En '99, une bande d'énervés menée par un certain Fred Durst, explose avec un album qui va redéfinir la fusion entre rap et métal. Son nom ? Significant Other. Si le nu-metal avait déjà montré les crocs avec Korn et Deftones, Limp Bizkit va le transformer en un phénomène de masse. Car la formule est explosive : un son lourd, des riffs accrocheurs et des gros beats hip-hop. Avec des titres comme Nookie, Break Stuff, N 2Gether now, ou Re-Arranged, Significant Other va rapidement devenir l'hymne d'une génération en quête de rébellion. Le succès de Limp Bizkit est immense. Autant vénéré que détesté, le groupe va pourtant se mettre une partie de l'industrie à dos, et la figure de Fred Durst, meneur arrogant, provocateur et parfois excessif, continue de diviser encore aujourd'hui.On vous raconte la success story de Limp Bizkit avec Olivia, Greg nous emmène en studio pour les coulisses de l'enregistrement à Hollywood et Fanny décrypte le clip filmé en mode guerilla de "Nookie" les amis !Crédits :Générique : Dr Alban "Sing Hallelujah"Titres écoutés dans l'émission : "Intro", "Just Like This", "Nookie", "Break Stuff", "Re-Arranged", "I'm Broke", "Nobody Like You" (feat.

Further discussions highlight: • The panel's experiences with the F1 movie in IMAX, praising its immersive qualities and its educational insight into the sport. • A new nostalgic VHS-styled app, “Cassette,” for organizing and replaying old videos. • The security-focused vault app “Access,” alternative to 1Password, with analysis of its privacy, encryption, and use cases. • Apple Card's satisfaction ratings and comparison to other credit cards according to the latest JD Power survey. • The upcoming Apple Arcade September lineup, featuring NFL Retro Bowl 26 and Jeopardy Daily, which stirs memories and excitement for mobile gaming. • Updates about Netflix's redesign for tvOS and the implications for viewing convenience.

My guest today on the Online for Authors podcast is Roni Robbins, author of the book Hands of Gold. Hands of Gold capitalizes on Roni Robbins' nearly four decades as a published writer: a staff reporter for daily and weekly newspapers; a freelancer for national, regional, and digital publications. She is currently a freelance reporter for The Atlanta Journal-Constitution and Medscape/WebMD, where she was previously an editor after serving as associate editor of the Atlanta Jewish Times. Hands of Gold won, among others, the 2023 International Book Awards for multicultural fiction and the 2023 Global Book Awards gold medal for biographical-survival. In addition to the fiction awards, Robbins won three Simon Rockower Awards for Jewish journalism, including an investigative piece about Jewish seniors who feel “Out of Touch” in nursing homes. Hands of Gold begins and ends in a nursing home. Selected as a touring author with the prestigious Jewish Book Council, Robbins appeared in one of the nation's largest Jewish book festivals. Hands of Gold consistently ranks high on Amazon's bestseller lists for biographical literary fiction and Holocaust biographies. In my book review, I stated Hands of Gold is an amazing Jewish historical fiction. According to Roni, the story is loosely based on her Hungarian grandfather, but rather than write a family memoir, she chose to write a historical fiction about Sam Fox. We meet Sam, first at his dying wife's side, and then travel back to see him as a young boy in Hungary at the turn of the 20th century. Sam's life is never easy. From Jewish hardships in the old country, to fleeing from Hungarian conscription, to stealing into first Canada, and then the US, to illness and poverty, Sam figures out how to find joy in a life that continuously throws him lemons. And now, after 65 years of marriage, his dying wife, Hannah, tasks him with telling their children their parents' real history - with all the secrets - even secrets they have kept from one another. This story is a wonderful family saga, filled with Jewish history and culture, determination, and religion. I found the details fascinating and often wondered which parts were true family history and which were merely the figment of Roni's imagination. I loved the book and believe you will, too!

Guest and HostGuest: Regan Sommer McCoy, Chief Curator of Mixtape Museum | Website: https://sommer.nyc/Host: Sean Martin, Co-Founder at ITSPmagazine and Host of Redefining CyberSecurity Podcast & Music Evolves Podcast | Website: https://www.seanmartin.com/Show NotesIn this episode of Music Evolves, host Sean Martin connects with Sommer McCoy, founder of the Mixtape Museum, to explore how a simple cassette tape became a cultural vehicle for creativity, connection, and entrepreneurship—especially within hip hop. Sommer's journey starts with managing hip hop artists like the Clipse, where a label dispute revealed the real power of mixtapes as grassroots distribution tools when the industry's gatekeepers were roadblocks.Sommer describes mixtapes as more than just homemade compilations; they are living archives of personal and collective history. From recording DJ sets off the radio to carefully curating tapes for summer camp, these stories form a thread that binds generations. Through the Mixtape Museum, Sommer captures not only the tapes themselves but also the hidden data inside—the handwritten J-cards, the audio quality that degrades with each copy, and the layers of social exchange that gave rise to underground music scenes.What's striking is that the Mixtape Museum does not seek to own every cassette but instead to document, digitize, and study them. Sommer, a database manager by day, focuses on preserving the stories and metadata behind each tape, spotlighting the artists, DJs, collectors, and communities that sustained the mixtape era. Supported by a Grammy Preservation Grant, she's already digitized dozens of tapes while helping other collectors understand how to safeguard their archives.The conversation touches on how mixtapes laid the groundwork for today's playlists and streaming culture—yet today's digital curation lacks the physical, handcrafted artistry that made each cassette unique. Sommer's mission is to encourage collectors and students alike to look deeper: to uncover forgotten shoebox treasures in attics, to share memories, and to research how these tapes shaped music and culture long before social algorithms took over.At its heart, the Mixtape Museum is an open invitation to honor the past while inspiring new ways to think about music's role in documenting who we are. For Sommer, each cassette holds more than songs—it holds a memory worth saving.SponsorsAre you interested in sponsoring this show or placing an ad in the podcast?Sponsorship

