On a very special First Concert Memories we welcome two extraordinary guests to not only tell us all about a series of concerts from 50 years ago but for an upcoming show that will celebrate a very special tour in music history. The enchanting Scarlet Rivera, a world renowned violinist who toured with Bob Dylan's Rolling Thunder Revue in the 1970s's and played the haunting violin on Hurricane, is teaming up with Stu Allen to celebrate that historic tour. Stu is a veteran of jam band heavyweights in Northern California (Phil Lesh & Friends, Mars Hotel, Dark Star Orchestra) and is leading Scarlet and his friends in concert on November 4, 2025 at The Junction in Mill Valley (get tickets here ⁠www.thejunc.com/music-calendar⁠). Scarlet regales us with tales from the road when Bob Dylan decided he wanted to play live again but wanted to play in smaller venues and connect with people along the way. With greats like Mick Ronson onboard, Dylan also collected poets (Allen Ginsberg), playwrights (Sam Shepard), folk legends (Joan Baez, Joni Mitchell, Roger McGuinn) and a cast of characters to create not only incredible music on stage but to feed his own creativity and curiosity. The scene was captured by Stefan van Dorp and Martin Scorsese created a film for Netflix in 2019 that gave context to this unique tour. Scarlet was along for the ride after Dylan flagged her down while she was crossing the street in Greenwich Village. Hear who she befriended on tour and the rock legend she was dating at the time without knowing what his stage shows were all about (she ended it after seeing him live). If you can make it to The Junc in Mill Valley on November 4, please do and tell em The Wolf sent ya! If you can't we know you'll still love hearing from Scarlet Rivera about her fond memories of The Rolling Thunder Revue and why she's excited to play with Stu to enjoy those tunes live once again. ⁠www.thejunc.com⁠ ⁠www.scarletriveramusic.com⁠ Check out our new website: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Ugly American Werewolf in London Website⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Twitter⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Threads⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Instagram⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠YouTube⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠LInkTree⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠www.pantheonpodcasts.com⁠ Learn more about your ad choices.

I remember my first meeting with Terri Thal. She was preparing for the publication of her new book. She had titled it, MY GREENWICH VILLAGE, Dave, Bob and Me It's release coincided roughly with the movie about Bob Dylan's Life, A Complete Unknown. The movie was three hours long and ,yes, Timothée Chalamet did all the playing and singing himself. I asked. But if you've got three hours to spend, I'd just buy Terri's book. If you go to a movie that's 3 hours long, chances are you won't be able to stand up afterwards and people look at you funny if you keep sitting in your chair. Terri and I had not met previously but were both very interested in the prime days of folk music. Terri Thal was very much a part of the folk music world in 1960s Greenwich Village, New York. Few people know that she was 21-year-old Bob Dylan's first manager prior to his contract with Albert Grossman and Columbia Records. She also managed musician Dave Van Ronk (who later became her husband), and others to include the Roche sisters, Paul Geremia and The Holy Modal Rounders. The book is a personal story of the world of folk music in 1960s New York written by a Jewish woman from Brooklyn who, although not a musician, was an intrinsic part of this scene. Terri describes Greenwich Village as a community that was supportive, musically exciting and one in which people had fun. When i met Terri last week to prepare for the interview, she was in that new, questioning mood. She wanted, she said, to decide what there was for a woman past 50 to look forward to, in a world skewed away from women. Writer Robert Tompkins joined our group revealed that he has begun to learn to play the mouth organ because he has found that when he has a tough to solve problem. doing something different often helps, and sure enough, in no time at all, ideas were flying - and so we decided that we'd meet again in two months with some brand new ideas. Be sure to join us, and if you have some ideas you'd let us to cast a bit of light on. She didn't want to do another book that required the research Dave, Bob, and Me had required. And she wanted to make a difference in the world. So we invite you to join in the ideas and be sure to listen to our December podcast and let us know if you have any ideas. We'll see that Terri gets them. Let us know if you need ideas too. We'll keep you posted. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

One of the most iconic neighborhoods in New York is geting a glow up:  The Village Alliance Business Improvement District (BID) has announced the launch of Project Green, a five-year, $2 million fundraising campaign to dramatically increase greenery across one of the city's most vibrant neighborhoods, Greenwich Village. Our guest is Scott Hobbs, Executive Director of the Village Alliance, leading the organization's first comprehensive streetscape initiative in over 20 years.

