Paul McCartney's incredible career began more than 60 years ago when he formed The Beatles with John Lennon, George Harrison, and Ringo Starr. Now, he's out with his latest solo album "The Boys of Dungeon Lane". In this week's Sitdown, Willie Geist gets together with McCartney to talk about his new music, that includes a song with The Beatles members.

Dr. Edwin "Ted" Bergin is Professor and Chair of Astronomy at the University of Michigan. Ted is an astrochemist who is interested in understanding how and why stars, planets, and living organisms came to be. He examines the formation of stars and planets to better understand the origins of Earth and life on Earth. Since the newly forming stars and planets he studies are so far away, Ted uses astronomical techniques to determine the presence and abundance of the molecules needed to form living things. When he's not pondering the origins of life, Ted loves spending time with his family. Recently, he began a quest to fulfill his lifelong dream of learning to play the guitar. Ted enjoys old school 1970s rock and roll music, and he is slowly working his way up to playing pieces like George Harrison's "Here Comes the Sun". He completed his undergraduate training in Astronomy at Villanova University, and he was awarded his PhD in Astronomy from the University of Massachusetts. Before joining the faculty at the University of Michigan, Ted worked as an astronomer/astrophysicist at the Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics. Ted has been awarded the University of Michigan Henry Russel Award for his exceptional scholarship and teaching. This is the highest award given to Assistant Professors. Ted joins us to talk about his experiences in life and science.

The fastest way to time-travel is to press play on a song you haven't heard in years, then realize you still know every word. We pull up the Billboard Hot 100 from May 23, 1981 and take it for a spin, bouncing between classic rock, radio pop, and the kind of tracks that were simply unavoidable if you lived anywhere near a car stereo or a skating rink.Along the way, we dig into what's actually happening inside these hits: Billy Squier's “The Stroke” as a music business story, Santana's “Winning” as a case of “this does not sound like Santana,” and the emotional weight of George Harrison's “All Those Years Ago,” made even heavier by the Beatles connections around it. We also hit Tom Petty's “The Waiting,” Hall and Oates' “You Make My Dreams,” and the early MTV effect that turned songs into permanent memories, for better or worse.Then we get personal: a Jefferson Starship chorus becomes a full-on dinner-table bit, Rick Springfield's “Jessie's Girl” comes with a wild songwriting backstory, and REO Speedwagon's “Take It On The Run” gets a deep breakdown of why a vocal and a guitar solo can feel like one continuous emotional punch. We close out the chart with the weird brilliance of Stars on 45 and the long reign of Kim Carnes' “Bette Davis Eyes,” then jump to a modern live-music recap featuring Kevin Kinney, Peter Buck, and a surprise Mike Mills appearance, plus a quick Ramones spotlight and a final Van Halen 5150 tangent.If you love 1980s music, classic rock storytelling, and honest takes on music history, subscribe, and share this with a friend who lived through it.Learn Something New orRemember Something OldPlease like and follow the Music in My Shoes Facebook and Instagram pagesReach out to us at musicinmyshoes@gmail.comSend us a one-way message.

This episode we look at the phenomena of hugely successful artists refusing to play the songs that made them! First among these is Radiohead, whose “Creep” launched them onto the world stage. Others include The Rolling Stones, Bob Dylan, Led Zeppelin, AC/DC, and Madonna. Our Album You Must Hear Before You Die is The Stranglers' 1977 debut, the excellent “Rattus Norvegicus”, yet another punk record from the mid-70s. Mick loves this album for its energy and refusal to bow down to supposed “punk” rules. We also look at some of the highlights of The Stranglers' outrageous career to this day. In Rock News, Jeff examines the success (or otherwise) of a Quebec band called Angine de Poitrine, known for their complex, “microtonal” compositions and absurdist public image, featuring oversized papier-mâché masks and black-and-white polka-dotted costumes. Imagine! Jeff also has a look at this year's inductees to the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame, including Iron Maiden, Phil Collins, and Joy Division, and our Rod Stewart moment looks at his relaxed attitude towards death.

Bassist Greg Norton was the George Harrison of the mighty Husker Du. While alpha's Bob Mould and Grant Hart competed for album space and song excellence, Greg remained a loyal soldier in the background playing his part well. When the band broke up in the late 80s, he changed careers and became a chef for a while. Finally in the last few years, a musical project has come along that's deserving of his massive talent - the all-star punk band Ultrabomb. The supergroup (members of Social Distortion and Soul Asylum round it out) just released their third album, The Bridges That We Burn which easily rivals anything their original bands released. Greg discusses his post-Husker Du years and his thoughts on those years and the history of Ultrabomb. We're lucky to hear from him. Enjoy! www.patreon.com/c/thehustlepod www.ultrabomb.bandcamp.com

