“Lived Through That” is the companion podcast to my book where I look at influential 90s musicians and where they are today. On this podcast, we’ll delve deeper into a single pivotal moment in the lives of some of the artists I feature in the book. The stories they tell are open, honest, and inspiring. On this episode, we talk to musician Vic Varney from the Method Actors.  Vic was a key figure in the Athens, Georgia scene of the late 70s, early 80s - right there alongside R.E.M., the B-52s, and Pylon.  Today he shares with us how a song he wrote in 15 minutes changed the course of his life.  This episode is dedicated to the memory of David Gamble, who was half of the Method Actors and who sadly passed away in 2021.
