About this listen

Kari connects Ian to his cat Samir, as he talks about balancing on one leg while playing the flute, how he knew to follow his musical gifts and stay on that life path, how he doesn't dwell on being down or depressed for more than a few minutes and being an optimistic person, going for brief walks in the garden during the day as a reunion with nature, being a loner and not needing to be in the company of people, Ian's new video that addresses homeless for "Aqualung," which celebrates its 50th anniversary, how he wrote "Aqualung," homeless and the climate crisis, the importance of being socially responsible whether it's family planning in our overpopulated planet or thinking of our fellow human beings by wearing a mask or getting a vaccine as the human species becomes increasingly threatened, and a life lesson in Rudyard Kipling's "The Cat That Walked By Himself" in "Just So Stories."
