Our second episode in Season 2 - and what an extraordinary episode too. My guest, Sanam Naraghi Anderlini, MBE—peace strategist, CEO of the International Civil Society Action Network, one of the few trained female UN peace negotiators, and host of the If You Were in Charge Podcast—had to reschedule this very recording due to a last-minute invitation to attend President Jimmy Carter's funeral. Her connection to one of history's great peacebuilders adds a poignant and inspiring dimension to this conversation. In this episode, Sanam introduces the concept of “quantum identities”—how our sense of self evolves with our environment—and explains why embracing this fluidity is key to fostering belonging. Drawing on nearly 30 years of peace building experience and her insights as a mother of identical twins, she explores how the dynamics of conflict and connection resonate in both personal and global contexts. Through captivating stories and transformative insights, Sanam shares practical strategies to navigate division, embrace complexity, and cultivate belonging in an increasingly fractured world. A powerful conversation that will leave you inspired to connect more deeply with yourself and others.

IF YOU WERE looking for evidence of a global catastrophe followed by a mysterious civilization that somehow survived, you might not start with the Americas.  However, contrarian investigator and author Graham Hancock has done just that with season 2 of his Netflix series Ancient Apocalypse. Our Iron and Myth crew gather to discuss Hancock's work in this second season. Joining us at the virtual round table is Dr. Judd Burton (www.BurtonBeyond.net), author of Interview with the Giant, Doug Van Dorn (www.douglasvandorn.com), author of Giants: Sons of the Gods, and Brian Godawa (www.Godawa.com), best-selling author of the theological thriller Cruel Logic, and a new novel based on the period of the Maccabees in Judea. Ancient Apocalypse is very well done. We discuss the questions it raises about lost civilizations, and the implications of new archaeological discoveries. We critique the documentary's potential biases and the role of propaganda in shaping narratives. The discussion also touches on the connections between ancient myths, geometric patterns, and the use of hallucinogenic substances in historical contexts, ultimately emphasizing the importance of understanding different worldviews in interpreting archaeological findings. We appreciate Hancock for asking the right questions. However, he's got a great big blind spot right in front of the answers. Also: New Age guru Billy Carson gets schooled by Christian apologist Wes Huff and then self-destructs with a major unforced error.

Welcome to RIMScast. Your host is Justin Smulison, Business Content Manager at RIMS, the Risk and Insurance Management Society.   Justin Smulison interviews Michael Zuraw about his career in risk management, including how the CHIPS Act impacts him and what it takes to lead ERM at a semiconductor manufacturer. Justin asks about Michael's RIMS ERM Award win, how new leadership at Onsemi has reacted to the program, how involved new leadership is in ERM, and how the program has changed since the win. Michael tells about his ERM 2024 sessions and how he likes his work with the SERMC.   Listen for ERM tips for improvement for your organization.   Key Takeaways: [:01] About RIMS.

On October 9th and 10th, Chris Hansen returns to deliver Fundamentals of Insurance. He's very popular in the Workers' Comp space. [2:30] In our prior episode, we had Elise Farnham of Illumine Consulting join us. She will be leading two upcoming courses for us. On September 25th and 26th, we've got Applying and Integrating ERM and on October 3rd and 4th, we have Fundamentals of Risk Management. [2:47]  Other dates for the Fall and Winter are available on the Virtual Workshops Calendar of RIMS.org/virtualworkshops. [2:56] Interview! Our guest today, Michael Zuraw, is a member of our Strategic and Enterprise Risk Management Council and is the Senior Director for Global Enterprise Risk Management at On Semiconductor. [3:16] I met Michael at the RIMS ERM Conference 2019 in New Orleans, where he accepted an ERM Global Award of Distinction honor for the program he leads at Onsemi. I wanted to catch up with him now and see how the program is evolving under new company leadership. [3:38] Michael will be presenting or co-presenting three sessions at the RIMS ERM Conference 2024 in Boston, so we'll talk all about that and we'll get his philosophies on what it takes to keep an award-winning ERM program going strong in 2024. Michael Zuraw, welcome to RIMScast! [4:21] Michael shares his memories of the RIMS ERM Conference 2019 at the Roosevelt Hotel in New Orleans. That was his first RIMS ERM event. He notes how collaborative ERM professionals are, whatever their industry or employer. [5:30] Justin and Michael collaborated on an interview for the ERM Q&A series. A link is in this interview's show notes. Since then, they have met at RISKWORLD and ERM Conferences. Michael feels honored to serve on the RIMS Strategic and Enterprise Risk Management Council. [6:15] Michael is the co-author of two upcoming RIMS Executive Reports and White Papers. The first is part of a series of scenario-planning guides, about the Pre-Mortem Exercise to unlock some risk identification and help to manage biases and risks that might cause you to fail. [7:00] The second paper is on risk interdependencies or interconnectedness. Risks don't stay in silos. We have risk registers by which we manage and organize risks, but generally, we underestimate risk because we don't account for the cascading effect of risk events. [7:45] Justin will update the show notes for this episode to reflect when these two papers come out. After September, listeners can check out the show notes and download these papers. [8:15] Michael has been in ERM at Onsemi for 10 years. His bachelor's and master's degrees are in electrical engineering. He worked in telecom before semiconductors. He worked on the business management side. [8:45] When Onsemi formalized its ERM program, it named a Chief Risk Officer. Michael had a conversation with him. If risk is going to be treated as part of a strategy, Michael was interested. If it was a governance or reporting function, it wasn't for Michael. [9:08] The Chief Risk Officer had a similar philosophy. He delegated putting the program together to Michael and supported him with what he needed. Michael had a lot of freedom. He's been doing it ever since. [9:54] Michael discusses how the CHIPS Act impacts Onsemi. They have a government affairs group to focus on that. Michael is always looking at what parts of their manufacturing and infrastructure need to expand. [10:25] The CHIPS Act provides an incentive for doing more pieces in the U.S. There are similar programs in other countries where Onsemi has a footprint. Onsemi is in 10 countries with 20-plus manufacturing sites and more, including sales and support functions. [10:50] Michael says they're always reviewing their footprint, where they need to expand, and how. Expanding the manufacturing of semiconductors takes tens of millions of dollars and years to build. When there is government support, every semiconductor company takes note. [11:46] Onsemi is a tech-heavy, engineering-heavy global company with 30,000 employees. You have to get very analytical with the engineering group. [12:33] Engineers are trained to solve problems full-speed ahead, using key assumptions they have in their heads. Michael is asking the organization to step back and hear what those assumptions are first. An assumption may be based 90% in fact but 10% in uncertainty. [13:19] Michael asks the organization to discuss the 10% probability that the opposite is true. That's where the risk lies. Can they make that 10% likelihood into 2%? That's risk mitigation. [13:34] In tech-heavy industries, we acknowledge and respect engineering training to solve problems, drive solutions, and work within their vocabulary. How do we put a risk framework into that model so the company's risk profile can be improved? It takes time. [14:02] Is Michael a patient person? It depends! More often than not. [14:53] When Michael won the ERM Global Award of Distinction for the ERM program at Onsemi, the Chief Risk Officer called the Chairman of the Board and the Risk Committee to let them know of the Award. It was vindication that the company was going in the right direction. [15:34] The Risk department felt they were seeing the positive impact of the ERM Program. They saw the industry felt the emerging risk topic they submitted with their application was innovative and positive. [15:55] That program within the ERM Program was well-regarded within the company and led people to think about the future and get into an open discussion. People wanted to participate. [16:30] About four years ago, Onsemi's long-time COO retired and new leadership came in. Michael tells how the ERM Program changed with the new leadership. They were much more focused on accountability and ownership. They wanted to remove self-reporting. [18:47] It's RIMS Plug Time! RIMS Webinars! On September 19th, Origami Risk returns to deliver Leveraging Integrated Risk Management For Strategic Advantage. On September 26th, Archer returns to discuss The Future of RMIS: Beyond Traditional Approaches. [19:07] On October 3rd, Diligent will host Mastering ERM: Leveraging Internal and External Risk Factors for Strategic Advantage. On October 10th, Zurich returns to present Long-Term Property Strategies for a Resilient Future. [19:24] On October 24th, HUB International returns for the fourth installment of their Ready for Tomorrow series, From AI to the SEC: The Future of D&O Litigation and Regulatory Exposures. [19:37] On November 4th, Justin will be hosting a special RIMS Webinar Presentation, Lessons from Veterans on Strategic Risk Leadership. That session will feature insights and perspectives from risk managers who had previously served in the U.S. Armed Services. [19:56] More webinars will be announced soon and added to the RIMS.org/webinars page. Go there to register. As always, registration is complimentary for RIMS members.  [20:08] The Spencer Educational Foundation's goal is to help build a talent pipeline of risk management and insurance professionals. That is achieved, in part, by a collaboration with risk management and insurance educators across the U.S. and Canada. [20:23] Whether you want to apply for a grant, participate in the Risk Manager on Campus program, or just learn more about Spencer, visit SpencerEd.org. [20:33] On that note, applications are being accepted for internship grants. Since 1999, Spenser has awarded over $2.7 million in internship grants to over 540 recipients. To be eligible, risk managers must be based in the United States, Canada, or Bermuda. [20:51] The application deadline is October 15th, 2024. Awardees are typically notified at the beginning of December. A link to the Internship Grants page is in this episode's show notes. [21:05] Let's Return to My Interview with Michael Zuraw! [21:23] The program shifted with new management to an open 45-minute interview. Michael doesn't ask individuals about any specific risk but starts them talking about their concerns relative to company strategy and execution. [21:42] It's much more challenging to analyze the input from the interview but it identifies items the company might otherwise miss. [21:52] The issues are ranked and tiered. Then it comes down to assigning ownership and accountability. Leaders pick out issues each year and assign cross-functional teams with action plans to address them. Bonus goals are tied to the plans. [22:16] Depending on what the company, the board, and the risk committees want to focus on, the teams must be comfortable with making adjustments. The program and ERM managers can be successful as the shifts happen. Be open-minded to new approaches and ideas. Be flexible. [23:10] Onsemi just finished its fourth cycle of interviews and action teams, as the ERM program is in its 10th year. In its first five years, it had reached maturity. Then under new management, it took time to adapt to the interviews and analyze the data. [23:48] Michael says, now in our fourth cycle of interviews, our maturity level is back up. We have good interactions with the board and several committees within the board. We have an executive risk committee that we function very well with. We're much more efficient in doing it. [24:11] Onsemi has integrated some AI processing of interviews. Michael has himself and a staff of two. As they get more efficient, they conduct better interviews because they're not worried about taking notes and getting the notes right. [24:35] As the ERM program matures, the ERM managers get better at their jobs and their interviewees get better at identifying risks. [24:52] At the ERM Conference on November 18th Michael will lead two sessions. He will lead the “Dancing with Uncertainty” morning session. Michael says this is a discussion on decision process, decision-making, decision quality, and risk. [25:26] It's not uncommon for executives to believe that the higher the title, the better the decision-making skill. Michael disagrees. There is an approach of discipline in decision-making that allows you to understand uncertainty and how it leads to risk. [26:00] Michael often says that if everyone in your company, from janitor to CEO and everyone in between, were 20% more disciplined in how they make decisions, your company would be doing quite a bit better. So, what discipline can be applied to decision-making to reduce risk? [26:29] In the afternoon, a member of Michael's staff, Alicia Tuckett, will present “The Illusion of Insight: Why Risk Interviews Fail to Deliver,” on how to do open-ended interviews, analyze the conversational input, and turn it into risk statements, risk categories, and data to analyze. [29:23] Michael hopes to solicit the crowd for ideas to evolve the ERM program even more. [29:33] Michael will host another session that day with his SERMC colleague Denise Sobczak, “Pre-Mortem or Post-Mortem. If You Were a Patient, Which Would You Choose?” on scenario planning to weed out risks by thinking of everything that might go wrong before it does. [31:11] Michael calls having a Pre-Mortem a great tool. It's efficient and not expensive to run. It doesn't take much time. It's one of the biggest bang-for-the-buck scenario approaches for risk management. [31:22] At the ERM Conference 2023, Denise co-presented on the scenario planning sessions. You are in for quality discussions at the RIMS ERM Conference 2024, for all sessions. Michael's insight will be invaluable. [32:02] Justin tells Michael it has been such a pleasure to have him here on RIMScast! Justin will update this episode's show notes with the links to Michael's two papers coming in the Fall. He looks forward to seeing Michael on November 18th and 19th. [32:19] Justin thanks Michael for being such a valuable contributor to the SERMC at RIMS. Michael says he learns something new every time he gets together with the council. [32:42] Special thanks again to Michael Zuraw for joining us here on RIMScast. Michael has two RIMS reports that will be published on the Risk Knowledge page of RIMS.org in the next couple of weeks. Check back then on this episode's show notes for the updated links. [33:03] Michael will be presenting or co-presenting three sessions at the RIMS ERM Conference 2024 on November 18th, starting in the morning with “Dancing with Uncertainty,” and then in the afternoon with “The Illusion of Insight: Why Risk Interviews Fail to Deliver.” [33:24] Michael will help close out the day with “Pre-Mortem or Post-Mortem. If You Were a Patient, Which Would You Choose?” [33:31] There is also a link in this interview's show notes to Michael's ERM Q&A based on his 2019 win of the ERM Award of Distinction.

In this episode we speak to Mary Rose Gunn, Founder and CEO of The Fore, about why small charitable organisations are so valuable and how to support them to thrive. Including:How did The Fore come about, and what does the organisation exist to do?Is there too much competition and not enough collaboration in the charity sector? Why is this?How can we design more collaborative approaches? What kinds of resources and infrastructure will this require?How can philanthropic funders collaborate with the public sector more effectively?Do small charities have unique value (i.e. compared to larger ones?)Is one of the biggest barriers to philanthropic funders supporting small charities simply finding them in the first place? What can we do to overcome this barrierWhy is core cost funding so important for small charities and civil society organisations?What do small charities tend to use the money from core funding for?Should all small charities be aiming to grow and achieve scale, or is this not always the right goal? How can an organisation know?How important is resilience for small charities? What does this mean in practice?How big a challenge currently is burnout for leaders of small charities?What is required to make core cost funding work from the funder's point of view?Is part of the problem with the “overhead myth” that donors want some measure of the effectiveness of their giving, and in the absence of compelling evidence they are forced to rely on unhelpful financial measures like overhead ratios? What can we do to provide them with better metrics? What challenges do current grant application processes present for charities?Does this particularly disadvantage smaller organisations?When making relatively small grants, how do you maximise their impact?What additional support beyond just the money do small charities need?

