This is the final episode of Celtic Christmas Music for the year. One last gathering of songs, stories, and voices that remind us why this music matters… and why it's worth holding onto. Irish Christmas in America, The Shamrocks, Abbots Cross, Ashley Davis, The Irish Rovers, Jim O'Connor, Marc Gunn, Rathkeltair, Reilly, Celtic Women, Sean Griffin, Kathleen MacInnes, Ritchie Remo, The Fire, The Gothard Sisters, Jesse Ferguson It's Celtic Christmas Music #90 0:13 - Irish Christmas in America "Planxty James Connolly" from A Long Way From Home 3:21 - WELCOME TO CELTIC CHRISTMAS MUSIC I am Marc Gunn. I am Celtic musician and podcaster. We are promoting Celtic culture through Christmas cheer. We want to bring a little magic and joy into your holiday season. If you hear music you love, please support the artists. You can find a link to all of the artists in the shownotes as well as how to support this podcast at CelticChristmasPodcast.com 3:57 - The Shamrocks "Christmas in Belfast" from Single 7:13 - Abbots Cross "South Winds / Silver and Gold" from Christmas Visions 9:24 - Ashley Davis "Sailing Back to You" from Songs of the Celtic Winter II 13:58 - The Irish Rovers "Christ The King" from Merry Merry Time Of Year 18:13 - STORY BY JIM O'CONNOR 18:51 - Jim O'Connor of Boston Blackthorrne "Christmas in Pittsburgh 1943" from Live Single also on A Celtic Christmas compilation 27:07 - SUPPORT INDEPENENT MUSICIANS Before we dive back into the music, I want to take a moment to talk to you. If you love this music, if it makes your heart lift, please remember that it exists because real people make it. Bands. Songwriters. Musicians who pour years of their lives into learning their craft, writing songs, rehearsing, touring, recording, and sharing something meaningful with the world. Most of the Celtic musicians you hear on this podcast aren't getting rich. Not even close. Streaming pays pennies. Radio exposure doesn't pay the rent. For many artists, the only reason they can keep making and releasing music is because listeners like you choose to support them directly. That support matters more than you might realize. Buy an album. Grab a pin or a shirt. Back a Kickstarter. Become a patron. Show up to a show. Even shar ea song with a friend. Those small acts of generosity add up. They are often the difference between an artist making another album… or quietly fading away. So if there's a band you love on this podcast, support them. If there's a song that moved you, support the people who made it. Supporting small and indie music isn't charity, it's how this music survives, grows, and keeps finding its way into our lives. Thank you for being part of that. Now… let's get back to the music. 28:56 - Marc Gunn "Let's Have a Celtic Christmas" from Celtic Christmas Greetings 31:04 - Rathkeltair "In The Bleak Mid Winter" from Something Good for Christmas 34:07 - Reilly "Bells Over Boston" from Kick Ass Celtic Christmas 38:22 - Celtic Women, Sean Griffin "God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen" from Nollaig – A Christmas Journey 40:46 - THANK YOU FOR SPREADING CHRISTMAS CHEER!

Static-X is not only of of the most iconic Nu Metal bands of all time, but they're one of my favorite heavy bands of all time. Their debut Wisconsin Death Trip is now regarded as a stone cold classic of Nu Metal and an album ahead of its time. Today, Static-X bassist Tony Campos sat down with me on Psychic Warfare to speak on some of the memories of the making and touring of that album that make him smile, whether the hand of fate guided Static-X's career trajectory, and the lost art of just following your feet. Static-X's release of Wisconsin Death Trip - 25th Anniversary Corrosive Edition is out now wherever you stream music Psychic Warfare is now a part of the NOIZZE Podcast Network Subscribe to the podcast on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, or your other platform of choice Be sure to follow both Psychic Warfare and NOIZZE at: Instagram: @noizzepodcastnetwork @noizzeuk @psychicwarfarepodcast Twitter: @psywarpod @noizzeuk Facebook: @psychicwarfarepodcast @noizzeuk Bluesky: @noizzeuk