Hoy vamos a hablar de poesía y de activismo. De poesía que crea revoluciones y de activismo que genera poesía. Hoy volvemos a la década de los años cincuenta del siglo XX para continuar hablando de una de nuestras generaciones literarias favoritas en Nadie al Volante; una Generación que apareció para hacer temblar al status quo, porque estaba harta de este status quo; y que llegó para revelarnos verdades recónditas de nosotros mismos que estaban aún por explorar, y que, teniendo en cuenta, la deriva en la que está naufragando nuestro mundo, tal vez, ahora, sea más necesaria que nunca su poesía y su revolución Hoy volvemos a las calles del Greenwich Village, también a las de Harlem, y a las aceras de San Francisco para tratar a dos de las figuras más fascinantes y desconocidas de la Generación Beat; de la Generación golpeada. Una mujer y un afroamericano, cuyas vidas se entrecruzan en las calles de Nueva York para brindarnos una poesía incendiaria y única, que estallaba en el corazón de la juventud estadounidense que buscaba la chispa con la que prender la llama de la rebelión, a través del arte y del activismo, en una conjunción como pocas veces se ha visto, y seguramente, cuando era más necesario. Hoy en Radio Nadie al Volante, vamos a estrenar la sección Filología Inglesa de nuestro poeta, traductor, editor y profesor de cabecera, Rafael Peñas Cruz, para indagar en la vida y la obra de una poeta beat, una de las muchos que hubo, y que acabó siendo una de las figuras capitales del ambiente literario de la época; como también lo fue el poeta, ensayista y activista político afroamericano del que vamos a tratar de rastrear en su apasionante y muy desconocida peripecia vital. Así que entramos en una librería del Village, nos atiende un chico negro, que estaba esbozando fragmentos de poemas en una libreta, antes de que le interrumpiéramos; en uno de los pasillos de la librería, una chica está besando a un atractivo muchacho mientras sostiene una edición de los Cantos de Ezra Pound bajo su brazo derecho. Cuando va a pagar el libro, le dice al muchacho negro: “Tú y yo, un día, tendremos nuestra propia revista donde publicaremos a Gingsberg, a Burroughs y a toda una generación de poetas, pero de momento apaguemos las luces y encendamos las estrellas de la noche. Hablamos de Diane di Prima y de Amiri Baraka.

This is the story of a song. Yet, it is a song that binds nearly every strand of 20th-century American popular music. “Hey Joe” was written sometime in the early 1960s by a man named Billy Roberts, an obscure singer and guitarist from South Carolina who moved to New York City, drawn by the burgeoning folk music scene in Greenwich Village. It was a time when new, original material was scarce, leading other singers to quickly adapt songs of quality in the spirit of folk music's oral traditions. Thus began the long journey of “Hey Joe” from New York coffeehouses to the bars on L.A.'s Sunset Strip to the ears of a young guitarist named Jimi Hendrix who launched his career with his radical, electrified interpretation. Extensively researched, That Gun in Your Hand: The Strange Saga of ‘Hey Joe' and Popular Music's History of Violence (Anvil Press, 2025) also presents previously unpublished information about the life of Billy Roberts, a shadowy figure whose 2017 death went unreported by all news outlets. With a Foreword by Lenny Kaye. Jason Schneider has written for Exclaim!, The Globe & Mail, The Toronto Star, Paste, American Songwriter, Relix, Shindig and many other media outlets. He is the co-author of Have Not Been The Same: the CanRock Renaissance 1985-1995, and his other books include Whispering Pines: the Northern Roots of American Music, and the novel 3,000 Miles. He currently lives in Kitchener, Ontario. Jason Schneider on Bluesky.

