We all wish we could win the lottery. I mean, who doesn't love the idea of a life-changing financial windfall? The chance to pursue your real passions, get all your loved ones out of debt, travel, just…not have to worry anymore? But for the tiny percentage of people who actually do win the lottery, against almost impossible odds, the reality often ends up a lot more complicated than they expect. According to the NY Daily News, about 70 percent of lottery winners end up flat broke within 7 years. Worse than that, some believe there's a curse attached to winning. Take the case of Jeffery Dampier, who won a 20 million dollar jackpot in the 90s, started a popcorn business, and ended up brutally murdered by his sister in law and her boyfriend. And we all remember Abraham Shakespeare from an earlier season of TCC, a man who used his lottery winnings to revitalize his community—until he was manipulated into signing over his fortune, then murdered by a scam artist named DeeDee Moore. These are just two examples of many. It's one of those “careful what you wish for” things—a lesson the people in this week's story had to learn the hard way. Join us for a true whodunnit, a twisting, turning story of ambition, deception, secrets and betrayal.Sources:https://www.the-sun.com/news/3890533/lotto-winner-fatally-injected-husband-squandered-cash/#:~:text=Joseph%20Roncaioli%2C%2072%2C%20was%20found,she%20split%20with%20her%20friend.&text=Prosecutors%20told%20his%20trial%20he,retirement%2C%20the%20Toronto%20Star%20reported.https://www.thestar.com/news/crime/2011/05/16/md_convicted_of_poisoning_wife_loses_appeal.htmlhttps://www.lottoanalyst.com/lottery-winner-ibi-roncaiolihttp://www.greatesthockeylegends.com/2017/09/legends-of-team-canada-stelio-zupancich.htmlInvestigation Discovery's "Your Number's Up," episode "Cruel Hand of Fate"Follow us, campers!Patreon (join to get all episodes ad-free, at least a day early, an extra episode a month, and a free sticker!): https://patreon.com/TrueCrimeCampfireFacebook: True Crime CampfireInstagram: https://gramha.net/profile/truecrimecampfire/19093397079Twitter: @TCCampfire https://twitter.com/TCCampfireEmail: truecrimecampfirepod@gmail.comMERCH! https://true-crime-campfire.myspreadshop.com/

