The influence of Bombay sometimes comes through gently included but obviously present samples likely from film soundtracks, and other times through the subtle rhythmic inclusion of the bustling city streets into the percussive assembly. It creates a Bombay-meets-Brooklyn sound that Rajah Betta dubs as "Bombay Club".  The Bombay-born and NYC-honed DJ, producer and radio host Sagar aka Rajah Betta is currently offering this fusion of geographic influences with an upcoming EP and an India tour that has made its way to Goa, Mumbai and Pune so far. Marking this movement with a Wild City mix, Rajah Betta's selections highlight his tendency to move through his influences.  Distorted guitars of alt-rock slip into gritty basslines of club music before the focus shifts to more percussive numbers like Laksa's 'Tech Steppas' featured next to a standout deep cut '145bpm Percussive Brain Cleanse' by Joeti. By the time we reach Batu's 'Inner Space', the mix has fully and discreetly shifted for a dark, high-tempo second half – making its final stop in the gradually transforming but quick journey through contrasting styles.

Join hosts Clay Edwards, Shaun Yurtkuran, and Lindsey Beckham for a lively Thirsty Thursday episode of "Uncensored," packed with candid banter, local insights, and hot-button debates. Kicking off with nostalgic chats about cheap beers and vodkas—debating if all vodkas taste the same, from Pinnacle to Grey Goose—the trio dives into spirits like gin (Tanqueray vs. Bombay) and the golden age of liquor packaging. They shout out local spots like RJ Singh's gas station for craft beers and discuss new ventures, including a massive pickleball entertainment complex in Flowood and the trendy Taste restaurant in Ridgeland. Clay plugs his FAFO merchandise at buyfafo.com and invites listeners to the Wildlife Extravaganza at the Clyde Muse Center, featuring celebs like Duck Dynasty's Buck Commander crew, Heather Smith from Naked and Afraid, and Andy Gibson, with gun giveaways and family fun. Shifting to news, they unpack breaking stories: a Wall Street Journal report on a Trump-Epstein birthday card sparking lawsuits and backlash; a salacious Hattiesburg senator scandal involving an affair, subpoenas, and ties to a former Miss Mississippi; and alienation of affection laws in Mississippi. The hosts react to Obama's recent podcast urging boys to have gay mentors for empathy, sparking discussions on masculinity, fatherless homes, and Democratic confusion over losing male voters. Delving deeper, they tackle Jackson's crime wave—debating gang influence (70% per estimates), rap culture's impact (from NBA YoungBoy to local sets), poverty as a choice vs. circumstance, and desensitization from video games and media. They contrast urban "fight or flight" life with white suburban extremes like cults, emphasizing accountability over excuses like systemic racism. Raw, unfiltered opinions on local politics, culture rot, and positive steps under Jackson's new mayor round out this engaging 2-hour chat.

Degens Andy S and Brandon Bombay got the whole wide world, in their hands, as they discuss 'Con Air.' Bombay opens the proceedings by telling the time he had his own flight from hell from Asia which involved being awake for 36 hours after a bender, with his arm in a sling. Then the fellas talk about one of the goofiest studio movies of the '90s, a film where Jerry Bruckheimer tapped a gun for hire to do his best Michael Bay impression, and the KY budget was record breaking as everyone glistened on screen. Nic Cage's flowing locks, and hackey inconsistent sometimes southern, sometimes Cajun accent, gets top billing, but it's an insanely stacked cast. John Malkovich chews scenery to degrees that'll make your jaw hurt, Danny Trejo is an ultra predatory latin Pepe le Pew, and Steve Buscemi is a poetic psychopath who wears heads for hats. Meanwhile, approximately 58% of the plot revolves around Cage's Poe securing insulin for his friend. None of it makes sense, but it ends with not one, but two wild crash scenes that tear up the majority of the Las Vegas strip. Whether you love the movie or find it overly cartoonish you'll want to tune in for this episode ... "or the bunny gets it."

Degens Andy S and Brandon Bombay take a Los Angeles city bus to the studio to record their 'Speed' episode. Bombay gets it started by reminiscing about the time he saw two girls getting harassed on public transit, and how it wound up in a fortuitous meeting. Then there's a "Pop quiz, hot shot!" as the fellas do their best to bring Dennis Hopper-esque unhinged energy to discuss this '90s classic. Besides Hopper's looney turn as a villain, there's a ton to like in this wonderfully-paced actioner that's filled with wonderful character actors in supporting roles, and bolstered by two undeniable leads that are propelled into ludicrous situation after ludicrous situation. Perhaps none more unbelievable than the fact that nearly everyone taking the bus were on a first name basis with each other. On top of all that there are multiple practical F/X set pieces that clearly cost the lives of several crew members. When talking about all this, the guys do their best to bring undeniable charm to the proceedings, similar to Sandra Bullock's star-making role. Much like an unreliable city bus you have to take to work, you won't want to miss this ep.

Degens Andy S and Brandon Bombay light the fuse for a special Cruisemas edition of the podcast as they discuss one of the greatest action movies of all-time, 'Mission: Impossible - Fallout.' Bombay jumps into action by remembering a time when a gorgeous girl hit him with a surprisingly hard kiss, reminiscent of Vanessa Kirby grabbing Ethan Hunt. Then Andy recalls utilizing MoviePass when this was in theater and seeing this flick countless times while being unemployed — and severely under the influence. Then the fellas chat about this instant classic, and make a motion for 'Fallout' to not only be taught in every classroom, but to be requisite viewing for all children across America. This leads to discussing their favorite action set pieces, and having difficulty deciding between the HALO jump, the inner city motorcycle chase, and the bonkers helicopter flight chase sequence. Choosing between those is almost as difficult as the game of Marry, Marry, Marry between the enchanting lightly-freckled trio of Rebecca Ferguson, Vanessa Kirby, and Michelle Monaghan. Simon Pegg's franchise-best comedic chops get some love, as do Ving Rhames' hats. Even Henry Cavill finds his calling as a mustachioed heavy, who can't comprehend why Cruise's Hunt won't just die. Of course, it's all held together by cinema's savior who made the ultimate sacrifice by breaking his ankle Jackie Chan 'Rumble in the Bronx'-style when he jumped out of a window for our entertainment. The greater the suffering, the greater the podcast. Merry Cruisemas to all!