Episode 159: Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation BasicsFuture Dr. Ameri explains how transcranial magnetic stimulation can be useful in the treatment of certain mental conditions.  Written by Omeed Ameri, MS-IV, Western University of Health Sciences, College of Osteopathic Medicine of the Pacific. Editing by Hector Arreaza, MD.You are listening to Rio Bravo qWeek Podcast, your weekly dose of knowledge brought to you by the Rio Bravo Family Medicine Residency Program from Bakersfield, California, a UCLA-affiliated program sponsored by Clinica Sierra Vista, Let Us Be Your Healthcare Home. This podcast was created for educational purposes only. Visit your primary care provider for additional medical advice.Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS)TMS is a non-invasive procedure that uses magnetic fields to stimulate nerve cells in the brain to improve symptoms of depression and Obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD). TMS uses the principles of electromagnetic inductions as described by Faraday's Law. When an electric current passes through the TMS coil, it creates a rapidly charging magnetic field, which passes unimpeded through the scalp and skull, inducing a secondary current in neural tissues of the brain, causing depolarization of neuronal membranes in targeted brain regions, mainly in the superficial layers of the cortex 1.5 to 2.5 cm beneath the coil.How it works.Depending on the frequency and pattern of magnetic pulses, TMS can either increase or decrease cortical excitability. High-frequency TMS (Generally > 1 Hz) is associated with increased cortical excitability and is often used for depression treatment. In contrast, low-frequency TMS (< 1 Hz) is typically used for anxiety and pain.This stimulation alters neurotransmitter release such as dopamine, serotonin, and norepinephrine. The repeated stimulation over sessions promotes synaptic plasticity, leading to more lasting changes in brain activity patterns associated with improved clinical outcomes. This is thought to have cascading effects throughout brain networks, and modulate dysfunctional circuits implicated in depression and restoring normal function. Effectiveness.The effectiveness of TMS can vary widely between individuals due to differences in anatomy, age, and specific conditions being treated. As such, ongoing research into how to personalize and optimize TMS parameters is ongoing. Research supporting the use of TMS in treatment-resistant depression.Research into the effectiveness of TMS and other therapy modalities targeting Treatment-Resistant Depression has been an ongoing effort for many years. In 2009, the American Academy of Family Physicians published Dr. Little's article titled “Treatment-Resistant Depression,” which noted that there was little evidence that TMS could significantly treat patients with treatment-resistant depression. Since that time, the American Journal of Psychiatry published a groundbreaking study in 2020, led by Dr. Cole, which explores the effectiveness of a novel treatment for treatment-resistant depression. This trial, known as Stanford Accelerated Intelligent Neuromodulation Therapy or SAINT, which demonstrates promising results in combating depression where traditional methods have failed. It was an open-label study that provides a new perspective on depression treatment, emphasizing rapid and targeted intervention. Twenty-two participants received 50 intermittent theta burst stimulation (iTBS), which is a more recent protocol for TMS treatment, over the course of five days. Each session included 1,800 pulses per session, with a 50-minute intersession interval, ten times a day. As a result of this intensive regimen, one participant withdrew from treatment, and 19 of the remaining 21 met remission criteria, with a score of less than 11 on the Montgomery-Asberg Depression Rating Scale. There were no serious adverse events reported, the participant who withdrew did so due to anxiety. Side effects included fatigue and some discomfort. 70% of participants continued to meet response criteria one-month post-treatment.TMS application for patients with OCD. Studies have shown promising results for the treatment of OCD with TMS. Typically, OCD is difficult to manage and requires the highest doses of SSRIs. In 2019, The American Journal of Psychiatry published Dr. Carmi's Article titled: “Efficacy and Safety of Deep Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation for Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder: A Prospective Multicenter Randomized Double-Blind Placebo-Controlled Trial”, which presents a comprehensive study on the effectiveness of dTMS in treating OCD. This multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial involved 99 OCD patients across 11 centers, who were treated with either high-frequency dTMS or sham dTMS, and focused on changes in the Yale-Brown Obsessive Compulsive Scale (YBOCS) scores.The treatment phase extended to 6 weeks with a total of 29 treatment sessions, following a 3-week screening phase and a 4-week follow-up phase. Patients were aged 22-68, with YBOCS scores greater than or equal to 20. At the start of the study, patients were already on a maintenance treatment with therapeutic dosages of SSRIs, or previously failed an SSRI and were currently being treated with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. The results revealed that dTMS treatment participants showed a significantly greater reduction in YBOCS score compared to sham treatment (6.0 points vs. 3.3 points). The most frequent adverse effect was headaches. There was one incident of severe suicide ideation. On investigation, it was revealed that the suicide ideation preceded the treatment and required hospitalization for the patient. TMS therapy has shown promising results in treating both treatment-resistant depression and OCD. More research is required to assess the long-term viability of the treatment modality, and which treatment regimens have the greatest efficacy for various psychiatric disorders. I hope our listeners will keep TMS in mind when confronted with treatment-resistant depression and OCD.___________________Conclusion: Now we conclude episode number 159, “Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation,” also known as TMS. We learned from future Dr. Ameri that TMS has proven to be an effective option for treatment-resistant depression and Obsessive-compulsive disorder. When medications and therapy are not enough, you may consider this therapy for your patients. This week we thank Hector Arreaza and Omeed Ameri.

This is the album that turned heavy metal into pop, or started the hair metal genre of the 80's.  Slippery When Wet was the third studio album by Bon Jovi, and would be their best selling album to date.The band was David Bryan on keyboards, Tico Torres on percussion, Alec John Such on bass, Richie Sambora on guitar, and Jon Bon Jovi on lead vocals and rhythm guitar.Bon Jovi deliberately targeted a mainstream audience with this album.  They wrote 30 songs and auditioned them to teenagers in New York and New Jersey.  The album's songs were then ordered based on the opinions of this teenaged focus group.The band collaborated with Desmond Child, a hall of fame songwriter who wrote songs like "I Was Made for Loving You" by Kiss and Joan Jett's "I Hate Myself for Loving You."  Slippery When Wet would be the top selling album of 1987, and would go 12x platinum.  It would also make Bon Jovi the first glam rock band to have two number 1 songs on the Billboard Hot 100 with "You Give Love a Bad Name" and "Livin' on a Prayer."Bon Jovi - the band, and Jon Bon Jovi as a soloist - would never leave the rock pantheon A-list after this album.   Raise Your HandsJon Bon Jovi and Richie Sambora wrote this one.  It was the B-side to "You Give Love a Bad Name," and was not released as a single.  If it sounds familiar you might be remembering it from a scene in the Mel Brooks film "Spaceballs."You Give Love a Bad NameThis is the first single from the album and would hit number one on the Billboard Hot 100 in November 1986.  Child, Bon Jovi, and Sambora re-wrote the song which started as a song for Bonnie Tyler called "If You Were a Woman (And I was a Man)"  The video was directed by Wayne Isham, who was also directing videos for Motley Crue at the same time.  Motley Crue felt betrayed that Wayne would direct a Bon Jovi video, since they were competing with each other at the time.I'd Die for YouThis song is a deeper cut with keyboard work reminiscent of the song "Runaway" from their first album.  Wanted Dead of AliveThis track hit number 7 on the Billboard Hot 100, and uses old west imagery to describe the lonely life of a rock star.  Bon Jovi and Sambora would perform an acoustic version of this tune on the 1989 MTV Video Music Awards, and would inspire the network to create their "MTV Unplugged" series.   ENTERTAINMENT TRACK:Glory of Love by Peter Cetera (from the motion picture The Karate Kid part II)This solo song from Chicago front man Peter Cetera was on the charts after being featured in the 1986 summer sequel starring Ralph Macchio and Pat Morita. STAFF PICKS:Wild, Wild Life by Talking HeadsWayne leads off the staff picks with a critically acclaimed song from the Talking Heads album, "True Stories."  The song was featured in the film "True Stories," a satirical comedy directed by David Byrne, front man for the Talking Heads.  This was the third and last top 40 hit the band would create.Higher Love by Steve WinwoodBrian's staff pick is Winwood's first number 1 hit in the United States.  Will Jennings wrote the lyrics, inspired by his experience with church in the deep South.  Chaka Khan provides the backing vocals, enhancing the gospel feel of the song - a modern day hymn.Sweet Freedom by Michael McDonaldRob's staff pick was featured in the buddy cop movie "Running Scared," starring Billy Crystal and Gregory Hines.  This was the last top 10 hit to date for McDonald.  In addition to his solo work, McDonald has worked with many musicians including Steely Dan, Kenny Loggins, Christopher Cross, and most famously as lead vocalist for the Doobie Brothers, with which he is touring today.Venus by BananaramaBruce finishes the staff picks with a number 7 hit from an English pop group formed by the trio of Sara Dallin, Siobhan Fahey, and Keren Woodward.  The original was released in 1969 by Netherlands group Shocking Blue.  Bananarama began covering this song when they first formed in 1980, but didn't release the single until they had recorded original songs so they would be taken seriously as musicians. COMEDY TRACK:Big Fat Blonde by The RainmakersThe Rainmakers released their debut album in 1986.  One of their fans was horror novelist Stephen King, who quoted the band's lyrics in some of his novels.

It was the final studio album required to fulfill her contract with Pete Waterman Limited (PWL), being released by the record label in the United Kingdom on 14 October 1991. Mushroom Records distributed the album in Australia on 25 November 1991. After Matt Aitken left the trio Stock Aitken Waterman (SAW) in early 1991, the remaining producers wanted to make another album with Minogue, although it was not a contractual obligation for her. Mike Stock and Pete Waterman agreed to share their songwriting credits with Minogue for the first time on six tracks. They spent months recording at PWL Studios, more time than any of her previous studio albums.Musically, Let's Get to It varies in sound, with it including hip hop, new jack swing, house and dance-pop genres. Music critics provided mixed reviews, recognising Minogue's creative control, and her provocative image despite them being ambivalent towards the production. The album is one of Minogue's least successful studio albums to date, missing the top 10 in both her native Australia and the UK. Nonetheless, it has since been certified gold in Australia by the Australian Recording Industry Association (ARIA).Four singles were released from Let's Get to It, including UK top 10 entries "If You Were with Me Now" and "Give Me Just a Little More Time". The other singles, "Word Is Out" and "Finer Feelings", attained top 20 positions in the UK. Minogue further promoted the album with her Let's Get to It Tour, which traveled throughout Europe in October and November of 1991. It was re-issued in the UK for the first time in 2015.

Meet Today's Guest: Regina YoungRegina Young has always charted her own journey in life and believed standing in your own power makes you unstoppable. Regina has a degree from the Art and Fashion Institute of Philadelphia in Fashion. She is a podcaster, plus-size model, personal branding image consultant, and speaker. She can be heard on Teatime Midlife Edition podcast, a weekly teacup conversation about midlife victories, struggles, and how you're going to live your best life now in the community. Please Tell Our Audience About Your JourneyAt one point, I had to make a bunch of choices. I could do the nine to five, or I could live my dream and just take chances. I chose to do both. I didn't even choose to do one or the other. I said I can have it all, why not? I started modeling or going on the journey for modeling. That was one thing. And then at one point, I became a Ford Model. That was one of the journeys that I took. Another journey that I took was around podcasting. I got to the place in mid-life where I was like, is this all there is? Is there anything else? Or can I create something? The pandemic opened up an opportunity to be heard and seen in mid-life. And that's how I started with the podcast, Teatime Midlife Edition. Can You Tell Us What Teatime Midlife Edition Podcast Is All About?It is for women in midlife. Sometimes women can be alone in midlife. It shouldn't be that way. Women should be in a community in mid-life, and it is a teacup conversation. It takes about 20 minutes, once a week, for the first season. The second season may look a little different, but we talk about the struggles, the victories, all kinds of things. In a community, supporting one another is a key to feeling fulfilled, and having a good sense of life. Feeling like life is working, because you have someone you can rely on and you could share your victories with. That's what it's about. How Do You Overcome the Challenges of Having Difficult Conversations Over the Airwaves?If I want to make a difference in the world, I have to be the example. If I'm going to be vulnerable, then I assert that other people will be vulnerable. I can't ask one to do more than what I'm willing to do. Unfortunately, my father just passed away, and I shared the different phases of grief. Being open and honest like that. I'm not under the illusion that I'm the only one going through it. I feel like if I make it okay, for me to share myself, maybe you'll be okay with sharing yourself. What Can You Say to the Mid-Lifers Listening Right Now to Pour Into Them?I do stand in the quote, if it's to be it's up to me. You're going to have to participate in your own rescue. That is the real deal. Believe that this too shall pass. Those are the three things that I use to move forward in any challenging situation. It's important to be in a community. You have someone who's the support that can help prop you up if necessary. Most of all, someone to hold your hand or comfort you when it's down and say it's going to be okay. In a community, you will get everything you need, because there's someone who's already been through it, going through it, or missed it. But the reality is you'll get everything you need in a community. I Heard You Have Some Great Things Coming up That You're Putting Together. Could You Tell Us a Little Bit About That?I am starting a curriculum for women in mid-life. It's helpful in midlife because there's a point where you get into a fashion rut. There's an opportunity to rebrand yourself or reinvent yourself in your image. And my course is called Model Perfect Woman. Every woman is model-perfect with style. I want to reach a lot of women, where they get to reinvent themselves and see their image newly. It's not about trying something old and making it new. It's about authentically being yourself. Having your image represent you from your core authentic self. You've always wanted to do it. You just couldn't see how. People get stuck in past images. They get into a fashion rut. They loved themselves 10 years ago, and they looked fabulous. Everything was perfect. And now look, it's mid-life and they don't know what's next and how to bridge from 10 years ago. If You Were to Describe Yourself With Three Different Words, What Would Those Three Words Be?Persisted. Fun. Loving. What Is Your All-Time Favorite Business Look?I love a simple blazer jacket and a simple dress. It could be zip up the back, knee-length. I do like a little black dress or a patterned dress with a jacket. That's a simple business look. What Is Your All-Time Favorite Business Book?"Who Moved My Cheese?" By Dr. Spencer Johnson and "Think and Grow Rich" by Napoleon Hill.

Episode eighty-four of A History of Rock Music in Five Hundred Songs looks at "Shakin' All Over" by Johnny Kidd and the Pirates, and how the first great British R&B band interacted with the entertainment industry. Click the full post to read liner notes, links to more information, and a transcript of the episode. Patreon backers also have a fifteen-minute bonus episode, on "Under Your Spell Again" by Buck Owens. Tilt Araiza has assisted invaluably by doing a first-pass edit, and will hopefully be doing so from now on. Check out Tilt's irregular podcasts at http://www.podnose.com/jaffa-cakes-for-proust and http://sitcomclub.com/ ----more---- Resources   As usual, I have put together a Mixcloud mix with every song excerpted in this podcast. Only one biography of Kidd has been written, and that's been out of print for nearly a quarter of a century and goes for ridiculous prices. Luckily Adie Barrett's site http://www.johnnykidd.co.uk/ is everything a fan-site should be, and has a detailed biographical section which I used for the broad-strokes outline. Clem Cattini: My Life, Through the Eye of a Tornado is somewhere between authorised biography and autobiography. It's not the best-written book ever, but it contains a lot of information about Clem's life. Spike & Co by Graham McCann gives a very full account of Associated London Scripts. Pete Frame's The Restless Generation is the best book available looking at British 50s rock and roll from a historical perspective. Be warned, though -- his jokey and irreverent style can, when dealing with people like Larry Parnes (who was gay and Jewish) very occasionally tip over into reinforcing homophobic and anti-semitic stereotypes for an easy laugh. Billy Bragg's Roots, Radicals, and Rockers: How Skiffle Changed the World is one of the best books I've read on music at all, and gives far more detail about the historical background.

