Drex and Lisa pull up a chair with local historian Frank Hilton for a deep dive into the stories that built Brownwood—brick by brick, stage by stage. From early playhouses and vaudeville nights to the rise (and occasional fall) of beloved venues like the Lyric Theatre, this episode traces how performance spaces helped shape the town's identity.

For years, the Crypto Hipster Podcast documented builders across the digital economy.But after more than 580 conversations, certain discussions stayed with me long after the recordings ended.Not because they were the loudest.Not because they generated the most views.And not because they were attached to the biggest market caps.They stayed with me because they revealed something deeper underneath the industry itself.In this solo episode, I explain the origins of Crypto Hipster's Curtain Calls and why four specific conversations became the foundation for my first Curtain Calls book, Signals Through the Noise.This is not a “best of” compilation.It is an attempt to interpret the patterns, tensions, contradictions, and human questions hiding underneath years of crypto narratives, market cycles, and technological change.Topics include:• The evolution from guest showcases to interpretation• Borrowed audiences vs. real audiences• Why polished talking points often destroy signal• What I learned during my apprenticeship at The Digital Economist• Systems, sovereignty, trust, identity, and human behavior• Why the archive itself began telling a larger storyThis episode marks the next evolution of my solo format:less performance, more synthesis.Signals Through the Noise is available now as part of Crypto Hipster's Curtain Calls.
On the review show this week: critics Muriel Zagha and Tahmima Anam review Francois Ozon's film The Stranger., based on the Albert Camus novel which has often been described as unfilmable.Amitav Ghosh's novel Ghost Eye, set in India and dealing with parallel timelines, multiple global locations, environmental catastrophe and a young girl with mysterious powers. Jim Jarmusch's latest film Father Mother Sister Brother won the Golden Lion award at Venice. Are our critics won over?Plus, is it ok for theatre audiences to take pictures at curtain calls? Following Lesley Manville's complaints on last week's Front Row, Tom Sutcliffe debates the issue with theatre critics David Benedict and Kate Maltby. Presenter: Tom Sutcliffe Producer: Oliver Jones

The celestial stage is shifting — and the transitions happening this week are anything but ordinary. First, eclipse season finally exhales its last breath with the New Moon in Pisces, closing a chapter of intensity and revelation. Then, Mercury retrograde takes its bow, but not quietly — the planet of communication parks itself directly on the North Node for a full seven days, turning the end of the scramble into a portal of destiny-charged conversations and long-awaited clarity. And just when you think the week couldn't hold more magic, Pisces season surrenders to Aries as the Sun strides into the Ram's bold territory — landing squarely on the now-legendary point of Saturn and Neptune's great conjunction. Old dreams meet new fire. The fog lifts. Something begins. Endings, yes — but the kind that feel like the universe finally exhaling and inhaling at the same time. Tune into The Golden Astrologer Podcast and hear all about it.
