Happy Holidays from Into the Lion's Den Podcast. There will be no more episodes for 2021. Stay tuned for what's to come in the New Year, 2022.  If you are really itching to hear any podcasts about music, locally, and have already listened to all of these episodes, go check out Chatta Heavy. They have a brand new episode this week. Also, RIP Jamie Black. My thoughts go out to the family and friends that survive them. I was fortunate enough to know them, and as everyone in the scene has stated already, they were a staple in our community. Spend time with the ones you love and make sure they know you love them. Have a safe and happy holiday season! Music in the Podcast: Rainy Day Parade- Bells Support the show

This week's guest is Ares Davis of Dream Collective and Strange Trees, a man that is multi-facetted, multi-talented, and diverse in his influences. From growing up in foster care, free-styling in his bedroom, to making "phil-hop" and rock music. We dive into the socio-political and spiritual realm, as that is a huge inspiration and much of his music's subject mater. We also touch on video games, streaming, the blending of the world of gaming and music, and a little bit about how this podcast is made. We had a couple audio hiccups since I had a cold, but also had an ex-band member and friend of Ares jump into the conversation as well.  This is definitely a totally different episode than usual, but we had a blast doing it.

This week's guest is someone who has always been a staple in our local scene, from booking shows, running a music venue(The Warehouse,) and being in many bands that were really important to many people in this area. We talk about his upbringing with his brothers, rebelling against typical Christian music, and his whole musical journey from being in Within all the way to his solo project, William Casey. We also discuss being Christian in times that are still very much divided.  (There are a few audio hiccups, but I felt like it was too good to cut.) It's a long episode that I almost made a two parter, but I was just too excited to split it up. Enjoy!
