Alec Baldwin speaks with two genius musicians whose artistry has contributed to some of the most memorable songs of the sixties, seventies and eighties, leaving an indelible mark on the music world. Steve Gadd, one of the most influential drummers of all time, is known for bridging jazz, rock, and blues. He has been a studio musician for countless artists from Carly Simon to Aretha Franklin – and tours with musicians like Eric Clapton, James Taylor, Joe Cocker, as well as with his own outfit, The Steve Gadd Band. His artistry can be found on Paul Simon's “50 Ways To Leave Your Lover” and Steely Dan's “Aja.” Larry Carlton is a four-time Grammy winning jazz and rock guitarist who became famous for his work as a studio musician in the 1970s and 1980s. He has played in over 3,000 studio sessions with artists like Joni Mitchell, Steely Dan, Michael Jackson, Dolly Parton and many others. Rolling Stone named his contribution to Steely Dan's “Kid Charlemagne” one of the best guitar solos in rock music. Carlton is also renowned for his solo work and as a member of the jazz group The Crusaders and the smooth jazz band Fourplay.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Hot damn, we're BACK, baby! It's the premiere of the seventh season of That Week and this time we're hitting up the first episode of the second season of SNL for what turns out to be an important episode in a number of fashions. You get the final Land of Gorch sketch, a greasy Dan Aykroyd, the origins of the Antler Dance, three, count 'em, THREE James Taylor performances and hell, even Taylor Mead too. The gangs all here, man. Let's go!

Sometimes to save the world, you've got to punch a few dragons…When the planet is being eaten by interdimensional parasites who literally tear holes in reality, what do you do? If you're Charlie Chase, you dive headfirst into an interdimensional adventure. Charlie knows her calling is a weighty one, but she trusts her mentor's orders: Travel to another dimension, fix the tear, and get home to do it all over again.But when she gets stuck on an alternate Earth, she has to turn to the most unexpected of allies: a younger, more eccentric, more infamous version of the brilliant mind that sent her on her mission. This version of Vera Baum is as much socialite as scientist, who seems to embrace the notion that curiosity killed the cat, in the way that means she's determined to use up all nine of her lives blasting through a kaleidoscope of genre-bending realities. Things are going to get a lot worse before they get better, especially when they're pursued by reality-eating parasites and a biomechanical hound hellbent on killing Vera.Ladyhoppers is a genre-hopping, multiverse-spanning, madcap buddy comedy packed full of flaming zeppelins, coffee shop romances, car chases, dragon punching scientists, and more pirates than you can shake a multi-limbed death machine at. Grab your spacesuit, drink an espresso, and hold on tight—it's gonna be a bumpy ride!Buy the book from Wellington Square Bookshop - ​https://wellingtonsquarebooks.indiecommerce.com/book/9781954255951

When this episode was recorded, the writers and actors strikes were both still going strong with no end in sight, so resident keyboardist for the Jimmy Kimmell Show, Jeff Babko, was able to find time in his normally very busy schedule to rap with me. In fact, the Kimmell show is just a piece of his crowded schedule, which includes being the touring pianist on stage with Steve Martin and Martin Short, in addition to composing for movie scores like the new Weird Al biopic, Toy Story 4, Encanto, but also recording with James Taylor, Jason Mraz, Shelby Lynne, Simon Philips, Sheryl Crow-- not counting the folks he's played with on Kimmell. He's a funny man, driven to make music with whomever and in whatever forum is available, but usually includes incredible musicians like Vinnie Colaiuta, Jeff Coffin, Matt Chamberlain, Mark Isham and many more. He's a podcast host for the Caffeinated Keyboardist, owns his own studio Tudor Tones and is generally just busy because what in the hell else is there in this life but to make music. He's got a new record called The Libretto Show with bassist David Piltch and is generally just ready to rip at all times.

