Podcasts about artists

Familiarity does strange things to judgment. It's surprisingly easy to feel informed about people we've never met. Artists, leaders, creators, public figures. When someone has been around long enough, their presence alone can start to feel like understanding. But being familiar with someone isn't the same as knowing them. Using the recent conversation around Sean “Diddy” Combs as a loose reference point, we talk about what happens when new information messes with a picture we already had in our heads. How quickly we settle into stories about people. How slow we are to change them. How much of what we “know” is really just repetition and proximity doing their thing? We also explore the concept of parasocial attachment, examining why closeness (real or imagined) sometimes softens our judgment and how familiarity often convinces us we've figured someone out. . . . If, while you're listening, something crosses your mind, or you get that urge to jump into the conversation, we'd love to hear from you!

When we talk about Hispanic music in America, we're talking about a story that's been here all along. In the 1950s and '60s, this music lived mostly inside the community. Mexican rancheras and mariachi carried stories of home and heartbreak. Cuban rhythms like mambo and cha-cha-chá filled dance halls. Spanish-language radio became a cultural lifeline. By the 1970s, identity moved front and center. The Chicano movement gave music a political voice. Santana blended Latin rhythms with rock, and salsa exploded in New York. This music wasn't asking for permission anymore — it was claiming space. In the 1980s and '90s, doors opened wider. Artists like Gloria Estefan, Selena, Ricky Martin, and Shakira brought bilingual and Spanish-language music into the American mainstream. In the 2000s, regional sounds took hold — reggaeton, banda, norteño — telling stories about immigration, work, and daily life. Today, Hispanic music isn't crossing over. It is the mainstream. Artists like Bad Bunny and Karol G don't translate themselves — they invite the world in. So when we listen to Hispanic music in America, we're listening to history, resilience, and culture — shaping the sound of America itself.

Disney is taking all kinds of heat from artists over their decision to throw in with OpenAI. Glitch Productions publicly called them out, and a Lorcana artist is claiming they will no longer work with Disney.

What happens when you realize the way you've been working isn't sustainable? When you've built something successful but it's costing you sleep, peace of mind, and the very things you set out to protect? In this solo episode, host Alyson Stanfield gets really vulnerable with a question most artists face at some point: Who am I if I change the way I've always done things? It's about the pressure to maintain what you've always done because that's what you identify with, the FOMO that makes you say yes when your gut says no, and the overwhelm that comes from adding more and more to your plate. Artists don't need more information—they need containers to organize it, filters to prioritize it, and boundaries to protect themselves from overwhelm. You'll hear about identity shifts, the power of asking "where can I lower the bar?" and what it looks like to evolve from consuming content to building frameworks that actually support your business.

Now the government is planning to make the program permanent. The post Ireland hopes to make a program giving artists a stable income permanent appeared first on The World from PRX.