What happens when you rescue a forgotten studio that once shaped American music history - and bring it roaring back to life?This week, I sat down with Teresa Knox, the powerhouse entrepreneur and preservationist behind the rebirth of The Church Studio in Tulsa, Oklahoma - the legendary home of Leon Russell, the early Shelter Records family, and the roots of what became known as the Tulsa Sound. Teresa shares the entire arc of this wild journey: from collecting Leon Russell Slurpee cups as an 8-year-old kid, to buying the abandoned church sight unseen, to rebuilding it from the ground up and restoring it as a world-class studio, museum, archive, and engineering school. We talk about the stunning history embedded in the building - the 1915 hand-built sanctuary, the 1972 Leon-era renovations, and what it really takes to preserve a place where so many iconic recordings were born.We dig deep into the music: Leon's time in the Wrecking Crew, his explosion after Mad Dogs & Englishmen, recording with George Harrison at the Concert for Bangladesh, and his early influence on players like Elton John and Glen Campbell. Teresa shares stories from the Shelter Records years - Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers arriving as Mudcrutch, J.J. Cale, The Gap Band, Phoebe Snow, Willis Alan Ramsey, Freddie King, and even Bob Marley & The Wailers turning the place into a Jamaican party. She walks us through the official Church Studio playlist, the discovery of original artifacts inside the walls, and why preserving the stories of these musicians matters just as much as preserving the building itself.Finally, we talk about the reconstruction: shoring up a collapsing foundation, solving electrical noise and RF issues, preserving historic architecture while building a modern studio, restoring a Neve 8068, installing two EMT 140 plates, and designing a hybrid analog/digital workflow. Teresa also explains how The Church Studio now trains new engineers through its hands-on vocational school, hosts sessions with top artists, runs a nonprofit to support musicians, and continues the legacy of Leon and the Tulsa Sound through events like CarniFest. Her passion for preservation, community, and world-class sound makes this one of the most inspiring studio stories I've ever heard.Get access to FREE mixing mini-course: https://MixMasterBundle.comTHANKS TO OUR SPONSORS!http://UltimateMixingMasterclass.comhttps://usa.sae.edu/ The next program starts May 11, 2026 https://www.izotope.com Use code ROCK10 to get 10% off!https://www.native-instruments.com Use code ROCK30 to get 1 month free of NI 360!https://www.spectra1964.comhttps://gracedesign.com/https://pickrmusic.com https://RecordingStudioRockstars.com/Academyhttps://www.thetoyboxstudio.com/Listen to the podcast theme song “Skadoosh!” https://solo.to/lijshawmusicListen to this guest's discography on Spotify:https://open.spotify.com/playlist/6BLaSUX1juRYH6jHHTfa6k?si=nZtNPzHDSXi0bVQnpSU43AIf you love the podcast, then please leave a review: https://RSRockstars.com/ReviewCLICK HERE FOR COMPLETE SHOW NOTES AT: https://RSRockstars.com/557

Sonny Rojas is twenty feet from famous, rubbing elbows with rock gods like Eric Clapton and Jimi Hendrix when his number is called. A night jump gone bad results in a devastating injury, followed by bungled surgery and dependence on painkillers.Busted at JFK after a stint working for George Harrison, Sonny is faced with a choice: prison or cooperation with the FBI in a drug smuggling operation.Thrust into a world he doesn't belong, Sonny uses his near-famous status to infiltrate the operation of a rock star wannabe drug lord, in the process endangering his life and the lives of his loved ones.In way over his head, the desperate rocker sinks deeper and deeper into a world from which there is no return.Support this show http://supporter.acast.com/houseofmysteryradio.

My guest today is Jim Windolf, who joins me to discuss 'Where The Music Had to Go - How Bob Dylan and The Beatles Changed Each Other - and the World'. Jim's book looks at the entwining careers of two of the 20th Century's most important musical artists, and details known meetings through the 60's and beyond - From Lennon's and McCartney's lyrical transformations to George Harrison's growth as a songwriter, Jim showcases the ripple effects of the Beatles-Dylan connection.
This month George Harrison would've turned 83. The “quiet Beatle” holds the record for THE most streamed Beatles song, his 1969 composition, “Here Comes The Sun,” but to the general public (and not the hardcores), he may remain in the shadow of Lennon and McCartney, despite his key contributions to songs bearing their names. Musician/podcaster Sam Popkin (Gear, There and Everywhere) joins the conversation for an examination/appreciation of what George brought to The Beatles, as well as his singular solo work. Sam also details the guitars and gear that facilitated George's evolution from a young rockabilly to a pioneer of world music and unique slide guitarist. This episode is brought to you by DistroKid and Magical Mystery Camp.

