Every time I go into a Wyoming bar, I'm pretty sure I'll come out with a funny story. Did you hear the one about the coyote and badger that walked into a bar? No? I guess you'll have to listen to the episode. Today features Julianne Couch, author of Jukeboxes and Jackalopes. We giggled a lot and got surprisingly philosophical - I promise we weren't drinking! She guides us through a lot of Wyoming bars, mostly small town ones and we discussed what makes Wyoming bar culture unique. Hartville is the Dot on the Map - it's Wyoming's oldest continuously populated settler town, which features the oldest bar in Wyoming, the historic Miner's and Stockmen's Saloon. Check out the shownotes for more details!

That Does Suit Madame, a Podcast about "Are You Being Served?"
Congratulations to Her Majesty The Queen Elizabeth II on her Platinum Jubilee! The Channel 5 documentary “Are You Being Served? Secrets and Scandals” - we can't wait to see it. Which do you love more: the original AYBS or AYBS-Again/Grace & Favour? Our poll shows an even split! Joanne Heywood, who played Miss. Lovelock, is unanimous in her choice of “Are You Being Served Again” / “Grace & Favour”. Professor Jeff defines “skeuomorph” thanks to a Unanimous Superman's tip. A live #1 hit with George Michael and Elton John. What would happen if an AI listened to every AYBS episode and wrote a new script? @KeatonPatti on twitter did this with Hallmark Christmas movies and we read a hilarious example. Mr. Brandon uncontrollably giggles again. Our “Moment of Butch”. What exactly -is- Mrs. Slocombe's foundation? And she wants to know exactly where that pub is… Jukeboxes. Air quality in the UK and the disaster in the 1952 called “The Great Smog”. A walking billboard for Reebok running gear. Mr. Humphries finds that 4 inches is more than acceptable. What does “ship shape and Bristol fashion” mean? A surprising slavery connection to a West England port city. Fun with non-sequiturs. “He really gets on my wick” = Cockney rhyming slang. Why can Mr. Humphries handle the Goblin vacuum? The political stunt from Boris Johnson to revert the UK away from the metric system to the old fashioned Imperial measurement system. Pulling a date/pulling a customer. The Benny Hill-like scene with Captain Peacock and the lawn mower. Mr. Humphries and Mavis cry together over cutting onions. A random Paul Lynde impression! Check out graceandfavour.net! Teseling the dirty sheets! Wendy Richard almost breaks character and laughs at the kitchen table. Lots of call backs to the original AYBS series in this episode! Cleg-Hampton, played by Maggie Holland, is past it. Mr. Volpone, played by Gorgon Peters, was in the original AYBS episode, who is amazing at playing an off-balanced British Rail waiter. The 3 new roles in AYBSA/Grace & Favour really added a lot to the new series- a tribute to Joanne Heywood, Fleur Bennett, and Billy Burden! Are there any clips of John Inman around from his PBS promotional tour in from the 1990s?

Carolla, quick. Adam's apple orchard. Window tint in Los Angeles. More motorcycle repair adventures. If I like pina coladas. More like digital PUKEbox. The Nirvana baby. I was "left" behind by(e) her.
For many of us, the Jukebox was the center of our social life while we grew up. We hung out wherever we found the music. At the pizza shop (for me it was Tony & Ann's), the ice cream stand (Doc Davis'), and the soda fountain (The Rexall). We spent a lot of nickels, dimes, and quarters. Jukeboxes, and the songs we played, sent a message to our friends and the world, “These are the songs we love”. And, of course, we were always trying to impress the girls by playing the “coolest” songs. Listen here, and remember our Hit Parade. This episode includes:1) Mess Around by Ray Charles2) Rum And Coca-Cola by The Andrews Sisters3) Jo-Ann by The Playmates4) Tell Me Why by The Four Aces (Featuring Al Alberts)5) Matilda, Matilda by Harry Belafonte6) The Jones Boy by The Mills Brothers 7) Cross Over The Bridge by Patti Page8) Don't Let The Stars Get In Your Eyes by Perry Como9) Since I Met You Baby by Ivory Joe Hunter10) Teardrops from My Eyes by Ruth Brown11) A Very Precious Love by The Ames Brothers12) The Birth Of The Blues by Sammy Davis Jr.13) In the Middle of an Island by Tony Bennett14) Wonderful!

