Among the legendary singers of the 27 Club who captivated the world with their music and lyrics, is a woman who is not as well known—one whose powerful voice and thought-provoking lyrics set her apart from the men dominating the industry. Mia Zapata and her band, The Gits, were on the verge of becoming a household name in Seattle's grunge and punk rock scene when everything was ripped away one night in July of 1993. Mia Zapata's violent murder shocked Seattle as a whole. Who would want to kill a woman, with no enemies, who was so dynamic, vibrant, and creative, and how did they get away with murder for a decade?Connect with us on Social Media!You can find us at:Instagram: @bookofthedeadpodX: @bkofthedeadpodFacebook: The Book of the Dead PodcastTikTok: BookofthedeadpodOr visit our website at www.botdpod.comABOUT — The Gits.

This week on The KOKO Show the band is back together to celebrate the fun, frivolity and fineries that finals footy has to offer. We tackle all the action of the Super Rugby Qualifying Finals, whilst also looking forward to the seismically sensational Semi-Finals this coming weekend. Plus, we get a little naughty up North for all the footy loving legends on the more populous side of the Equator, breaking down all the Champagne rugby from the URC and Premiership Semi-Finals. To help us on our journey towards podcasting perfection, we enlisted the help of one of the greatest finishers of all time to dot this episode over the white line and claim victory for the good guys. This Fijian born South Auckland raised wrecking ball made a career out of cashing cheques and snapping necks as he ran past you at a rate of knots, please welcome the swan-diving sensation that is Mr Joe Rokocoko. With Joe in tow the lads reflect on his sublime 98 Test Match career, the times he made all three of them look like chumps and what it actually takes to be one of the best wingers the rugby world has ever seen. To cap off this tremendous trot down the wingers walk of fame the lads finalise a few more selections in our table topping team of ‘Lion Tamers'. Moreover, they have a greasy little gander at some hot off the press ‘Other Rugby News', all in the name of keeping you, our loyal listener well informed. So, book yourself a Swedish hot stone massage, sip on the complementary ice cold cucumber water and bluetooth your way into some KOKO bliss. It is now time for an all new episode of Kick Offs and Kick Ons.TIMESTAMPS:00:00 - Start of the show03:15 - KOKO Learnings - The boys are playing footy again07:55 - Live Show dates are coming 08:34 - Swoop's unregistered car story 11:00 - Drew meeting his rugby mentor in the Gold Coast 12:46 - Drew and Gits headed up to Brisbane to promote KOKO18:48 - Congratulations to Carlo Tizzano and Emma on their engagement 20:46 - Rugby Round Up Segment 21:04 - CRUSADERS V REDS REVIEW 24:04 - CHIEFS V BLUES REVIEW 26:00 - BRUMBIES V HURRICANES 29:06 - Super Rugby Semi Finals Predictions 32:55 - Introduce the Joe Rokocoko interview 34:43 - Joe talks about playing the KOKO boys 36:23 - Joe's time in France 38:54 - Joe's fondest memories in his career 40:15 - Joe's biggest mentors 42:56 - Joe on playing against Wendell 45:31 - Joe's try celebrations 48:28 - Best winger Joe ever faced 50:44 - Bench, Start and Drop 55:14 - Joe's take on the current Blues side 55: 51 - Joe's All Blacks back 3 58:08 - Joe's take on the Wallabies v ABs59:13 - Joe's prediction of the 2025 Lions Series 01:01:03 - Northern Hemisphere Legends Segment 01:05:22 - The Lion Tamers 01:07:22 - Other Rugby News 01:11:51 - One KOKO Quiz Question 01:13:01 - Close of the showBUY YOUR KOKO MERCHANDISE AND STAY TUNED FOR EVENTS - www.kickoffsandkickons.comMake sure you follow us on all socials:INSTA: @kickoffskickons TWITTER/X: @kickoffskickons YOUTUBE: @kickoffsandkickons TIKTOK: @kickoffskickons If you do want to talk about sponsorship or anything business related then please do get in touch with us info@shtn.com.au.

