Co-host Sean brings a sharp left turn for the program: a progressive rock LP by UK band Jade Warrior. This album, their fourth, was itself a stylistic shift by the group toward what might best be described as "world" or "ambient" music, and was influential on the burgeoning New Age genre.   If you like us, please support us at patreon.com/idbuythatpodcast to get exclusive content (episodes on 45s!), or tell a friend about us.

Josh King is a sibling, a husband, a father, and an insanely intelligent human being. He mans the six-string, the vocals, and the mixing for the band, Low Forest, and he's my guest for Episode No. 132.Josh and I talked growing up and education, Missouri-style. We touched on Low Forest's fascinating collection of releases on Bandcamp, where to follow them (Spotify, Apple, YouTube, Facebook, and TikTok, and we had a peek at a few of Josh's favorite albums, which were these:Hum's You'd Prefer an Astronaut (1995)Fantastic Planet (1996), FailurePortishead's Roseland NYC Live (1998)Small Explosions That Are Yours to Keep (2005), Mitchell AkiyamaElder's Reflections of a Floating World (2017)The fact that Josh has a super-sharp mind, a warm-and-open heart, and might very well be a vessel for delivering space rock to Kansas City may or may not be related to the fact that he is a pretty soft-spoken fellow. One would think that I'd be able to recognize that early enough in the conversation to adjust the levels at this point, but...it's not easy being the 2024 version of Al Franken's Mobile One-Man Uplink Unit. So, apologies if he's tough to hear at times.It was a true pleasure meeting Josh, and knowing that his presence is out there adds to my occasionally stout belief that there's good in the world moving things in the right direction.Thanks for tuning in.copyright disclaimer: I do not own the rights to the audio samples contained within this episode.

A power outage triggered apocalyptic thoughts, and revealed the fragility of human systems. It highlighted the need for radical trust in God's sovereignty instead of relying on our own efforts during uncertain times, while still caring for others and awaiting divine guidance with stillness and faith.

Conor O'Brien aka Villagers released their sixth studio album That Golden Time on May 10 via Domino Records and talks through its 10 tracks on this episode of the TPOE podcast. ---- From the press release: After the band-centred sessions of its predecessor Fever Dreams, That Golden Time's solo-centric core was not forced on O'Brien by lockdown. “For me, That Golden Time has an internalised voice, so much so that I almost found it impossible to let anyone else in,” he says. “It's probably the most vulnerable album I've made. I played and recorded everything in my apartment, and finally, towards the end, invited people in.” Aside from Dónal Lunny, the album features American songwriter and multi-instrumentalist Peter Broderick on violin, David Tapley of Dublin band Tandem Felix on pedal steel guitar, and a group of players that O'Brien had first seen performing in a tribute to one of his great loves, Italian composer Ennio Morricone, who added soprano vocal, viola and cello. The understated poetry within That Golden Time is effortlessly carried by gorgeous melodies and sublime instrumentation. Inspired by philosophers, poets, playwrights and singer-songwriters that had seeped into O'Brien's consciousness: namechecks this time go to Friedrich Nietzsche (his Beyond Good and Evil: Prelude to a Philosophy of the Future is quoted in the album's accompanying booklet), Dory Previn, Marcus Aurelius, Fintan O'Toole, Lorraine Hansberry, Chet Baker, Joan Didion, PJ Harvey and post-classical beauties Rachel's. --- Villagers Irish tour dates: June 29: Trinity College Dublin December 3: Cork Opera House December 4: Dolan's Warehouse, Limerick December 5: INEC Club, Killarney December 7: Mandela Hall, Belfast December 11: Set Theatre, Kilkenny December 12: Leisureland, Galway --- Passing a Message Passing a Message contains the lyrics to over 80 songs, with artwork and photographs, along with previously unseen notebook lyric drafts and drawings curated by Conor for his musical project, Villagers. Presented as a full-colour hardback book, with a unique glow-in-the-dark cover, there will also be a limited deluxe edition which comes with a 7" vinyl featuring an exclusive unreleased track 'Pictures of the Floating World' (featuring Rachael Lavelle).