The Cobb Department of Transportation swiftly repaired the damaged beam, ensuring it was back in working order for rush hour. The driver of the rental truck was cited for disregarding numerous low clearance warnings, and their insurance will cover the repair costs. The covered bridge, built in 1872, is the county's sole remaining covered bridge still in use and is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. It has frequently experienced accidents due to its low clearance.…….Get more stories like this from mdjonline.com     STORY 2: Marietta parents debate book bans at school board meeting   At a recent Marietta school board meeting, parents discussed the controversial directive to remove "sexually explicit material" from schools. This directive had been approved in a previous work session without public comment. During the meeting, eight out of nine individuals who signed up for public comments addressed the directive. Five expressed gratitude for its passage, while three criticized it. The directive was passed with a 5-2 vote, with concerns raised about books' content in school libraries. Supporters argued for protecting students, while opponents emphasized the importance of diverse literature and the First Amendment. The debate reflects ongoing discussions about censorship and education in the community.   STORY 3: Repaving to start at Chattahoochee River trail parking lots   The Chattahoochee River National Recreation Area is embarking on a project to repave parking lots at four popular river spots: Akers Mill (West Palisades), Powers Island, Columns Drive, and Interstate North (Cochran Shoals). The project aims to address maintenance needs, enhance safety, and will result in temporary closures at each location during construction. Trails will remain open, with access from the Paces Mill unit during parking lot closures. The project, funded by the National Park Service Pavement Preservation Program, includes striping for traffic flow and improved signage, with an estimated completion date in December 2023.............…..(pause)   We have opportunities for sponsors to get great engagement on these shows.

As guitarist for the impossibly funky New Orleans band the Meters, Leo Nocentelli wrote an array of indelible riffs and songs; you've likely heard “Cissy Strut” in movies, TV promos and hip-hop samples, and “People Say,” from the great 1974 album Rejuvenation, is another of many classics. He also played on high-profile releases as a teenage session musician in New Orleans and later, with and without the Meters, on songs by Robert Palmer, Dr. John, Labelle (including “Lady Marmalade”) and Peter Gabriel. And while the Meters were on hiatus in 1971, Nocentelli wrote and recorded a James Taylor-inspired singer-songwriter album, Another Side, that sat for 50 years before a miraculous resolution. It's a helluva story.

New York City-based recording artist, Sam Sugarman is celebrating the forthcoming re-release of her debut EP, “Lion's Den” in the newest chapter of her artistry as a singer-songwriter. Delivered by grounding vocals reminiscent of Grace Slick (Jefferson Airplane), Sugarman's lyrics tempt the listener to journey afar and to use her music as the catalyst for internal awakening. Despite occasional sonic nods to legends like Joan Baez, Dolores O'Riordan (The Cranberries) and James Taylor, Sugarman remains a modern entity molded by her fascinating upbringing and promising future in the music industry. Sugarman's career exploits first garnered her acclaim from the bosom of her upbringing in Buffalo, New York. From local residencies to festivals and even having her music on the radio, Buffalo embraced Sugarman and endowed her with the Difference Maker Award. In 2019, she created “7-1-6 Music Gives Back” (Buffalo's area code) - designed to partner with nonprofits to raise money through benefit concerts. That same year, Sugarman and her team raised over $2,000 for the Holocaust Resource Center of Buffalo. While her sights are set worldwide, Sugarman continues to be grateful for the foundation laid in her hometown. As a young student with a penchant for opera and musical theater, Sugarman went on to study vocal performance at Carnegie Mellon. Her values around freedom of expression combined with the structure and technical skills gained in this chapter of her life propelled Sugarman forward with a career in music as a vocal instructor, helping other aspiring vocalists to hone their craft. The choice of occupation is precious to her as Sugarman seeks to make an impact on the singers she works with today, just as her late voice teacher inspired her throughout her life. With so much of the world to make an introduction to, Sugarman is elated by the possibilities left to unfold and the notion of all that's in store for the rest of 2023. Asked about what she hopes to achieve through her music, Sugarman says, “I hope to move listeners into someplace new - to help bring some presence and clarity where there may be hardship and turmoil.” Sugarman's next release will be available May 29th when she puts forth “Guinnevere”, a cover of the Crosby, Stills & Nash ethereal classic which the late, David Crosby wrote about three different loves of his life.

