Ffilm 4 munud a 2 eiliad o hyd a wnaed gan Peter Finnemore yn 2004 yw Eve of Destruction. Mae'r ffilm yn dechrau gyda llwyfan byrfyfyr gwag mewn gardd werdd ar brynhawn llachar yn yr hydref. Mae slab concrit hindreuliedig mawr wedi'i osod yn y glaswellt ac mae lein sychu â dillad arni yn siglo yn y cefndir. O flaen y slab y mae blodyn haul mewn pot terracotta a dim ond tair deilen yn hongian yn is na'i flodyn uchaf, sy'n wynebu oddi arnon ni. Yn eistedd ar y slab i'r dde o'r blodyn haul y mae cath lliw llwyd a gwyn o flaen dau flwch plastig glas mewn pentwr a gerllaw potel gwrw werdd. Yn portreadu cymeriad sy'n dynwared Elvis Presley, mae'r artist Peter Finnemore yn cyrraedd mewn modd comig i'r chwith, gan wisgo dillad cuddliw gwyrdd llawn, sbectol haul a wig Elvis wrth iddo ddechrau dawns sy'n dynwared y canwr. Mae'n defnyddio'r blodyn haul canolog fel microffon ffug, gan efelychu ystumiau eiconig Elvis a meimio i'r gân Eve of Destruction, a gyfansoddwyd gan P. F. Sloan ac yntau'n 19 oed ym 1965, ond sydd fwyaf adnabyddus oherwydd fersiwn Barry McGuire. Ysgrifennwyd y gân yn arddull Bob Dylan a denwyd Finnemore gan ansawdd ingol geiriau rhywun yn ei arddegau. Mae'r seremoni roc a rôl yn arwain at ddiweddglo llawn symudiadau wrth i Peter dynnu'r blodyn haul o'i bot a'i guro droeon ar y concrit, gan gicio'r blodyn tuag aton ni a siglo'r coesyn yn ffyrnig o gwmpas ei ben cyn ei falu ar y llawr a'i daflu aton ni yn y diwedd a cherdded i ffwrdd i'r dde. Meddai Finnemore: “Mae'r gwaith hwn yn rhan o'r gyfres Zen Gardener, a archwiliodd breifatrwydd man gardd i gynnal perfformiad, gweithgarwch artistig, darlunio a dychymyg. Mae'n bwysig bod y gyfres hon yn adlewyrchu ei chyfnod hanesyddol drwy'r perfformiadau absẃrd. Gwnaed y gyfres yn ystod yr ail ryfel yn Irac, a gafodd ei gyfiawnhau gan luoedd gwleidyddol ar seiliau ffug.” Dangoswyd Eve of Destruction yn gyntaf yn 2004 fel rhan o'r arddangosfa Zen Gardener yn Oriel Mostyn.
Eve of Destruction is a film by Peter Finnemore, made in 2004, duration 4 minutes and 2 seconds. The film opens to an empty improvised stage in a luscious green garden on a bright autumn afternoon with a large weathered concrete slab set within the grass and a washing line with clothes swinging in the background. In front of the slab is a sunflower in a terracotta pot, with only three drooping leaves below its top flower which faces away from us. Sitting on the slab to the right of the sunflower is a grey and white cat in front of two stacked blue plastic boxes, and next to a green beer bottle. In character as an Elvis Presley Impersonator, artist Peter Finnemore enters comically to the left in full green camouflage, sunglasses and an Elvis wig, beginning an interpretive dance. Using the central sunflower as a mock microphone, replicating the iconic gyrations of Elvis and miming along to the song, Eve of Destruction written by nineteen-year-old P. F. Sloan in 1965, but best-known in Barry McGuire's version. Written in the style of Bob Dylan, Finnemore was attracted to the teenage angst quality of the lyrics. The rock'n'roll ceremony culminates in a crescendo of motion as Peter pulls the sunflower from its pot and repeatedly smashes it on the concrete, kicking the flower towards us and swinging the stem vigorously around his head before smashing it to the ground and finally throwing it at us before walking off to the right. Finnemore said: “This work is part of the Zen Gardener series, which explored the intimacy of a garden space as a site of performance, artistic activity, of drawing and imagination. Importantly these series of works with their absurdist performances reflect their historical moment. Made during the second Iraq war whose justifications were fabricated by political forces.” Eve of Destruction was first shown in 2004 as part of the Zen Gardener exhibition at Oriel Mostyn.

