This week Wil and Langdon Reid of Wilson Fairchild pull up a chair beside Dave to show you what a life in music actually looks like from the inside. These guys grew up on a tour bus in the ’70s and ’80s watching their dads, Don and Harold Reid, play eight years with Johnny Cash before becoming The Statler Brothers, a side-stage masterclass we all wish we had. You’ll hear the advice that shaped them: nobody can put you in the music business and nobody can take you out, so you’d better love the life and want it bad. You’ll get the manager horror stories (let’s just call him Peter), the reminder that every musician is an entrepreneur, and the hard, useful stuff most players dodge: build a P&L, diversify, manage cash flow first, and when it rains, fill up your buckets. Treat every gig like it matters, because you never know who’s in the room: never punish the people who showed up, and don’t play to the empty seats. Then you’ll dig into the craft that made the family famous: blood harmonies. Learn every part, let the piano teach you how the notes relate, and practice early in the morning just to find your pitch. You’ll discover why four voices were an act nobody wanted to follow, why going from two parts to four is an exponential lift, and where the modulation earns its keep. Through all of it runs one thread: be believable. Whether it’s a vanity song that tells your audience exactly who you are or a closer like It’s Amazing What a Hug Can Do, you sell it because you mean it. That’s the whole game: Always Be Performing, every seat, every song, every night. 00:00:00 Gig Gab 542 – Monday, July 13th, 2026 July 13th: National Barbershop Music Appreciation Day Guest co-hosts: Wil Reid and Langdon Reid of Wilson Fairchild 00:02:19 Post-gig snacks Nachos Chocolate Milk Twinkies Exempt from the food pyramid 00:05:17 Growing up on a tour bus in the 1970s and 1980s A Masterclass in performance art Their Dads, Don and Harold Ried played with Johnny Cash for 8 years before going out on their own as The Statler Brothers Watching from side stage 00:07:25 At 16 and 14, Wil and Langdon started band practice and gigging 00:08:07 Advice from Their Dads “Nobody can put you in the music business, and nobody can take you out” You gotta love the life.

Buckle up for a podcast episode—about podcasting. This time, co-host Blane Harvey switches roles, and is the interviewee alongside Jon Langdon and Sheena Cameron, authors of the The Storytelling Initiative: Community Podcasting at the Frontlines of Climate and Environmental Crises. Joe and Shikha take on co-hosting to unpack storytelling, community podcasting, and the wonderful connections to action research.The episode begins with the team tracing how the project grew out of a research grant to collaborate with Community Radio in Ghana and Student Social Justice Radio in St. Francis Xavier University. The team starts by explaining the deep emphasis on relationship building, then moves onto the what and how of community radio, storytelling, and action research. Joe asks how, in their view, stories are a form of action [15:04], opening into describing the framework for Stories to Change Systems. During the discussion, Jon calls for a broader view of how we view action [25:20]. We explore together how in their research, storytelling was action research, beyond knowledge mobilization, as the scaffolded design for initiatives involved for podcast episodes created meaningful action and learning opportunities. Departing from sanitised and linear conventions of academic work, Shikha asks the team about behind-the-scenes of the Storytelling Initiative. Sheena, Blane, and Jon share the messiness behind the process, from language and time zone barriers, to inequitable funding mechanisms, to the technical difficulties, and the vulnerability of asking people to share their stories [29:09]. Shikha prompts the group to reflect on how the teams were able to connect seven community groups across vastly different contexts, and the team describes a recurring David versus Goliath dynamic, and moments of trans-local solidarity that emerged when people saw their own struggle reflected in someone else's story [41:29]. Lastly, as a continuation of this work, Blane shares the importance of investigating Canadian universities' approaches to ethics and funding to better support grassroot initiatives across the world, and Jon and Sheena reflect on their work in bringing podcasting into classrooms and research methodologies [48:26].Thank you Sheena, Jon, and Blane for sharing your work with us in this episode.Thank you to our listeners for tuning in to this episode of the Action Research Podcast, created by Joe Levitan, Adam Stieglitz, Shikha Diwakar, Cory Legassic, and Vanessa Gold.Produced by Shikha Diwakar and Vanja Lugonjic.Subscribe to our podcast on most major podcast distribution platforms, including Spotify and Apple Podcasts.How have you found yourself in the world of action research?

