Jonathan Mahler's The Gods of New York is a brilliant chronicle of the late 1980s, when a rotating cast of outrageous characters — Trump, Koch, Sharpton, among others — hogged the headlines. Bradley talks to Mahler about the clash of epic egos, as well as shifting social conditions. How exactly did homelessness and untreated mental illness go from an emergency that pricked the conscience of New Yorkers to a normalized, if regrettable, fact of urban life? Fast-forwarding to the present, they parse Brooklyn's transformation, how the business elite grew complacent, where Mamdani will lead us, and who will write the next chapter about a wealthier but increasingly rudderless city.This episode was taped at P&T Knitwear at 180 Orchard Street — New York City's only free podcast recording studio.Send us an email with your thoughts on today's episode: info@firewall.media.Be sure to watch Bradley's new TED Talk on Mobile Voting at https://go.ted.com/bradleytusk.Subscribe to Bradley's weekly newsletter and follow Bradley on Linkedin + Substack + YouTube.
Over vijftien jaar is één op de vier Nederlanders 65-plus. Die vergrijzing heeft grote gevolgen voor ons zorgstelsel en de betaalbaarheid daarvan. En dus moet er nú worden nagedacht over de zorgdilemma's die horen bij een vergrijzende samenleving... Moet iedere behandeling bijvoorbeeld wel altijd worden uitgevoerd, ook als de kans op herstel klein is en zijn de nadelen groot? En voor welke taken worden er nu vaak nog zorgprofessionals ingezet, maar zouden eigenlijk prima kunnen worden gedaan door iemand uit het eigen netwerk? Te gast is Margje Mahler, bestuurder bij zorgorganisatie Sensire en bestuurslid bij branchevereniging ActiZ. Er moet véél meer aandacht voor de vergrijzing komen in de politiek, want dat raakt de hele samenleving. Dat zegt de misschien wel invloedrijkste arbeidsmarktdeskundige van Nederland: Ton Wilthagen. Hij is te gast in BNR's Big Five van de grijze golf.

The actor Richard Armitage refuses to be pigeon-holed. He first made a national impact as the mill-owner John Thornton in the BBC adaptation of Elizabeth Gaskell's North and South. Audiences around the world know him as Thorin Oakenshield in The Hobbit trilogy, directed by Peter Jackson. He's played a serial killer in Hannibal, a spy in Spooks, and has starred in four Harlan Coben thrillers on Netflix. He's also written thrillers: the most recent is The Cut, which examines childhood trauma and the dangers of buried secrets - and also draws on his own musical experiences, because the main character, like Richard, plays the cello. His choices include works by Arvo Part, Mahler, Rameau, and Gluck. Presenter Michael Berkeley Producer Clare Walker
As many of you know, my beloved mother died this past week. I've been trying for two days now to put together a memorial episode that would do justice to the many divergent aspects of the woman that she was. Alas, I have not yet been able to rise to the challenge, so instead, I offer a recently published bonus episode devoted to the exceptional English contralto Anna Reynolds (05 June 1930 – 24 February 2014), a true servant of her art. She was an extraordinarily eclectic interpreter, blessed with a caramel voice and a vivid interpretive sense. I have chosen music by Bach and Mahler to highlight the qualities that made her so special, and which served the ethos of both of these composers remarkably well. These are among the finest interpretations of the vocal music of either Bach or Mahler that you will ever encounter. Today's guest artists include soprano Helen Donath and tenor Peter Schreier, pianist Geoffrey Parsons, and conductors Hermann Scherchen, Josef Krips, Lorin Maazel, Benjamin Britten, Wyn Morris, Rudolf Kempe, and Karl Richter. May this exceptional artist and her colleagues bring a sense of peace, grace, and repose to all of us who so desperately need it. Countermelody is a podcast devoted to the glory and the power of the human voice raised in song. Singer and vocal aficionado Daniel Gundlach explores great singers of the past and present focusing in particular on those who are less well-remembered today than they should be. Daniel's lifetime in music as a professional countertenor, pianist, vocal coach, voice teacher, and author yields an exciting array of anecdotes, impressions, and “inside stories.” At Countermelody's core is the celebration of great singers of all stripes, their instruments, and the connection they make to the words they sing.

