Podcast appearances and mentions of frank black

We're back with another AFTN Soccer Show packed full of Vancouver Whitecaps, Major League Soccer, and Canadian Premier League chat and interviews. It's been a dramatic week in the Vancouver football world and we have you covered with it all here on the podcast. The two biggest Whitecaps stories came off the pitch, with German legend Thomas Müller set to head to Vancouver in a shock transfer that would be the biggest signing in the club's history. Elsewhere, MLS commissioner Don Garber set tongues wagging when he said the Whitecaps' stadium situation was "not viable". We delve into both of those big stories on the show. On the pitch, the Whitecaps were back at home after five games on the road and came away with a dominant win over Sporting KC. We chat about the main talking points coming out of the match, Ranko Veselinovic being confirmed with a season-ending ACL injury, and Whitecaps head coach Jesper Sorensen talks to us about the All Star festivities, defensive cover for Ranko, and the well-needed break coming up for everyone. Our feature interview this week is with Sebastian Berhalter. It's been quite the summer and quite the first half of the year for the Whitecaps midfielder. We talk about his time away with the US national team, becoming a MLS All Star, and the season run in. Plus we hear from new interim Vancouver FC head coach Martin Nash as he takes over the reins of the CPL basement side after Afshin Ghotbi's dismissal. All of this and music-wise, Frank Black concludes his residency as our Album of the Month, we've Britpop songs from Ash and Perfume, and there's a Thomas Muller song in Wavelength.

We're back with another AFTN Soccer Show packed full of Vancouver Whitecaps, Major League Soccer, Canadian Premier League, and 2026 FIFA World Cup chat. The Whitecaps ended a tough five-game road stretch with a fairly decent record of two wins, one draw, and two defeats. The last of those matches saw them miss out on the chance to go back top of the Western Conference after a 1-1 draw at San Diego. We delve into the main talking points coming out of that, look at the lie of the land in the MLS West, chat about the upcoming all-star game, and the now finalised transfer of Pedro Vite. Details were finally released last week about FIFA's demands on the city of Vancouver for hosting next year's World Cup games here. We look at some of the main things that caught our eye and what locals can expect on and around match days. Plus there's still time to chat CPL, delve into our mailbag, and bring back our TVOD section to talk about a couple of football based television shows.

We're back with another AFTN Soccer Show packed full of Vancouver Whitecaps, Major League Soccer, Canadian Premier League, and Canadian Championship chat and we're joined this episode by AFTN writer Felipe Vallejo. Football brings highs and lows and if you're a Whitecaps fan, you've had some pretty wild swings of those in the past week as the team scraped by CPL side Valour FC in the Canadian Championship, lost heavily in MLS to Colorado Rapids, then bounced back in style and started to look a little bit like their old selves in a big win at Houston Dynamo four days later. We delve into the talking points coming out of those three matches and happenings off the pitch, as Pedro Vite gets transferred to Mexico and a new Peruvian is coming to town. Are the 'Caps set up for the season run-in? What are the expectations now? And what help is still needed? Plus there's still time to look at the upcoming Canadian Championship semi-finals and the tough task facing the Whitecaps, we cast our eyes over the first half of the 2025 CPL season, and talk about the FIFA Club World Cup final.

We're back with another AFTN Soccer Show packed full of Vancouver Whitecaps, Major League Soccer, FIFA Club World Cup, CONCACAF Gold Cup, Canadian Premier League, and Canadian Championship chat and interviews. It was a tough Friday night under the lights for the Whitecaps, falling 3-0 to MLS basement team LA Galaxy. What went wrong and is there genuine cause for concern or is this just down to the weakened squad from international duty and injuries? We delve into all of that and chat with the returning winger Jayden Nelson about his Gold Cup experiences with Canada, forward Nelson Pierre about signing his first team deal, and young Canadian Antoine Coupland about his MLS minutes, his first MLS goal, and his hopes for the future. Toronto FC fans were given a Canada Day gift by MLSE when they announced the release of Italian Designated Players Lorzeno Insigne and Federico Bernardeschi. We chat about how much of a bust they were in the grand scheme of things and talk Whitecaps DPs. Who have been the best and the worst DPs to pull on a blue and white jersey in Vancouver? Plus there's still time to talk about the Gold Cup final, the FIFA Club World Cup, Vancouver FC's loss to Forge in CPL action, and hear from Valour FC head coach Philip Dos Santos about his side's big quarter-final second leg coming up against the Whitecaps.

