Clutter moves Five Points from Brooklyn to Beacon After Miranda O'Brien and Josh Kimberg moved to Beacon from Brooklyn in 2011, they opened Clutter Gallery at 163 Main St., named for a glossy magazine O'Brien founded in England 21 years ago that ceased publication in 2017. Clutter is the only gallery in the country dedicated to weird and wonderful designer toys for adults, says Kimberg. Earlier this year, the couple moved from their Main Street space, a popular gathering spot on Second Saturdays, to the KuBe Art Center, where they plan to add an art toy museum operated by a newly created nonprofit, the Designer Toy Foundation. At the same time, the couple is transplanting their annual Five Points Festival of "designer toys, indie art, weird monsters and underground culture" - scheduled for June 7 and 8 - from Greenpoint in Brooklyn to The Yard in Beacon. Jesse DeStasio, a Philipstown resident who hosts his own festival, Toy Pizza Expo, which met at the Happy Valley Arcade Bar in Beacon and merged this year with Five Points, will be there with Knights of the Slice, an action-figure line he created in 2015. Ron English of Beacon, a longtime toy designer and muralist under his Popaganda umbrella, created the event poster. "This town takeover goes against the grain," says Kimberg. "We put together a roster of complete weirdos and fans of the bizarre." Five Points, which began in 2017, attracted 6,000 people in Greenpoint last year. The first Beacon event will include live music, painting, tattooing and promised "oddities." The Beacon Theater will show sci-fi flick Dune (1982), the original Godzilla (1954) and Ghidohra (1964), the "three-headed monster." Inspired in part by Japanese manga and anime, collectible designer items range from $20 to hundreds of thousands of dollars, says Kimberg. Made mainly with resin and soft vinyl, the irreverent totems stem from street and underground art. Though some small runs are handcrafted or 3-D printed in people's basements and garages, most items are imported. Small-batch, handmade toys created by popular artists are obviously more cherished than a run of 500 made in China, says Kimberg: "What's most important is the name value, not a brand or even what the figure depicts. It's like Andy Warhol's silkscreens and Toulouse Lautrec with the printing press, creating multiple copies of works with a mechanical means of production and building a reputation." Some artists in the free-for-all subculture create original designs and others reference pop culture, a la Warhol. Homer Simpson is a popular subject, but almost all designer toy representations of familiar figures distort and take liberties with the original form, signifying that the work is unlicensed. "There is a conversation over whether this is fair use, and thus legal," says Kimberg, who once received a cease-and-desist letter but rebutted it with a 20-page reply. "We outlined the work's transformative nature, and they went away," he said.

Jesse Malin is my guest on this episode of That's How I Remember It. A complete legend of NYC rock and roll, Jesse suffered a spinal stroke in 2023 and has been rehabilitating since. His songs are covered in a new tribute album with a star-studded lineup. Many of these artists will be playing the Beacon Theater in December when Malin and his band take the stage for the first time since the stroke. We talked about all of that as well as playing with the Misfits in 1981, seeing the Ramones for the first time, and so much more. Was a thrill to spend this time with Jesse.

Jesse Malin is about as New York as you can get. How New York is he? Well, he's in a Martin Scorsese movie for starters. Jesse got his start in the hardcore band Heart Attack before pivoting to the rough and ready D-Generation in the ‘90s. After that band's demise, Jesse made an even harder pivot when he turned to his acoustic guitar and released the Ryan Adams-produced THE FINE ART OF SELF DESTRUCTION — in effect, reinventing himself as a rock and roll troubadour and NYC ambassador. And then about a year and a half ago, Jesse suffered a rare spinal stroke that threatened his ability to ever walk again. But in true LIFER fashion —and with the help of his community and his friends— Malin has soldiered on and is gearing up for a pair of benefit shows at the Beacon Theater on December 1st and 2nd that will mark his return to the stage. It's a pleasure to have Jesse on the show this week to put some shit into perspective for us and talk about Johnny Thunders, CBGB's, Bruce Springsteen, Ian Hunter, “Bringing Out The Dead”, Green Day, Rickie Lee Jones and a WHAT'S THE BEST?!? with The Clash. The future is unwritten, everybody!