How does the past live on within our experience of the present? And how does our decision to speak about or write down our recollections of how things were change our understanding of those memories--how does it change us in the present? Asking those questions back in 2019 brought RTB into the company of memory-obsessed writers like Virginia Woolf and Marcel Proust. Discussing autofiction by Rachel Cusk, Sheila Heti and Karl Ove Knausgaard, John and Elizabeth begin to understand that the line between real-life fact, memory, and fiction is not quite as sharp as we had thought. Joining Recall This Book for this conversation is philosopher Helena De Bres, author of influential articles including “The Many, not the Few: Pluralism about Global Distributive Justice”, “Justice in Transnational Governance”, “What's Special About the State?” “Local Food: The Moral Case” and most recently "Narrative and Meaning in Life". (Her website contains links to her many fine articles for fellow philosophers and for the general public). She has recently begun to work on moral philosophy, especially the question of what makes a life meaningful, and on philosophy of art. John ranks his favorite anthropologists, while Elizabeth wonders whether autofiction necessarily takes on the affect of an academic department meeting--and what that affect has to do with Kazuo Ishiguro. Discussed in this episode: "A Sketch of the Past," Virginia Woolf "Finding Innocence and Experience: Voices in Memoir," Sue William Silverman The Outline Trilogy, Rachel Cusk My Struggle, Karl Ove Knausgaard How Should a Person Be?: A Novel from Life, Sheila Heti An Artist of the Floating World, Kazuo Ishiguro The Moth The Day of Shelly's Death: The Poetry and Ethnography of Grief, Renato Rosaldo Memoir: An Introduction, G.

In this second of two episodes on "scenes," Phil and JF set their sights on Greenwich Village in the wake of the Second World War. Focusing on two works on the era – Anatole Broyard's Kafka Was the Rage and John Cassavetes' Shadows – the conversation further develops the mystique of urban scenes and explores the weirdness of cities. The city, long considered the human artifact par excellence, comes to seem like something that comes from outside the ambit of humanity. Support us on Patreon (https://www.patreon.com/weirdstudies).

Listener discretion advised: This episode delves into the disturbing details of the Whitechapel murders of 1888, and may not be suitable for all audiences. Serialized from 1989 to 1996, Alan Moore and Eddie Campbell's graphic novel From Hell was first released in a single volume in 1999, just as the world was groaning into the present century. This is an important detail, because according to the creators of this astounding work, the age then passing away could not be understood without reference to the gruesome murders, never solved, of five women in London's Whitechapel district, in the fall of 1888. In Alan Moore's occult imagination, the Ripper murders were more than another instance of human depravity: they constituted a magical operation intended to alter the course of history. The nature of this operation, and whether or not it was successful, is the focus of this episode, in which JF and Phil also explore the imaginal actuality of Victorian London and the strange nature of history and time.

Bookwaves/Artwaves is produced and hosted by Richard Wolinsky. Links to assorted local theater & book venues   Bookwaves ​​​​​Kazuo Ishiguro, in conversation with host Richard Wolinsky, recorded October 6, 2000 while he was on tour for his novel “When We Were Orphans.” The winner of the 2017 Nobel Prize in Literature, Sir Kazuo Ishiguro is recognized today as one of the world's leading authors. Nominated four times, he won the Booker Prize in 1989 for The Remains of the Day, and was most recently nominated for an Academy Award for his screenplay for the 2022 film “Living.” In this interview, he discusses his most recent book at that time, When We Were Orphans, and talks about how he became a writer and the relationship of his Japanese heritage to his life in Great Britain, where he's lived since he was six years old. His most recent novel, a parable, is titled Klara and the Sun, and was published in 2021. This interview was digitized, remastered and edited in November 2023 and has never been heard in its entirety. Along with Living, which can be seen on Netflix, Kazuo Ishiguro has written screenplays for The Saddest Music in the World, now on AMC plus. An Adaptation of Never Let Me Go can be found on Starz, and one of An Artist of the Floating World is on Amazon Prime. Both The White Countess, for which he wrote the screenplay, and his adaptation of the Remains of the Day can be rented on various apps. Complete 43-minute interview. Photo: Sara Danius   Bookwaves Mick Herron discusses his latest novel, “The Secret Hours,” and the Slough House series of of spy novels and stories with host Richard Wolinsky. Second of two parts. Mick Herron has written eight books in the Slough House series of novels about a tiny corner of MI5 for rejects and misfits, people who have screwed up but not been fired. They are known collectively as “Slow Horses,” which is the title of the television series starring Gary Oldman as their boss, Jackson Lamb. “The Secret Hours” is located in the same world as the series, but serves as a stand-alone novel about an inquiry into MI5's past, set up by a conservative government out to rein in the Secret Service. In the interview, Mick Herron discusses the origins of the book and of the Slough House series, as well as his career as a writer, and his writing process. Recorded via Zencastr September 22, 2023.