Get the book here. The definitive, in-depth look inside the making of Alfred Hitchcock's Rear Window—the all-time classic of voyeurism, paranoia, and murder that became one of Hollywood's greatest achievements and turned generations of viewers into “a race of Peeping Toms.” . . .Before the internet and social media offered voyeuristic glimpses into the lives of others, the acclaimed Master of Suspense, Alfred Hitchcock, exposed the dangers and delights of looking—and knowing—too much in his 1954 masterpiece Rear Window. Widely hailed as one of the greatest films ever made, it stars James Stewart and Grace Kelly at the top of their game but, in an unusual gamble, is shot entirely from within a Greenwich Village apartment . . .Using this limited point of view, Hitchcock forces his audience to participate in his protagonist's voyeuristic impulses and darkest obsessions—a bold move in the era of the Hollywood Blacklist and restrictive Hays Code. But the gamble paid off, and Rear Window became a timeless classic.This eye-opening book goes straight to the source of Rear Window's genius by mining the original papers of Hitchcock, Jimmy Stewart, and Thelma Ritter, revealing little-known facts behind the Why taking the role of Lisa Fremont was one of the toughest decisions Grace Kelly ever made; How Hitchcock intertwined suspense and romance with inspiration from Ingrid Bergman; How he used a topless scene to distract the censors from other scenes to which they may have objected; and how Hitchcock crafted the film's unforgettable villain, Lars Thorwald, by modeling him on a producer he loathed—the infamous David O. Selznick. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Tune in as we honor and pay tribute to the ONLY patrolman that perished on 911. Keith was with Fire Patrol 2 in Greenwich Village and responded to the trade center on that horrific day. Keith performed some great heroic acts on 911 including several trips into the North Tower where he saved an estimated 200 civilians. Sadly, as he was rescuing 9 civilians, the second tower collapsed, killing Keith and the 9 civilians he was rescuing. This is going to be another great tribute show as we discuss Keith's career and the controversy surrounding his death. We will also get to discuss Arnolds time in the Fire Patrol. We will get the whole skinny. You don't want to miss this one. Join us at the kitchen table on the BEST FIREFIGHTER PODCAST ON THE INTERNET!

We all know James Baldwin the high priest of Civil Rights, but what about Jimmy B, the extremely horny homosexual? JB was a chain-smoking, vodka-swilling romantic who fell hard and often—usually for straight men he could never have.This week, Bash and his bestie guestie, Clark Moore, crack open Baldwin's chaos: from his Harlem childhood all the way to his retirement villa in the South of France.Along the way we meet the English teachers who found him a pleasure to have in class, revisit the first gay nights in Greenwich Village, and soak in the winter sun at his Swiss twink's chalet.This is a tour of Baldwin's life through his greatest loves.Get ready to talk about:Love with a capital L, and how it was the key to Baldwin's ideas on race, sex, and revolutionThe contradictions of Baldwin's genius—he was a brilliant debater who lived on a bottle a day and a prophet of love, who struggled to love himselfGiovanni's Room, the gay novel he swore wasn't about being gayAnd why his words still influence us today, from antiracists "doing the work" to an almost annual New Yorker article summing up his life, work, or legacy