Fear is a natural part of life. A healthy level of fear is necessary; it keeps us from walking down dark alleys alone, it reminds us to wear our seatbelts, and it nudges us when we're standing near the edge of a cliff. But when everything in life feels like a danger, we begin to manifest unhealthy fear patterns in our bodies and minds. When we approach fear from a MindBody perspective, our nervous systems relax and we start to build safety from within. Once fear becomes the passenger, rather than the driver, magic becomes possible in all areas of life. What am I reading?Six Days in Bombay by Alka Joshihttps://bookshop.org/a/111301/9780778368533Mind Your Body by Nicole Sachshttps://bookshop.org/a/111301/9780593716939Cure for Chronic Pain Podcasthttps://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-cure-for-chronic-pain-with-nicole-sachs-lcsw/id1439580309https://bookshop.org/shop/witchywomanwalkingWhat's playing on repeat?Jerk it Out by CaesarsWhat's for dinner? Sweet Potato & Sausage Hash w/ EggsIngredients:3 Tbsp olive oil 2 sweet potatoes chopped1 onion diced1 bell pepper red, orange, yellow, chopped1/2 lb sausage1/4-1/2 tsp paprika or smoked paprikaSea salt and black pepperPinch red pepper flakes4 eggsThinly sliced scallionsServe with avocado and salsa Instructions:Preheat oven to 400 degrees.Heat a large skillet, preferably cast iron, over medium heat and add 1 Tbsp of the oil to melt.

In this hilariously unfiltered AMA episode, Cyrus and Shamik tackle the truly important questions of our time. With the rail budget going up, should we expect trains to finally run on time—or just more confident announcements? They debate what one really needs to survive a 4 km walk to a Guns N’ Roses concert: water, willpower, or a cardboard cutout of Slash. There’s talk of a potential Hera Pheri: South Bombay Edition, a suggestion that Neeraj Chopra might just double as a missile launcher, and whether Uorfi Javed’s Cannes moment has emotionally prepared us for her Met Gala debut. Plus, is the $3500 iPhone actually just an “iLoan” now? Should AppleCare come with financial counselling? And with the IPL being rained out left and right, is it time to rename it the Indian Puddle League—or just switch to water polo?

The second and final extract (45:54) in this episode is from the sixth talk in London 1961, and is titled: Respectability and Conditioning. Each episode of the Krishnamurti podcast is based on a significant theme of his talks. Extracts from the archives have been selected to represent Krishnamurti's different approaches to these universal and timelessly relevant topics. This episode's theme is Respectability. Upcoming themes are Thinking, Sensitivity and The Scientific and Religious Mind. This is a podcast from Krishnamurti Foundation Trust, based at Brockwood Park in the UK, which is also home to The Krishnamurti Centre.

Degens Andy S and Brandon Bombay stop by a strip club while on duty to talk about an action-comedy classic, 'Beverly Hills Cop.' Bombay opens up discussion about this fish out of water tale of a Detroit cop with some stories about his family dealing with cops while living in Detroit. Then the fellas dive into the movie, which has a thin plot that is just an excuse to let prime Eddie Murphy riff, and let killer '80s songs rip. The inciting incident involves Murphy's Axel Foley being visited by a "hoodlum" friend from his past, and that leads to Andy recalling when he had to cut ties with an uninvited house guest. In the flick, that leads to Axel heading out to Beverly Hills where he befriends mismatched friends Taggart and Rosewood while talking himself out of countless situations by lying on the fly. Comedy does the heavy lifting, but there's some great action set pieces, a screaming irate police captain — which Hollywood needs to bring back as a trope — and infectious tunes peppered throughout. It closes with a freeze frame of Murphy making a goofy face into the camera before cueing up a Patti LaBelle track. Much like the film being discussed, the fellas do not take themselves very seriously this episode.

In this Hip Deep program, we explore musical connections between Africa and India. First up is the story of the Afro-Indian Sidi community. In the 13th century, Africans arrived in India as soldiers in the armies of Muslim conquerors. Some were able to rise through the ranks to become military leaders and even rulers. Their descendants continue to live in India today, performing African-influenced Sufi trance music at shrines to the black Muslim saint named Baba Gor. Next, we dive into the swinging jazz era of 1930s Bombay, when African-American jazz musicians arrived by the dozen to perform at the glitzy Taj Mahal Hotel. They trained a generation of Indian jazz musicians who would become instrumental in the rise of India's Hindi film music industry. Then we head south to the island of Sri Lanka, where Africans have had a presence for almost 500 years. We explore their history through the groovy Afro-Indo-Portuguese pop music style known as baila, popularized by 1960s star Wally Bastiansz and still performed at parties in Sri Lanka today. Finally, we speak with Deepak Ram, a Indian jazz flutist who recounts his experiences growing up Indian in apartheid South Africa. Throughout, we hear from leading experts, and of course, introduce fantastic and often-unexpected music. Produced by Marlon Bishop APWW #663
