Benjy Eisen is the co-author of the best selling book 'Deal: My Three Decades of Drumming, Dreams, and Drugs with the Grateful Dead' - a biography of legendary drummer Bill Kreutzmann. He's also the co-host and head writer for the Undermine Podcast.
The gang talks about how a really great song can be modulated to any genre/style, how Benjy coordinated a concert in Hawaii with Billy & The Kids, Billy Strings and Carlos Santana, the story of Benjy meeting The Disco Biscuits, who is the most irreplaceable member of a band and what it takes to make a 'feel good' tune in the modern age - among other things.
Benjy Eisen had a plateful of shrimp with cocktail sauce for lunch.