The 1980s saw an explosion of independent record labels across the US, shaping the sound and spirit of underground music to this day. This week, Daniel House from Skin Yard and C/Z Records joins us as we dive into some of the finest labels whose DIY ethos, fearless experimentation, and raw energy broke away from the corporate music machine. One of the crucial American indie labels of the era was C/Z Records, the Seattle imprint that will forever be remembered as the second most important label in the burgeoning grunge scene. That being said, it was C/Z, not Sub Pop, who released the defining document of the new sound of the Pacific Northwest with 1986's Deep Six compilation - introducing Soundgarden, The Melvins, U-Men, Green River, Malfunkshun, and Skin Yard. Founded in 1985 by Chris Hanzek and Tina Casale, Skin Yard bassist Daniel House took over operation of C/Z in 1987, subsequently releasing music by Nirvana, Henry Rollins, Built To Spill, The Gits, Hammerbox, Presidents of the United States of America, 7 Year B---h, Coffin Break and many more. Skin Yard was a foundational band in the development of the grunge movement, not only due to the groundbreaking music they recorded between 1985 - 1991, but also the band members' other contributions to Seattle music. Aside from the aforementioned impact that House made with C/Z Records, guitarist Jack Endino would go on to produce and engineer some of the most enduring records of the era - including Nirvana's Bleach, and music by Mudhoney, Tad, Soundgarden, L7, and Screaming Trees. Lead singer Ben McMillan would form the band Gruntruck, and sadly passed away in 2008 at the age of 46. Drummer Matt Cameron is a world class musician who has been behind the kit for Soundgarden and, for the past 25 years, with Pearl Jam. Skin Yard Select is the brand new, limited collection of 14 songs loving curated by Daniel House and Jack Endino, culling tracks from their four studio albums, but also featuring enough rarities to please long-time fans. This beautiful package consists of seven individual 7" singles, each in their own sleeve and pressed on limited edition colored vinyl (or good ol' fashioned black).

This week on The KOKO Show we have an absolutely smashing episode for you all. The lads are joined by the two Aussie British and Irish Lions Tourees, Mr Mack ‘Daddy' Hansen and Mr Sione ‘The Scot' Tuipulotu. We broke down with the boys, what it felt like to join this illustrious club, where they were when they got the news and which Australian watering holes they will be attending alongside their band of bad losers. Plus, we analysed and dissected the complete 2025 British and Irish Lions Squad with a fine tooth comb, as we tried to poke holes in their approach, highlight their weaknesses and work out how the Wallabies will win the series 3-0. Moreover, with all this hubbub about a certain red army approaching our shores, it would be easy to lose sight of all the cracking footy action happening right here in Australia and New Zealand. That is right, fear not our soggy and sodden Southern Hemisphere heroes, this week we give you all the major takeaways from round 13 of the Superb Rugby, the highs and lows of the Wallaroos' Pac 4 campaign and a smattering of juicy rugby news from around the world.Finally, the KOKO Crew are back to work hitting the whiteboards and breathing in the sweet nectar of alcohol based cleaning products in the hope of constructing an Aussie squad akin to the ‘Locked in Lions', that we are calling ‘The Lion Tamers'. The fellas will be picking four Australian players each week to join the noble ranks of ‘The Lion Tamers', with the sole ambition of crushing these pompous touring tea tossers. So, sit back, relax and steep your brew with the highly dysfunctional KOKO Crew. It is time for episode 21 of Kick Offs and Kick Ons.TIMESTAMPS:00:00 - Start of the show01:29 - Gits explains why he is in London 02:45 - Intro to the show 06:01 - KOKO Learnings around Mothers Day09:22 - The KOKO boys discuss the Lions squad 13:57 - Sione Tuipulotu is back to talk about his Lions selection 14:41 - Sione talks about the moment his name was called out 20:51 - Sione talks about meeting the squad the squad for the first time 22:32 - Sione v Bundee Aki at training 23:11 - Sione on Mack Hansen 24:16 - Sione talks about the media attention about being and Aussie Lion 27:26 - Mack Hansen arrives on the KOKO Show 28:58 - Mack talks about when he found out the exciting Lions news 31:33 - Mack's celebrations after the news 32:33 - Mack addresses the rumors his injury had him out of the tour 34:38 - Mack talks about what excites him about going on tour 35:34 - Mack talks about KOKO making him Tour Captain37:04 - Mack talks about his days touring with the Brumbies 38:37 - Mack will be single on tour with Drew 41:13 - Farewell to Mack 41:46 - The KOKO boys select their first four Lion Tamers 43:47 - The Rugby Round Up Segment - The boys talk about Taniela's form48:17 - Joseph Suaalii injury and the Reds' performance 49:44 - DRUA V BLUES REVIEW 51:07 - Brumbies and Reds are both peaking at the right time 52:16 - Western Force 20th Anniversary Celebrations 55:11 - The injuries in Australian Rugby 57:44 - WALLAROOS V BLACK FERNS REVIEW01:02:45 - Gits' chat with Jamie Roberts 01:04:57 - Close of the show BUY YOUR KOKO MERCHANDISE AND STAY TUNED FOR EVENTS - www.kickoffsandkickons.comMake sure you follow us on all socials:INSTA: @kickoffskickonsTWITTER/X: @kickoffskickonsYOUTUBE: @kickoffsandkickonsTIKTOK: @kickoffskickonsIf you do want to talk about sponsorship or anything business related then please do get in touch with us info@shtn.com.au.

