    From suburban England to the front lines of the punk revolution and the stadium stages of MTV era rock, Billy Idol has spent a lifetime reinventing what rebellion looks like.In this episode of Full Disclosure, James O'Brien sits down with the singer to trace an extraordinary life that began in a childhood split between England and the United States, moving between places and possibilities before music gave him a sense of direction. Idol reflects on growing up in a close knit family, the influence of his parents, and the early restlessness that would eventually pull him towards London at the moment punk was beginning to erupt.They discuss the raw energy of the mid seventies scene and the formation of Generation X, when a group of young musicians with little formal training suddenly found themselves at the centre of a cultural explosion. Idol recalls the excitement of those early days, when punk felt less like a genre and more like a declaration that a new generation had something to say.From there the conversation moves to New York, reinvention and the birth of the unmistakable Billy Idol persona that would come to dominate the early years of MTV. He reflects on fame, excess and survival, the uneasy balance between punk credibility and global success, and how rock and roll changed as the movement he came from entered the mainstream.Frank, reflective and full of energy, this is a conversation about rebellion, reinvention and the enduring power of rock and roll.Billy Idol Should Be Dead documentary, coming to Sky Arts on 26th MarchEXCLUSIVE NordVPN Deal -> https://nordvpn.com/fulldisclosure Try it risk-free now with a 30-day money-back guarantee

    Episode No. 749 features curator Mari Carmen Ramírez and Isabelle Frances McGuire. Ramírez is the curator of "Frida: The Making of an Icon" at the Museum of Fine Arts, Houston. The exhibition reveals how Frida Kahlo went from virtually unknown to mainstream audiences at the time of her death in 1954 to becoming famed as both an artist and as a kind of celebrity icon. Among the factors it identifies are North American geopolitics, the role of culture in the promotion of nationhood, tourism, and international trade, and more. "Frida" features more than 30 works by Kahlo and 120 more by five generations of artists she inspired. It is on view at the MFAH through May 17. A fascinating catalogue was published by the MFAH in association with Yale University Press. Amazon and Bookshop offer it for about $60. McGuire is included in the 2026 biennial exhibition at the Whitney Museum of American Art, New York. The show was curated by Marcela Guerrero and Drew Sawyer with Beatriz Cifuentes and Carina Martinez. It's on view through August 23. This segment was taped when McGuire was included in the Museum of Contemporary Art Chicago's "Descending the Staircase" exhibition in 2024. McGuire is a Chicago-based artist whose work considers the body and how our understanding of it can be filtered by video games, film, animatronics, and other technologies. The 2024 MCA Chicago exhibition marked her first inclusion in a museum exhibition; since then McGuire has shown at Artist's Space, New York, and at the Renaissance Society, Chicago.

    A Breath of Fresh Air

    Play Episode Listen Later Mar 11, 2026 52:00


    Ralph McTell is one of Britain's most enduring and respected singer-songwriters, a master storyteller whose songs have become woven into the fabric of English folk music. Born in Kent and raised in Croydon, McTell developed an early love for American blues, folk and traditional British music. As a teenager he was captivated by artists such as Woody Guthrie and Ramblin' Jack Elliott, influences that shaped both his fingerstyle guitar technique and his gift for narrative songwriting.After studying at art school in the early '60s, Ralph began busking and performing in London's thriving folk clubs, quickly building a reputation for his intricate guitar work and warm, conversational stage presence. He signed with a record company in the late '60s, releasing his self-titled debut album in '68. His breakthrough came in '69 with “Streets of London,” a song inspired by his travels in Paris and London, where he encountered loneliness and poverty firsthand. The song's gentle melody and compassionate lyrics struck a deep chord. Though it became a hit in the early '70s and was later re-released to even greater success, its impact went far beyond chart positions. It became one of the most covered songs in British music history, recorded by hundreds of artists worldwide and earning McTell the prestigious Ivor Novello Award for songwriting. Throughout the '70s, Ralph toured extensively releasing many albums. While “Streets of London” often overshadowed his broader catalogue, McTell consistently proved himself far more than a one-song artist. In the '80s, Ralph broadened his scope. He composed music for children's tv and wrote songs for stage productions. His collaborations included projects with fellow folk legend Wizz Jones and work alongside various orchestras.A defining characteristic of Ralph McTell's career has been his longevity and consistency. Rather than chasing trends, he has remained devoted to craftsmanship. In the 2000s and beyond, McTell continued to record and tour, releasing albums that revisited his influences and explored new material. He has also been honoured for his contributions to music, including receiving an OBE in 2010 for services to folk music.Today, Ralph McTell stands as a cornerstone of British folk songwriting. His legacy rests not only on a single iconic anthem, but on decades of carefully crafted songs that chronicle ordinary lives with empathy and grace. With his distinctive fingerpicking style, warm tenor voice and unflinching eye for human stories, McTell has carved out a body of work that continues to resonate across generations.More than half a century after he first stepped onto the folk club stage, Ralph McTell remains what he has always been: a storyteller with a guitar, shining a quiet light on the corners of life others might overlook.

