Name Taken Podcast: Who Else Out There Is Named Michael Marshall?
According to the US Census records there are at least 2900 Americans that share my full name (Michael Marshall). Unsurprisingly there are many more across the greater English-speaking world. So, I decided to set out and interview the other Michael Marshalls to see what they're all like. Why not right? And it's actually been a riot. Michael Marshalls are rad! Among us are authors, pro athletes, activists, journalists, artists, really cool dads, architects, carpenters, inventors, actors and so much more. Each week I speak to a different Michael Marshall about their own experiences as well as their shared experience of our name.

PART 2 of my interview with three-time Grammy nominated mandolin and mandocello virtuoso Mike Marshall. Mike and I dive deep into a lengthy discussion about his incredibly long and musically diverse musical career. In particular we talk about the ways Mike has explored the rich history of the mandolin and how that helped him carve out new musical territories to explore. We talk about the ways mandolin and bluegrass have broken out to mainstream audiences since his beginnings in the 1970's.
