Throughout 2025, Danger Close featured some of the most powerful, emotional, and historically significant conversations in the show's history — none more impactful than the interviews with the men of MACV-SOG, men who inspired the #1 New York Times bestselling novel, Cry Havoc. Formed during the Vietnam War, the Military Assistance Command, Vietnam – Studies and Observations Group was one of the most clandestine and highly trained units ever assembled. These warriors operated in the shadows, conducted missions that remained classified for decades, and carried the weight of those experiences long after coming home.This special Best Of episode brings together the most memorable insights, stories, and reflections from this year's interviews with SOG veterans — a tribute to the legacy, sacrifice, and courage of those who stepped forward when their nation needed them most.Featured Moments Include:Firsthand recollections of running recon across the fenceLeadership forged in the most dangerous missions of the warThe emotional cost of secrecy, sacrifice, and survivalLessons for today's warriors, citizens, and future generationsReferenced Episodes and Videos: Jim Shorten: MACV-SOG Vietnam War Veteran: https://youtu.be/IuTDDAvAHQYTop Secret Combat in Laos: https://youtu.be/SWYKhm_AWOsJohn Stryker Meyer: MACV-SOG Vietnam War Veteran: https://youtu.be/h3FdEgm-fzUMACV-SOG: The Secret War: https://youtu.be/pCGbykibF4IPart 2: MACV-SOG: The Secret War: https://youtu.be/hhdBsDliUusSurrender Not An Option: https://youtu.be/IJywCS9voxEFOLLOW JACKInstagram: @JackCarrUSA X:  @JackCarrUSAFacebook:  @JackCarr YouTube:  @JackCarrUSASPONSORSCRY HAVOC – A Tom Reece Thriller https://www.officialjackcarr.com/books/cry-havoc/Bravo Company Manufacturing - https://bravocompanyusa.com/ and on Instagram @BravoCompanyUSATHE SIGs of Jack Carr:Visit https://www.sigsauer.com/ and on Instagram @sigsauerinc Jack Carr Gear: Explore the gear here https://jackcarr.co/gear

Formed in 1959 New York, the group—lead Ronnie Bennett, sister Estelle, and cousin Nedra Talley—defined girl-group era with their sultry style and Spector's "Wall of Sound," scoring hits like "Be My Baby" (#2 Hot 100) before disbanding in 1967 and earning Rock & Roll Hall of Fame induction in 2007.Analytic Dreamz traces the track's origins from Leroy Anderson's 1946 instrumental to The Ronettes' energetic version with signature "ring-a-ling" vocals and effects, overshadowed initially by its release timing but revived via 1972 reissue. Now a perennial juggernaut, it peaked at #8 Hot 100 (2023), earned 3× Platinum RIAA certification, fuels annual streams via playlists, TikTok virality (17K+ videos), syncs in shows like Hacks, and Target ads—driving the album to #7 Billboard 200 (2024) while cementing its status as a modern Christmas staple. Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/analytic-dreamz-notorious-mass-effect/donationsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

"The Things You Don't Know Yet" I seem to care more about the band Adult Leisure than my own adult leisure and there's a good reason for that. The Bristol outfit Adult Leisure are one of the most exciting indie pop bands around. Formed in 2020, Adult Leisure have put out a succession of catchy singles and EPs like The Weekend Ritual which have all led up to the release of their debut album, The Things You Don't Know Yet. Filled with infectious hooks, inventive arrangements and a singer in Neil Scott whose delivery is a mix of lippy confidence and pure pop grace, Adult Leisure are poised to be huge. They've got the songs, they've got the attitude and they've got the ambition. But they're also down to earth--in fact, Neil, who's a really nice guy, just got off work when this conversation took place. And he talks about the balance between civilian life and potential stardom with both wisdom and perspective. https://www.instagram.com/adultleisureband www.bombshellradio.com (http://www.bombshellradio.com) www.stereoembersmagazine.com (http://www.stereoembersmagazine.com) www.alexgreenbooks.com (http://www.alexgreenbooks.com) Stereo Embers The Podcast IG + BLUESKY: @emberspodcast Email: editor@stereoembersmagazine.com (mailto:editor@stereoembersmagazine.com)

