What Does the Next Generation Believe About Marriage?

MK Davis joins us live to discuss hidden truths.

Although they cater to different senses, photography and music share much in common. In both these arts, timing, rhythm, and mood are key. It's been a while since we've mixed photography and music on the show, so we're particularly excited about today's chat with two photographers who share a passion for documenting musicians and their fans—in particular, devotes of punk and indie rock. From early memories of being truly moved by music to practical tips about photo access, image rights and restrictions, plus the complexities of organizing your work for a book, the conversation doesn't miss a beat. So, turn up the volume as Bootsy Holler reminisces about dropping into the Seattle music scene in the early 1990's to capture the raw energy of her favorite bands, now compiled in the book Making It: An Intimate Documentary about the Seattle Indie, Rock and Punk Scene. And Chris Ortiz describes how the house parties he captured at a punk commune in Kansas served as the foundation for his skills as a music photographer with a keen eye for differentiating himself in the photo pit. As Chris points out when it comes to preparing for a show. "It goes back to knowing that music and knowing the band, and being able to sit back and say, Yes, I am a fan of the band, but I also am professional, so this is what I'm going to look for when the band comes out." Guests: Bootsy Holler & Chris Ortiz Episode Timeline: 3:20: Bootsy Holler recalls her early days dropping into the Seattle music scene, photographing garage bands and dive bars. 9:41: Chris Ortiz talks about his start in photography, and his time photographing house parties at a punk rock commune in Lawrence, Kansas. 12:01: The difference between documenting live music and making portraits of musicians, where you need to develop a rapport with your subjects.  17:32: A tip of the hat to Chris as a longtime podcast superfan, plus what he's learned from listening to our 10-year archive of shows.   20:20: Bootsy's early stylistic influences and its effect on her art and music photography. 25:54: The earliest memory of being truly moved by music and the songs Bootsy and Chris were listening to when they truly got it. 31:56: Applying the inner feels of music to photographing a concert and connecting with the rhythm to grab key moments. 39:00: Negotiating access, shooting from the photo pit vs the side of the stage, plus differentiating your pictures from other photographers' work. 48:00: Episode Break 48:56: Chris talks more about current dynamics for gaining access when shooting music and concerts.  53:44: Current limits on concert photo usage and restrictions on contracts offered by some artists and entertainment companies. 58:28: Legal parameters related to pictures in Bootsy's book, plus the difference between concert pictures and portrait situations. 1:02:26: Bootsy's nine-year process of assembling a book, working with a designer for big picture decisions, plus leaving room to break the rules. 1:08:09: Finding publishers, choosing between options, plus the importance of owning the rights to your images. 1:10:20: Bootsy and Chris name the band at the top of their bucket lists to photograph.   Guest Bios: Bootsy Holler has spent 30 years capturing the essential personality and emotions of her subjects. Best known for her work as a portraitist, Bootsy's journey began with intimate depictions of herself and friends at the center of Seattle's pivotal music scene during the early 1990s. These formative years at both ends of the lens cemented her style as well as the methodology behind her empathic and journalistic approach. Bootsy's work has been recognized by the Society of Photographic Journalism and twice selected for the Critical Mass Top 50. Her photos have been exhibited and published internationally and are included in the permanent collection of the Grammy Museum. In 2019 she published the monograph, TREASURES: objects I've known all my life. Most recently, her book Making It: An Intimate Documentary about the Seattle Indie, Rock and Punk Scene, was released by Damiani books.

He's specialized in music and documentary subjects since 1998, shooting with both digital and medium format black and white film. After earning a bachelor's degree in art history, Chris obtained an MFA in photography from the Savannah College of Art and Design. Select documentary projects include Portraits of Latinx Identity, and We Are All We Have Tonight, featuring portraits and personal narratives from punk rock enthusiasts, describing each subject's connection to the scene. Additionally, Chris works as news editor for the Prescott Daily Courier, covering area news and events.  Stay Connected: Website: https://www.chris-ortiz.com/  Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/fastboyent/   Credits: Host: Derek Fahsbender Senior Creative Producer: Jill Waterman Senior Technical Producer: Mike Weinstein Executive Producer: Richard Stevens

It takes wisdom to know when to speak and grace to know how.

This week, the Holler sits down with Reed Galen—veteran GOP strategist turned democracy defender, co-founder of The Lincoln Project, founder of The Union, and host of The Home Front podcast.Reed opens up about his decades inside Republican politics—from running campaigns for John McCain, George W. Bush, and Arnold Schwarzenegger, to walking away from the party when Trumpism took hold. He talks war stories from the campaign trail, what really happened inside the McCain–Palin operation, and why he believes both parties helped create today's political crisis.We dig into the collapse of trust in democracy, why working-class voters are abandoning the left, and how Democrats keep losing the messaging war. Reed doesn't hold back on the failures of the establishment, the rise of MAGA, and what it'll take to rebuild a politics rooted in belief, honesty, and results—not purity tests or platitudes.Connect with Reed at https://substack.com/@reedgalenThe Hometown Holler is made possible by the generous support of our monthly sustainers.

The Power of the 41st Day!