SynopsisIn all, Polish composer Krzysztof Penderecki completed eight symphonies, and in 2013, to celebrate his 80th birthday, there appeared a box set of recordings billed as his “complete symphonies,” all conducted by their composer. But while that “complete” set included Symphonies Nos. 1-5 and 7&8, it was missing No. 6. The reason? Although Penderecki had begun work on his sixth symphony years earlier, it remained unfinished when the set was issued.Fast forward to today's date in 2017 for the out-of-sequence premiere of Penderecki's Symphony No. 6, given in China by the Guangzhou Symphony Orchestra. The venue was apt, since the symphony was subtitled Chinese Poems, and included settings for baritone and orchestra of eight ancient Chinese poems — with a Chinese instrument, the erhu, providing solo interludes.Curiously, Penderecki chose to set German translations of the Chinese poems, translations published back in 1907 in the same collection Gustav Mahler had sourced for his unnumbered song-symphony Das Lied von der Erde, the Song of the Earth. And it's probably no coincidence that Penderecki's Symphony No. 6 sounds very much like he was trying to channel both the spirit and sound world of Mahler's early 20th century song-symphony into own his 21st-century one.Music Played in Today's ProgramKrzysztof Penderecki (1933-2020): Symphony No. 6 (Chinese Poems); Stephan Genz, baritone; Polish Chamber Philharmonic Orchestra Sopot; Wojciech Rajski, conductor; Accord ACD-270

Ging heut Morgen übers Feld? Die 1. Sinfonie von Gustav Mahler. Arnold Schönberg liebte sie: «Eigentlich ist schon alles da, was ihn charakterisieren wird. Hier schon klingt seine Lebensmelodie an, die er zur höchsten Entfaltung bringt. Die Hingabe an die Natur und die Todesgedanken.» Und dazu auch noch das spätromantische Pathos, die volkstümlichen Melodien, die ironische Verfremdung, die Collagentechnik, die Überblendungen von Derbheit und Süsse. Die Harfenistin Sarah O'Brien und der Musikkritiker Jörn Florian Fuchs diskutieren fünf neuere Einspielungen dieser Sinfonie, die bei der Uraufführung durchfiel, dann ein Programm verpasst bekam - das dann Mahler aber wieder (inklusive eines der fünf Sätze) entfernte.
Et si le hip-hop, né dans la rue, pouvait dialoguer avec Mozart, Beethoven ou Mahler ?Et si l'énergie brute du freestyle pouvait entrer dans les temples de la musique classique, face à un orchestre symphonique entier ?C'est le pari audacieux de Yann Antonio, danseur français d'origine congolaise, qui s'impose aujourd'hui comme une figure singulière de la danse.Sur scène, il improvise son hip-hop devant des orchestres prestigieux – de la Philharmonie de Berlin à l'Alte Oper de Francfort – et ses prestations cumulent déjà plusieurs millions de vues sur les réseaux sociaux.Un succès fulgurant qui intrigue autant qu'il inspire : comment un danseur venu du Val-d'Oise a-t-il réussi à tracer une telle trajectoire ?Dans cet épisode des Sens de la Danse, le podcast que je crée et anime, je pars à sa rencontre.Je m'appelle Myriam Sellam, journaliste et passionnée de danse, et à travers chaque entretien je cherche à comprendre comment le mouvement transforme nos vies.Avec Yann Antonio, nous revenons sur son enfance, marquée par une famille où l'art circule naturellement : une grand-mère danseuse, un grand-père musicien, une mère chanteuse de gospel, et surtout un frère, Loïc Mabanza, danseur professionnel et premier mentor.Il évoque ses années de travail acharné, ses doutes, ses efforts pour dépasser le simple cadre des battles et inventer une voie nouvelle.Et il partage ce détail marquant : dans sa chambre d'adolescent, il avait accroché sur un mur des images de ses rêves – des affiches de salles de concert, des orchestres – qu'il contemplait chaque jour.« J'ai affiché mes rêves sur un mur… et je les ai réalisés. »Ce rituel de visualisation, cette capacité à transformer une vision en réalité, est au cœur de son histoire.Car Yann Antonio n'a jamais cessé de croire qu'un jour, il danserait son hip-hop face à un orchestre.Il a porté ce rêve pendant dix ans, jusqu'à le voir se concrétiser.Aujourd'hui, ses performances bouleversent les spectateurs : il entre dans l'instant, improvise chaque geste, laisse son corps dialoguer avec la musique sans préparation ni partition.C'est une rencontre improbable, mais profondément évidente : un langage né de la rue qui s'élève aux côtés de la musique savante, et qui rappelle que la danse est universelle.Au fil de notre conversation, Yann Antonio parle aussi de la nécessité de s'inspirer, de l'importance des mentors, de la patience et de la persévérance.Son parcours est une leçon d'humilité et de détermination :
