What does this week's episode have in common with Cher, Cyndi Lauper, the Reverend Al Green, French novelist Marcel Proust, and the ever-amazing Sir Huey Lewis? Well, other than all them having a Bacon Number of 2 (the number of steps that it takes to connect all of them to actor Kevin Bacon, per the website the Oracle of Bacon … yeah, real thing that exists) … they all know a quintessential truth about life, the universe and everything - time, and how we use it, is vitally important.   In this week's Overlap Podcast, our boys Sid and Keith take a deep dive into a topic even the great Morris Day could never master - Time Management (save Jerome, of course - Morris and Jerome - BFF OGs). More than any other resource that you and your business have to have, time is finite and has to be treated like the rare and precious commodity it is because none of us have the ability to get it back once it is gone (barring someone owning a DeLorean with a functioning flux capacitor, the Doctor's Tardis, a time turner, a rundown Colorado ski chalet hot tub short-circuited by a bootleg Soviet Bloc energy drink or some other sort of time travel device).   Our boys will take you through the tips, tricks and teachings they've taken in throughout their tour of life - predetermining priorities, getting real with realistic goals, defusing distractions… just to name a few, with their own astute anecdotes and intelligent insights. (Yes, even Keith … we're just as shocked as you are, dear listeners.)   So, after this week's episode, you may not be able to turn back time, but you'll be a damn sight better at making sure that time … is on your side, yes, it is…

It's a weird one but we still like it.FURTHER DORKSCUSSION:(From Wikipedia) In a January 1994 interview, Kevin Bacon mentioned that "he had worked with everybody in Hollywood or someone who's worked with them." Later in 1994, three college students Craig Fass, Brian Turtle and Mike Ginelli - invented the game that became known as "Six Degrees of Kevin Bacon" after seeing two movies on television that featured Bacon back to back, Footloose and The Air Up There. During the latter film they began to speculate on how many movies Bacon had been in and the number of people with whom he had worked.A huge thank you to everyone who sent in a name to play!Making (Kevin) Bacon!BONUS CONTENT:An even huger thank you to Lorna Gilfedder for absolutely beautiful Dork Matters jingle!

Composer Steven Bryant's music for winds has quickly become part of the standard repertoire. As the son of a music educator, he is a strong supporter of music education and he joins me from the mountains of Austria to talk about his early influences, his music, and his career to this point. Topics: Steven’s background as the son of a high school band director and how that influenced his path to becoming a composer. The story of BCM International and Steve’s early success with Chester Leaps In and the stories of Dusk and Ecstatic Waters. The value of being self-published and the nuts and bolts about a career as a successful composer. Writing music for band and electronics. Links: Steven Bryant Mid Europe Band Festival Bryant: Chester Leaps In Bryant: Dusk Bryant: Ecstatic Waters Bryant: Hummingbrrd Bryant: Concerto for Wind Ensemble John Cage: As Slow as Possible Biography: Steven Bryant’s music is chiseled in its structure and intent, fusing lyricism, dissonance, silence, technology, and humor into lean, skillfully-crafted works that enthrall listeners and performers alike. His seminal work Ecstatic Waters, for wind ensemble and electronics, has become one of the most performed works of its kind in the world, receiving over 250 performances in its first five seasons. Recently, the orchestral version was premiered by the Minnesota Orchestra to unanimous, rapturous acclaim. The son of a professional trumpeter and music educator, he strongly values music education, and his creative output includes a number of works for young and developing musicians. John Corigliano states Bryant’s “compositional virtuosity is evident in every bar” of his 34’ Concerto for Wind Ensemble. Bryant’s first orchestral work, Loose Id for Orchestra, hailed by composer Samuel Adler as “orchestrated like a virtuoso,” was premiered by The Juilliard Symphony and is featured on a CD release by the Bowling Green Philharmonia on Albany Records. Alchemy in Silent Spaces, commissioned by James DePreist and The Juilliard School, was premiered by the Juilliard Orchestra in May 2006. The Chicago Symphony Orchestra’s MusicNOW series featured his brass quintet, Loose Id, conducted by Cliff Colnot, on its 2012-13 concert series. Notable upcoming projects include an orchestral work for the Detroit Symphony Orchestra (April, 2018), an evening-length dramatic work for the Pittsburgh New Music Ensemble, a choral work for the BBC Singers (July, 2017), a work for FivE for Euphonium Quartet and wind ensemble (2019), and a large work to celebrate the 150th anniversary of the University of Illinois Bands. Recent works include a Concerto for Alto Saxophone for Joseph Lulloff and the Michigan State University Wind Symphony (winner of the 2014 American Bandmasters Sousa Ostwald Award), and a Concerto for Trombone for Joseph Alessi and the Dallas Wind Symphony. Other commissions have come from the Gaudete Brass Quintet (Chicago), cellist Caroline Stinson (Lark Quartet), pianist Pamela Mia Paul, the Amherst Saxophone Quartet (funded by the American Composers Jerome Composers Commissioning Program), the University of Texas – Austin Wind Ensemble, the US Air Force Band of Mid-America, the Japanese Wind Ensemble Conductors Conference, and the Calgary Stampede Band, as well as many others. Steven studied composition with John Corigliano at The Juilliard School, Cindy McTee at the University of North Texas, and Francis McBeth at Ouachita University, trained for one summer in the mid-1980s as a break-dancer (i.e. was forced into lessons by his mother), was the 1987 radio-controlled car racing Arkansas state champion, has a Bacon Number of 1, and has played saxophone with Branford Marsalis on Sleigh Ride. He resides in Durham, NC with his wife, conductor Verena Mösenbichler-Bryant (Duke University).

In 1971 high school student Juliane Koepcke fell two miles into the Peruvian rain forest when her airliner broke up in a thunderstorm. Miraculously, she survived the fall, but her ordeal was just beginning. In this week's episode of the Futility Closet podcast we'll describe Juliane's arduous trek through the jungle in search of civilization and help. We'll also consider whether goats are unlucky and puzzle over the shape of doorknobs. Intro: Before writing about time machines, H.G. Wells calculated that he'd earned a single pound in his writing endeavors. In 1868, as an engineering trainee, Robert Louis Stevenson explored the foundation of a breakwater at Wick.