What the if gravitational waves were big enough to see and feel? Instead of measuring distortions smaller than a proton, imagine watching your coffee table accordion in and out as ripples from distant black hole collisions pass through your local cafe. Every time Charlie the cat bats a toy mouse in Greenwich Village, sugar cubes scrunch in Williamsburg cafes. Brain surgeons would need to ask all of New York to sit perfectly still during operations to avoid gravitational interference. Even parking lots would seem impossibly far away one moment and right next to you the next as space itself stretches and compresses. From squirrels disrupting billion-dollar physics experiments to the strange world of noise-canceling gravity waves, discover why LIGO's incredible ability to detect universe-shaking events that distort space by one ten-thousandth the width of a proton might actually be humanity's most impressive scientific achievement. Based on "Happy Birthday, LIGO. Now Drop Dead." by Dennis Overby, published in The New York Times on September 10, 2025: https://www.nytimes.com/2025/09/10/science/gravitational-waves-ligo-black-holes.html?unlocked_article_code=1.nE8.QM2f.ag_83DD_kR8e&smid=url-share Learn More: "Gravity's Kiss: The Detection of Gravitational Waves" - https://mitpress.mit.edu/9780262535120/gravitys-kiss/ Matt mentioned sociologist Harry Collins' nearly 900-page masterpiece about gravity wave detection as the first book he ever reviewed; find this comprehensive account of one of science's most remarkable discoveries written by someone embedded in the gravitational wave community for over 40 years. Professor Tiffany Nichols - https://cssh.northeastern.edu/faculty/tiffany-nichols/ Matt recommended his friend Tiffany's dissertation (soon to be a book) about how LIGO chose their detection sites; explore her research on the epic story of selecting locations for these mile-long instruments and how surrounding environments become part of the scientific process. What are Gravitational Waves - https://www.ligo.caltech.edu/page/what-are-gw Learn about the ripples in space-time that we imagined making visible in our thought experiment, including how these waves from colliding black holes create distortions 10,000 times smaller than an atomic nucleus. What is LIGO - https://www.ligo.caltech.edu/page/what-is-ligo Discover how this unique observatory uses 4-kilometer-long laser interferometers to detect the universe's most violent events, from the instrument that Matt described as humanity's most sensitive measurement device. --- Find out more about Gaby's science fiction short story!

This is your Evening All Local Update for September 19, 2025.

Today's New York neighborhood called NoHo, wedged between Greenwich Village and the East Village, holds the stories of many people and places that then went on to become deeply associated with the great Gilded Age.The Astor family began their dynasty here in both investment and real estate as did the well-known Dutch-American merchant family the Schermerhorns.Caroline Schermerhorn, who became the famed Mrs. Astor, grew up right here on Bond Street along with many members of her family. NoHo today still contains many remnants of its early 19th-century glamorous past and sites where the tensions between the wealthy residents of the Lafayette Place neighborhood clashed with the growing immigrant population just one street away on the Bowery. Bowery Boys Walks tour guide Aaron Schielke joins Carl Raymond of the Gilded Gentleman podcast for a look at this fascinating neighborhood, which includes stories of the rich and famous, as well as the macabre details of a grisly 19th-century murder that took place on Bond Street that remains unsolved to this day. Take a Bowery Boys Walks tour with Aaron! Find dates to his NoHo tours here and other walking tours here.This episode was originally released in the Gilded Gentleman feed in March 2025. The show was edited and produced by Kieran Gannon.

It was around this date back in 1967 that Led Zeppelin founder Jimmy Page stumbled upon the Jake Holmes song “Dazed and Confused.” The Greenwich Village folk-rock singer opened for his group, the Yardbirds, at the Village Theatre in New York City and performed the song, which appeared on his recently released debut LP. Neither of them could've predicted the chain of events that would ignite a couple of years later when Page co-opted the song and made it one of Zeppelin's biggest numbers. Between those two events, Jake co-wrote two concept albums with Bob Gaudio; one for his group, Frankie Valli & the Four Seasons, and the other for Frank Sinatra. In his latest article for the Strange Brew, author Scott G. Shea tells Part 1 of Jake's little-known story, which provides insight into these two albums and how this diminutive folk singer influenced several giants of the business.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/arroe-collins-like-it-s-live--4113802/support.

He was a central figure in that era which included Bob Dylan, Tom Paxton, Phil Ochs and Richard Fariña.Some of his famous early compositions were “Thirsty Boots,” “Violets of Dawn,” and “Close The Door Lightly When You Go”. These songs were picked up by artists like Judy Collins, the Brothers Four, the Kingston Trio, the Blues Project, Sandy Denny & Fairport Convention, and Johnny Cash.  Eric's songs have been covered by many artists, including Bob Dylan, Ricky Nelson, Janis Ian, Peter Paul and Mary, the Grateful Dead and Mary Chapin Carpenter.