Transcript As we get more into this story, we're going to see a lot more British acts becoming part of it. We've already looked at Lonnie Donegan, Cliff Richard, Tommy Steele, and Vince Taylor, but without spoiling anything I think most of you can guess that over the next year or so we're going to see a few guitar bands from the UK enter the narrative. Today we're going to look at one of the most important British bands of the early sixties -- a band who are now mostly known for one hit and a gimmick, but who made a massive contribution to the sound of rock music. We're going to look at Johnny Kidd and the Pirates: [Excerpt: Johnny Kidd and the Pirates, "Shakin' All Over"] Our story starts during the skiffle boom of 1957. If you don't remember the episodes we did on skiffle and early British rock and roll, it was a musical craze that swept Britain after Lonnie Donegan's surprise hit with "Rock Island Line". For about eighteen months, nearly every teenage boy in Britain was in a group playing a weird mix of Leadbelly and Woody Guthrie songs, old folk tunes, and music-hall numbers, with a lineup usually consisting of guitar, banjo, someone using a washboard as percussion, and a homemade double bass made out of a teachest, a broom handle, and a single string. The skiffle craze died away as quickly as it started out, but it left a legacy -- thousands of young kids who'd learned at least three chords, who'd performed in public, and who knew that it was possible to make music without having gone through the homogenising star-making process. That would have repercussions throughout the length of this story, and to this day. But while almost everyone in a skiffle group was a kid, not everyone was. Obviously the big stars of the genre -- Lonnie Donegan, Chas McDevitt, the Vipers -- were all in their twenties when they became famous, and so were some of the amateurs who tried to jump on the bandwagon. In particular, there was Fred Heath. Heath was twenty-one when skiffle hit, and was already married -- while twenty-one might seem young now, at the time, it was an age when people were meant to have settled down and found a career. But Heath wasn't the career sort. There were rumours about him which attest to the kind of person he was perceived as being -- that he was a bookie's runner, that he'd not been drafted because he was thought to be completely impossible to discipline, that he had been working as a painter in a warehouse and urinated on the warehouse floor from the scaffolding he was on -- and he was clearly not someone who was *ever* going to settle down. The first skiffle band Heath formed was called Bats Heath and the Vampires, and featured Heath on vocals and rhythm guitar, Brian Englund on banjo, Frank Rouledge on lead guitar, and Clive Lazell on washboard. The group went through a variety of names, at one point naming themselves the Frantic Four in what seems to have been an attempt to confuse people into thinking they were seeing Don Lang's Frantic Five, the group who often appeared on Six-Five Special: [Excerpt: Don Lang and his Frantic Five, "Six-Five Hand Jivel"] The group went through the standard lineup and name changes that almost every amateur group went through, and they ended up as a five-piece group called the Five Nutters. And it was as the Five Nutters that they made their first attempts at becoming stars, when they auditioned for Carroll Levis. Levis was one of the most important people in showbusiness in the UK at this time. He'd just started a TV series, but for years before that his show had been on Radio Luxembourg, which was for many teenagers in the UK the most important radio station in the world. At the time, the BBC had a legal monopoly on radio broadcasting in the UK, but they had a couple of problems when it came to attracting a teenage audience. The first was that they had to provide entertainment for *everyone*, and so they couldn't play much music that only appealed to teenagers but was detested by adults. But there was a much bigger problem for the BBC when it came to recorded music. In the 1950s, the BBC ran three national radio stations -- the Light Programme, the Home Service, and the Third Programme -- along with one national TV channel. The Musicians' Union were worried that playing recorded music on these would lead to their members losing work, and so there was an agreement called "needletime", which allowed the BBC to use recorded music for twenty-two hours a week, total, across all three radio stations, plus another three hours for the TV. That had to cover every style of music from Little Richard through to Doris Day through to Beethoven. The rest of the time, if they had music, it had to be performed by live musicians, and so you'd be more likely to hear "Rock Around the Clock" as performed by the Northern Dance Orchestra than Bill Haley's version, and much of the BBC's youth programming had middle-aged British session musicians trying to replicate the sound of American records and failing miserably. But Luxembourg didn't have a needle-time rule, and so a commercial English-language station had been set up there, using transmitters powerful enough to reach most of Britain and Ireland. The station was owned and run in Britain, and most of the shows were recorded in London by British DJs like Brian Matthew, Jimmy Savile, and Alan Freeman, although there were also recordings of Alan Freed's show broadcast on it. The shows were mostly sponsored by record companies, who would make the DJs play just half of the record, so they could promote more songs in their twenty-minute slot, and this was the main way that any teenager in Britain would actually be able to hear rock and roll music. Oddly, even though he spent many years on Radio Luxembourg, Levis' show, which had originally been on the BBC before the War, was not a music show, but a talent show. Whether on his original BBC radio show, the Radio Luxembourg one, or his new TV show, the format was the same. He would alternate weeks between broadcasting and talent scouting. In talent scouting weeks he would go to a different city each week, where for five nights in a row he would put on talent shows featuring up to twenty different local amateur acts doing their party pieces -- without payment, of course, just for the exposure. At the end of the show, the audience would get a chance to clap for each act, and the act that got the loudest applause would go through to a final on the Saturday night. This of course meant that acts that wanted to win would get a lot of their friends and family to come along and cheer for them. The Saturday night would then have the winning acts -- which is to say, those who brought along the most paying customers -- compete against each other. The most popular of *those* acts would then get to appear on Levis' TV show the next week. It was, as you can imagine, an extremely lucrative business. When the Five Nutters appeared on Levis' Discoveries show, they were fairly sure that the audience clapped loudest for them, but they came third. Being the type of person he was, Fred Heath didn't take this lying down, and remonstrated with Levis, who eventually promised to get the Nutters some better gigs, one suspects just to shut Heath up. As a result of Levis putting in a good word for them, they got a few appearances at places like the 2Is, and made an appearance on the BBC's one concession to youth culture on the radio -- a new show called Saturday Skiffle Club. Around this time, the Five Nutters also recorded a demo disc. The first side was a skiffled-up version of "Shake, Rattle and Roll", with some extremely good jazzy lead guitar: [Excerpt: Fred Heath and the Five Nutters, "Shake, Rattle, and Roll"] I've heard quite a few records of skiffle groups, mostly by professionals, and it's clear that the Five Nutters were far more musical, and far more interesting, than most of them, even despite the audible sloppiness here. The point of skiffle was meant to be that it was do-it-yourself music that required no particular level of skill -- but in this case the Nutters' guitarist Frank Rouledge was clearly quite a bit more proficient than the run-of-the-mill skiffle guitarist. What was even more interesting about that recording, though, was the B-side, which was a song written by the group. It seems to have been mostly written by Heath, and it's called "Blood-Red Beauty" because Heath's wife was a redhead: [Excerpt: Fred Heath and the Five Nutters, "Blood Red Beauty"] The song itself is fairly unexceptional -- it's a standard Hank Williams style hillbilly boogie -- but at this time there was still in Britain a fairly hard and fast rule which had performers and songwriters as two distinct things. There were a handful of British rock musicians who were attempting to write their own material -- most prominently Billy Fury, a Larry Parnes artist who I'm afraid we don't have space for in the podcast, but who was one of the most interesting of the late-fifties British acts -- but in general, there was a fairly strict demarcation. It was very unusual for a British performer to also be trying to write songs. The Nutters split up shortly after their Saturday Skiffle Club appearance, and Heath formed various other groups called things like The Fabulous Freddie Heath Band and The Fred, Mike & Tom Show, before going back to the old name, with a new lineup of Freddie Heath and the Nutters consisting of himself on vocals, Mike West and Tom Brown -- who had been the Mike and Tom in The Fred, Mike, & Tom Show, on backing vocals, Tony Doherty on rhythm guitar, Ken McKay on drums, Johnny Gordon on bass, and on lead guitar Alan Caddy, a man who was known by the nickname "tea", which was partly a pun on his name, partly a reference to his drinking copious amounts of tea, and partly Cockney rhyming slang -- tea-leaf for thief -- as he was known for stealing cars. The Nutters got a new agent, Don Toy, and manager, Guy Robinson, but Heath seemed mostly to want to be a songwriter rather than a singer at this point. He was looking to place his songs with other artists, and in early 1959, he did. He wrote a song called "Please Don't Touch", and managed to get it placed with a vocal group called the Bachelors -- not the more famous group of that name, but a minor group who recorded for Parlophone, a subsidiary of EMI run by a young producer named George Martin. "Please Don't Touch" came out as the B-side of a Bachelors record: [Excerpt: The Bachelors, "Please Don't Touch"] One notable thing about the songwriting credit -- while most sources say Fred Heath wrote the song by himself, he gave Guy Robinson a co-writing credit on this and many of his future songs. This was partly because it was fairly standard at the time for managers to cut themselves in on their artists' credits, but also because that way the credit could read Heath Robinson -- Heath Robinson was a famous British cartoonist who was notable for drawing impossibly complicated inventions, and whose name had become part of the British language -- for American listeners, imagine that the song was credited to Rube Goldberg, and you'll have the idea. At this point, the Nutters had become quite a professional organisation, and so it was unsurprising that after "Please Don't Touch" brought Fred Heath to the attention of EMI, a different EMI imprint, HMV, signed them up. Much of the early success of the Nutters, and this professionalism, seems to be down to Don Toy, who seems to have been a remarkably multi-talented individual. As well as being an agent who had contracts with many London venues to provide them with bands, he was also an electrical engineer specialising in sound equipment. He built a two-hundred watt bass amp for the group, at a time when almost every band just put their bass guitar through a normal guitar amp, and twenty-five watts was considered quite loud. He also built a portable tape echo device that could be used on stage to make Heath's voice sound like it would on the records. Heath later bought the first Copicat echo unit to be made -- this was a mass-produced device that would be used by a lot of British bands in the early sixties, and Heath's had serial number 0001 -- but before that became available, he used Toy's device, which may well have been the very first on-stage echo device in the UK. On top of that, Toy has also claimed that most of the songs credited to Heath and Robinson were also co-written by him, but he left his name off because the credit looked better without it. And whether or not that's true, he was also the drummer on this first session -- Ken McKay, the Nutters' drummer, was a bit unsteady in his tempo, and Toy was a decent player and took over from him when in April 1959, Fred Heath and the Nutters went into Abbey Road Studio 2, to record their own version of "Please Don't Touch". This was ostensibly produced by HMV producer Walter Ridley, but Ridley actually left rock and roll records to his engineer, Peter Sullivan: [Excerpt: Johnny Kidd and the Pirates, "Please Don't Touch"] It was only when the session was over that they saw the paperwork for it. Fred Heath was the only member of the Nutters to be signed to EMI, with the rest of the group being contracted as session musicians, but that was absolutely normal for the time period -- Tommy Steele's Steelmen and Cliff Richard's Drifters hadn't been signed as artists either. What they were concerned about was the band name on the paperwork -- it didn't say Fred Heath and the Nutters, but Johnny Kidd and the Pirates. They were told that that was going to be their new name. They never did find out who it was who had decided on this for them, but from now on Fred Heath was Johnny Kidd. The record was promoted on Radio Luxembourg, and everyone thought it was going to go to number one. Unfortunately, strike action prevented that, and the record was only a moderate chart success -- the highest position it hit in any of the UK charts at the time was number twenty on the Melody Maker chart. But that didn't stop it from becoming an acknowledged classic of British rock and roll. It was so popular that it actually saw an American cover version, which was something that almost never happened with British songs, though Chico Holliday's version was unsuccessful: [Excerpt: Chico Holliday, "Please Don't Touch"] It remained such a fond memory for British rockers that in 1980 the heavy metal groups Motorhead and Girlschool recorded it as the supergroup HeadGirl, and it became the biggest hit either group ever had, reaching number five in the British charts: [Excerpt: Headgirl, "Please Don't Touch"] But while "Please Don't Touch" was one of the very few good rock and roll records made in Britain, it wasn't the one for which Johnny Kidd and the Pirates would be remembered. It was, though, enough to make them a big act. They toured the country on a bill compered by Liverpool comedian Jimmy Tarbuck, and they made several appearances on Saturday Club, which had now dropped the "skiffle" name and was the only place anyone could hear rock and roll on BBC radio. Of course, the British record industry having the immense sense of potential it did, HMV immediately capitalised on the success of Johnny Kidd and the Pirates doing a great group performance of an original rock and roll number, by releasing as a follow-up single, a version of the old standard "If You Were the Only Girl in the World and I Were the Only Boy" by Johnny without the Pirates, but with chorus and orchestra conducted by Ivor Raymonde: [Excerpt: Johnny Kidd, "If You Were The Only Girl in the World"] For some reason -- I can't imagine why -- that didn't chart. One suspects that young Lemmy wasn't quite as fond of that one as "Please Don't Touch". The B-side was a quite good rocker, with some nice guitar work from the session guitarist Bert Weedon, but no-one bothered to buy the record at the time, so they didn't turn it over to hear the other side. The follow-up was better -- a reworking of Marv Johnson's "You've Got What it Takes", one of the hits that Berry Gordy had been writing and producing for Johnson. Johnson's version made the top five in the UK, but the Pirates' version still made the top thirty. But by this time there had been some changes. The first change that was made was that the Pirates changed manager -- while Robinson would continue getting songwriting credits, the group were now managed through Associated London Scripts, by Stan "Scruffy" Dale. Associated London Scripts was, as the name suggests, primarily a company that produced scripts. It was started as a writers' co-operative, and in its early days it was made up of seven people. There was Frankie Howerd, one of the most popular stand-up comedians of the time, who was always looking for new material; Spike Milligan, the writer and one of the stars of the Goon Show, the most important surreal comedy of the fifties; Eric Sykes, who was a writer-performer who was involved in almost every important comedy programme of the decade, including co-writing many Goon episodes with Milligan, before becoming