This week on Rick's Rambles Podcast, we've got another fun, meaningful, and slightly quirky mix of stories, music history, and encouragement to brighten your day.
On this week's show, Dana is joined by Slate's own Nadira Goffe and Richard Lawson, of the Critical Darlings podcast. Their first agenda item is Jury Duty Presents: Company Retreat, the second installment of the workplace comedy/reality show hybrid which places an unknowing everyman in a made-up scenario populated entirely by actors. Does the second season deliver a heart-warming moral test in the form of comedy or a manipulative prank? They discuss.Next for more funhouse mirror television, they take up Bait, the Riz Ahmed-starring and created show about a Riz Ahmed-like actor vying for the role of James Bond. The show is stuffed with ideas and Ahmed's charm, but they debate whether its conceptual martini sufficiently shaken or stirred.Finally, it's time to go out, wear something nice, and push as they take a listen to Sexistential, the new album by Swedish dance pop queen Robyn. Though the “Dancing On My Own” singer has a new partner on the dancefloor in her young son, motherhood and midlife make for some real club classics.On a bonus episode for Plus subscribers, they take up the question, as posed in a recent New Yorker article, of whether “plagiarism is that bad?”EndorsementsRichard: The compulsively watchable time travel family drama The Way Home, a Hallmark Channel Original. (And subscribing to Critical Darlings)Nadira: The ten minute disco cover of "Bridge Over Troubled Water" by Linda Clifford and the album WOR$T GIRL IN AMERICA by Slayyyter.

We've decided to do a deep dive on some of our favourite albums to explore the stories behind them.What did the artists really think of each other? Where did the inspirations from the songs come from?Joining Andrea to discuss is Alan Buckley from the Irish Rock ‘N' Roll Museum Experience, who's going to talk through Simon & Garfunkel's ‘Bridge Over Troubled Water'!
Youth homelessness is often invisible. It happens quietly, in cars, on couches, in shelters, or on the street, and many young people experiencing it are navigating the challenge alone.On this episode of the Charity Charge Show, host Grayson Harris speaks with Elisabeth Jackson, CEO of Bridge Over Troubled Waters, an organization that has spent decades supporting homeless and runaway youth in Boston.The conversation explores the scale of youth homelessness, the services Bridge provides, and how nonprofits can create long-term pathways for young people to move from crisis to stability.

Team Simon here! As we take a short hiatus, A Bit of Optimism will return with brand-new episodes on March 24, 2026. Until then, we're revisiting some of the conversations you loved and we still think about long after the microphones turned off. This week, we're rewinding to Simon's conversation with the wildly creative and endlessly curious Jacob Collier. To create something truly original, do we build something new or break what came before? Perhaps the answer is both—simultaneously. Jacob Collier does exactly that. A songwriter, multi-instrumentalist, and Grammy Award winner, Jacob has built a career on blending structure with spontaneity. He's known for turning entire concert halls into three-part choirs, transforming audiences from spectators into collaborators. His album "Djesse Volume 4" was nominated for Album of the Year at the 2025 Grammy Awards, alongside icons like Beyoncé, Billie Eilish, and Taylor Swift. Although Beyoncé's "Cowboy Carter" won, Jacob snagged his seventh Grammy for his rendition of "Bridge Over Troubled Water." Simon sat down with Jacob in a music studio just days before the 2025 Grammys, surrounded by pianos and possibility. What unfolded was more than a conversation about music. It was a masterclass in creativity, about holding opposites at once, embracing imperfection, and having the courage to follow curiosity wherever it leads. If you've ever wondered how creativity really works or how to find your own voice without losing what came before—this one's worth another listen. This… is A Bit of Optimism. --------------------------- For more on Jacob, check out: http://jacobcollier.com @jacobcollier ---------------------------