On Day 8 of Sean "Diddy" Combs' federal sex trafficking and racketeering trial, the courtroom heard critical testimonies from a forensic psychologist and a former executive assistant, shedding light on the alleged abusive dynamics within Combs' personal and professional life. Forensic psychologist Dr. Dawn Hughes testified about the psychological patterns commonly observed in abusive relationships, such as trauma bonding and victim behavior, without directly referencing Combs or specific accusers. Despite the defense's attempts to portray her as biased, Hughes maintained her neutrality and emphasized the complexities victims face in abusive situations. Her insights aimed to provide context to the behaviors and decisions of individuals involved in such relationships.As Day 8 of Sean "Diddy" Combs' federal sex trafficking and racketeering trial continued, former executive assistant George Kaplan provided detailed testimony about his tenure with Combs from 2013 to 2015. Kaplan described working extensive hours, often between 80 to 100 per week, and performing tasks that extended beyond typical assistant duties. He was responsible for booking hotel rooms under the alias "Frank Black," a nod to the late rapper Notorious B.I.G., and preparing them with specific items such as candles, baby oil, Astroglide, and liquor. Kaplan also testified that he procured drugs like MDMA and ketamine for Combs, sometimes using a corporate card, and maintained a kit containing various pills, including Advil and ketamine. He emphasized that these preparations were aimed at protecting Combs' public image, as hotels might sell compromising photos or videos of celebrities.Kaplan further recounted instances where he cleaned up hotel rooms after Combs' alleged "freak-off" sex parties, disposing of items like empty alcohol bottles, baby oil, and drugs, and tidying pillows to make it appear as if nothing had occurred. He mentioned encountering a brown crystallized powder in a bathroom during one cleanup. Kaplan testified that Combs frequently threatened his job, sometimes over minor issues, such as purchasing the wrong type of water bottles. He also stated that he left his position after witnessing Combs physically abuse his then-girlfriend, Cassie Ventura. Kaplan's testimony provides insight into the alleged operations within Combs' inner circle and supports the prosecution's narrative of a pattern of coercion and abuse.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:May 21, 2025 - Day 8 of testimony in the Sean ‘Diddy' Combs trial | CNN

We're back with another AFTN Soccer Show packed full of Vancouver Whitecaps, Major League Soccer, FIFA Club World Cup, CONCACAF Gold Cup, and Canadian national team chat and interviews, in what has very much been a week of highs and lows. It was an eventful week in Whitecapsland, both on and off the pitch. A defeat to a highly clinical San Diego side saw them lose first place in the MLS Western Conference, but they bounced back in style with an important win at their old nemesis LAFC. We delve into the main talking points coming out of both matches, look at what caught our eye with the latest salary releases, and talk about the 'Caps' All-Star selections. Our feature interview this episode is with the man that's guided the Whitecaps to their best ever start to a season, Danish head coach Jesper Sorensen. It's been a great start to the Sorensen era here in Vancouver, with a win percentage of almost 50%, battling for first place in MLS, and reaching the club's first continental cup final. We chat about all of that and settling into life in Vancouver in our extensive and exclusive interview. We also delve into Canada's shock defeat to Guatemala at the Gold Cup and what lessons need to be learned from it. Plus there's chat about the costs of Vancouver hosting next year's World Cup, the action at this year's FIFA Club World Cup, and the action packed BC derby in the CPL. Music-wise, a solo Pete Shelley wraps up his residency as our Album of the Month, while Frank Black begins his, we've a Britpop song from Dubstar, and we go back to 1975 in Wavelength. Here's the rundown for the main segments from the episode: 01.26: Intro - football pain 06.20: FIFA Club World Cup chat 22.40: Music chat - The Pixies, Glastonbury, karaoke highs and lows 28.10: Whitecaps salaries are out - what caught our eye 39.13: San Diego loss exposes some Whitecaps holes 52.30: Whitecaps bounce back to beat LAFC 67.30: Jesper Sorensen interview 106.53: Canada crash out of Gold Cup 136.50: Vancouver's World Cup hosting costs revealed 151.40: An eight-goal CPL BC derby spectacular 170.25: Wavelength - Bruce Thompson - My World Is A Football

