After surviving many close calls as a war correspondent — from bullets, mortars and the threat of execution — Rod Nordland was diagnosed with a lethal brain tumor in 2019. He died last week, at the age of 75. In his interview with Terry Gross last year, he spoke about facing his mortality as a war correspondent and as a terminal cancer patient. Nordland covered wars and conflicts in Iraq, Afghanistan, Syria, Lebanon, Bosnia, El Salvador and Cambodia. Also, we'll listen back to Terry's 1993 conversation with legendary guitarist Buddy Guy, who has a cameo in Sinners.

Video of a harness racer, who was dragged face down for metres by her bolting horse, has gone viral with the footage viewed more than 1.5 million times. Crystal Hackett had just won a race at Alexandra Park on Friday night driving pacer Buddy Guy, when he got spooked and up-ended the sulky, the two wheeled cart behind the horse, tipping Crystal onto the ground. She held onto the reins, fearing if she let go the horse would hurt himself or another racer, and was dragged at speed across rough terrain before managing to bring him to a stop. Crystal Hackett spoke to Lisa Owen.
Over The Ditch with "Crystal Hackett" What an eventful night it was for Crystal at Alexandra Park last night.

Se nos fue Peter David, el "writer of stuff", o "escritor de cosas", según el mismo, por la gran variedad de cosas que escribía. Ademá, fue uno de los guionistas de comics más prolíficos de las últimas décadas. Su amplia bibliografía incluye desde una monumental ETAPA de doce años en Hulk, en la que se convirtió en el padre modern del personaje, siguiendo por otras etapas fundamentals en comics como Aquaman, Supergirl, Young Justice, y X-Factor, pasando por mucho Spider-Man, casi cualquier personaje de Marvel, y muchos de DC; hasta sus guiones para television live action y animada, y sus alrededor de cuarenta novelas de Star Trek. Y nos quedamos cortos, porque no mencionamos varias otras franquicias en las que trabajó, ni sus novelas y comics de autor. Además de un TITANES dedicado a su vida y obra, retocamos el sonido de una entrevista que MaGnUs le hizo en 2010 cuando David visitó Montevideo, y que prometió subtitular en algún momento. La entrevista, por supuesto, está en inglés, así que les recomendamos ir a YouTube si precisan los subtítulos. Incluso si hablan inglés, parte de la entrevista está un poco distorsionada, debido al proceso de retoque del audio viejo. Eso si, la entrevista es la única parte con subtítulos decentes (editados por completo), mientras que el resto del programa tiene subtítulos automáticos, que no son muy buenos. La entrevista si, está muy buena, modestia aparte. (Una cosa más, asegúrense de no seleccionar los subtítulos automáticos de YT, porque esos son totalmente automáticos, no tienen la parte editada de la entrevista.) Con música de The Beatles, Route 49 (interpretando a Buddy Guy), y Coheed and Cambria. Próximo programa: Magic Knight Rayearth (Parte I).

Mike and Kenny review and spot faith reflected in the latest film from writer / director Ryan Coogler which stars Michael B. Jordon in dual roles as Elijah "Smoke" and Elias "Stack" Moore, twin brothers returning from a mysterious time Chicago to their Mississippi Delta home town to start again. Set in the 1930's "Smoke" and "Stack," flush with cash and mystery on how they made it, seek to start again by opening a Juke Joint for the black community in their town. Amidst the challenges they were expecting such as from the Klan, their biggest threat is supernatural evil. Faith Spotted: The destructive power of temptation and greed, whether for riches, power, influence, or eternal life. Although sin and the brokenness of the world impact all of creation, people have freedom and choose to invite or let sin and unrighteousness into their lives. As taught in Scripture, God offers people the freedom to accept relationship with, and righteousness of, God. Likewise people choose to accept or invite sin/the Devil into their lives, rather than it invading or taking over. Life outside the grace and love of God is not a blessing but a burden that imprisons the body and destroys one's spirit. The film depicts the teaching of Jesus in Matthew 10:28 that one should not fear that which can kill only the body, but fear that which kills the soul. The vampire /Dracula mythology and symbolism that dates back thousands of years depicts the struggle of evil against good. The place and role of music in black culture and the black church.

