Chris Ballew, the lead singer of the rock band The Presidents of the United States of America and children's entertainer, Caspar Babypants, joins me for the latest episode of DarkSkyTwelve. We discuss being a bonafide rockstar in the 1990s, living and touring with Beck, his philosophy on the perception of reality inherent in children from ages zero to five, artistic pursuits in 2024, and more. We discuss cosmic lullabies, Ram Dass, Alan Watts, and much more in this latest episode. All music featured in the episode is written and performed by Caspar Babypants.
