Brian, Blake, and Richard are back for Episode 537 of the Chasing Tone Podcast - The Wampler Fearbox, Brian gets kicked off TikTok, and New Guitar Day   Brian is having trouble rolling his Rs and there has been a slew of pedal releases from Keeley, JHS, and apparently also Wampler. But one that caught the collective eye was a reasonably unique compressor / fuzz circuit from a good friend of the show. Richard has had an IT disaster. Brian and Blake turn into British Victorian-era urchins when asked about transistors. Wampler have released a limited edition (and now sold out) version of the Gearbox - the Fearbox - and the guys chat about it. Blake has been to see some live music and Brian somehow is an expert on this. Brian has been kicked off TikTok and he is not happy about it. Richard visited Andertons an as a result he had a new guitar day and tells us about it and some of the other guitars he tested. Blake has a new pedal from Warm Audio, has confessed he is hoarding like Smaug, and foreshadows some future releases. It seems that Richard has found his ultimate 80's guitar and is suffering from some first world problems and makes an absurd prediction that angers Blake greatly. The guys then turn the conversation to selling guitars and somehow fish and trainsets are involved. Leaks everywhere, Electric Love, Gallagher World, Silver Sky SE, RG 550, Jaguars vs Jazzmasters, Trumptonshire...it's all in this week's Chasing Tone!We are on Patreon now too!Support the show (https://www.patreon.com/chasingtonepodcast)Awesome Course, Merch and DIY mods:https://www.guitarpedalcourse.com/https://www.wamplerdiy.com/Find us at:https://www.wamplerpedals.com/https://www.instagram.com/WamplerPedals/https://www.facebook.com/groups/wamplerfanpage/Youtube:https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCdVrg4Wl3vjIxonABn6RfWwContact us at: podcast@wamplerpedals.comSupport the show

The Rev Malcolm Rogers has been in charge of the most extraordinary church.  St Andrews looks like an ordinary British Victorian church, but amazingly it's just ten minutes from the heart of power in Russia, the Kremlin.   His flock includes local Russian people but also many English speaking ex-pats and members of Moscow's international community. This would have been an unusual posting at any time, but he's been there during a remarkable period. It included the diplomatic dispute over the Salisbury poisonings, the Football World Cup staged in Russia, the Covid Pandemic and now the war in Ukraine.  It has put him in a sensitive situation at times, but it has also helped him to understand how the world is seen through Russian eyes.