This week on Potluck Saturday, Kev explores the deeper meaning behind some of music's greats! Using Bob Dylan's infamous decision to go electric as a jumping-off point, he examines why growth, reinvention, healing, authenticity, and setting boundaries often come with an unexpected cost: upsetting the people around you. Why the world can love you—right up until you stop being who they emotionally needed you to be. And why constantly managing other people's expectations can become one of the most exhausting jobs you'll ever have. Kev also contrasts Dylan's story with Elvis's, looking at how one man seemed willing to be misunderstood while the other became trapped inside an image he could never escape. Along the way, he unpacks the hidden dangers of people-pleasing, over-performing, and carrying everyone else's emotional needs while slowly losing touch with your own. The conversation expands into where social media has turned many of us into our own public relations teams—branding, filtering, curating, and performing carefully crafted versions of ourselves for approval. Why so many people aren't really living anymore—they're managing perception. Why success, visibility, and admiration don't heal old wounds, but often magnify them. And why burnout happens when your soul and your role stop matching. Plus, a reflection on the fine line between selfishness and self-protection, why loved ones can sometimes resist the version of you that finally becomes free, and how it's possible to become so loved publicly that you quietly disappear privately. Most importantly, Kev explores the idea that the goal isn't perfection. In a world obsessed with flawless images and certainty, real growth comes from embracing contradiction, integrating your flaws, doing the shadow work, and allowing yourself to evolve. Because maybe the real achievement isn't becoming untouchable—it's becoming fully human.

Daniel Lanois built a studio in his basement in Quebec and began producing local acts when a teenager. Through work with Brian Eno, he went on to record U2, Bob Dylan, Arcade Fire, Emmylou Harris and scores of others with a method that's unique, cinematic and utterly extraordinary, a brand of sonic architecture that creates settings to accommodate the songs, often in exotic and stimulating places. And he's made nine albums of his own, the latest the magical instrumental suite ‘Belladonna Nocturne' – “hear this and you may never go home again”. This rich and fascinating conversation includes … … how the place you record affects the way you think ... producing Dylan and Willie Nelson in an abandoned Mexican cinema … why the first record he bought was Wipe Out by the Surfaris … the process of “printing sound” and his Music Minus One theory … “Songs are doorways to another dimension” … Eno's working method: “he walked round the studio for 45 minutes ringing bells to map out the length of the album” … drawing song sketches to stop everyone having to crowd round a laptop … making the Unforgettable Fire with U2, “expanding Slane Castle ‘til there were little critters crawling out of the walls!” … conjuring the tropical heat of Robbie Robertson's Somewhere Down the Crazy River … and what Hells' Angels like to do to his music.

From Oscar Gold to Fiction Filmmaking: Daniel Roher on Tuner How do you follow up winning an Academy Award? If you are Daniel Roher (Navalny), you resist the pressure to stay in your lane, take a leaf out of Bob Dylan's book, and make a massive leap into fiction! This week on The Filmmakers Podcast, Dom Lenoir sits down with Daniel to discuss his debut narrative feature, Tuner. Starring Leo Woodall, Dustin Hoffman, Havana Rose Liu, Lior Raz, and Jean Reno, the film is a brilliant blend of character drama and heist thriller. Daniel pulls no punches in this candid conversation about the realities of the industry. He shares how the Oscar opened doors, but why even at his level, the rejection never stops. He also breaks down the craft behind the film, explaining why he wrote the sound design into the script from day one, what it was like collaborating with master sound designer Johnny Burn, and his baptism of fire directing actors for the very first time.