Have you ever been watching a classic vampire movie like “Fright Night” or “The Lost Boys” and thought, “This is good, but this could be great with two of the guy who played Apollo Creed's kid in those ‘Creed' movies as well as some blues music and a dash of racial commentary!”? Well, put up your black square on Instagram and clutch your George Floyd bobblehead in celebration because a celebration is a comin'! Your reason for celebrating is the movie “Sinners” from director Ryan Coogler. He directed the Black Panther movies and the first two Creed movies and sinks his teeth into the vampire genre with his latest movie. No “Wakanda Forever” in this. More like “Live Forever” in this southern-fried take on vampire movies. Coogler's favorite leading man, Michael B. Jordan plays both Smoke and Stacks (Get it. Smokestack!), identical twins who've made a name and some money in the criminal game. Now they're coming home back down south from Chicago to open up their own juke joint for dancing, drinking and gambling. Their own little taste of Vegas in the Deep South. Along the way they pick up their younger cousin, Preacher Boy Sammie, who is very talented with a guitar and a blues voice from the heavens. He's played by the impressive Miles Caton. Before long, some vampires show up to try to make the good times last forever but in a blood-sucking evil way and the movie goes from bluesy crime drama to stakes in the heart and burning vampires. Is it worth your time at the theater? Check out this episode to find out! “Sinners” also stars Delroy Lindo, Jack O'Connell, Hailee Steinfeld, Yao, Saul Williams and Omar Miller.

Paul Nelson, a Grammy award winning producer elevated his career as a guitarist /songwriter/producer for the legendary bluesman Johnny Winter. Paul also played with many of the world's iconic guitarists including Eric Clapton and Buddy Guy. A member of the New York Blues Hall of Fame, Paul left his mark on the blues genre. A sudden heart attack, took Paul's life just a couple months after award-winning program director and show producer, Ray White, interviewed him in November of 2023. A super guy, who left this world much too soon. Listen to more of our interview with Paul on Episode 171 of our sister show - Sittin' In With The CAT. In our showcase segment, your "Hostess With The Mostess," Lisa Davis features guitar slinger Buddy Guy in our showcase segment. His latest album is The Blues Don't Lie. Nothing but the blues on this episode, brought to you from your friends at the Coool CAT!
Luke wastes little time explaining why he gave Sinners a "12 out of 10" once the credits hit, and Corrye articulates why he's already pre-ordered the Blu-Ray steelbook (despite no release date yet). Ryan Coogler joins the short list of "can't wait to see what they do next" directors after commandeering this beauty. The music, the performances, the character chemistry - we may have an instant classic on our hands, courtesy of 1930s Mississippi. PLUS: we honor the late great Val Kilmer.
HAPPY 400TH EPISODE - Thanks to all listeners and subscribers for your continued support!!! :)Smoke and Stack (both played by Michael B. Jordan) are twin brothers who also are both recent World War I veterans and Chicago gangsters. It's 1932 and they have now returned to their home town in the MIssissippi Delta to start their own juke joint. They find the right spot and recruiter plenty of friends and family to get involved including their cousin Sammie (Miles Caton) who plays a mean guitar and Smoke's ex-wife Annie (Wunmi Mosaku) who cooks some great catfish. They gather various talent and kick off what looks like a promising night of blues music and merry......though there appear to be some unexpected visitors who come calling lead by Remmick (Jack O' Connell) and needless to say, these guys seem to be thirsty....though not for what you would expect. :o And what results is one wild, CRAZY night....not every one is likely to survive that night either! Hailee Steinfeld, Delroy Lindo, and Jayme Lawson are also part of this extended cast in this raucous horror musical (?) from Oscar-nominated director Ryan Coogler (Black Panther, Creed).

Whether he's channeling Duane Allman or Derek Trucks, playing blues bars or baseball stadiums (he's done the National Anthem for both the A's and the Giants), JULES LEYHE simply does not stop playing guitar, and his love for the instrument is infectious. Armed with an SG, a mutt Strat, and a custom Tweed amp, Leyhe plugs in with me for an inspiring, extended guitar hang in which we dive into everything from Jeff Beck (Leyhe's first major influence) to Bonnie Raitt to Buddy Guy to Leyhe's latest album, titled Your First Rodeo. And get this: Leyhe's favorite slide has booze in it. (He'll explain.) For more Jules Leyhe guitar insights, check out his free Ultimate Slide Guitar Master Class and Just Riffin' interview series, both of which are streamable on his YouTube channel.

It's another amazing interview on this week's edition of Time Signatures with Jim Ervin. Erv welcomes Kid Ramos to the show, and they had a lot to talk about. Kid is promoting a new album, but of course, they had to discuss other things along the way, too. From his early years working with James Harmon, his trips to the Golden Bear in Orange County to see Buddy Guy and many others, his deep obsession with the Blues-despite the fact he was a kid from Anaheim, and his decades-long stint as a Blues musician. The new album, by the way, is called “Strange Things Happening”. It's a collection of Gospel influenced Blues with songs made famous by Sis. Rosetta Tharpe, the Soul Stirrers, and Mahalia Jackson, and was released March 21st on Nola Blue Records.