This Day in Legal History: Lord Haw-Haw SentencedOn September 19, 1945, William Joyce—infamously known as “Lord Haw-Haw”—was sentenced to death by a British court for high treason. Joyce had gained notoriety during World War II for broadcasting Nazi propaganda over German radio to British audiences, aiming to demoralize Allied troops and civilians. Born in Brooklyn, New York, and raised in the UK and Ireland, Joyce later became a naturalized German citizen and an enthusiastic supporter of Hitler. His broadcasts, delivered in a nasal, sneering voice, opened with the phrase “Germany calling,” and earned him the derisive nickname "Lord Haw-Haw" from British listeners.After the war, Joyce was captured by British forces in Germany and brought back to the UK to stand trial. Despite his German citizenship, the court ruled that he had committed treason because he had held a British passport when he began working for the Nazis. His legal defense argued that he owed no allegiance to Britain at the time of the broadcasts, but the court held that possession of the passport created a duty of allegiance. The case raised significant questions about the limits of national loyalty and the reach of British treason laws.On January 6, 1946, Joyce was executed by hanging at Wandsworth Prison, becoming one of the last people to be executed for treason in the UK. The trial and execution were controversial, with some legal scholars and public commentators questioning the soundness of the court's interpretation of allegiance. Nevertheless, the sentence was seen by many at the time as a necessary response to one of the most prominent domestic collaborators of the war.The National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH), long considered a cost-effective and critical pillar of U.S. workplace safety, has been effectively dismantled under the Trump administration's 2025 restructuring efforts. The agency, a division of the CDC responsible for certifying N95 masks, studying firefighter deaths, and leading occupational health research, saw roughly 90% of its 1,000 staff receive layoff notices on April 1. This move paralyzed core programs, from black lung screenings to PPE certifications, halting NIOSH's role as both a public safeguard and a quiet corporate consultant. The sudden cuts sparked chaos: lab animals were euthanized, crucial research was frozen, and businesses warned of safety gaps and market instability.Many affected workers have since resigned or are stuck on administrative leave, while others remain in limbo as lawsuits challenge the legality of the terminations. Despite statements from HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. claiming essential functions remain intact, internal confusion and partial walk-backs—like budget proposals still seeking to slash 80% of NIOSH funding—suggest deeper dismantling intentions. Business leaders, labor unions, and safety advocates have united in rare bipartisan pushback, warning of long-term risks to both worker health and industrial standards.The agency's downfall is part of a broader campaign to weaken the federal workforce, spearheaded by Project 2025 architects and executed with sweeping firings, anti-DEI mandates, and deep budget cuts across agencies. Former government scientists describe the collapse of safety infrastructure as a slow, invisible crisis—where the full damage may not emerge for years. With morale shattered and talent fleeing, the future of U.S. workplace safety research is in jeopardy.Trump Team Derailed Corporate America's Most Valuable ConsultantTwo major elements of President Donald Trump's economic agenda—his global tariffs and his attempt to remove Federal Reserve Governor Lisa Cook—are now in the hands of the U.S. Supreme Court, raising pivotal questions about the scope of presidential power. The court has agreed to hear a challenge to Trump's use of the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA) to impose sweeping tariffs, a law traditionally used to sanction hostile foreign actors, not