Post Malone BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.Post Malone has dominated recent headlines with a flurry of activity across fashion, music, and legal circles. According to Holler and multiple country and pop culture outlets, Post Malone dropped the official release date of his much-anticipated clothing label, Austin Post Apparel, announcing that The Permanent Collection would finally be available online starting Thursday, October 23. This line features denim, fleece, outerwear, and accessories, all crafted for durability and a modern Western look reflecting Post's country influences. Though there's still speculation about whether pieces from his Paris runway show or the recent New York pop-up will be included, Post teased the drop with behind-the-scenes video clips that have fans buzzing.At the same time, Post is embroiled in a headline-grabbing lawsuit filed by Larry Deuel, a limo driver who claims he was never paid nor formally released for his prominent cameo in Post's 2020 Tommy Lee video with Tyla Yaweh. According to sources like The Daily Mail, AllHipHop, and TMZ, Deuel has been trying to resolve the payment dispute for years and is now asking the courts for $10 million, citing breach of contract, misappropriation of likeness, and fraudulent inducement. No formal response from Post's camp yet, though the story is picking up steam in legal and entertainment circles.Malone's business empire isn't being slowed by legal drama. He recently celebrated the grand opening of his Nashville bar, Posty's, with a blowout event featuring surprise performances from Lainey Wilson and Brooks & Dunn, drawing over 30000 fans, as reported by AllHipHop. Not stopping there, he's also been confirmed as a 2026 Stagecoach headliner, further cementing his crossover from hip hop to country dominance.On social media, Post's clothing announcement made waves, but he also found himself trending due to an unrelated viral story out of California, where local police humorously dubbed a package theft suspect Postal Malone for his resemblance to the rapper. The Irvine Police's pun-filled Instagram post contributed to Malone's name trending, though the man in question is not connected to the artist.For fashion archivists, the Country Music Hall of Fame is now displaying the vintage jacket Post wore in his 2024 video with Dwight Yoakam, reinforcing his deepening country credentials. Financial news writers also continue to marvel at his growing net worth and diversified investments, while hits from his latest cross-genre collaborations dot the top of current music charts and playlists. No major personal controversies, tour cancellations, or health rumors are circulating at this time—Post's momentum, despite legal headaches, is showing no sign of slowing down.Get the best deals https://amzn.to/3ODvOtaThis content was created in partnership and with the help of Artificial Intelligence AI

Weekly Shopping Report No shopping trip this week. Frugality Tip Did you know that if you put something in your online cart at Amazon (and some other online stores), when the price changes they notify you via email. So if you are looking to buy something but it is a little out of your budget, throw it in the cart and you just might be notified when it goes on sale. Also, when looking around on eBay, go ahead and click that heart, a lot of sellers will send you a discounted offer just for liking an item. So have a little patience and wait and see if you can save a few dollars on your next online purchase. Happy savings y'all ~Margo Operation Independence We opened up the Basecamp Airbnb — and one hour later it rented for four days! That single booking covered baseline expenses for the property (though not the mortgage). Still, a solid win toward independence. Main Topic: Organizing a Real Farm to Table Dinner Why We're Doing One We wanted to show what real farm-to-table actually means — not marketing, not a photo op. A community meal built from what local farmers are actually harvesting right now, cooked by people who understand those ingredients. Why It's Harder Than a Typical Event This isn't catered convenience food. The chef has to process everything from raw ingredients, not pre-trimmed or par-cooked product.  Every ingredient is sourced directly from farms, not distributors.  Timing is critical — you plan the menu around what's in season, not what's available year-round from a big box store. This is NOT your typical farm-to-table experience. We're not highlighting one or two local dishes and then filling the rest from Costco. Every ingredient — except the pepper and the coffee (which I roast) — comes from right here in Tennessee. No shortcuts. What Other Farm to Table Events Get Wrong Most are “farm to table” in name only — a token nod to local producers while relying heavily on imported or processed foods. They miss the deeper connection between local abundance, timing, and community. Steps to Organizing One Source the food: Build relationships with local growers and producers.  Find a venue: Needs to be accessible, scenic, and functional for cooking and serving.  Create a semi-flexible menu: Base it on what farmers actually have that week.  Explore legalities: Health codes, insurance, and any required permits.  Add extras: Things like a wild edible walk turn the dinner into an experience.  Sell the tickets: Clear messaging — you're selling an authentic experience, not a restaurant meal.  Handle logistics the day of: Setup, cooking flow, seating, lighting, cleanup. Customer Experience How do you keep the night flowing smoothly and still make it feel personal?  How do you balance talking about the farms with letting guests simply enjoy the meal?  Scaling the Concept Could this become a recurring or seasonal event?  What lessons are you already learning for next time?  Make It A Great Week.

What does it really mean to live fully expressed — even when fear shows up at every turn? In this conversation, Judi Holler shares her journey of embracing self-expression, stepping into her power, and transforming fear into fuel. From her roots in improv and professional speaking to the moment she boldly claimed the title of “self-expressionist,” Judi reveals the courage it takes to pursue a path that defies expectations. How do you learn to dance with fear instead of letting it hold you back? Together, we explore the idea that fear isn't something to conquer but something to befriend, and how building a “tolerance for pain” often separates those who quit too soon from those who find lasting success. Judi also opens up about how Human Design has supported her in recognizing her own energy and honoring her unique way of leading and creating. Ever wondered what it feels like to stop playing small and own the fullness of who you are? Judi takes us behind the scenes of her new book Holler at Your Dreams — part oracle, part creative manifesto — and shares the story of a pivotal moment with IBM that gave her the confidence to stop toning herself down and start showing up bigger and bolder. If you've been craving a reminder that the most powerful strategy is simply being yourself, this episode will leave you inspired to chase your own dreams with courage, clarity, and unapologetic authenticity.