“If you play piano, bass guitar, saxophone, I don't care - I'll play with you all night. That's how I did it. And I tell all my grandkids - get an event, get a few of your schoolmates together. They're practising and playing by themselves. Get with people!”Regan Morris speaks to musician Ringo Starr about his career. Born in Liverpool, England, during the Second World War in 1940, Ringo, real-name Richard Starkey, found fame as the drummer of the legendary British band The Beatles - widely regarded as one of the most influential acts in music history.After joining John Lennon, Paul McCartney and George Harrison in 1962, the four-piece became a global pop music sensation through hits such as ‘She Loves You', ‘Yesterday', ‘Penny Lane', and ‘Hey Jude'. They also released multiple studio albums and starred in five major motion pictures.Although the band split up in 1970, their legacy continues to live on. They remain one of the best-selling musical acts of all time over half a century later. And such was his and the band's cultural impact, that Ringo, one of two surviving members of The Beatles, received a knighthood at Buckingham Palace for his services to music in 2018.But despite achieving seemingly all that can be achieved in a music career, the 85-year-old seems to be showing no interest in retirement — he's just released his third country album, which is his 22nd album as a solo artist.

Was it really a mistake—or just a moment in time?When Dick Rowe passed on The Beatles after their now-legendary Decca audition in 1962, it became one of the most debated decisions in music history. But is it fair to criticize him for it? In this episode highlight, featuring insights from Stuart Maconie, author of With a Little Help from Their Friends: The Beatles and the People Who Made Them, we take a closer look at the context behind that decision—what Rowe actually heard, the state of the music industry at the time, and whether history has judged him too harshly. Was this truly the biggest mistake in rock… or a reasonable call given the moment?Listen to Episode 374 - Who Really Shaped The Beatles? The Story Behind the Band - With Stuart Maconie
pWotD Episode 3277: Dave Mason Welcome to popular Wiki of the Day, spotlighting Wikipedia's most visited pages, giving you a peek into what the world is curious about today.With 202,462 views on Wednesday, 22 April 2026 our article of the day is Dave Mason.David Thomas Mason (10 May 1946 – 19 April 2026) was an English singer-songwriter and guitarist, who came to prominence in 1967 as a founding member of the rock band Traffic. He wrote and sang lead vocals on two of the band's most famous songs, "Hole in My Shoe" and "Feelin' Alright?" His song "Only You Know and I Know" became a signature song for Delaney & Bonnie, and "We Just Disagree", Mason's 1977 solo U. S. hit, written by Jim Krueger, has become a staple of U. S. classic hits and adult contemporary radio playlists.After leaving Traffic he pursued a solo career and recorded with artists including George Harrison, the Rolling Stones, Jimi Hendrix, Eric Clapton, Paul McCartney and Wings, Michael Jackson, David Crosby, Graham Nash, Steve Winwood, Fleetwood Mac, Delaney & Bonnie, Leon Russell, and Cass Elliot.In 2004, Mason started an electric guitar company with business partner and industrial designer Ravi Sawhney, the same year as he was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.This recording reflects the Wikipedia text as of 02:48 UTC on Thursday, 23 April 2026.For the full current version of the article, see Dave Mason on Wikipedia.This podcast uses content from Wikipedia under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License.Visit our archives at wikioftheday.com and subscribe to stay updated on new episodes.Follow us on Bluesky at @wikioftheday.com.Also check out Curmudgeon's Corner, a current events podcast.Until next time, I'm generative Matthew.
Sandy recently sat down with legendary guitarist, singer-songwriter and founding member of Traffic, Dave Mason, for a candid and often humorous look back at a remarkable life in music.Dave reflects on his early beginnings, revealing how a failed ambition to join the Royal Air Force led him instead toward music—a path he committed to in his teens after forming his first bands. He shares how his connection with Steve Winwood and others came about, giving insight into the organic, free-spirited formation of Traffic during the vibrant 1960s music scene.The conversation explores Dave's songwriting journey, including the creation of classics like “Hole in My Shoe” and the enduring anthem “Feelin' Alright.” He explains how his early lack of life experience pushed him to seek inspiration abroad, ultimately shaping some of his most iconic work. Dave also reflects on the tensions within Traffic, driven by differing musical directions, which led to his eventual departure.Moving into his solo career, Dave discusses working alongside music giants such as Jimi Hendrix, George Harrison and Paul McCartney. He speaks with admiration about Hendrix in particular, describing him as truly one of a kind.Throughout the interview, Dave offers a grounded perspective on fame, creativity and longevity. He opens up about lessons learned, especially around the business side of music, and shares his philosophy of “travelling light”—not dwelling on the past but continuing to move forward.There's also discussion about his more recent work, including new music like “Mangos,” written during his time in Maui, and his reimagined album Alone Together Again. Dave touches on the challenges facing today's music industry, from streaming to the decline of traditional radio, while emphasising that live performance remains at the heart of his connection with audiences.Despite his legendary status, Dave remains refreshingly humble, describing himself simply as a “singer-guitar player.” His passion for music is as strong as ever, and his story is one of resilience, creativity and a lifelong dedication to his craft.Dave Mason passed away on April 19 2026 at the age of 79. According to his wife, Winifred - he had just cooked a great meal, sat down on his favourite chair, closed his eyes .. and slipped away.#dave mason #traffic #british guitar legent