manage trade. Arguments are set for November 5. Separately, Trump is seeking to fire Cook, claiming misconduct; however, critics argue this is a pretext for targeting her policy views and that doing so violates the 1913 law establishing the Fed's independence.Legal scholars warn that siding with Trump in either case could dramatically expand executive authority. Trump has already tested legal boundaries across immigration, diversity, and civil service policy. While lower courts have often blocked his initiatives, the Supreme Court—now with a 6-3 conservative majority including three Trump appointees—has frequently sided with him. The Cook case raises unprecedented constitutional questions, as no president has ever removed a Fed governor.Meanwhile, Trump's tariff actions have destabilized global trade relations and spurred economic uncertainty, though his allies argue they are central to his economic strategy. A decision favoring Trump in both cases could weaken institutional checks on executive power and erode the principle of independent monetary policy.Key parts of Trump's economic agenda now in Supreme Court's hands | ReutersIn Washington, D.C., immigrant neighborhoods like Mount Pleasant, Petworth, and Columbia Heights are pushing back against a surge in Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) arrests under President Donald Trump's intensified immigration enforcement campaign. Local residents have begun organizing in real-time—using chat groups and in-person protests—to disrupt ICE detentions, including a recent case where bystanders successfully pressured officers to release a Guatemalan man. These actions reflect growing distrust and fear within largely Latino communities, where residents report increased racial profiling and aggressive policing.The Trump administration's recent declaration of a “crime emergency” in D.C., coupled with the federalization of local police and a heightened ICE presence, has heightened tensions, especially in areas with deep immigrant roots. Community members and advocacy groups say people are being targeted based on appearance or location, not criminal history. Businesses that once bustled with immigrant patrons are seeing sharp declines in foot traffic, as many residents now avoid public spaces out of fear.Federal officials defend the enforcement as targeting serious offenders, but critics point out that many arrests involve individuals without criminal records. A Supreme Court ruling this month has further enabled ICE to continue race- or location-based arrests. Meanwhile, residents like Yessica Gonzalez and Nelvin Rodriguez say the climate of fear is unlike anything they've previously experienced. The increased enforcement has not only disrupted lives but also strained local economies and community trust.Washington's immigrant neighborhoods push back against ICE arrests | ReutersThe U.S. Senate has confirmed John Squires, a veteran intellectual property attorney and former Goldman Sachs executive, as the new head of the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) under President Donald Trump. Squires takes over at a critical time, as the agency grapples with global competition from China and emerging legal challenges surrounding artificial intelligence in the patent process. His appointment follows a broad push by Senate Republicans to confirm a slate of Trump nominees despite Democratic opposition.Squires brings a deep background in both corporate and legal arenas, having worked on IP and tech issues at firms like Honeywell and most recently at Dilworth Paxson, where he focused on AI, blockchain, and cybersecurity. He has also taught at the University of Pennsylvania. His predecessor, Kathi Vidal, led the USPTO during the Biden administration and returned to private practice following Trump's 2024 election victory.The USPTO plays a vital role in the American innovation ecosystem, handling patent and trademark applications and advising the government on intellectual property policy. The agency's Patent Trial and Appeal Board frequently mediates high-stakes disputes over patent validity, especially in the tech sector. Squires steps into the role amid heightened political scrutiny, including a controversial Commerce Department order to review patents held by Harvard University as part of a broader White House campaign