    Homily: Matter, Incarnation, and the Art of Communion

    Homily for the Sunday of Orthodoxy On the Sunday of Orthodoxy, the Church celebrates more than the restoration of icons in 843; she proclaims the full implications of the Incarnation. Drawing from St. John of Damascus, St. Theodore the Studite, Genesis, and the theology of beauty, this homily explores how Christ restores not only matter, but humanity's creative vocation. In Him, we are not merely icons — we are iconographers, shaping our marriages, friendships, and parishes into visible proclamations of the Gospel. --- The Restoration of the Image — and the Hands That Shape It Today we celebrate the restoration of the holy icons. In the year 843, after years of persecution and confusion, the Church once again lifted up the images of Christ, His Mother, and the saints. The Church proclaimed that icons are not idols. They are not violations of the commandments. They are proclamations of the Gospel of salvation through our Lord Jesus Christ. But if we reduce this feast to a historical victory or a doctrinal correction, we miss its depth. The Sunday of Orthodoxy is not only about winning a theological argument or correcting decades of injustices. It is about restoring something in humanity itself. We were made in the image and likeness of God.  Our image is corrupted not just by sin, but by a particular way of missing the mark: bad theology.  This isn't just about the suitability of having icons in worship; it's about us and our role in the Great Restoration. I. Matter and the Incarnation [You see,] Iconoclasm was not merely about pictures. It was about mediation. Can matter reveal God? Can created things proclaim the uncreated? [And especially this:] Can human hands shape something that participates in divine glory? On the first two questions, St. John of Damascus, answered with stunning clarity: "I do not worship matter; I worship the Creator of matter who became matter for my sake." And again: "When the Invisible One becomes visible in the flesh, you may then depict the likeness of Him who was seen." The Incarnation changes everything. If Christ truly assumed flesh — if He entered matter — if He allowed Himself to be seen and touched — then matter is not a barrier to communion. It becomes a vehicle of it. St. Theodore the Studite pressed this further. To reject the icon, he argued, is to weaken the confession that Christ truly became man. If He can be described in words, He can be depicted in color. We know that;"the honor given to the image passes to the prototype." The icon does not trap Christ in wood and paint; it confesses that He truly entered history. The restoration of the icons is the restoration of the Incarnation's full implications. II. Genesis: The First Iconography But to understand this feast completely, we must go back to Genesis. In the beginning, God creates. He speaks, and the world comes into being. And again and again we hear: "It is good." And finally: "It is very good." Creation is not neutral. It is beautiful. It reveals without containing. And in its beauty, it points beyond itself. Creation itself is iconographic. And humanity is made in the image and likeness of God.  And here I don't mean as an icon of Him.  We are going deeper into the mystery. Adam is placed in the garden not merely as a spectator, but as a cultivator. He names. He tends. He shapes. He receives creation from God and participates in its ordering. Humanity's vocation was always creative — not to rival God, but to cooperate with Him. Sin distorted that vocation. Instead of shaping toward communion and moving things to greater grace, we grow thorns and thistles.  Creation groans in travail.  And in our fallenness we forget the beauty of creation and turn it into an instrument to satisfy our own desires.  [We exercise the power poorly, without grace.] Some think that this misunderstanding came about as a result of the enlightenment or of capitalism.  Today we are reminded that the temptation to pervert our role in creation is much, much, older – iconoclasm was just another in a long line of perversity and deception. Iconoclasm is not only the smashing of panels. It is the denial that creation — and humanity — can [and should] bear glory. III. The Icon as Transfigured Humanity Leonid Ouspensky reminds us that the icon is not simply religious art. It is dogma in color. It expresses the Church's lived experience of salvation. The icon does not portray humanity as it appears in fallen naturalism [there are no shadows], but as it is restored and transfigured in Christ. The elongated figures. The stillness. The inverted perspective. These are not stylistic quirks. They proclaim something: Man is not closed in on himself.  He is opened toward eternity.vThe icon reveals humanity healed. The restoration of icons in 843 was not merely permission to paint. It was the declaration that man, in Christ, may once again shape matter toward glory. IV. Beauty That Forms Vision We have spoken often about beauty. Beauty is not decoration. It is goodness and truth made visible. The Church building is not a neutral space. It is a reordered world. The dome lifts our eyes. The iconostasis teaches hierarchy without domination. The chant trains our breath and disciplines our attention. Beauty heals perception.  Iconoclasm was not only doctrinal confusion. It was blindness. Orthodoxy restores sight. V. The Turn: You Are an Iconographer But now we must go deeper. The Sunday of Orthodoxy is not only about painted panels. It is about restored humanity. As a member of the royal priesthood, made in the image and likeness of God;  You are a subcreator [Tolkein). You are an iconographer. In Genesis, God creates — and then entrusts creation to man. Humanity was made not only to reflect glory, but to cultivate and shape the world so that it reveals and glorifies God more clearly. Christ restores that vocation to you, His royal priesthood. If He is the true Image of the Father, and if we are renewed in His likeness through Christ, then our creative capacity is healed. And this means, most especially, our relationships.  Only a few of us have the eye and hand to be iconographers in the classic sense [I don't], but all of us are called to paint, as it were, our love with the people around us. Every word is a brushstroke. Every graceful silence lays background color. Every act of patience draws a line. Every act of pride distorts proportion. We are painting our marriages. We are composing our friendships. We are shaping the soul of our parish. The question is not whether we are iconographers; whether we are artists. The question is what we are painting; what we are creating. Marriage Marriage is not two finished icons placed side by side. It is collaborative iconography. Patience becomes the background wash. Forbearance outlines the figures. Forgiveness restores the light when shadows creep in. An icon must have proportion and balance. So must a marriage. If one insists always on being right, the lines warp. If resentment lingers, the colors darken. But when humility returns again and again, the image clarifies. Friendship Friendship is also creative labor. We shape one another through attention and restraint. Do we magnify one another's anger? Or soften it? Do we sharpen cynicism? Or cultivate gratitude? True friendship paints with gentleness. Patience lays the foundation. Forbearance preserves harmony. Grace keeps the symmetry intact. When two friends bear one another quietly, Christ becomes visible between them. Parish We have a lot of art here, but a parish is not a museum of icons. It is a workshop. Every unseen act of service adds gold leaf. Every quiet forgiveness restores damaged color. Every refusal to gossip preserves the symmetry of grace. The beauty of a parish is not first in its architecture. It is in the patience of its people. Conclusion St. John of Damascus defended matter. St. Theodore defended the Incarnation. Ouspensky reminds us that the icon reveals man transfigured. The Sunday of Orthodoxy proclaims that in Christ, humanity's creative vocation is restored. Matter can bear glory. Human hands can proclaim truth. Relationships can reveal Christ. In Christ, our sight is healed. In Christ, our hands are healed. The only question remaining is this: What are we painting? Amen.