On this episode, we pay tribute to Dave Mason — co-founder of Traffic and the iconic voice behind “We Just Disagree.” The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame–inducted guitarist, also known for “Only You Know and I Know,” has passed away at the age of 79. According to a statement shared with Rolling Stone, Mason's family expressed “deep and profound sadness,” honoring a life devoted to music and the people he loved. No cause of death has been announced. Throughout his legendary career, Mason recorded and performed with an incredible list of artists, including Paul McCartney, George Harrison, The Rolling Stones, Jimi Hendrix, Eric Clapton, Michael Jackson, David Crosby, Graham Nash, Steve Winwood, Fleetwood Mac, Delaney Bramlett, and Cass Elliot. Born on May 10, 1946, in Worcester, England, Mason overcame major challenges early in life—including a severe childhood accident that left him hospitalized for 18 months and forced him to relearn how to walk. That resilience carried through a lifetime of music that continues to inspire generations. #DaveMason #TrafficBand #WeJustDisagree #ClassicRock #RockLegend #RIPDaveMason #GuitarLegend #RockAndRollHallOfFame #MusicHistory #70sRock #SteveWinwood #EricClapton #JimiHendrix #RockTribute #LegendaryMusicians
In this episode of Booked On Rock, we step into the vibrant and transformative world of 1968—a time when music, culture, and creativity were colliding like never before.Author Barry Greenfield joins the show to discuss his novel All You Need Is Courage, the story of Adam Bond, a young Canadian songwriter chasing his dreams in the heart of London's booming music scene. From the halls of Apple Records to working alongside legends like George Harrison, John Paul Jones, and Nicky Hopkins, Adam's journey captures the excitement—and the uncertainty—of a life in music during one of its most revolutionary eras.We dive into the inspiration behind the book, the cultural backdrop of late-'60s London, and what it really takes to pursue a dream when the stakes are high and the path is anything but certain. It's a story about ambition, vulnerability, and the courage to keep moving forward—no matter what.Purchase a copy of All You Need Is Courage through BarryGreenfieldMusic.com----------

“When you hand it to the composer in sonic branding, at that point, it becomes an art, because the job of the composer, of course, is to translate those desired emotions into music. And it's not [the] music that the composer feels, it is what it makes the audience feel when they hear it, and that is almost pure art. We have done some science around it, and we know what might help in terms of instrumentation and timbre and pitch and all that sort of stuff, but, at the bottom line, the sonic logo is only going to be as good as the composer. They are the most important person in a sonic branding project, bar none.” – David Courtier-DuttonThis episode's guest is the founder and CEO of SoundOut, and he's on a mission to prove that sound isn't just art – it's strategy. From building the world's largest music testing platform to decoding how sonic logos tap straight into our memory and emotions, he's turned the science of sound into a tool that brands can't ignore, and he's worked with such brands as Amazon, TikTok, Netflix, Sky, and Target to help optimize their sonic branding and marketing.His name is David Courtier-Dutton, and we'll be talking about what makes audio unforgettable, how data reveals our hidden reactions to music, and where the future of audio branding might be headed.As always, if you have questions for my guest, you're welcome to reach out through the links in the show notes.