It's been a frigid, unforgiving winter, but sometimes, that doesn't matter if you're a young person in an unsafe situation and feel you need to get away, quick. Instead of leaving them on the streets to suffer in the elements, "Bridge Over Troubled Waters" is working overtime to make sure homeless, at-risk, and runaway youth have a secure, warm place to stay. Executive Director Elisabeth Jackson returns to the show this week to talk about her team's efforts on the front lines and why so many youth find themselves without a safe place to go.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
In Part 2 of our review of "Elvis: That's The Way It Is" the gang takes a look at our Patreon supporters's votes and comments on which version of the film is preferred, then debate the merits of the inclusion of interviews with fans and hotel staff in the original, as well as the producers' reasons for removing fan favorites such as "I Just Can't Help Believin'" and "Bridge Over Troubled Water' in favor of more well-known Elvis hits like "Don't Be Cruel" and "Hound Dog" for the Special Edition. Justin challenges the commonly held belief that the Special Edition features substantially more time with Elvis than the theatrical cut, Elvis biographer Peter Guralnick's take on the film in "Careless Love" is contrasted with what we now know of Elvis's thoughts on the film, and the group looks forward to how both versions of the movie may influence Baz Luhrmann's EPiC.

Simon and Garfunkel - Bookends (Columbia) Released on April 3, 1968,Bookends stands as one of the most concise yet thematically ambitious albums of the 1960s. The album blends folk, pop, and studio experimentation into a unified meditation on aging, memory, and identity. Conceived partly as a song cycle, Side One traces the arc of life—from youthful searching in “America” to mortality in “Old Friends”—framed by the delicate “Bookends Theme.” Inspired by the album-as-art statement approach of Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band, the record features layered production shaped by engineer Roy Halee. Side Two balances introspection with radio-ready immediacy, including the cultural landmark “Mrs. Robinson,” written for the film The Graduate. Though running under 30 minutes, the album feels expansive in scope, thanks to its orchestration, field recordings, and emotional pacing. Bookends became the duo's first No. 1 album and helped secure their full artistic control for the even more ambitious Bridge Over Troubled Water. More than a collection of hits, it remains a poignant reflection on time's passage and the fragile beauty of human connection.(S5-Ep7)
A shooting at a high school in Tumbler Ridge, British Columbia has left one suspect dead, but police can't yet confirm if a second suspect is involved.Also: Canada is forced to navigate President Trump's recent Truth Social post. He threatened to block the opening of the Gordie Howe International Bridge that links Windsor, Ontario and Michigan, unless Canada pays up. Both Michigan and Canada will jointly own the structure, and will reap its financial benefits. The bridge was paid for – in full – by Canadian taxpayers.And: More Canadian airlines cancel flights to Cuba as the island struggles to provide fuel. The energy crisis, due in part to economic sanctions, is crippling the Cuban economy.Plus: Ottawa still making payments on more F-35 jets, Canada-US Olympic hockey, and more.

Discograffiti is the deep-dive podcast for music obsessives. In this episode, we feature the next entry in The Chuck Granata Pet Sounds Interview Series. It's Chuck's chat with Larry Knechtel, the Wrecking Crew keyboard player and bassist who—along with Brian Wilson & The Beach Boys—has worked with Simon & Garfunkel, Duane Eddy, The Mamas & The Papas, The Monkees, The Doors, The Byrds, The Grass Roots, Elvis Presley, Jerry Garcia, and Billy Joel. He also was a key member of the band Bread. Larry passed away a few years later in 2009, which makes this posthumously released “Chuck Chat” yet another priceless buried treasure. Here are just a few of the many things that Larry discusses with Discograffiti in this podcast: What he ascertained early on as a studio musician's average career length, which then led to a healthy fear of his phone no longer ringing; His legendary work on Simon & Garfunkel's “Bridge Over Troubled Water”; Besides Brian, the only Beach Boy he says his fellow studio musicians ever saw in the studio along with them; The curse of having perfect pitch; And his friendship with Jim Gordon…not to mention the fate of the 50+ hours of jam tapes that he recorded with him, which included spoken ruminations on what was bugging Jim at the time. There'll be a short sneak peak running publicly for free, but the entirety of this podcast will only be accessible on the Major Tier of Discograffiti's Patreon. Don't miss it, or you'll only be getting part of the story. Get it as a one-off, or better yet just subscribe…and then we'll all have world peace.