    In this episode of Geek Freaks, Frank sits down with Lenore Zann, the iconic voice of Rogue, for a conversation that goes far beyond animation. Lenore opens up about what still makes Rogue such a layered and powerful character, how she approached returning for X-Men '97, and why bringing Rogue into Marvel Rivals still feels true to the version fans have loved for decades. The conversation also explores Lenore's memoir A Rogue's Tale, her work in Canadian politics, the fight against environmental racism, and the deeper emotional themes inside Rogue's story that continue to connect with fans. Timestamps and Topics: 00:00 Welcome and introducing Lenore Zann 00:55 How politics added even more sass to Rogue 01:30 What makes Rogue such a compelling and layered character 03:56 Lenore's acting philosophy and why voice acting starts with acting 06:32 Becoming the voice fans still hear when they read Rogue 07:09 Rogue's trauma, Gambit, Magneto, and the emotional weight of X-Men '97 10:22 Bringing Rogue into Marvel Rivals and adding new personality to the role 12:35 Why Rogue could be one of the best leaders in the X-Men 14:33 Rogue as a role model for women, LGBTQ fans, and anyone feeling othered 18:41 Lenore's political work and helping bring attention to environmental racism 20:49 A Rogue's Tale, audiobooks, mythology, and the power of storytelling 24:41 Lightning round begins with dream roles and future acting goals 26:52 The director's note Lenore will never forget 32:39 The role she wishes more fans would ask about 34:06 New music, film development, and an animated project based on her father's books 35:51 Comic cons, cosplay, and wrapping up with Lenore Key Takeaways: Lenore sees Rogue as powerful because she balances strength, vulnerability, loyalty, and pain. Her approach to voice work is rooted in full performance, not just reading lines. Rogue's decisions in X-Men '97 make more sense when viewed through trauma and grief. Marvel Rivals gave Lenore room to bring even more of her own personality into Rogue. Lenore believes Rogue's greatest strength as a leader is compassion and self-sacrifice. The conversation tied Rogue's story to real-world themes like identity, acceptance, grief, and justice. Lenore's activism and political work show how her values carry beyond the booth and onto a larger stage. A Rogue's Tale adds even more depth to her journey as an artist, survivor, and storyteller. Memorable Quotes: "Voice acting is acting." "I've been living in your head rent free for 30 years." "Some things are deeper than skin." "There ain't no cure for who you are."