a TV star himself; Ray Galton and Alan Simpson, who wrote the most important *sitcom* of the fifties and early sixties, Hancock's Half Hour; and Scruffy Dale, who was Howerd and Sykes' manager and was supposed to take care of the business stuff. In fact, though, most of the business was actually taken care of by the seventh person and only woman, Beryl Vertue, who was taken on as the secretary on the basis of an interview that mostly asked about her tea-making skills, but soon found herself doing almost everything -- the men in the office got so used to asking her "Could you make the tea, Beryl?", "Could you type up this script, Beryl?" that they just started asking her things like "Could you renegotiate our contract with the BBC, Beryl?" She eventually became one of the most important women in the TV industry, with her most recent prominent credit being as executive producer on the BBC's Sherlock up until 2017, more than sixty years after she joined the business. Vertue did all the work to keep the company running -- a company which grew to about thirty writers, and between the early fifties and mid sixties, as well as Hancock's Half Hour and the Goons, its writers created Sykes, Beyond Our Ken, Round the Horne, Steptoe and Son, The Bedsitting Room, the Running, Jumping, Standing Still Film, Til Death Us Do Part, Citizen James, and the Daleks. That's a list off the top of my head -- it would actually be easier to list memorable British comedy programmes and films of the fifties and early sixties that *didn't* have a script from one of ALS' writers. And while Vertue was keeping Marty Feldman, John Junkin, Barry Took, Johnny Speight, John Antrobus and all the rest of these new writers in work, Scruffy Dale was trying to create a career in pop management. As several people associated with ALS had made records with George Martin at Parlophone, he had an in there, and some of the few pop successes that Martin had in the fifties were producing acts managed by Dale through ALS, like the Vipers Skiffle Group: [Excerpt: The Vipers Skiffle Group, "Don't You Rock Me, Daddy-O"] and a young performer named Jim Smith, who wanted to be a comedian and actor, but who Dale renamed after himself, and who had a string of hits as Jim Dale: [Excerpt: Jim Dale, "Be My Girl"] Jim Dale eventually did become a film and TV star, starting with presenting Six-Five Special, and is now best known for having starred in many of the Carry On films and narrating the Harry Potter audiobooks, but at the time he was still a pop star. Jim Dale and the Vipers were the two professional acts headlining an otherwise-amateur tour that Scruffy Dale put together that was very much like Carroll Levis' Discoveries show, except without the need to even give the winners a slot on the TV every other week. This tour was supposed to be a hunt for the country's best skiffle group, and there was going to be a grand national final, and the winner of *that* would go on TV. Except they just kept dragging the tour out for eighteen months, until the skiffle fad was completely over and no-one cared, so there never was a national final. And in the meantime the Vipers had to sit through twenty groups of spotty kids a night, all playing "Don't You Rock Me Daddy-O", and then go out and play it themselves, every night for eighteen months. Scruffy Dale was unscrupulous in other ways as well, and not long after he'd taken on the Pirates' management he was sacked from ALS. Spike Milligan had never liked Dale -- when told that Dale had lost a testicle in the war, he'd merely replied "I hope he dropped it on Dresden" -- but Frankie Howerd and Eric Sykes had always been impressed with his ability to negotiate deals. But then Frankie Howerd found out that he'd missed out on lucrative opportunities because Dale had shoved letters in his coat pocket and forgotten about them for a fortnight. He started investigating a few more things, and it turned out that Dale had been siphoning money from Sykes and Howerd's personal bank accounts into his own, having explained to their bank manager that it would just be resting in his account for them, because they were showbiz people who would spend it all too fast, so he was looking after them. And he'd also been doing other bits of creative accounting -- every success his musical acts had was marked down as something he'd done independently, and all the profits went to him, while all the unsuccessful ventures were marked down as being ALS projects, and their losses charged to the company. So neither Dale nor the Pirates were with Associated London Scripts very long. But Dale made one very important change -- he and Don Toy decided between them that most of the Pirates had to go. There were six backing musicians in the group if you counted the two backing vocalists, who all needed paying, and only one could read music -- they weren't professional enough to make a career in the music business. So all of the Pirates except Alan Caddy were sacked. Mike West and Tony Doherty formed another band, Robby Hood and His Merry Men, whose first single was written by Kidd (though it's rare enough I've not been able to find a copy anywhere online). The new backing group was going to be a trio, modelled on Johnny Burnette's Rock and Roll Trio -- just one guitar, bass, and drums. They had Caddy on lead guitar, Clem Cattini on drums, and Brian Gregg on bass. Cattini was regarded as by far the best rock drummer in Britain at the time. He'd played with Terry Dene's backing band the Dene Aces, and can be seen glumly backing Dene in the film The Golden Disc: [Excerpt: Terry Dene, "Candy Floss"] Gregg had joined Dene's band, and they'd both then moved on to be touring musicians for Larry Parnes, backing most of the acts on a tour featuring Gene Vincent and Eddie Cochran that we'll be looking at next week. They'd played with various of Parnes' acts for a while, but had then asked for more money, and he'd refused, so they'd quit working for Parnes and joined Vince Taylor and the Playboys. They'd only played with the Playboys a few weeks when they moved on to Chas McDevitt's group. For a brief time, McDevitt had been the biggest star in skiffle other than Lonnie Donegan, but he was firmly in the downward phase of his career at this point. McDevitt also owned a coffee bar, the Freight Train, named after his biggest hit, and most of the musicians in London would hang out there. And after Clem Cattini and Brian Gregg had joined the Pirates, it was at the Freight Train that the song for which the group would be remembered was written. They were going to go into the studio to record another song chosen by the record label -- a version of the old standard "Yes Sir, That's My Baby" -- because EMI had apparently not yet learned that if you had Johnny Kidd record old standards, no-one bought it, but if you had him record bluesy rock and roll you had a hit. But they'd been told they could write their own B-side, as they'd been able to on the last few singles. They were also allowed to bring in Joe Moretti to provide a second guitar -- Moretti, who had played the solo on "Brand New Cadillac", was an old friend of Clem Cattini's, and they thought he'd add something to the record, and also thought they'd be doing him a favour by letting him make a session fee -- he wasn't a regular session player. So they all got together in the Freight Train coffee bar, and wrote another Heath/Robinson number. They weren't going to do anything too original for a B-side, of course. They nicked a rhythm guitar part from "Linda Lu", a minor US hit that Lee Hazelwood had produced for a Chuck Berry soundalike named Ray Sharpe, and which was itself clearly lifted from “Speedoo” by the Cadillacs: [Excerpt: Ray Sharpe, "Linda Lu"] They may also have nicked Joe Moretti's lead guitar part as well, though there's more doubt about this. There's a Mickey and Sylvia record, "No Good Lover", which hadn't been released in the UK at the time, so it's hard to imagine how they could have heard it, but the lead guitar part they hit on was very, very similar -- maybe someone had played it on Radio Luxembourg: [Excerpt: Mickey and Sylvia, "No Good Lover"] They combined those musical ideas with a lyric that was partly a follow-on to the line in "Please Don't Touch" about shaking too much, and partly a slightly bowdlerised version of a saying that Kidd had -- when he saw a woman he found particularly attractive, he'd say "She gives me quivers in me membranes". As it was a B-side, the track they recorded only took two takes, plus a brief overdub for Moretti to add some guitar shimmers, created by him using a cigarette lighter as a slide: [Excerpt: Johnny Kidd and the Pirates, "Shakin' All Over"] The song was knocked off so quickly that they even kept in a mistake -- before the guitar solo, Clem Cattini was meant to play just a one-bar fill. Instead he played for longer, which was very unlike Cattini, who was normally a professional's professional. He asked for another take, but the producer just left it in, and that break going into the solo was one of the things that people latched on to: [Excerpt: Johnny Kidd and the Pirates, "Shakin' All Over"] Despite the track having been put together from pre-existing bits, it had a life and vitality to it that no other British record except "Brand New Cadillac" had had, and Kidd had the added bonus of actually being able to hold a tune, unlike Vince Taylor. The record company quickly realised that "Shakin' All Over" should be the record that they were pushing, and flipped the single. The Pirates appeared on Wham!, the latest Jack Good TV show, and immediately the record charted. It soon made number one, and became the first real proof to British listeners that British people could make rock and roll every bit as good as the Americans -- at this point, everyone still thought Vince Taylor was from America. It was possibly Jack Good who also made the big change to Johnny Kidd's appearance -- he had a slight cast in one eye that got worse as the day went on, with his eyelid drooping more and more. Someone -- probably Good -- suggested that he should make this problem into an advantage, by wearing an eyepatch. He did, and the Pirates got pirate costumes to wear on stage, while Kidd would frantically roam the stage swinging a cutlass around. At this point, stagecraft was something almost unknown to British rock performers, who rarely did more than wear a cleanish suit and say "thank you" after each song. The only other act that was anything like as theatrical was Screaming Lord Sutch and the Savages, a minor act who had ripped off Screamin' Jay Hawkins' act. The follow-up, "Restless", was very much "Shakin' All Over" part two, and made the top thirty. After that, sticking with the formula, they did a version of "Linda Lu", but that didn't make the top forty at all. Possibly the most interesting record they made at this point was a version of "I Just Want to Make Love to You", a song Willie Dixon had written for Muddy Waters: [Excerpt: Johnny Kidd and the Pirates, "I Just Want to Make Love to You"] The Pirates were increasingly starting to include blues and R&B songs in their set, and the British blues boom artists of the next few years would often refer to the Pirates as being the band that had inspired them. Clem Cattini still says that Johnny Kidd was the best British blues singer he ever heard. But as their singles were doing less and less well, the Pirates decided to jump ship. Colin Hicks, Tommy Steele's much less successful younger brother, had a backing band called the Cabin Boys, which Brian Gregg had been in before joining Terry Dene's band. Hicks had now started performing an act that was based on Kidd's, and for a tour of Italy, where he was quite popular, he wanted a new band -- he asked the Pirates if they would leave Kidd and become the latest lineup of Cabin Boys, and they left, taking their costumes with them. Clem Cattini now says that agreeing was the worst move he ever made, but they parted on good terms -- Kidd said "Alan, Brian and Clem left me to better themselves. How could I possibly begrudge them their opportunity?" We'll be picking up the story of Alan, Brian, and Clem in a few months' time, but in the meantime, Kidd picked up a new backing band, who had previously been performing as the Redcaps, backing a minor singer called Cuddly Dudley on his single "Sitting on a Train": [Excerpt: Cuddly Dudley and the Redcaps, "Sitting on a Train"] That new lineup of Pirates didn't last too long before the guitarist quit, due to ill health, but he was soon replaced by Mick Green, who is now regarded by many as one of the great British guitarists of all time, to the extent that Wilko Johnson, another British guitarist who came to prominence about fifteen years later, has said that he spent his entire career trying and failing to sound like MIck Green. In 1962 and 63 the group were playing clubs where they found a lot of new bands who they seemed to have things in common with. After playing the Cavern in Liverpool and a residency at the Star Club in Hamburg, they added Richie Barrett's "Some Other Guy" and Arthur Alexander's "A Shot of Rhythm and Blues" to their sets, two R&B numbers that were very popular among the Liverpool bands playing in Hamburg but otherwise almost unknown in the UK. Unfortunately, their version of "A Shot of Rhythm and Blues" didn't chart, and their record label declined to issue their version of "Some Other Guy" -- and then almost immediately the Liverpool group The Big Three released their version as a single, and it made the top forty. As the Pirates' R&B sound was unsuccessful -- no-one seemed to want British R&B, at all -- they decided to go the other way, and record a song written by their new manager, Gordon Mills (who would later become better known for managing Tom Jones and Englebert Humperdinck). "I'll Never Get Over You" was a very catchy, harmonised, song in the style of many of the new bands that were becoming popular, and it's an enjoyable record, but it's not really in the Pirates' style: [Excerpt: Johnny Kidd and the Pirates, "I'll Never Get Over You"] That made number four on the charts, but it would be Johnny Kidd and the Pirates' last major hit. They did have a minor hit with another song by Mills, "Hungry For Love", but a much better record, and a much better example of the Pirates' style, was an R&B single released by the Pirates without Kidd. The plan at the time was that they would be split into two acts in the same way as Cliff Richard and the Shadows -- Kidd would be a solo star, while the Pirates would release records of their own. The A-side of the Pirates' single was a fairly good version of the Willie Dixon song "My Babe", but to my ears the B-side is better -- it's a version of "Casting My Spell", a song originally by an obscure duo called the Johnson Brothers, but popularised by Johnny Otis. The Pirates' version is quite possibly the finest early British R&B record I've heard: [Excerpt: The Pirates, "Casting My Spell"] That didn't chart, and the plan to split the two acts failed. Neither act ever had another hit again, and eventually the classic Mick Green lineup of the Pirates split up -- Green left first, to join Billy J Kramer and the Dakotas, and the rest left one by one. In 1965, The Guess Who had a hit in the US with their cover version of "Shakin' All Over": [Excerpt: The Guess Who, "Shakin' All Over"] The Pirates were reduced to remaking their own old hit as "Shakin' All Over '65" in an attempt to piggyback on that cover version, but the new version, which was dominated by a Hammond organ part, didn't have any success. After the Pirates left Kidd, he got a new group, which he called the New Pirates. He continued making extremely good records on occasion, but had no success at all. Even though younger bands like the Rolling Stones and the Animals were making music very similar to his, he was regarded as an outdated novelty act, a relic of an earlier age from six years earlier. There was always the potential for him to have a comeback, but then in 1966 Kidd, who was never a very good driver and had been in a number of accidents, arrived late at a gig in Bolton. The manager refused to let him on stage because he'd arrived so late, so he drove off to find another gig. He'd been driving most of the day, and he crashed the car and died, as did one person in the vehicle he crashed into. His final single, "Send For That Girl", was released after his death. It's really a very good record, but at the time Kidd's fortunes were so low that even his death didn't make it chart: [Excerpt: Johnny Kidd and the New Pirates, "Send For That Girl"] Kidd was only thirty when he died, and already a has-been, but he left behind the most impressive body of work of any pre-Beatles British act. Various lineups of Pirates have occasionally played since -- including, at one point, Cattini and Gregg playing with Joe Moretti's son Joe Moretti Jr -- but none have ever captured that magic that gave millions of people quivers down the backbone and shakes in the kneebone.