Bob “Bongo” Starkie was one of Australian rock's most colourful and enduring guitarists — a player whose sharp riffs, cheeky humour, and rhythmic pulse powered Skyhooks from Melbourne cult heroes to national icons. Bongo's journey before, during, and after the band reflects a musician who never lost his spark. Starkie passed away on 29 November 2025, prompting an outpouring of affection from fans and fellow artists who saw him as a vital thread in the fabric of Australian music.Growing up in Melbourne, Bob was drawn to guitar early and spent his young adulthood shaping his craft in pubs, clubs, and rehearsal rooms. He played in a string of local outfits where he built a reputation for clean, punchy rhythm work and an upbeat stage presence. Even before he had a national profile, musicians around the city knew him as reliable, talented, and quietly charismatic — the sort of guitarist other bands wanted to poach.Starkie joined Skyhooks in 1973, stepping into a band that would become one of Australia's most influential rock acts. Skyhooks arrived like a shockwave: irreverent, glammy, theatrical, and unmistakably Australian.Bob's guitar style became a pillar of their sound — tight, melodic, rhythmic, and full of playful swagger. His work powered hits from Living in the '70s and Ego Is Not a Dirty Word, including classics like “Horror Movie,” “You Just Like Me 'Cause I'm Good in Bed,” “Ego Is Not a Dirty Word,” and “Women in Uniform.”Onstage, Bob brought a grounded confidence that balanced the band's wilder theatrical edges. He wasn't the loudest personality in Skyhooks, but his presence was essential — the rhythmic engine room that kept the glitter-covered chaos driving forward.After the band's original era wound down, Starkie remained a working musician through and through. He played in a variety of groups, collaborated widely, and stayed active across Melbourne's music scene.Eventually, he took on a role that fans adored: fronting Bob Starkie's Skyhooks Show, a touring act that kept the band's catalogue alive with humour, heart, and authenticity. Unlike a tribute act, this was the real thing — Starkie playing the music he helped make famous. Audiences loved him for it, and the shows often became celebrations shared across generations.He also contributed frequently to interviews, documentaries, and retrospectives, offering his memories with warmth and clarity. Starkie took pride in the band's legacy and made sure the stories — and the songs — stayed alive.In his final years, Starkie continued performing and engaging with the music community whenever his health allowed. His death led to a wave of tributes across Australia. Artists, fans, music journalists, and former bandmates remembered him as a generous, grounded musician who gave everything to his craft and never lost his sense of fun.Bob “Bongo” Starkie leaves behind more than riffs and records — he leaves behind decades of memories, laughter, friendship, and the unmistakable sound of Skyhooks, a band that helped Australia find its own voice in rock 'n' roll. From his early days in Melbourne pubs to his final shows proudly flying the Skyhooks flag, he stayed true to the music and the people who loved it.His legacy will continue to ring out every time a Skyhooks classic blasts through a speaker.In this episode we explore Bongo's musical life, listening to hin tell his own story, in his own words. Whether you're already familar with the band Skyhooks, or just discovering them for the first time, I'm sure you're going to enjoy hearing Bob's story.For more information, comments or feedback, head to ny website https://www.abreathoffreshair.com.au

The episode closes with his advice about putting your heart into your work and staying patient because success can take years.Who is Zerb: Zerb, a São Paulo born producer, is known for pushing the boundaries of electronic music with a self taught style rooted in authenticity. His EP SURRENDER reflects 10 years of work and showcases the sound that has carried him onto the global stage.

Artists played include Nirvana, Carole King, Prefab Sprout, Massive Attack, MS MR, Rainbow, Weezer, and many more.

On this episode Donna and Orlando sat down with Sidewalk Detroit Program Director, Augusta Morrison and Earth Futures Fellow, Billy Mark to discuss the Echoes Soundmaps project and how they're advancing public life through the lens of arts, culture, collaborative design and deep engagement with residents. Sidewalk Detroit exists to advance public life and strong social infrastructure through the lens of arts, culture, collaborative design and deep engagement with residents. They practice an inclusive approach to creative city and neighborhood building that combines vision of residents, strategy, and artistic ideation to create engaging spaces, programs and experiences that improve communities across metro-detroit.Echoes Soundmaps are created by placing audio files (voices, rhythms, poems, field recordings) onto specific zones on a digital map, like putting a pin on a google map, and then attaching/ uploading an audio file. Each zone can have its own shape, size, and behavior. These zones become invisible layers of sound over real places. When someone walks through the space with the echoes app, their phone's gps triggers the audio in the zones they enter as they do the sound plays.To learn more about Sidewalk Detroit, click here. FOR HOT TAKES:MICHIGAN OFFICIALS INSIST 2019 AUTO NO-FAULT LAW LOWERED CAR INSURANCE RATES.