"Here's the story of a lovely couple Who are in a cool band they call doubleVee Allan & Barb Vest went on a podcast To discuss bands that are family. Here's the story of a groovy podcast, Hosted by two guys named Uncle Gregg and Brett They were diving deep through all the records Mostly classic alternative Til the one day when the Lads met the Vests And they knew it was much more than a fad That this group must somehow form a top five list That's the way we do it on Only Three Lads Only Three Lads Only Three Lads That's the way we do it on Only Three Lads!" That's right - the focus of this week's episode is on bands containing siblings, married couples, cousins, etc.  Coincidentally - actually, it's totally NOT a coincidence - our Third Lads today are the Oklahoma-based married couple, Allan & Barb Vest, who make up the band doubleVee.  Allan was previously primary songwriter, vocalist and multi-instrumentalist for one of the best left-of-center indie pop bands of the early 2000s, Starlight Mints, who released four albums during the first decade of the new millennium.   Barb's history notably includes writing, hosting and producing the nationally syndicated film soundtrack radio programFilmscapes, as well as editing a music webzine and performing with various bands.  Together as doubleVee, Allan & Barb have crafted some astounding and wildly inventive music - the highly recommended debut concept album The Moonlit Fables of Jack the Rider in 2017, the 2019 EP, the 2022 record Treat Her Strangely (containing "Your Love Is It Real?" as heard on the hit Netflix series Wednesday), and now the newly released EP Periscope At Midnight.  The music of doubleVee is a wonderful and beguiling thing - comfortingly poppy but with plenty of strange twists, turns and detours along the way.  Cinematic music with a keen and often whimsical eye for storytelling, doubleVee's songs are beautiful and orchestral, but leaves you with the unsettling feeling that something grotesque may be bubbling underneath the surface.  Thanks to Howard Wuelfing for the introduction and coordination!

Im dritten Teil unserer Dezemberfolge stellen wir zwei sehr unterschiedliche Alben vor. Linus erinnert an einen absoluten Weihnachtsklassiker, der in diesem Monat genau 60 Jahre alt wird. Wir wollen ja nicht zu viel verraten, aber es geht um den Soundtrack des ersten TV-Specials einer Comic-Serie um eine Gruppe von Kindern, die Linus' Leben nachhaltig beeinflusst hat. Torsten widmet sich einem der wohl umtriebigsten und vielseitigsten Schlagzeuger der Musikgeschichte, der sich Ende der 70er nach zehn Jahren als Mitglied verschiedener Bands seinen Traum vom eigenen Projekt erfüllt hat. Dabei ist eines ebenso sicher wie selbstverständlich: Es wird frickelig! Lob, Kritik und Anregungen könnt ihr wie immer hier loswerden: listen@ribzap.de Viel Spaß beim Hören!

