WBCQ/The Planet airdate - 9/28/24 Welcome to Fluxedo Junction, I'm Scott Kuchler. Each episode we bring you the best music of all genres from throughout the world, and this week we'll be speaking with an old friend of the show - singer, songwriter Roger Silverberg. Roger has long been a fixture on the Long Island music scene for years - writing carefully crafted, thought-provoking songs that he has performed and recorded both on his own, and with some of the best musicians on Long Island. He's also recently added another dimension to his musical palette as a member of the group Lipstick, a female fronted 80s influenced pop and rock band, who will be performing at Finley's of Greene Street in Huntington, NY on October 5th. The main event remains Rogers own music, which he'll be performing with a group of excellent musicians on December 13th at Bartini Bar in Babylon, NY. He's also continued recording his music, and we have a sneak preview of some of his most recent work.

Angela Westwater at 257 Bowery, 2020, photo by Alexei Hay Angela Westwater co-founded Sperone Westwater Fischer in 1975 with Italian art dealer Gian Enzo Sperone and German gallerist Konrad Fischer, opening a space at 142 Greene Street in SoHo, New York. (The gallery's name was changed to Sperone Westwater in 1982.) An additional space was later established at 121 Greene Street. The founders' original program showcased a European avant-garde alongside a core group of American artists to whom its founders were committed. Notable early exhibitions include a 1977 show of minimalist works by Carl Andre, Dan Flavin, Donald Judd, and Sol Lewitt; seven of Bruce Nauman's seminal early shows; six early Gerhard Richter shows; two Cy Twombly exhibitions in 1982 and 1989; eleven Richard Long exhibitions; and the installation of one of Mario Merz's celebrated glass and neon igloos in 1979 -- part of the gallery's ongoing dedication to Arte Povera artists, including Alighiero Boetti. Other early historical exhibitions at the Greene Street space include a 1989 group show, "Early Conceptual Works," which featured the work of On Kawara, Bruce Nauman, Alighiero Boetti, and Joseph Kosuth, among others; a 1999 Fontana exhibition titled "Gold: Gothic Masters and Lucio Fontana"; and selected presentations of work by Piero Manzoni. From May 2002 to May 2010, the gallery was located at 415 West 13 Street, in a 10,000-square foot space in the Meatpacking District. In September 2010, Sperone Westwater inaugurated a new Foster + Partners designed building at 257 Bowery. Today, over 45 years after its conception, the gallery continues to exhibit an international roster of prominent artists working in a wide variety of media. Artists represented by Sperone Westwater include Bertozzi & Casoni, Joana Choumali, Kim Dingle, Shaunté Gates, Jitish Kallat, Guillermo Kuitca, Wolfgang Laib, Helmut Lang, Amy Lincoln, Richard Long, Emil Lukas, David Lynch, Heinz Mack, Mario Merz, Katy Moran, Malcolm Morley, Bruce Nauman, Otto Piene, Alexis Rockman, Susan Rothenberg, Tom Sachs, Peter Sacks, Andrew Sendor, and William Wegman. Past exhibitions, press, and artworks can be found on the gallery website. Born in Columbus, Ohio, Westwater received her BA from Smith College and her MA from New York University. She arrived in New York City in 1971 and landed her first job as a “gallery girl” at the John Weber Gallery at 420 West Broadway. From 1972 to 1975, she served as Managing Editor of Artforum magazine. In 1975, the same year the gallery was founded, Westwater was appointed to the Board of Trustees of The Louis Comfort Tiffany Foundation, where she has served as President since 1980. The books mentioned in the interview are The Free World, Art and Thought in the Cold War by Louis Menand and A Life of Picasso, The Minotaur Years by John Richardson. Joana Choumali, Untitled (Ça Va Aller), 2019, mixed media, 9 1/2 x 9 1/2 inches (24 x 24 cm), 16 1/4 x 16 1/4 inches (41,3 x 41,3 cm) Joana Choumali, WE ARE STILL NOW, 2022, mixed media, 4 parts; 38 1/2 x 78 inches (97,8 x 198,1 cm)
Una vez mas bienvenidos a este que es el episodio numero 9 de traggos y relatos. #misterio, #podcast, #crimenreal, Estados Unidos de Norteamérica experimentaba años de desarrollo económico vertiginoso y eso se traducía en construcciones gigantescas de principios del siglo XX como las del edificio Asch, construído en hierro y acero y ubicado en el 23-29 de Washington Place, entre Greene Street y Washington Square East. El incendio de la fábrica Triangle Shirtwaist, el cual se produjo el 25 de marzo de 1911, fue el desastre industrial más letal de la historia de Estados Unidos. El hecho fatal tuvo como resultado la muerte de numerosos trabajadores de la fábrica y dejó estupefacta a la opinión pública. esperamos contar con su apoyo, np olviden seguirnos en nuestras redes como @Elzant3r, @Zodd_364, @rookieyooplays y nuestra nueva adquisicion @Sergio K Morales y no olviden seguir la pagina de @Tragos y Relatos en todos lados. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/angel-ramirez557/support