What has always been known in the U.S. as the Hot 100 had existed for nearly fifteen years as numerous charts, tracking and ranking the most popular singles of the day in several areas. During the 1940s and 1950s, popular singles were ranked on three significant charts: • Best Sellers in Stores • Most Played by Jockeys • Most Played in Jukeboxes On June 17, 1957, Billboard discontinued the Most Played in Jukeboxes chart, as the popularity of jukeboxes waned and radio stations incorporated more and more rock-oriented music into their playlists. The week ending July 28, 1958 was the final publication of the Most Played By Jockeys. On August 4, 1958, Billboard premiered one main all-genre singles chart: the Hot 100. The Hot 100 quickly became the industry standard and Billboard discontinued the Best Sellers In Stores chart on October 13, 1958. The Billboard Hot 100 is still the standard by which a song's popularity is measured in the United States. The Hot 100 is ranked by radio airplay audience impressions as measured by Nielsen, sales data compiled by Nielsen (both at retail and digitally) and streaming activity provided by online music sources.

During the 1940s and 1950s, popular singles were ranked on three significant charts: • Best Sellers in Stores • Most Played by Jockeys • Most Played in Jukeboxes On June 17, 1957, Billboard discontinued the Most Played in Jukeboxes chart, as the popularity of jukeboxes waned and radio stations incorporated more and more rock-oriented music into their playlists. The week ending July 28, 1958 was the final publication of the Most Played By Jockeys. On August 4, 1958, Billboard premiered one main all-genre singles chart: the Hot 100. The Hot 100 quickly became the industry standard and Billboard discontinued the Best Sellers In Stores chart on October 13, 1958. The Billboard Hot 100 is still the standard by which a song's popularity is measured in the United States. The Hot 100 is ranked by radio airplay audience impressions as measured by Nielsen, sales data compiled by Nielsen (both at retail and digitally) and streaming activity provided by online music sources.

Florentine Grelier is a filmmaker from Paris who specializes in animation. Her animated short My Jukebox premiered at the 2020 Sundance Film Festival. My Jukebox explores the relationship between Florentine and her father (who sells and repairs Jukeboxes at the famous “Le Puz” Flea Market in Paris) through the metaphor of a juke-box, using multiple forms of media, including paper dolls, paint on glass, and computer animation. What you will learn: How long it takes to produce just one minute of animated film. What the production process looks like for animated films like My Jukebox. How Florentine obtains funding to make animated films. How Florentine was able to premiere her animated short at the Sundance Film Festival. What opportunities Sundance has opened up for her as an artist. What formative childhood experiences influenced her as an artist. How teaching animation gives her the financial freedom to work in an artistic medium that would not otherwise allow her to survive financially. What inspired her to write, produce, and direct My Jukebox.

After the horrific attacks on Muslims in Christchurch, New Zealand, an image of a Christian in England standing guard outside his local mosque went viral. Andrew Graystone was the good witness. Speaking in a press tent at Greenbelt festival, he talks to Beer Christianity about power and whether the Church needs it. Also on the podcast, in the pub: a man called Drabs and a woman called Laura talk about losing our confidence in evangelism, how beer once funded the Baptist Missionary Society (but sadly doesn't anymore), power and light stuff like universalism. Beer flows. Jukeboxes get loud. Truth is mumbled to power. Thanks to Greenbelt for organising the interview. You guys are lovely.
Fleet Town vs Slimbridge (16/2/2019)Sean and Gus visit leafy Hampshire, and come away with more questions than answers:- Could a podcast prove the afterlife?- Should footballers be role models?- If Fleet is the best place to live in the UK, then how come Fleet Service Station is only the 63rd best?Fortunately, they managed to distract themselves from these issues by visiting a fantastic (but now closed) jukebox shop (although it still operates online - see details below) and Fleet Town; a very friendly football club then struggling due to the FA's last minute decision to switch them into a more travel intensive league. This left the club going into the season without players, without management and without sponsorship. What does all this mean?