This week on The KOKO Show we get our Swoopy back from his impromptu golfing trips to make the group whole again as we break down a wonderful week that was in the world of rugby. The lads came together to run a fine tooth comb through the Super Rugby W Final that saw the Tahs tackle the Reds at North Sydney Oval, to make it back to back chips in 2024 and 25. Plus, we go large on round 9 of the Superb Rugby Pacific, highlighting the Brumbies big win over the Reds, the Tahs toppling the challenging Chiefs and the Crusaders taking their rightful place back on top of the Super ladder. Moreover, the boys go full business mode as they tackle all the hard hitting topics in a saucy smattering of Other Rugby News. However, the highlight of Episode 17 has to be our very special guest, all the way from the fortified walls of Edinburgh Castle with his new Whiskey in hand and donning a gorgeously snug pair of togs, it is Scotland's South African chunky chappy Mr Pierre Schoeman. We discuss everything from the state of rugby north of the wall, what it was like growing up in South Africa and now proudly playing for Scotland and finally his delicious little side business he shares with teammate and friend Duhan van der Merwe. So sit back, relax and hook up your IV drip full of Hirundine Whiskey and just let those mellow smokey notes of four flogs trying to make a rugby pod fill your gills with glee. Because it is time for episode 17 of Kick Offs and Kick Ons.

With the ‘Superb' Rugby season merely hours away from kicking off the lads run their greasy mitts through each and every Australian franchise, handing you unsolicited pearls of wisdom about how each team will compete and fair in the upcoming 2025 season. We talk crucial INS, OUT and and what could have ‘beens' for each side, as we put together the most complete and comprehensive season preview that zero dollars could buy. Plus, the boys have to smooth over some tense moments with Gits as he comes to terms with the fact most of the best Rebels players on the market didn't and shouldn't want to live in Canberra. I mean we could all ‘A SEE T' that was coming! Moreover, Drew clears the cobwebs off the age-old debate “What is Sua'ali'i's best position?”, as the Tahs look to play him at the back, whilst Schmidt saw his value in the centres. Finally, to keep our little frostbitten friends north of the wall happy, we have introduced a new segment called ‘The Locked in Lions”, where for the 12 weeks the lads will pick one player each every week to put on our whiteboard that can pack their bags and book their exit rows seats for the Lions Tour Down Under. So, put your tray tables away and place your seats in the upright position as the KOKO Crew point out each and every debaucherous exit on your whirlwind trip to pleasure town.