Getting kissed by Sean Connery, whilst he was James Bond, fanned repeatedly by Bob Dylan when she sang, plucked for a film by Frank Sinatra, bagels and the part of a lifetime from Tom Hanks, gaslit and insulted by Jerry Lewis, adored and showcased by Dean Martin, wildly successful club proprietor with Hugh Hefner, best friends with Connie Stevens, and Diane Ladd, taught a golden secret by Shelley Winters, asked to serenade her hero Judy Garland, and then had the favor returned, making the funny with Renee Taylor, the straight serious with John Houseman, stress understudying Barbara Streisand, mad love for Bette Midler, who almost played her, Tony, Emmy Golden Globe nominee, Lainie Kazan, dancer, singer, actor, spilled all this and so much more! My favorite character in my favorite movie, My Favorite Year, we got the behind-the-scenes fun, Peter O'Toole and his wonderfulness, improvising one of the funniest lines, likewise with My Big Fat Greek Wedding, which she waited a year to hear, then had the time of her life with a cast she's still connected to. What a life Lainie's led! What work she's done! And what a fun, fierce, and fabulous woman she is! Blessed to call her a friend and even more to know she was off to have drinks and dinner with my mother, which she does most nights. I can't wait for her in-process memoir, sure to shock, delight, and thrill. I love Lainie! Who doesn't!

Stay connected with us at americangroundradio.com, on Facebook, and Instagram. You're listening to American Ground Radio with Louis R. Avallone and Stephen Parr. This is the full show for May 22, 2026. We open with the Supreme Court's pending decision on birthright citizenship — one of the most consequential immigration rulings in American history. We break down the actual constitutional debate over the 14th Amendment's phrase subject to the jurisdiction thereof, what the founders who wrote and debated the amendment said it meant at the time, why the logical interpretation is that children of people who entered the country illegally were never intended to receive automatic citizenship, and why President Trump's comment that the court will probably rule against him may be more strategic than frustrated — a piece of reverse psychology designed to force the justices to rule on the law rather than their feelings about Trump. In our Top 3 Things You Need to Know, the Democrat National Committee released its 192-page post-mortem on the 2024 election — complete with a disclaimer that it doesn't necessarily represent the views of the DNC itself. The report blames Kamala Harris for not changing her position on transgender issues, says Democrats didn't run enough negative ads against Trump, and admits the party took Latino voters for granted — but doesn't say a single word about Biden's mental decline or the decision to install Harris as nominee without a single primary vote. Then the DOJ indicted 15 people in Minnesota for $90 million in Medicaid fraud — the largest Medicaid fraud case in Minnesota history and the largest autism fraud case in American history — while Tim Walz was governor. And the Department of Homeland Security announced that more than 3 million illegal aliens have either been deported or voluntarily self-deported since President Trump took office — with self-deportation costing the government over $10,000 less per case than forced removal, and an app available for anyone who wants to take advantage of the $2,600 voluntary departure payment while preserving their right to return legally. We also discuss the broader immigration picture in France, where a major new study shows that roughly one third of France's population is either foreign-born or the child or grandchild of immigrants — and what happens when mass immigration is welcomed without any expectation of cultural assimilation. We connect it directly to the debate happening in America and explain why saying American culture is worth preserving is not racism. It's patriotism. Our American Mamas Teri Netterville and Kimberly Burleson tackle a deeply relatable topic — growing up with spoiled cousins, and the particular heartbreak of watching a child feel less valued than their cousins by the same grandparents. We get into the nine-year-old boy who told his mother through tears that he was really trying to be grateful, the grandmother who took one grandchild on a New York trip and forgot she had other grandchildren, and why the awareness to keep things equitable across cousins is one of the most underappreciated gifts a grandparent can give. We sit down in studio with Dan Clark, regional director for Bill Glass Behind the Walls Ministry — a national and international prison ministry founded by former Cleveland Browns defensive end Bill Glass, a close friend of Billy Graham, who walked onto a prison yard decades ago and never stopped going back. We talk about fatherlessness as the pipeline to incarceration, why people of faith have a measurably lower recidivism rate than those without, what it looks like to go behind the walls of a supermax facility and share the gospel, and why the men on that prison yard self-police themselves on event days because they know the ministry won't come back if something goes wrong. If you want to get involved or volunteer, visit BehindTheWalls.com. Then it's Fake News Friday — real news, fake news, or really fake news — including whether Chevron gas stations in California put up signs blaming Sacramento politicians for high gas prices, a fleet of driverless Waymo vehicles getting stuck doing laps around an Atlanta cul-de-sac, a car dealership in Kansas that can't sell a truck because a robin built a legally protected nest on the tire, a Democrat running for Congress in Texas proposing concentration camps for American Zionists, a Democrat from Pennsylvania proposing mandatory vasectomies after a man's third child, and whether California's Medicaid program reimburses providers for exorcisms. We work through all of it — some will surprise you. And we close with a Memorial Day reflection — because honoring those who gave their lives for this country should not happen once a year. When you truly understand what someone sacrificed to give you something precious, you protect it every day. Bob Dylan, Norman Schwarzkopf, James Garfield, and George Patton each had something to say about that. So do we. May your pursuit of happiness bring you joy.

