Joy Huerta and Benjamin Velez might come from very different musical worlds — Latin pop and musical theatre — but their collaboration on Real Women Have Curves proves just how powerful a cross-genre partnership can be. Meeting for the first time over Zoom in the middle of the pandemic, these two composers built trust, respect, and a Tony-nominated Broadway score entirely online before ever meeting in person. In this episode, they share how they developed unique musical identities for each character, the surprising ways their backgrounds complemented each other, and why their creative process was built on laughter, voice memos, and a lot of mutual admiration. They also open up about the challenges of adaptation, the emotional toll of cutting songs, and the magic of writing a show that celebrates culture, womanhood, and resilience. Joy discusses her transition from pop music to theatre and how it expanded her creative vocabulary, while Benjamin talks about learning to let go of perfection and embrace joyful collaboration. Plus, the duo reflects on what it means to be “activated” — a word you'll never hear the same way again after this conversation. Joy Huerta is a Grammy Award-winning singer-songwriter, best known as one half of the internationally acclaimed Latin pop duo Jesse & Joy. Benjamin Velez is an ASCAP award-winning composer whose work has been developed by Lincoln Center Theater, Ars Nova, and the Public Theater. Together, they co-composed the original Broadway score for Real Women Have Curves, now playing at the James Earl Jones Theatre.

... also sehr alte Musik. Nämlich von der ersten bekannten Komponistin Europas, Kassia (810 bis 862). Aber auch von Guillaume de Machaut (geboren um 1300)und weiteren, anonymen, Komponisten der so genannten Ars Nova. Deren Musik stellt die Flötistin Silvia Berchtold in den zeitgenössischen Kontext neu geschriebener «Antworten» darauf. Im Konzertabend «Doppio» spiegelt sich also alte in neuer Musik. Und «doppio» ist auch das Instrument, das Berchtold spielt: eine Doppelflöte.
Today, we'll be covering the story of how Shion finally got fired from Vector. While Jin Uzuki investigates Gnosis Terrorism—a new phenomenon in which Gnosis under a person's control attack high-population centers—he finds a mysterious young Realian girl being taken care of by the Subcommittee on Close Encounters and Juli Mizrahi. The Subcommittee lab is attacked, and an agent named Doctus, who was sent by an anti-UMN organization called Scientia, kidnaps the Realian girl. Jin and Shion pursue Doctus to a Scientia vessel and are caught. The Captain of the vessel attempts to explain the situation to them, revealing the dangers of the UMN and Vector's role in funding the research that led to the events on Miltia 14 years ago. As Scientia conducts an analysis on the Realian girl, a power awakens in her, and Shion is rendered unconscious as the Realian disappears from the lab. Jin works with Doctus to conduct an encephalon dive into Ars Nova, a top-secret area of the UMN sealed by Vector. There, Jin confronts Grimoire Verum, the father of Nephilim and the orchestrator behind the recent Gnosis attacks. Grimoire attempts to use the Realian as a vessel for his daughter's consciousness, but the Realian girl rejects her memories, and the song of Nephilim turns her into a Gnosis. Grimoire's consciousness is destroyed, but Shion is able to help the Realian regain her memories, calling her by her true name, Almadel. It is revealed that Shion's father had experimented on Almadel, and Shion had befriended her and tried to comfort her in her distress. This also unlocks repressed memories for Shion. Almadel then realizes that she must sacrifice herself to stop the Song of Nephilim from resonating throughout the universe. Shion has an emotional breakdown in response but is roused and comforted by Jin. As a result of this incident, Shion is demoted within Vector, but due to her conflicted feelings about Vector's involvement in all of this and their attempted coverup, she leaves Vector without saying goodbye to KOS-MOS and joins Scientia.

En diciembre 2022, durante el mundial de futbol, regresé por fin a Buenos Aires, después de siete años. Entrevisté a un montón de jóvenes, muy talentosos músicos que luchan con tantísima energía y creatividad para sobrevivir como artistas! En una hermosa tarde de verano encontré a la cantante Nadia Szachniuk en el Barrio Villa Crespo. A Nadia le apasiona cantar desde que se recuerda. Tomó su primer taller de canto a los 5 años. Siguió cantando en este pequeño coro hasta los 8 años. A los 10 años entró en el Coro de niños y jóvenes Ars Nova. Con este coro viajó por muchísimas ciudades del mundo. Fue una gran escuela informal para Nadia. Sus padres también cantaban en el Coro polifónico de Salta. Todos los fines de semana se reunían para las guitarreadas en su casa con los otros cantantes del coro. Así que Nadia aprendió el repertorio folclórico desde muy pequeña. Cuando se trasladó a Buenos Aires, la música se convirtió en el centro de su vida. Allí estudió musicoterapia en la Universidad del Salvador de Buenos Aires y empezó a cantar en varios conjuntos. Desde 2004 forma parte del Coro Nacional de Jóvenes. Al mismo tiempo, tomó clases de canto y estudió canto barroco en el conservatorio. Actualmente, Nadia es profesora de canto en la Universidad Nacional de San Martín, una tarea que también le gusta muchísimo. Nadia ya ha editado varios Compacts. Todo comenzó hace más de 10 años cuando grabó el álbum Vidala con su amiga Eva Sola. Las dos ganaron el Premio Gardel 2012 "Mejor Álbum Nuevo Artista de Folklore". Cuando nos encontramos en diciembre 2022, Nadia estaba ocupada grabando un Compact con el guitarrista Juan Falú. En este proyecto, los dos se dedican al repertorio de Eduardo Falú, el legendario compositor, guitarrista y cantor, tío de Juan, cuya entrevista ya hemos presentado en otro podcast. Pero Nadia tiene muchísimos mas proyectos en Argentina y Europa. Escuchen ustedes mismos todo lo que me contó esta fascinante cantante salteña en aquella hermosa tarde de verano.