Brian is a gifted bass player, most notably laying down the soulful low notes for the incredible Shayna Steele and multi-Grammy Award winning artist, song-writer and producer, PJ Morton. In fact, Brian has been playing with PJ for almost 20 years, acknowledging that their musical collaboration has helped shape him. Brian describes the incredibly profound impact a drummer named Larry had on him, certainly as a musician, but more importantly as a human being.

Do us and the world a favor. Go to your window and shout out "TINA FEY is on Las Culturistas!" Because it's true and everyone should know! Wish fulfillment is defined this week as Matt and Bowen welcome Great American Tina Fey to discuss Countess Luann fandom, Molly Ringwald's career as a transcriber of French novels, starting out at SNL in the tough-as-hell 90's, watching Benny Hill as a family, the beginning of MTV, Blockbuster culture, and the era of soda, hoagies and no fitness. All this, Disney v. Universal, SJP's 90's film work, Rachel McAdams's impact as Regina George, how Mean Girls was written on Fire Island, what makes the best SNL hosts and the joys and dangers of hosting the Golden Globes. Also, discovering the Tina and Amy magic and bringing that to the road on their Restless Leg Tour (go see it!!!), Reneé Rapp and how the Jimmy Awards are the future, deodorant culture, and a very prescient IDTSH from Tina that ranks as an all-timer. How many mozzarella sticks is enough for you? Something to think about. TINA!See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Hi everybody and welcome to this week's episode of Attendance Bias. I am your host, Brian Weinstein. Today, we are taking a ride on the the way-back machine as guest Jay Wilson takes us to the UNH college campus and tells us about his second show–April 11, 1994 at Sively Arena.1994 was a pivotal year for the band in so many ways. In addition to this spring tour promoting Hoist–which was produced to be their most commercially viable album–the band was really showing off their schizophrenic musical style, combining absurdity with prodigious talent, and they were making the final leaps from large theaters to amphitheaters, at least in their most popular markets. Places like The Beacon Theater in New York would soon be replaced by Madison Square Garden, and this was when New England was still their stomping ground. By 1995 virtually all of New England would be left behind, except for the occasional stop.Today's conversation touches on virtually all of those aspects of 1994 Phish. But there's much more to it than that. Let's join Jay to talk about New Years Eve shows, falling in a hole, and jazz, as we discuss Phish's show from April 11, 1994 at Snively Arena.
The titular host of The Jeff Katz Show -- and more important (for this week), co-star of Politics & Pints -- joins John to talk about Wednesday night's event, at Hopewell's legendary Beacon Theater. (Tickets are still for sale . . . but going -- fast! Get yours here.)

The Second Arrangement is the title of a Steely Dan song that was once accidentally erased by a studio tech during the band's Gaucho sessions and thought never to be heard again. It has been the subject of lore amongst Steely Dan fans for decades, until bootlegs and samples of demos began finding their way onto the internet, which gave fans an idea as to what this lost, Gaucho-era track actually sounded like. In 2011, the band performed the track live during a Rarities Night show at the Beacon Theater in New York, which sparked the imaginations of fans, not to mention musicians such as Scott Sheriff, an ardent Steely Dan fan who fronts arguably the best Steely Dan tribute band, 12 Against Nature. Scott, along with several talented studio musicians in Nashville, decided to resurrect The Second Arrangement, and recently released a video version of the completed song, which has already gained worldwide attention. Here to discuss the momentum behind recreating this track is Scott Sheriff.
New York City may be the next city to enact a total ban on facial recognition technology. The technology, which uses surveillance cameras to identify people in public, has been garnering headlines for years, but there are few regulations on how it can be used. Some cities have taken action by enacting partial bans or moratoriums. One city, Portland, Oregon, has a total ban. A bill introduced in the the New York City Council would make it illegal for private businesses to use face scans to identify customers. This move comes after venues controlled by James Dolan's company, including Madison Square Garden, Radio City Music Hall, and the Beacon Theater, denied entrance to ticket buying patrons who happened to be lawyers who worked at law firms involved in litigation against Dolan's company. Is an all-out ban the best response to this technology? Are there less restrictive rules that could allow uses that benefit society, or is this technology such a threat to privacy and civil liberties that bans are the best option? On this episode of On The Merits, we look at how to regulate this emerging technology. We hear from tech execs, a city administrator, a law professor, and a privacy advocate.

