This is a special podcast (see title). This is a Hearsay Poetry Podcast of firsts: going live, featuring live music, and sharing a little bit of life during this strange time of quarantine. Please note and forgive any “live” moments, such as responding to Facebook comments or invisible hand gestures that don’t make sense. While I love producing this podcast and would love nothing more than to spend hours of my free quarantine time editing this audio down to a perfect listener experience, eh. It’s all gravy baby. Also, we should all know too well now that time isn’t free. Enjoy listening. And watch the live video on Facebook.

Jack Schultz started playing piano at the age of five. At sixteen he started to teach himself guitar and began writing songs. He found a bass guitar at the crossroads while the devil was taking a nap. He’s been laying down bass ever since, even picking up the upright bass to keep the devil off his back. Jack currently plays in four Austin bands: Choctaw Wildfire, The Swamp Bats (bass), Underwater Ghost Town, and Milicent Hughes (guitar).