Only one biography of Kidd has been written, and that’s been out of print for nearly a quarter of a century and goes for ridiculous prices. Luckily Adie Barrett’s site http://www.johnnykidd.co.uk/ is everything a fan-site should be, and has a detailed biographical section which I used for the broad-strokes outline. Clem Cattini: My Life, Through the Eye of a Tornado is somewhere between authorised biography and autobiography. It’s not the best-written book ever, but it contains a lot of information about Clem’s life. Spike & Co by Graham McCann gives a very full account of Associated London Scripts. Pete Frame’s The Restless Generation is the best book available looking at British 50s rock and roll from a historical perspective. Be warned, though — his jokey and irreverent style can, when dealing with people like Larry Parnes (who was gay and Jewish) very occasionally tip over into reinforcing homophobic and anti-semitic stereotypes for an easy laugh. Billy Bragg’s Roots, Radicals, and Rockers: How Skiffle Changed the World is one of the best books I’ve read on music at all, and gives far more detail about the historical background. And a fair chunk of the background information here also comes from the extended edition of Mark Lewisohn’s Tune In, which is essential reading for anyone who is interested in the Beatles, British post-war culture, and British post-war music.   Patreon This podcast is brought to you by the generosity of my backers on Patreon. Why not join them? Transcript As we get more into this story, we’re going to see a lot more British acts becoming part of it. We’ve already looked at Lonnie Donegan, Cliff Richard, Tommy Steele, and Vince Taylor, but without spoiling anything I think most of you can guess that over the next year or so we’re going to see a few guitar bands from the UK enter the narrative. Today we’re going to look at one of the most important British bands of the early sixties — a band who are now mostly known for one hit and a gimmick, but who made a massive contribution to the sound of rock music. We’re going to look at Johnny Kidd and the Pirates: [Excerpt: Johnny Kidd and the Pirates, “Shakin’ All Over”] Our story starts during the skiffle boom of 1957. If you don’t remember the episodes we did on skiffle and early British rock and roll, it was a musical craze that swept Britain after Lonnie Donegan’s surprise hit with “Rock Island Line”. For about eighteen months, nearly every teenage boy in Britain was in a group playing a weird mix of Leadbelly and Woody Guthrie songs, old folk tunes, and music-hall numbers, with a lineup usually consisting of guitar, banjo, someone using a washboard as percussion, and a homemade double bass made out of a teachest, a broom handle, and a single string. The skiffle craze died away as quickly as it started out, but it left a legacy — thousands of young kids who’d learned at least three chords, who’d performed in public, and who knew that it was possible to make music without having gone through the homogenising star-making process. That would have repercussions throughout the length of this story, and to this day. But while almost everyone in a skiffle group was a kid, not everyone was. Obviously the big stars of the genre — Lonnie Donegan, Chas McDevitt, the Vipers — were all in their twenties when they became famous, and so were some of the amateurs who tried to jump on the bandwagon. In particular, there was Fred Heath. Heath was twenty-one when skiffle hit, and was already married — while twenty-one might seem young now, at the time, it was an age when people were meant to have settled down and found a career. But Heath wasn’t the career sort. There were rumours about him which attest to the kind of person he was perceived as being — that he was a bookie’s runner, that he’d not been drafted because he was thought to be completely impossible to discipline, that he had been working as a painter in a warehouse and urinated on the warehouse floor from the scaffolding he was on — and he was clearly not someone who was *ever* going to settle down. The first skiffle band Heath formed was called Bats Heath and the Vampires, and featured Heath on vocals and rhythm guitar, Brian Englund on banjo, Frank Rouledge on lead guitar, and Clive Lazell on washboard. The group went through a variety of names, at one point naming themselves the Frantic Four in what seems to have been an attempt to confuse people into thinking they were seeing Don Lang’s Frantic Five, the group who often appeared on Six-Five Special: [Excerpt: Don Lang and his Frantic Five, “Six-Five Hand Jivel”] The group went through the standard lineup and name changes that almost every amateur group went through, and they ended up as a five-piece group called the Five Nutters. And it was as the Five Nutters that they made their first attempts at becoming stars, when they auditioned for Carroll Levis. Levis was one of the most important people in showbusiness in the UK at this time. He’d just started a TV series, but for years before that his show had been on Radio Luxembourg, which was for many teenagers in the UK the most important radio station in the world. At the time, the BBC had a legal monopoly on radio broadcasting in the UK, but they had a couple of problems when it came to attracting a teenage audience. The first was that they had to provide entertainment for *everyone*, and so they couldn’t play much music that only appealed to teenagers but was detested by adults. But there was a much bigger problem for the BBC when it came to recorded music. In the 1950s, the BBC ran three national radio stations — the Light Programme, the Home Service, and the Third Programme — along with one national TV channel. The Musicians’ Union were worried that playing recorded music on these would lead to their members losing work, and so there was an agreement called “needletime”, which allowed the BBC to use recorded music for twenty-two hours a week, total, across all three radio stations, plus another three hours for the TV. That had to cover every style of music from Little Richard through to Doris Day through to Beethoven. The rest of the time, if they had music, it had to be performed by live musicians, and so you’d be more likely to hear “Rock Around the Clock” as performed by the Northern Dance Orchestra than Bill Haley’s version, and much of the BBC’s youth programming had middle-aged British session musicians trying to replicate the sound of American records and failing miserably. But Luxembourg didn’t have a needle-time rule, and so a commercial English-language station had been set up there, using transmitters powerful enough to reach most of Britain and Ireland. The station was owned and run in Britain, and most of the shows were recorded in London by British DJs like Brian Matthew, Jimmy Savile, and Alan Freeman, although there were also recordings of Alan Freed’s show broadcast on it. The shows were mostly sponsored by record companies, who would make the DJs play just half of the record, so they could promote more songs in their twenty-minute slot, and this was the main way that any teenager in Britain would actually be able to hear rock and roll music. Oddly, even though he spent many years on Radio Luxembourg, Levis’ show, which had originally been on the BBC before the War, was not a music show, but a talent show. Whether on his original BBC radio show, the Radio Luxembourg one, or his new TV show, the format was the same. He would alternate weeks between broadcasting and talent scouting. In talent scouting weeks he would go to a different city each week, where for five nights in a row he would put on talent shows featuring up to twenty different local amateur acts doing their party pieces — without payment, of course, just for the exposure. At the end of the show, the audience would get a chance to clap for each act, and the act that got the loudest applause would go through to a final on the Saturday night. This of course meant that acts that wanted to win would get a lot of their friends and family to come along and cheer for them. The Saturday night would then have the winning acts — which is to say, those who brought along the most paying customers — compete against each other. The most popular of *those* acts would then get to appear on Levis’ TV show the next week. It was, as you can imagine, an extremely lucrative business. When the Five Nutters appeared on Levis’ Discoveries show, they were fairly sure that the audience clapped loudest for them, but they came third. Being the type of person he was, Fred Heath didn’t take this lying down, and remonstrated with Levis, who eventually promised to get the Nutters some better gigs, one suspects just to shut Heath up. As a result of Levis putting in a good word for them, they got a few appearances at places like the 2Is, and made an appearance on the BBC’s one concession to youth culture on the radio — a new show called Saturday Skiffle Club. Around this time, the Five Nutters also recorded a demo disc. The first side was a skiffled-up version of “Shake, Rattle and Roll”, with some extremely good jazzy lead guitar: [Excerpt: Fred Heath and the Five Nutters, “Shake, Rattle, and Roll”] I’ve heard quite a few records of skiffle groups, mostly by professionals, and it’s clear that the Five Nutters were far more musical, and far more interesting, than most of them, even despite the audible sloppiness here. The point of skiffle was meant to be that it was do-it-yourself music that required no particular level of skill — but in this case the Nutters’ guitarist Frank Rouledge was clearly quite a bit more proficient than the run-of-the-mill skiffle guitarist. What was even more interesting about that recording, though, was the B-side, which was a song written by the group. It seems to have been mostly written by Heath, and it’s called “Blood-Red Beauty” because Heath’s wife was a redhead: [Excerpt: Fred Heath and the Five Nutters, “Blood Red Beauty”] The song itself is fairly unexceptional — it’s a standard Hank Williams style hillbilly boogie — but at this time there was still in Britain a fairly hard and fast rule which had performers and songwriters as two distinct things. There were a handful of British rock musicians who were attempting to write their own material — most prominently Billy Fury, a Larry Parnes artist who I’m afraid we don’t have space for in the podcast, but who was one of the most interesting of the late-fifties British acts — but in general, there was a fairly strict demarcation. It was very unusual for a British performer to also be trying to write songs. The Nutters split up shortly after their Saturday Skiffle Club appearance, and Heath formed various other groups called things like The Fabulous Freddie Heath Band and The Fred, Mike & Tom Show, before going back to the old name, with a new lineup of Freddie Heath and the Nutters consisting of himself on vocals, Mike West and Tom Brown — who had been the Mike and Tom in The Fred, Mike, & Tom Show, on backing vocals, Tony Doherty on rhythm guitar, Ken McKay on drums, Johnny Gordon on bass, and on lead guitar Alan Caddy, a man who was known by the nickname “tea”, which was partly a pun on his name, partly a reference to his drinking copious amounts of tea, and partly Cockney rhyming slang — tea-leaf for thief — as he was known for stealing cars. The Nutters got a new agent, Don Toy, and manager, Guy Robinson, but Heath seemed mostly to want to be a songwriter rather than a singer at this point. He was looking to place his songs with other artists, and in early 1959, he did. He wrote a song called “Please Don’t Touch”, and managed to get it placed with a vocal group called the Bachelors — not the more famous group of that name, but a minor group who recorded for Parlophone, a subsidiary of EMI run by a young producer named George Martin. “Please Don’t Touch” came out as the B-side of a Bachelors record: [Excerpt: The Bachelors, “Please Don’t Touch”] One notable thing about the songwriting credit — while most sources say Fred Heath wrote the song by himself, he gave Guy Robinson a co-writing credit on this and many of his future songs. This was partly because it was fairly standard at the time for managers to cut themselves in on their artists’ credits, but also because that way the credit could read Heath Robinson — Heath Robinson was a famous British cartoonist who was notable for drawing impossibly complicated inventions, and whose name had become part of the British language — for American listeners, imagine that the song was credited to Rube Goldberg, and you’ll have the idea. At this point, the Nutters had become quite a professional organisation, and so it was unsurprising that after “Please Don’t Touch” brought Fred Heath to the attention of EMI, a different EMI imprint, HMV, signed them up. Much of the early success of the Nutters, and this professionalism, seems to be down to Don Toy, who seems to have been a remarkably multi-talented individual. As well as being an agent who had contracts with many London venues to provide them with bands, he was also an electrical engineer specialising in sound equipment. He built a two-hundred watt bass amp for the group, at a time when almost every band just put their bass guitar through a normal guitar amp, and twenty-five watts was considered quite loud. He also built a portable tape echo device that could be used on stage to make Heath’s voice sound like it would on the records. Heath later bought the first Copicat echo unit to be made — this was a mass-produced device that would be used by a lot of British bands in the early sixties, and Heath’s had serial number 0001 — but before that became available, he used Toy’s device, which may well have been the very first on-stage echo device in the UK. On top of that, Toy has also claimed that most of the songs credited to Heath and Robinson were also co-written by him, but he left his name off because the credit looked better without it. And whether or not that’s true, he was also the drummer on this first session — Ken McKay, the Nutters’ drummer, was a bit unsteady in his tempo, and Toy was a decent player and took over from him when in April 1959, Fred Heath and the Nutters went into Abbey Road Studio 2, to record their own version of “Please Don’t Touch”. This was ostensibly produced by HMV producer Walter Ridley, but Ridley actually left rock and roll records to his engineer, Peter Sullivan: [Excerpt: Johnny Kidd and the Pirates, “Please Don’t Touch”] It was only when the session was over that they saw the paperwork for it. Fred Heath was the only member of the Nutters to be signed to EMI, with the rest of the group being contracted as session musicians, but that was absolutely normal for the time period — Tommy Steele’s Steelmen and Cliff Richard’s Drifters hadn’t been signed as artists either. What they were concerned about was the band name on the paperwork — it didn’t say Fred Heath and the Nutters, but Johnny Kidd and the Pirates. They were told that that was going to be their new name. They never did find out who it was who had decided on this for them, but from now on Fred Heath was Johnny Kidd. The record was promoted on Radio Luxembourg, and everyone thought it was going to go to number one. Unfortunately, strike action prevented that, and the record was only a moderate chart success — the highest position it hit in any of the UK charts at the time was number twenty on the Melody Maker chart. But that didn’t stop it from becoming an acknowledged classic of British rock and roll. It was so popular that it actually saw an American cover version, which was something that almost never happened with British songs, though Chico Holliday’s version was unsuccessful: [Excerpt: Chico Holliday, “Please Don’t Touch”] It remained such a fond memory for British rockers that in 1980 the heavy metal groups Motorhead and Girlschool recorded it as the supergroup HeadGirl, and it became the biggest hit either group ever had, reaching number five in the British charts: [Excerpt: Headgirl, “Please Don’t Touch”] But while “Please Don’t Touch” was one of the very few good rock and roll records made in Britain, it wasn’t the one for which Johnny Kidd and the Pirates would be remembered. It was, though, enough to make them a big act. They toured the country on a bill compered by Liverpool comedian Jimmy Tarbuck, and they made several appearances on Saturday Club, which had now dropped the “skiffle” name and was the only place anyone could hear rock and roll on BBC radio. Of course, the British record industry having the immense sense of potential it did, HMV immediately capitalised on the success of Johnny Kidd and the Pirates doing a great group performance of an original rock and roll number, by releasing as a follow-up single, a version of the old standard “If You Were the Only Girl in the World and I Were the Only Boy” by Johnny without the Pirates, but with chorus and orchestra conducted by Ivor Raymonde: [Excerpt: Johnny Kidd, “If You Were The Only Girl in the World”] For some reason — I can’t imagine why — that didn’t chart. One suspects that young Lemmy wasn’t quite as fond of that one as “Please Don’t Touch”. The B-side was a quite good rocker, with some nice guitar work from the session guitarist Bert Weedon, but no-one bothered to buy the record at the time, so they didn’t turn it over to hear the other side. The follow-up was better — a reworking of Marv Johnson’s “You’ve Got What it Takes”, one of the hits that Berry Gordy had been writing and producing for Johnson. Johnson’s version made the top five in the UK, but the Pirates’ version still made the top thirty. But by this time there had been some changes. The first change that was made was that the Pirates changed manager — while Robinson would continue getting songwriting credits, the group were now managed through Associated London Scripts, by Stan “Scruffy” Dale. Associated London Scripts was, as the name suggests, primarily a company that produced scripts. It was started as a writers’ co-operative, and in its early days it was made up of seven people. There was Frankie Howerd, one of the most popular stand-up comedians of the time, who was always looking for new material; Spike Milligan, the writer and one of the stars of the Goon Show, the most important surreal comedy of the fifties; Eric Sykes, who was a writer-performer who was involved in almost every important comedy programme of the decade, including co-writing many Goon episodes with Milligan, before becoming a TV star himself; Ray Galton and Alan Simpson, who wrote the most important *sitcom* of the fifties and early sixties, Hancock’s Half Hour; and Scruffy Dale, who was Howerd and Sykes’ manager and was supposed to take care of the business stuff. In fact, though, most of the business was actually taken care of by the seventh person and only woman, Beryl Vertue, who was taken on as the secretary on the basis of an interview that mostly asked about her tea-making skills, but soon found herself doing almost everything — the men in the office got so used to asking her “Could you make the tea, Beryl?”, “Could you type up this script, Beryl?” that they just started asking her things like “Could you renegotiate our contract with the BBC, Beryl?” She eventually became one of the most important women in the TV industry, with her most recent prominent credit being as executive producer on the BBC’s Sherlock up until 2017, more than sixty years after she joined the business. Vertue did all the work to keep the company running — a company which grew to about thirty writers, and between the early fifties and mid sixties, as well as Hancock’s Half Hour and the Goons, its writers created Sykes, Beyond Our Ken, Round the Horne, Steptoe and Son, The Bedsitting Room, the Running, Jumping, Standing Still Film, Til Death Us Do Part, Citizen James, and the Daleks. That’s a list off the top of my head — it would actually be easier to list memorable British comedy programmes and films of the fifties and early sixties that *didn’t* have a script from one of ALS’ writers. And while Vertue was keeping Marty Feldman, John Junkin, Barry Took, Johnny Speight, John Antrobus and all the rest of these new writers in work, Scruffy Dale was trying to create a career in pop management. As several people associated with ALS had made records with George Martin at Parlophone, he had an in there, and some of the few pop successes that Martin had in the fifties were producing acts managed by Dale through ALS, like the Vipers Skiffle Group: [Excerpt: The Vipers Skiffle Group, “Don’t You Rock Me, Daddy-O”] and a young performer named Jim Smith, who wanted to be a comedian and actor, but who Dale renamed after himself, and who had a string of hits as Jim Dale: [Excerpt: Jim Dale, “Be My Girl”] Jim Dale eventually did become a film and TV star, starting with presenting Six-Five Special, and is now best known for having starred in many of the Carry On films and narrating the Harry Potter audiobooks, but at the time he was still a pop star. Jim Dale and the Vipers were the two professional acts headlining an otherwise-amateur tour that Scruffy Dale put together that was very much like Carroll Levis’ Discoveries show, except without the need to even give the winners a slot on the TV every other week. This tour was supposed to be a hunt for the country’s best skiffle group, and there was going to be a grand national final, and the winner of *that* would go on TV. Except they just kept dragging the tour out for eighteen months, until the skiffle fad was completely over and no-one cared, so there never was a national final. And in the meantime the Vipers had to sit through twenty groups of spotty kids a