Celebrating 25 years! From 1995-2020. Happy Anniversary to Bridge Nine Records! My guest on this episode is owner and founder, Chris Wrenn. We go back to the early 90's in Boston when he decided to create the label in order to simply help out. Being able to keep an independent record label up and running for 25 years(and still going)isn't an easy thing to pull off. From his first 7" to releasing way over 100 records to having everyone from Agnostic Front, Sick Of It All, H2O, Death Before Dishonor, American Nightmare, Ramallah, Terror, Cruel Hand, Slapshot, Ten Yard Fight and countless others on Bridge 9. From band talk to some funny shit talk about the very heated Yankees/Red Sox rivalry in the early to mid-2000's to cemeteries in Salem. Another great time doing this podcast. Congratulations once again for 25 years of Bridge Nine Records! Respect.
E72: As an audio engineer I always have to steal time with other engineers to talk on music and production. Today is someone I’ve loved the work of for awhile so it was awesome to chat. Kevin Billingslea records mostly out of the greater Portland, ME area and has backed artists like Lamb Of God, Vanna, Cruel Hand, Valley Heart, and so many others. We talk on getting what you put into your art, choosing the right things you need not for flash or charm but for purpose and function. Not needing the best place or gear to get going and what leveling up looks like so you aren’t chasing clients to the bottom. Imposter syndrome, amazing hidden Chipotle recipes, and band dad stories. You will find something for all creative entrepreneurs in here to stir your thoughts and strategy in what you love. In This Episode We Cover Watching others work Band dads are the best Outgrowing your space It’s not the tools it’s the fool Investing in the important things first Not the gear Big career benchmarks Professional relationships Lighting in a bottle moments How to keep energy in art after a long career Managing consistency If you won’t invest what you are doing, no one else will Never race to the bottom Only being you in your work, say no when you should Chipotle Quotes “ Geniuses, when your around them all you can really do is hope to zap every bit of wisdom you can from them.” - Kevin Billingslea “I’ve seen a lot of bands go into incredible studios and come out with garbage and I’ve seen a lot of bands go into squalor studios and come out with something that’s rippin’.” - Kevin Billingslea “What do I really need to make this happen? And sometimes it’s just an audio interface and a Mic in a room with ok acoustics.” - Host Dave Swillum “There’s no plug in that injects feel into a vocal take, it just doesn’t exist.” - Kevin Billingslea Kevin Billingslea Website & Links Website https://kevinbillingslea.com/ The Halo Studio http://thehalostudio.com/ Kevin’s Band Too Late The Hero https://www.facebook.com/toolatetheherome/ Insta @kevinbillingslea Kevin Billingslea Noted Resources & Artists Network! Valley Heart https://www.facebook.com/valleyheartma/ Kevin’s Secret Chipotle Recipe Burrito Get double wrapped because it doesn’t cost anything extra and why not? Get the white rice, the least healthy shit ever, but, that ship is well on it’s way Pinto Beans Steak: To get double meat, wait to tell them about your double meat order until after they’ve done the first scoop. If you tell them beforehand they will compensate their scoops. Corn salsa is acceptable Tomato salsa soaks everything else Sour cream If you like heat the red stuff is fine No lettuce because it’s just taking up space You can do guac if you want but Kevin is allergic to it Waking Up From Work Podcast Links Website www.wakingupfromwork.com Instagram/Twitter/Tik Tok @davewakeup Merch To Support Us! https://wakeup.itemorder.com/sale?fbclid=IwAR30nyVXdpFaax0mN0CRcC_mVjNzafbMo0spds82eoG-GMo01HG6Uq0dvzw Patreon (If you want to support the show check out our sweet offers for you) https://www.patreon.com/wakingupfromwork Facebook Community to connect to creatives https://www.facebook.com/groups/wakingupfromwork/about/ Email wakeupfromworkpodcast@gmail.com Youtube Channel https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCJeddF25VuWn8Eg3Fhy13fQ?view_as=subscriber For audio advice and more in depth music content from Dave www.crawlspaceaudio.com Dave’s Indie Rock Band Broadwing www.broadwingband.bandcamp.com

This week is another special conversation of the podcast - it’s also the firs to include THREE guests. Individually, I sat down with Joey Cahill, Jake Sulzer, and Dustin Watson to discuss their record labels. This was an idea that came to me one day when I coincidentally was planning to hang out with the three dudes one day and was like, “hey! wanna do my podcast?” Glad this episode could come together - granted, a day later than usual, but it’s a good one, so I hope you all dig it!6131 Records:Joey Cahill is a founder of 6131 Records, which began in California and is now based in Virginia -- yet, Joey lives in Boston! 6131 Records was chosen for this conversation because it’s a well-established label that has launched acts like Joyce Manner, Cruel Hand, Julien Baker, Touche Amore, and Culture Abuse. The label has evolved, turning out some fantastic new acts like Macseal, Late Bloomer, If you like the conversation, and the tunes (some Kindling for ya!), head over to 6131Records.com to learn more about the label and to pick up some tunes!Counter Intuitive Records:Jake Sulzer started Counter Intuitive Records a few years ago on a whim - he wound up growing the label into a new school emo/garage powerhouse. Jake was chosen for this conversation because his label has been growing exponentially to the point where he just recently obtained his official business license! The label launched the fantastic acts, Oso Oso, Mom Jeans, and Prince Daddy and the Hyena, and has put out some great releases from Retirement Party, Just Friend, oldsoul, and a re-issue of the epic State Lines album, “Hoffman Manor.” If you dig our conversation, check out counterintuitiverecords.com!Disposable America: Dustin Watson runs Disposable America, which is a DIY label out of Boston - out of his living room, no less. Dustin was chosen for this conversation because his label is pretty quaint and there aren’t many plans to explode it into anything too large. It’s a manageable-sized label that has put out tunes (primarily on cassette) from the likes of Horse Jumper of Love, Lillith, DUMP HIM, Soft Fangs, Infinity Girl, and halfsour. If you like what you heard in this conversation, visit disposable-america.com and get some tunes!ART OF SURVIVAL UPDATE:We've officially rebranded The Art of Survival and launched a revamping of our website - artissurvival.com!