1975 ergattert Paul Simon mit seinem Album "Still Crazy After All These Years" eine der begehrtesten Musiktrophäen überhaupt: den Grammy für das "Album des Jahres". Neben dem Grammy für das "Album des Jahres" konnte Paul Simon auch noch die Trophäe für die "beste männliche Gesangsdarbietung" abräumen. Besonders gefreut haben dürfte ihn aber auch, dass das Album bei seinen Fans so gut angekommen ist. Millionenfach hat sich die Platte verkauft. Ein Grund dafür ist womöglich einer der größten Hits des Albums, "50 Ways To Leave Your Lover". Vor seiner Solokarriere war Paul Simon bereits ein Star; als Teil des Duos Simon & Garfunkel hatten die beiden Hits wie "Bridge Over Troubled Water", "Mrs. Robinson" und "Sound Of Silence". Als Solokünstler wollte Paul Simon weg von der Folkmusik und sich in anderen Genres ausprobieren. Das hören wir nicht nur auf dem Album "Still Crazy After All These Years", sondern auch auf den vorherigen Platten und ganz besonders auch auf dem späteren Album "Graceland", auf dem Paul Simon sich auch der Weltmusik zuwendet. Für SWR1 Musikredakteur Stephan Fahrig ist dieses Album vor allem ein Jazzalbum, wie er im Podcast erklärt. Und für den Jazz auf Weltklasse-Niveau hat sich der ehemalige Folkmusiker Paul Simon eine lange Liste exzellenter Gastmusiker ins Studio geholt. Außerdem hat Simon seine persönlichen Fähigkeiten erweitert. Vor dem Album hat er sich intensiv mit Musiktheorie und Harmonielehre auseinandergesetzt, und das merkt man dem Album an, erklärt Katharina Heinius im Podcast. Kurz bevor das Album entstanden ist, hatte Paul Simon sich von seiner langjährigen Beziehung getrennt. Gleichzeitig ist er mit seinem musikalischen Partner Art Garfunkel zum Weltstar aufgestiegen – und das alles, obwohl er erst Mitte 30 war, als er das Album gemacht hat. Man kann also sagen, dass Paul Simon bis dahin schon viel erlebt hatte. Deshalb ist es auch nur passend, dass es auf dem Album "Still Crazy After All These Years" zu vielen Teilen um Erlebtes und um Erinnerungen jeglicher Art geht und man – so sagt es der Titel – immer noch verrückt ist. Wir hören auf "Still Crazy..." ganz viele verschiedene Musikstile. Es ist viel Jazz dabei, Soul und auch Gospel. Wir hören, wie Paul Simon sich vom Folk abhebt und sich in unterschiedlichsten Musikrichtungen ausprobiert – mit Erfolg. Dieses Album ist ein ganz wichtiger Baustein in der Entwicklung von Paul Simon, erklärt Katharina Heinius im Meilensteine Podcast zu "Still Crazy After All These Years". __________ Über diese Songs vom Album "Still Crazy After All These Years" wird im Podcast gesprochen (13:15) – "Still Crazy After All These Years"(32:26) – "My Little Town"(41:48) – "50 Ways To Leave Your Lover"(55:34) – "Gone At Last"__________ Alle Shownotes und weiterführenden Links zur Folge "Still Crazy After All These Years" findet ihr hier: https://1.ard.de/paul_simon_still_crazy_after_all_these_years __________ Ihr wollt mehr Podcasts wie diesen?