In this episode of the Wander Your Way Travel Podcast, Lynne sits down with author Kat Koch to dive into the magic, mystery, and everyday beauty of West Cork, Ireland — the place that inspired her memoir, Rainbow Weather: Stories from a Beautiful Nowhere.Kat shares how a childhood dream, sparked by a piece of film music, eventually pulled her across the Atlantic and into the rugged, soul-stirring landscapes of West Cork. She spent four and a half years living there, following her intuition, navigating challenges, and discovering the serendipitous moments that shaped both her book and her personal journey.Together, Lynne and Kat chat about the warmth of the West Cork community, the power of traveling with an open heart, and how letting curiosity lead the way can create the most unexpected connections. Kat reflects on how the Irish countryside — its coastline, its quiet, its raw beauty — changed her, grounded her, and helped her integrate the highs and lows of living abroad.If you're dreaming of Ireland or searching for a destination rich with culture, scenery, and soul, this conversation delivers plenty of inspiration. Kat leaves listeners with thoughtful travel wisdom and her favorite hidden gems across West Cork — the kind of places that make you want to pack a bag and chase a little “rainbow weather” of your own.Want to chat more about West Cork?Email Lynne — Lynne@WanderYourWay.comIn this episode:1:19: Intro + Kat Koch bio5:20: Placing West Cork Ireland on the map5:45: Kat's story12:07: Writing a book15:19: Challenges & perks23:43: Ending a chapter26:49: Favorite places39:07: Standout stories45:12: More popular places54:08: Final thoughts1:02:33: My final thoughts on Kat's book1:04:39: Wrapping it upImportant links: Rainbow Weather: Stories From a Beautiful Nowhere by Kat KochRainbow Weather InstagramWest Cork IrelandThe Best Things to Do in Schull and West Cork Ireland Tracy's List (Solo Traveler)West Cork (Ireland tourism)Wander Your Way ResourcesWander Your Way AdventuresWander Your Way ★ Support this podcast ★