Following KEXP's recent event celebrating The Gits and Martin Douglas's recent Throwaway Style newsletter, we want to tell you more about these contemporaries of Kurt Cobain. The Gits were an early '90s Seattle band. Sub Pop Records recently launched a campaign to rerelease remastered versions of The Gits’ catalogue. So much of the band’s story has been wrapped around the 1993 rape and murder of The Gits frontwoman Mia Zapata. Late last year at KEXP’s Gathering Space, our colleague Emily Fox spoke with The Gits guitarist Andy Kessler and bassist Matt Dresdner about the band’s legacy and the life of Mia.

The Soundside team is taking the week off to rest and prepare for some upcoming shows we’re working on in the new year. So in the meantime, we're going to revisit two of Libby's segments from 2024. And to do that, we're going back in time, to the Seattle of the 1990s. We’ll look back on the music of grunge band The Gits, and hear from the band’s former drummer about his decision to revisit and reclaim the group's history. And later, we’ll revisit the story of a bank robber that feels practically ripped from the silver screen. Thank you to the supporters of KUOW, you help make this show possible!

In July 1993, Mia Zapata, a rising star in the genre of punk rock music, joined what is morbidly referred to as “The 27 Club” - artists and celebrities whose lives ended at the age of 27. Jimi Hendrix, Janis Joplin, Kurt Cobain, and Amy Winehouse all qualify. But like other members of this unfortunate club, Mia Zapata didn't die as the result of a drug overdose or by her own hand. She was murdered on the streets of Seattle just before she reached success with her band, The Gits. In this episode, I'll detail the life, death, and lasting legacy of Mia Zapata.

Hoi Mitenand!
A legendary punk band that came out of Yellow Springs.
Ich ha ime Podcast ghört, dass e Lüt git wo jedi Schtud diä glich Schtrecki secklä, bis nume no eine mag. Gits no öpis herters?
In the early 90s, Seattle was at the center of a sonic revolution. Grunge, a homegrown sludgy rock sound, became a global commodity. At the same time, another sound was making its mark on Seattle. The Gits were a band on the precipice of national stardom, standing out with their punk sensibility and charismatic female vocalist, with music labels circling. But the promise of a big break came to a violent end. The band's lead singer, Mia Zapata, was murdered in 1993. It happened in the early morning hours after a show at the Comet Tavern. For years, in media accounts, the band was defined by that tragic night. Today, the Gits' drummer, Steve Moriarty, says he doesn't want an act of violence to overshadow their full story. His book, Mia Zapata and the Gits: A True Story of Art, Rock, and Revolution, tells a fuller story of the band's existence. Thank you to the supporters of KUOW, you help make this show possible!

Mia Zapata and the Gits: A True Story of Art, Rock and Revolution (Ferel House, 2024) by Steve Moriarty, shares the story of the Seattle based The Gits and their charismatic front person Mia Zapata. The Gits were on the verge of international rock stardom but on July 7, 1993, days before their third US tour, Mia Zapata, The Gits 27-year-old singer-songwriter, was brutally assaulted and murdered by a stranger. Zapata's death sent chilling ripples through progressive communities throughout the United States. She became a cause-celebre for women's rights activists outraged by the brutal killing and lack of law enforcement support. This book reclaims Zapata's story to focus on the art she and The Gits created and not her tragic end. Much has been written and said about her murder, yet Zapata's life and work remain overshadowed by the circumstances of her death. Zapata's friend and bandmate, Steve Moriarty, tells her story--and the story of their band, The Gits--from their first meeting in 1985 to their last goodbye. Moriarity and Zapata met in 1985 as first-year students at Antioch College, where they discovered the power of punk rock and found an outlet for their progressive ideas through music. Zapata, Moriarity, and fellow students Matt Dresdner and Andy Kessler attended a show by San Francisco punk legends Dead Kennedys that inspired the friends to start a band fueled by Mia's provocative lyrics. They quickly gained critical praise and dedicated fans. Moriarty details their struggles as newcomers to the then-pre-tech outpost of the Seattle music scene. Interspersed are the tales Zapata told of her legendary ancestor, Mexican revolutionary Emiliano Zapata, to entertain the band as they spent countless hours on the road crammed into a single un-air-conditioned van touring the US and Europe. They shared stages with Beck, Nirvana, Mudhoney, Joan Jett, Bikini Kill, L7, and more--all who expected Mia and The Gits to be the next "big thing." The Gits's story is more than a biography; it's a testament to the ability of artists and musicians to challenge the status quo and the power of friendship to change the world. Moriarty reframes the sensationalist story as he shares his personal narrative and presents, with intimacy, grit, and humor, the lived experience of The Gits and his dear friend, Mia Zapata.

