Episode 66 - "Autobiography Of Another Yogi"

Published: July 18, 2023, 8:15 a.m.

A new friend of Jaymee's (actor/screenwriter Thomas Ronca who was raised on Tibetan Buddhism and the teachings of Trungpa Rinpoche), conducts a 90 minute Autobiography Of A Yogi style interview with Jaymee in the Love Serve Remember Foundation kirtan space at Raghu Markus's home in Ojai, CA. Jaymee shares what it was like running away from home at 17 and landing on The Deftones couch in Sacramento, the backstory of how his band got the gig as prom band on That 70's Show, what is was like having a conversation with Father John Misty in a population 18 town called "Harmony", Jaymee's life dealing drugs and surviving addiction and homelessness in downtown Los Angeles, how he found the Beastie Boys and their recording studio in the 90's by studying the hints left in their lyrics, and how he became an ego maniac for 10 years in AA. Jaymee also shares an updated recipe for how to manifest your dreams, how to outgrow any disdain you have for your past, and why he's fallen in love with "Mother Unknown".