This month we welcome Anglian Water's delivery director for water Paul Lonsdale to discuss the pioneering work of the @one Alliance. Formed of eight partner organisations – Anglian Water, Balfour Beatty, Barhale, Binnies, Mott MacDonald Bentley, MWH Treatment, Skanska and Sweco – the alliance has been running for 20 years and has set a template for collaboration and efficiency in major project delivery in the sector. Lonsdale tells us how the amalgamation of so many organisations works in practice and what benefits come from having a range of expertise involved. We also discuss Anglian Water's other alliances and why alliancing has become prevalent in the water sector. In the introductory section, host Rob Hakimian is joined by senior reporter Thomas Johnson to discuss some recent site visits they have been on including to 3D printing facilities and National Grid's new Tilbury to Gravesend power tunnel.

Episode 349 features Love Nut, the mid-90s Baltimore indie pop band that almost broke big but got lost in the major-label shuffle. Formed in the gritty heart of Charm City by dual-threat axe-man/vocalist Andy Bopp, guitarist/vocalist Max Mueller, bassist Dave Vespoint, and drummer Tom Sabia, Love Nut blended raw emotion with razor-sharp melodies on their 1996 debut Bastards of Melancholy. Snapped up by Interscope Records after a local indie release, the album earned rave reviews for its melancholic bite but sadly fizzled commercially. Fast-forward to now: After nearly three decades, Love Nut is coming back for a triumphant 30th anniversary reunion show this Friday, December 5th, at The Recher Theater in Towson, MD, just a stone's throw from downtown Baltimore. Special guests Splitsville join the fray for what promises to be a nostalgia-soaked explosion of guitars, harmonies, and that unmistakable Charm City swagger. In the episode I spoke with Dave and we talked about the band's origin story, the record industry then vs now, and the big show this weekend! Check out the Recher Theater website for tickets. Thanks for listening and supporting local artists.   https://therechermd.com/event/love-nut-30th-anniversary-show/the-recher/towson-maryland/   Please follow, rate, or review the podcast wherever you are streaming if you'd like to help us out.  -- Part-Time Rockstar Productions is available in the DMV for music videos and live filming.     

Ugly Stick's Absinthe returns in 2025 with a long overdue vinyl reissue, more than thirty years after its first appearance on CD in 1993. Formed in Delaware, Ohio in 1989, the four-piece carved out a sound that was equal parts Los Angeles punk and Midwestern heartland rock, drawing on the grit of X and the melodic punch of Tom Petty to create what critics would later hail as “genre-crossing” and “seminal.” Hovercraft Records has remastered the album and added bonus material from contemporaneous live shows and unreleased studio sessions, marking the record's first-ever release on LP and digital platforms. Steeped in the small towns and shrinking industrial landscapes of Middle America, Ugly Stick were uniquely positioned to capture the tension of that moment in time. Their cow-punk attack carried both the edge of beer-soaked garage nihilism and the expressiveness of roots rock filtered through a landscape of carnival posters, endless farm fields, and collapsing barns. As Columbus Alive once wrote, Absinthe was “the bedrock of the Cowtown sound,” establishing Ugly Stick as central figures in a movement that defined the Columbus scene of the early '90s. The record's remastered release only underscores how prescient the band was. “Their mix of punk, college rock and alt-country was years ahead of its time,” noted Daggerzine. Exclaim! observed that “straddling the line between genres is never an easy task but with Ugly Stick's talent and experience the results have rarely been so rewarding.” From the ragged twang to the jangly guitars, the band's ability to transform punk and rockabilly into something original drew international praise, with Belgium's Rootstime calling them “pioneers of a genre and a sound which was baptized as the Columbus sound.”Photo Credit: Amy Rathbone UGLY STICK ONLINE INSTAGRAM | FACEBOOK | BANDCAMP | YOUTUBE Checkout my YouTube Channel with long form interviews from the Subversives | the History of Lowest of the Low. https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL9d1VSeOHYuxFWKuRdmn9j8UTW6AHwS_fAlso my Weekly Tour Vlog is up an live on the YouTubeshttps://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL9d1VSeOHYuwphwhc4zd0VgY66f1OUQZp Pledge monthly with Patreon https://www.patreon.com/apologueShop Apologue products at http://apologue.ca/shopCheck out new Four Square Here: https://distrokid.com/hyperfollow/foursquare/brighton-beach-ephttps://distrokid.com/hyperfollow/foursquare/seven-oh-sevenhttps://distrokid.com/hyperfollow/foursquare/industry-at-home–21st-anniversary-remix-remasteredhttps://distrokid.com/hyperfollow/foursquare/when-weeks-were-weekends

