Letters beat emails for trustworthiness. A gullible skeptic reflects on navigating trust in a 50-year marriage, and the energy cost of distrust.

I miss letters. I send cards thanking my guests for their participation. People universally appreciate getting something via snail mail. But cards aren't letters. They're preformatted notes, where I just change the image and the name. For giggles, I looked back at my very first blog post, July 31, 2012. It was a paragraph, a letter of sorts, short and simple, Improv and Best Health. It's taking me longer to produce each episode. So, no more frequently than once a month. So, why not a letter, short and sweet, from time to time? Let's start with trust. A letter feels more trustworthy than an email or a tweet. It's signed; a person who writes a letter really wants to communicate and thinks about what they're saying. So, perhaps, not a troll, more trustworthy. I always open letters. My immediate, momentary, default reaction to almost anything is trust. My kids say I'm gullible. My next instant reaction is skepticism. I think about what's not true about whatever. ‘AI is the solution to everything.' What do you mean, everything? What is AI anyway? Like that. I've been married for 50 years because at our core, my wife and I trust each other. We disagree, we misunderstand, we anger, I sulk. Yet we trust. On the other hand, I make stuff up. I misremember, create a story, and if it serves my purposes, stick with it or modify it as needed. My wife and grandkids are my fact-checkers. Still, we trust each other. In my personal life, trust isn't an on-or-off switch, all or nothing. Well, not usually. It's a matter of degree; it's about something. I trust that I can count on you to be there for me, unless you can't. I trust that you'll return my call, unless you're hurt, don't feel like it, or missed it. Distrust sucks energy; be more careful with my words, self-censor, close my heart and mind. I don't expect to trust everybody or everything. When I do trust, it's priceless. Thanks for listening, I'll be back.

The comedian Fred Armisen has a thing for sound. He's a former punk musician and a master of accents, and he is now releasing a new album of sound effects. “I was lamenting that there aren't sound-effects albums in our lives as much,” he tells Michael Schulman. “I feel like they just used to exist more or they were more present. . . . And instead of just, you know, taking out my phone and just recording stuff, I wanted to treat it properly. Like, let me go to a recording studio and really do it. Let me try to mimic some things that I've heard before.” The result, “100 Sound Effects,” comes out this month on the venerable indie label Drag City. The track titles are themselves punch lines: “Guitar Tuned but Still Somehow Out of Tune,” “Supportive Booing at a Speech,” “Obligatory Applause at a Speech,” and “Terrified Audience at an Authoritarian Nation Official Event.” Talking about the importance of paying attention to the auditory world, Armisen and Schulman went out to record some classic sounds of New York City—and what they couldn't find they faked.This segment was produced with assistance from John DeLore.

Baxie talks to legendary drummer Bruce Smith. Since 1979, Bruce has played with the insanely influential post-punk band The Pop Group, Public Image Ltd. with John Lydon, and The Slits. He's also played with Terrance Trent Darby, The The, and Bjork as well! Bruce is currently involved with Ashes and Diamonds—the incredible Super Group with Daniel Ash from Bauhaus, Tones on Tail, and Love and Rockets, and Sade's bass player Paul Denman. After seven years together and loads of interruptions and restarts, their debut album “Ashes and Diamonds and Forever” is finally getting its long overdue release (10/31/25). The final result is a record that Bruce calls “the most satisfying” of his career! Just brilliant!

Hey guys—so I've been deep into working on the second book, which has me going back through a bunch of the older conversations. One that really stood out again was with Steve Goold. If you don't know, Steve is actually the Steve of Steve's Donut. He's also played with Sara Bareilles, Owl City, Mat Kearney, and Scary Pockets, to name a few. But more than the resume, I was reminded how insightful he is. There's this part where he talks about there being no neutral notes—like, every note carries weight, it's never just filler. That idea has been rattling around in my head ever since I revisited the chat. Steve just put out his first release under his own name, a live recording called Solo Improvisations On Drumset, and you can watch the whole thing on YouTube HERE.

On this BONUS of CASCADE OF HISTORY, Feliks Banel digs into the "field tape archives" for his 2017 conversation with the late Jerry Allison, Rock and Roll Hall of Fame drummer for Buddy Holly and The Crickets, about the band's only visit to Seattle in October 1957. Mr. Allison passed away in 2022 at age 82. As Feliks says in the intro, "I confess, this is a bit of fan-boy interview, and the sound is on the somewhat sketchy side. The main goal was to gather Mr. Allison's recollections of the Crickets' one and only visit to Seattle in October 1957, but we also jumped around a bit, topically speaking. I like to think I'm a better interviewer now than I was in 2017. While that may or may not be true, I definitely have better recording gear." CASCADE OF HISTORY is broadcast LIVE most Sunday nights at 8pm Pacific Time via SPACE 101.1 FM in Seattle and gallantly streams everywhere via www.space101fm.org. The radio station broadcasts from studios at historic Magnuson Park – located in the former Master-at-Arms' quarters in the old Sand Point Naval Air Station - on the shores of Lake Washington in Seattle.