Russell & Robert meet artist Lubna Chowdhary to visit two of her installations in East London. The first is a public artwork at 100 Liverpool Street titled 'Interstice' and the second a new solo exhibition 'Erratics' at PEER Gallery on Hoxton Street. Chowdhary (b.1964, Tanzania) is highly acclaimed for her ceramic works, which subvert the traditional context and utility of the medium to address a longstanding preoccupation with urbanisation and material culture. Her sculptural practice has evolved from a sustained fascination with the fusion of binary cultural and artistic influences.Her newly produced work for PEER, including wall-, floor- and plinth-based pieces also traverse material, application, and process. A range of ceramic pieces – multi-part panels and arranged Tableaux – combine industrial manufacturing technology such as water-jet cutting with highly developed hand-applied glaze techniques. These colourful and exquisitely executed works are presented alongside a selection of small, hand-built un-glazed sculptures. Chowdhary will also exhibit work in a range of new materials, which she has more recently started to work with. Three large wooden sculptures have been developed, which combine CNC (Computerised Numerical Control) with traditional craft skills, while two other works have been created in situ from easily obtainable and inexpensive industrial components and materials.The three wooden sculptures will sit on the gallery floor and give the appearance of functionality. They are in part derived from Chowdhary's research into colonial period furniture in the Victoria and Albert Museum collection carried out during her ceramic fellowship residency there in 2017. She was fascinated by the hybridity and subtle code switching of British Victorian or Edwardian domestic structures and styles as interpreted by locally employed craftsmen at the time. This ease of cultural use and misuse is echoed elsewhere in Chowdhary's work. These sculptures are fabricated using both traditional woodworking skills and state-of the-art CNC production. As with the ceramic works, this combination of technology with manual process achieves a balance between beautiful and imperfect created by master craftspeople.Acquired cultural references from her western art school education such as a preoccupation with modernist serial modularity that often regarded excessive ornament as a crime, are mixed together with her personal cultural references as an Asian Muslim born in Tanzania who moved to England in the early 1970s. In Chowdhary's work both influences are ever-present in a push-and-pull dialogue that finds a fluent sense of resolution without being programmatic. A modernist purity of form duets seamlessly with a desire for exuberant colour and ornamentation.Chowdhary's work has often been incorporated within architectural schemes for both public and private building projects and at different scales. The aperture between PEER's two gallery spaces has become the site for a strident sculptural intervention whose composition references Islamic architectural decoration on the one hand and geometric minimal or neo-geo painting on the other. The material she has employed is silver, foil-backed pipe insulation, easily purchased at any plumbers merchants. Elsewhere in the gallery, she has created a wall-based sculpture using only nails and rope from a chandlers.These works have evolved from experiments carried out during a three-month IASPIS residency in Stockholm that began in February 2020 but was curtailed after a few weeks. Without access to a ceramics studio, she became drawn to working in new ways with simple, modular materials found general hardware stores or trade suppliers, which offered the opportunity to focus on many of the core preoccupations of her practice.The title of this exhibition at PEER, Erratics, refers to large rocks or boulders that have been displaced from their original geological context through...

Okay, for starters- this is an epic episode! Even if your knowledge of BOC (like mine) begins and ends with "Don't Fear The Reaper", lol, you want to listen to this!

Dr. Alex Richardson is an expert in nutrition and health and uses a multidisciplinary approach to epidemiology. In this podcast, she connects food health and physiology, explaining to listeners How the classic paradigm for research studies fails to take into account how our complicated physiology processes food and other factors, Why common medications for stomach acid may decrease our ability to prevent cognitive decline, and What comparing the differences between the British Victorian diet and habits with our modern lifestyle tells researchers about food health. Dr. Alex Richardson is the founding director of Food and Behavior (FAB) Research and is a Research Associate with the Department of Physiology, Anatomy, and Genetics at the University of Oxford. She has been a part of several seminal studies that involve connections between nutrition and brain health. In this podcast, she focuses specifically on the epidemiology of cognitive decline diseases and nutrition. She begins by describing the very limited approach historical studies have take thus far, commenting that the accepted model of research is incapable of taking into account how our body and nutrition work together. Specially, she identifies how the randomized double-blind placebo-controlled trials only handle one nutrient or medication at a time and tells listeners why this is so inadequate. She also entails several ways this study pattern has harmed our understanding of what medications can do and provides some recent findings of how proton pump inhibitors have a multi-pronged means of harming cognitive strength.  In addition, she describes studies that show what's actually good for us, enumerating a study on the British Victorian Era's lifestyle and diet and resulting health and lack of disease. She then moves into a discussion about the harm in our modern-day diet and talks about how harmful sugar is, the importance of B vitamins and in what form, fatty acids, and other healthful choices and why.

Grand Messiah: Many people will think that the very first Messiah doesn't sound "right" as the oratorio has since come to be associated with gigantic performances. In the British Victorian era in particular Messiah could not get too big. In June 1859 nearly 82,000 people would have listened to 2,765 choir singers and 460 musicians performing Messiah. But as George Bernard Shaw wrote in 1891, As he wrote: ''IF I were a member of the House of Commons,'' George Bernard Shaw wrote, ''I would propose a law making it a capital offense to perform an oratorio by Handel with more than 80 performers in the chorus and orchestra.''Music: Dunedin Consort ‘Handel’s Original Dublin Version 1742’