Send us a textPete stops by the show to discuss The Dandy Warhols, Studio vs performing, when he learned guitar, and more.****Following a triumphant 2024 with the release of their overwhelmingly critic-hailed twelfth studio album ROCKMAKER featuring Frank Black, Slash, and Debbie Harry, a packed-to-the-gills national tour, and a completely sold out West Coast 30th Anniversary-as-a-band string of dates, Portland's iconoclastic and always surprising alt-rock band THE DANDY WARHOLS are returning to the road for a handful of East Coast shows that kick off on May 9th at Asbury Park, NJ's Stone Pony and wrap with a handful of NYC dates at Bowery Ballroom and Mercury Lounge.   Included in the dates is an intimate, acoustic-ish late afternoon performance on Saturday, May 17th at the sexy Two Fifteen Lounge in NYC's Public Hotel, preceding their show the same evening at Bowery Ballroom. Loose and loungey, the cozy event will allow fans to sip signature cocktails and rub elbows with the band (and get autographs and pics too!) before and after a very special and rare stripped down performance.Following last fall's revved-up and greased banger, “The Summer of Hate'' which Q Magazine called “buzz-heavy, raw punk” and Post-Punk.com “a dark-rock manifesto, fueled by gritty guitars and fuzzed-out vocals with a supple, sexy rhythm,” the new single opens the gates for the release of their twelfth album ROCKMAKER.  Always experimenting and pushing the boundaries of their own creativity (their previous album Tafelmuzik Means More When You're Alone was a three-and-a-half-hour exploration of what The AU Report characterized as a “soundtrack that would typically score a mid-16th century banquet”), this album delves deeper into minor guitar chords that often characterize post-punk, deep metal, or even goth.Sometimes we have a very focused idea of what we want,” Taylor-Taylor says. “It's generally what we want somebody else to make but since they never do, we have to. It has a very specific sound. There aren't a lot of heavy guitar records currently coming out that we like, so that was the impetus for ROCKMAKER.”******If you would like to contact the show about being a guest, please email us at Dauna@bettertopodcast.comUpcoming guests can be found: https://dmneedom.com/upcoming-guest Follow us on Social MediaInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/author_d.m.needom/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/bettertopodcastwithdmneedomIntro and Outro music compliments of Fast Suzi©2025 Better To...Podcast with D.

Diddy Trial Day 14: Hotel Records, Baby Oil, and Aliases: Inside the Wild Evidence Against Diddy In this episode, we break down one of the most jaw-dropping days in the federal criminal trial of Sean “Diddy” Combs. June 2, 2025, brought hard evidence into the courtroom: hotel records, alias logins, bizarre cleaning charges, and the looming presence of surveillance footage. Hotel records from the Beverly Hills Hotel revealed Combs frequently checked in under fake names like “Frank Black” and “Phillip Pines”—aliases that prosecutors say were used to conceal his identity during alleged drug- and sex-fueled encounters. Even more disturbing? Charges like $500 for “oil damage” to a private bungalow and $300 for “soiled drapes,” which the prosecution argues are linked to Combs's infamous “freak-off” parties involving excessive amounts of baby oil and controlled substances. But the biggest moment may still be coming. Before the jury arrived, the court debated the admissibility of a 2016 surveillance video that allegedly shows Combs violently assaulting Cassie Ventura in a hotel hallway. Prosecutors call it one of the most critical pieces of evidence in the entire trial, and it could soon be authenticated and shown in court. This case is no longer just about allegations—it's about corroboration. With receipts, surveillance footage, and witness testimony coming together, the prosecution's case is shifting from emotional to undeniable. And with cultural commentary flooding in—from President Trump being asked about a potential pardon, to Suge Knight speaking from prison—the Diddy trial is becoming bigger than one man. It's about an industry, a legacy, and who gets to stay untouchable. #KarenRead #SeanCombs #CassieVentura #TrueCrime #DiddyTrial #HotelEvidence #SurveillanceVideo #FreakOffs #AliasRevealed #CelebrityJustice Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?  Check out our YouTube Channel. https://www.youtube.com/@hiddenkillerspod Instagram https://www.instagram.com/hiddenkillerspod/ Facebook https://www.facebook.com/hiddenkillerspod/ Tik-Tok https://www.tiktok.com/@hiddenkillerspod X Twitter https://x.com/tonybpod Listen Ad-Free On Apple Podcasts Here: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/true-crime-today-premium-plus-ad-free-advance-episode/id1705422872