Episode 390 of RevolutionZ asks would you rather speak to 2,000 people who already agree with you or 2,000 people who might vote for Trump? That choice sounds like a simple preference, but I argue it exposes something deeper: an entire theory of change. If we think a better world is unattainable, it's rational to aim for narrow wins, entertain friendly audiences, and avoid the hard work of persuasion and unity. If we think systemic change is possible, then we have to communicate to grow our numbers, de-atomize our efforts, and build real solidarity across differences.From there, I consider an engine of political paralysis: cynicism. I'm not interested in writing it off as laziness or moral weakness. More often than not, it is neither. Often it's a rational judgment based on different premises than mine and I hope also yours. It believes either (a) better institutions can't even exist, or (b) better institutions might exist but can't be won. Extrapolate from those beliefs and you get resignation. Each kind of doubt requires a different response from someone like me, and both demand more than slogans. We collectively need credible compelling shared vision and credible sompelling shared strategy that can link urgent immediate fights like stopping authoritarian drift and curbing ecological collapse to a longer trajectory of organizing. How do we most effectively convey that?But what happens if we turn this observation on me, you, and Revolution Z? After almost 400 hundred episodes, what's actually working and what's just repetition or literally unheard? That question connects to the media environment we're trapped in, where lies, scams, and algorithmic incentives push communicators toward clickbait and cheap degradation. If we reject that route to communication, what do we emphasize instead? If we don't want to abet a "failure to communicate," if we we don't want to contribute to a "communication breakdown," then to organize, how do we communicate?To close the episode I offer some song lyrics and their approach to communication from John Lennon, Bob Dylan, Carcie Blanton, Joni Mitchell, and Leonard Cohen, as one way to tell the truth without becoming part of the noise.But when talking or writing, not songs but prose, what might work better than famiiar well trod paths? Do you have ideas about that?Support the show
For the 100th episode of their show "How We Heard It," the podcast team is giving you the music artists who give 100 percent. Musicians are like any other group of workers. Some are tireless - endlessly productive, relentlessly creative or both. Others fill the status quo, doing what might be expected, sometimes a little more and sometimes a little less. Still others are just plain lazy, pushing their work off on others, making excuses why they can't do more and invariably disappointing their supporters, time and time again. It's not about talent, it's about effort. This week "How We Heard It" is all about effort. While other artists might knock out a new album every few years, these artists are producing twice that output. Or while other artists are sticking to their established style (same themes, same sound), these super-producers are constantly exploring new ways to express themselves, tweaking and reinventing their art as they go and challenging their followers to keep up. The same goes for live shows: Some artists are constantly on tour, giving their all on stage night after night. Others rarely tour - and when they do, they just phone it in. Not surprisingly, effort and success don't exactly overlap. (Life is never fair, is it?) Some of the most ordinary artists generate the biggest sales, draw the most fans and win the most awards while some extraordinary artists struggle on the edge of obscurity. Yet every now and then, the brightest and hardest working artists will be among the most popular. Where do your favorites rank? "How We Heard It" takes a look at everyone from Bob Dylan and Elton John to Kenny Chesney and Adele to Taylor Swift and King Gizzard & The Lizard Wizard. Their conclusions might surprise you.
