Tales from the Golden Road

Our friends at Sirius XM have kindly provided some clips from their roundtable discussion program, Tales From The Golden Road, featuring expert hosts David Gans and Gary Lambert. The weekly show tackles everything from watershed years to concert counter culture and calls upon a dynamic cast of characters - including band members themselves - to uncover the Dead's most pivotal and poignant moments. And perhaps most importantly, David and Gary take time to talk you, the fans!

Tales from the Golden Road airs in full every Sunday from 4 to 6pm Eastern time (1 to 3 pm Pacific) on the Sirius XM Grateful Dead Channel (Sirius 32 and XM 57). Each show is rebroadcast the next day, Monday at 9:00 am. We'll post clips here when we can.