Every year, more than 5,000 people are killed and over 100,000 are seriously injured in crashes involving large commercial trucks. A lot of those crashes were preventable. Not because the technology didn't exist, but because someone made a deliberate choice not to pay for it.In this episode of After the Crash, David Craig, one of only four attorneys in Indiana Board-Certified in Truck Accident Law by the National Board of Trial Advocacy, sits down with trial attorney J. Kent Emison of Langdon & Emison to talk about what really happens after a truck crash, and what most families never find out. Kent has handled catastrophic truck, product liability, and wrongful death cases across the country, and he brings deep technical knowledge about the safety systems that should be on these trucks.✔️ A government study tracked over 3 million miles and 6,000 automatic emergency braking activations, and found zero crashes resulting from those events✔️ Paccar published data in 2003 showing one second of warning could prevent 90% of rear-end truck accidents, yet two-thirds of trucks on the road today still lack these systems✔️ The manufacturer's cost to add collision mitigation technology is between $97 and $200 per truck, yet it's marked up over 600% and sold as an optional add-on that buyers routinely delete✔️ Trucking companies deploy rapid response teams to crash scenes, sometimes before injured victims have been removed✔️ Ghost drivers, predatory freight brokers, and the economics that push small carriers to cut corners✔️ Reflective tape, underride guards, load shifts, and maintenance failures, the hidden causes that vanish if you don't investigate immediatelyOne detail from this episode is hard to shake. Kent describes a situation where a truck company showed up at the scene before the investigating officer was finished, while the injured victim was still in the hospital. The truck company was actively working to shape the report. That's not a rare exception. It's a documented pattern.

RV travel invites us to explore wide landscapes, open roads, and the freedom of the outdoors, but there's another layer to that experience waiting just beyond the trail. This conversation explores how foraging, wild foods, and campfire cooking connect RVers to the land in a more personal and rewarding way. It's about slowing down, looking closer, and discovering what the forest has to offer right around your campsite.For many travelers, the idea of foraging can feel unfamiliar or overwhelming at first. Where do you begin? What is safe to pick? How do you turn wild ingredients into a meal you actually want to eat? This discussion helps take the mystery out of that process and opens the door for beginners who want to try something new on their next RV trip. From wild greens to chanterelles and morels, the outdoors becomes both your destination and your pantry.Guest Langdon Cook is a Seattle-based author known for three books that explore wild food culture: Fat of the Land, The Mushroom Hunters, and Upstream: Searching for Salmon from River to Table. His writing blends storytelling, ecology, and food, offering a deeper look at how wild ingredients shape both people and place.Together we talk about foraging as part of outdoor adventure travel, how it fits into RV living, and why it continues to draw people back into forests and campsites across the Pacific Northwest and beyond. If you've ever considered adding foraging to your camping routine, this conversation offers a grounded place to start.Send us Fan MailSign up for our NewsletterPlease follow the show so you never miss an episode.

Everyone's juggling a lot in The Pitt Season 2, but Isa Briones' storyline as Trinity Santos feels especially full. Not only is being a second-year resident at Pittsburgh Trauma Medical Center's Emergency Department especially taxing, but on this particular day, she also faces the return of Dr. Langdon (Patrick Ball), Dr. Robby's (Noah Wyle) pending exit for his sabbatical, and the realization that she might not get precisely what she wants out of her relationship with Dr. Garcia (Alexandra Metz). As is very often the case with The Pitt, the writers do an exceptional job of blending workplace challenges with personal concerns to craft stories about fully realized people giving everything they've got to others, while trying to figure out how to care for themselves in the process.With The Pitt closing in on its Season 2 finale, Briones carved out the time to swing by the Collider Ladies Night studio to discuss everything that's happened through Episode 13, “7:00 PM,” before jetting off to New York City for her run in Just in Time on Broadway. We covered lessons learned from her father, Jon Jon Briones, takeaways from Star Trek: Picard, what it was like joining the cast of The Pitt, and, of course, everything Santos is trying to power through on July 4th.
