Abigail was most familiar with The Strokes' fourth album, Angles, featuring the epic opening track Machu Picchu. Abigail read into the lyrics of Soma trying to find a connection to the fictional drug from Brave New World. Barry shared that there is an actual drug called Soma (Carisoprodol), a muscle relaxant with addictive potential! Neither Barry or Abigail believed that the band was referencing the lingerie company of the same name! Abigail compared the meaningful comma in Alone, Together to that in Take a Break from Hamilton.

Gordon Raphael is best known for producing Is This It and Room On Fire by The Strokes and Regina Spektor's ingenious Soviet Kitsch. He was born in New York, grew up in Seattle, and now lives in West Yorkshire, UK. From the age of 13, Gordon has been a keyboard player and later became obsessed with analog synthesizers, recording, and songwriting. His band Sky Cries Mary played a form of tribal space rock, with a 1960s-style multi-projector light show during the grunge scene in Seattle. This summer (2024) he released his 12th solo album, now streaming worldwide. Gordon's memoir, The World is Going To Love This (Up From The Basement With THE STROKES) was published in London by Wordville Press in 2022. Stories in his book include meeting Wendy Carlos and Dr. Robert Moog, detailed conversations from the recording sessions for Is This It, working with Ian Brown, Skin, The Libertines, Ian Astbury, and many others. Gordon has always taken a unique approach in his musical tastes as well as his production methods— which have kept him well outside of the traditional music industry!

Taking initial inspirations from '70s New Yorkers like Blondie and Lou Reed and combining that love of hooky pop rock with the aesthetics of Britpop, the band took the Indie scene by Storm in the early 2000s. Albums like 'Is This It' and 'Room on Fire' and singles like the smash hit 'Last Nite' propelled the band into the charts and the tabloids. An immediate influence on the rock scene, emerging bands as the decade went on like The Killers and Arctic Monkeys would tout the Strokes as some of their biggest influences.

Have you ever gotten exactly what you wanted, it hasn't satisfied you the way you thought, and you've wondered, Is This It?For 4 weeks we will be journeying through the book of Ecclesiastes, and we would love for you to join us! This is a book about a wise preacher who was given so much in life- wisdom, pleasures, experiences, so much more-and found that these things in and of themselves, were empty. Through a human lens, the preacher shows us that life is like a vapor or breath; we are shown that life is fleeting, hard to understand, and cannot be controlled!But, because of God, we can find meaning and thankfulness for all things in life through a God-perspective.The preacher in Ecclesiastes was willing to ask the hard questions. Questions that many of us might be afraid to ask but have wondered deep in our heart. But these questions can lead us to meaning, deep and eternal meaning that is found only in Jesus.Recommended Resources:Book of Ecclesiastes Summary | Watch an Overview Video (bibleproject.com)Ecclesiastes Bible Reading Plan: She loves bibleBetter: How Jesus Satisfies the Search for... by Chaddick, Tim (amazon.com)Find More on Abiding Free:Instagram: @abidingfreeCheck out our Website HEREContact: abidingfree@gmail.com