"When we were vacationing on Martha's Vineyard on two different occasions we went sailing off Martha's Vineyard, and James Taylor was a member of the crew. It wasn't such a great thing watching him work the ropes and the sails , although that was truly impressive -- though when we go to a calm sea-- he sang for us. And the stars were out, there was a moon out, and the water calm. It was something that none of us will ever forget."     Ah, summertime on Martha's Vineyard… Just as President Bill Clinton remembered – in 1997.   When he was president, Bill Clinton and his family often went to Martha's Vineyard for summer vacations.   What are family memories from those trips?

"Paradise Blue" The Seattle-based singer/songwriter Steven Cristol has had quite a career. Well, to be more specific, he's had several careers, but today we're going to talk about the musical one. We'll let him tell you his story but a little background is important before we get to the chat. The Georgia-born Cristol's adventure with music and the music industry found him with incredible highs, like getting a phone call from Harry Belafonte about recording one of his songs to some tough lows that he'll explain, but here's the thing about those lows--what made them so hard was that they came disguised as highs. In other words, it looked like smooth sailing, but then the ship capsized. The emotional whiplash an artist gets was detailed perfectly in our chat with actor Michael Charles Roman a few months back when he talked about booking a sitcom only to have his and everyone else's part recast. Well, this is the music side of that story and it's series of suckerpunches. But this chat is about more than that--it's about self belief, self preservation, and never putting art on the backburner for good. I love the story you're about to hear because it demonstrates the power of creativity and the beauty of art. Steven is a fabulous singer/songwriter whose compositions summon everyone from Jackson Browne to James Taylor. He wrote songs for Starship, Little River Band and Belafonte and for good reason--his precision and lyrical agility are effortless skills that should have made him millions and nearly did. Business strategy consultant, career coach, singer/songwriter and former Fortune 50 executive whose previous business books have been published in 11 languages. His latest book is an unorthodox guide to self-employment, written after more than three decades of successfully sustaining independent work. He also writes about solutions to environmental issues for leading media outlets focused on sustainable business practices. www.stevencristol.net www.bombshellradio.com www.stereoembersmagazine.com www.embersarts.com www.alexgreenonline.com Twitter: @emberseditor IG: @emberspodcast Email: editor@stereoembersmagazine.com

The event offers free pet adoptions as part of its annual effort to find permanent homes for shelter pets. The program includes music, local vendors, face painting, crafts, and other activities.

This achievement surpasses its previous record of 11 awards from the prior year. Recognized programs include the Mobile Food Distribution initiative, Black History Month exhibit, online donation app, and watershed cleanup aimed at combating water pollution. The county's mobile food program, initially established to address pandemic-related food security challenges, earned the Best in Category Achievement Award. Notably, the Volunteer Gwinnett project distributed over 1.5 million pounds of food to almost 50,000 households in under three years. These accomplishments highlight Gwinnett County's commitment to comprehensive community support. Story 3: homes Since the COVID-19 pandemic, rising real estate values and rents have strained budgets for homebuyers and renters. The U.S. saw a substantial increase in median home sales price, boosted by low interest rates and a strong pandemic economy. While rent prices remained restrained due to renter protections and assistance programs, they accelerated in 2021 and 2022. Despite a 13.2% decline in median home sale price in Q2 2023 from the peak of Q4 2022, housing supply remains critically low, contributing to high competition and prices. The scarcity stems from underinvestment in housing since the Great Recession, which was worsened by high inflation and construction costs. Builder confidence declined for 12 consecutive months in 2022, influenced by these factors. Nationally, Georgia is 10th for building the most new homes. We have opportunities for sponsors to get great engagement on these shows. Call 770.874.3200 for more info. We'll be right back   Break 2:   Slappey.- Tom Wages -  Obits   Story 4: taylor Bill Griese, known as Sweet Baby James, is a performer who travels the country giving solo concerts of James Taylor's iconic songs. Griese, a Nashville resident, has been doing this for about seven years. Despite being a dedicated Taylor fan, Griese's presentation is not a typical tribute band show, and he doesn't attempt to imitate Taylor's appearance or mannerisms. He performs Taylor's songs in his own style, without a visual component, focusing on sharing the music rather than the history of Taylor. Griese's concerts are interactive and include hits like "You've Got a Friend," "Sweet Baby James," and "Fire and Rain." He performs around 45 shows a year and values audience engagement. Sweet Baby James will perform at the Aurora Theatre located at the Lawrenceville Arts Center at 7:30 p.m. Tonight.   Story 5: king   "Beautiful: The Carole King Musical" is a production that tells the story of Carole King's early career and her success as a songwriter before becoming a solo artist. The musical covers her collaboration with songwriting partners like Gerry Goffin, Cynthia Weil, and Barry Mann, and features many of the hit songs she wrote, including "You've Got a Friend," "One Fine Day," and "The Loco-Motion." The musical, which opened on Broadway in 2014 and received Tony and Grammy Awards, is now being presented by the Aurora Theatre in Georgia. The lead role of Carole King is played by Bethany Irby, who also plays the piano during the performance. The show is described as a "jukebox musical" and is expected to resonate with audiences through its nostalgic songs and Carole King's inspiring journey.   Story 6: gbi Retired Deputy Director of Georgia Bureau of Investigation's (GBI) Investigative Division, Scott Dutton, has been appointed as GBI assistant director by Director Chris Hosey. In this role, Dutton will assist in overseeing GBI's investigative, scientific, information, and administrative services for the state. Dutton had a 32-year career with GBI, starting as a special agent in the Thomaston Regional Office and later serving in various roles within the agency, including handling drug enforcement units, being part of the Georgia Information Sharing and Analysis Center (GISAC), and serving as director of public affairs. Dutton's extensive law enforcement background and experience make him a valuable addition to the GBI leadership team.   We'll be back in a moment   Break 3:  ESOG – Ingles 9 - Lawrenceville   Story 7: Sports And now, Leah McGrath, corporate dietician at Ingles markets talks with us about foods that help with swollen feet   ***LEAH***   We'll have final thoughts after this. ****LEAH**** Break 4:  GCPS - Henssler 60 Thanks again for hanging out with us on today's Marietta Daily Journal podcast.