Photo: Sara Danius. Creative Commons ​​​​​Kazuo Ishiguro, in conversation with host Richard Wolinsky, recorded October 6, 2000 while he was on tour for his novel “When We Were Orphans.” The winner of the 2017 Nobel Prize in Literature, Sir Kazuo Ishiguro is recognized today as one of the world's leading authors. Nominated four times, he won the Booker Prize in 1989 for The Remains of the Day, and was most recently nominated for an Academy Award for his screenplay for the 2022 film “Living.” In this interview, he discusses his most recent book at that time, When We Were Orphans, and talks about how he became a writer and the relationship of his Japanese heritage to his life in Great Britain, where he's lived since he was six years old. His most recent novel, a parable, is titled Klara and the Sun, and was published in 2021. This interview was digitized, remastered and edited in November 2023 and has never been heard in its entirety. Along with Living, which can be seen on Netflix, Kazuo Ishiguro has written screenplays for The Saddest Music in the World, now on AMC plus. An Adaptation of Never Let Me Go can be found on Starz, and one of An Artist of the Floating World is on Amazon Prime. Both The White Countess, for which he wrote the screenplay, and his adaptation of the Remains of the Day can be rented on various apps. A television series adaptation of Never Let Me Go was announced and then cancelled. The post Kazuo Ishiguro, “When We Were Orphans,” 2000 appeared first on KPFA.

Stuart and Burning Man's Community Services head honcho Terry “Retro” Schoop riff on the streets of our fair city and the naming thereof, from the controversial to the miraculous to the misunderstood. Black Rock City has elaborate art themes, each with street names, each with curious conditions. Why does our recreational refugee camp even need street names? Were they always alphabetical around an imaginary clock face? And what's a clock anyway? Hear this year's art theme (ANIMALIA) express itself through cryptids (animals that no one can prove are real). Folklore and fandom brought us our new ABC street names: Afanc, Bigfoot, Chupacabra, Dingbat… and NOT the Easter Bunny, thanks to Encantados, which are were-dolphins that shape-shift into dapper dancers in search of a party.  This is an episode with literature, lore, and laughter — and a pile of BRC trivia for street cred.Streets of BRC 2023: Cavalcade of Cryptids | Burning Man JournalBurning Man 2023: ANIMALIATerry “Retro” Schoop | Burning Man JournalBurning Man Staff: Terry Schoop

After World War II, the U.S. government worked with industry to create a single-use, disposable consumer culture as a way to ensure ongoing market prosperity. Who benefited? Consumer product companies like Coca-Cola, and the fossil fuel industry, whose petrochemicals are at the source. The result? Plastic pollution is now found in virtually every living organism – including humans – and is one of the worst threats to ocean ecosystems. Now, a global resistance movement is rising to abolish petrochemical plastics and to shift to a zero-waste, circular economy.

In this episode, Andrew and John can't stop thinking about it. Joining the pod this week is Danny Bracken. He is the former guitarist for the band Anathallo as well as a visual artist and director of exhibitions for the Mattress Factory art museum in Pittsburgh. We discuss his history with the band, writing and recording Floating World and Canopy Glow, crafting an interesting live show, and turning down a tour opportunity with one of his musical idols. Then, a track by track discussion of the Anathallo's final album "Canopy Glow." Album discussion begins at 1:02:43.

Have you always wanted to hear a roughly accurate cliff notes version of a strange and awesome Japanese folk tale?Maybe you're wondering which Josh prefers most between Anathallo's Floating World, Springsteen's Nebraska, or his own bed? Curious about why this is one of TJ's wishlist albums?Or perhaps you enjoy the idea of the CJN fellas tearing an unassuming Pitchfork journalist to utter shreds?If any of the above piques your interest…boy oh boy, have we got the Church Jams volume for you!Float along through the bizarre world of Anathallo's first full length album on a major label, as the CJN Crew dig deep with some artistic heart to heart moments, and Kylan constructs an innovative song-scoring system!Church Jams Now is sponsored by Collide Records.