night, all playing “Don’t You Rock Me Daddy-O”, and then go out and play it themselves, every night for eighteen months. Scruffy Dale was unscrupulous in other ways as well, and not long after he’d taken on the Pirates’ management he was sacked from ALS. Spike Milligan had never liked Dale — when told that Dale had lost a testicle in the war, he’d merely replied “I hope he dropped it on Dresden” — but Frankie Howerd and Eric Sykes had always been impressed with his ability to negotiate deals. But then Frankie Howerd found out that he’d missed out on lucrative opportunities because Dale had shoved letters in his coat pocket and forgotten about them for a fortnight. He started investigating a few more things, and it turned out that Dale had been siphoning money from Sykes and Howerd’s personal bank accounts into his own, having explained to their bank manager that it would just be resting in his account for them, because they were showbiz people who would spend it all too fast, so he was looking after them. And he’d also been doing other bits of creative accounting — every success his musical acts had was marked down as something he’d done independently, and all the profits went to him, while all the unsuccessful ventures were marked down as being ALS projects, and their losses charged to the company. So neither Dale nor the Pirates were with Associated London Scripts very long. But Dale made one very important change — he and Don Toy decided between them that most of the Pirates had to go. There were six backing musicians in the group if you counted the two backing vocalists, who all needed paying, and only one could read music — they weren’t professional enough to make a career in the music business. So all of the Pirates except Alan Caddy were sacked. Mike West and Tony Doherty formed another band, Robby Hood and His Merry Men, whose first single was written by Kidd (though it’s rare enough I’ve not been able to find a copy anywhere online). The new backing group was going to be a trio, modelled on Johnny Burnette’s Rock and Roll Trio — just one guitar, bass, and drums. They had Caddy on lead guitar, Clem Cattini on drums, and Brian Gregg on bass. Cattini was regarded as by far the best rock drummer in Britain at the time. He’d played with Terry Dene’s backing band the Dene Aces, and can be seen glumly backing Dene in the film The Golden Disc: [Excerpt: Terry Dene, “Candy Floss”] Gregg had joined Dene’s band, and they’d both then moved on to be touring musicians for Larry Parnes, backing most of the acts on a tour featuring Gene Vincent and Eddie Cochran that we’ll be looking at next week. They’d played with various of Parnes’ acts for a while, but had then asked for more money, and he’d refused, so they’d quit working for Parnes and joined Vince Taylor and the Playboys. They’d only played with the Playboys a few weeks when they moved on to Chas McDevitt’s group. For a brief time, McDevitt had been the biggest star in skiffle other than Lonnie Donegan, but he was firmly in the downward phase of his career at this point. McDevitt also owned a coffee bar, the Freight Train, named after his biggest hit, and most of the musicians in London would hang out there. And after Clem Cattini and Brian Gregg had joined the Pirates, it was at the Freight Train that the song for which the group would be remembered was written. They were going to go into the studio to record another song chosen by the record label — a version of the old standard “Yes Sir, That’s My Baby” — because EMI had apparently not yet learned that if you had Johnny Kidd record old standards, no-one bought it, but if you had him record bluesy rock and roll you had a hit. But they’d been told they could write their own B-side, as they’d been able to on the last few singles. They were also allowed to bring in Joe Moretti to provide a second guitar — Moretti, who had played the solo on “Brand New Cadillac”, was an old friend of Clem Cattini’s, and they thought he’d add something to the record, and also thought they’d be doing him a favour by letting him make a session fee — he wasn’t a regular session player. So they all got together in the Freight Train coffee bar, and wrote another Heath/Robinson number. They weren’t going to do anything too original for a B-side, of course. They nicked a rhythm guitar part from “Linda Lu”, a minor US hit that Lee Hazelwood had produced for a Chuck Berry soundalike named Ray Sharpe, and which was itself clearly lifted from “Speedoo” by the Cadillacs: [Excerpt: Ray Sharpe, “Linda Lu”] They may also have nicked Joe Moretti’s lead guitar part as well, though there’s more doubt about this. There’s a Mickey and Sylvia record, “No Good Lover”, which hadn’t been released in the UK at the time, so it’s hard to imagine how they could have heard it, but the lead guitar part they hit on was very, very similar — maybe someone had played it on Radio Luxembourg: [Excerpt: Mickey and Sylvia, “No Good Lover”] They combined those musical ideas with a lyric that was partly a follow-on to the line in “Please Don’t Touch” about shaking too much, and partly a slightly bowdlerised version of a saying that Kidd had — when he saw a woman he found particularly attractive, he’d say “She gives me quivers in me membranes”. As it was a B-side, the track they recorded only took two takes, plus a brief overdub for Moretti to add some guitar shimmers, created by him using a cigarette lighter as a slide: [Excerpt: Johnny Kidd and the Pirates, “Shakin’ All Over”] The song was knocked off so quickly that they even kept in a mistake — before the guitar solo, Clem Cattini was meant to play just a one-bar fill. Instead he played for longer, which was very unlike Cattini, who was normally a professional’s professional. He asked for another take, but the producer just left it in, and that break going into the solo was one of the things that people latched on to: [Excerpt: Johnny Kidd and the Pirates, “Shakin’ All Over”] Despite the track having been put together from pre-existing bits, it had a life and vitality to it that no other British record except “Brand New Cadillac” had had, and Kidd had the added bonus of actually being able to hold a tune, unlike Vince Taylor. The record company quickly realised that “Shakin’ All Over” should be the record that they were pushing, and flipped the single. The Pirates appeared on Wham!, the latest Jack Good TV show, and immediately the record charted. It soon made number one, and became the first real proof to British listeners that British people could make rock and roll every bit as good as the Americans — at this point, everyone still thought Vince Taylor was from America. It was possibly Jack Good who also made the big change to Johnny Kidd’s appearance — he had a slight cast in one eye that got worse as the day went on, with his eyelid drooping more and more. Someone — probably Good — suggested that he should make this problem into an advantage, by wearing an eyepatch. He did, and the Pirates got pirate costumes to wear on stage, while Kidd would frantically roam the stage swinging a cutlass around. At this point, stagecraft was something almost unknown to British rock performers, who rarely did more than wear a cleanish suit and say “thank you” after each song. The only other act that was anything like as theatrical was Screaming Lord Sutch and the Savages, a minor act who had ripped off Screamin’ Jay Hawkins’ act. The follow-up, “Restless”, was very much “Shakin’ All Over” part two, and made the top thirty. After that, sticking with the formula, they did a version of “Linda Lu”, but that didn’t make the top forty at all. Possibly the most interesting record they made at this point was a version of “I Just Want to Make Love to You”, a song Willie Dixon had written for Muddy Waters: [Excerpt: Johnny Kidd and the Pirates, “I Just Want to Make Love to You”] The Pirates were increasingly starting to include blues and R&B songs in their set, and the British blues boom artists of the next few years would often refer to the Pirates as being the band that had inspired them. Clem Cattini still says that Johnny Kidd was the best British blues singer he ever heard. But as their singles were doing less and less well, the Pirates decided to jump ship. Colin Hicks, Tommy Steele’s much less successful younger brother, had a backing band called the Cabin Boys, which Brian Gregg had been in before joining Terry Dene’s band. Hicks had now started performing an act that was based on Kidd’s, and for a tour of Italy, where he was quite popular, he wanted a new band — he asked the Pirates if they would leave Kidd and become the latest lineup of Cabin Boys, and they left, taking their costumes with them. Clem Cattini now says that agreeing was the worst move he ever made, but they parted on good terms — Kidd said “Alan, Brian and Clem left me to better themselves. How could I possibly begrudge them their opportunity?” We’ll be picking up the story of Alan, Brian, and Clem in a few months’ time, but in the meantime, Kidd picked up a new backing band, who had previously been performing as the Redcaps, backing a minor singer called Cuddly Dudley on his single “Sitting on a Train”: [Excerpt: Cuddly Dudley and the Redcaps, “Sitting on a Train”] That new lineup of Pirates didn’t last too long before the guitarist quit, due to ill health, but he was soon replaced by Mick Green, who is now regarded by many as one of the great British guitarists of all time, to the extent that Wilko Johnson, another British guitarist who came to prominence about fifteen years later, has said that he spent his entire career trying and failing to sound like MIck Green. In 1962 and 63 the group were playing clubs where they found a lot of new bands who they seemed to have things in common with. After playing the Cavern in Liverpool and a residency at the Star Club in Hamburg, they added Richie Barrett’s “Some Other Guy” and Arthur Alexander’s “A Shot of Rhythm and Blues” to their sets, two R&B numbers that were very popular among the Liverpool bands playing in Hamburg but otherwise almost unknown in the UK. Unfortunately, their version of “A Shot of Rhythm and Blues” didn’t chart, and their record label declined to issue their version of “Some Other Guy” — and then almost immediately the Liverpool group The Big Three released their version as a single, and it made the top forty. As the Pirates’ R&B sound was unsuccessful — no-one seemed to want British R&B, at all — they decided to go the other way, and record a song written by their new manager, Gordon Mills (who would later become better known for managing Tom Jones and Englebert Humperdinck). “I’ll Never Get Over You” was a very catchy, harmonised, song in the style of many of the new bands that were becoming popular, and it’s an enjoyable record, but it’s not really in the Pirates’ style: [Excerpt: Johnny Kidd and the Pirates, “I’ll Never Get Over You”] That made number four on the charts, but it would be Johnny Kidd and the Pirates’ last major hit. They did have a minor hit with another song by Mills, “Hungry For Love”, but a much better record, and a much better example of the Pirates’ style, was an R&B single released by the Pirates without Kidd. The plan at the time was that they would be split into two acts in the same way as Cliff Richard and the Shadows — Kidd would be a solo star, while the Pirates would release records of their own. The A-side of the Pirates’ single was a fairly good version of the Willie Dixon song “My Babe”, but to my ears the B-side is better — it’s a version of “Casting My Spell”, a song originally by an obscure duo called the Johnson Brothers, but popularised by Johnny Otis. The Pirates’ version is quite possibly the finest early British R&B record I’ve heard: [Excerpt: The Pirates, “Casting My Spell”] That didn’t chart, and the plan to split the two acts failed. Neither act ever had another hit again, and eventually the classic Mick Green lineup of the Pirates split up — Green left first, to join Billy J Kramer and the Dakotas, and the rest left one by one. In 1965, The Guess Who had a hit in the US with their cover version of “Shakin’ All Over”: [Excerpt: The Guess Who, “Shakin’ All Over”] The Pirates were reduced to remaking their own old hit as “Shakin’ All Over ’65” in an attempt to piggyback on that cover version, but the new version, which was dominated by a Hammond organ part, didn’t have any success. After the Pirates left Kidd, he got a new group, which he called the New Pirates. He continued making extremely good records on occasion, but had no success at all. Even though younger bands like the Rolling Stones and the Animals were making music very similar to his, he was regarded as an outdated novelty act, a relic of an earlier age from six years earlier. There was always the potential for him to have a comeback, but then in 1966 Kidd, who was never a very good driver and had been in a number of accidents, arrived late at a gig in Bolton. The manager refused to let him on stage because he’d arrived so late, so he drove off to find another gig. He’d been driving most of the day, and he crashed the car and died, as did one person in the vehicle he crashed into. His final single, “Send For That Girl”, was released after his death. It’s really a very good record, but at the time Kidd’s fortunes were so low that even his death didn’t make it chart: [Excerpt: Johnny Kidd and the New Pirates, “Send For That Girl”] Kidd was only thirty when he died, and already a has-been, but he left behind the most impressive body of work of any pre-Beatles British act. Various lineups of Pirates have occasionally played since — including, at one point, Cattini and Gregg playing with Joe Moretti’s son Joe Moretti Jr — but none have ever captured that magic that gave millions of people quivers down the backbone and shakes in the kneebone.

like episode like Joe Rogan episode number 2068 they still let us back on 2068 means only have 2065 the ghetto Jordan close we are getting closer so thank you again for joining us that the feedback is that once awesome it's a it's impressive I had no idea it this many people in such a short amount of time and want to hear what we had to say about bridging the gap between health and nine natural and medical science absolutely I love it we've been as we get to hear shortly is a big message by a bunch of people and had a lot of friends from you know all over the United States contact us and say hey that was that was interesting is recovering some cool stuff special last week with Sean Brian's on if you did not check it out please deep dive into CBD and a little bit into the cannabis industry but really cool such a deep dive that the material was so informative that YouTube of course allowed us to keep spreading the message but Facebook will hold our our recording down for little while we had replaced it with YouTube so I guess if you want to know the truth then sometimes I suppose, slow down a little bit about the debts and we covered those topics like they obviously did that because of the particular topic that were time as we are all about the science of it where showing everything that's working to do really continue to do this and today what could we have our show today we are going to be joined by Chef Patrick Mosher now if you listen to the spoony network already chef Patrick Mosher is already somebody they are quite familiar with however get experience from all different aspects of cooking for gigantic hotels being a part owner of some large chains and putting together the food items ever essentially he's he knows how to build food and how to make something out of his message is you are what you eat my messages all health begins and ends in the gut this is why teaming up with chefs and getting out those can be supercool thrilled to have him is actually the producer of our show so this is going to be any reason to tune in to be that were to move him over here and easier to be a guest so we had to on the fly he had to on-the-fly teach Eric's wife Marie to run the to the production desk over there so if anything let's just stay tuned for that because as a camera isn't where it's supposed to be don't be mad at her doing what she did she just learn how to do it two seconds ago hey you can't blame her for me setting the camera incorrectly can't blame her yelling at the right way that are really fun though regardless speaking of let's get caught up on our on our recent week weekends anything big happened with with you and your families last week it's pretty chill something conical I just mentioned a little bit about how people been messaging us now remember we are the gut check project I phrases check your ego at the door everything is on the table and somebody had messaged me on Instagram and asked why do we what was to get your project Y check your ego at the door and only last week was actually my birthday on our show and I I read a book written by Ryan Holliday called the daily Stoic all this is a fun little way to start your day by those every single day he takes a lesson from a Stoic philosopher McKenna dumbs it down and gets it through okay so March 14 was one that I had I thought it was way too coincidental that somebody message me for this and this was the actual thing so bear with me while I explain this but it makes total sense to me and this is the kind of stuff I start my day with so the quote is from DRG this layer to this Zeno would also say that nothing is more hostile to a firm grasp on knowledge than self-deception so what I like about it Reinhold he then breaks it down basically says self-deception delusions of grandeur these aren't just annoying personality traits ego is more than just offputting and obnoxious instead it is the sworn enemy of our ability to learn and grow as Epictetus said it it is impossible for a person to begin to learn what he thinks he already knows today we will be unable to improve unable to learn unable to earn the respect of others if we think were already perfect and a genius admitting it so that was the philosophy that you and I have ordered set up the show it's got check project check your ego at the door sitdown and let's learn from each other let's teach each other and that's why we have a chef on today is regularly about food right we deftly learn little about food you well it's good question so I speaking to my wife who is going to work in Camas today for a show thank you Marie this this last weekend we spent our time with my boys putting down a new floor on the chicken coop so alive has had experience in the past we've had her own chickens and we harvest on eggs is the best tasting as you can possibly imagine but if you like spending around 72 $73 and egg get yourself some chicken because it's awesome they taste terrific buddy on the great that reminds me because I do believe that you guys tried some beekeeping at one time you and I put together what we've taken care of carob some patients which I'm sure that be okay with me saying that that they were beekeepers so there was a Dr. Robert Bender was a gynecologist in town unfortunately died of cancer but it was the funniest thing having lunch with him and he thought about how him and his wife decide to get into making honey results fantastic to goes I'm a gynecologist I know how to deal with women I sent you will treat one queen really good and I get all this honey and were selling this honey its local natural honey it's $7.60 a bottle only cost me 28 per bottle exactly what you say and I love that guide I love the quote unfortunately always best on book I like it when people take risks like that kind of owner will completely own it, check your ego at the door to tell you that were having fun doing it were not making money the farm fresh eggs taste great we just got to get to the point where we don't have our dogs take chicken that's others to hate the originals you mentioned a book and some is really cool/we even reading this book from Isabella Wentz ideas yes you and I both receive this fantastic book Isabella Wentz is an amazing PhD once you haveso can I fortunately meant to admit Isabel and her husband's a year and 1/2 ago when were working in San Diego and she was diagnosed Hashimoto's and dad she then asked she was diagnosed with Hashimoto she went on to change her diet laminate some of her triggers trigger foods like gluten and dairy containing foods and then began to find that she could eliminate out that inflammation and put herself on a road to recovery it's not any different than what you wrote out what you have the Stoics book the reason was to get to project what dad Dr. RI what does chef Patrick's going to join us and talk about how you can control how you feel with great food it's no different so thank you very much Isabella for Isabella and your husband's name but will find that out and thanks so much for sending us the book W read this to recommend it to my patients you done an amazing job oh yeah Hashimoto's food pharmacology food pharmacology comes with a full meal plan at the very back with all the way down to what exactly what to buy inmates like any other recipe book but it's it's high quality tell you why why you're doing what you're doing not just eat this for here's what will do will all of them will all read come back into her like a sort of synopsis of the book once again as well thank you so much for doing that supersmart woman love talking to her when we were in San Diego with my insurer meeting that was awesome definitely absolutely season quick catch up for listening here on spoony don't forget if you want to drop by and pick up some love my tummy.com/spoony for your own are trying to heal you get a discount for using spinning is the discount