taken years to get Danny Kortchmar alone in the Game Changers guest seat, having paid us a couple of previous visits with his Immediate Family brothers. This Danny is kinder, gentler, and oh, so fun. He's been leaning more and more in this direction to my view since falling in love with Lisa Roy, even after surviving the devastating loss of her life. She was the love of his, and it appears she did him a world of lasting good. Danny will be the first to admit he can be serious and… cranky. No sign of that guy this evening… just great stories of some of the greatest musicians of our time, from one of them, all wonderfully, entertainingly, told. We may have even heard a few previously undocumented firsts… starting as a kid discovering early rock 'n roll, to very soon playing it, summering on Martha's Vineyard, and the early teenage friendship that would change his life. Jamie, as Kootch calls James Taylor, who talked him into some questionable behavior, then blamed him, classic! Not something I'd imagine or associate with sweet baby James. Their lifelong friendship, their musical collaboration, how it started, and why it ended. Meeting, working, and loving Peter Asher, Lou Adler, Carole King, Russ Kunkel, Leland Sklar, Waddy Wachtel, Linda Rondstadt, and Jackson Browne. The story behind Somebody's Baby. We talked about his extensive successful producing career (although he has a caveat which was fascinating to hear) - including Jon Bon Jovi, Billy Joel, Toto, and his extensive collaboration with Don Henley, the great and the tough of it. There are no endings with Kootch. Once family, always family. He remains close to all of them. And speaking of family, Danny spoke to the birth, development, and current state of affairs of The Immediate Family, his beloved creation. His frustration with the pandemic's impact and the conflicting work schedules of his brothers doesn't dampen his passion for their new album yet to drop, and their soon-to-be-released brilliant Denny Tedesco documentary, Immediate Family. There is remorse that Waddy Wachtel's commitment as Stevie Nick's musical director, a position he's held for 25 years will keep him from 5 scheduled live shows, but Danny did drop some news… The Cars Elliot Easton will be jumping in for those shows, certainly softening the blow. This time with Danny was a joyous romp through the musical soundtrack of so much of my life. His songs, and his playing, are forever etched in my heart and soul. The man sure do know how to rock 'n roll. Good God!