It’s time to take another look at the highest grossing movie of 1990...Ghost! Erika and Paul spend a fair amount of time debating between Patrick Swayze and Tony Goldwyn, but they manage to carve out a few minutes to dissect the movie as well. -Paul brings up Selfie early in the episode, which was a cute comedy starring John Cho and Karen Gillan. -Erika offers Top Secret! as a palate cleanser. -Paul enjoyed Rough Night, also with Demi Moore, and recommends it if you’re in the mood for something silly.

If you wonder how to promote your evergreen content efficiently, you might want to check out Social Jukebox, a tool that allows you to share your content over and over again on Facebook, LinkedIn or Twitter. In this episode, we talk with Tim Fargo from Social Jukebox. He is a two-time Inc. 500 winner, an entrepreneur, an international speaker and bestselling author and the creator of Social Jukebox. We are paid users of Social Jukebox and use it on a daily basis to promote the Communities That Convert podcast. It may even by why you are here. Tim shares with us some of his best tips and practices to get the most out of your evergreen content.Social Jukebox is an automated content delivery system. So it’s essentially Buffer that just keeps on going, When you get to the end of one of your content databases on Social Jukebox, the content will keep recycling over and over again like an hourglass that just keeps turning over. Question: What is Social Jukebox and why did you create it? Answer: In 2013, I published the book Alphabet Success. I was trying to build an audience to promote the book and found the process of scheduling posts to be mind-numbing things. You could carve your tweet on a granite tablet and send it on horseback to be delivered. The person receiving it on Twitter will have no idea that ever happened so they don’t care how it got there. As a result, I started looking around for a more efficient way to deliver the content. I ended up calling my former head of IT from Omega, that I sold in 2003, and asked him to build a tool to help me deliver my content to the social media sites. I didn’t intend to sell it, but I quickly found people were much more interested in why I was posting 24 hours a day then they were my book. I thought maybe it’s time to abandon the book and try the software business. So here we are. I just shared it with a few people in the beginning and it had a lot of utility. It just didn’t look very nice. So for people that are thinking about starting something, don’t get too hung up on getting it perfect. Just go for “good enough” when you’re getting started. Question: When you started, it only worked with Twitter, but now you have added a few more platforms, correct? Answer: We added the other two biggies in my mind, which are Facebook and LinkedIn, where most people have at least some presence. Almost everybody I think has a favorite go-to platform whether they’re doing a lot of Facebook marketing or whether they’re Twitter-centric. So we added those two platforms and, of course, we continue to look at other platforms to possibly add in the future. Question: What is evergreen content in your mind? Can you give us some examples? Answer: World Cup scores are great to share live or comment on. I have a connection with Sweden because my kids are half Swedish and Sweden’s actually South Korea right now as we are speaking. So that’s a great thing to live tweet because the game is happening now. It’s not a great thing to put in Social Jukebox because in a couple months it’ll be like, yeah we kind of know what happened with that event (Sweden won that match 1-0). Things that make great evergreen content include a social media tip, a great graphic, podcasts, blog posts are very often great, especially if they cover leadership or management. A good example is a plumber that creates videos about how homeowners can take care of jobs that are super easy, like how to tighten the washer onto someone’s sink can then be put in a Jukebox to be shared on Facebook and Twitter to develop a social community. It’s anything that would resonate with your audience on an ongoing basis. Today everyone’s their own media company. Media companies have editorial calendars and you can have an editorial calendar, too. You can create a Jukebox to share seasonal items only at a certain time of year. For instance, you could have content in a Jukebox for Black History Month, if that is something that would resonate with your audience. Question: For people that have not been on the tool yet, can you describe how it works? Answer: Jukeboxes are basically miniature databases of content that post over and over in a random pattern. When people quiz me as to why I chose to do it this way, I tell them that every time I tried to accurately predict the perfect time for the perfect content I