The turn of the century was a significant period for the nu metal scene, with the genre building off the back of a string of breakout bands from the mid to late 90s onwards that saw the rap/metal hybrid style of music surge in popularity. Bands such as Korn, Limp Bizkit, System Of A Down and Linkin Park dominated headlines, but there was also an ever-growing list that included Sevendust, P.O.D, Drowning Pool and more that played just as big a role in the development of the genre.Two of those bands were hed (pe) and Nonpoint, both of whom released memorable albums in the height of nu metal's expansion. For hed (pe) it was their second album, Broke, and for Nonpoint it was their debut, Statement. Both albums elevated the respective bands' career trajectories, and that success led to numerous tours involving hed (pe) and Nonpoint that forged an unbreakable bond between the two bands that continues to this day.Both of those albums turned 25 this year, with both remaining as poignant and relevant today as they did upon release. So much so that both bands are uniting once more for a road trip from Hell, with Australia firmly in their sights early next year. Known for their legendary live performances and explosive tracks such as Bullet with a Name, What a Day, Ruthless, and more, Nonpoint has consistently captivated audiences with infectious riffs, compelling lyrics, and an uncompromising raw energy. Their discography and stagecraft have made them staples at rock radio and fixtures on festival line ups, earning them a dedicated international following.And now they have one more reason to celebrate, one more reason to tear up the stage, and one more reason to deliver Australian audiences a full-blown sonic assault rarely seen or heard on these shores.With anticipation for the February tour intensifying by the day, HEAVY accepted the offer to spend some time with Nonpoint frontman Elias Soriano to delve into the history of Nonpoint and what we can expect from their impending visit. One of the topics of discussion was the pairing of hed (pe) and Nonpoint on the same line-up and the sense of impending doom that has developed because of it."Yeah, those guys put on a great show," he smiled. "We're glad to team up with them again. The last run was really, really fun, so we're definitely going to be enjoying some good times on this one."The two bands have been touring and playing together since the turn of the century, and we asked Elias what his memories were of those early days and if the mentality of the earlier nu metal bands was more of an us-against-them feeling."At that time, everything was really moving in a big way," he recalled. "There were a lot of bands touring at that time. The big festivals and the touring festivals were really popular, especially with OzFest and Warped Tour and festivals like that. So being a part of that and being a part of the meld of hip-hop and rock that was happening at our time, that was an interesting culture that a different type of fan gravitated towards. So it's good to tour with bands like that, that share those types of fans and share that type of show."In the full interview, Elias talks more about the upcoming tour and what to expect, Nonpoint's first visit to Australia as part of Soundwave in 2010, the early days of nu metal and what it was like playing what was essentially a new cross-pollination of music to a non-existent fan base.He recalled his first reactions to hed (pe)'s album Broke and outlined similarities between that record and Nonpoint's release in the same year, Statement. Talk diverted to the early days of Nonpoint and the musical climate that gave birth to the band, the birth and sustainability of nu metal, new music and more.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/heavy-music-interviews--2687660/support.

Het panel van de AD Media Podcast heeft dit jaar vijf programma’s genomineerd: Expeditie Robinson, Dit was het nieuws, The Tribute: Battle of the Bands, Only Joling en Ik Vertrek.

De AD Media Podcast, die bestaat uit Angela de Jong, Gudo Tienhooven, Mark de Blanken, Dennis Jansen en presentator Manuel Venderbos, riep de prijs in 2021 in het leven toen ze erachter kwamen dat Even tot hier nog nooit een prijs had gewonnen. Saillant: na het uitreiken van de AD Mediaprijs voor het programma dat onterecht nog nooit een prijs heeft gewonnen prijs aan het duo Woe en Van der Laan wonnen zij prompt de Gouden Televisie-Ring (2022), de Ere Zilveren Nipkowschijf (2023) en vorige week de award die hoort bij de Mediapersonen van het jaar (2025). Na Even Tot Hier veroverden Oogappels (2022), De avondshow met Arjen Lubach (2023) en De slimste mens (2024) de AD Mediaprijs. Het panel riep voor dit jaar nog twee andere prijzen in het leven. Voor de AD Mediaprijs voor de Eeuwige Tweede nomineerde het vijftal Anita Witzier, Expeditie Robinson en Tijs van den Brink. Voor de AD Media Prijs in de categorie 'Had ik dit nou wel moeten doen' zijn achtereenvolgens genomineerd: Malou Petter (haar overstap van NOS naar Talpa), Art Rooijakkers (zijn overstap van RTL naar SBS), Peter van der Vorst (voor het inruilen van de talkshowtafel voor RTL Tonight), Albert Verlinde (voor zijn overstap van VI naar RTL Tonight), Manuel Venderbos (voor zijn deelname aan Let's Play Ball), Arjen Lubach (voor zijn overstap van de NPO naar RTL), Denise uit de Hanslers (voor het daten met Mike Hansler) en Angela de Jong (voor haar overstap van een mediacolumn naar een algemene column). De prijzen worden volgende week in de laatste AD Media Podcast van het jaar bekendgemaakt. Dan komen ook de televisiehoogte- en dieptepunten van het afgelopen jaar voorbij van de panelleden. Onderwerpen in deze voorlaatste editie zijn de stijgingen van Marco Borsato in de Top 2000, het debuut van Leonie ter Braak in RTL Tonight, de seizoensafsluiter van Even Tot Hier en de bedreiging van Lale Gül. ‘Je gaat bijna denken dat Lale gul het voor de aandacht doet!’ Luisteren dus!

