Podcast appearances and mentions of Mal Blum

This episode originally broadcast on May 8, 2025. The original podcast post is here: https://pixelatedgeek.com/2025/05/binary-system-podcast-456-wtnv-267-missed-connections-and-more-star-trek-lower-decks/s week in Night Vale, Cecil's starting a new segment: Missed Connections. I'm sure you're all familiar with the concept, where you throw all of your longing and regret into the public forum in the hopes that one person (or in the case here, one car, one planet, one train, or one very untrustworthy partner in crime who can't keep running forever, Sebastian) will tune in at just the right time and instinctively know that you're talking about them. There's also a little about gently-expired soup and how Arby's is the most romantic place on Earth, if you happen to be Cecil.Kathryn also has a full recap of Star Trek: Lower Decks Season 3 Episode 8 (Hee, George Takei said "horsey".) We then devoted some time to talk about (yet another) WorldCon scandal, this one involving the committee using AI to vet their panelists. We have some thoughts about this, but if you take one thing away from the discussion it should be this: ChatGPT Is. Not. A. Search. Engine. That is all.This week's outro is a clip from Fountains by Noisy Oyster. The song "I'm So Bored" by Mal Blum has a music video!Update: WorldCon has released an apology (and explanation?) for the use of ChatGPT.Looking for a present for that hard-to-shop-for person?

Maggie Mae Fish, comedian, horror fan, and descendant of serial killer Albert Fish, joins Gaby and Mal for a special spooky Halloween money episode. We talk about the origins of cheap horror and how it became one of the most affordable genres of movie to make. Gaby does a deep dive on Val Lewton and his stream of iconic low budget horror films from the 1940s. Mal reads a short scary story they wrote as a child called "Ghost Ship" which involves a pirate named Captain Blood. Then, the trio dig into the finances and capitalism of Stanley Kubrick's 1980 classic The Shining. How is work and desperation for work in America depicted? How is Wendy being financially, physically and emotionally abused?

In this incredible and vulnerable coming out-inspired episode, co-host Mal Blum contacts banks to test which ones allow trans people to change their names on their accounts without paperwork. They ask about: changing deadnames on accounts to shortened versions, opening new accounts under chosen names, and which banks allow you to alter your name on your checks or credit cards. They encounter well-meaning reps, repetitions of their deadname, and roadblocks that make no goddamn sense. And happy GLAAD Spirit Day! (That's today! According to their website: "This day aims to create awareness for the bullying and harassment that the LGBTQ community faces.") Thank you to Mal for doing all this work and putting themselves on the line for the good of every queer listener!  Banks in this episode: Chase Bank TD Bank Wells Fargo CitiBank (corporate vs. local branch) Links: https://www.glaad.org/spiritday Gaby Dunn Instagram: @GabyRoad Mal Blum is @malblum anywhere you want to find them BWM Instagram: @bwmpod BWM Facebook group: http://tinyurl.com/badwithmoneyfb The BWM Discord channel: https://discord.gg/dAdxj4JMER Find Gaby on Patreon: patreon.com/gabydunn Shop gabydunn.com/shop for merch!

In our first "Mal Blum, Professional Guinea Pig" episode, Gaby makes their partner and co-host Mal play Investopedia's "Stock Market Simulator" and The Financial Times' Uber game. Mal flounders on what to do with 100,000 dollars in risky stocks. (It still does not get exciting.) Find out what commodity Mal thinks is the only sound investment and how their "fake stocks" are currently doing. Then, the duo plays "The Uber Game" where Mal tries to pay their 1,000 dollar mortgage by driving rideshare in San Francisco for a week. Gaby shares their own Postmates driving journey. In the game, things go awry and Mal has to make some tough and tiring decisions. Plus, what does NVIDIA Corporation actually do??? Someone let us know.