I would so appreciate that.(00:00) – David's Earliest Memories of SoundOur discussion starts off with a pivotal moment in David's childhood, and in the years that followed, that taught him the power of sound. “It seared that moment in my brain,” he says, recalling George Harrison's song “Give Me Love (Give Me Peace on Earth), “of all the very few memories you have when you're six, seven years old. It just stuck with me. And I lost the song for probably about thirty years or so. And then when I heard it again, I was straight back in that little car, absolutely transfixed by the radio at that point.” We talk about his journey from corporate law to sonic branding, and how it coincided with the dramatic changes that MySpace and social media brought to the music industry. “The industry appeared to be facing existential moments,” David recalls. “So I thought, ‘well, wouldn't it be great, if the industry is going to go away and fans can connect with the bands, why don't we create a business that enables the fans to invest in the bands themselves and actually finance them?”(15:00) – Understanding the Role of Sonic BrandingDavid shares his observations on audio branding and the mistakes that can derail an agency's search for the right sonic logo. “They get really attached to the sounds,” he explains, “and they start reading things into the options and the logos that perhaps don't exist. They forget that this sonic logo will just be pinged out across the airwaves and listened to fleetingly by consumers, and you can really overthink it.” He tells us about SoundOut's pioneering brand study, its methodology, and what it's revealed so far about successful sonic branding. “From that historic data,” he says, “the key data point was that if you have your [brand] name in your sonic logo, then people were twice as likely to attribute it to the brand as if it wasn't in. So that's powerful. That's a good argument for putting the name in.”(23:00) – Insights from the SoundOut IndexAs the first half of our conversation wraps up, David offers more insights from the SoudOut study and what they tell us about successful sonic branding. “If you've got three seconds or two seconds to create a logo,” he notes, “you're not going to create something that has a hook as strong as Katy Perry or whatever it may be. It's always going to be a short snippet of a melody.” We discuss the surprising gap the index revealed between what consumers think they know and what they actually know when it comes to brand recognition, and the advantage sound has over other, more traditional marketing. “People can't block their ears,” David tells us. “They can look away, they can be doing something else at the same time, but you can't close off your ears [or] your ability to listen and for those connections to be made. So it's a very subversive way of marketing, but highly effective.”Episode SummaryDavid shares his journey from a London law firm to music and marketing.How traditional branding can lead agencies astray when it comes to sonic logos.David discusses SoundOut's five-year study of audio branding and recognition.Tune in for next week's episode as we talk about the unique audio branding challenge companies like Visa and Mastercard face, what role human creatives might play in a market that's increasingly giving way to AI, and how audio branding can help companies rise above the algorithmic noise.Connect with the Audio Branding Podcast:Book your project with Voice Overs and Vocals by visiting https://voiceoversandvocals.comConnect with me on Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/jodikrangle/Watch the Audio Branding Podcast on YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/c/JodiKrangleVOConnect with me on LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/jodikrangle/Leave the Audio Branding Podcast a review at https://lovethepodcast.com/audiobranding (Thank you!)Share your passion effectively with these Tips for Sounding Your Best as a Podcast Guest!https://voiceoversandvocals.com/tips-for-sounding-your-best-as-a-podcast-guest/Get my Top Five Tips for Implementing an Intentional Audio Strategyhttps://voiceoversandvocals.com/audio-branding-strategy/Editing/Production by Humberto Franco - https://humbertofranco.com/This podcast uses the following third-party services for analysis: OP3 - https://op3.dev/privacy

Documentary producer & record collector Jeanne Elfant Festa has made films about The Beatles, Foo Fighters, Pavarotti, Bee Gees and more. Today she discusses her latest movie on Billy Preston — revealing rare archive footage, Olivia Harrison's key role, and Eric Clapton's emotional on-camera tribute and a lot more. Check outtrailer and documentary screenings here Topics Include: Jeanne lost her entire vinyl collection in the Palisades fire. Her family and animals all escaped the fire safely. A custom-built, mathematically designed sound room housed the collection. Rebuilding takes time — the turntable alone hasn't been replaced yet. Music passion began with her Brooklyn-raised parents' rich jazz collection. Her dad snuck into the Apollo Theater via the fire escape. He carried a saxophone, jamming with musicians at the loading dock. The family soundtrack: Billie Holiday, Dinah Washington, Miles Davis, Charlie Parker. Jeanne and her dad bonded over Bruce Springsteen's sax player. Her father did house calls exclusively for one patient — Miles Davis. Storytelling instincts came from parents who loved plays, movies, and performance. Her own record collection ranged from Rage Against the Machine to Supertramp. Vinyl's tactile magic: liner notes, textures, and each album's unique smell. Albums are movies — side one plays straight through, no skipping. Documentary filmmaking is passion-driven, not a path to big money. The Foo Fighters doc came from being in the right place. Business partner Nigel Sinclair's credits include Bob Dylan and George Harrison docs. Billy Preston first entered her life through her parents' living room stereo. Filming subjects who've passed requires diaries, archives, and extraordinary research teams. A granddaughter's undeveloped home movies transformed the Beach Boys documentary entirely. A stranger's undeveloped Beatles footage, found under a childhood bed, changed everything. Olivia Harrison unlocked archive footage and connected the team to Ringo and Clapton. Eric Clapton opened up in a way rarely seen on camera. Documentary ethics: three sources minimum, no gossip, no stunt casting ever. The Billy Preston film explores forgiveness, contradiction, and the full human condition.