They were on the brink of international stardom when, on July 7, 1993, just days before their third US tour, Mia was brutally murdered. Her death came as a shock to the Seattle music scene and eventually became a national story. It would be a decade before her killer was arrested. During that time, the focus of Mia's story shifted further and further away from her talents and the music she created with The Gits. In this book, Steve Moriarty is determined to shift the focus from Mia's tragic end back to the art she and The Gits created, recounting their journey from their first meeting at Antioch College in 1985 to their rise in the Seattle music scene. Steve narrates the band's struggles, their inspirations, and the camaraderie that fueled their music, as well as the band's tours and performances alongside iconic acts like Nirvana, Mudhoney, and Joan Jett.Purchase a copy of Mia Zapata and The Gits: A Story of Art, Rock, and Revolution Episode Playlist ---------- BookedOnRock.com The Booked On Rock YouTube Channel Follow The Booked On Rock with Eric Senich:FACEBOOKINSTAGRAMTIKTOKX Find Your Nearest Independent Bookstore Contact The Booked On Rock Podcast: thebookedonrockpodcast@gmail.com The Booked On Rock Music: “Whoosh” by Crowander / “Last Train North” & “No Mercy” by TrackTribe
Welcome to Mona Lisa Overpod, the show that asks the question "What is cyberpunk?" On each episode, hosts Ka1iban and author Lyda Morehouse dive into the genre that helped define sci-fi fiction in '80s and they break down its themes which remain relevant to our lives in the 21st century. Pull on your mirrorshades, jack into the matrix, and start your run with us today!It's one of the most recognizable properties in cyberpunk media, a franchise that blew down the doors between Japan and America and helped popularize manga and anime in the West. It presents a world of cyborg agents using future technology to fight against villains both foreign and domestic, but it also explores the existential issues raised by the interchangeability of data and the mind. And in 1995, director Mamoru Oshii directed the franchise's first ground-breaking feature film, Ghost in the Shell.In this episode, we discuss the phenomenon of Ghost in the shell as a franchise, the instant-classic status of Oshii's film, the role of the mind in identity, the personhood of cyborgs and AI, the cyborg spectre of Cartesian doubt, the film's religious symbolism, its Bergmanesque trappings, its innate appeal to American audiences, and what it will take for GITS to evolve as a franchise. We also talk about Snow Crash parody apologism, explosions plus philosophy times boobs, telepathy powers, the film's preponderance of high beams, getting express consent before merging, trans-humanism, going weird, and Surf Draculas!What are the two helicopters?Join Kaliban on Twitch weekdays at 12pm for the Cyber Lunch Hour!http://twitch.tv/justenoughtropePut Just Enough Trope merch on your body!http://justenoughtrope.threadless.comMLOP is a part of the Just Enough Trope podcast network.

Send us a Text Message.Up and coming Mia Zapata, age 27, was emerging onto the Seattle grunge music scene in the early 1990's with her band The Gits. Mia was murdered on her way home after leaving a friend's house in the early morning hours of July 7th, 1993. Her murder would remain unsolved for 10 years until DNA testing would finally bring her killer to justice. Edited by Chrissy Champagne*Episode has been updated to correct a mistake. Someone take my "90's kid grunge card" away. The song "A Change Is Gonna Come" was written by Sam Cooke. Apologies to anyone who heard the previously incorrect version.

