This week we continue following Night Demon on their epic North American trek supporting King Diamond and Overkill in fall 2024. The narrative resumes with a rare appearance in Indianapolis. Band and crew describe the benefits and pitfalls of performing at ornate old theaters that were not designed for 21st century heavy metal productions. You will learn how Night Demon paid tribute to the late, great Paul Di'Anno at this show, and will hear exclusive details about a recording session and potential future single release. From there, the tour proceeded to Louisville, with visits from friends in Savage Master and chiropractic care courtesy of the Rock Doc. As always, we bring you live clips from the performances and behind-the-scenes recollections of how each show went down.LINKSOld National Centre - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Old_National_CentreMagnetic Eye Records -https://magneticeyerecords.bandcamp.com/Louisville Palace -https://www.louisvillepalace.com/ Listen at nightdemon.net/podcast or anywhere you listen to podcasts!

Welcome to LIFTS, where we explore the future of fitness, wellness, and human performance. In this episode, hosts Matthew Januszek and Mohammed Iqbal are joined by Dr. Nestor Rodriguez for a deep dive into one of the biggest shifts happening across healthcare, fitness, and longevity: the move from reactive "sick care" to proactive performance medicine. For decades, healthcare systems have largely focused on treating illness after it appears. But a new model is beginning to emerge - one centred around prevention, optimisation, diagnostics, recovery, and long-term human performance. This conversation explores why consumers are becoming more proactive about their health, how wearable technology and biomarkers are reshaping the wellness landscape, and why the worlds of fitness, medicine, recovery, and longevity are starting to converge faster than ever before. Dr. Nestor Rodriguez explains why the future of healthcare may look very different from the systems we know today. As consumers gain access to more data through wearables, recovery tracking, blood testing, and AI-driven health insights, expectations around health and wellness are rapidly evolving. The discussion also examines the growing opportunity for fitness operators. As gyms continue evolving beyond exercise facilities into broader wellness and longevity platforms, operators may soon play a much larger role in preventative health, performance optimisation, and personalised wellness experiences. The episode also dives into the limitations of the traditional healthcare system, the growing demand for personalised medicine, and why the next era of wellness may be built around continuous optimisation rather than reactive treatment. In this episode, we cover: Why healthcare is shifting from "sick care" to performance medicine The rise of longevity, diagnostics, and preventative health How wearables and biomarkers are changing consumer behaviour Why fitness operators may become part of the healthcare ecosystem The future of personalised wellness and human performance

I made it this far into my life and decided NOW is a good time to start dunking my pizza in bleu cheese. Guess how my Hinge date went last weekend? It's. not just a new job; it's a lifestyle change! Yay! (That's always fun, at almost 50 years old) Don't ask famous cinematographers' sons about their….DYAD. It's looking more like the BLAND-alorian movie, isn't it? (Shit, I should've saved that pun for when I actually review it…) Converge played a free show in the parking lot at Epitaph, and Bokes & I went. The worst bagel experience I've ever had. (A monumental life event) I went to see Bruce play drums two nights in a row, then cooled my heels at the Comedy Store. It was a booze and junk food fueled weekend, mostly by accident. (But it was still fun)

Kollapses forsanger, den 39-årige sociolog Peter Clement Lund, ligger for døden. Han skal snart sige farvel til sin kone, deres tre børn og den musik han har elsket så højt. I dette særafsnit af Sort Søndag, er Anders Bøtter taget til Hospice Djursland, for at tale med Peter for allersidste gang. Og det blev en vigtig samtale der fejrer livet, dulmer sorgen, funderer over døden og hylder heavy-metal. For det er naturligvis Peter, der har udvalgt de fleste af podcastens sange. Derfor skal du høre musik med Rage Against The Machine fra Peters barndomsværelse, rives rundt til Converge der bla. blev soundtracket til tiden efter Peters ungdoms-stofmisbrug og svælge i Mastodons smukke storladne heavy-metal serenader. Men når Peter gør os alle klogere og fortæller om sin forskning i social psykologi, som har haft særligt fokus på hvordan vi mennesker håndterer død og sorg, så slår vi også vejen forbi stille intense numre af bla. Sigur Rós, Antony and the Johnsons, Iron & Wine og Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds. Tak fordi du lytter til "Sort Søndag". Del gerne denne udsendelse med alle du elsker. Værter: Anders Bøtter Medvirkende: Peter Clement Lund Lyddesign og klip: Emil Germod. Produceret af: Gizmo.