Paul McCartney publica nuevo disco, el día 29 de mayo, "The Boys Of Dungeon Lane", erá su primera entrega en seis años y, por lo visto, una de las más personales de su carrera ya que repasa episodios de su juventud antes de convertirse en una estrella y muestra a un Paul McCartney en el Liverpool de posguerra, con recuerdos de su infancia donde alude a su vida familiar y a sus primeras experiencias musicales junto a John Lennon y George Harrison. Es decir, es “historia antes de la historia” y comienza con la canción que hoy protagoniza este podcast, "Days We Left Behind". Escuchamos también a Greg Mendez con uno de los dos singles que acaba de publicar, "Gentle Love", a Taylor Swift con "Elizabeth Taylor", canción que corresponde a su último video clip donde rinde homenaje a la actriz, a través de secuencias de algunas de sus películas más emblemáticas, y también compartimos lo nuevo de los californianos, Muna, la reivindicativa " Big Stick".

The Band -Music From Big Pink (Capitol Records)Released- July 1-1968 Music from Big Pink by The Band is widely considered one of the most influential American albums of the late 1960s. Produced by John Simon, the record introduced a sound rooted in country, gospel, blues, and folk rather than the psychedelic style dominating the era. The group's classic lineup—Robbie Robertson, Levon Helm, Rick Danko, Richard Manuel, and Garth Hudson—created a uniquely collaborative identity built around shared vocals, understated musicianship, and rich keyboard textures.Songs such as “The Weight,” “Tears of Rage,” and “I Shall Be Released” blended spiritual imagery, storytelling, and roots traditions into a deeply human musical statement. Drawing inspiration from their time working with Bob Dylan and living together near Woodstock, the album helped establish the foundations of what would later be called Americana. Its earthy authenticity and ensemble approach influenced artists from Eric Clapton to George Harrison and remains a landmark in rock history.
We remember martial arts champion turned Hollywood action hero Chuck Norris, who died last week at age 86. In addition to his many kung fu and action films, he was the star of the long-running TV show, ‘Walker, Texas Ranger.' He spoke with Terry Gross in 1988 about the karate he learned while stationed in Korea. Also, we remember Tex-Mex musician Augie Meyers of the Texas Tornadoes, who died March 7 at age 85. His signature sound was created on the vox organ, an instrument made in Britain. When he went to England in the ‘60s he got a call at his hotel. “George Harrison and John Lennon called the hotel and wanted me to come to the studio because they wanted to see how they had a vox organ but they couldn't get the sound I had out of mine,” he told Terry Gross in 1990.

Our goal for 2026 is 100,008 Śrīmad-Bhāgavatams; this is not a new goal. We set this goal five years ago, in 2021, and said, "By 2026, we develop the capacity." We have the capacity to distribute worldwide at least 100,008 Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam sets. So, how would we do this? With Jaladūta consciousness. Prabhupāda got on a boat and came all the way to America with the expectation of spreading Kṛṣṇa consciousness all over the world. His disciples—especially we think of the three householder couples who flew to London without knowing anybody there and really not having any resources or money— just like Prabhupāda when he came to America. And if you read the book Miracle on Second Avenue, I guarantee you will be thrilled at every moment, and tears will come to your eyes when you read the way that the devotees followed Prabhupāda's footsteps in Jaladūta consciousness—eventually establishing Kṛṣṇa consciousness in London, meeting George Harrison, and then subsequently it spread it all over Europe and around the world. The work of other disciples as well, in many different places, was equally daring and active in Prabhupāda's service. When I read that book, I think, 'Where have I been all my life? Let me try something daring—daring and active.' Otherwise, what's life for? It's not a 'prevent defense' to just try to stay alive somehow or other. We should try to do something bold because, as Virgil said, 'Fortune favors the bold.' And if we develop this Jaladūta consciousness, each of us individually, and do our level best, we don't have to imitate anyone else. But we should feel that sense of spiritual anxiety: "What can I do for Śrīla Prabhupāda to help expand the movement? What risk can I take?" Then we'll be in a very good state of consciousness for taking shelter of Kṛṣṇa. ------------------------------------------------------------ To connect with His Grace Vaiśeṣika Dāsa, please visit https://www.fanthespark.com/next-steps/ask-vaisesika-dasa/?utm_source=youtube&utm_medium=video&utm_campaign=launch2025 https://vaisesikadasayatra.blogspot.com/ ------------------------------------------------------------ Add to your wisdom literature collection: https://iskconsv.com/book-store/?utm_source=youtube&utm_medium=video&utm_campaign=launch2025 https://www.bbtacademic.com/books/?utm_source=youtube&utm_medium=video&utm_campaign=launch2025 https://thefourquestionsbook.com/?utm_source=youtube&utm_medium=video&utm_campaign=launch2025 ------------------------------------------------------------ Join us live on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/FanTheSpark/ Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/sound-bhakti/id1132423868 For the latest videos, subscribe https://www.youtube.com/@FanTheSpark For the latest in SoundCloud: https://soundcloud.com/fan-the-spark ------------------------------------------------------------ #bhadra2026 #bhadrapurnima #bookdistribution #sankirtan #spiritualawakening #soul #spiritualexperience #spiritualpurposeoflife #spiritualgrowthlessons #secretsofspirituality #vaisesikaprabhu #vaisesikadasa #vaisesikaprabhulectures #spirituality #bhaktiyoga #krishna #spiritualpurposeoflife #krishnaspirituality #spiritualusachannel #whybhaktiisimportant #whyspiritualityisimportant #vaisesika #spiritualconnection #thepowerofspiritualstudy #selfrealization #spirituallectures #spiritualstudy #spiritualquestions #spiritualquestionsanswered #trendingspiritualtopics #fanthespark #spiritualpowerofmeditation #spiritualteachersonyoutube #spiritualhabits #spiritualclarity #bhagavadgita #srimadbhagavatam #spiritualbeings #kttvg #keepthetranscendentalvibrationgoing #spiritualpurpose
And once again my voice has a case of Peter Brady. I need to quit recording late at night. We have a variety of diss tracks here for you, all but one of them dating back to before they were even called such a thing, before the rise of hip-hop music. This isn’t to take away from the overall impact of hip-hop on modern music but rather to demonstrate that, once again, what came before can have an influence on what we have now. Kitty Wells walked so that George Harrison could run, and all that. But this was, in fact, a fun episode to research and write, and I think we may need to take another dive into this subgenre of music in a future episode. Click here for a transcript of this episode.

