Schindler is a name most everyone knows, for different reasons – and for different Schindlers.  There's Schindler the elevator and escalator company, founded in 1874.  There's German industrialist Oscar Schindler, hero of the 1993 movie Schindler's List, who saved more than a thousand refugees from the Nazis.  Then there's Austrian Rudolf Schindler, the architect, who initially worked for Frank Lloyd Wright.  In 1920 Wright sent Schindler west to Los Angeles. Schindler started moonlighting in 1922, which Wright hated, and eventually Schindler quit to became a huge success on his own.  He and wife Pauline hosted many events at their Kings Road house, a model of architectural brilliance that's now 100 years old.   LA photographer Mona Kuhn got her first camera at 12 and she studied at Ohio State and the San Francisco Art Institute. Exhibited internationally, she has published several books of photography, her most recent entitled Kings Road, featuring Rudolf Schindler's Kings Road House. Later, we found out that USModernist's own Michela O'Connor-Abrams lived there as a child - and witnessed a secret late night burglary.   Later, profound cello with musical guest Helen Gillet.

Budgets and math might not be Helen Gillet s strong point 3x6 Guy Madden but she is able to explain the physics of Indian musical scales. Oh, and incidentally, play them. On a cello no less.

In the next 60 minutes you re going to hear how a relatively successful New York City accordion player broke down on stage, became a Buddhist cult leader, and inadvertently gave birth to the Gwendolyn Molson Quartet. Leslie Molson tells the story and many more besides, including how she cured having a fat face and tiny eyes with a tube of eye shadow and the difference between the microscopic mites on your face and hers. If that isn t a wild enough story for you, meet Charles Marsala. Charles has lived a number of lifetimes, apparently simultaneously. Charles grew up in New Orleans, became the mayor of Silicon Valley, transformed the US Air Force in Alaska, and is currently back in New Orleans saving the African Elephant from extinction. He has a TV show about saving wild animals and has written a book about finance. Is he New Orleans most interesting man Voting is open. Helen Gillet brings along her cello and her foot pedal rig that transforms her cello into an array of sounds from a drum and bass section to what sounds like an orchestra, guitars and an indescribable sonic wonderland that is not only rocking and rich, but you can barely believe it is all totally live. Andrew Duhon finished writing a song literally minutes before he plays it here. If you need any encouragement to check it out, it contains a line something like "My heart is like a rowboat I tow through land locked towns." Being a musician might be totally wrecking his love life but it s paying off in songs like this. Photos taken at Wayfare in Uptown New Orleans by Alison Moon.

What else could you say about anybody that could be more unique and interesting than all of that How about that Helen lived for a time in Madison Wisconsin where she was in an all girl punk band called The Koochies Even better, that she was the drummer. Helen also tells the story of her one and only Match.com blind date. How about this for a coincidence Like Helen Gillet, Angela Catalano and Travis Bird also lived for a time in Wisconsin Milwaukee and, unlike Helen, they re both Vegan. Not only that but they re also opening a new indie cinema in New Orleans Shotgun Cinema and they re dating. Travis also plays guitar and Helen joined him on an improvised treat. Arita Bohanan s first novel, Docket No. 76, has just been published. The novel combines Arita s early experiences as a victim of child sexual abuse and her current experience as a successful New Orleans trial attorney. In the novel, Arita lives out her revenge fantasy telling the story of an Assistant D.A. who is given the case of prosecuting a man for sexually abusing a child, only to discover when she confronts him in court that he is also the man who sexually abused her as a child. The Casa Borrega bourbon ice tea cocktails fuel a free wheeling conversation that swings from dating to sexual abuse to the Koochies and other inhabitants of Wisconsin basements.

With the Klezmer All Stars, the Naked Orchestra, and his work in numerous side projects, you'd think the guitarist/composer would have a full plate.

He's seemingly undaunted by a challenge, so let's see how he meets the test of the Ring Room. Topics include a Mardi Gras wrap-up, Thai food, Lent, a 100th episode party, a recording session, “Judy,” a London childhood, an L.A. teen, Uni High, McCabe's Music, Michael Ward, the Krewe of Julu, a rift, Helen Gillet, a dirty opera, Santa Cruz, free cigarettes, Walter Payton, Carl LeBlanc, Sun Ra, Fermin Muguruza & the N.O. Basque Orchestra, yoga training in India, a brush with death, a new perspective, a mystery disease, the “Esplanade” film, a debt of gratitude, and much more.
