food. If you know anyone that can help us directly, (like law enforcement because I am not crazy) please reference them. This is crazy because you are an awesome musician and totally the man! There are a lot of metalheads and other pseudo-intellectuals that would be jealous of this special attention. This FBI harassment has been going on way to long and there should be some sort of legal limits set!!! WE FEEL HORRIBLE AND WE ARE SCARED. Please, help. I'm sure that you and the other celebrity musicians involved have more then enough influence to resolve this situation for me.

    This is great. My wife and I visit MJK's tasting room in Jerome when we are visiting my mom in AZ. Great wine in a great little town. I have been fortunate to see both Tool and APC a few times. It is rare to get an intimate conversation with Maynard. Awesome show today. I wish it was a couple hours longer but I will take what I can get. APC will be playing again for Maynard's birthday tour next year.

    Good interview, we had a similar conversation yesterday when we had some tepid white belts sign up. It it wasn't for the white belts, we would lose the sport and the ability to train in the future. Their tepidity was from the fear of getting smashed and hurt.