The Byrds- Sweetheart of The Rodeo (Columbia) Released August 30, 1968 Sweetheart of the Rodeo is one of The Byrds' boldest and most unexpected artistic turns. After helping define folk-rock and experimenting with psychedelia, the band suddenly moved deep into country, gospel, bluegrass, honky-tonk, and cowboy music. Gram Parsons' arrival was crucial, pushing Roger McGuinn and Chris Hillman toward a sound rooted in American tradition rather than 1968 studio experimentation. The album did not become a major commercial hit, but its influence became enormous. Songs by Bob Dylan, Woody Guthrie, the Louvin Brothers, Merle Haggard, Cindy Walker, and Parsons gave the record authenticity and depth. Nashville session players, especially the pedal steel guitarists, gave the music its pure country identity. Tracks like “You Ain't Goin' Nowhere,” “Hickory Wind,” and “You Don't Miss Your Water” show the band performing with sincerity rather than novelty. It remains timeless and helped shape country-rock and Americana. (S5-EP20)

Richard Young is a photographer who was once known as the “king of the paparazzi”. His portfolio is a who's who of some of the biggest stars in film, music, stage and popular culture from the past fifty years. From gatecrashing Elizabeth Taylor's party for Richard Burton's 50th at the Dorchester to later being invited to photograph her Damehood celebrations. He can count the first photographs of Paul Getty Jr. after his kidnapping as just one of his many scoops. He was born in Hackney to a Jewish family and his father ran a hosiery stall in Berwick Street market for more than sixty years. Richard has dyslexia and after being expelled from school at fourteen, he went to Soho and landed a job in fashionable clothes shop frequented by Leonard Cohen, Bob Dylan, David Hockney and Francis Bacon. A two-year stint in New York followed, working as a studio assistant at Electric Lady Studios, before he returned to London and found himself in a bookshop handed a camera and told to get on with photographing authors. For the past fifty years, he has lived a nocturnal, high octane life of private jets, parties and exclusive events, eventually becoming as much a fixture in the world of celebrity as the people he photographed. Richard lives in London with his wife Susan. His photography gallery is in London and has visitors from around the world. On episode 282, Richard discusses, among other things: Wanting to escape school Learning that trust is currency Crashing Richard Burton's birthday party And how the proceeds from the resulting picture bought him his first house How his journey into photography began with a roll of blank film Adventures in New York and Paris Having a guardian angel Still being sent on jobs at 79 Turning up to Freddie Mercury's party in drag by mistake How he navigated the switch to digital Why he reccommends that young photographers experiment with film Photographing flowers …and the east end of London The importance of saying sorry when necessary His gallery in west London How the business has changed Website | Instagram Become a A Small Voice podcast member here to access exclusive additional subscriber-only content and the full archive of 200+ previous episodes for £5 per month.

"Black leather jacket." Chatter rolls with Claude, David, Torie, and icon James Grady. David did indeed cry at his son's graduation, and Torie lived Book Fair-palooza in Gaithersburg and Oyster Bay. Miami literary legend Mitchell Kaplan of Books & Books joined in to nominate Chantel Acevedo for "The Pitch." Her new book "Cages" is out in June. Crossing Cuba, London, and Miami, it reveals themes of love, exile, and identity. Jim shares back stories about Robert Redford and the incentive to write his latest, "Shadows on Sidewalks." As Bob Dylan said, " sex and politics and murder is the way to go if you want to get people's attention." Grady will get lots of attention with "Shadows," yet another reason The Washington Post compared his writing to George Orwell and Bob Dylan.

Buried on one of Bob Dylan's lesser 80s albums, "Brownsville Girl" is consistently cited as one of his greatest and most ambitious songs. Co-written by playwright/screenwriter/director/actor Sam Shepard, the song originally came to life as "New Danville Girl”. It was recorded, put aside, and then ultimately rewritten and overdubbed before finally seeing the light of day.Laura and Rebecca talk about creative collaboration, the alchemy of the songwriting process, and what we love about "Brownsville Girl"Find the video of this conversation over on YouTubeRead Bill Lattanzi's essay that we're referring to over at the Dylan Review.Find out more about Mason Moreno's research into the Dylan/Shepard Tapes over on the Infinity Goes Up on Trialpodcast.Read Sam Shepard's play True Dylan over on Esquire.Watch Gregory Peck's entire speech introducing Bob Dylan here.If you have a question for us, send us a voice memo to bobdylanhotline@gmail.com.For anything else get in touch at itsdefinitelydylan@gmail.comGet your Definitely Dylan baseball cap here.You can support Definitely Dylan on Patreon or with a one-off donation at buymeacoffee.com/definitelydylan.