Send us a textWe sat down with Brady Deeprose of UK heavyweights Conjurer to dive into the mind and mechanics behind “Unself,” the band's towering third album. Formed in 2014, Conjurer has built a reputation for uncompromising heaviness, but this record pushes even deeper. Brady opened up about the thematic core of “Unself”—from misanthropy and addiction to nature, folklore, science, and human misery—and how these ideas shaped the album's writing and emotional weight. A thoughtful, intense look at a band refining their identity while expanding their sonic and lyrical reach. Tune in now and be sure to buy and stream Conjurer's new album Unself, out now worldwide via Nuclear Blast Records. Stay connected with Conjurer, visit: https://www.conjureruk.com/, https://www.instagram.com/conjureruk/ and https://www.facebook.com/conjurerukStay connected with IUF, visit: https://interviewunderfire.com/

Psychologists will tell you that human beings are formed not primarily by ideas, but by experiences that shape our inner world. A child becomes confident because they experience delight and acceptance from a parent. A person becomes anxious because they experience instability. A person becomes bitter after experiencing betrayal. Information is helpful. But experience is formative. Listen as Pastor Ryan walks with us through Acts 2.

Ever since her triumphant debut in Chaucer's Canterbury Tales, the Wife of Bath, arguably the first ordinary and recognisably real woman in English literature, has obsessed readers--from Shakespeare to James Joyce, Voltaire to Pasolini, Dryden to Zadie Smith. Few literary characters have led such colourful lives or matched her influence or capacity for reinvention in poetry, drama, fiction, and film. In The Wife of Bath: A Biography (Princeton UP, 2023), Marion Turner tells the fascinating story of where Chaucer's favourite character came from, how she related to real medieval women, and where her many travels have taken her since the fourteenth century, from Falstaff and Molly Bloom to #MeToo and Black Lives Matter. A sexually active and funny working woman, the Wife of Bath, also known as Alison, talks explicitly about sexual pleasure. She is also a victim of domestic abuse who tells a story of rape and redemption. Formed from misogynist sources, she plays with stereotypes. Turner sets Alison's fictional story alongside the lives of real medieval women--from a maid who travelled around Europe, abandoned her employer, and forged a new career in Rome to a duchess who married her fourth husband, a teenager, when she was sixty-five. Turner also tells the incredible story of Alison's post-medieval life, from seventeenth-century ballads and Polish communist pop art to her reclamation by postcolonial Black British women writers. Entertaining and enlightening, funny and provocative, The Wife of Bath is a one-of-a-kind history of a literary and feminist icon who continues to capture the imagination of readers.