I CAN ONLY TRY TO IMAGINE THE SHOCK AND SURPRISE THAT DR. DALEO'S PARENT'S FELT WHEN THEIR DAUGHTER'S SCHOOL DECLARED HER "MENTALLY RETARDED" BASED ON TEST RESULTS FROM RECENT TESTS. THANK GOODNESS HER MOM AND DAD HAD THE WHERE WITH ALL, FINANCIAL ABILITY AND GOOD COMMON SENSE TO HAVE HER TESTED BY A PROFESSIONAL. DR. ROXIE WAS THEN OFFICIALLY DIAGNOSED AS BEING DYSLEXIC. ACCORDING TO THE OXFORD LANGUAGES DICTIONARY, THIS IS THEIR DEFINITION OF DYSLEXIA-"a condition of neurodevelopmental origin that mainly affects the ease with which a person reads, writes, and spells, typically recognized as a specific learning disorder in children."  DR. ROXIE EXPLAINS HOW "THIS EVENT CAUSED SO MUCH ANXIETY. IF NOT FOR MY MOTHER AND FATHER, ROXANNE WOULD HAVE BEEN PUT IN A SPECIAL SCHOOL OR WORSE, SHE WOULD HAVE GOTTEN LOST IN THE SHUFFLE. WITH AN INCREDIBLE WILL TO LEARN AND HER PARENTS ENCOURAGEMENT, "THEY HELPED THEIR DAUGHTER GROW WITH A COMMITMENT  NOT ONLY FOR SELF DISCOVERY BUT ALSO USE OF HER OWN AGENCY." THEY TAUGHT THEIR DAUGHTER TO USE MENTAL SKILLS OF VISIONING AND TAUGHT HER HOW TO ACHIEVE HER GOALS IN LIFE."SHE WAS COMPLETELY PRESENT TO EACH AND EVERYONE OF US," REFERRING TO HERSELF AND HER TWO SIBLINGS. "SHE KNEW TO TAKE US ONE ON ONE AND NOT TOGETHER," DR ROXIE EXPLAINS. HER MOM CALLED IT "LOVING TIME."THERE IS SO MUCH MORE TO THIS STORY. ANNE, MY GUEST'S MOTHER ALLOWED HER DAUGHTER TO EXPERIENCE LIFE WITH HER EDUCATIONAL STRUGGLES, YET ALL THE LESSONS HER MOTHER TAUGHT HER, DR. DALEO IS NOW HELPING MANY MANY CHILDREN EXPERIENCING SIMILAR LEARNING DIFFICULTIES. DR. DALEO HAD A VERY LOVING AND POWERFUL RELATIONSHIP WITH HER MOTHER. ANN WAS AN ARTIST, A SEAMSTRESS AND A WONDERFUL TEACHER. ANOTHER ONE OF HER FAVORITE SAYINGS WAS " A THING DONE BY HALF IS NEVER DONE RIGHT.  FINISH WHAT YOU START WITH ALL OF YOUR MIGHT."ROXANNE AND I DISCUSS  ALTERNATIVE PRACTICES AND TECHNIQUES FOR LEARNING AND FINDING BALANCE IN LIFE FOR CHILDREN, INCLUDING MEDITATION, VISUALIZATION, ETC.THERE IS SO MUCH MORE RELATABLE INFORMATION TO THIS STORY. A MOTHER WHO WAS ABLE TO STAY HOME AND CARVE OUT ONE-ON-ONE TIME WITH HER DAUGHTERS. AN IMPORTANT MESSAGE FROM DR DALEO IS "THAT IF YOU FAIL AT SOMETHING AND TRY AGAIN, IT DOESN'T MEAN YOU SHOULD ABANDON IT. THIS SENSE OF FORTITUDE AND STICK-TO-ITIVENESS IS A LOST ART."NOTES FROM DR. DALEO PhD:I help children and parents reduce anxiety naturally using expressive arts, mind-body tools, and evidence-based stress-reduction practices.As a Harvard-trained specialist with over 25 years of experience, my work bridges psychology, expressive arts, and integrative wellness. I've supported thousands of families, educators, and practitioners seeking non-drug, practical ways to calm the nervous system and strengthen emotional resilience.My mission is simple: raise a generation of calm, confident children—naturally.I create programs, workshops, and guided experiences that give families proven tools to navigate anxiety, boost self-regulation, and reconnect to creativity and inner wisdom. My approach blends neuroscience, storytelling, imagery, and somatic practices to help children feel safe, seen, and empowered.I work with:• Parents seeking natural strategies for anxious children• Educators, counselors, and child-focused practitioners• Organizations committed to child mental health + wellness• Families looking for expressive arts–based tools to thriveIf you're dedicated to the wellbeing of children and want to integrate mind-body practices into daily life, you'll love this episode! Hummingbird youtube video for kids:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xBmtpqqp63EThe most common reaction to the good things that happen in life is to try to hold on, hold on tighter, making every effort to have that good stay and wall out the bad stuff.Try as we may, we don't want anything bad to happen to us -whatever “bad” is! And-if that bad thing does happen, we'll say:”This is a very bad, horrible, terrible thing!”Rather than, suspending judgement and saying to yourself: “This is interesting...could be bad, could be good.” In this video, you learn how to have a soft touch to all emotions in your life. INCLUDES A SONG with a catchy tune and rhyme for easy recall and learning.IF YOU GO TO DR.