Hosts Colton Dowling and Dylan Carlino bring Jamie Kilstein into the fold to come full frontal into the history of Hawaii and other things in history Dylan has never heard about. Jamie Kilstein is a comedian, podcaster, and writer, who lives in Austin, TX with the rest of the comedian podcasters.Jamie has appeared on the Joe Rogan Experience three times. Two of them were good and the other we don't talk about anymore. He has also performed standup on Conan, Showtime, the BBC, and more.He was fortunate enough to be mentored by Robin Williams. In 2009, Williams listed Jamie and Joan Rivers as his all-time favorite comedians.Robin said, "Jamie Kilstein is amazing, and I will be spreading the word. He has the spark that energized my conscience. We need more comedians kicking it like he does every night."Jamie got his start opening for comedic greats such as Marc Maron and Doug Stanhope after dropping out of high school, illegally squatting in NYC, and living out of his car playing coffee houses around the country for two years. Nobody approved of this very bad plan but it made Jamie funny, as most trauma does! Speaking of trauma, Jamie has also publicly talked about depression, anxiety, suicide attempts, rock bottoms, affairs, divorce, and soft cancelations.After being discovered by Paul Provenza (The Green Room and The Aristocrats), Jamie was quickly flying around the world performing at world-famous comedy and arts festivals, including: the Edinburgh Fringe Festival, the Melbourne Comedy Festival, the Sydney Comedy Festival, Bumbershoot in Seattle, Lowlands Music Festival in Amsterdam, and Latitude in London. He's done standup in Hong Kong and Beijing, and co-headlined with Reggie Watts at the Sydney Opera House and Lakeshore Theater in Chicago.He was the first comedian to appear on Montreal's Just For Laughs prestigious New Faces in 2007 and returned the next year with his own solo show alongside Bill Burr and Patrice O'Neal. He has opened for Bad Religion, Talib Kweli, and Sarah Silverman. He has also sat on MSNBC panels with Pulitzer Prize Nominees and has become a frequent guest on the show of his former enemy, Glenn Beck,Interview Magazine listed him as a comic to watch alongside Aubrey Plaza, Kristen Schall, and Reggie Watts.