On this episode, I speak with Scott Vogel, lead vocalist for Terror. This is one of my favorite episodes that I've ever recorded, because Scott is someone I've admired for quite some time - he's without question one of the best frontmen in the alternative music scene. We talked about: - The contrast between going out on shorter runs versus longer full U.S. tours - Bouncing back from neck surgery - Touring in a van consistently versus a band-wagon/bus - Giving advice to younger bands - The departure of bassist David Wood and addition of Chris Linkovich of Cruel Hand to the line-up and how that transition has been - Roadtripping for shows and how that has changed over the years - Multi-Cam full-sets uploaded to YouTube - Signing to Pure Noise Records, and when they’re going back to the studio and what producer they’re working with.

HOUSECLEANING/LISTENER QUESTION First race of the season is in the books “John and Kyle, Great to hear a new episode guys! My favorite show to date for sure. A question I've had for you guys that I've been wanting to ask for a while is whether or not either of you actually listen to music when putting in miles on the bike? I definitely refrain from plugging in when riding singletrack most importantly due to just being aware of other trail users, but when it comes to gravel or road riding, are tunes a necessary component for your training? Finally, thanks for the tip on Achilles! Super sweet stuff. Take care guys. Grant” RECORD REVIEW World Be Free – 'The AntiCircle' Released: February 5 2016 – Revelation Records World Be Free's story began in the fall of 2014, when Scott Vogel (Terror, Buried Alive), Joe Garlipp (Envy), Andrew Kline (Strife), and Sammy Siegler (Judge, CIV, Rival Schools) met monthly to write classicinfluenced, melodic and positive hardcore. All of this developed without a label, budget or any mention to the outside world. When Siegler scored some recording time at Hurley, they flew in Arthur Smilios (Gorilla Biscuits, CIV) to cover on bass and hustled into the studio. Vogel and Terror bandmate Nick Jett then tracked vocals at Jett's studio, passing the ball to Walter Schreifels (Rival Schools, Quicksand, Gorilla Biscuits) for one final guest spot. With their album finished and its release fast approaching, Top 5 – Primal Reaction Records. Something about these 5 records speaks to that dark place in your soul. Pure raw aggression and power.. UNBROKEN – Life Love Regret – 1994 New Age Records Life. Love. Regret. is everything that hardcore is. It is the heart, the soul, the sound, and the attitude. The music is loud and in your face, but most importantly, passion is put at the top. This album is a monument by a monolithic band. From the crushing riff and sinister notes at the beginning of "D4" to the ending feedback in the nine minute "Curtain." Breather Resist – Only In The Morning – March 25, 2003 Deathwish Inc Breather Resist formed in 2002 and recorded 8 songs, 4 of which were on handmade demos.

Known for their trademark nihilistic and dystopian lyrical themes, stark classic horror imagery and loud, abrasive live shows. Integrity – Those Who Fear Tomorrow – 1991 Overkill Records Integrity's For Those Who Fear Tomorrow is a hardcore juggernaut that has lurked in infamy for over 15 years. Recorded in 1991, For Those Who Fear Tomorrow is often credited as on of the first true metalcore" albums. While hardcore crossover bands like the Cro Mags and Corrosion of Conformity had existed before Integrity, few were prepared for the world Integrity brought to life with their debut album. FTWFT's razor sharp metallic edges, driving hardcore verses, and gloomy breakdowns set a stage for one of hardcore's most messianic and charismatic front men: Dwid Hellion. The album has been issued in close to 10 different editions and formats. It has never received proper distribution or promotion, but it has survived: a truly bastardized child of hardcore, metal, and a darkness of the soul.