The Author Events Series presents Steven Pinker  | When Everyone Knows That Everyone Knows . . . In Conversation with Annie Duke Common knowledge is necessary for coordination, for making arbitrary but complementary choices like driving on the right, using paper currency, and coalescing behind a political leader or movement. It's also necessary for social coordination: everything from rendezvousing at a time and place to speaking the same language to forming enduring relationships of friendship, romance, or authority. Humans have a sixth sense for common knowledge, and we create it with signals like laughter, tears, blushing, eye contact, and blunt speech. But people also go to great lengths to avoid common knowledge-to ensure that even if everyone knows something, they can't know that everyone else knows they know it. And so we get rituals like benign hypocrisy, veiled bribes and threats, sexual innuendo, and pretending not to see the elephant in the room. Pinker shows how the hidden logic of common knowledge can make sense of many of life's enigmas: financial bubbles and crashes, revolutions that come out of nowhere, the posturing and pretense of diplomacy, the eruption of social media shaming mobs and academic cancel culture, the awkwardness of a first date. Artists and humorists have long mined the intrigues of common knowledge, and Pinker liberally uses their novels, jokes, cartoons, films, and sitcom dialogues to illuminate social life's tragedies and comedies.  Consistently riveting in explaining the paradoxes of human behavior, When Everyone Knows That Everyone Knows... invites us to understand the ways we try to get into each other's heads and the harmonies, hypocrisies, and outrages that result. Steven Pinker is the Johnstone Professor of Psychology at Harvard University. He has won many prizes for his teaching, his research on language, cognition, and social relations, and his twelve books, including The Language Instinct, How the Mind Works, The Better Angels of Our Nature, Enlightenment Now, and Rationality. He is an elected member of the National Academy of Sciences, a two-time Pulitzer Prize finalist, and one of Time's ''100 Most Influential People in the World Today.'' Annie Duke is an author, speaker, and consultant in the decision-making space, as well as Special Partner focused on Decision Science at First Round Capital Partners, a seed stage venture fund. Annie's latest book, Quit: The Power of Knowing When to Walk Away, was released in 2022 from Portfolio, a Penguin Random House imprint. Her previous book, Thinking in Bets, is a national bestseller. As a former professional poker player, she has won more than $4 million in tournament poker. During her career, Annie won a World Series of Poker bracelet and is the only woman to have won the World Series of Poker Tournament of Champions and the NBC National Poker Heads-Up Championship. She retired from the game in 2012. Prior to becoming a professional poker player, Annie was awarded a National Science Foundation Fellowship to study Cognitive Psychology at the University of Pennsylvania, where she earned her master's degree. In 2021 she returned to her alma mater as a Visiting Scholar, where she also teaches executive education. In 2023 Annie completed her PhD in Cognitive Psychology.

In this inspiring conversation, I'm joined by Robert Schultz - LA-based dancer, choreographer, educator, and founder of Artists in Training - to explore how dancers can build a thriving career in today's ever-changing industry.Together, we dig into how class culture has shifted in the age of social media, why dancers crave instant gratification, and the impact that “getting it on film” has had on training. Robert also breaks down how Artists Training was created to bring connection, consistency, and deeper purpose back to the convention model - helping dancers not just improve their technique, but understand who they are as humans and artists.This episode is full of honesty, humor, and powerful reminders about staying grounded, trusting your path, and never giving yourself an expiration date.Key Points in this Episode: Robert's early dance beginnings and how his first teacher recognized his natural talent The differences between the NYC and LA dance scene Why proper warmup, longevity, and technique still matter (and why he refuses to shorten class!) Professionalism on set: respect, communication, and the behaviors that get dancers rehired The creation of Artists Training and how it blends convention energy with mentorship and mindset work Studio culture: competition vs. community and the power of genuine support Why dancers shouldn't give themselves an “expiration date” when pursuing a professional careerConnect with Robert:INSTAGRAM: instagram.com/moveyoutoinspireAIT INSTAGRAM: instagram.com/artistsintrainingWEBSITE: www.aitdance.comLinks and Resources:Visit the Ballet Help Desk: https://ballethelpdesk.com/Get your copy of The Intentional Career HandbookLet's connect!My WEBSITE: thebrainyballerina.comINSTAGRAM: instagram.com/thebrainyballerina1-1 CAREER MENTORING: book your complimentary career callQuestions/comments?

The 44-year-old physician — known in court documents as “Dr. P” — pleaded guilty in July to four counts of illegal drug distribution.Court records show Plasencia supplied multiple vials to the Friends star and at times personally administered injections, even in a parked car, despite knowing the actor was vulnerable due to addiction.In handing down sentence, Judge Sherilyn Peace Garnett condemned the doctor's actions. “You and others helped Mr. Perry on the road to such an ending by continuing to feed his ketamine addiction,” she said.