Ep 16 – Fellow Gamecock Gray Thomas is an advertising major and the founder of Soda City Thrifts, your new favorite thrift account. Gray hops on the pod to talk about how a $93 shopping tour through all the Goodwills in the area turned into a thriving side hustle. Don't expect to find any old school Redskin's gear from his shop…he keeps them all to himself. From pop-up shops at his front porch to table spreads on Greene Street, Gray tries to be everywhere when he can. LESSON OF THE POD: It's the Washington Football Team now... Host: Griffin McDonald & Grace Patton Producer/Editor: Joshua Tekle & Sydney Daigle Music: Lucy by pilotkid
When the Gamecocks take to the football field every fall, Williams-Brice Stadium roars with the full-throated spirit of 80,000-plus diehard fans, a battalion of marching band members, cheerleaders, baton twirlers and dancers. It's a far cry from the first football game played on the University of South Carolina campus in 1898 when a few hundred fans huddled on simple wooden bleachers on a field situated about where the Russell House now stands on Greene Street.
Will Sellenraad has earned a fast growing reputation of being at the forefront of creative musicians working in New York City. Known for his brilliant improvisations and his compelling, melodic compositions, this New York City native melds the various styles, phrasings and concepts of the jazz idiom with the raw elements of soul, rock and funk, to create a singular sound that is nothing short of inspiring. We talked to Will about growing up in downtown New York City in the 1980s, how his journey to and through Goddard started his musical journey towards jazz. “I was really into blues…that's where all jazz musicians should start anyway.” Despite enjoying the respite in rural Vermont, he learned that to do what he wanted to do musically, he would have to return to New York. After graduating from the New School, Will talks about entering the jazz scene in the 1990s through a happy hour gig, how the pandemic has affected the scene and what he hopes it looks like when it comes back. Will is dedicated to the craft of music and the discipline of practice, “I have no business calling what I do art, I mean that's for somebody else to say. All I can do is work on my craft and try to get better.” Deko Music released his album Star Hustler in February 2021 and will release Balance in April 2021.