This week…. An encore of our 2016 conversation with legendary musician Paul Simon. Paul Simon first gained prominence in the 1960s as one-half of duo Simon and Garfunkel. Their hits included The Sound of Silence, Mrs. Robinson, and songs from their fifth and final album, Bridge Over Troubled Water. Simon expanded his music beyond traditional American folk rock in a highly successful solo career that included platinum selling albums like Graceland and Rhythm of the Saints. He was twice inducted into the Rock n Roll Hall of Fame.On June 6, 2016, Simon came to the Sydney Goldstein Theater in San Francisco to talk to writer Dave Eggers about his painstaking process, in which he has sometimes taken more than two years to finish a single song - and about the physics of sound. At the time this program was recorded, Simon was touring and had just performed two concerts at Berkeley's Greek Theater. In 2018, he announced he was retiring from public performance, in part because of hearing issues. but in 2025, at the age of 83, he returned to the stage with “A Quiet Celebration Tour”.
Helen and Gavin chat about Ali Wong: Single Lady, King of the Hill, The Naked Gun, and The Bad Guys 2, it's Week 13 of the list of Grammy Record of the Year Winners from 1971, which will be picked from Let it Be by The Beatles, (They Long to Be) Close to You by The Carpenters, Bridge Over Troubled Water by Simon and Garkfunkel, Everything is Beautful by Ray Stevens, and Fire and Rain by James Taylor.
Label: Columbia 45133Year: 1970Condition: M-Last Price: $12.00. Not currently available for sale.Found one! This is a beautiful, Near Mint copy of the duo's second big hit from their best and, sadly, final album, Bridge Over Troubled Water. What the heck is that rhythm section doing, by the way? Anybody ever figure it out (without looking at the session notes)? By the way, it's not your imagination -- the 45 rpm version of "Cecilia" is speeded up from the LP version, which probably explains why the track is only 2:40 on the 45 but 2:55 on the LP. (!) I actually measured it by recording a snippet of the 45 (have a listen!). That segment is 2 seconds shorter from the 45 (1:43:66) than from the LP (1:45:713). Another reason why collecting 45s is so rewarding. Maybe you wondered if the LP version of "Cecilia" sounded slow all these years, but couldn't figure out why. Now you know... and you weren't imagining it! The B side, also from the album, is sublime itself in so many ways, and it's a privilege to hear it in pristine Mint audio on the original 45 record; don't forget, this song is so quiet it makes "Bridge" sound loud (!), so finding this styrene pressing with sound like this is cause for celebration! It's also worth noting that "Cecilia" was really the first recording that showed how much in love with complex rhythms Paul Simon had become. (And what a master producer as well!) Many of his solo releases demonstrate that passion, starting with his first single, "Mother And Child Reunion," which was one of the first hits with a reggae/ska rhythm by someone not from Jamaica. But in particular I think of his great single Late In The Evening (from the failed album/movie, One Trick Pony), and his entire Graceland and Rhythm of the Saints albums.?Note: This copy comes in a vintage Columbia Records factory sleeve. The audio sounds pristine Mint. The labels and vinyl (styrene) both grade Near Mint with faint storage wear and signs of possible light use.