Patrick opens with thoughts on how smartphones at the table subtly alter relationships, then fields calls about forgotten saints like Hildegard of Bingen, the oddities of canonization, and whether attending a bridal shower at a cohabiting couple’s place sends the wrong message. Questions zigzag across everything from the possibility of George Harrison’s late return to faith, the connection between classic movie scores and traditional masterpieces, to the enigma of why people say "River Jordan" instead of "Jordan River." Humor, moral wrestling, and unpredictable detours abound as Patrick guides listeners through faith, music, and modern life’s small provocations.

Content WarningThis episode contains detailed descriptions of poisoning and prolonged death. Support resources are listed at the end of these notes.This EpisodeSeason 39: The Balham Mystery. For seventy-two hours, Charles Bravo lay dying at The Priory while doctors—including Queen Victoria's own physician—watched helplessly. He suffered. He convulsed. He said almost nothing about who poisoned him.One woman claims she heard a confession. No one else heard a word. Was it truth, or a convenient lie to make murder look like suicide?The VictimCharles Bravo had three days to name his killer—and chose silence.From April 18th to April 21st, 1876, the thirty-year-old barrister endured unimaginable suffering at The Priory in Balham. The antimony that had entered his system through his bedside water destroyed him methodically—causing relentless vomiting, organ failure, and slow collapse.Throughout his ordeal, Charles remained lucid for extended periods. He could speak. He could understand questions. Yet when doctors pressed him about what he had taken, he mentioned only rubbing laudanum on his gums for a toothache. When they begged him to name anyone who might have harmed him, he said nothing useful.The CrimeThe parade of physicians began within hours of Charles's collapse. Dr. Joseph Moore arrived first, administering mustard water to induce vomiting—standard treatment for suspected poisoning. By morning, Charles's condition had deteriorated so drastically that Florence summoned reinforcements.Dr. George Harrison came from London. Dr. Royes Bell, a specialist in internal medicine, examined the patient. None could identify the poison or stop its progress. Charles vomited until nothing remained. His body rejected water, medicine, even champagne.On April 20th, Sir William Gull arrived—the physician to Queen Victoria herself. His verdict was grim: Charles was beyond saving. Whatever poison he had ingested, the damage was irreversible.The InvestigationThe alleged confession came from Jane Cannon Cox, Florence's companion. According to Mrs. Cox, Charles turned to her in the sickroom and whispered: "I took poison. Don't tell Florence."Five words that could explain everything—or nothing at all.But the housemaid Mary Ann Keeber was present in that room for much of the ordeal. She heard no such statement. The doctors who questioned Charles directly received no confession. Only Mrs. Cox, alone and uncorroborated, claimed to hear Charles take responsibility for his own death.Sir William Gull made his own attempt. "Did you take anything to cause this illness?" he asked. Charles reportedly answered: "I took nothing intentionally."Nothing intentionally. The words of a man who did not know how poison entered his body? Or a man protecting someone else?Historical ContextOur Sponsors:* Check out BetterHelp: https://www.betterhelp.com* Check out Kensington Publishing: https://www.kensingtonbooks.comSupport this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/foulplay/donationsAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