The growth comes at a steep price: the company burned $3.8 billion in cash in 2025, announced its third layoff in three years (cutting 12% of US salaried staff), and is banking on a new ~$50,000 midsize SUV later in 2026.EU PETROL AND DIESEL SHARE SLIDES AGAINEU new car registrations fell 3.9% in January 2026, but the real story is the collapse in fossil fuel powertrains: the combined petrol and diesel share fell from 39.5% a year ago to just 30.1%, down from 48.7% in January 2024, with petrol registrations dropping 28.2% year-on-year across France, Germany, Italy, and Spain. Pure BEVs took a 19.3% share (up from 14.9% twelve months prior), and electrified powertrains collectively accounted for around 68% of all January registrations.COMMISSION DELAYS "MADE IN EUROPE" PROCUREMENT ACTThe European Commission's Industrial Accelerator Act — which would add a "European preference" to public procurement, including a 70% EU-origin threshold for electric vehicles — has been delayed for a fourth time, now targeting a 4 March presentation. The UK has raised concerns that any protectionist tilt could damage cross-Channel automotive supply chains, given the EU is the largest export market for UK-built cars.VOLVO RECALLS 40,323 EX30S OVER FIRE RISKVolvo has issued a formal recall of 40,323 EX30 Single-Motor Extended Range and Twin-Motor Performance vehicles over a battery overheating risk — caused by lithium plating growth in cells from Shandong Geely Sunwoda Power Battery Co — that could trigger a fire. Volvo will replace the battery modules free of charge, but has disputed Reuters' estimate that the replacements alone could cost around $195 million, while continuing to advise owners to cap charging at 70% until their vehicle is fixed.T&E PUSHES EU TO TOUGHEN CORPORATE EV QUOTASTransport & Environment, an NGO advocating for clean transport, is urging the EU to raise corporate fleet EV targets to 69% zero-emission vehicles by 2030 — well above the Commission's proposed 45% — while excluding PHEVs entirely, arguing that company car drivers rarely plug in and routinely exceed lab-test emissions figures. Corporate buyers account for roughly 60% of new EU car sales, and T&E says its stricter targets would deliver 1.9 million additional EU-made EV sales in 2030, versus 1.2 million under the current Commission plan, while redirecting €42 billion in annual fossil fuel company car tax subsidies toward EU-built EVs.VAUXHALL CONFIRMS ELECTRIC CORSA GSE FOR 2026Vauxhall has confirmed a fully electric Corsa GSE for 2026, the brand's first hot hatch in eight years and the second model under its revived GSE performance sub-brand. The car is expected to carry over the Mokka GSE's 276bhp front motor, 54kWh battery, Torsen limited-slip differential, and Alcon brakes — a combination that delivers 0–62mph in 5.9 seconds on the Mokka, matching the Mini Cooper Electric JCW.RENAULT TO BUY OUT FLEXIS PARTNERSRenault plans to take full ownership of Flexis, its electric van joint venture, by buying out partners Volvo Group and CMA CGM — part of a broader retrenchment under new CEO François Provost that also sees the Ampere EV and software unit folded back into Renault Group by as early as July 2026. The first Flexis product, the Renault Trafic Van E-Tech, remains on track for production at Sandouville before the end of 2026, with Renault Trucks distributing the van from 2027 under an existing light commercial vehicle partnership.LEPAS CONFIRMS L8 SUV FOR UK LAUNCHChery-owned Lepas has confirmed its L8 SUV as its first UK model, with a summer 2026 launch expected and full specifications still to come. The most likely powertrain is the plug-in hybrid system shared with the UK-spec Jaecoo 7 — a 1.5-litre petrol engine paired with an electric motor and 18.3kWh battery delivering 56 miles of electric range and 204bhp total — with a pure EV variant expected to follow.HONDA ICON E: ELECTRIC SCOOTER HITS ¥220,000 IN JAPANHonda has launched the ICON e: electric scooter in Japan at ¥220,000 (~$1,435 / €1,350), undercutting its own petrol mopeds by around ¥20,000 and claiming 81km (50 miles) of range via a removable, swappable Mobile Power Pack e: battery. Accessible from age 16 under Japan's moped licence class — mirroring the EU's AM category — the ICON e: is designed for urban practicality over headline specs, and its sub-€1,400 price positions it well as European cities continue to tighten low-emission zones.

    During this episode, we do a quick recap of our v-day’s before Demaris asks Mal a wild question that leads him on a rant. We then address LaRussel’s viral critique of Lil Wayne, and how media clips can be taken out of context, with Rory addressing his viral Doechii take. DJ Vlad also went viral with a tweet that people misunderstood. We give a quick take on All Star Weekend (breaking news: still trash), and then get into new music. Mal has a take on Brent’s album and what it means for his career moving forward. We have a voicemail from a caller who we have to kink shame, and then address a heavy loss for New York City.