code as well as check out KB MD health get your brand-new KB MD CBD in our new store so if any of you have ever read Isabella Wentz's books or if you enjoy the show at all we are all transported to other this is a rising tide will lift all ships one way to do that is to actually go to these websites purchase a product and use those codes so that everyone is trying to help each other out we want to make sure that Chef Patrick has a successful show and his network grows in the spoony radio digital platform becomes massive and one way to do it is definitely going on and supporting our sponsors without question without question will get moving here when our first half-hour and dad, the format is that we touch on health matters as they come through KB MD health was to talk about here the gut check project so can want you tell us a little bit about what is on your mind healthwise today so one of the things I mean I'm a complete nerd so you want to geek out at some point in the show and I was thinking of the articles I but I basically spent my nose in journals all day long and starts trying figure stuff out but then I came across this really cool article about the science of food and it just falls perfectly into this Hashimoto's food pharmacology and were to have Chef Patrick on here so no food is fascinating why do we like it does so many things you've got texture you've got smell you taste the consistency of it there is a whole science cold food pairing Scientology porcine science science and science technology and technology articles food pairing technology Where you look at this and you can actually manipulate which we like for instance one of the examples were the more simple examples would be like when you eat really fatty meal ribeye right will the lubrication that happens on your tongue if you do too much of it you can balance that out with an astringent thing that actually binds to proteins and gets rid of that slimy field okay so it's the balance you don't want too much of anything guess what is very stringent read one that's how come red wine pairs so well with a good adding ribeye has and an actor just get that to go away so I started going down this route a whole family's articles and I'm sure that this is second nature to the chefs out there and the other golf course that is but this work is really fun as it turns out only 20% of your taste is actually happening on your tongue okay 80% is the aroma and it's the aroma the terms on everything else so the we perceive the aromas because they interact with our olfactory nerves so as it turns out these different aromas do different things and you can augment them we talked about the entourage effect last week you can actually have an entourage effect when it comes to food by pairing certain foods that have chemically similar aroma molecules okay so in and before you do for my taking a sip of this be similar you said that you would use an astringent to basically cleanse your mouth it's really probably no different than using I'm guessing Ginger whenever you're about to eat sushi so the ginger works like that exactly so as it turns out like for instance did you know that like white chocolate and caviar go very well together did not it's wild because when you put it through when you take these foods and what the scientists are doing is they're taking the foods and they're putting it into a gas chromatograph okay and what that is is that is something that actually shows the molecular weight you can go out here despite your spike these two foods share similar spikes as it turns out white chocolate and caviar share similar spikes in that molecule is trimethyl Ammon Miriam smells like fish sure does in fact there's a disease on the side note: try methyl or I'm sorry it's try meth alanine is the molecule trimethyl and manure is one that I'm familiar with is I've actually had patients come to me and like it's weird when I eat certain foods people can't be around me there like you have a weird odor that's called trimethyl Avenue area and it's that molecule which is trimethyl M and trimethyl amine certain people have a genetic predisposition with the Caprica and I looked at them going to do anybody receipts in a like for like yeah and Mike got in all we do is change your diet problems gone yet so I could you start looking at some of the stuff in the science behind it is so cool when you're looking at the interactions what can happen is that you can have similar molecules that paying your olfactory nerve to go to your brain and go oh that's this and then if another food pairing pink that same one a little bit a little more little less so on then it heightens the first one so you can build your recipes and food off of the molecular structure and beyond the whole tongue thing you know the sweet salt bitter sour mommy the new one the earthy flavor of this is the way to really take your food to the next level and much of what chefs have probably learned Michelin star rated shaft is there already doing it without realizing that it could be based on the science of this church so for instance like a large portion of a strawberry actually has cheesy molecules really so you can sit there and pair strawberries with a certain cheese and it will augment each other the they will build each other up so really fun I never would've thought about this checking my ego at the door I start going down food science because we got a chef on the show today and then this opened up the whole thing right on the UK website now just real quick it would just be any kind she's surely has to be you would make strawberry nachos I'm just saying I can a case on top of the pile strawberries no no it has to be certain she's with similar molecules okay that have this yet and so you can go to food pairing.com and my kids are having some fun with this today where you can create a recipe so I so I looked out to Chef Patrick give me a protein anything you want give me some food product or to build a recipe offer right now live let's go with duck duck so this done whereas I specifically duck breast reason to start with this not a malady yeah okay would you like to be wild yes okay wild now will begin to do is somebody has put a duck breast into a gas chromatograph and they have figured out how to actually pay the so now foods that are similar or foods that have a molecular component that is similar include all kinds of different stuff but basically here we go I think that you should pair this with as it turns out Remi Martin cognac that's why he had his first thinking online CLE source any serious interest in their honor will find out right here what we put a citrus solicitors one day before he answers Patrick what kind of citrus would you would you already kind of will intuitively think it will because he thinks something is sweet yet astringent like can I do colorize right so you have this rich duck in and it's not just a fat ass again okay accommodation all the flavors some curious if if the classic pairing in particular is one that comes up one would match okay and also so fun about this is that now or build it so I an interesting fruit that you showed up as persimmon oh so will add that one so now it's happenings were build missile recipes so you can decide how you do this so we have the ability now to realize okay why do certain foods taste good so my son Lucas and I were talking others were having fun today looking at this and he goes wait a minute is this a way to prepare foods so that the healthier foods will seem like they taste better take so like I want to put tail and do something else with that and I'm a parent with something that'll augment the cheesy flavor of something else use less of that more of the tail they help each other out like this facet of never ever ever heard of using food pairings through molecular studies to possibly trick your brain into liking the food more making healthy food more appetizing making healthy food more appetizing as well yeah interesting yeah so just come and follow things left my nerdy clip of the of the of the show youngest and hours on there now you just ruined her life anyway though I am so what you can do is you can actually Savior food parents and my kids were doing this also and my daughter Carla built a 40 or 50 when we look at it here she started with C Urchin okay branched out and we've got all kinds of stuff see urgent tied to cow mozzarella which eventually takes us to buckwheat and you can just see how much fun this could be were you could do this and it's it's based off the realm of what I loved about what Lucas said was let's make healthy food tastier sure and do it like this sure a lot of chefs probably know this but this is a way to actually use this as this is the style that I would do when I have the Hashimoto's food pharmacology going on to make it taste a little better as a way to do nano kid let's answer bets and brilliant tool that I had never been exposed to Alec some of the idea that foods could make you smell all the different onions for instance I may not love onions but if not grilled in your eating fresh onions it's MS your partner is also eating onions it sets, no go right you and I had a discussion on and I wanted to rail us off of of building that the foods to make them taste better but wasn't that long ago you and I had a discussion about what asparagus does to urine and you said that somebody was doing a test whenever I believe you are in med school that they were basically trying to figure out how fast somebody could rapidly make the the year and change its odor from consuming disparaging of that conversation is absolutely so back in the day this during my fellowship Dr. Wessler was the was a pioneering guesser elegy he's the guy that figured out that there is such a thing as lactose intolerance and we say that like it's nothing but somebody had to figure out that there's an enzyme called lactase and so he was as it as a scientist and document it was kind of fun because he would give us a lecture every year and the fantastic guy is in his 70s just kinda having fun with us each a part-time no part-time lecturer and it would be the same lectures would be lovely pictures from like the 70s it's awesome he made everybody eat a bowl of asparagus and then they had to go P and never really had the time when they could spell when they could smell the asparagus is because that was his absorption study which are not only do away with that now ribs like you ever eat this brilliant. We started smelling yeah yeah the take away whenever you were doing that they were stressing how quickly it happened to break down the food I was really quickly in these molecules that do this – get in your bloodstream and get filtered through your and some of them remarkably quick so what do we handle distribute on about onions when people take Allison which is a garlic extract that they will actually use the garlic out of their breath out of everything because it just gets absorbed so much and that's one of the issues that my patients will have in the company will be taking supplements be like something's wrong Mark are you and Allison like yeah Mike I could smell it from here well if you happen to watch the gut check project and you want us to have the ability to tackle a new subject the best thing to do is go to KB MD health.com escaping the health.com go to the gut check project show you'll find that there is the ability to connect with us and submit something he wants to tackle that's really how we the last two weeks we stumble across what we've always come across to talk about we cover so much ground he only would it be really cool we were talking last week about bringing Dr. Blair on Col. Blair onward and talk about TBI right now imagine doing the product light on the hospital's trauma hospital we have a food protocol for traumatic brain injury we don't have CBD protocol with DHEA or any that stuff when the beat amazing week ago were going to be a brain information diet your to be on the supplements and this is the protocols can happen that's the goal of this whole thing is to bring science and I mean a whole separate show would be talking about so fewer of thing which is a molecule and cruciferous vegetables like broccoli was it turns out it's really really good for you it's anticancer it's anti-inflammatory but when you cook it the enzyme can't break it down called the Rawson Ace and so like a little hack would be a chef we can sit there and say no were to put some of mustard seed powder on it and then it will actually convert it so you just made your broccoli or broccoli sprouts way healthier sure so if you ever get diagnosed with cancer and there's all these crazy studies about like bladder cancer and stuff like that when you do that like I would love to have a protocol food protocol what you're gonna do the Hashimoto's food protocols right there working have a food protocol if you get this venture headed that way no joke on the Chrysippus vegetables they come with them basically so you're blocking the estrogen correct correct yeah not separate magical inane speaking of preservice vegetables B cauliflower just last night my wife and I went to go eat pizza awesome pizzeria and actually make gluten-free pizza the crust was made out of cauliflower it's amazing what they're doing cauliflower now because it taste like great bread and is not read it all basically having a great Chris Arafat's vegetable while you're eating a delicious pizza and were hoping that in spray glyphosate on it so that it's a good skill LOL yeah non-GMO vegetable crust they taste just like regular bread is real know I love all of those cauliflower crust so

upon the intended I've met a lot of chefs and a lot of sepsis patients and I am just fascinated by that lifestyle that you don't thank you so much for coming on we talked earlier about how Isabella went send us her book and last hour talk about how food is you are what you eat all health begins and ends in the gut and here we are we've got a chef with some serious experience you have you have done a lot if you think you and I worked at been fortunate to work all over the world I asked you can start my culinary career in Japan well as I started my culinary career career in a Sizzler steakhouse when I was like 14 what what kind scissors Western Sizzler is yearly wishes Sizzler stay cast so Sizzler was a pretty big Chad pretty chain back in the 80s and early 90s her hand so I would see I was the busboy dishwasher at the scissor state has until Thursday night came around I got Says that as a dishwasher busboy and apparently on Thursdays there is all you keep popcorn shrimp so the kitchen as he was like okay cool I'll cook so I was Sam's bussing outback that he can put 10 piece shrimp on any given play because it's all you can eat right there Arizona State football team and command after he simply teachers that your back in your ear like helping other iron in their back there, laughing at you because they get your percentage of your tips not only do the hardest job is to clean the fire at the end of the night but they get your money it only took me at six weeks to figure that out here and I was like man I'm the dumbest guy in the planet and and shrimp everywhere feared you yeah you know what's it's interesting that my first job in the kitchen sent me home smelling like seafood because leaders are progressing to see Sheehan seafood specifically every night was like a gate getting came to bed before he took a shower because your sheets are just a mistake in his previous but it is what is your family was your family a frequenter of the Sizzler growing up yes we reduces her in Omaha Nebraska so the salad bar limits telephone the logic of that was just going there my favorite item there as a kid was that not any part of the salad that the canned chocolate pudding for whatever reason quite nutritious goes right alongside the square chicken fried steak so this is what I love me with with your culinary chops that has gone all the way to Japan to learn this is where you start is frying shrimp and it says look I lasted about two weeks at McDonald's for that but I don't really count that right now I have nobody ever does now I was acquitted sure what I should do to food my father had a large garden but we lived in upstate New York and the town of Carinthia Corinth if you live there it's near Saratoga Springs Albany that area coming in the middle of steak and damn mind my dad's entire family all of his siblings except one brother lived it within a mile of each other on the same road and my grandfather owns a few sections of land on either side he had a dairy farm and then a large vegetable garden and my father attended at least an acre garden every year so we spent summers as I was like three on the pic means you're picking beans and snapping beans and helping mom put stuff in jar so she could cannon like a cat I am not sure I tell my first culinary job as a real job in the family right up your alley just doesn't work out well my grandfather's letter to cattle every winter and then we split the meat up but amongst the family charities usually did two more later but early in the winter the first big heavy snowfall made at and C have to string them the absolute peace how you gently say you killed him he just killed the bank and then… Our first episode we are to explain my background were Eric would go with his dad to register you and I would go to the slaughter house and my dad was a running neck and since that's what you're saying that let me know know it's not actually it's more like the ad that gasped AGI part O… Depart this maybe maybe maybe I missed my calling but before they can ask to get the animal there something has to be done so they hang it up upside down you have to climb up a ladder and you have to I was five years old when I was taught this my first time you to cut around the muscle up around of the maintenance and yet the tide because if you don't when the stomach elongates it's a geyser oh comes at the back is so that was my first real job for the family in slaughtering B was I got to climb the ladder and hi Taft about who I now I am I much rather have a mean as more or less permanent constipation makes total sense what you were drawing you like him to know where you already you know why writing for lent for several years plus the cost so after you had the exposure to the dairy farm and all the vegetables then that obviously is setting a foundation for you to get into food you probably had no idea that's where your leaning but i know i did and i really my mother was a great cut my father was a good cook a very good cook and her whole family every every that revolved around food okay so as i got my father died very young i was six years old he died to great cancer at 47 while yes and dad back then there was no really no treatment by the time they figured out why you had back pain is been much over and anyway so but i spent a lot of time when my mother cooking after that – i just i just picked up i really love food i did i i was fortunate enough to move to germany my senior year in high school and the family that that that i lived with that hosted me was very generous in that we had to get other countries in and dine on some fantastic food and food as a way of life for them and in germany is where i learned about minimalism in the covered you know because they have dorm style refrigerators don't have baked refrigerators are slightly larger than little boxes you have in your dormitory in the shop every day every single day at least once a day to shop as it was for your bracket was delivered in the morning fresh while that's pretty interesting. it was awesome so i just a side note growing up and watching my grandmother cook my dad's mom she was she was fantastic i loved her fried chicken as she fried a lot of stuff but for some reason back then she still remained skinny but she and i don't know if your mom or your dad was like this my grandmother could flavor anything to taste terrific fried chicken chicken fried steak vegetables etc. but one of her trademarks was to always cook with a cigarette hanging out of her lip that was flavored building with burn ashes in there as well as i think that she saved all the different kinds of meats that she brought in the oil and in different folders cans fish oil and that chicken grease etc. is it something that you also did not say new york yeah you don't weld eventually i think had a different flavor and if it will will start thereby produce because we have burn pile of year trees that would fall with a lot of property and we burn on the actual garden so what would and might my father would rotate back and forth into plots so each season the previous year's burn pile become the new garden in city dias content right the potash well – content was really high so a lot of minerals and i mean it's it's amazing how healthy the vegetables are when you do that you people used to take the ashes from the fireplace and put them into the burn pile into their compost deep sure we don't anymore but that is not right there was just fantastic for the flavor and the freshness of vegetables but my money as she skewed everything okay you accept what you call it swiss steak was boiled whatever lien beef steak she could buy it was the cheapest cut with a bone in it and smothered in them tomatoes and garlic and then she broil that the oven it was actually pretty good – he sounds delicious compared to what were some of the first part of the show what i'm thinking is that you know smoking has a lot of it is a carcinogen known as benzene but we should do is see the chemical structure similar to benzene to add that good childhood