It is a collection of songs that I wrote over the years but never released. A few of them ended up on live albums but most of them were never recorded before. The songs do share a theme. It is about love in all its forms, including love for life itself and love for the planet.  The beautiful, difficult and dark aspects of love. I'm very proud of it. In the eleven years it took to make this album I didn't sit still. I did bring out three literary albums, around the works of Byron, Camus and Böll.

In the 1970s, New York's LGBTQ Community was gripped by fear; from a string of grisly unsolved killings known as the “Bag Murders,” to the shocking murder of film critic Addison Verrill, and whispers of a Hollywood curse surrounding The Exorcist. At the center of these intersecting stories stands Paul Bateson, a man described as handsome and charismatic, yet linked to both cinema lore and real-life violence. In one of New York City's darkest chapters, fact and fiction collided, spawning an evil that was very much rooted in reality. 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.comFeaturing a promo for Rogue Darkness PodcastWelcome to Rogue Darkness!

A new California congressional map, commissioned by Democrats, seeks to counter Texas’ proposed gerrymandering. The man who drew the map had never drawn a partisan one before. Californians are likely headed to the ballot box in November for a special election on redistricting – and the state is likely headed to court over the scheme.  For 45 years, Blue Note in Greenwich Village served as New York City’s upscale club for jazz. Then came locations in Asia, Europe, and South America. Last week, LA got its own Blue Note. KCRW’s LeRoy Downs says Blue Note LA will appeal to a wide audience, even those who don’t often listen to jazz. He highlights some artists who will perform there this season.

In which the Mister joins me in reviewing THE POPE OF GREENWICH VILLAGE (1986), from a script by Vincent Patrick from his 1979 novel , the film is directed by Stuart Rosenberg.  The film follows Charlie (Mickey Rourke), a sharp-dressed, street-smart maître d' with big dreams, and his reckless cousin Paulie (Eric Roberts), whose impulsive schemes constantly derail their lives. After losing their jobs, they get involved in a low-level heist that spirals out of control, entangling them with the local mob and resulting in unintended tragedy. As pressure mounts, Charlie is forced to choose between his ambitions, his conscience, and his loyalty to Paulie. The film blends gritty realism with dark humor, capturing the heartbreak, chaos, and stubborn resilience of life on the fringes of New York's Little Italy.  The film clocks in at 2 h and 1 m, is rated R and we watched it on the Hoopla app but is available on MGM+, PlutoTV, Tubi and to rent/buy on Amazon.  Please note there are SPOILERS in this review.#SupportYourLocalLibrary  ⁨@hoopladigital⁩  #ThePopeOfGreenwichVillage #VincentPatrick #StuartRosenberg #EricRoberts #Paul #MickeyRourke #Charlie #DarylHannah #Diane #GeraldinePage #MrsRitter #KennethMcMillan #Barney #TonyMusante #Pete #BurtYoung #BedBugEddie #MEmmetWalsh #Burns #JackKehoe #Bunky #PhilipBosco #PauliesDad #ValAvery #Nunzi #JoeGrifasi #JimmyTheCheeseMan #TonyDiBenedetto #Ronnie #RonaldMaccone #Nicky #Gangster #Action #Comedy #Crime #Drama  @MGMplus  @PlutoTV  @Tubi  @Amazon  #FridayFamilyFilmNightOpening intro music: GOAT by Wayne Jones, courtesy of YouTube Audio Library

Meg Wolitzer presents two stories about the things she loves most: books and words and why they matter. In Ben Loory's “The Book,” a contrarian volume becomes a literary sensation, and alters one woman's life. The reader is Jane Kaczmarek. In “Things I Know to be True” by Kendra Fortmeyer, originally published in One Story, a damaged veteran uses words to hold his life together. The reader is Calvin Leon Smith. And in a special feature, Wolitzer visits a favorite indie bookstore, Three Lives & Company: http://threelives.com/who.html The Greenwich Village icon, which was founded in the 1980s, is a haven for readers, writers, and book lovers of all kinds. Michael Cunningham calls it “One of the greatest bookstores on the face of the Earth. Every single person who works there is incredibly knowledgeable and well read and full of soul.” And you'll meet some of them—and the books they treasure--on this show. 