The Overnight Underground News Podcast, here’s today's headlines: Trump gets his wall. Apple Store looters get a surprise. Rioters in LA target bagels. Are you ready for the comie radio network and stormtroopers police social distancing. These stories and more on today’s Overnight Underground News. I’m John Ford. It seems Trump may finally have gotten his wall after all. Video of the White House today shows that a larger perimeter fence has been installed around the entire Presidential crib. The Secret Service says they are just reinforcing security around the White House and have told Fox News it’s just an expansion of the perimeter. I say, look no matter how high they make the damn thing, a mesh fence just can’t keep us safe from Trump. But with any luck, it might be enough to keep him locked in his cell, ah bunker until November 4th. Maybe de Blasio and Cuomo could join him there for jello wrestling or something and keep these three retards busy until after the elections. Apple bricks looted computers Looters who grabbed computers from Apple Stores are in for a surprise. It seems that the computers and i-devices snatched by lootie are bricked junk. TMZ reports devices swiped from the Apple Store are demo machines rooted with applications that prevent the devices from being reset to factory settings. Yea, they are essentially useless, overpriced electronic paperweights. To make matters even worse for lootie, the devices are also being tracked. Maybe get some tee shirts made up that say, “I looted an Apple Store today and all I got was a thousand dollar paperweight.” Rolex store looters get big booty Rolex is probably thinking it’s too bad they can’t brick their watches. The New York Post reports that looters swiped just under two and a half million dollars worth of watches just from one Rolex store in the SoHo neighborhood of Manhattan. The store, on Greene Street was needless to say, emptied by looters. Two and a half million, that’s what... two Rolex watches. Jewish business targeted in LA I know, let’s blame this nonsensel on the Jews. The Jerusalem Post reports that rioters hit synagogues and kosher stores up and down the historically Jewish Fairfax district in Los Angeles. The Rabbi Gershon Bess Shul was tagged along with the Congregation Beth Israel, which was graffitied with anti-semitic slogans like the old standby used by anti-semites world wide, "F**k Israel" and "Free Palestine." A number of kosher deli’s and stores were looted. Hey, looters got to nosh too. The FCC are morons Well here’s some good news. foreign companies can now own American broadcast properties. Yesterday, according to Radio Ink, the FCC voted to allow foreign investment in Cumulus Broadcasting, up to one hundred percent. Cumulus is the third largest owner and operator of radio stations in the US. Sounds like a great idea, allowing ownership of US broadcast properties by foreign entities such as Russia, China and hell, why not North Korea and Iran. Bet they would still play shitty American pop music though. Stormtroopers enforce social distancing I just love this story. At Disney parks, Imperial Stormtroopers will be in charge of social distancing. Following the reopening of parts of Disney World on May 20th, citizens visiting the parks must follow social distancing rules. In a video released by attractions magazine, two stormtroopers can be seen at Disney Springs, blasters in hand ordering visitors at the happiest place on earth to stay the hell away from each other. Of course that video can be viewed on today’s podcast page at overnight underground dot com. Mutant ticks take over Russia Making the list of things that want to kill you today, are mutant ticks. Over in Russia, in the Krasnoyarsk region, they’ve been blighted, or is that bited, by and invading horde of blood-sucking ticks. The Daily Star reports, the new and deadly “mutant” ticks are spreading across the region at a rate of 428 times more than the usual tick infestation rate. I didnt’ even know they had such a thing, a tick infection rate. I don’t know about you, but I’m stayin’ home and locking my doors. In the suburbs of Krasnoyarsk city they are infested with 214 ticks per square kilometer. The normal “safe figure is 0.5.
Today marks the 109th anniversary of the Triangle Shirtwaist Factory Fire in New York City. Normally on this day, large crowds of union members and others would gather at Washington Place and Greene Street to pay tribute to the 146 lives lost on that fateful day. It was one of the deadliest industrial disasters in U.S. history. COVID-19 has canceled those plans as gatherings continue to be off-limits. So, as more of us continue to be confined to our homes, we thought it would be fitting to remind you of this podcast – A Day in History that Changed Workplace Safety. It is a look-back at how a single tragedy changed workplace safety and strengthened the labor movement.