This episode will explore a different avenue involving Pearl Jam outside of their live shows. As many know, multiple members of the band are considered avid fans of baseball - most notably Eddie Vedder. From shows in legendary ballparks such as Wrigley Field and Fenway Park, to their music that's been provided as a soundtrack to the game over the years, there are about a hundred different connections that you can make with the band and the game. On the eve of Opening Day, we'll dig deep into what makes Pearl Jam and baseball the perfect match, from drawing a parallel line to the fandoms and exploring Ed's history as a rockstar ambassador to the game. Listen in as we'll have a great conversation with long time acclaimed baseball writer, Peter Gammons. Peter has been long known for his affinity for both fandoms, and we'll get to talking with him about the Hot Stove Cool Music benefit, playing on stage alongside Bernie Williams and his personal hero Buddy Guy, his relationship with Eddie, some of his favorite Pearl Jam lyrics and how they connect to baseball, Fenway Park as a music venue, and he'll even share some of his bold predictions for the upcoming 2025 season. It's a can't miss interview, make sure you tune in! We'll also talk to a panel of great friends who share passions for both the band and the game, and we'll share a lot of stories about ballpark shows and experiences. We have fan representation for the Mets, Cubs, Phillies, Red Sox, Yankees, Padres and Braves, and somehow we all made it out alive! We also put together our favorite Pearl Jam live moments that incorporate baseball, so you won't want to miss it!

We're celebrating our 10th anniversary all year by digging in the vaults to re-present classic episodes with fresh commentary. Today, we're revisiting our 2015 conversation with Bill Withers. ABOUT BILL WITHERSPop and R&B legend Bill Withers released nine albums between 1971 and 1985 that included such classic songs as “Lean on Me,” “Ain't No Sunshine,” “Grandma's Hands,” “Use Me,” “Lovely Day,” and “Just the Two of Us.” Though he stepped away from the limelight in the mid-1980s, his songs have become classics that have withstood the test of time and been covered by iconic artists including Aretha Franklin, Michael Jackson, Gladys Knight, Garth Brooks, Willie Nelson, Paul McCartney, Ike & Tina Turner, Smokey Robinson, Al Green, The Staple Singers, Diana Ross, Neil Diamond, Sting, Linda Ronstadt, Roberta Flack, Buddy Guy, Barbra Streisand, and George Benson. Additionally, his music has been sampled by Jay-Z, Dr. Dre, L.L. Cool J, Tupac Shakur, and Kanye West. Withers was in the inaugural class of the West Virginia Music Hall of Fame, and is a nine-time Grammy nominee. He won three Grammy awards for Best R&B song for “Ain't No Sunshine” in 1971, “Just the Two of Us” in 1981, and the Club Nouveau cover of “Lean on Me” in 1987. He was inducted into the Songwriters Hall of Fame in 2005 and the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2015.
On this “Song Dive” episode, I am joined by Tim Foreman of Switchfoot to talk about the band's collaboration with blues legend Buddy Guy, “Last Man Standing.” We also discuss: Tim's new solo project Bongo Chico, and preview two new singles from the project “When You Walked Away” & “1995;” the 20th anniversary of the band's “Nothing Is Sound” album; how the band was sucked into Sony's XCP Copy Protection controversy (alongside of Foo Fighters' “In Your Honor”), and the unique way the band responded; and some updates on Switchfoot's next studio album, which (spoiler alert) is going to be a return to a more guitar driven sound! Be sure to visit MyWeeklyMixtape.com to hear all of the songs we discussed in this episode! Theme music is "Unveiled" by The 4th. You can find the album on Spotify, Apple Music, Amazon Music, Pandora, YouTube, Bandcamp & more!

Send us a textBrendan Forrest considers the folk tradition as his primary music pursuit. He focuses on bluegrass and Americana-adjacent styles, including singer-songwriter and flatpicking as a solo artist and roots with a full backing band.Forrest has been playing traditional music from a young age. He started playing the highland bagpipes at ten years old, falling in love with Celtic music through his Irish-American heritage. At the age of sixteen, he started teaching himself guitar after delving into the folk and rock worlds for the first time.By the time he got into college, even though he had played music on his own for years, he didn't feel confident in his abilities. However, while in college, a jazz drummer complimented Forrest's abilities and encouraged him to explore and expand them more. In response, Forrest switched to a music major, started exploring jazz and bluegrass, and never turned back.After graduating college, Forrest decided to pursue a musical career, even discovering his grandmother was an opera singer. From hip-hop to electronica to jazz and classical, he's explored whatever he can, initially releasing projects under an abbreviated name, B Forrest (those releases, including his 2015 album Back to Bodhi, are still available).In his late teens and early 20s, living in Chicago, he played blues on electric guitar in Buddy Guy's Legends. In his twenties, he traveled the world, busking in Paris, playing with African musicians, and teaching music in underserved public schools in rural Colorado.Now, releasing music under his full name, he has fully settled into the Americana tradition. His debut record, Daydreaming Music Fiend, is a dream come true for him. Half instrumental and half vocal, he considers it his dissertation on his musical background and inspirations.