linked to campus antisemitism concerns.US Senate confirms Trump's pick to run US Patent and Trademark Office | ReutersThis week's closing theme is by Gustav Mahler.This week's closing theme comes from one of the most enigmatic works in the orchestral repertoire: Mahler's Symphony No. 7, specifically its haunting first movement, Langsam – Allegro risoluto, ma non troppo. Composed between 1904 and 1905 and premiered on September 19, 1908, this symphony marks a fascinating midpoint in Mahler's artistic evolution—bridging the lush Romanticism of his earlier works with the more fractured, modernist terrain of his later symphonies.The first movement opens with a dark, slow introduction featuring the eerie voice of the tenor horn, an instrument rarely heard in symphonic writing. Its strange, searching call sets a tone of unease, as if the music is emerging from shadow. What follows is a restless march full of contrasts—grim fanfares, lyrical episodes, and bursts of uneasy energy—all presented with Mahler's characteristic sense of orchestral color and irony.Unlike the more spiritual or pastoral moods of Mahler's other symphonies, the Seventh is often described as "problematic," even "nightmarish"—a label Mahler himself rejected. He referred to the symphony as a progression “from night into day,” and this opening movement represents the beginning of that journey: turbulent, disoriented, and shot through with moments of beauty and menace.Mahler's orchestration here is dense and highly detailed, often requiring massive forces and unconventional instruments. Yet beneath its complexity lies a deep emotional current—one that shifts rapidly from the grotesque to the sublime. The movement ends not with resolution but with a kind of defiant uncertainty, a theme Mahler would continue to explore in his final works.As our closing theme this week, Langsam – Allegro reminds us that the path through darkness is rarely straightforward—and that art, like life, often resists tidy interpretation.Without further ado, Gustav Mahler's Langsam – Allegro risoluto, ma non troppo– enjoy!

Even before the continuing acts of gun violence in the US this week, I had chosen a theme that necessitated a rather sombre setlist: the artistry of Canadian-born singer George London in recital. Though London was one of the premier operatic bass-baritones in the 1950s, he also reserved a significant corner of his artistic endeavors for the recital stage. This episode focuses on London's live and studio recordings of this repertoire, which, in part simply by virtue of the dark color of his voluminous voice, tended toward the serious: Schubert's Heine settings, Brahms's Vier ernste Gesänge, Ibert's Don Quichotte songs, Duparc's sepia-toned melodies, Mahler's Kindertotenlieder, and his calling-card, Mussorgsky's Songs and Dances of Death. Examples of London singing all of this repertoire are included, accompanied by Paul Ulanowsky, Leo Taubman, Erik Werba, and John Newmark, among others. The episode is dedicated to the memory of all innocent victims in the epidemic of gun violence in the United States.

A new book from Jonathan Mahler posits that the years from 1986 to 1990 were some of the most important, and tumultuous, in New York City history. Mahler discusses the book, The Gods of New York: Egotists, Idealists, Opportunists, and the Birth of the Modern City: 1986-1990.
John welcomes Jonathan Mahler, New York Times Magazine staff writer and bestselling author of “The Bronx Is Burning,” to discuss his new book, “The Gods of New York: Egotists, Idealists, Opportunists, and the Birth of the Modern City: 1986-1990.” Mahler unpacks the reinvention of the Big Apple in the second half of the Eighties; riffs on the outsized characters (from Ed Koch and Rudy Giuliani to Larry Kramer, Al Sharpton, and, of course, Donald Trump) who played key roles in it; and argues that the rise of Zohran Mamdani signals an end to the 40-year era spawned by that transformation. He and Heilemann also reminisce about crossing paths as undergrads in 1987—first as teammates and then as cellmates.

Die Salzburger Festspiele 2025 enden mit einer "Abschiedssymphonie": Die Berliner Philharmoniker spielen unter Kirill Petrenko Gustav Mahlers Neunte. Sie war eigentlich die Zehnte. Die Musikbeispiele dirigiert der Dirigent der Uraufführung der Symphonie, Bruno Walter (CBS).