He is determined to use all of the mistakes he made to help people come together, laugh, grow, and love each other more."Watching Jamie reminds me of why I got into comedy. It's like watching a combination of George Carlin and Bill Hicks." - Janeane Garofalo"Hilarious and scathing." - Rolling Stone★ ★ ★ ★★ "Kilstein is to me eerily reminiscent of Bill Hicks and not in the sense of an astute impersonation but as if we were witness to some sort of Second Coming. Eloquent intelligence, razor-sharp wit, and unconventionally convincing arguments. Kilstein is a special talent.” - Broadway Baby★ ★ ★ ★ "This is beautifully, intelligently crafted stuff. Kilstein is possibly the most impressive writer/performer I have seen–his set is so well written it could have a life apart from him and still be brilliant. Performed by him gives it an assed oomph, but I have not been so aware of the writing quality of a comedy set this year." - Kate Copstick, The Scotsman★ ★ ★ ★★ "Kilstein's savage intelligence and razor-sharp wit will make you think as much as laugh … damned funny.” - Andrew P Street, Time Out SydneyJamie Kilstein is a comedian, podcaster, and writer, who lives in Austin, TX with the rest of the comedian podcasters.
Welcome back to The Sports Law Podcast! We keep you up to date with everything happening at the intersection of sports and law. Dan Lust is joined by Mike Lawson this week to cover all the recent updates in the sports law world. Can you sue the NCAA because your team is not selected for the NCAA tournament? (2:25) Rutgers fans created an uproar after selection Sunday when Rutgers was not chosen for the March Madness tournament. Rutgers finished the season with a modest 19-15 record and ended up losing to Hofstra in the first round of the NIT tournament. Ja Morant was issued an 8-game suspension by the NBA. (7:25) Morant had been taking some time away from the Grizzlies to receive counseling following the incident where he flashed a gun on his Instagram while he was in a club. We discuss the comparable suspensions related to other conduct detrimental. Most notable was the Gilbert Arenas suspension for bringing a gun into the Wizards locker room that resulted in a 50-game suspension. We also compare this situation to the 8-game suspension that Kyrie received. Some updates in the James Dolan and MSG v. New York State Liquor Authority. (20:40) The State Liquor Authority ("SLA") hired a private investigator to look into the actions being taken by MSG (using facial recognition technology to restrict access to any venue if they are associated with a law firm with active litigation against MSG) violates the liquor laws, thus possibly resulting in a loss in their liquor licenses for those venues. These would include Madison Square Garden, Radio City Music Hall, and Beacon Theater. The SLA investigator claims that he was being followed for more than 100 miles and outside of his house taking photos. When the NYPD pulled over the vehicle later, it was reportedly a private investigator hired by MSG. MSG acknowledged they hired the PI and that it was "common and legal practice" to do so. Dolan and MSG filed an Article 78 claim in Manhattan claiming several actions against the NYS Liquor Authority seeking a preliminary injunction from any violations. Rumors surfaced of Aaron Rodgers being traded to the New York Jets. (33:50) Not so fast, it is apparent that the Packers are demanding a higher price and it is not a done deal yet. Rogers took to the Pat McAfee Show and Barstool to discuss his plans for the future and has made it known that he will be playing for the Jets in 2023. Rogers further went on to state that he has a very tight circle and NFL reporters do not know any information related to his camp. Joe Mixon's sister and her boyfriend are being charged in connection with the teenager who was shot outside of Mixon's residence. (40:25) The prosecution held a press conference stating that Lamonte Brewer is facing four charges including felony assault for shooting Mixon's neighbor. Video evidence shows Shalanda Mixon picking up the shell casings and leaving in a vehicle with Brewer. Shalanda is also being charged with obstruction of justice and tampering with evidence. The video also shows that Joe Mixon had a weapon on him but did not draw or fire that weapon. The prosecution stated that they will not be filing any charges against Mixon because he was lawfully in possession of his own weapon. Mixon claims to have had a recent influx of death threats on social media. Dan Snyder is moving closer to a record sale of the Commanders. (46:51) However, Goodell appears to be receiving an extension on his contract that is set to expire in 2024. Could the final push of Goodell getting Snyder to sell seal the deal for the owners to vote on an extension for Goodell? *** Have a topic you want to write about?

Welcome to The Nonlinear Library, where we use Text-to-Speech software to convert the best writing from the Rationalist and EA communities into audio. This is: Next Level Seinfeld, published by Zvi on December 19, 2022 on LessWrong. Thanks to Jordan Schneider gifting a last minute ticket for an amazing seat, serendipity led me to go to Friday night's performance by Jerry Seinfeld at the Beacon Theater. If I had to describe the show in one word, I'd say it was unsurprising. Jerry was Jerry. He had thoughts. Mostly he had complaints. They were all Very Seinfeld. If I had two words I might say mildly amusing. Which was good enough for a worthwhile evening. Live performances are something special. Every time I've gone out to a comedy show, even if a bunch of it was kind of lame, I have been happy I came. The correct bar for worth watching is actually lower in person than at home. The thought I couldn't shake as I went home was, what GPT level was that on? This first came to me during the opening act. His opening act was if anything too on the nose. Very Jerry. Much Seinfeld. It felt very much like he had GPT-X put together a package of Standard Mildly Amusing Jokes and Perspectives, with the prompt that the performer was black, old, male, never married and the opening act for Jerry Seinfeld. Given the material, delivery was solid. The question was, what was the X in GPT-X? I am confident our current incarnation, which is GPT-3.5 or so, can't do it. What about GPT-4? Could go either way, if you could try out bits and select winners. What about GPT-5? Yes, absolutely, if it is what I'd expect, that should work. So I'd give that act a GPT-level rating of 4.25. Jerry himself was on a higher level. Not as high as his peak. I'd give him a 5. What about the best stand-up shows and specials? I've seen 6s. I worry I may have never seen a 7. Thanks for listening.
