Show Me State Of Mind

Dan Friesen

Missouri is known as the "Show Me State," which is dumb. On the flip side of the coin, Dan is a guy from Missouri and he likes to be shown things, even if those things are sometimes pretty dumb. This podcast is a means for him to seek those places out, and meditate on how they relate to their human experience. Music by DJ Danarchy Cover art by Angela Lampsbury