In this episode, Andrew and John dig up slugs and bugs. But first, thoughts on the Dalai Lama, Timothy Keller, Metallica, Babymetal, and the Olsen Twins. Then, a track by track discussion of the Anathallo album "Floating World." Album discussion begins at 28:26.

In fact, I had an epiphany the night Japan lost to Croatia. A more advanced piano music creation method that deepens cooperation with nature. The specific content is top secret, but it's a very natural manner. In a way, it's a very Japanese way of doing things. Collaborative work with spirits in the forest. I feel that this creative method has greatly evolved my creative process. This evolution is thanks to your daily support. This song is the first one. #3292 Dec. 19, 2022: Ukiyo means literally the floating world or vulgar side of life (this title is from "A guidebook to Japan and its Cuspoms") Today's pure primal piano music here.

Today we hear from writers Tracey Palmer and Belle Brett about how they keep writing, keep their love for their projects, and how “work” is more than just generating pagesTracey Palmer is professional writer and editor, and founder of Palmer Communications. She completed Grub Street's Novel Incubator program in 2016 and serves as co-editor and writer for the group's blog, Dead Darlings. She's won residencies at the Salty Quill Writers' Retreat in Maine and the Virginia Center for the Creative Arts. The Texas League of Writers named her first, unpublished novel a finalist in its manuscript competition. Her second novel, ALIVE DAY, is a character-driven, literary drama that gives voice to the often-untold story of female veterans in America. Belle Brett is a graduate of Grub Street's first Novel Incubator class. Her first book Gina in the Floating World, a gritty, and sexy coming-of-age novel set in 1981 Tokyo, was called by Kirkus reviews “a sharply observed and unforgettable debut.” It was chosen as a Sarton Book Awards finalist in contemporary fiction and a Benjamin Franklin Awards silver medalist in best new voice in fiction. When not writing or making art, Belle can be found working on her blog, “Our Slow Downsizing Story: Savoring the Journey Bit by Bit.”  This is a public episode.

In this set of collected, connected conversations (the penultimate episode in our Summer '22 series): Neech the Vote! Was it really a year ago that Canada held its last federal election? A contest we didn't much concern ourselves with, to be frank; after all, we'd gone hard on the election two years prior. But, looking back, maybe that 2019 campaign taught us all we needed to know about how Indigenous interests fare in such settler exercises.   Featured voices this podcast include (in order of appearance): • Hayden King, Executive Director of the Yellowhead Institute based at Toronto Metropolitan University • Vanessa Watts, Yellowhead fellow and Assistant Professor of Indigenous Studies and Sociology at McMaster University • Kim TallBear, Professor in the Faculty of Native Studies at the University of Alberta and Canada Research Chair in Indigenous Peoples, Technoscience and Society • Brock Pitawanakwat, Associate Professor of Indigenous Studies at York University • Ken Williams, Assistant Professor with the University of Alberta's Department of Drama • Therese Mailhot, author and Assistant Professor of English at Purdue University • Candis Callison, Associate Professor in the Institute for Critical Indigenous Studies and the Graduate School of Journalism at UBC  // CREDITS: Creative Commons music in this episode includes “really beautiful my mambo” and “Regate” by Jean Toba, “Treasure finding,” “Love Planet,” and “Night in a Seashell” by Komiku, “Rien n'a vraiment changé” by Demoiselle Döner, and “Respect” by Alpha Hydrae.

On this week's collected, connected conversations (the sixth in our Summer '22 series): Settlerology. That's right: our chance to turn that gaze around, to peer deep into the soul of settler society!

“I start with the emotion. I don't know what the story is. I don't know who the characters are necessarily. I'm working on very little like, I'm thinking, ‘oh, well, the way this light looks through a window', or something — very few details here and there. But I don't know what happens in this story.” Join three amazing authors talking about their three fabulous fall reads: If I Survive You by Jonathan Escoffery, The Book of Goose by Yiyun Li and Bliss Montage by Ling Ma.
