The Ultimate Mingle: The Grateful Dead

The Ultimate Mingle: The Grateful Dead

In the wake of Bob Weir’s passing, Michael Smerconish reflects on discovering the Grateful Dead later in life—and what that journey revealed about music, ritual, and our deep human need to belong. From missed concerts and chance encounters to live shows as modern-day ceremonies, this episode explores how shared experiences create community, meaning, and common purpose in an increasingly fragmented world.