Vielleicht habt ihr euch schon mal gefragt, warum so viele Bands aus Portland in Österreich auf Tour sind. Das hat einen guten Grund und exakt diesen haben wir diesmal in unseren Podcast geladen. Dominik Schmidt, CEO von [Rola Music](http://rolamusic.com), ist seit 2013 in der Hauptstadt des US-Bundesstaats Oregon beheimatet. Er wählt aus dutzenden, wenn nicht hunderten Bands aus. Und bringt die interessantesten davon nach Europa. Im Interview erzählt Dominik, wie es so ist, in einer der liberalsten Städte der USA zu leben. Und warum es gerade recht ruhig geworden ist in der Auseinandersetzung zwischen Portland und Donald Trump. Außerdem reden wir über Drogenprobleme, Obdachlosigkeit, aber auch über erfreulichere Dinge.

On this episode: newly released Jeffrey Epstein photos drop — and they're explosive. The images show Epstein alongside Prince Andrew, Steve Bannon, Woody Allen, Bill Gates, former President Clinton, and former President Trump. We break down what the photos depict, where they came from, how they fit into the broader timeline of Epstein's social circle, and what investigators and public officials are saying as the images circulate.Next: the feud intensifies as Candace Owens takes fresh aim at Erika Kirk, escalating a conflict already rippling through conservative media. We unpack what triggered the latest blow, how it's being received online, and why this particular clash is getting so much traction.Then we shift gears to music and count down the best touring bands of the new millennium — the groups that have defined live performance since 2001, shifted culture, sold out arenas, and built the strongest fanbases of the century so far.And finally, it's AOA Game Time — where things inevitably get loud, dumb, competitive, and extremely on brand.#EpsteinPhotos #CandaceOwens #TouringBandsAOA LINKS BLOCKGet more AoA and become a member to get exclusive access to perks:https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCOfx0OFE-uMTmJXGPpP7elQ/joinGet Erin C's book here: https://amzn.to/3ITDoO7Get Merch here - https://bit.ly/AnthonyMerchSubscribe to the Anthony On Air Podcast here:Facebook - https://bit.ly/AntOnAirFBYouTube - https://bit.ly/AntOnAirYTApple Podcast - https://bit.ly/AntOnAirAppleSpotify - https://bit.ly/AntOnAirSpotTwitter - https://bit.ly/AntOnAirTwitterInstagram - https://bit.ly/AntOnAirInstaTikTok - https://www.tiktok.com/@anthonyonairpodDiscord - https://discord.gg/78V469aV22Get more at https://www.AnthonyOnAir.com.

Solar and wind are now the cheapest power sources in history. But too many politicians would rather protect billionaires than help working families save on their bills. Real change starts when we stop allowing the ultra - rich to write our energy policy and run our government. Let's choose affordable, renewable power.

“What's the one song that guarantees a bar fight—or at least a round of shots?” That's the question Ben Rogers, Jeff “Skin” Wade, Kevin “KT” Turner, and Krystina Ray tackle in this hilarious and surprising episode of The Ben and Skin Show.The crew dives into the Top 10 most-played bands on TouchTunes jukeboxes in bars across America, and the results will blow your mind. From ACDC at #1 (because nothing says pool and darts like “Back in Black”) to the shocking resurgence of Creed (“The Cowboys should book them for halftime again!”), this countdown is packed with nostalgia, laughs, and plenty of hot takes.You'll hear the gang debate why Nickelback secretly slaps when you're three beers deep, why Fleetwood Mac is the soundtrack for 2 a.m. stragglers, and how Lynyrd Skynyrd's “That Smell” might just be the anthem for bar brawls.