On a special edition of the Haaretz Podcast celebrating its 500th episode, host Allison Kaplan Sommer speaks to iconic Israeli musician David Broza – the composer of "Things Will Be Better," one of Israel’s best-known peace anthems – on performing in a time of war, chaos and despair in his country. “There’s no rationale to being Israeli,” Broza, 70, said on the podcast. "My mission is to exist as an artist and to be very much aware of where I come from and not just leave it behind and shy away from it." Broza describes himself as being “sad but hopeful,” adding that he “would have to stop singing if I wasn’t hopeful.” Having lived in Francoist Spain in his youth, he observed that how "in fascist governments, the artists are the first ones to be burnt, banned, thrown out... And yet you can't erase the art. We need strength now. We need songs. We need art." Broza’s music crosses cultures and genres – fusing Spanish guitar with contemporary rock and folk music, and emphasizing themes of peace and social justice. He has collaborated widely with top artists including Paul Simon, Sting, Van Morrison and Bob Dylan – and with Palestinian artists. His belief in art to overcome conflict puts him at odds with advocates of boycotts. "I am so adamantly anti-boycott that you can't even believe it. BDS is such a lie. It's bullshit," he declared on the podcast. "Boycott will put an end to any hope for future collaboration. If we stop talking to each other, if we do not communicate with each other, we will never step over the threshold." At the same time, he added, "I don't disregard what's going on. I don't disregard the ultra right-wing government we have here, or the crazy government in America." But his role, he said, is clear – to play the role of the troubadour and sing “to anyone, settlers or leftists.”See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Creativity through the lens of a musician and songwriter"Being creative is so lucky"Robin Batteau's“Banned in Sparta” is a new collaborative album of songs based on poems by Classical Greek poets and recorded by a number of friends: Tom Paxton, Eric Andersen, Livingston and Kate Taylor, Matt Nakoa, Robin Lane, 2-time Tony winning actor James Naughton and his gifted children Keira and Greg, plus Carolyn Hester. Robin was inspired by an Ancient Greek History class he took when he returned to Harvard during the Pandemic to finish a degree he started in the 1960s. Robin earned the World Record of taking a 50-year break (between 1970 to 2021) to return to Harvard and finish his degree in 2022. “Banned In Sparta” focuses almost entirely on poets from Ancient Greece between 700 and 400 BC. One poet, Gaius Valerius Catullus (84 – 54 BC), as smitten with the ghost of Sappho as Robin or Alcaeus, is from Rome during Julius Caesar's reign, for whom Eric Andersen performs “Cross (of Gold),” an ode to interlaced and conflicted feelings, “Odi et Amo"— I hate and I love.The title “Banned in Sparta” finds its name from Archilochus, the Bob Dylan of the 7th century B.C., a warrior-poet so irreverent he was “Banned in Sparta.” James Naughton sings the song “Archilochus Re-Deemed (I Am a Servant of the Lord God of War).” Kate Taylor performs “Telesilla's On the Wall,” from the female poet Telesilla, who led her fellow women warriors to victory against those same renowned Spartans. “The Greek Lyric poets performed live, and were the stars of their day,” says Robin. “They were singer/songwriters, they played the lyre (hence "Lyric") and danced around the stage like Tom Paxton and Taylor Swift.”Robin, who studied Ancient Greece and Integrative Biology at Harvard, found that most of what was left of the poems were fragments and myth, “So I mosaic-ed songs to reflect their expressions and intentions— who they were, and are to me.” A range of female poets contributed to the lyrical history of Greece including Corrina, whose “In Her Loving Arms” is sung by Carolyn Hester, and Praxilla's “The Most Beautiful Thing in the World,” a hymn to Adonis, sung by Keira Naughton. Sappho's writing inspires “Terra Cotta Heart,” sung by Robin Lane. Livingston Taylor sings “My Sappho, Sweetly Smiling” from the smitten neighbor and rival Alcaeus. The fun and frolicking “Shake your Hair (You Thracian Filly),” sung by Tom Paxton. Pianist and folk singer Matt Nakoa offers a Bruce Hornsby-like treatment for Simonides of Ceos's “Theatre of Memory (Man of Gold).” Sharing Grammy, Emmy, Clio, and Gold Record Awards and an Oscar nomination, Robin's recorded over a dozen albums with Pierce Arrow, David Buskin (Buskin & Batteau), and many others. His