In this episode of the XS Noize Podcast, Mark Millar is joined by guitarist and songwriter Cathal Mac Gabhann from Cork alt-rock and shoegaze outfit The Altered Hours — one of Ireland's most vital underground bands. The Altered Hours released their self-titled third album on November 7th via Pizza Pizza Records. Recorded to tape by analogue producer Julie McLarnon (New Order, Lankum, Happy Mondays), the album captures the band at their most raw, warm, and emotionally direct. Formed in 2010, the band have carved out a unique place in the European alternative scene through two albums, a run of EPs, and a reputation for immersive, fuzz-drenched live shows. Their independent spirit has earned them admiration from peers and fans alike. Cathal discusses the band's evolution, the creative shift behind the new record, and how recording to tape has brought out their most dynamic sound yet. He also reflects on touring with Fontaines D.C., playing venues like The Bataclan and Alexandra Palace, and stepping in as their live guitarist across Japan and Australia. Now signed to Pizza Pizza Records, The Altered Hours step confidently into a new phase — honouring their psych-rock roots while pushing into bolder, more atmospheric territory. Listen to Cathal Mac Gabhann discuss the making of the new album, the journey behind it, and where The Altered Hours go next — exclusively on the XS Noize Podcast.

Formed - Gratitude by Pastor Aaron Wallace

This week we're discussing every album by Turbonegro. Formed in the late 80s in Norway, Turbonegro has carved out their own unique and silly niche in punk. Raunchy lyrics, makeup, sailor hats, and an endless supply of denim are their most consistent themes.

We live in a culture that shames masculinity and leaves men confused about who they are and what they're called to. In this episode of the BraveCo Podcast, I share a message that's been burning in my heart: the journey from the promise to the promised land—and why the middle ground is where God actually forms us into the men we're meant to be. I talk about the “compass bearing” God gives us, the mountaintop goals we aim at, and the frustrating, winding road between where we are and where we know we're called to go.Using the stories of David, Joseph, Adam, and the Israelites, I unpack how God forms, fills, and finishes men in the middle. We look at caves, pits, deserts, and valleys—not as proof that God abandoned us, but as the forge where He shapes our character, teaches us to trust Him, and gets Egypt out of us. I share from my own journey of building BraveCo, walking through divorce, debt, fatherhood, and leadership, and how I've had to trade self-help-only solutions for real dependence on God, who promised to make my path straight.If you feel stuck, in-between, or discouraged because your reality doesn't yet match your promise, this episode is for you. My prayer is that you'll learn how to lean not on your own understanding, how to choose faith over fear, and how to see your middle ground as holy ground where God is actively forming you into a king. If this speaks to you, make sure you subscribe, share it with another man who needs it, and drop a comment about where God is meeting you in the middle right now.Chapters:00:00 Why Masculinity Is Under Attack (Intro)01:26 Finding Your Compass Bearing (Mount Shasta Story)03:12 The Painful Beauty of the Middle Ground04:25 My Story: Nerdy Kid with a King's Calling06:18 You Don't Make You—God Makes You08:35 Formed in the Middle: Adam & Assignment10:01 David's Cave Season: Learning to Be King12:46 Joseph's Pit, Prison & Promotion15:18 Finished in the Middle: Valleys, Wilderness & Your Next StepCONNECT WITH BRAVECOJoin Our Free Community for Men (ladies, sign up your man): https://www.braveco.orgFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/braveco.menInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/braveco.men/Shop: https://shop.braveco.org/ ABOUT BRAVECO: We live in a time where men are hunting for the truth and looking for the codebook to manhood. At BraveCo, we are on a mission to heal the narrative of masculinity across a generation; fighting the good fight together because every man should feel confident and capable of facing his pain, loving deeply, and leading a life that impacts the world around him.

How do we live our lives so that we seek the thriving of others? Paul tells us that we have fully formed lives and that we have recieved riches beyond our imagination. While we experience the joy of that gift, we need to continue to be generous so that other can expience the joy of that gift as well.  This week's message is brought to us by Pastor Jason. The lesson is from 2 Corinthians, Chapter 9, verses 7 - 15. The Gospel is from Luke, Chapter 24, verses 1-4.