Send us a textEver wonder what happens when a musician's most precious tool—their hearing—begins to fade? Moe Jerant, founding member of the Large Flowerheads and a professional drummer for over 20 years, takes us through her remarkable 15-year journey with hearing technology that saved her career and transformed her life.The wake-up call came unexpectedly during a vocal lesson when Moe couldn't produce certain notes. A specialist's jarring comparison—"your snare drum has almost the same impact as a pistol going off"—forced her to confront a difficult truth: her passion was damaging her hearing. What followed was a journey through evolving hearing technology, from early custom devices that made sound seem "like it was coming through a wall" to modern receiver-in-canal instruments that restored clarity and musical nuance.Moe candidly shares the embarrassing moments that pushed her to seek help—like responding to questions with completely unrelated answers—and the incredible transformation in her performance capabilities after adopting in-ear monitors. Beyond the stage, her hearing journey has enhanced her work leading therapeutic drum circles for seniors, where she witnesses firsthand how untreated hearing loss can lead to social withdrawal and isolation.This episode offers a powerful reminder about the connection between hearing health and overall wellbeing. Whether you're a musician, music lover, or simply someone concerned about maintaining quality connections throughout life, Moe's parting advice resonates: "Don't doubt yourself. If you think you have a hearing issue, even a tiny one, get it checked." Your future self will thank you.

BT and Sal engaged in a fiery debate about which feat is more difficult: pitching in the MLB with one hand like Jim Abbott or drumming for a legendary rock band with one arm like Def Leppard's Rick Allen. The discussion, sparked by a caller who is a drummer himself, highlighted the incredible coordination required for both tasks. While Sal initially leaned toward Abbott's pitching as the more difficult challenge, the conversation delved into the intricacies of drumming, with its simultaneous demands on all four limbs, making a strong case for Allen's rhythmic genius. The segment was a captivating mix of sports, music, and the remarkable human ability to overcome adversity.

This Drum Panel brings together Brendan Buckley—drummer for Shakira, Perry Farrell, Morrissey, and more—and one of my closest friends, Gunnar Olsen of Puscifer, Mother Feather, Big Data, and ME to chat about... ...the difference between what works in the practice room and what works in an arena, charting versus memorizing, and how to respect the composition before making it your own. Brendan breaks down the “Shakira machine” and why clarity and projection beat busy parts when you're playing to the back row. We also cover deep-dive listening versus casting a wide net, Bowie's Berlin era, and the time Brendan's electrician turned out to be one of my favorite drummers—and his too. It's equal parts practical advice, music history, and great road stories from working drummers.

Ronda Alexander on strategies to build inclusive health coalitions, manage power dynamics, center marginalized voices, & design sustainable governance. Summary In this episode of Health Hats, host Danny van Leeuwen talks with Ronda Alexander, a community health advocate and skilled facilitator, about the challenges of building and maintaining effective health coalitions. Alexander shares her journey from attending Detroit's innovative Henry Ford Academy to working with Ford Partnership for Advanced Studies on workforce development, ultimately finding her calling at Vital Village Networks in Boston, where she spent seven years supporting national coalitions focused on health equity and early childhood wellbeing. The conversation explores practical ways to manage power dynamics in cross-sector collaborations, from setting group norms that encourage real participation to designing decision-making processes that balance speed and sustainability. Alexander stresses the critical importance of listening to marginalized communities—those "furthest from opportunity"—and making sure they have real seats at decision-making tables, not just token representation. Key insights include strategies for inclusive facilitation, such as incorporating quiet reflection time, small group discussions, and developing shared talking points that coalition members can take back to their organizations. Alexander advocates for proactive governance planning, comparing effective coalition building to chess strategy, where groups think "seven to eight moves down the board" to prepare for inevitable challenges. The episode wraps up with Alexander's call to action for health advocates: start by listening to the communities you want to serve, trust what people tell you about their needs, and design systems that place those most affected by health inequities in leadership and decision-making roles.

We start in the anecdote Wild West. Specifically it was wild [north] west London for Elis as he's been to Oasis in credibility damaging seats. The best seats in the house, surrounded by some of the most famous people in the country. He *could* have asked for General Admission. But he didn't and that suggestion is shoved up the tunnel of anguish.City backline Akanji, Dias and Gvardiol were all with him and all saw him in tears. Incidentally Gvardiol was papped on commando retreat this summer smeared in war paint. Something you wouldn't catch Elis doing as he nibbles on his prawn sandwiches.But there are others swinging into the anecdote town, including the most handsome cowboy around, Luke McQueen. We also receive reflections on Elis's inability to remember Pythagoras' theorem and open up his big ideas box which contains the phrase “health podcast”. *AND* there's a potential ill-thought out feature in the offing. It's hit after hit.elisandjohn@bbc.co.uk or 07974 293 022 on WhatsApp if you also want to reflect on your many corporate box experiences.

We recently reviewed our statistics and it's quite unbelievable -- our podcast has over 40,000 subscribers and has been downloaded well over 1.7 million times! Wow! From the book's inception, to starting the podcast with Bahman in 2015, it all began very organically and was truly a homegrown effort. Our community, however, has been the greatest gift in this entire endeavor. The goal was to provide an alternative approach to looking at adult ADHD -- not as a disorder, but as a very specific neurological type. To celebrate, we have some truly extraordinary interviews coming up. We'll be speaking with members of our community who have achieved remarkable results by integrating the topics we discuss on the podcast. These are people from around the world -- artists, teachers, emergency responders, ADHD coaches, and more -- who have powerful stories to share.