I’m back for a special end-of-the-year episode! Watch/listen for a handful of memorable highlights from 2025, including two especially wonderful musical performances. As I explain early in this episode, this is in no way meant to be considered a “best of.” With over 80 episodes recorded this year, it would be impossible to pull something like that together (and incredibly unfair to my guests). Consider this an “amuse-bouche” for the podcast; a hint of what made it so much fun to host this year and a promise of more to come in 2026. Thank you to all my guests (who are each individually named in this episode), and to you for supporting the podcast. I appreciate you. -James Car Con Carne is nominated for “Best Music Podcast” in the Chicago Reader’s “Best of Chicago” survey (https://chicagoreader.com/best-of-chicago-music-nightlife-2025/).

This month we travel back to a banger of a year for our favourite songs of 1992, including proto-post rock, hiphop classics, industrial metal, and enough shoegaze to open a branch of Specsavers opposite a branch of Foot Locker.We've each chosen our 10 favourite songs of the year and sent them over to Colin's wife Helen, who put the playlists together and distributed them so we were each given a playlist of the 20 songs from the other two hosts, along with our own 10. We then ranked the playlists in order of preference and sent them back to Helen, who totalled up the points and worked out the order.She also joined us on the episode to read out the countdown, which we found out as we recorded so all reactions are genuine.Now, admittedly, in parts we're a little bit brutal to some of the songs in the list as we're three separate people with differing music tastes, but please remember that to be in this episode at all the songs have to have been in one of our top 10's of that year.Bands featured in this episode include (In alphabetical order, no spoilers here!) -Alice In Chains, Tori Amos, Biohazard, Buffalo Tom, The Cure, Del Amitri, Drop Nineteens, The God Machine, Juliana Hatfield, Helmet, House Of Pain, Ice Cube, The Lemonheads, Manic Street Preachers, Medicine, Ministry, Moonshake, Nine Inch Nails, Pavement, PJ Harvey, The Prodigy, Rage Against The Machine, Red House Painters, Shakespeare's Sister, The Shamen, Sleep, The Smashing Pumkins, Sugar, Therapy?, & White Zombie. Find all songs in alphabetical order here - https://open.spotify.com/playlist/7qatUOOdtpkgwU5wy2VXkr?si=204796b95ca44533Find our We Dig Music Pollwinners Party playlist (featuring all of the winning songs up until now) here - https://open.spotify.com/playlist/45zfDHo8zm6VqrvoEQSt3z?si=Ivt0oMj6SmitimvumYfFrQIf you want to listen to megalength playlists of all the songs we've individually picked since we started doing best of the year episodes (which need updating but I plan on doing them over the next few months or so), you can listen to Colin's here – https://open.spotify.com/playlist/5x3Vy5Jry2IxG9JNOtabRT?si=HhcVKRCtRhWCK1KucyrDdgIan's here - https://open.spotify.com/playlist/2H0hnxe6WX50QNQdlfRH5T?si=XmEjnRqISNqDwi30p1uLqAand Tracey's here - https://open.spotify.com/playlist/2p3K0n8dKhjHb2nKBSYnKi?si=7a-cyDvSSuugdV1m5md9NwThe playlist of 20 songs from the other two hosts was scored as usual, our favourite song got 20 points, counting down incrementally to our least favourite which got 1 point. The scoring of our own list of 10 is now slightly more complicated in order to give a truer level of points to our own favourites. So rather than them only being able to score as many points as our 10th favourite in the other list, the points in our own list were distributed as follows -1st place - 20 points2nd place - 18 points3rd place – 16 points4th place – 14 points5th place – 12 points6th place – 9 points7th place – 7 points8th place – 5 points9th place – 3 points10th place -1 pointHosts - Ian Clarke, Colin Jackson-Brown & Tracey BGuest starring Helen Jackson-Brown.Playlist compiling/distributing – Helen Jackson-BrownRecorded/Edited/Mixed/Original Music by Colin Jackson-Brown for We Dig PodcastsThanks to Peter Latimer for help with the scoring system.Part of the We Dig Podcasts network along with Free With This Months Issue & Pick A Disc.Bluesky - https://bsky.app/profile/wedigmusic.bsky.socialInstagram - https://www.instagram.com/wedigmusicpcast/Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/wedigpusicpcast/Find our other episodes & podcasts at www.wedigpodcasts.com

