In Lucid Pilot Episode 11, we speak with Bill Carbone, Executive Director of nonprofit Teach Rock. I met him as part of earnest networking group Wall St. Dead aHead, where DeadHeads do business with a moral compass. Bill also plays drums for band Max Creek.
Together, we learn how Teach Rock creates free lesson plans in math, science, and social studies using pop culture figures like Kendrick Lamar, Sister Rosetta Tharpe, and The Beatles to inspire both educators and students alike.
We also have a special Grateful Dead affirmation provided by Ultra Head, Staci Smith, of podcast Strangers Stopping Strangers. And, our Jam of the Week snippet is “Racing Fairies” by Turkish Anatolian psyche band Köy Kardeşler.
To hear the episode with full songs including the opening music set, follow the MixCloud Link below, and for the edited version with interview and affirmation use the Spotify link.