World War II. Somewhere in Germany. Accompanied by a cameraman shooting propaganda for Mother Russia, a ragtag platoon fighting the Nazis receives a distress signal from fellow soldiers and heads off to investigate. They approach a church where no Russians can be found, but the church is inhabited by creatures who appear to be constructed from weapons, parts of machines and vehicles, but still have blood flowing through their veins. The creatures seem like part of the Nazi war machine, but then, one can't be sure in the fog of war. Soon, cut off from the outside world, the platoon is surrounded, their C.O. down. It's up to the rest to get inside the factory of a mad scientist, and soon discovers just where the creatures are from, who created them, and why they exist.

It's been a while since true crime writer Ellison Oswalt had a bestseller, and the strain is starting to show on Ellison, his wife Tracy, and their kids Trevor and Ashley. Local law enforcement isn't keen on him, either, as his last few books didn't cast them in too fond a light. So Ellison and his family take up residence in a modest Pennsylvania ranch house with something of a history – something we learn when we watch as a family is lynched in the house's back yard. Unfortunately, this may be his last chance at the big time, so Ellison neglects to inform Tracy of this, and when things start going bump in the night, and the home movies left behind reveal ominous clues about a killer's identity, Ellison finds himself turning from the hunter to the hunted. A helpful deputy steps in to assist, as well as a professor of the occult, but by the time they reveal their own information, the situation has devolved from strange… to sinister.

Rad Pereira is an old soul-young heart theater artist, writer, educator, and community activist with a very clear sense of purpose and direction --- defined by questions like: How can we imagine, and manifest alternate futures together? Was my body conditioned to survive in a world not made for me? and Can the natural world function as a moral compass? BIOI am a multi-spirit mixed Black, Indigenous Brazilian, Jewish (im)migrant artist currently based in Lenapehoking (Brooklyn). My creative practices range from social sculpture, to popular theatrical and TV/film performance, to participatory liberatory artmaking and healing that weaves together an Afro-futurist longing for transformative justice and queer (re)Indigenization of culture.I put in a lot of hours to get to where, how and why I am today, with the guidance of many mentors and dedication to cultivating an ancestor led, faithful intuition. I was trained up in Eurocentric theatre and dance on scholarship at Interlochen Arts Academy and Pace University. I kept the parts of that training which were useful and shed the constricting parts. Since then I have been building connection with my ancestral modes of creativity, storytelling and next world building.

In this week's episode, Jennifer chats with Chie Morita about the loaded topic that is finance, especially for artists. Chie shares incredible perspective on approaching money as a tool in which numbers tell a story and the way in which budgeting is a personal value statement. They unpack hypothetical situations around these topics and give insight into the alternative ways to think about one's finances in hopes of empowering oneself towards creating both the life and art they truly desire. CW — this episode touches on many large topics that can come up around the discussion of finances and does not aim to “solve” them as much as naming them. Some topics mentioned: guilt, shame, wealth and value, capitalism, societal/class structures, budgeting and scarcity mindset, racism, generational trauma, challenging belief systems, and the way we can belittle ourselves. About Chie: Chie Morita (森田千恵 | she/her) is a consultant, creative producer, and consummate tinkerer dedicated to retraining our inherited habits and engineering empowering new systems in the arts. She is a Co-Founder + Partner of FORGE, a boutique consultancy devoted to helping artists and organizations take the next step in their own work. By leveraging the potential of proactive planning, holistic mentorship, and collaborative asking, Chie seeks to free Makers from historical hindrances, socialized stereotypes, and negative self-stories. From 2017-2019, Chie served as the Deputy Director at Town Stages, a Cultural Arts and Event space in Tribeca, where she created, curated, and managed the Sokoloff Arts Fellowship Program, which offered space, mentorship, and resources to makers of all kinds. While at Town, she had the pleasure of working with artists such as Third Rail Projects, The Macallan, Art Beyond The Glass, Patreon, Milajam, Spotify, Fault Line Theatre Company, and many others. In New York, she has worked with Tony-Award-winning Broadway Producer Joey Parnes (on A Gentleman's Guide to Love and Murder, Vanya and Sonia and Masha and Spike, End of the Rainbow), institutions including The Public Theater, The Musical Theater Factory, Ars Nova, Statera Arts Mentorship: NYC, and New York Neo-Futurists (who, under her care, were awarded three Drama Desk nominations), and such independent artists and ensembles as Heather Christian and the Arbornauts, Esperance Theater Company, Extant Arts Company, UglyRhino, Panicked Productions, Fresh Ground Pepper, and art.party.theater.company.

Art is essential. You'll likely find beauty on the other side of tragedy. Work for personal satisfaction, not awards. Theater, art in general, is a cathartic experience for both the artist and the audience. We all have different strengths and weaknesses. Embrace them go all in! The unknown is scary, it's also where the gold is. Don't assign judgment (good or bad) to words, thoughts or feelings. Be open-minded. There is endless possibility when we take risks. You can have it all, but you can't have it all at the same time. We feel the most joy and happiness when we're pursuing the things we're most passionate about. Each of us has inherent gifts that we were born with, that come naturally and easy to us. Because they come so easy to us we often don't recognize them as superpowers. It takes reflection to be aware of our superpowers, prioritize it. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