This episode comes straight out of a real-life meeting at Confluence.Something became unmistakably clear to me there — what it looks like when a community forms organically. Not managed. Not engineered. Not pushed into existence.But something that actually converges.Confluence itself is a living example of this. You can feel the difference when you're in it. People aren't being organized… they're finding each other.And that stands in sharp contrast to so many of the movements we see today — built, structured, and directed from the outside in.How Do You Know the Difference?There's a real distinction between:something that's growingand something that's being assembledIn this episode, we'll look at how to recognize that difference in real time.Because it's not always obvious… especially when engineered movements borrow the language and appearance of something real.Why Convergence Matters NowOrganic convergence may be the most important thing we can be doing right now.You can't force and engineer connection or put people into structures.But allowing something real to form through clarity, resonance, and shared seeing, that's where the real magic happens.Special Guest: Dawn LesterI'm joined by Dawn Lester, who I had the pleasure of meeting in person at Confluence. Here's our cosmic and unexpected meeting in the San Antonio airport!!Dawn is a master at understanding how things actually come together. She's best known for her writing and research in the alternative health arenas, but she has a gift for convergence — growing community through truth and alignment.In this episode we'll explore:what she sees about real vs engineered communityhow convergence happens (and how it doesn't)and what makes something hold without being forcedIt's subtle and easy to miss… until you see it and can't un-see it.ConvergeIt's what happens naturally and organically.

On this episode, Pete and Julie welcome payroll and compensation expert and practitioner, Bri Mullens, to the show to discuss the convergence of payroll, compensation, benefits, and total rewards.  Bri shares how an accounting background led to a career in payroll and why the key ingredients that kept her there were equal parts numbers, compliance, and real human impact. The conversation covers why aligning payroll with compensation and benefits can be a strategic unlock, especially as pay transparency laws accelerate, and employees expect clearer answers to how, why and what they are paid.   Bri breaks down how she's using market data, partnering closely with HR, and rolling out total compensation letters to help employees understand the full value of their rewards package and provide the transparency that builds trust.  They also discuss modern pay experience enablers such as earned wage access (EWA), the payroll “latency” challenge, and financial wellness. Plus, a practical look at how HR and compensation teams are using AI today without compromising sensitive employee data.   Connect with Bri: https://www.linkedin.com/in/brianamullens/ Connect with the show: LinkedIn:  http://linkedin.com/company/hr-payroll-2-0 X: @HRPayroll2_0  X: @PeteTiliakos  X: @JulieFer_HR BlueSky: @hrpayroll2o.bsky.social YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@HRPAYROLL2_0  WRKDefined Podcast Network: https://wrkdefined.com/podcast/hr-payroll-20  Thank you to our marquee sponsors for powering the HR & Payroll 2.0 podcast forward!  G-P ‘Globalization Partners': https://www.globalization-partners.com/ OneSource Virtual: https://hubs.ly/Q03YFNR90 Zoho: https://www.zoho.com/press.html Thank you to our ‘wizard behind the curtain' and show producer Ryan Kielma: https://www.linkedin.com/in/ryan-kielma/