This episode of Seeing Them Live features an in-depth and in-person conversation with Ray the Roadie and Hollywood Mike, hosts of the Rock and Roll Chicago podcast. Joined by producer and co-host Doug Florzak, the episode was recorded inside the Illinois Rock and Roll Museum on Route 66 in downtown Joliet, Illinois, where the Rock and Roll Chicago podcast is also recorded. The Rock and Roll Chicago podcast provides a platform for bands and musicians from the Chicago area, delving into the history of rock and roll in Chicago and Illinois, the current scene, and the challenges and opportunities for musicians today. Mike and Ray share humorous anecdotes, such as Mike jokingly proposing 'The Procrastinators' as a name for his next punk band, and Mike mentioning his varied musical activities, including performing with bands like Cadillac Groove and Mike and the Stillmasters, and his solo work. Mike also uncovers a rich musical heritage after meeting a cousin who fronts a Zydeco band in Louisiana, leading him to discover his extended family's significant contributions to various facets of the entertainment industry. Ray recounts his multifaceted career journey, involving roadie work, being a firefighter for 28 years, and later diving back into music and podcasting post-retirement. Personal anecdotes include Ray's memories of his first concert, seeing Chicago Transit Authority, and his best concert experience with ZZ Top, where he enjoyed backstage access and partied with the band. Mike fondly recalls his first concert, a Billy Squire show with Def Leppard as the opener, and his best concert experience, which was a transformative Buddy Guy performance that inspired him to become a musician. The episode concludes with Ray and Mike previewing their plans for upcoming podcast episodes and discussing the Illinois Rock and Roll Museum's ongoing development and various exhibits, including guitars from Buddy Guy, and its status as a non-profit organization reliant on donations and memberships for support.BANDS: 4 Non-Blondes, Alison Krauss, Billy Joel, Billy Squire, Buddy Guy, Cadillac Groove, Def Leppard, Flat Cats, Iron Maiden, Joker, Led Zeppelin, Lynyrd Skynyrd, Mabel's, Mike and the Still Masters, Outlaws, Rage Against A Machine, REO Speedwagon, REM, Robert Plant, Stevie Ray Vaughan, Train, Vulgar Boatmen, Wrought Iron Soul, ZZ Top.VENUES: Alpine Valley, Chicago Theater, El Macomber, Illinois Rock and Roll Museum, Illinois Rock and Roll Museum on Route 66, International Amphitheater, Mabel's, Ravinia, Rialto Square Theater, Rosemount Horizon, Route 66, Taste of Westmont, The Amphitheater, The Flat Cats, The Forge, The Riviera Theater.

Break out your glass, steel, or beer bottle: This time on Shred With Shifty, we're sliding into glory with southern-rock great Derek Trucks, leader of the Derek Trucks Band, co-leader (along with wife Susan Tedeschi) of the Tedeschi Trucks Band, and, from 1999 to 2014, member of the Allman Brothers Band. Reared in Jacksonville, Florida, Trucks was born into rock 'n' roll: His uncle, Butch Trucks, was a founding member of the Allman Brothers Band, and from the time he was nine years old, Derek was playing and touring with blues and rock royalty, from Buddy Guy to Bob Dylan. Early on, he established himself as a prodigy on slide guitar, and in this interview from backstage in Kalamazoo, Michigan, Trucks explains why he's always stuck with his trusty Gibson SGs, and how he sets them up for both slide and regular playing. (He also details his custom string gauges.) Trucks analyzes and demonstrates his subtle but scorching solo on “Midnight in Harlem,” off of Tedeschi Trucks Band's acclaimed 2011 record, Revelator. In it, he highlights the influence of Indian classical music, and particularly sarod player Ali Akbar Khan, on his own playing. The lead is “melodic but with Indian-classical inflections,” flourishes that Trucks says are integral to his playing: It's a jazz and jam-band mentality of “dangling your feet over the edge of the cliff,” says Trucks, and going outside whatever mode you're playing in. Throughout the episode, Trucks details his live and studio set ups (“As direct as I can get it”), shares advice for learning slide and why he never uses a pick, and ponders what the future holds for collaborations with Warren Haynes.
