Dan is flying solo this week because Ellen is recovering from knee-replacement surgery. But fear not — she's behind the scenes making sure this episode gets recorded properly, and she edited what you are listening to. She'll be back on the air soon. Our guest is Rick Goldsmith, a veteran filmmaker who has taken a close look at the state of corporate journalism in America. His documentary "Stripped for Parts: American Journalism on the Brink" tells the story of Alden Global Capital, the secretive hedge fund that has bought up many of our greatest newspapers and stripped them of their real estate and slashed their newsrooms. He focuses on one of Alden's papers, The Denver Post, and the rise of The Colorado Sun, a digital startup begun by former Post journalists. The story of what happened in Colorado is also one that Ellen and I tell in our book, "What Works in Community News." The reason we're having Rick on now is that you'll be able to watch "Stripped for Parts" through December 31st for free on the PBS app, which you can access through Apple TV, Roku, Google Play and most smart TVs.  Dan has a Quick Take about Jay Rosen, who retired earlier this year from New York University and is now taking on a new challenge. Jay is probably best known to his younger followers as an incisive media critic. But his true passion, going back to the 1990s, is finding ways to involve members of the public in the production of journalism. Now he's doing it again — and it could have implications for local news.

In this episode, Paul Andrews breaks down the eight most common mistakes he sees beginner guitarists make and, most importantly, how you can avoid or fix them. If you feel like your guitar progress has stalled or you're unsure what's holding you back, this comprehensive guide will put you back on track. From practicing without a plan to quitting too soon, Paul covers it all, offering actionable advice and resources along the way.Key Topics Covered1. Practicing Without a PlanMany beginners “noodle” aimlessly, not making real progress.Solution: Structure your practice sessions, even if it's just five or ten minutes per skill.Resource: Practice plans available in the Resources section of the Beginner Guitar Academy dashboard.2. Skipping the BasicsJumping straight to fun riffs and songs without building strong foundational skills (like chord changes, picking, and strumming) slows your progress.Solution: Invest time in fundamental skills. They're the foundation for everything else you learn.3. Ignoring Rhythm and TimingFocusing on the right notes but not on playing them in time leads to unrecognisable music.Solution: Use a metronome or backing track from early on. Internalise the beat by tapping your foot or nodding your head.4. Avoiding Barre Chords and Hard ShapesMany skip tough chords (like barre or C chord) because they're challenging.Solution: Face the hard shapes in manageable steps—power chords, then mini-barres, then full barre chords.Resource: Check out the Power Chords and Barre Chords workshops in the Academy.5. Not Playing Complete SongsLearning only riffs and song parts can be fun, but it leaves you stuck.Solution: Commit to learning full songs!Beginner-friendly song suggestions:“Songbird” by Oasis“Knockin' on Heaven's Door” (Bob Dylan version)“Come As You Are” by Nirvana“Zombie” by The Cranberries“Seven Nation Army” by The White Stripes6. Building Bad Technique HabitsCommon issues include collapsing fingers, muted strings, and stiff strumming.Solution: Slow things down and focus on form. Recording yourself and seeking teacher feedback can help spot and fix these issues.7. Comparing Yourself to OthersSocial media or peer comparison can rob you of joy.Solution: Compare your progress only to your past self. Chart small, incremental improvements.8. Quitting Too SoonNinety per cent of beginners quit within the first year due to unrealistic expectations or a perceived lack of time.Solution: Consistency is key—just a few minutes a day leads to breakthrough progress.Community News & ResourcesSeptember Live Member Q&A: Recording now available in the Academy's dashboard (video and audio formats).Practice Plan Downloads: Find them in the Resources section to help you organise and structure your weekly practice.Workshops: “Get to Grips with Power Chords” and “Get to Grips with Barre Chords” are available to Academy members.Key TakeawaysMistakes are normal!