The Discover Coral Reefs School Program, teaches K- 12th grade students from Key West to Miami the importance of ocean and coastal ecosystems through activities in the classroom and on the water. The program supplements the current science curriculum of these schools by focusing on marine science lessons that are of particular importance to students and families residing in Florida. Coral Camp The Coral Camp Summer Program uses interactive activities and field trips to teach children 6- 14 years of age about ocean ecology, coral reefs, marine life and sustainability. Camp activities include lessons on the identification of common corals, fish, and invertebrates, oceanography, tides, symbiosis, snorkel etiquette and leave no trace principles. Each year Reef Relief offers scholarships sponsored by local businesses and community members so that children regardless of income have a chance to participate in this unique program. Over the summer, 260 local and vacationing youth will take part in the program. Community & Environmental Stewardship In partnership with community groups and government agencies, Reef Relief coordinates volunteer programs that cultivate an attitude of stewardship within the community. Since 2010, Reef Relief’s coastal clean-up program has removed over 150,000 lbs of marine debris from the shores and waters of the Florida Keys. Reef Relief has partnered with the City of Key West to educate residents and visitors about stormwater and local water quality through the Stormwater Education and Outreach Project. The Key West High School Reef Relief Club and alternative spring break volunteers each year have stenciled storm drains throughout the City of Key West with no dumping messages. Other Stormwater Education Programs we run include our “Skip the Straw” Campaign, “Protect your Skin, Protect our Reef” sunscreen campaign, and our storm drain stenciling project. Reef Education The distribution of nearly 100,000 brochures to Florida Keys locations including resorts, hotels and guesthouses, Chambers of Commerce, educational facilities, visitor centers and more are an important way to educate the public about our fragile ecosystem. Information found in the “Don’t Teach Your Trash to Swim” poster, “Coral Reef Guide for Kids of All Ages” brochure, “Coral Reefs” brochure and the “Florida Keys is a No Discharge Zone for Boater Sewage” brochure are all important resources to inform the general public. Join in our efforts to improve and protect our coral reef ecosystem. Policy Guidance For 32 years, Reef Relief has made, considerable progress to improve water quality and protect, fish and wildlife of Florida’s coral reef ecosystems by working with environmental, scientific and governmental leaders in Florida. Reef Relief’s State Program Director Dr. Jeff Sharkey and his staff at the Capitol Alliance Group are a driving force for improved water quality. In support of this effort, Reef Relief become a member of the Everglades Coalition in 2012. The Everglades Coalition is an alliance of 57 local, state and national environmental organizations. It is dedicated to the full restoration of the greater Everglades ecosystem encompassing the lakes that connect to Lake Okeechobee, the River of Grass, Florida Bay and the Florida Keys. Reef Relief will continue to monitor Federal and State activities on water quality, ocean policy, fisheries, and marine species. Key West Marine Park In 2012, Reef Relief took over management of the Key West Marine Park through a partnership with the City of Key West. This swim park will become a focal point for Reef Relief’s marine education and scientific programs. These will include the design and implementation of a snorkel trail by Reef Relief staff, partners, and volunteers within the Key West Marine Park. This will be the first interpretive snorkel trail in North America. The park provides an interactive outdoor learning site for students of all ages. The three buoyed areas are for swimming and snorkeling and are closed to motorized vessels. For boaters, there are two access lanes to the shoreline.

241 - Brad Manard Brad Manard is an author in addition to being a musician. Along with Captain Tony Tarracino, Manard penned the book Life Lessons of a Legend, which is the story of Captain Tony sometimes known as the "Salt of Key West." Along with Ernest Hemingway and Jimmy Buffett, Tarracino is among a handful of Key West legends. So what was it that made Captain Tony so special? What did he do? I think an easier question would be what did Captain Tony not do. As a young man he was a gambler who fled to New Jersey from the Mob. In his life he was a fishing and charter boat captain in Key West. He owned Captain Tony's Saloon located on Greene Street in Key West—the oldest bar in Florida. His best friends included Tennessee William, Truman Capote, Shel Silverstein and Mel Fisher…just to name a few. The 1970s movie Cuba Crossing was made about his trip to Cuba to transport government assassins. Captain Tony was the surrogate father of singer-songwriter Jimmy Buffett and the inspiration behind his classic song “Last Mango in Paris.” Captain Tony was elected mayor of Key West in 1989 at 73 years old. Captain Tony was also a very prolific man. He fathered 13 children with 50 years separating the oldest and youngest child. Most importantly I believe Captain Tony was a storyteller. Perhaps one of the best and everyone who met him loved him. Originally broadcast on the radio, this interview is now available to the podcast audience.

