Children's Stories with Ms. Rebecca: Ballads by First Presbyterian Church San Antonio

** PLEASE SUBSCRIBE ** Featured in WYGYFF (Episode 29): This is the fifth Jam Fans Forum episode in which expert panelists provide their top picks in various funk music categories. This time around, we are taking on the typically sexy and romantic topic of the 5 Greatest Funk Ballads of All Time.  DR GX's Funk Ballad Definition: Produced by funk, funky or funk-capable artists, these songs are downtempo and often sensual, deeply soulful with emotive lead vocals while maintaining funk groove musical elements. Examples of that are prominent bass or plucking, pronounced drums, guitar solos, arresting background vocals and harmonies, unconventional and creative soundscapes, and extended running times. These songs are generally not overly sentimental, sappy, poppy or cliched in lyrics, feel or sound, and frequently are more rhythmic than melodic – yet they still touch the soul and stick in the mind of listeners. These songs are typically ideal for very intimate, body-on-body slow dancing – or in house party vernacular, grinding. That said, thematically this style can diverge from interpersonal intimacy into most any subject matter.   Joining in are three esteemed Jam Fans: media professional, singer/songwriter and avid music buff Juliana Jai-Bolden; music & culture journalist and liner notes master A. Scott Galloway; and music scholar, author and History of Funk radio show host Rickey Vincent. Thanks to all of them for keeping the funk alive!  Panelists' Picks Ground Rules: - Picks are not shared ahead of time, so everyone experiences the reveals together. - Panelists compile alternates in case someone else names the same pick first. That works out to a total of 20 picks! - Picks may be shared in random, unranked or in non-chronological order.  - Picks may be based more on personal preference than historical context. Go to https://funknstuff.net/jam-fans-forum-20-funk-ballads OR https://wp.me/p77e8T-3GU to listen to and buy this episode's 20 all-time great debut funk ballads.  Be sure to like, comment, share and subscribe – and let us know other categories you would like to see covered.

In honor of Labor Day I've collected some rare and some better-known songs about the labor struggle. Today many of us take for granted the great strides made by the labor movement to give us so many of the benefits we take for granted.

In this episode-with-a-twist, Neil, Kurt, Tully and KLo sit down with 20-year-old podcaster Christian Hodges for a raw, unfiltered conversation that goes far beyond the headlines.The conversation takes unexpected turns as they explore how country music has captured the hearts of younger generations, with 50% of young people now gravitating toward the genre. "With a country artist, they buy into the person, the personal brand," one songwriter explains, highlighting how authenticity creates lasting careers that pop music often can't sustain.Perhaps most compelling is their candid discussion about artificial intelligence's looming shadow over their craft. "When I heard a song come out of that machine with a demo behind it, it blew my mind because it had emotion," Kurt admits, revealing genuine fear about AI's ability to replicate the human element of songwriting. This leads to a passionate debate about creativity, technology, and the future of their livelihood.The episode culminates with deeply personal reflections on faith, family, and what they believe the next generation should never abandon. Christian shares his miraculous survival story—emerging from a six-day coma with viral encephalitis that carries a 10% survival rate—which resonates profoundly with the songwriters' own perspectives on prayer and purpose.Whether you're fascinated by the creative process behind hit songs, concerned about technology's impact on art, or simply curious about the values that shape country music, this conversation offers rare insight into the minds behind the music that defines modern America.

You would be forgiven for thinking the focus of this episode was ending music, which makes sense considering ballads are often used for ending tracks.  Ballads traditionally tell a story or narrative, and while these tracks are purely instrumental, they still convey a lot through emotion.  Whether it's an ending track to reflect upon your completed adventure, a specific character's

It's a nice and simple, back to basics episode this week. We can all relax knowing that at no point will Paul & Eli be singing or inventing new characters or retreating into waves of personal verbal abuse. No siree Bob! They are searching for proper culture for this episode. Paul's found a book to discuss and dissect for his “Page Turners” segment. He's found a book called “Read Me Out Loud” which contains a poem for every day of the year, and he decides to pick out a few choice dates to see if there is anything inspiring for Eli to ultimately crap on. To wrap up the show, there is a new “Gannon's Golden Game” to enjoy called “Bargain Hunter”. It's from MB Games and challenges the Cheap Chaps to put their money where their mouths are. Can they complete their shopping list without overspending? Does this segment ever go well? Exactly… So enjoy!