Today's Podcast is "Gospel Grace" taken from Voice of Truth January 2022 edition 7, titled "Is This It?" by author Anita Setran.   May you know the meaning of Jesus in your life and that there is way more to life than what you see right now.   ****    I wonder what I am going to be when I grow up.   Did you ever think or say this when you were young? Or maybe, like me, you have continued to say it year after year, through your teens, twenties, thirties, forties, and now, for me, knocking on fifty's door.   Jesus has always been the center of my world. At the age of 16, I dedicated my life to full-time ministry and have now served in full-time missions for 24 years. I brought up my children in full-time ministry.  Very similar to how I was raised. I've had the privilege of leading young men and women, training and sending people on outreaches, and investing in new ministries. I am grateful for the life I've lived, and yet through it all, I still found myself thinking, I wonder what I am going to be when I grow up. So, I prayed, God, have your way in my life.   It's not that I haven't lived a full life. I got married at 20 to my best friend, and we will celebrate our 30th anniversary in September. We have three beautiful children. Our eldest son is now married to a beautiful, Christian young lady. Our middle daughter has just graduated from college, making the Dean's List every semester. And our youngest daughter, Kiersten, is our very special gift that we get to keep forever! Our precious baby girl just turned 18, and she has Down Syndrome.   In the depths of my heart, I always knew, yet also feared, that I would have a child with special needs. You see, I had three precious uncles who each had special needs and learning disabilities. They were not diagnosed during their childhood, but it was evident that they were different. However, they were special. And they were mine. They loved me unconditionally, and I loved them. I knew that my childhood years of living near them, caring for them, and protecting them had prepared me for this divine task of special needs motherhood.   Kiersten needed open-heart surgery at nine weeks old to repair a very large hole in her heart. Just days after the surgery, while still in the hospital, she split open her sternum bone due to severe vomiting, requiring a second surgery to open her chest and repair the sternum. In the months to come, her heart healed perfectly. Over the next eight years, however, Kiersten would require seven additional surgeries for her hearing and other needs. It felt like the doctor appointments, lab work, and hospital visits would never end. Eventually, however, things settled down, and life continued. I wondered, Is this it? Is this my calling, my purpose?? We prayed, God's will be done.   Years later, we marched as a family in Washington DC at the March For Life with a group called KIDS, Keep Infants With Down Syndrome. It was wonderful and fulfilling. We participated in this event a few consecutive years, and I wondered, Is this it? Is this what I have been waiting for? We prayed and trusted God with each open door.   In 1992, my father, Nick Savoca, founded a new ministry called Prayer Stations. It is a profoundly simple concept. A red and white banner printed with the words “Prayer Station” is hung above a white table and displayed on a sidewalk so that pedestrians approaching from either direction can see it. We started this ministry in New York City to provide free prayer to anyone in need. It's disarming - who doesn't need prayer? After all, prayer and God's faithfulness were the themes of our lives.   Immediately following the destruction of the World Trade Center in New York City by terrorists on 9/11/2001, Prayer Stations expanded its ministry to rally Christians from around the country and the world to come and pray for our fellow New Yorkers. We set up as many as 14 Prayer Stations around the perimeter of Ground Zero and had them available six days a week for a full year following the devastating events. As a ministry, we prayed for over 50,000 people in that year alone and saw more than 3,000 individuals give their lives to Christ. Miracles happened on the streets. Prayer really does change things.   In the years that followed, we continued to use this amazing tool of Prayer Stations in New York City, praying for the needs of people and witnessing salvations and other miracles that happened before our very own eyes. In addition, churches and ministries that had served with us during the year following 9/11 began to reach out and ask if they could purchase a Prayer Station for their own communities. At that point, we began to manufacture Prayer Stations to send around the country. We also had the banners translated into 12 different languages as requests came in from around the world.   As a leader in our ministry, I trained young people and sent them out on the mission field all over the globe. It was beautiful, yet often challenging. I was honored to mentor young men and women and see lives transformed. And I wondered, Is this it? Is this my life's calling? So I prayed and asked the Lord, Is this the thing? Is this what I have been praying for?   Then this past summer, 2021, my husband and I almost lost our lives to Covid. People were praying for us all over the world. It's a long and miraculous story, which you can read about by going to our website, www.sparknewlife.com. Through it, God opened more doors for ministry - only this time, instead of asking my usual question (Is this it?), I finally began to see how it was ALL IT! I saw how God had woven this beautiful pattern of lessons and experiences into my life. I had been fulfilling my purpose all along.   He carried me when I was weak. He opened new doors of opportunities when I least expected it. He healed our daughter's heart. He challenged us to trust His faithfulness and step out into new avenues of ministry. He gave us back our lives, and in turn, we will spend every day to our last breath living for Him and doing whatever the next assignment happens to be. We have been living out His purposes every single day!   This is what I know: God has a purpose for your life. My favorite life scripture is Jeremiah 29:11 “'For I know the plans I have for you,' declares the Lord, ‘plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you a hope and a future.'” (NIV)   The Bible also says in Jeremiah 1:5, “Before I formed you in the womb I knew you, before you were born I set you apart; I have appointed you a prophet to the nations.” (NIV)   Wow! The God of the universe loves you so much and has a purpose for your life - whether you have been aware of Him throughout your life or have been running from Him for as long as you can remember. Deuteronomy 31:6 says, “Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid or terrified because of them, for the Lord your God goes with you; He will never leave you or forsake you.” (NIV)   Genesis 1:26-27 tells us that God created us in His image and likeness. Webster's Dictionary says that an image is a duplicate of something else, and that to be made in the likeness of someone else means you possess many, but not all, the characteristics of that person. Only humans are created in God's image and likeness. We are daughters of the creator of the universe, and we possess His characteristics. He has given us a soul, a spirit, the desire for relationship, free will, reign over the earth, wisdom, knowledge, and the ability to discern between right and wrong. He's given us hearts of love and compassion.   It's easy to look around our world today and wonder whether or not these giftings are really given to everyone. The truth is that they are, but unfortunately, people have chosen, with their God-given free will, to turn from God and His purpose for their life. We have an enemy, and his name is Satan. Jesus says in John 10:10, “The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy; I came that they may have life and have it abundantly.” (NIV) Our enemy desires to destroy us, to take us off course from God's beautiful purpose for our lives. But don't forget about the end of that verse, which says that He came that we might have life - abundant life!!   I have good news! It's never too late for you - whether you are young or have been around for a while - God is a loving and redemptive God. He loves His kids, and you are welcome into His family because of the gift of His perfect and precious son, Jesus, who laid down His life as a sacrifice for our sins. We are told in John 3:16, “For God so loved the world, that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.” (NIV) We only need to accept His love and forgiveness, and He will make us whole and set us on a path of true purpose, one where you will never have to ask again, Is this it? Isn't our God awesome?!

