Today’s episode is a fan chat with a musician and podcaster who I’ve gotten to know a little over the last 12 months or so and wanted to learn more about. Greg Wolfe, or Wolfie as he’s more commonly known in the podcast universe, is a bass player and band leader for the Connecticut-based band Accidental Breakdown. He’s also one of the co-hosts of the Regarding Series of podcasts which breaks down a much-maligned album each season to see if it has any redeeming qualities. It’s a show I’ve been lucky to guest on a couple of times and I’ve always enjoyed Wolfie’s insights when we’ve chatted. We talk Lou Reed, Bob Marley, starting a lifetime of music on bass guitar, the value of playing with people who are better than you, and of course, Tom Petty!We talk about Tom being the quintessential American rocker and how Petty resonates with you at different stages in your life.You can find Wolfie on Soundcloud here: https://soundcloud.com/greg-wolfe-927450616And you can tune in to the Regarding Series here: https://go.goodpods.com/KrTXANDon't forget to follow me on social media, like, subscribe, and please, leave a rating if you like the show.Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/thetompettyprojectBluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/tompettyproject.bsky.socialInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/thetompettyprojectYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@thetompettyprojectThreads: https://www.threads.net/@thetompettyprojectAll music, including the theme song, provided by my very best friend Randy Woods.