Today's guest is a musical architect whose fingerprints are on some of the most emotionally resonant and sonically rich records of the last decade. He's not the loudest in the room—but when he's in the studio, every note, every tone, every beat matters. A multi-instrumentalist, songwriter, and producer with an unmatched intuition, he brings out the soul in every song, guiding artists to their most authentic performances. From Grammy-winning collaborations with Kacey Musgraves to shaping records across indie, country, rock, and beyond, he's the quiet force behind the soundtracks to our lives. All the way from Nashville, Tennessee, this master of nuance proves that subtlety can be a superpower.

From Cassette Tapes and Phrasebooks to AI Real-Time Translations — Machines Can Now Speak for Us, But We're Losing the Art of Understanding Each Other May 21, 2025A new transmission from Musing On Society and Technology Newsletter, by Marco CiappelliThere's this thing I've dreamed about since I was a kid.No, it wasn't flying cars. Or robot butlers (although I wouldn't mind one to fold the laundry). It was this: having a real conversation with someone — anyone — in their own language, and actually understanding each other.And now… here we are.Reference: Google brings live translation to Meet, starting with Spanish. https://www.engadget.com/apps/google-brings-live-translation-to-meet-starting-with-spanish-174549788.htmlGoogle just rolled out live AI-powered translation in Google Meet, starting with Spanish. I watched the demo video, and for a moment, I felt like I was 16 again, staring at the future with wide eyes and messy hair.It worked. It was seamless. Flawless. Magical.And then — drumroll, please — it sucked!Like… really, existentially, beautifully sucked.Let me explain.I'm a proud member of Gen X. I grew up with cassette tapes and Walkmans, boomboxes and mixtapes, floppy disks and Commodore 64s, reel-to-reel players and VHS decks, rotary phones and answering machines. I felt language — through static, rewinds, and hiss.Yes, I had to wait FOREVER to hit Play and Record, at the exact right moment, tape songs off the radio onto a Maxell, label it by hand, and rewind it with a pencil when the player chewed it up.I memorized long-distance dialing codes. I waited weeks for a letter to arrive from a pen pal abroad, reading every word like it was a treasure map.That wasn't just communication. That was connection.Then came the shift.I didn't miss the digital train — I jumped on early, with curiosity in one hand and a dial-up modem in the other.Early internet. Mac OS. My first email address felt like a passport to a new dimension. I spent hours navigating the World Wide Web like a digital backpacker — discovering strange forums, pixelated cities, and text-based adventures in a binary world that felt limitless.I said goodbye to analog tools, but never to analog thinking.So what is the connection with learning languages?Well, here's the thing: exploring the internet felt a lot like learning a new language. You weren't just reading text — you were decoding a culture. You learned how people joked. How they argued. How they shared, paused, or replied with silence. You picked up on the tone behind a blinking cursor, or the vibe of a forum thread.Similarly, when you learn a language, you're not just learning words — you're decoding an entire world. It's not about the words themselves — it's about the world they build. You're learning gestures. Food. Humor. Social cues. Sarcasm. The way someone raises an eyebrow, or says “sure” when they mean “no.”You're learning a culture's operating system, not just its interface. AI translation skips that. It gets you the data, but not the depth. It's like getting the punchline without ever hearing the setup.And yes, I use AI to clean up my writing. To bounce translations between English and Italian when I'm juggling stories. But I still read both versions. I still feel both versions. I'm picky — I fight with my AI counterpart to get it right. To make it feel the way I feel it. To make you feel it, too. Even now.I still think in analog, even when I'm living in digital.So when I watched that Google video, I realized:We're not just gaining a tool. We're at risk of losing something deeply human — the messy, awkward, beautiful process of actually trying to understand someone who moves through the world in a different language — one that can't be auto-translated.Because sometimes it's better to speak broken English with a Japanese friend and a Danish colleague — laughing through cultural confusion — than to have a perfectly translated conversation where nothing truly connects.This isn't just about language. It's about every tool we create that promises to “translate” life. Every app, every platform, every shortcut that promises understanding without effort.It's not the digital that scares me. I use it. I live in it. I am it, in many ways. It's the illusion of completion that scares me.The moment we think the transformation is done — the moment we say “we don't need to learn that anymore” — that's the moment we stop being human.We don't live in 0s and 1s. We live in the in-between. The gray. The glitch. The hybrid.So yeah, cheers to AI-powered translation, but maybe keep your Walkman nearby, your phrasebook in your bag — and your curiosity even closer.Go explore the world. Learn a few words in a new language. Mispronounce them. Get them wrong. Laugh about it. People will appreciate your effort far more than your fancy iPhone.Alla prossima,— Marco