Send us Fan MailThe Heavy Music Collective is stepping up for artists, and at the same time, Converge is pushing forward creatively with yet another powerful release. In this episode, we connect with Jeff Price (The Heavy Music Collective) and Ben Koller of Converge to break down both the business and the art shaping heavy music in 2026.Converge has officially announced their second full-length album of the year, Hum of Hurt, arriving June 5, 2026 via Deathwish Inc. and Epitaph Records. The band also dropped the intense and emotionally charged title track, diving deep into the concept of “The Hum” — a haunting idea imagined as the collective frequency of human suffering.Vocalist Jacob Bannon describes the album as a raw and exposed reflection of the human condition, distinct from its 2026 predecessor Love Is Not Enough. While that record leaned more metal, Hum of Hurt explores a more emotional hardcore direction, delivering one of the most dynamic and vulnerable releases in Converge's career.Recorded and mixed by Kurt Ballou at God City Studios, the album also features visually striking artwork created in collaboration with Thomas Hooper, blending themes of chaos, elemental forces, and internal struggle.At the same time, Ben Koller is helping lead a major shift in the music industry with the launch of the Heavy Music Collective — a new initiative alongside Jeff Price designed to help artists recover lost streaming royalties and better understand how they get paid.Too often, songwriters miss out on what's known as “black box” royalties — unclaimed money from platforms like Spotify, Apple Music, and YouTube. The Heavy Music Collective works directly with these platforms to track down and recover those earnings while also educating artists on how to protect their rights moving forward.Powered by Word Collections, the initiative represents a wide range of heavy artists and is built to support the entire spectrum of the genre — from hardcore and metalcore to doom, sludge, and beyond.If you're a fan of heavy music, an independent artist, or someone trying to understand the realities of today's music business — this is a must-watch.Subscribe for more conversations with the artists and industry voices shaping the future of music.#Converge #BenKoller #HeavyMusicCollective #HumOfHurt #Metal #Hardcore #MusicIndustry #StreamingRoyalties #JeffPrice #TheBarnMediawww.BetterHelp.com/TheBarnhttp://www.betterhelp.com/TheBarn http://www.betterhelp.com/TheBarnThis episode is sponsored by www.betterhelp.com/TheBarn and brought to you as always by The Barn Media Group.   YOUTUBE https://www.youtube.com/@TheBarnPodcastNetworkSPOTIFY https://open.spotify.com/show/09neXeCS8I0U8OZJroUGd4?si=2f9b8dfa5d2c4504APPLE https://podcasts.apple.com/podcast/id1625411141I HEART RADIO https://www.iheart.com/podcast/97160034/AMAZON https://music.amazon.com/podcasts/7aff7d00-c41b-4154-94cf-221a808e3595/the-barn

DL and Evil Jimmy go deep on the best and worst albums of 2001 — a year that somehow produced Gorillaz's self-titled debut, The Strokes' Is This It, System of a Down's Toxicity, Tool's Lateralus, Jay-Z's The Blueprint, and Jimmy Eat World's Bleed American all at once.They build a collective top 10, trading picks and hot takes: Gorillaz at number one, Toxicity at two, Is This It at three — plus arguments for Opeth's Blackwater Park, Converge's Jane Doe, Tool's Lateralus, Muse's Origin of Symmetry, Jay-Z's The Blueprint, White Stripes' White Blood Cells, and Neurosis rounding out the list.Along the way: why Nickelback and Creed represent everything wrong with 2001 mainstream rock, the case for Built to Spill's Ancient Melodies of the Future, Wilco's Yankee Hotel Foxtrot, the Toadies' Hell Below Stars Above, Ben Folds' Rockin' the Suburbs, Tenacious D's self-titled, and Tupac's Until the End of Time. Plus favorite songs of the year, a Stone Temple Pilots deep cut, Andrew W.K.'s She Is Beautiful, and a Clint Eastwood / Morgan Freeman life philosophy detour courtesy of the Gorillaz track.Part of Verse Chorus Verse's year-by-year and album-by-album music coverage.2001 music,Gorillaz,The Strokes,System of a Down,Tool,Jay-Z Blueprint,Jimmy Eat World,album rankings,year in music,indie rock,metal,music podcast

This week, we're talking about two things we think are quite interesting. First off, we chat about the early mathcore/metalcore band Drowningman and reflect on why they never quite reached the heights of their peers, such as Converge and The Dillinger Escape Plan—bands they often found themselves touring with in the late 90s and early 00s.While that story is compelling in itself, Drowningman can also count themselves among the artists who tried to sabotage a contractual obligation to a record label. As the story goes, they hit the studio with Kurt Ballou (Converge, God City Studios) to record a very weird album, tentatively titled Best Album Ever. The record was never officially released; it was allegedly created with the sole intention of being purposefully bad in order to satisfy, and terminate, their two-album contract with Revelation Records. In the end it never saw the light of day.This got us thinking about other artists who have tried to escape their contractual obligations. We use this lens to take a wee sojourn into the annals of music history, unearthing stories of several big-name artists who tried, and sometimes succeeded, in doing something similar.We hope you enjoy!

Episode 464, including tracks from On the Cinder, The Cheats, Wayward Brigade, General Chaos, DFL, Total Massacre, Shillely, Converge, Blitz, Kate LeDeuce, and The Revivalists. Eric is back. The episode is loaded with a bunch of new music shared with us, a couple great albums, and wrap up the show with a Country track and a Rock track.