flavor that you're missing the smoke when without getting the cancer yeah yeah probably so he can get you can put winston cigarettes into the mass spectra shouldn't even pops out to charge me figure out figure out what fruit or vegetable has a similar molecular component near benzene time answer i'm interested that i'm really curious about that this is a fascinating science for me and i'm thinking i could just as i could change my restaurant consulting business to just be menu consulting based on this and take the elevator TOoh yeah absolutely this is the kind of stuff and we wouldn't be talking about if we were preparing for the show i was just i was just a deal try to think of okay what's a really cool thing we talk about i have to sciences up i like it i'm a nerd and i'll probably try do this with every single topic that we do find something that yes really fun oh terrible that would be really cool so you're sitting there sobbing for your dispose of this great organic before organic was cool you guys had a mechanically warm touch poor poor alright so what happened after that we moved arizona which was a whole different thing i learned about spicy spicy foods right my first meal out in every week and eat out a lot as a child very rarely maybe once or twice a year at the most we went to this little mexican restaurant between chandler and gilbert arizona which are now massive towns that have grown together but then they were just very small towns and that limit its cost is something this little mexican place and i had a chimichanga's mother eating spicy green chili salsa and i went ballistic it was it was done i was never anything but eat tasty food again and and and and not healthy necessarily but flavorful food and that that cannabis bondholder you and you live down there is i guess i was in sixth grade summer and allowing a nice set of a few years so then you you progress through graduate and then you end up oil before you graduate you worked the sizzler and then how did you decide that food beyond being told they arraigned a danger going to do popcorn shrimp something you want to pursue and deliver to people to make him happy what i had few other jobs cooking after that but what i realized is that no matter how how cash strapped your family might be there is always food in the restaurant and she works there used to get some of it for free sure so i think that was it i think mentally i determined never be hungry again right and i just parlayed into into a career but i really and start cooking full-time jobs in japan is working as an interpreter such working as a copywriter start get some interpret good job in japan like writer i did for chemical trans tech international they were a check technical translation company the parents of a friend of mine had come to united states to go to school in eighth grade and stayed all the way through high school they owned and ran the company in osaka japan and he invited me to come and work for them after while i was acting in college time well so i heard you speak german and you also speak japanese type hello, so wow so this is fascinating so chefs or super intelligent people that know i'm serious. many of my friends are chefs or people of extremes share the nar that is fascinating you speak japanese german english to work and back doing appetizer version and it was as fascinating i love you and japanese chefs are so meticulous they have the waiting approach for japan and she had a proverb that defines through japan and it's it's it's that the only the audience at is actually it's it's not just food it's the food it is the substance of the universe right so their philosophy is let it let little seem like much as long as it is fresh and beautiful let little seem like much, as long as it is fresh and beautiful so small portions very ornate and well garnished very clean and seasonal seasonal is the key word there and typically local all just too far ahead but i do remember one of our previous conversations you did say that you were with the noble as well greg i did work for number for number years i actually i was the executive chef and that helped open a restaurant in aspen last month he said that's his last name and then i was fortunate similar location so in a minute i'll imagine all those principles that you're talking about probably carried over to the live presentation the food yeah you know honeywell there's a whole another layer there and he he lived and worked in peru for a long time and he was fascinated by french cooking techniques so he took these japanese base ingredients added the layer of the like infuse the flavors of's of peru and chile and then to add that to another level by using french cooking techniques and just phenomenal stuff while yelling at ocean would say there so my family were huge asian cuisine fans all of it our favorite restaurant is actually japanese restaurant in plano we go there at least once a week really i mean you can send him a plug – or llama iam a check now yeah we have the it's just unbelievable it's it's it's it's good and sensitive i think is very very traditional japanese food had told me our waitress is always our waitress so we just sit around and through to start showing up that's what i love the methodical just this is what's happening it is predictable it is well and it's thoughtful thoughtful yes so it here's a really interesting cultural thing from japan is a great book called mino because with some the dip the anatomy of interdependency okay okay describes her whole culture one of things in japan and when you start a sentence they finish it for you like ice to teach for this guy jenna ricci he had two small children i spoke in my itouch spoken english i taught them english and japanese speaking is my second day speaking with so gimme a break he would call in and he would say i think you and i say yes he is jonah lychee desiccated and will mean this is generally key and he just stopped and i'm supposed to finish since you must be calling about but i wish i didn't know that right some just like okay hi i just wait for him to say something but eventually you learn it's like him japanese interject a lot they say hi a so they stay in there what they're doing is they might say yes oh is not so there interjecting to let you know there listening actively listening even if they say something in agreement it does mean they agree okay i mean yeah but anyway back to the point i was making is when somebody hurts a guest and some house for the first time in you they say would you like some coffee and you say yes they don't ask you how you want to and they don't bring you the things to put cream and sugar in it they automatically put in cream and sugar because the first time as a guest in their house you should not have to think about how you want your coffee served from then on you can just make your own but the date alleviate the pressure from you even if he didn't want it that way and you accept it graciously because that's the generosity they're getting you to relieve you of the pressure of having to say would you please fix it this way oh wow cool yeah there's so many layers of complexity to japan's culture that's all that's a month that well that's a whole series of shows for next year while even a chef for a long time what would be something that in the year in the realm of being a master chef going from the being taught japanese in the office it was some french i carryover what what take your take you to your favorite style of the play setting now i thinks my love simplicity and food such il might my mother she stupid a lot of things but were really great fresh ingredients if it wasn't steered my father was a big fisher and fishman and hunter and so we had a lot of wild game he had we always had a ton of venison backstrap a lot of rabbits a lot of fish so everything is very simple when we went camping my father did take stuff for dinner he would hunted or efficient while a fish will also describe the pressure then a joke yeah yeah tv show now yesterday i really afraid survive as their grills at this time you shop for breakfast but you a loser it was very simple food so you take out lemons potatoes salt pepper and onion and so if if you cut trout then he to be slice of the potato and onion stuff inside with a couple of wedges lemon slices lemon salt-and-pepper and then wrap it will a pat of butter there wrapped up in tinfoil turn on the fire you know if there is other game to be had than it was you super simple or boiled potatoes and simple fixings and then salt-and-pepper on one of the game and so these really clean simple flavors for me i really would identify with any candidate that you can't really elevate that sure with a few adjustments but really being able to identify the main component like the center of the play item the protein if you can't taste what it's supposed to taste like i'm not sure what the point is sure will will today you just unit of joining us because you had just left a gigantic gathering that you are asked to basically help map out how do you know whenever you have so many mouths to feed that you know i'm going to be able to put together this coming plate to serve this this type of convention or do they give you parameters of what they do and don't want hello hello yeah so i'm to make so many development or menu yeah menu development or menu selection for any large parties very very critical because you have to think about if you have have multiple selections especially then what is the em what is the time to plate each item on a plated is his buffet mean all that comes into play i've done parties as large as 2100 people we get i work for a company in houston and we get a large plated dinner for the md anderson cancer research center answer hospital is so wheat we did 2100 people seated but the preparation for that took a week but nothing is really cooked until needed some things are made today before but not cooked until that day but all the proteins like all the tenderloins all the seabass so there are 1100 pieces seabass and 1400 piece of tenderloin while the kennels were hole we had to cut them i i had cut the measure but yeah that's that was we we all that gets cooked in ovens lined out inside of this big giant makeshift kitchen that's 20,000 ft.² and then we had 16 ovens in there like big commercial ovens do you feel like that your principles and how you wanted to live you want to deliver good health for people through the way that they eat that sometimes you get compromised because it gets so big yeah i mean hat so there are ways to dragon simplicity is number one pitcher and then limiting your your menu to items that fit your your desires and what you want to give to people and bring people in the hospitality industry you can't compromise that so only serving things that you may look for an alternate approaching so if they couldn't afford the that tenderloin we could do something like baseball saker you know tri-tip or something like that site to get a similar quality product just not as expensive i think that's that's part of the creativity that chefs have to work with nowadays is planning for and like an upcoming season we change menus to the four times a year restaurants so you're primarily doing this right now for your work also i do that yeah i mean ii will this is your this is my baby i want to get into that as this is how did you end up here doing a digital show but friend will talk about sorry love you so much anyway but the planning phase is really what it is yet to be very organized and there's a science to you know how many pieces everything you need what the portion sizes and what your standard batch size recipe see to scale that up although there can be complications or because salt doesn't scale directly other some other components like oil don't care they don't scale you know it's not exponential it's not like six times this equals that know if the scale somethings back and skipping some something so what i love about this is that you're talking zach the kind of leads into the first part of the show but this is how i cook i view it more as a science and i want to know what this and you're like i don't i didn't have a grandmother with a marble light in her mouth inside yeah so like now at the stage like i have a really i really enjoy quickbooks us all so excited that isabella went something cookbook i got bobby flay's cookbook which is that one on the quick side note is that the ill be like now add the sausage you like got it and then you turn to page 20 like that sauce is 50 and so there is a very famous book book called the the reese's gag gastronomy great and and there's another one by written by august escoffier who who really founded modern french cuisine right in the way that they cooking french kitchens and what happens it'll say like a cookie was a shock which is its sea scallops with marty athos or something right when he says cc the scalp recipe and it says okay now seat recipes 42 918 when you go to the buyer the year but is like 97 steps and then you have the mornay sauce is like when yeah whatever whatever size you are making is like 467 steps and you can't make it you can't story cold as beheld hot and fresh i mean it's just it's so complicated i was like okay that was go back on the shelf and maybe never adult ever dust the back off again i read it religiously 1000 cal you have a terrible cook and sometimes whenever i want to cook and i'm learning to tip these says certain things together if i see that there's a whole another mess of steps to make one ingredient i usually light which is not have any this it's it's changing out the menu the item is off the menu are going to do something well and that's part of the so i'll say on the show sometimes i don't i don't do show prep well i crept much better for life in restaurants than i do life on the radio sure and sometimes i get half with your essay like this make sense now that in the night so i spent a minute research demo i did next he read the recipe i just assume that this is what they meant because this is the type recipe so pre-reading the recipe knowing the ingredients in the methodology they're coming up are really important during the prep work will before we end up rounding out the last is our since you are one of the main producers for the spoony digital radio station we will get to why you ended up joining spoony

phobia about putting something phallic looking right up to your mouth and show a smile and wave smiling way to be okay :-) how these on an emory better nothing ice not well we left off this last half-hour basically talking about your journey on how to become a chef and where you been we learned that he spoke japanese and german hello the spanish and if he traveled and and it the age of five was able to close a cow: yes tied off time off dear: close to a man climbing up the oh my goodness that's like everything but the last half-hour makes me just feel bad about myself wanting you bring your homework for kindergarten and also to maybe climb the cow instead of a ladder knife in her hand and run around your neck you will tell us a little bit more about your journey now to rejoin here the next for some in the next half-hour you have moved into not just shiftwork but you've also been exploring cbd so i know you got a story behind it what in the world brought a chef is now on a digital radio station to explore cbd well just because he was my was my hero back in high school not really know because my my mother died in a diabetic appeared my father passed of pancreatic cancer and my mom died 01 and about that time i actually heard about that they discovered cbd and that was mid 80s i think when they discover that they were really starting to realize that while they made a big push medical cannabis was now legal in in california working on colorado and so i was just fascinated by that how that worked in the body i i don't like the psychotropic effects of of kinsey's audience is the antiaging specific because you know as a chef i always want to fill a coming control yeah that's that personality so i i really am i never really partook in it but when i found out about that that cds and how they affect the body i got became fascinated and so i just i got involved in a business that was related data in and i'm actually a partner in medical cannabis related business and in an tactic, and in massachusetts but we do a lot of really high cbd extremely low thc strains and stuff like that that's cool so my my experience the reason why i'm so into cds that you know i kinda had a heroes journey where i saw some incredible fact did you have anything like that happen yeah so i you and i think i cacti brushed over that little bit with my children but so my son and daughter have a i'm a 20 else on an essential daughter my son was 12 he kept having these ankle injuries playing soccer and he was trying to get into that a lick big development pool and kinda girl that way anyway so about the third time we took him in for ankle sprain in like six months we took him to specialist but i trust and she does i is really long high arches and his ankles are kinda rolled out he think he has cmt like cmt i don't cmts but so charcot-marie-tooth syndrome causes degradation of the neural pathways between and in the in extremity skin it causes type of neural what neuropathy peripheral neuropathy measure and what happens with that and that that the small muscles start to weaken the bone structure starts to deform so a lot of children or or adults with that with cmt will have like a limp wrist were that the wrist turns in and out a little that is truly painful it can be and will actually ache it can be painful but in this case you have to start to lose sensation so my son at 12 is about between 17 increased 18% deficient in the pass-through of you know the impulse from elbow to fingertips and needed toe okay so after testing their likely something that you can do just keep them strong become a fiscal therapy there's no treatment for its tenets genetic so over time my daughter started getting injuries and my son went off to a 2 am text dammit 18 and as as he was like a 18 a week i think his birthday just to curry start school and he was competitive tennis players i know you have a tennis person family and when a debtor where the antennas from the bottom that's right that's right that's right state championship anyway he was having ankle injuries there so when he came out of that that program the only thing i found i done thousands of hours of research looking for anything that could help them in the only true they say is stay strong be active don't get fat that's the three ways that you treat yourself boxers there's nothing else that they've known to to cause any actually to delay the effects of it if if if it is to progress further than staying strong and healthy and so he was very active but i found this this article the cds actually on that while website that i shared with you called echo connection.org and i did some reading i called some friends i talked to guy another dr. physician california anyway so i just i order my said look you take this twice a day and let see what happens and not only did his focus on his schoolwork away up and his grade started to get better six months let lesson six was later we took him to the texas anam research facility where they do studies on neck back and spine injuries but they also do some neural testing and things like neurological testing so first date they deliver the jet they did not look to the genetic marker on that wednesday we know he has it so what they did do a stated a more comprehensive testing on the neural pathways than he had originally the first two times and it was back to hundred percent so now before he was down he said 1718% he's probably got 25% by the time we took in it by the time he went at this time to be tested so i'm gonna kick that up and break something the results we got scolded for i now i do not migrate a hearing and i just want to be a rock star please not constant today this is my season recap though your son that the biggest change in imago simply does adding this evening i was the only change made the only change that was made in his diet and i was very very he's a very clean eater he actually started cooking his own food he was off his meal ticket at school and he saves on a very at enthusiastic weight training program that he designed himself and so but that was the only thing that changes diet and exercise regimen at all we will be look at this if you realize that charcot-marie-tooth syndrome affects the nerves and we know the cbd of the endo cannabinoid system is deeply rooted in the nerves then when that you start decreasing that inflammatory process and what i love is that you just said the key here is to changes.we know that food can be just like medicine and it can actually help out so here we have a college student it's on cbd and eating his own food not eating on diet plan that's amazing and he been well i mean an end at home he was a very clean eaters while he's like the one person the family does like desserts he won't eat cookie dough like anything with frosting on it very low sugar intake refined sugar like fruit didn't live on it measures none none that i'm aware of it i would like to ask a question he has them his hands and feet are always cold but he does have hair side of the follicles can't really thinking that you can go here with any without any ennui that i thought it might be circulatory service account because there's little knowledge syndrome 90 there were to get a little cold and you your it's an autoimmune it's component of autoimmune disease were your