jingles feature in long-running, award-sweeping advertising campaigns from "I'm Lovin' It" for McDonalds to “Can't Beat It” for Coca-Cola to "The Heartbeat of America" for Chevrolet. He's played his 1898 Scarampella violin with everyone from Yo-Yo Ma to Benny Goodman to Bruce Springsteen and has had his melodies sung by Whitney Houston, Aretha Franklin, Judy Collins, Paul Newman, and more. His songs have supported charities and causes, including World Hunger Year, Ocean Alliance, Bill Clinton's 1992 presidential campaign, and Paul Newman's Hole in the Wall Gang Camp for kids. The Boston Globe defines his music with David Buskin as "Acoustic Heaven."https://robinbatteau.com/https://www.facebook.com/robin.batteauSend us Fan Mail

Bob Spitz has written major biographies of the Beatles, Led Zeppelin, Bob Dylan, and now the Rolling Stones — but also, somehow, Ronald Reagan and Julia Child. In rock, his credentials were hard won: he started out hustling gigs for an unknown Bruce Springsteen for six years, moved on to handling Elton John's American business, and spent long enough in the world to find himself jamming with Paul McCartney and chatting with Bob Dylan on a stoop in the Village. The Reagan and Julia Child books are harder to explain, and perhaps that's the point—Spitz seems to do his best work when he has no business writing the book at all. Tyler and Bob discuss how the Stones became so great so quickly, what they added to the blues, how their melodies stack up against the Beatles', whether Exile on Main Street deserves its canonical status, which songs are most underrated, what Charlie Watts actually got out of playing in a rock band, the rise and fall of Brian Jones, how the Stones outlasted nearly everyone, the influence of Mick's London School of Economics training, why popular music has lost its cultural influence, what we should still be asking Paul McCartney and Ringo Starr, whether the Beatles' breakup was good for the world, how senile Reagan really was in his second term and whether he was ever truly a communist, how good a cook Julia Child actually was, his next book on Lennon's second act, and much more.

The singer-songwriter Valerie June has a gift for writing contemporary songs that feel timeless and as though they could also have existed at various points across the past century. Her expansive layering of Appalachian folk, Delta blues, gospel, soul, early country, and even spiritual jazz, at once down to earth and dreamy, has drawn appreciation from the likes of Bob Dylan, Norah Jones, and Mavis Staples, and for good reason. In true folk tradition, the Grammy-nominated June views her work in one long, multigenerational continuum of American songwriting and storytelling, both ancient and urgent. Not one to chase hits or rush her process, she revels, instead, in a slow, patient devotion to her craft, as her latest album, Owls, Omens, and Oracles, puts on full display. On this episode of Time Sensitive, June discusses songs as vessels capable of preserving and transporting us to once-in-a-lifetime moments, music-making as a mystical act, and the value of prioritizing gradual progress over instant results. Special thanks to our Season 13 presenting partner, L'ÉCOLE, School of Jewelry Arts.

Before marine mammal song CDs conquered mall kiosks and the slogan “Save the Whales” appeared on bumper stickers nationwide, one scientist became obsessed with the idea that dolphins might be our closest nonhuman intellectual peers. In part one of our two-part Evil Neuroscience series, Jack dives into the life and work of John C. Lilly: neurophysiologist, dolphin researcher, SETI-adjacent dreamer, and the man whose attempts to bridge the interspecies communication gap proved to be more horrifying than illuminating. We follow Lilly from Biblical ideas about language and human supremacy to the Green Bank conference, where astronomers, NASA advisors, and future SETI legends formed the secretive “Order of the Dolphin.” Then we head to Marineland and Dolphin Rock, where Lilly's research involved whale brains, suffocating dolphins, dolphin vocalization experiments, LSD, Margaret Howe's infamous live-in language study with Peter the dolphin, and the tragic collapse of the project. Along the way: Bob Dylan's worst song, existential elk, horny dolphins, Cold War science funding, animal language research, and the birth of the New Age dolphin obsession. Next time, Jack unpacks how Lilly's search for nonhuman intelligence turned inward through isolation tanks, psychedelics, MKULTRA-adjacent research, and the Earth Coincidence Control Office.