Formed by frontman Luc Richards and guitarist Davis Haley, Nashville crossover thrash quintet Waxed is now a full cadre with Will Alley on bass, Noel Richards on guitar, and Ian Sundstrom on drums.

This week, we're excited to welcome a relative newcomer, but certainly no slouch, to menswear into the studio, Ethan Martin. A recovering sneakerhead, if you will, and a huge fan of cycling and Uncle Ralph, we had a great conversation about what brought him into the ranks of clothing aficionados's, modern “extreme” sports, a love for old Armani, how AI is utter bullshit, catching the heavy music bug, searching for the coolest Ralph Lauren garments, travel hacks, and a whole lot more!

Brandon Sedloff sits down with Nick Shalek to explore the evolution of venture investing, the rise of AI, and the long-term implications of tokenization across global markets. Nick shares his journey from the Yale Investment Office to co-founding Ribbit Capital, offering a behind-the-scenes look at how the firm approaches conviction, concentration, and founder partnerships. The conversation dives deep into how AI is reshaping company building, why software alone is no longer a sufficient moat, and how investors are thinking about the intersection of money, data, and power. Nick also unpacks the concept of tokenization and what it means for the future of financial systems and asset ownership. We discuss: Nick's path from Yale to Ribbit Capital and the lessons that shaped his investing philosophy Why small, high-conviction portfolios drive better long-term venture outcomes How AI is accelerating the power of individuals and reshaping company formation The shift from software as a product to software as a complement to deeper moats What tokenization really means and how it could redefine global access to assets Links: Ribbit Capital - https://www.ribbitcap.com/ Nick on LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/nickshalek/ Brandon on LinkedIn - ⁠https://www.linkedin.com/in/bsedloff/⁠ Juniper Square - ⁠https://www.junipersquare.com/⁠ Topics: (00:00:00) - Intro(00:03:37) - Austin's career and background(00:10:53) - Austin's time at the Yale Investment Office(00:17:05) - The evolution of data centers(00:20:27) - Austin's time at Stanford and Facebook(00:26:36) - The state of Ribbit Capital today(00:31:37) - Thoughts on AI and its impact on how society will do business(00:36:34) - Software investing thesis(00:39:46) - How leaders are evolving their companies to lean into the AI revolution(00:45:24) - Tokenization and crypto infrastructure

With this wild group of 7 stories, and one from CENCOM, I needed to also have a subtitle of "these three key points: "Paper vs. Physical: The Fractured Oil Market""When Energy Meets Geopolitics: A Perfect Storm""The Hidden Risks in America's Power Infrastructure"1. Oil and Energy MarketsThe discussion delves into the complexities of oil pricing, distinguishing between paper oil prices (futures contracts) and physical delivery prices. There's significant focus on tanker traffic, oil flows to the U.S. and California, and analysis of energy-related ETFs and stock performance in the sector.2. Geopolitical Tensions and Energy SecurityA major theme is the situation surrounding the Strait of Hormuz, a critical chokepoint for global oil supply. The conversation includes concerns about potential closure, Iran's alleged inability to fully reopen it due to lost mine maps, and the potential involvement of U.S. military intervention. These geopolitical issues directly impact global energy markets and supply chains.3. U.S. Power Grid Infrastructure ChallengesThe transcript highlights serious vulnerabilities in America's aging power grid, with a significant portion of transformers operating beyond their expected lifespan. There's particular concern about the vulnerability of the 18 major grid interconnects to potential sabotage or cyberattacks.4. Energy Policy and RegulationDiscussion includes the need to redefine how we calculate the levelized cost of energy, particularly to better account for renewable energy sources. There are also mentions of potential policy actions by the Trump administration regarding energy issues.5. Financial and Investment PerspectivesThe transcript covers stock performance and investment opportunities in the energy sector, including major companies like Chevron and ExxonMobil, as well as how climate-focused and ESG investors are navigating market volatility.1.The Paper Price of Oil is About to Get Hit with Reality and Converge with the Delivery Price of Oil2.NYT Writes Iran Can't Open the Mines Because they Can't Find Them: What This Means for the World's Oil Crisis3.U.S. Begins Clearing the Strait of Hormuz with Military Ships Passing Through4.$2B Investment Drives Expansion of U.S.-Canada Oil Flows5.TAL Pipeline Connecting Germany and Italy May Have Been Sabotaged6.Iran War Fuels Rush to Energy ETFs and Oil Stocks.