A live-sung medley that actually left us breathless. That's how Lainey Wilson opened a CMA night that felt tighter, braver, and more fun than it's been in years—and yes, she backed it up with Entertainer of the Year, Album of the Year, and Female Vocalist. We talk about why her solo hosting worked, how she commanded the stage with eight outfit changes, and what her wins say about where country music is heading.We dig into performances that sparked debate, especially Chris Stapleton solo versus his duet with Miranda Lambert—great song, flawless execution, but does it fit either brand? The Red Clay Strays brought harmonies that surprised us with an Arctic Monkeys vibe, raising a bigger question about identity: when southern bands don't claim “country,” yet chart on country formats, is that healthy expansion or a nudge to fit the market? Along the way, we celebrate pros who hold the scene together—Paul Franklin's Musician of the Year nod and a heartfelt tribute to Vince Gill's mentorship and humility.Then we zoom out. Are labels signing too many TikTok artists who can't deliver live? How much do charts really matter now—less for artists, more for songwriters? We compare A-players in the studio to road bands on tour, why some artists are skipping the “Nashville session” model, and how remote recording and AI risk eroding that full-room magic where eight players breathe together. You'll also hear a lively news round-up, a chart countdown, candid listener mailbag on genre blending and economics, and a hilarious community game: ruin a band name by changing one letter.

As I continue to recover from a variety of appendix-related issues, I’m turning to capable and talented guest hosts to keep Car Con Carne running. This episode offers something a little bit different: It features the podcast-hosting debut of my daughter, Fiona VanOsdol. Joining her are her friends Faith Ferry and Fionn Riley, co-hosts of her college radio show called “The F Word” (their names all start with “F,” and they talk about topics that start with “F”). Their topic for this episode is “food,” which pretty much drives home the fact that Fiona’s my daughter. Among the food-related topics discussed: * Dining hall food, and its potential health risks.* Thanksgiving foods - tater tots on green bean casserole is a thing?* Fiona’s second attempt at constructing a Jell-O dessert.* Favorite restaurants - let’s have more buffets (or not)! Also, what’s the best thing to order from Panda Express? Chili’s?* Fiona shares a dark sandwich moment from our shared history (she calls it “James lore”). Thanks for supporting Car Con Carne, especially during this weird period where I’m off the grid. Thank you for listening and watching - I had an especially fun time handing the show over to Fiona. ## Car Con Carne is sponsored by Easy Automation: If you’re looking to transform your home, office, or business into a smart, seamlessly connected space, Easy Automation delivers custom automation solutions that are tailored to your lifestyle.

The Battle of Agincourt, fought in 1415, is famous for the decisive role of the English and Welsh longbowmen, who—despite being significantly outnumbered and exhausted—decimated the heavily armored French nobility with volleys of arrows. This unlikely victory was profoundly important because it not only paved the way for King Henry V to be named heir to the French throne via the Treaty of Troyes, but it also demonstrated the waning dominance of the medieval knight in warfare.Today’s guest is Michael Livingston, author of “Agincourt: Battle of the Scarred King.” We go back to the original sources, including the French battle plan that still survives today, to give a new interpretation, one that challenges the traditional site of the battlefield itself. The English victory at Agincourt on October 25, 1415, was a result of strategic brilliance, terrain advantage, and the devastating effectiveness of the longbow, combined with French tactical errors. Henry V’s smaller army, roughly 6,000-9,000 men (mostly longbowmen), faced a French force of 12,000-36,000, including heavily armored knights.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