Dan Gedman might be the smartest dude I've ever had a sit-down conversation with, and he certainly has the deepest voice of any I can recall, which is a batshit combo if you're in to running metrics on how stupid you think you might be.Whew.What a chat, though. I've never gone into an interview thinking I'll be less prepared than my guest, but never did I imagine feeling dumber and less knowledgable than a guest who didn't prepare at all! Yyyikes.Anyway, Dan is a really awesome dude. He just is. I hate to distill it down to that, but -- if we're being honest -- that's all any guy wants...is to be known and remembered as an awesome dude.Now, I'm obviously not married to Dan, and I'm not his business partner, but he has always been the nicest guy I run across. He's an A+ host with fine-tuned hospitality skills. He's a funny fellow, and -- well -- goddamn it if he doesn't know the shit out of his music.Christ.Dan's a son and a brother and a husband and a father to three and a business partner and a music-savvy cat, but he's also just...he's doing it right. I think. You know...from the outsider standpoint. He runs this thing called Liquid9. I'm still not sure what they do. They might traffic Russian mail-order brides (Note: Joke! It's a joke! Take it easy...), but I think they produce music videos, among other sleek, industry kinds of things.Regardless, Dan's for sure a have-back.I felt humbled having him on, and -- while we covered a few records -- there're for sure more where that came from, and I'm legit' excited about what our next visit might look like. The ones we touched on today include the following:Blood on the Tracks, Bob Dylan (1975)Outlandos d'Amour, The Police (1978)Tim, The Replacements (1985)Copper Blue, Sugar (1992)Midnight Marauders, A Tribe Called Quest (1993)Illmatic, Nas (1994)Heartbreaker, Ryan Adams (2000)Is This It, The Strokes (2001)I'm Wide Awake, It's Morning, Bright Eyes (2003)Black Sheep Boy, Okkervil River (2005)I'd be pleased as punch if you gave this conversation a listen. They don't get much better.One final note: I fuck up a lot on this thing.A lot.It's hard to focus on the questions and listen to the answers and keep the thing moving and be aware of the time and of every thing you have said on every other episode.Point being, I used to scoff like a little punk at podcasters for such things. And to hopefully make up for that, I want to point out my mistakes when I become aware of them. In this case, Dan wasn't the first guest with biological parents that're both still alive and together. Jason (episode #1) was, but...that was six months ago, and I'm an aging human.I'm far from perfect. Really far. If you know that and listen anyway, praise be to ye.Blessings.copyright disclaimer: I do not own the rights to the intro/outro audio samples.