Narcocorridos are narrative songs that paint vivid pictures of drug trafficking, organized crime, and the lives of real or fictional figures in the narcotics world. In this episode, we discuss where this genre fits within regional Mexican music, the ethical concerns it raises, and how it reflects deeper social realities in Mexico. We also take a look at the history of narcocorridos, some of the most iconic songs, and how this music intersects with power, reputation, and even violence.Key Takeaways:Narcocorridos are not just music—they're cultural expressions shaped by Mexico's social and political history.These songs walk a fine line between storytelling and glorifying criminal lifestyles.From “Camelia la Tejana” to “Jefe de Jefes,” narcocorridos remain a powerful (and polarizing) part of Mexican musical identity.Relevant Links And Additional Resources:060 – El Santo De Los Narcos | The Saint Of Narcos218 – La Música De Banda – El Sonido De Sinaloa | Banda Music – The Sound Of SinaloaLevel up your Spanish with our Podcast MembershipGet the full transcript of each episode so you don't miss a wordListen to an extended breakdown section in English going over the most important words and phrasesTest your comprehension with a multiple choice quizIf you enjoy Learn Spanish and Go, please consider subscribing, rating, and reviewing our podcast on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Google Podcasts, or Pandora.

Send us a textJoin Cheryl Lee - That Radio Chick on STILL ROCKIN' IT for news, reviews, music and interviews with some of our favourite Australian musicianWhen a band has been creating music together for nearly three decades, something magical happens. The creative chemistry becomes almost telepathic, transforming into what SuperJesus bassist Stu Rudd describes as "the DNA of both of us being in this band."In this revealing conversation, Ruddy takes us behind the scenes of the recently released self-titled SuperJesus album and their extensive Australian and New Zealand tour, currently riding high on sold-out shows and enthusiastic fan response, the band demonstrates that their creative fire burns as brightly as ever. The album represents a new pinnacle in the songwriting partnership between Stu and frontwoman Sarah McLeod, who have developed an intuitive musical connection that transcends words. "There were times when we would look at each other and we wouldn't talk, but we knew that we had to put a new chord in there," he explains, offering rare insight into their creative process.The journey from their early days to becoming ARIA Award winners with platinum albums wasn't without challenges. With refreshing honesty, Rudd recalls the grueling work behind their "overnight" success – including rehearsing daily for 18 straight months. He reflects on how the band was often too busy with the practicalities of touring to fully appreciate their achievements at the time: "You guys are going platinum. Okay, yeah, well, we need petrol for the van because we're driving another 1,400 kilometres." Now, with the perspective of time, he can look back with well-earned pride at what they've built together. Between insights about the band, Stu also shares details about his work with supergroup The Filthy Animals and answers rapid-fire questions about his musical influences, favorite performances, and songs he wishes more people knew.Whether you're a long-time fan or discovering The SuperJesus for the first time, this conversation offers a fascinating window into the mindset of musicians who continue to create vital, powerful music decades into their career. Catch The SuperJesus on their current tour – tickets and dates available at superjesus.com.What has Ruddy been up to lately?  Let's find out!Get out when you can, support local music and I'll see you down the front!!Visit: ThatRadioChick.com.au

What were the top musical hits of Shakespeare's England? What lyrics were stuck in people's heads? What stories did they sing on repeat? The 100 Ballads project is a deep dive into the hits of early modern England—a kind of 17th-century Billboard Hot 100. Drawing from thousands of surviving printed ballads, researchers Angela McShane and Christopher Marsh have ranked the most popular songs of the period. These broadsides—cheaply printed sheets sold for a penny—offer surprising insight into the period's interests, humor, and even news headlines. McShane and Marsh discuss what these ballads tell us about moral norms, sensationalism, and everyday life. Some are instructive, some are bawdy, and some are unexpectedly feminist. This episode brings to life the soundscape of Shakespeare's world with clips from newly recorded versions of the most popular ballads and a look at how the team developed their ranking system. >> Explore the project and hear the songs yourself at www.100ballads.org Christopher Marsh is Professor of Cultural History at Queen's University, Belfast.

Does today's poem contain the secret to minimizing regret in 2025? Kinda, sorta. Happy reading.In his youth, Robert Service worked in a shipping office and a bank, and briefly studied literature at the University of Glasgow. Inspired by Rudyard Kipling and Robert Louis Stevenson, Service sailed to western Canada in 1894 to become a cowboy in the Yukon Wilderness. He worked on a ranch and as a bank teller in Vancouver Island six years after the Gold Rush, gleaning material that would inform his poetry for years to come and earn him his reputation as “Bard of the Yukon.” Service traveled widely throughout his life—to Hollywood, Cuba, Alberta, Paris, Louisiana, and elsewhere—and his travels continued to fuel his writing.A prolific writer and poet, Service published numerous collections of poetry during his lifetime, including Songs of a Sourdough or Spell of the Yukon and Other Verses (1907), which went into ten printings its first year, Ballad of a Cheechako (1909) and Ballads of a Bohemian (1921), as well as two autobiographies and six novels. Several of his novels were made into films, and he also appeared as an actor in The Spoilers, a 1942 film with Marlene Dietrich.-bio via Poetry Foundation Get full access to The Daily Poem Podcast at dailypoempod.substack.com/subscribe