On Day 8 of Sean "Diddy" Combs' federal sex trafficking and racketeering trial, former executive assistant George Kaplan provided detailed testimony about his tenure with Combs from 2013 to 2015. Kaplan described working extensive hours, often between 80 to 100 per week, and performing tasks that extended beyond typical assistant duties. He was responsible for booking hotel rooms under the alias "Frank Black," a nod to the late rapper Notorious B.I.G., and preparing them with specific items such as candles, baby oil, Astroglide, and liquor. Kaplan also testified that he procured drugs like MDMA and ketamine for Combs, sometimes using a corporate card, and maintained a kit containing various pills, including Advil and ketamine. He emphasized that these preparations were aimed at protecting Combs' public image, as hotels might sell compromising photos or videos of celebrities.Kaplan further recounted instances where he cleaned up hotel rooms after Combs' alleged "freak-off" sex parties, disposing of items like empty alcohol bottles, baby oil, and drugs, and tidying pillows to make it appear as if nothing had occurred. He mentioned encountering a brown crystallized powder in a bathroom during one cleanup. Kaplan testified that Combs frequently threatened his job, sometimes over minor issues, such as purchasing the wrong type of water bottles. He also stated that he left his position after witnessing Combs physically abuse his then-girlfriend, Cassie Ventura. Kaplan's testimony provides insight into the alleged operations within Combs' inner circle and supports the prosecution's narrative of a pattern of coercion and abuse.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:May 21, 2025 - Day 8 of testimony in the Sean ‘Diddy' Combs trial | CNN

He was responsible for booking hotel rooms under the alias "Frank Black," a nod to the late rapper Notorious B.I.G., and preparing them with specific items such as candles, baby oil, Astroglide, and liquor. Kaplan also testified that he procured drugs like MDMA and ketamine for Combs, sometimes using a corporate card, and maintained a kit containing various pills, including Advil and ketamine. He emphasized that these preparations were aimed at protecting Combs' public image, as hotels might sell compromising photos or videos of celebrities.Kaplan further recounted instances where he cleaned up hotel rooms after Combs' alleged "freak-off" sex parties, disposing of items like empty alcohol bottles, baby oil, and drugs, and tidying pillows to make it appear as if nothing had occurred. He mentioned encountering a brown crystallized powder in a bathroom during one cleanup. Kaplan testified that Combs frequently threatened his job, sometimes over minor issues, such as purchasing the wrong type of water bottles. He also stated that he left his position after witnessing Combs physically abuse his then-girlfriend, Cassie Ventura. Kaplan's testimony provides insight into the alleged operations within Combs' inner circle and supports the prosecution's narrative of a pattern of coercion and abuse.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:May 21, 2025 - Day 8 of testimony in the Sean ‘Diddy' Combs trial | CNNBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-moscow-murders-and-more--5852883/support.

Cassie Breaks Down on the Stand: “I'd Give It All Back” in Diddy Trial The fifth day of Sean "Diddy" Combs' federal trial took a dark and undeniable turn. After four days of emotional, raw, and disturbing testimony from pop artist Cassie Ventura, prosecutors backed her story with hard evidence and a surprise witness. This video breaks down everything that unfolded on May 17, 2025, in court — and why it may become the most pivotal day of the entire trial. In the first half of the day, Cassie Ventura was pressed by the defense in a relentless cross-examination. They pulled up explicit texts, financial settlements, and the timeline of her accusations. But Cassie didn't waver. Through tears, she responded with chilling calm, telling the jury: “I'd give that money back if I never had to have freak-offs.” That quote alone left the courtroom in silence. She exited the stand, visibly pregnant, broken yet defiant. Then came Special Agent Yasin Binda of Homeland Security. Her testimony connected Cassie's claims to physical evidence. From multiple bottles of baby oil and professional lighting rigs to ketamine, ecstasy, and $9,000 in a fanny pack — the room looked less like a luxury suite and more like a stage for control. Notably, pill bottles were found labeled under the alias “Frank Black” — a name previously associated with Combs. The cherry on top? An external hard drive the prosecution has yet to unlock in court. Just when you thought it couldn't get darker, singer Dawn Richard stepped forward with a 2009 memory: Diddy allegedly attacking Cassie with a skillet, punching her, dragging her by her hair, then warning witnesses, “People who talk go missing.” The judge has yet to decide if her testimony will stay in the record. This isn't just a celebrity trial. It's a forensic, psychological, and deeply disturbing story of power and control. Watch now for the full breakdown of what could be the day that changes everything. #DiddyTrial #CassieVentura #TrueCrime #SexTrafficking #DawnRichard #FreakOffs #FederalTrial #JusticeForVictims #Diddy #BreakingNews Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

It's like… it's like a thing! And it does so much. It does a thing for the intellect. It does a thing for the emotions. Music can swell the heart ‘til it almost bursts! Tears of happiness flow out of your eyes. You can't believe the beauty that comes. And it comes from these notes!"  

