Lyric-driven, simple folk songs are what singer-songwriter Mike Ward: PsychoSongs produces. Currently living in Detroit, Mike was my guest today on this week's edition of Sessions with Sandy, my bi-weekly live music and interview program on Riverwest Radio WXRW 104.1 FM.

We talked with Mike about how he got into music. He shared his insight into the importance of connections in his musical journey. Mike played several songs for us live via Zoom including a new song, "Time".

"We Wonder", his first studio album, was released in 2018, receiving four Detroit Music Award nominations. Additionally, Phil Maq of WHFR 89.3FM named it 2019 Best Folk Album and in his top 100 albums.

His latest album, “The Darkness and the Light” explores a life lived and all you see while looking over the past, the present and future. The album was recognized on the Folk Radio DJ Charts for March and April of 2021.Last year, Mike received four more Detroit Music Award nominations and one finalist for Americana Songwriter.

In this forty-third episode of the Wisdom for Life radio show, hosts Dan Hayes and Greg Sadler discuss the phenomenon that gets called "the gaze" or "the look" (le regard, in French), starting with Jean-Paul Sartre's famous analysis of it, and the examples he provides in Being and Nothingness. They then discuss the notion of the "panopticon" and how it figures into the "surveillance society", and then examine gender and power-relations in the "male gaze".

In this forty-fourth episode of the Wisdom for Life radio show, hosts Dan Hayes and Greg Sadler discuss the upcoming events Stoicon and Stoic Week, both of which offer opportunities for people to learn more about Stoicism as philosophy and as practices.  They also discuss the Stoic view of human nature as "pro-social", that is, as made for living and developing in communities with others.
