By the time anyone reads or listens to this podcast, the situation with Iran may be completely different than when I write this. In keeping with the intent of this podcast series, however, I thought it might be worthwhile to explore the possibility of intervention in Iran in a way that is in line with the enduring principles of war. In doing this I am not advocating such an intervention. Neither do I express any opinion about whether or not it is even a good idea. My intent is to frame a possible military intervention within the framework of time proven successful strategy and Just War criteria. Given the record of U.S. military interventions following the first Gulf War, I am confident that whatever we do regarding Iran will completely ignore that framework.

Aaron Copland (1900-1990) è stato una figura di spicco nella musicaamericana, a volte chiamato il “Decano dei compositori americani” per la suaprofonda influenza sull'identità musicale americana del XX secolo. Nato aBrooklyn, New York, il più giovane di cinque figli di immigrati ebrei lituanirussi, la prima formazione musicale di Copland proveniva da sua sorella e dagliinsegnanti del quartiere. All'età di 15 anni, aveva deciso di diventare uncompositore.La sua svolta artistica è arrivata dopo aver studiato a Parigi con laleggendaria compositrice e insegnante Nadia Boulanger, che haplasmato la sua voce compositiva essendo introdotto alle ultime tendenzeeuropee. Tornato negli Stati Uniti negli anni '20, Copland iniziò a fondereelementi jazz con forme classiche, come si vede in Music for theTheatre e nel suo Concerto per pianoforte.Le sue prime opere, come la Sinfonia per organo e orchestra ele Piano Variations, mostravano un taglio modernista, segnato dadissonanze e ritmi complessi.Ma negli anni '30, nel bel mezzo della Grande Depressione, Copland cercò dicreare musica che risuonasse più profondamente con il pubblico americano.Questo cambiamento ha dato vita a una serie di opere che incorporavano melodiepopolari, armonie aperte e melodie accessibili, evocando lo spirito dellafrontiera americana. Questo stile ha definito opere come i suoi balletti AppalachianSpring (che ha vinto il Premio Pulitzer per la musica nel 1945), Billythe Kid e Rodeo, e la sua Fanfare for the CommonMan. Questi hanno reso Copland un nome familiare.Durante gli anni '40 e '50, Copland si espanse grazie alla musica da film,componendo colonne sonore pluripremiate per film come Uomini e topi (1939), Lanostra città (1940) e L'ereditiera (1949), per ilquale vinse un Oscar.Più tardi nella vita, esplorò tecniche più astratte e seriali, purmantenendo la sua sensibilità lirica. Oltre a comporre, Copland fu uninstancabile sostenitore della musica americana, scrivendo (inparticolare What to Listen for in Music nel 1939), insegnandoe dirigendo. Grazie alla sua dedizione nel rendere la musica contemporaneaaccessibile a un pubblico più ampio, è diventato un pilastro della vitaculturale americana.Copland è morto nel 1990 a Sleepy Hollow, New York, lasciando un'ereditàche continua a plasmare il modo in cui l'America ascolta sé stessa.Consigli per l'ascoltoOpere teatrali Opere orchestrali e concerti Opere vocali
Zunächst die Fanfare zu Peter Hahnes neuestem, unwiderstehlichen Rap „Warum macht ihr uns kaputt?“; dann das Thema der Tage, der Höllenschlund der Epstein-Files, die Verdorbenheit der globalen Elite, Nervosität der europäischen Nomenklatura und erzwungene Rücktritte. Eine Erinnerung an die hinreißende Komödie um Bill Clinton und die Praktikantin Monica Lewinsky. Gemessen an den heutigen Standards eine, na ja, nicht gerade Orgie im Oval Office, aber ganz sicher eine der totalen Verblödungen der Medien. Eine Glosse über den berühmtesten Blowjob der Welt.

Overview There's a specific kind of fatigue that comes from "doing the right things" and still feeling ignored. You show up consistently, you post, you refine the offer, you keep building, and yet traction stays unpredictable. Often the issue is not effort, it's misalignment: the message is landing in the wrong place, or the experience is quietly breaking trust before people ever become customers. This is one of those patterns that looks like a marketing problem, but behaves like a credibility problem.