Jonathan Mahler, author of 'The Gods of New York', joins Joanna Coles to explore Donald Trump's tabloid-fueled rise in the 1980s. From his feud with the Koch brothers over Wollman Rink to the Marla Maples scandal in Aspen and his explosive Central Park Five ad, Mahler reveals how Trump mastered gossip and scandal to build a myth that would carry him into politics. They trace how Trump's obsession with media attention turned Page Six into his personal stage. And they uncover how the tabloid era's culture wars laid the foundation for Trump's future in the White House. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
Each year, the Australian World Orchestra brings together Australia's top musicians from all over the world. On September 3 and 4, the orchestra plays Mahler's 4th and 5th symphonies — with German soprano Sarah Traubel. In conversation, she explains, among other things, what fascinates her in particular about Mahler, what role her solo plays — and why she experiences participating in the Australian World Orchestra like a class reunion in which she herself is the welcomed 'exchange student. ' - Das Australian World Orchestra vereint jedes Jahr Australiens Spitzenmusiker aus aller Welt. Am 3. und 4. September spielt es Mahlers 4. und 5. Symphonie – mit dabei die deutsche Sopranistin Sarah Traubel. Im Gespräch erzählt sie unter anderem, was sie besonders an Mahler fasziniert, welche Rolle ihr Solo spielt – und warum sie das Mitwirken im Australian World Orchestra wie ein Klassentreffen erlebt, bei dem sie selbst die wilkommene ‚Austauschschülerin‘ ist.
Alexander Briger, directeur artistique et chef d'orchestre de l'Australian World Orchestra nous parle des prochains concerts de Gustav Mahler, les Symphonies n°4 et 5, au Hamer Hall de Melbourne et à l'Opéra House de Sydney.
Is the history of New York City the heart of the American story? Or does it exist in parallel, perhaps even independently, from the main American narrative. As with everything about the Big Apple (so good they named it twice), the answer is both. Or everything. At least according to Jonathan Mahler, author of The Gods of New York, a new history of the egoists and opportunists who remade the city in the 1980s. It's the story of Donald Trump, of course, as well as Rudi Guiliani, Ed Koch, Spike Lee, Larry Kramer, Al Sharpton and an astonishingly entertaining cast of characters that only New York could create. But it's also the broader American story of the victory of neo-liberal economics and ever-deepening chasm between Wall Street wealth and main street poverty. Mahler argues that the transformation from the "Mean Streets" dystopia of the 1970s to the finance-dominated metropolis of the 1980s didn't just save New York City —it created the troubling template for modern America, complete with all our current economic inequalities, political absurdities and tabloid cultural realities. 1. The 1980s Created Modern America's Template The transformation of New York from 1986-1990 wasn't just urban renewal—it was the birth of neoliberal America. The city's embrace of Wall Street, real estate development, and deregulation became the blueprint for how America would operate for the next four decades.2. Power Shifted from Public to Private The era marked a fundamental transfer of urban power from public officials like Robert Moses and labor unions to private developers like Trump. Instead of government-led projects, cities began relying on private industry to drive development—often with devastating consequences for working-class communities.3. Trump's Origin Story Explains His Political Magic Trick Trump went from being the 1980s symbol of greed and excess to becoming the voice of America's disaffected in 2016. This transformation from tabloid character to populist leader represents one of the most remarkable political reinventions in American history.4. The American Dream Became Less Accessible New York's evolution into what Bloomberg called "a luxury product" reflects a broader national trend. The same forces that saved the city from 1970s decline also priced out working and middle-class families, making economic mobility increasingly difficult.5. Tabloid Culture Became Political Culture The larger-than-life personalities who dominated 1980s New York—the "Gods" of Mahler's title—pioneered a celebrity-driven, spectacle-based approach to public life that eventually consumed American politics, from Trump's rise to our current media-saturated political landscape.Keen On America is a reader-supported publication.

A new book titled “Gods of New York: Egotists, Idealists, Opportunists, and the Birth of the Modern City, 1986-1990” covers New York City's pivotal and transformative years in the 1980s, tracing notable figures such as Donald Trump, Al Sharpton, Curtis Sliwa and Rudy Giuliani. The author, Jonathan Mahler, is a New York Times Magazine staff writer. He previously wrote the critically acclaimed bestseller “Ladies and Gentlemen, the Bronx is Burning,” an account of 1977 in the city. Mahler joined NY1's Errol Louis to discuss the new book, focusing on the economic boom driven by Wall Street, the rise of homelessness and key struggles like the fiscal crisis and the crack epidemic. They also discussed how it all relates to the present day, the race for mayor and Democratic candidate Zohran Mamdani.