was almost universally incorrect. If you have a particular kind of content that you want to share at a certain hour of the day, then that’s great, but don’t get too hung up on it being a specific post. In the Jukeboxes, the content is randomly going, and we also have a calendar for targeted posts where you’ve got a greater level of control. There are actually three different ways to schedule things: Auto-schedule allows you to decide how many times per day you want something to post from each Jukebox. It does it all for you and spaces out the posts. You can set a specific schedule for an entire Jukebox to be used over a specific period of time. You can also visual schedule, which looks like a giant excel spreadsheet. You can move posts around on that for people who want to tweak and get more specific with the time slots. What I recommend for those people is to use auto-schedule to create the massive schedule to start with and then go into the visual schedule and pinpoint different times. Question: What is the effectiveness of the system? Answer: The effectiveness and engagement will depend on the content. If you have a post that’s great, it’s going to get picked up and shared, but if you have a post that sucks, it’s not going to go anywhere. No amount of wizardry is going to make and uninteresting piece of content resonate with people. Think back to the TV shows Friends and Seinfeld. The whole idea was to get eyeballs and once you have those eyeballs, have enough trust generated that those eyeballs will stick around and watch the commercials. There’s lots of different ways to skin a cat and I think driving engagement comes from different ways, right? Some of the ways I have seen work include: Helpful content General interest content Things people find interesting or amusing. Interesting content could be just facts or something that you share that might be relevant to your audience and develop some pickup. Other things could just be pure entertainment. The key is going to be in what does your audience care about. Take the home shopping network, for instance. By my estimation, that whole channel is spam, right? But it’s a business. They don’t exist for no reason. There are people who sit at home and call the place up and order stuff. If they didn’t they go off the air. So it’s all about serving your audience and that’s the key. All that my tool can do is deliver that message to the audience you have. You can automatically add a hashtag to every post in a Jukebox by just adding it once in options instead of adding it to every post in the jukebox, which is much more efficient. But it does always go back to don’t try to put lipstick on a pig. If you don’t have good content you need to focus on fixing that because getting a new tool isn’t going to take you across the goal line. Question: Twitter has new policies in place when it comes to duplicating tweets. Does your tool violate any of these new rules? Can you talk a little bit about the new Twitter policy? Answer: Twitter has had a no duplicate policy since 2009. I don’t want to tempt fate, but the amount of resources that it would require for them to check every post that’s coming on against everything that’s been posted on your account before–you’re talking about a gargantuan amount of overhead. We run an algorithm now to make sure that people aren’t duplicating content too quickly as it goes out because we’re enforcing a 72 hour rule. I’m sure that if I contacted people at Twitter, they’d say it’s absolutely forbidden. But I haven’t heard from anybody that’s having a problem. My impression about these rules and what they were trying to combat is the rise of fake news. Particularly on Twitter where we’d see trends pop up and it was a six word phrase. How does the six word phrase trend? The only way a six word phrase trends is because a bunch of accounts are coordinating the posting. I could add a wrinkle to Social Jukebox where you could update a thousand accounts because you’d have a shared jukebox between all 1000 accounts or 10,000 accounts for 100,000 accounts. There really isn’t an upper limit as long as you have the server resources and you can automatically have that post go out to all those accounts more or less simultaneously. That is something Twitter specifically talked about when they were reaching out. And I’m sure it was the same for everybody that has a posting tool for Twitter. They were very keen to know how you could move content back and forth between accounts, how quickly it could be shared, things like that. So my impression, and I think it’s correct, was they really wanted to find a way to limit people who are trying to make something look as if it was news. And if and if you can have something trend and the articles look newsworthy, people only read the headline and don’t necessarily click on the link