"The activists need to pay attention to mass awareness. Political change is a function of gaining political power through mass awareness, mass mobilization, and mass unification. And we're in a period on the left right now, which has happened in history before, where there's a lot of internal focus about the fairness of the processes within NGOs and activist organizations. And the legacy of racism in these organizations and gender and identity issues, all of which are essential and important and valid, but those are not the pathways to mass awareness and mass unity. If you overemphasize those kinds of issues, it's a kind of sectarianism, which is the opposite of how you unify people to get political power. If you don't assemble majority support - majority sentiment doesn't mean everybody - it means majority, then you can't take power. And if you can't get power, guess what? You can't help the vulnerable. You can't help the oppressed. This is, like most things in life, a question of balance. If you overfocus on the legitimate feelings and plight of subgroups of the population, by necessity, you won't establish what Reverend Jesse Jackson used to call the Rainbow Coalition. And without the Rainbow Coalition, you don't win. So, what I hope is that the scientists and the activist community can pay as much attention to cognitive science as they do to climate science. And then we'll get somewhere definitely."How can we effectively communicate that we're moving beyond climate change to a state of climate crisis? The trapped heat energy on Earth is equal to a million Atomic bombs going off every single day. Today we talk to someone who's been mobilizing the public mind for over 50 years. David Fenton, named “one of the 100 most influential PR people” by PR Week and “the Robin Hood of public relations” by The National Journal, founded Fenton in 1982 to create communications campaigns for the environment, public health, and human rights. For more than five decades he has pioneered the use of PR, social media, and advertising techniques for social change. Fenton started his career as a photojournalist in the late 1960s – his book Shots: An American Photographer's Journal was published in 2005. He was formerly director of public relations at Rolling Stone magazine and co-producer of the No-Nukes concerts in 1979 at Madison Square Garden with Bruce Springsteen, Bonnie Raitt, James Taylor, Jackson Browne, and other artists. He has also helped create JStreet, Climate Nexus, the Death Penalty Information Center, and Families for a Future. He sold Fenton a few years ago to work on climate change full time.

We probably should have had him on a long time ago, but better late than never. Dr. Phil Maffetone is a coach, author, innovator, and founder of the 180 Formula and the MAF test for heart rate training.

Donald Trump has another day in court for his third indictment, this time for his monthslong actions leading up to January 6, 2020 to overturn the results of the election. How are Republicans responding? And how are his GOP 2024 challengers messaging this to their advantage? Plus- the House Oversight Committee peels back the layers of Hunter Biden's foreign business dealings and what knowledge or involvement President Biden may have had in it. And in this week's Meaningful Moment, Alice and Maria share darling messages about our darling dogs, and words of inspiration from music legend James Taylor.

And it sounds like a cliche, but it really is true that history moves in pendulums and waves. And whatever is happening today is not going to last. It will change. So you have periods of concentrations of wealth and power, and then you have periods of rebellion. And I'm quite sure we're headed for another period of rebellion. You can see it a little bit now in the labor strife in the United States and the strikes. You can certainly see it in the massive demonstrations in France and Israel. Excessive concentrations of power breeds rebellion, and that's just inevitable. And the climate crisis is going to cause a lot of rebellion as people figure this out. And I think it's coming very soon, actually, because as you've noticed, the weather is getting very bad. It's become a non-linear accelerating phenomenon. And people will wake up to that. I just hope they wake up in time."https://davidfentonactivist.comwww.simonandschuster.com/books/The-Activists-Media-Handbook/David-Fenton/9781647228668https://fenton.comX / twitter @dfentonIG @dfenton1 facebook.com/davidfentonactivistwww.creativeprocess.info www.oneplanetpodcast.orgIG www.instagram.com/creativeprocesspodcastAll photographs © 1968-2022 David Fenton

If you overfocus on the legitimate feelings and plight of subgroups of the population, by necessity, you won't establish what Reverend Jesse Jackson used to call the Rainbow Coalition. And without the Rainbow Coalition, you don't win. So, what I hope is that the scientists and the activist community can pay as much attention to cognitive science as they do to climate science. And then we'll get somewhere definitely."https://davidfentonactivist.comwww.simonandschuster.com/books/The-Activists-Media-Handbook/David-Fenton/9781647228668https://fenton.comX / twitter @dfentonIG @dfenton1 facebook.com/davidfentonactivistwww.creativeprocess.info www.oneplanetpodcast.orgIG www.instagram.com/creativeprocesspodcastAll photographs © 1968-2022 David Fenton