Chuck Todd opens with a revealing moment that perfectly encapsulates Trump's psychology: after praising Todd on Truth Social for comments taken completely out of context, Trump exposes his desperate hunger for validation and his dangerous ability to rewrite reality, while the six-week delay reveals how information bubbles work in his administration and his "neediness" for historic affirmation drives increasingly erratic behavior that's systematically dismantling constitutional norms. He argues we're witnessing a fundamentally different Trump 2.0 where the resistance that constrained his first term has evaporated, leaving Republicans as a "unified defense mechanism" while Democrats fracture over strategy, all as Trump successfully convinces the country that rules simply don't apply to him anymore. Then, he looks ahead to several key developments shaping the 2026 midterms, from Eleni Kounalakis's California governor exit clearing the field for Rick Caruso, to Sherrod Brown's strategic Ohio Senate bid against likely GOP nominee Vivek Ramaswamy with Amy Acton as a Democratic wildcard, to Mamdani's commanding New York City poll lead over flailing campaigns from Eric Adams and Andrew Cuomo. Throughout, he warns that Trump's systematic destruction of institutional norms threatens America's constitutional republic at the exact moment when international credibility and democratic checks and balances matter most for global stability, while his apocalyptic vision of Washington creates a permission structure for authoritarianism that will outlast his presidency.Then, author Jonathan Mahler joins Chuck Todd for a deep dive into his new book “The Gods of New York” which explores the cultural and political forces that shaped New York City during its transformative 1980s era. They discuss figures like Ed Koch who pioneered the "celebrification" of NYC mayors, and Donald Trump who was considered a "fleeting cultural figure" despite learning how to manipulate tabloid culture for attention. Mahler traces the interconnected stories of power brokers like Roy Cohn, who connected Trump with NYC's elite before his death signaled the end of an era, and the complex relationship between Trump and Al Sharpton, who "fed off each other" while Sharpton strategically chose which politicians could attend high-profile funerals like that of murdered teenager Yusef Hawkins. The conversation explores how Trump inserted himself into politics through cultural commentary starting in 1988, mirroring George Steinbrenner's attention-grabbing tactics from the 1970s, while the city grappled with the AIDS epidemic and Ed Koch's failure to meet the moment due to fears of being outed.The discussion examines the broader cultural awakening of the era, from the rise of ACT UP during the AIDS crisis to Spike Lee's movie "Do the Right Thing" serving as a wake-up call for white America, all occurring under the looming presence of Mario Cuomo, who was "larger than life" in New York politics. Mahler details how Trump mastered the art of becoming one of New York's "tabloid gods" before heading toward spectacular bankruptcy in 1990 and entering his "hibernation" period in the '90s, while also drawing parallels between historical political dynamics and contemporary figures like Zohran Mamdani. The episode concludes with insights into why transformational mayors like David Dinkins struggled with reelection and how the Yankees' resurgence became symbolic of the city's broader renewal, providing essential context for understanding how New York's unique political and cultural ecosystem created the conditions that would eventually propel Trump from local celebrity to national political figure.Finally, he answers listeners' questions in the “Ask Chuck” segment.Timeline:00:00 Chuck Todd's Introduction03:45 Trump praises Chuck on Truth Social04:45 Trump missed the context of Chuck's comments05:30 It took six weeks for Chuck's comment to make it to Trump06:45 Trump wants to be historic and shows he's needy08:00 Trump is desperate for affirmation, whether it's positive or negative09:15 Trump bullies everyone into believing there are no rules10:15 Trump ran into resistance in 1.0, but not in 2.011:15 Why the pushback to Trump has dissipated14:00 The Republican party is a unified defense mechanism for Trump14:45 Democrats are split on how to push back on Trump18:00 The apocalyptic vision of DC Trump paints is inaccurate20:30 Trump's actions are terrible for the long term image of the U.S.22:15 If we want to stay a constitutional republic, we need checks and balances24:15 Two big developments in CA governor race25:15 Eleni Kounalakis drops out of CA gov race26:15 Rick Caruso setting up run for governor?