This is a tribute to Bert Kaempfert, German orchestra leader and songwriter who was responsible for some of the biggest and most important songs of the pop era, including signature hits of Frank Sinatra and Wayne Newton. And he had a major impact on the career of the Beatles too.Kaemphert was born in Hamburg in 1923 and studied at the Hamburg School of Music. He formed an orchestra and had his first hit in 1960 with “Wonderland By Night”, which turned him and the orchestra into international stars. In 1961 he launched the recording career of the Beatles when he produced a song called “My Bonnie” for Tony Sheridan and hired the Beatles as the backing band. At the same session he recorded the Beatles first singles, “Ain't She Sweet” sung by John Lennon, and “Cry For A Shadow”, a song composed by John and George Harrison.Kaempfert composed the music to “Strangers In The Night” for Sinatra. Jimi Hendrix worked a bit of that song into his solo in “Wild Thing” at the Monterey Pop Festival in 1967. And Kaempfert wrote the music for the song “Danke Schoen”, which to this day is Wayne Newton's best known song.Kaempfert also wrote the music for the song “L-O-V-E” which was a hit for Nat King Cole, and “A Swingin Safari”, which became the theme song for “The Match Game” on TV. —----------------------------------------------------------- The Follow Your Dream Podcast:Top 1% of all podcasts with Listeners in 200 countries!

It's one of the biggest albums of the late 1980's. No, not “Small World”, Huey Lewis & The News' misguided attempt at a jazz-pop record that sadly gave us a song called “Bobo Tempo”, and can be found in near mint condition for a dollar in used record bins across the country. Rather, dear bleeder, it's George Harrison's comeback album, “Cloud 9”. Led by its spirited cover of “Got My Mind Set On You”, and the unofficial theme to Disney's Mulan (“Breath Away from Heaven”), this is a record that's held up through the years as one of the best by a solo Beatle not named “Pete”. Tony & T.J. continue their deep-dish of this legendary album, as they explore questions about fonts, album covers, Weird Al, random Billy Joel deep cuts, and more; like:
Ep. 225 (Part 2 of 2) | In Part 2 of our eloquent, passionate, and humorous, dialogue with comedian John Fugelsang, author of the important and irreverent book, Separation of Church and Hate: A Sane Person's Guide to Taking Back the Bible from Fundamentalists, Fascists, and Flock-Fleecing Frauds, we come to understand what fundamentalism is, and what it signifies for our culture, our politics, and our future. John outlines five common features that characterize fundamentalism across religious traditions, pointing out that fundamentalist Christians have more in common with fundamentalist Muslims than they do with moderate and liberal Christians. “I go after fundamentalists of all religions,” John says, “because it's turning people off to faith—ruining Christianity, ruining Islam, ruining Judaism.” This is the tragedy for John and what fuels his passion for calling out the hypocrites who do hateful things in the name of religion.John also enlightens us as to what Christian nationalism is all about, starting way back: “In the U.S., our history of Christianity is inseparable from our history of white supremacy.” Christian nationalism's religion is power—a gospel of domination over love. Authoritarian leaders and their followers all worship power, he continues, and fills us in on how Christian nationalism is playing out in Russia now. John's own message is not hateful; his intention is to make it clear that Jesus always taught love and kindness; to suggest that if the Church wants to survive, it needs to go back to the teachings of Jesus; and to help us come together in a common understanding of fundamental values. “It's hard to love the bigot in your family,” John says. But we can “…hold to the deepest values, the most love, and do what needs to be done with love. We can't hate the haters back, but we have to beat them without hating them—that's the challenge.” Recorded December 18, 2025.“The greatest tragedy to me is when people think that something is religion and don't realize it's just fundamentalism.”Topics & Time Stamps – Part 2Fundamentalist Christians have more in common with fundamentalist Muslims than they do with moderate & liberal Christians (00:39) 5 common features of fundamentalism across traditions: women are inferior, violence is okay, punishment over healing & a victimhood complex (00:51)MLK was deeply unpopular at the time of his death—just like Jesus (03:43)Every generation there's a new word to smear the virtues of love, empathy & caring for others (05:01)Christian nationalism: a gospel of domination over love (07:59)Prosperity gospel: God will reward you if you give to our Church (09:50)Christian nationalism in Russia (13:47)Authoritarian leaders & followers all worship power (15:34)If the Church wants to survive, they need to go back to the teachings of Jesus (17:28)Recreating Jesus as a white guy led to centuries of racism and cruelty (19:55)Using the Bible as camouflage: most people haven't read it & figure others haven't either (21:06)What weirdness in the Bible stands out most for John?

The 1960s weren't just a musical revolution—they were a spiritual one. In this episode, we reflect on George Harrison's role in that shift: from global superstardom to sincere spiritual seeker. After "meeting everyone worth meeting" and reaching the height of fame, George realized something was still missing. That insight led him beyond counterculture and into mantra meditation, the Bhagavad-gītā, and open support of Krishna consciousness. We explore how his faith, humility, and conviction helped carry the Hare Krishna mantra into the mainstream—and why his search for a "higher taste" still resonates today. ******************************************************************** LOVE THE PODCAST?