Guest and HostGuest: Cindy Hulej, Luthier/Artist | Website: https://www.cindyguitars.com/Host: Sean Martin, Co-Founder at ITSPmagazine and Host of Redefining CyberSecurity Podcast & Music Evolves Podcast | Website: https://www.seanmartin.com/Show NotesWhat happens when the story of a city becomes part of the music we make? In this episode of Music Evolves, host Sean Martin sits down with luthier and artist Cindy Hulej of Cindy Guitars to explore how reclaimed wood from historic New York buildings is transformed into custom electric guitars—each one uniquely shaped by memory, material, and imagination.Craft as InnovationCindy's process at Carmine Street Guitars isn't just about building instruments—it's about listening to what the material has to say. The beams salvaged from landmarks like the Chelsea Hotel and John Lennon's former home aren't just structural—they carry decades of vibration, weather, and presence. That physical history directly shapes how these guitars sound, feel, and resonate—offering a kind of analog innovation rooted in human touch and intention.Cindy describes how she and her husband Johnny repurpose old beams, often salvaged from 1800s-era buildings, and transform them into guitars that are not only playable but deeply resonant—physically and emotionally. The aged wood, shaped by centuries of seasonal change, yields a tone that's warm and chimey, with a resonance modern lumber can't match. “You're working with material that's already lived a hundred lives,” she explains. “You just have to unlock the next one.”Creativity Beyond ConventionEach guitar is made by hand, down to the smallest detail. From collaborating with boutique pickup winders to mixing finishes from shellac flakes, Cindy builds instruments that are both sonic and visual statements. No two are alike—because the creative process isn't about repeating perfection, it's about shaping something personal and alive. Whether players come with a precise vision or just a feeling, Cindy helps translate that into tone and form.Reimagining the Past to Shape the FutureThis isn't just about guitars. It's about the convergence of history, artistry, community, and sound. This episode challenges the idea that innovation must come from new tech or flashy trends. Sometimes, the most meaningful advances come from rethinking old materials and techniques.Cindy's guitars are a form of living history—reminding us that sound isn't just produced, it's inherited, interpreted, and carried forward. And, Cindy's path from bartending to building some of the most soulful instruments in New York is a reminder that craft isn't just skill—it's commitment to meaning.About Rick Kelly and Carmine Street GuitarsCarmine Street Guitars, located in New York City's Greenwich Village, is a hand-built electric guitar workshop led by legendary luthier Rick Kelly. Known for using reclaimed old-growth wood from historic buildings across the city, Rick has built instruments for renowned musicians such as Lou Reed, Patti Smith, Bob Dylan, and many others. His approach blends time-honored techniques with a reverence for the city's past, crafting guitars that are as storied as the musicians who play them. At the heart of the shop's ethos is a commitment to individuality, craftsmanship, and sonic integrity—values continued today through Cindy Guitars and the growing creative community within the space.SponsorsAre you interested in sponsoring this show or placing an ad in the podcast?Sponsorship

I found this old postcard the other day, and something about it pulled me right in. It shows a dimly lit room, heavy with shadow and curiosity. There's a man standing with a bird—maybe a parrot—perched on his arm. A woman leans against the back bar. You can just make out a bartender. There's a large wooden chest in the corner, chains hanging from the wall, and rough-hewn beams that look like they've seen more than a century of stories. This isn't just a bar. It's something else. It feels like a set from a play, or maybe a place where the curtain never fully drops. That's when I knew—I was looking at a piece of history from New York's old Pirate's Den...