we’re visiting our parents right now. we is me and rebs and pegs. there are five adults and three dogs in the house. my aunt and her poms are here too. i’m including myself as one of the adults. if i counted myself as one of the dogs, then we’d be more evenly matched - four on four. it’s almost a basketball game, if dogs could play basketball. oh wait, air bud. i have a hard time walking on all fours though. a generally hard time just getting up from being down on the ground. rebs said that she recommends to her clients that have a difficult time getting up from the ground, whenever we do get up we should do it twice. maybe if we just did twice everything that was hard in life we would have twice the amount of suffering. and then the world would be a better place for all. is that how it works? pet a dog.DOWNLOAD RECORDINGsubscribe to the podcast here: http://feeds.feedburner.com/5432fun00:00 (intro by omar)00:20 The Paranoyds “Freak Out” Eat Their Own03:43 Pleasure systems “Cautiously” Terraform07:37 Mal Blum “Things Still Left To Say” Pity Boy10:07 Bobby’s Oar “Life Fights Back” Knots EP13:20 The Glow “Lose” Am I14:50 Mr. Husband “Friends” …& The Husky Section18:00 Loamlands “Blue” Lez Dance21:54 SNAKESKIN “Toy Car” I Love My Room26:00 Russian Tsarlag “Bring Me Back Home” Out of Reach29:37 Thick paint “meridian response” a perennial approach to free time34:35 Slush “Keep Cup” Slush37:02 Brick Brick “Fill Me Up” Chip 4 Chip39:49 Sequoyah Murray “True Fun” Penalties of Love43:51 Konig “Eat Each Other Alive” House Of Prayer46:40 Lucy Roleff “Silver” Left Open in a Room49:51 Strangers “30 Day Free Trial” good enough52:13 Likes “New Pedal” New Pedal53:43 Spencer Owen Timeshare “(Biker With) a Deathwish” Presentation

Why Not Both is an exploration of how our multiple passions shape our identity, hosted by musician and therapist Pam Shaffer and produced by writer and photographer Laura Studarus. For our fifth season, we partnered up with Under The Radar to explore the lives of musicians, writers, actors, and creatives. Sometimes you have to hop into someone else's' story to better understand your own. Mal Blum learned this over the past year as they spent the majority of their time providing hospice care for their beloved next door neighbor, an elderly woman with a feisty disposition and fascinating life. Their time away from their usual routine as a touring musician inspired them to jump into new creative territories, co-writing songs with friends and trying out acting, crafting handmade benches and modeling. We are delighted to see what comes next (and not so secretly hope it's a podcast about their amazing neighbor). Listen to Mal's latest e.p. Ain't It Nice. Follow Mal on Insta and Twitter.

Twenty Summers presents Mal Blum LIVE at Truro Vineyards of Cape Cod, Truro, MA, August 14, 2021 -- Mal Blum, once dubbed “punk's greatest hidden treasure” by Stereogum, cleverly crafted songs that are are as self-effacing as they are viscerally relatable. In 2019 they released their latest full length, Pity Boy (Don Giovanni), an album that explores boundary setting and self-sabotage, and an exemplification of Mal's ability to interrogate the human condition with lyrical ingenuity. Following that, they released a 7", Nobody Waits b/w San Cristóbal, with Saddle Creek Records' Document Series in 2020.

Singer/songwriter Mal Blum pops into the blanket fort recording studio to talk shop about music and also to discuss gender. 

This week, Gaby interviews Autism advocate and technology executive Nicola Whiting about her own diagnosis, neurodiversity in the workplace, disability and neurodivergent accommodations, and the ways neuroatypical people view money differently than neurotypical people. What can employers do better to have a neurodiverse workplace? How can neurodivergent people better advocate for themselves? Then, Gaby interviews their own partner Mal Blum, a musician with ADHD, about the ways their relationship functions around both Mal's ADHD and Gaby's bipolar disorder.

Top story this week has to be the blackout that hit west Manhattan. Coming 42 years to the day after the 1977 blackout from last week's show, this year's power outage was much less dramatic and lasted only a few hours. ConEd CEO John McAvoy described the failure of both the primary and backup protection systems at a power substation at 64th Street and West End Avenue, leading to power outages once the system was interrupted by a subsequent substation at 49th Street. Although the blackout wasn't caused by a spike in electricity usage, the heat is still on in the city, with daily high temps in the 90s. In response, cooling centers have been opened across the city in senior centers, public housing, and public libraries. On July 18th, Mayor de Blasio signed a local state of emergency that calls on city government buildings and all office buildings over 100 feet tall to conserve energy and set their thermostats no lower than 78°. Temperatures are set to rise and humidity will increase, leading to heat indexes over 100° before rain arrives on July 22nd. You can do your part by turning off your air conditioner when leaving your home and using public transportation instead of driving, which will keep the air quality clear during the heat wave. If you'll be opening your windows to get some ventilation, you can install safety devices called vent locks for sash windows or metal clips for sliding windows that make sure windows can't be forced all the way open from the outside. 5 years ago on July 17, 2014 — Eric Garner dies after being put in a chokehold by NYPD officers 12 years ago on July 18, 2007 — A steam pipe explodes near Grand Central, sending debris flying and disrupting Midtown during evening rush hour 1 year ago on July 19, 2018 — A steam pipe explodes near the Flatiron Building, causing a large crater outside 141 Fifth Avenue Be aware of your surroundings during this time of year, as two of city's steam explosions have happened during just this week in history.