Synopsis“Time is a funny thing,” as one of the more philosophically-inclined Viennese characters so wisely observed in Richard Strauss' opera Der Rosenkavalier.Der Rosenkavalier had its premiere in 1911, and coincidentally, on today's date that year, Viennese composer Anton von Webern completed one of the shortest orchestral works ever written — the fourth of his Five Pieces for Orchestra, which lasts about 20 seconds time. It's so short, it takes longer to describe the music than to actually hear it!Webern was attempting to render down the extravagant style of late-Romantic composers like Strauss and Mahler into its quintessence — a haiku-like concentration of gesture and color, the musical equivalent of a Japanese painting of just a few deft brush strokes across a blank canvas, with more implied than actually shown.In the same spirit, but at the opposite end of the time spectrum, is the work of American composer Morton Feldman, who holds the record for composing some of the longest pieces ever written. Feldman was friends with, and inspired by, painters of the so-called New York School, including Mark Rothko and Philip Guston. A 1984 work by Feldman is titled For Philip Guston, and, in complete performance, it's a piece that runs about four hours.Music Played in Today's ProgramRichard Strauss (1864-1949): Der Rosenkavalier: Suite; New York Philharmonic; Lorin Maazel, conductor; DG 7890Anton Webern (1883-1945): No. 4, from Five Pieces for Orchestra; Ensemble InterContemporain; Pierre Boulez, conductor; DG 437786Morton Feldman (1926-1987): For Philip Guston; The California EAR Unit; Bridge 9078
This past April, my former voice teacher and treasured friend Joan Caplan died at the age of 92. A few weeks ago, family and friends organized a memorial gathering for which I produced a short audio tribute, which is heard at the beginning of this episode. Before the event, we heard a number of recordings of Joan in her prime that absolutely knocked me on my ear. I was kindly given copies of these recordings from which I have fashioned an expanded episode in her honor. Most of these recordings have simply never been heard before, but I know that Joan was very proud of the work that she did during her active singing career, before she dedicated herself wholeheartedly to her teaching. Her rare live recordings of arias by Handel, Verdi, Donizetti, Purcell, and Hasse display her magnificent technique, while excerpts from her song recitals, including music by Brahms, Mahler, Montsalvatge, and Glanville-Hicks, display her versatility as well as her interpretive insight. I also share personal insights and reminiscences of Joan which will, I hope, reveal the special relationship that I shared with her, which many of her students, friends, and chosen family also experienced. When I last visited Joan, I promised her that I would do what I could to ensure that she would be properly remembered. With this episode, I do my part, to the best of my ability, to keep that promise. Countermelody is a podcast devoted to the glory and the power of the human voice raised in song. Singer and vocal aficionado Daniel Gundlach explores great singers of the past and present focusing in particular on those who are less well-remembered today than they should be. Daniel's lifetime in music as a professional countertenor, pianist, vocal coach, voice teacher, and journalist yields an exciting array of anecdotes, impressions, and “inside stories.” At Countermelody's core is the celebration of great singers of all stripes, their instruments, and the connection they make to the words they sing.

Für die einen heißt es über den Sommer ab ans Meer, bei Gustav Mahler hingegen ruft der Berg.
In 1897, Gustav Klimt led a group of radical artists to break free from the cultural establishment of Vienna and found a movement that became known as the Vienna Secession. In the vibrant atmosphere of coffee houses, Freudian psychoanalysis and the music of Wagner and Mahler, the Secession sought to bring together fine art and music with applied arts such as architecture and design. The movement was characterized by Klimt's stylised paintings, richly decorated with gold leaf, and the art nouveau buildings that began to appear in the city, most notably the Secession Building, which housed influential exhibitions of avant-garde art and was a prototype of the modern art gallery. The Secessionists themselves were pioneers in their philosophy and way of life, aiming to immerse audiences in unified artistic experiences that brought together visual arts, design, and architecture.