Millions of people in more than a hundred countries march at Pride festivities each year. Attendees come mostly to express support for lesbian, gay, bisexual, trans gender, queer and intersex people — the LGBTQI+ community. And although Pride may be on every continent, there's a swathe of countries where Pride still is not freely celebrated. Take Russia, where a court last decade issued a one-hundred-year ban on Pride events. Or Turkey, where police in recent years have been harassing, attacking and detaining activists and members of the LGBTQ+ community. And then there's Hungary, which is inside the EU but out of step with its laws and values. This year Hungary's illiberal prime minister Viktor Orbán said he intended to stop Pride in the capital Budapest, on the pretext of child-protection. Under-18s are supposedly at risk from so-called displays of homosexuality, displays that themselves were banned four years ago. That's a direct echo of Russia's anti-LGBT statute on Protecting Children and Traditional Family Values signed into law by Vladimir Putin more than a decade ago. This month Hungarian police duly imposed the Budapest ban that Orbán called for. And they added a dystopian touch: facial recognition technology. Attendees identified at Budapest Pride could face fines of 500 euros; they also could face neofascist thugs from far-right splinter groups. But Budapest mayor Gergely Karácsony says this year's event is going ahead this weekend just the same. After all, Budapest has had Pride marches for the best part of three decades. It's also worth recalling that Pride was born out of state repression. The first marches were held in the early 70s in a handful of US cities to mark the anniversary of the Stonewall Riots. That name, Stonewall, comes from a bar, the Stonewall Inn, in New York City's Greenwich Village. The gay and transgender patrons of the Stonewall had grown sick of police harassment and abuse, and their uprising in 1969 still marks a key moment for civil rights movements everywhere. One beneficiary of such hard-won victories is Marc Angel, one of five so-called Quaestors at the European Parliament overseeing matters affecting the chamber's 705 members. Marc is a Socialist from Luxembourg and also co-president of the European Parliament's intergroup on LGBTIQ+ rights. For him, this weekend's Budapest Pride events amount to a protest — a protest against bogus limits on freedom of assembly in Hungary, and a protest against an international anti-gender movement, backed by Russia, supported by US ultraconservatives, and aimed at polarizing societies and weakening democracy.Support the show

There’s no moment in queer history more celebrated than the Stonewall riots, which set off the modern LGBTQ+ rights movement. There’s also no event that’s more hotly debated. To separate the truth from the myth, we first step onto the streets of Greenwich Village, a mecca of queer culture in the 60s. By all accounts The Stonewall Inn at the heart of the Village was a dump, but it was also the only place queer people could dance, making it an instant favorite among neighborhood hangouts. But how did one Saturday night at the bar change the course of history? And what was Marsha’s role in how it all jumped off? But wait, before you fast forward to Pride today and fade to the credits, we take a closer look at the organizing that followed the riots and the ways it excluded the very people who were on the front lines, people like Marsha.

Barbra Streisand has been a huge presence in American entertainment—music, film, and stage—for more than sixty years. She was the youngest person ever to achieve the EGOT, winning Emmy, Grammy, Oscar, and Tony awards by the age of twenty-seven. At eighty-three years old, Streisand is releasing a new album, “The Secret of Life: Partners, Volume 2.” It's a collection of duets featuring Paul McCartney, Bob Dylan, and Seal, along with younger artists including Hozier, Sam Smith, and Ariana Grande. Streisand sat down with David Remnick to talk about the record and the history behind it. Bob Dylan, for one, apparently had a crush on the singer from afar. “We were both nineteen years old in Greenwich Village, never met each other,” Streisand says. “I remember him sending me flowers and writing me a card in different color pencils, like a child's writing, you know. And ‘Would you sing with me?' And I thought, What would I sing with him?” Streisand talks with Remnick about her complicated childhood with her mother, who was jealous of her talent; her dislike of live performance; and the classy way to rebuff a come-on from Marlon Brando.