Don and Dude close out March Metal Madness by sinking into two landmark heavy records that pushed their corners of metal into darker, more ambitious territory. Thrash's classic second wave leap forward sits alongside metalcore's underground breakthrough as the guys unpack how each band leveled up in songwriting, sound, and emotional weight.The AlbumsMetallica – Ride the Lightning (1984) Bay Area thrash upstarts sharpen their attack with tighter writing, darker themes, and a leap in dynamics, trading garage band scrappiness for a colder, more deliberate vision of heavy music that still hits like a live wire.Converge – Jane Doe (2001) Massachusetts lifers detonate metalcore and rebuild it as one long breakup document, twisting hardcore, metal, and noise into a suffocating, strangely beautiful storm where every scream and cymbal crash feels like a frayed nerve.Diggin' AlbumsAngine de Poitrine – Vol. II (2026) Quebec experimental rock duo stretch microtonal guitars, looping grooves, and strange persona driven theatrics into woozy, hypnotic pieces that feel like math rock beamed in from another frequency.Power Trip – Nightmare Logic (2017) Dallas crossover crushers pack hardcore energy, classic thrash riffing, and fiercely political bark into a compact half hour that feels like a greatest hits reel for modern pit music.Charlie Puth – Whatever's Clever! (2026) Pop craftsman leans into wordy hooks, gleaming keys, and hyper detailed production while poking at online romance and self aware fame in songs that slide between winking brightness and late night reflection.Robyn Hitchcock – The Confuser (2026) Psychedelic elder statesman plugs in for a jangly, rock forward set that threads surreal imagery, dry humor, and unexpectedly tender ballads into something that plays like a sly mission statement for his current era.Follow & Support Follow the show on Instagram, Facebook, Threads, and Bluesky @albumnerds, and support by subscribing, rating, reviewing, and sharing.“Heavy metal is a universal energy, it's the sound of a volcano.

This week in the studio, we had an incredibly fun chat with a ridiculously rad dude, stellar musician, and the man with “the best jeans in hardcore,” Nate Newton. We talked about his introduction to both clothing and music at an early age, admiring the style of country and western musicians, buying old Levi's, band shirts, cast iron skillets, skateboarding and its influence, how to wear your clothes, online clothing forums, what he's wearing in the Apocalypse, and so much more.

Guest Bill Whiteside abandoned a 30-year career in software sales to devote his time to a story that he started researching to keep his mind engaged during his business travels. Intrigued by a little-known incident from early in Winston Churchill's first term as Britain's Prime Minister, this diversion evolved into an obsession as he dug into the story of a controversial and catastrophic clash between the British and French Navies from multiple angles. The more he learned, the more it became a book he just had to write. That book, Operation Catapult: Winston Churchill and the British Attack on the French Navy at Mers-el-Kébir, was published by the U.S. Naval Institute Press in March 2026. Summary In this episode, Jeff talks with author Bill Whiteside about his new book, Operation Catapult, which describes a little-known but dramatic episode early in World War II. Whiteside explains that after France fell to Germany in May 1940, British Prime Minister Winston Churchill feared that the powerful French fleet might fall into Nazi hands. Determined to prevent this strategic disaster, Churchill ordered the British Navy to confront the French fleet anchored at Mers-el-Kébir in Algeria. When negotiations failed, British ships opened fire on their former allies, killing nearly 1,300 French sailors. Whiteside describes how the story captivated him because it reveals the moral complexity and human drama behind major historical decisions. Rather than presenting events as simple or inevitable, his research shows how Churchill agonized over the decision, how British officers struggled with the prospect of attacking friends, and how individual personalities shaped the outcome. Whiteside emphasizes that history becomes compelling when readers see historical figures as people—leaders balancing duty, fear, loyalty, and uncertainty in moments of crisis. The conversation also explores Whiteside's research process as a non-professional historian. Drawing on archives in the U.K. and California, original letters, and memoirs, he reconstructed the perspectives of both British and French participants. Influenced by narrative historians like Laura Hillenbrand and Rick Atkinson, Whiteside has crafted a fast-moving, character-driven account. Ultimately, the book explores leadership under extreme pressure and invites readers to reconsider a controversial decision that may have helped ensure Britain's survival during one of the war's most vulnerable moments. The Essential Point Whiteside argues that history becomes truly meaningful when we move beyond headlines and dates to understand the human decisions, personalities, and moral dilemmas that shape events.
