This week on Comes A Time, the one and only Steve Parish joins the guys for the third time for “an exclusive of things I’ve never talked about before,” according to Steve. You’ll hear the guys discuss everything from why the Grateful Dead were the ultimate American patriots, to details about Ben Franklin borrowing ideologies from the Iroquois Nation to create the basis of our society. Steve also talks about how America can get back to its positive fundamental values, similarities between Grateful Dead songs and American history, and his cannabis company Grizzly Peak.Steve Parish has been at the center of the Grateful Dead family for over 50 years. He first joined the band as a roadie in 1969, but it wasn’t long before he became Jerry Garcia’s trusted gear handler, and the manager of the Jerry Garcia Band. Over the years, Parish and Garcia forged an unbreakable bond. Parish was the last friend to see Jerry before his untimely death in 1995, but has continued to maintain his relationships with the rest of the Grateful Dead family. In 2017 Steve started Grizzly Peak, a California-based cannabis company that grows pesticide-free, premium cannabis flower.Check out Steve’s website: https://www.bigsteveparish.com-----------*DISCLAIMER: This podcast does NOT provide medical advice.