Regarding… Music From The Elder kicks off Season Five of the Regarding… series with a deep dive into KISS's most infamous left turn: The Elder, the soundtrack to a movie that never existed—until now.Co-Hosts Greg “Wolfie” Wolf, Scott D. Monroe, Chaz Charles, and Corey Morissette enter the album track by track with eyes wide open, asking not whether it's good or bad, but what actually happens when a band builds an entire fantasy world and forgets how to live inside it. This season isn't about rehabilitating The Elder, and it's not about burying it either. It's about documenting it honestly. Oaky...honestly, they didn't need to ask if it was bad...but that is entirely besides the point. There are those who would disagree.The episode opens by framing the record's troubled history—Bob Ezrin, post-Wall ambition, band dysfunction, label interference, and the infamous resequencing that altered the original narrative. The hosts debate original vs. remastered track order before settling on the band's restored vision: “Fanfare” into “Just a Boy.”From there, the discussion digs into why the album alienated fans, how its medieval fantasy tropes collide with KISS's identity, and why certain ideas almost work when stripped of the band's branding. Paul Stanley and Gene Simmons quotes add historical context, while sharp commentary compares The Elder to Tommy, 2112, Lord of the Rings, and even unintentional self-parody.The episode's major twist: the launch of an original, serialized movie script written by Scott D. Monroe. Each week, new pages will be released, expanding the story the album only hinted at—and sometimes actively avoided. This first episode features a full table read of the prologue, introducing Morpheus, the Elders, Mr. Blackwell, and the Boy, finally giving the album the narrative structure it never quite earned.Along the way, the hosts cover Ace Frehley's limited contributions, Bob Kulick's uncredited guitar work, the album's critical reputation, and why The Elder may be one of rock's most fascinating failures.Season Five begins exactly where Regarding… belongs: at the intersection of ambition, miscalculation, and just enough belief to make the whole thing worth examining.We listen so you don't have to.The ShowThree guys who are various stages of Def Leppard fans, and a guy who's just heard the hits (maybe...some of them.)

Music as Cultural Storytelling w/Clipper EricksonFrom Juilliard to Dett's rediscovery: a pianist's mission to reveal hidden brilliance.Clipper Erickson has been hailed by Fanfare as “one of the finest pianists of his generation…a consummate musician.” A devoted musical explorer, he made his debut at age 19 with the Young Musicians Foundation Orchestra in Los Angeles before training at The Juilliard School, Yale University, and Indiana University under legendary pianist John Ogdon. His artistry has earned international acclaim on stages such as the Kennedy Center and Carnegie Hall, as well as through his landmark Navona Records release My Cup Runneth Over – The Complete Piano Works of R. Nathaniel Dett, named a Gramophone UK “Critic's Choice” and Album of the Year in 2016. Today, Erickson continues to champion overlooked voices in American music while sharing his passion with students at the Westminster Conservatory and through master classes worldwide.Linkhttps://www.clippererickson.com/Tags:Arts,Composer,Culture,Music,music education,Music History,Music Interviews,Performing Arts,pianist,recording artist,Music as Cultural Storytelling w/Clipper Erickson,Live Video Podcast Interview,Phantom Electric Ghost Podcast,PodcastSupport PEG by checking out our Sponsors:Download and use Newsly for free now from www.newsly.me or from the link in the description, and use promo code “GHOST” and receive a 1-month free premium subscription.The best tool for getting podcast guests:https://podmatch.com/signup/phantomelectricghostSubscribe to our Instagram for exclusive content:https://www.instagram.com/expansive_sound_experiments/Subscribe to our YouTube https://youtube.com/@phantomelectricghost?si=rEyT56WQvDsAoRprRSShttps://anchor.fm/s/3b31908/podcast/rssSubstackhttps://substack.com/@phantomelectricghost?utm_source=edit-profile-page
Emmanuel Courcol's heartwarming and heartbreaking film My Brother's Band, aka En Fanfare or The Marching Band, is a film about Thibaut (Benjamin Lavernhe), a conductor who discovers he has leukemia and needs a bone marrow transplant. After discovering that his sister is not his blood related sibling and the he was adopted as a child, Thibaut goes down a path of discovery to find his birth mother, and possible siblings. He discovers he has a brother, Jimmy (Pierre Lottin), a working class man who also has an affinity for music.My Brother's Band invites us to consider just who has access to art, and whether restricting art to those who can afford to engage with it is the right thing at all. It's also about the power of sibling relationships, both from adopted families and from blood relatives. If there's another film from this year that feels aligned to the tone and message that Emmanuel Courcoul is putting forward, it would be Miki Magasiva's Tinā, which also speaks of the power of music and the joy it can bring in the shadow of personal upheaval.I spoke to director Emmanuel Courcoul, with the assistance of interpreter Sally Blackwood, about the making of My Brother's Band, the emotionality of the film, and what he hopes that Australian audiences will get from the film.For those who don't speak French, the first half of this episode includes the interpreted responses from Sally Blackwood, while the second half of the interview includes both Emmanuel's French responses and Sally's interpreted responses.My Brother's Band is in full release across Australia from Boxing Day, with advanced screenings taking place from 12 - 14 December 2025.

In Part 4 of our conversation with comics veteran Al Milgrom, we spotlight his collaboration with Jim Shooter on Secret Wars II—digging into how the massive crossover was shaped behind the scenes, what it was like coordinating with dozens of creators, and how editorial challenges turned into creative opportunities.We also go inside Al's time as editor of Marvel Fanfare, a title often misunderstood as a dumping ground for inventory stories. Al sets the record straight—it was actually a creative playground, where artists and writers could experiment with format, storytelling, and page layout. From unique one-shots to prestige-style presentations, Fanfare gave pros like Barry Windsor-Smith and Michael Golden the freedom to think outside the box and produce work that wouldn't fit the typical monthly grind.Plus: more classic Marvel Bullpen stories—from prank wars and personality clashes to the raw energy of a company bursting with creativity in the Bronze Age.