So picture this: It's 1994. The Pixies had been music-world darlings for half a decade or so, releasing some incredible records before fizzling to a stop. Their enigmatic singer, Black Francis, changes his name (again—his parents named him Charles Thompson) to Frank Black and embarks on a solo career that feels a little vexing at the time. His self-titled debut felt deeply connected to his old band, but for the next one, he struck an even richer songwriting vein: The songs kept coming and they turned into the double album Teenager of the Year, recorded with a crack studio band that included Eric Drew Feldman of Pere Ubu both as a player and producer. Teenager of the Year wasn't particularly well received upon its release 30 years ago, but it has slowly been recognized as a high point in Black's career, celebrated as his masterpiece by those paying the closest attention. It may not get the widespread attention that Pixies' Doolittle does, but the love it gets might even run a little deeper, both from its creator and his biggest fans. It's meaningful enough that Black and the original band that created it have just embarked on an anniversary tour during which they'll play the whole record, and it's being re-released on gold vinyl, a gold record that should have been. You can find dates online, they'll be hitting major US cities throughout January, ending in New York February 1 before heading to Paris and London. As a high school student, Paul Banks came to the Pixies via a love of Nirvana, and eventually found his way to Teenager of the Year, an album that—as you'll hear in this conversation—was massively important to him. Banks would of course go on to form the band Interpol, for which he has been the singer and guitarist since 1997. Their latest is 2022's The Other Side of Make-Believe, but Interpol has also been revisiting a beloved album recently, touring on the anniversary of their classic second record, Antics. These two have a great chat about Teenager of the Year here, plus they talk about Black's kids and their musical ambitions, lyric writing in general, and the time Black was asked to audition for the part of a serial killer in a David Fincher movie. They also get into some specifics about Teenager of the Year songs, including a great story about album opener "Whatever Happened to Pong?" Enjoy.

In 1996, Jonny Polonsky greeted the world with his debut album 'Hi My Name is Jonny' on Rick Rubin's American Recordings Label. Since then, Jonny has continued to be a prolific singer/songwriter by writing catchy melodies, releasing solo albums, and collaborating with artists like Neil Diamond, Frank Black and Johnny Cash-- to name a few. That's why I was happy to invite Jonny on Waterproof Records this week to hear about the albums that changed his life, how he used the telephone to track down rock and roll mentors, and why it's always about the songwriting.  Learn more about your ad choices.

It's great to have an old friend on the show — and this week we've got Jonny Polonsky. Lucky you. This is a great episode where we talk to the great singer-songwriter-studio rat about moving to and prospering in LA, growing up as a backstage-teenaged Chicago presence, bossing around Rick Rubin, Mark Lanegan, playing on a Neil Diamond session, being Frank Black's boy, Chris Cornell & Dio, Gabe as Sid Haig, and Jonny's great new record that comes out June 7 on Loosegroove records.

The Dark Matter tour is now underway! As Pearl Jam took the stage this past weekend for two shows in Vancouver, we now know how the songs on the brand new record sound like, and know a little of how they'll be structured live. The tour will be addressed at the top of the show, but for more, tap into our reaction episodes over on our Patreon! The show we're covering in this episode preps us for next week's show in Sacramento as we'll breakdown Pearl Jam's show there from 1998. There is a notable running storyline in this show that will dominate the talking points. Back in 1998, Pearl Jam had invited legacy rock acts such as Iggy Pop, Cheap Trick and Frank Black to support them as their openers. Legendary punk band X took the stage at this show with the entire band watching them from the side stage. Eddie Vedder even introduced them onto the stage. While they were excited to witness the renowned Los Angeles band, it did not translate to the crowd in a way that satisfied Ed. He keeps a grudge with him the entire night featuring moments where he'd shout 'fuck you' and 'you really pissed me off tonight' in order to get his aggression out. A lot of the discussion will stem from the middle of the set where a lackluster demeanor was present, but there are also great moments here to address such as Spin The Black Circle to open the show, a firey Go to end the main set, Matt Cameron's first performance of In My Tree, and a version of Corduroy dubbed "slideuroy" that Javier will dig into featuring Mike using a slide pick on the song.