How can we effectively communicate that we're moving beyond climate change to a state of climate crisis? The trapped heat energy on Earth is equal to a million Atomic bombs going off every single day. Today we talk to someone who's been mobilizing the public mind for over 50 years. David Fenton, named “one of the 100 most influential PR people” by PR Week and “the Robin Hood of public relations” by The National Journal, founded Fenton in 1982 to create communications campaigns for the environment, public health, and human rights. For more than five decades he has pioneered the use of PR, social media, and advertising techniques for social change. Fenton started his career as a photojournalist in the late 1960s – his book Shots: An American Photographer's Journal was published in 2005. He was formerly director of public relations at Rolling Stone magazine and co-producer of the No-Nukes concerts in 1979 at Madison Square Garden with Bruce Springsteen, Bonnie Raitt, James Taylor, Jackson Browne, and other artists. He has also helped create JStreet, Climate Nexus, the Death Penalty Information Center, and Families for a Future. He sold Fenton a few years ago to work on climate change full time. He is the author of The Activist's Media Handbook: Lessons From 50 Years as a Progressive Agitator."So a lot has been corporatized. That is certainly true, but not everything. And it sounds like a cliche, but it really is true that history moves in pendulums and waves. And whatever is happening today is not going to last. It will change. So you have periods of concentrations of wealth and power, and then you have periods of rebellion. And I'm quite sure we're headed for another period of rebellion. You can see it a little bit now in the labor strife in the United States and the strikes. You can certainly see it in the massive demonstrations in France and Israel. Excessive concentrations of power breeds rebellion, and that's just inevitable. And the climate crisis is going to cause a lot of rebellion as people figure this out. And I think it's coming very soon, actually, because as you've noticed, the weather is getting very bad. It's become a non-linear accelerating phenomenon. And people will wake up to that. I just hope they wake up in time."https://davidfentonactivist.comwww.simonandschuster.com/books/The-Activists-Media-Handbook/David-Fenton/9781647228668https://fenton.comX / twitter @dfentonIG @dfenton1 facebook.com/davidfentonactivistwww.creativeprocess.info www.oneplanetpodcast.orgIG www.instagram.com/creativeprocesspodcastAll photographs © 1968-2022 David Fenton

"The linguists and the cognitive scientists have established that as you're exposed to language from childhood and over your lifetime, it forms literal circuits in your brain. They call them frames. So in order to communicate successfully with people, the best way is to use language that activates existing frames. So for example, when I say we need to get to net zero by 2050, nobody knows what I'm talking about. There's no existing circuitry to process that language. What the hell is net zero? Is that less than zero? Now, if I say we have to stop pollution because pollution is heating the planet, we've formed a blanket of pollution around the earth that is trapping heat that used to go back out to space. And then everybody knows what I'm talking about because they know what pollution is. That's an existing mental frame. And by the way, no one will defend pollution. You won't find anyone that thinks pollution is a good thing. So it's a universally negative frame in all languages. And then when I say it's like a blanket around the earth, there's another existing mental frame. Everybody knows what a blanket is and how it works. It traps your body heat so you don't get cold. So that's what we're doing to the earth. And yes, all that trapped heat energy on Earth has to go somewhere. So it goes to create stronger storms and droughts and floods and melts the ice."How can we effectively communicate that we're moving beyond climate change to a state of climate crisis?

"The activists need to pay attention to mass awareness. Political change is a function of gaining political power through mass awareness, mass mobilization, and mass unification. And we're in a period on the left right now, which has happened in history before, where there's a lot of internal focus about the fairness of the processes within NGOs and activist organizations. And the legacy of racism in these organizations and gender and identity issues, all of which are essential and important and valid, but those are not the pathways to mass awareness and mass unity. If you overemphasize those kinds of issues, it's a kind of sectarianism, which is the opposite of how you unify people to get political power. If you don't assemble majority support - majority sentiment doesn't mean everybody - it means majority, then you can't take power. And if you can't get power, guess what? You can't help the vulnerable. You can't help the oppressed. This is, like most things in life, a question of balance.