BECOME A STUDENT IN THE FOOD STORAGE FEAST ONLINE COURSE Learn skills to turn basic foods into delicious meals all year long. The Food Storage Feast Online Course pays for itself with a bounty of amazing meals, it's the education you can eat! Food Storage Feast Endorsement: “Food Storage Feast is one of the most important recommendations I can make for your preparedness. Chef Keith has changed my entire perspective on how to really enjoy living off food storage.” -Joel Skoussen, Author Strategic Relocation, Publisher World Affairs Brief HARVEST EATING SPICE BLENDS NOW SHIPPING We're excited to share the news that the Harvest Eating spice line is back! The supply chain issues have eased, and packaging is readily available in the quantities we need. Initially, we will have the following varieties available: Grilled Chicken Steakhouse Blend Carolina BBQ Northern Italian Montana Steak and a breakfast sausage blend will also come later this year. Our prices have increased substantially but we will do our best to make these as affordable as possible. We will announce a pre-order soon and expect to be shipping by the end of October. WHAT IS ON THE MENU: Texas chili with beans? Apple sauce-buy apples today FOOD INDUSTRY AND HARVEST NEWS: With funding momentum waning, and consumer education still a steep hurdle for growth, the cultivated meat industry could experience a major “shakeout” leading to the consolidation of key players, a new report from finance advisor Oghma Partners said. More Problems For Beyond Meat-Company slashing 19% of workforce as revenue estimates continue to tumble. TODAY'S MAIN TOPIC: We're almost in mid-November, a time when my family is collecting presents from the usual sources; stores, online, etc. but also making gifts. I'll readily and honestly submit that a homemade gift, edible or not, is much preferred to something made overseas. I just canned a gaggle of jars of apple sauce, it came out wonderfully, they will become Christmas gifts for neighbors and friends as we move closer to Christmas. I also will make Creme Fraiche, packed into cute little canning jars with a simple handwritten label and a red ribbon to bring to Christmas parties for the host. Trust me, a gift like this will be very welcomed as opposed to some lame bottle of wine you buy at Trader Joe's on the way to the party. Gits made with care always impress and IMO are so fun to make. Here is a short idea list of things you could possibly make: Creme Fraiche, find my video here Chow Chow, a simple canned vegetable medley of cabbage, peppers, onions, garlic, vinegar Homemade pasta sauce, your best recipe for pasta or even pizza sauce Popcorn-in particular flavored popcorn…use cheese powder or caramel, or both Chocolate nut bark-lovely and easy Chocolate Truffles-easy to make and are a big hit when packed into a colorful bag or even a glass jar House-made Irish cream Homemade vanilla extract-make this season, tell them to wait a few months to use it Smoked chicken mousse-smoke chicken thighs and blend with cream, shallots, garlic, parsley, white wine, salt & white pepper. Pack into jars….perfect for parties Apple butter Spiced pecans-lovely and easy Coffee liqueur-here is a good recipe Homemade cranberry sauce I could keep adding to this list but I think that gives you an idea of what you can make. I feel strongly that we're headed into a time, economically speaking, that gift giving will be a much better option than buying some crap from overseas. Most things we buy enrich other countries and they fall apart rather quickly so discover the benefits (and cost savings) of making gifts with your own hands! HOMESTEAD TSUNAMI: In addition to giving gifts that you make, maybe you can offer Heirloom seeds as gifts to those who garden or plan to garden. Interested in preserving your harvest? see the National Center For Food Preservation-FREE RESOURCE Read The Independent Farmstead by Sean & Beth Daugherty, I am a few chapters in and find it to be an excellent read for those looking to homestead. ECONOMIC NEWS: Unemployment rate spikes, jobs numbers are a fraud and have been revised lower 7 monthls in a row, tax revenues down yet they tell you economy is booming. Are there people dumb enough to belive this? well maybe…! PRODUCT RECOMMENDATION: LC King Manufacturing in Kingsport Tennesee. This US company has been producing amazing garments for many decades, support these folks and buy real hardwearing clothing made by Americans, skip Target, Gap, H&M, Ross, Old Navy, and other outlets that sell crappy imported garments. Buy real clothing! CLOSING THOUGHTS: Skip the store, go to the kitchen, and make it yourself.
