3 Chords & the Truth: The defining lie?

What if everything you were supposed to believe about yourself -- and where you are from -- was a lie?

That's the gist of our centerpiece musical exploration on this week's 3 Chords & the Truth.

What if the glorious "heritage" you were taught to take pride in was, instead, a more compelling case for intense shame?

WHAT DO YOU MAKE of that? If you -- if your region and culture -- have been held captive by a defining historical lie, how do you make peace with the present and move on to the future?

If you have any good answers, contact me at mail@revolution21.org.

Intrigued? You should be. It's a hell of a question, and we meditate upon it through some great -- and diverse -- music this week.

Of course, in addition to the seriousness, we have a lot of fun, too. That's because the Big Show is the place where you never know what's going to be thrown at you next. Every song an adventure, I say.

And you'll be saying that, too.

It's 3 Chords & the Truth, and you can listen right now, right here.

Be there. Aloha.


UPDATE: You did know that the show is available on iTunes, right? Just go to podcasts and search for 3 Chords & the Truth. It's as simple as that, and you can become a subscriber.