Anthony was born on August 10, 1916 in Elizabeth New Jersey. His father was an immigrant who made his living as a bootlegger during these times of Prohibition. By the time Anthony was heading into high school, he decided his time would be better spent making whiskey and selling it to his Father’s customers. During the war, he left to work for Boeing aircraft company in Seattle. After the war, he returned to NJ and began gambling on horse races to earn money. Well, you can imagine the mob characters that Anthony was dealing with and eventually he crossed them one too many times. One particularly close call happened with the Mafia decided to teach him a lesson he would never forget. Anthony was beaten within an inch of his life and tossed into the Newark City dump, where he was left for dead. Instead of becoming a feather in the cap of the mafia - Anthony survived, and knew that he needed to get out of town and make a fresh start. Anthony decided to head south to Florida. He didn’t have much money - only $18 in his pocket when he saw a sign that said “See Key West”. Anthony stopped at the race track in Homestead and started inquiring about Key West. He had already missed the last bus heading to Key West, but instead caught a ride with the milk truck. When he finally rolled into Key West, Anthony couldn’t believe his eyes. Bars were on every corner, slot machines all of the place and there were more women of ill repute than he could shake a stick at. He immediately said to himself, “This place is for me!” Anthony got work in the shrimp yards, heading shrimp. He eventually had some shrimp captains take him under their wing and show him the ins and outs of shrimping. Later, Anthony got his Captain’s license and began his fishing career. He had a great career and became a highly sought after charter fishing captain, and he held plenty of records! Eventually, Anthony began spending more time in the bars on Duval street. He loved the night life. He got along great with gay people because his brother was gay. He loved a good party, and knew everyone in town. He eventually had an affair with one of the Navy wines he met at a bar and caused quite a scandal. Eventually, the gay bar owner left town and committed suicide. So Anthony’s favorite bar closed down. Anthony missed that bar so much, that eventually his friends talked him into opening that bar back up. The word-famous bar that used to be Sloppy Joe’s and plied booze to the likes of Ernest Hemingway and Truman Capote now became Captain Tony’s bar. Anthony or “Captain Tony” as everyone knew him kept the place just like it was and could be seen there nearly every day of the week, until a couple of weeks before he died. It was today in Key West History, November 18th, 1964 that this Establishment, formerly known as the Oldest Bar at 428 Greene Street was placed “on limits” to Navy personnel. Can you imagine the stories that building could tell? I mean, the gays, the shrimpers, the women of ill repute, and now the Navy boys - what a time they had. And that is what happened today in Key West History. Today in Key West History is brought to you by 43Keys Media.

On the latest episode of the Talkhouse Film Podcast, two of the funniest (and also most underappreciated) comedians around, Todd Barry and Chris Gethard, sit down for a conversation at Sonos' flagship store at 101 Greene Street in New York City. The two multihyphenates talk about their myriad projects, including Barry's newly published book Thank You for Coming to Hattiesburg, Gethard's one-person show Career Suicide (which hits HBO later this month), the Webby Gethard just won for his podcast, but focus most of their conversation on the minutiae that is the very stuff of comics' lives: clothing choices, frequent flyer miles, college gigs, life on the road.

We went mobile for this episode and traveled to the Basecamp coffee lab. I wish podcast technology was advanced enough to include smell, but for that sense you are going to have to seek out your own freshly roasted bag of Basecamp Coffee. Hayden created a special espresso blend, and it is delicious. Hayden has plans to open a coffee shop on Greene Street, he is hoping to create an environment to start your day or interact with your community. Hayden is currently selling his coffee at the Thursday Farmers Market in Cumberland, Shift in Frostburg, MD and Mountainside Creative in downtown Cumberland, MD.

Between Houston and Prince Streets on Greene Street in lower Manhattan, one city block has undergone dramatic changes over the course of four centuries. Today this Greene Street block is home to luxury retail and expensive residences, but not too long ago it was filled with art galleries, brothels, and garment manufacturing. The shifts in the block's physical character and value were often sudden and totally unanticipated. Looking only at the nation-state level can obscure meaningful growth that occurs on much smaller levels, but how much can we learn from looking at just a city block? William Easterly of New York University tells us about this exciting and surprising history of one New York City block and what it can teach us about development.
