GOD ON THE ROCKS - A New Endeavor From River Jordon

GOD ON THE ROCKS

After 20 years of hosting this little creation called Clearstory Radio on WRFN in Nashville I moved to the North Carolina Coast and embraced the beach and the return to my saltwater roots. But all the while I had this idea for a podcast that was a bit – on location. Something a little different. Akin to Clearstory but one that allows people to explore their passions and discuss them and while they’re at it, discuss them over a drink of their choosing. The kind of conversations that often happened when authors gathered in the bar after a long day of being on panels and presentations at book festivals. That’s what I wanted. The conversations that ran all over the place, down rabbit holes and back up again. I also was asked a question many, many years ago during an author interview that I have never forgotten – If you want to really get to know someone what do you ask them? Simple. I ask them – Who do you love?

That has led me to getting to know a lot of people much better. People I’ve known for years and traveled with in literary circles. But then when I ask this question and they begin to explain to me it is Prince and why – I am captivated and see a side of them I never knew existed.

Enter God On The Rocks, a virtual jazz and blues bar located in The City by the Bay where travelers come because something related to that passion is happening. A late-night view of JAWS – got it. A place to work on your Shakespeare monologues – got it. Old City trees needing a soulful tree doctor – it’s happening. A gallery showing of Vintage Photographs of an old, old river – perfect. And what better job to welcome travelers than bartending at the coolest bar in town, God On The Rocks.

Soulful conversations about the things we love. Seems the perfect ticket right now to put our perceived differences aside and delve into the wonders of living this amazing life.

Welcome to God On The Rocks. Serving up great drinks and soulful conversations since time began.