We covered the self-titled debut album from Crosby, Stills & Nash in episode 137. Deja Vu is considered the second Crosby, Stills & Nash album, but it is actually the first album by Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young, with Canadian songwriter Neil Young turning the trio into a quartet.While the album continues to feature the signature harmonies associated with Crosby, Stills & Nash, it has a harder, more rocking edge to it. Some of this is undoubtedly due to the addition of Neil Young to the album, but it also reflects the challenges the group members were facing. Both Stephen Stills and Graham Nash had gone through break-ups in their relationships, and David Crosby tragically had lost his girlfriend Christine Hinton in a car accident.The album was highly anticipated, generating $2 million in pre-sales before its release. It became a gold record only 14 days after release, and was on the Billboard 200 album chart for 88 weeks. Contemporary critics provided mixed reviews, but the album has only grown in stature over time, with many reviews considering it amongst the top albums ever produced. Deja Vu was inducted into the Grammy Hall of fame in 2012.After its release, each of the principal members of the group would record solo albums, and the success of Deja Vu contributed to the individual success of these four solo projects.Crosby, Stills & Nash (and sometimes Young) would continue to produce albums over the decades with their last collaboration occurring in 2015. The death of David Crosby in 2023 ended the possibility of full reunions.Wayne brings us this soft rock singer-songwriter live album for this week's podcast. Carry OnThe opening track to the album was penned by Stephen Stills who also provides lead vocals. It is a medley of two songs edited together with a jam session connector, and came together surprisingly fast during a time when most songs were taking a long time to finish. The lyrics encourage the band members to keep going through times of struggle in relationships both within and outside the band.Teach Your ChildrenGraham Nash wrote this song in 1968 when he was with The Hollies, but had not recorded it with that group at the time. Nash has associated the song with a photograph exhibit showing a child playing with a toy hand grenade, and the lyrics encourage parents to be careful in how they teach their children. Neil Young does not play on this song, but the steel guitar is provided by Jerry Garcia of the Grateful Dead. WoodstockUnlike the other tracks on this album, this song was not written by any of the band members, but was penned by Joni Mitchell. Mitchell had not attended the Woodstock festival, but was inspired to write this song told from the perspective of a concert goer after hearing her then-boyfriend Graham Nash relay the account. It has become a signature song for the group and a staple of the 60's counter-culture. Our HouseGraham Nash wrote this song as a description of a day spent with then-girlfriend Joni Mitchell and her two cats in their Laurel Canyon home. The song was written in an hour on Mitchel's piano. It went to number 30 on the Billboard Hot 100. ENTERTAINMENT TRACK:Theme from the motion Picture "Patton"This epic starring George C. Scott was playing in the theaters in 1970. It won seven Academy awards, including Best Picture. STAFF PICKS:Let It Be by The BeatlesLynch starts the staff picks with a song inspired by a dream. Paul McCartney's mother, Mary Patricia McCartney, died of cancer with Paul was 14. In the dream, his mother encourages her son by saying, "It's all right, just let it be." This single and title song from the final Beatles album debuted at number 6 on the Billboard Hot 100 before topping those charts.Cecilia by Simon & GarfunkelRob brings us the third single from the fifth and final album by Simon & Garfunkel, "Bridge Over Troubled Water." It was developed in a late night jam when the duo and friends were banging on a piano bench and recording the sound with a tape recorder. The lyrics depict the heartbreak of a boy delivered from Cecilia his unfaithful lover.The Rapper by The JaggerzBruce features the most successful single from the band whose guitarist and primary songwriter would go on to be Donny Iris. The song is a warning to the ladies not to be taken in by a smooth talking man telling them lies. It went to number 2 on the charts.Superlungs My Supergirl by Terry ReidWayne's closes out the staff picks with a cover originally written by Donovan about a 14-year old groupie. Terry Reid was Jimmy Page's first pick to be lead singer of Led Zeppelin, but was unavailable at the time due to his touring schedule with Cream and the Rolling Stones. Reid would acquire the nickname of Superlungs. NOVELTY TRACK:Pineapple and the Monkey by The FacesThis instrumental from The Faces debut album takes us out for this week.

BY FAITH @ Real Talk - Bridge Over Troubled Waters
Bridge Over Troubled Waters: Taylor Cavanaugh's Journey from Demons to Desire Some fall and stay broken. Others build a bridge and rise. Taylor Cavanaugh was a gifted student and elite athlete—but he was also a restless spirit chasing chaos. His journey spirals through addiction, jail, bar fights, and breakdowns. Then, somehow, a way through. He claws his way into the Navy SEALs. Falls again. Reinvents himself through one of the most brutal gauntlets on earth: the French Foreign Legion. In this powerful episode of Chatter That Matters, Taylor shares how he battled his demons, confronted his darkest truths, and rebuilt himself through pain, purpose, and discipline. He speaks candidly about finding meaning not in titles, but in habits. Not in pleasure, but in purpose. Taylor's story is a reminder that no matter how deep the water, you can build a bridge—and cross it.
Part 3 of our Series Bridges!
To create something truly original, do we build something new or break what came before? Perhaps the answer is both—simultaneously.Jacob Collier does exactly that. A brilliant songwriter and musician, he's known for transforming his live audiences into massive three-part choirs, making music with the very people who attend his concerts. His album Djesse Volume 4 was nominated for Album of the Year at the 2025 Grammy Awards, alongside icons like Beyoncé, Billie Eilish, and Taylor Swift. Although Beyoncé's Cowboy Carter won, Jacob snagged his seventh Grammy for his rendition of "Bridge Over Troubled Water."I sat down with him in a music studio a few days before the Grammys, surrounded by multiple pianos, and it was a joy to hear him play. Jacob's approach to music—blending structure with spontaneity—offers insights into creativity that are as inspiring as his sound.This…is A Bit of Optimism.For more on Jacob, check out:jacobcollier.com