but that message becomes the takeaway. I think from Twitter’s perspective, you don’t want to be caught in the middle of this kind of chaos, with people putting out things that are just patently false on your platform.. I’m pretty sure what they were really after was to prevent that kind of thing. And by the way, they don’t like repetitive stuff, so I do think there’s going to be a higher level enforcement where you have to maybe wait, say six or seven hours before you can repeat a post and I’m sure the time table is going to continue to increase. But the idea that you could never share the same post again, I’m not saying never. I said I don’t want to tempt fate, but I don’t see that happening. Question: What makes Social Jukebox standout over similar services on the market? Answer: I like to keep the platform somewhat simple. I think there’s a tendency among almost all software tools to keep adding stuff until you have a product that is so complicated that you need a master’s degree to turn the thing on. It’s great to add features, but at the same time you add overhead to the process, you add complexity to the product, and as a result it very often it becomes intimidating to use it for the simple task that it was made for from the beginning. I’m much more interested in having it be really effective at the things that it’s really meant to do. I’d even include in that having a predictive tool about the best time to tweet is an idiot’s game. All you do is take everyone’s followers and tell them that at 8:00 AM in your area, most of your followers are online. Wow, that’s a real insight. And by the way, it’s not like you’re buying super bowl airtime. You’re adding posts, so why wouldn’t you post around the clock just with the idea that maybe you’ll get a great client from Malaysia? Maybe you’ll find somebody that’s really interested in what you do in New Zealand. Don’t be parochial and think that just because your existing audience is in a certain time zone that you should restrict yourself to that. In the ideal world, you’re not just serving who you’re talking to now. You’re expanding the number of people you’re talking to. At least that would be my key to marketing. I would say really our key is just keep simplifying the tool. I’m not saying take things away, but just try to make it easier and easier to use. If you ever have a support question for Social Jukebox, you get me, there is no support department. If you create a support department, they will do what you’ve mandated them to do. They will give great support on the product. Right? Very rarely are they going to try to figure out a way to eliminate their own job. And the reality is clients don’t want great support. They want a product they understand. And if you keep getting the same questions from customers, don’t figure out a great support answer, figure out a way to redesign the product so that the person doesn’t have a question anymore. That is my mindset. I’m incentivized as the entrepreneur because not only am I the one who’s going to have to ask the questions, but I’m also the person that can affect change. For me that’s a really important distinction, making sure that you’re constantly trying to eliminate the number of questions people might have about something rather than just try to find great ways to answer those questions.

Dog names! New televisions! Jukeboxes! S.O.A! The mind of Robb! And Mike vs. FedEx.
Jukeboxes have fallen out of favor as time and technology marches on, but they still serve as reminders of a different time with respects to music and culture. Berry Bell shares information about jukeboxes and walks us through his collection on this week's show. Put a few quarters in the machine and listen to learn more about the "jutebox" confusion, the Gullah roots of the machine's nickname, and how jukeboxes changed radio programming forever.

In 1993 I made a summer series of five 30 minute programmes on the history of recorded sound. The series was inspired by a visit to the Museum in Utrecht, which then was called From Singing Tower to Street Organs. The is still there. I then discovered people who were collecting pianolas, gramophones and jukeboxes. Of course, it wasn't just the devices. It was the stories that went with them. I've re-released them here as high quality MP3's. Although not a Media Network show, I have had requests from people to put these documentaries into the collection, since they have a connection with communications. This fifth programme explores an unusual hobby in the Netherlands, importing and restoring jukeboxes. I was intrigued at the way they get around the problem of the different phase in the power lines - 60 Hz in North America, 50 Hz in Europe. This was the final and concluding part of the radio series. The earlier episodes are also on line. Let me know what you think!
