Zach Heinzerling is an Academy Award-nominated and Emmy Award-winning director based in New York City. He began his career at HBO working on four consecutive Emmy Award-winning documentaries and the Emmy Award-winning series “24/7” as a Field Producer and Cinematographer. In 2012, he left HBO to complete his feature debut, the multi-award-winning film, “Cutie and the Boxer”, which he both directed and shot. “Cutie and the Boxer” was nominated for the 2014 Academy Award for Best Documentary Feature. The film also won a 2015 Emmy Award for Best Feature Documentary. In 2015 he was enlisted by Beyoncé Knowles-Carter to direct the five-part web series “Self-Titled” for her album, “Beyoncé.” In 2019 he directed an episode of “Dirty Money” for Netflix. In 2021, he directed the critically acclaimed 6-part series “McCartney 3,2,1” starring Sir Paul McCartney and Rick Rubin for Hulu.

He is also the director of “Stolen Youth: Inside the Cult of Sarah Lawrence” which the The New Yorker calls “a remarkable work, advancing the prestige true-crime genre's slow but steady reorientation toward centering victims,” while Variety raved “…with a startling rawness and directness, Heinzerling's work makes a case for itself as an unusually sensitive and strong outing in its genre.” Learn more about your ad choices.

This Legends episode spotlights Chas Chandler. He's the guy who turned Jimmy James into Jimi Hendrix. Here's the story. Chas Chandler was the bass player for the Animals, the ‘60s British Invasion band fronted by Eric Burdon, which had a string of hits in that era including “The House Of The Rising Sun”, “Don't Let Me Be Misunderstood”, “I'm Crying” and many others. They had a rougher, earthier sound than most of the other British Invasion bands. After tiring of touring nonstop with the Animals for very little money, Chandler left the band to became an artist manager. And then he got lucky. He discovered a young guitar player in a New York City club who played left-handed and who had something unique going on. He became his manager and took Jimmy James - as he was then known - to England, and introduced him to all the great English musicians. One night in particular all the greats came to see him live - McCartney, Clapton, Beck, Townshend - and they were blown away by his talent and ingenuity. Chandler put this guitarist together with two white English musicians, Noel Redding and Mitch Mitchell. And this trio emerged as the Jimi Hendrix Experience. When they came back to the U.S. they performed at the Monterey Pop Festival, and they became stars. Their first album, “Are You Experienced”, took the world by storm. Their sound was completely unique. And Hendrix's guitar playing was simply out of this world. They set off a musical Revolution. Chandler's enthusiasm, guidance and support helped fuel Hendrix during the early days. It was Chandler's idea, for example, for Hendrix to set his guitar on fire which became a staple of his live performances. Hendrix continued to soar and dominate the rock scene until his untimely death at age 27 in 1970. But keep in mind that all of this might never have happened without Chas Chandler, an unsung hero of the rock era.

Most leaders try to restore a struggling performer's confidence with a pep talk. It almost never works. When Jason McCartney had written himself off, a coach did something far more deliberate, and it pulled him back from the edge of walking away. The approach is simple, repeatable, and the opposite of what most people reach for.

Golden redemption for Eliza McCartney in the Women's pole vault at the Commonwealth Games in Glasgow. She's taking home her first major championship win after beating Australian favourite Nina Kennedy on count back after clearing 4 metres 65 in cold weather. Athletics commentator and former Olympian Sarah Cowley-Ross told Piney it was so wonderful to see Eliza on top of the podium after such a long journey in the pole vault. She thinks McCartney's entering the championships injury-free for the first time in a long time, and it really shows. LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Her core message: if you're a creator, you're running an IP business whether you realise it or not, and most people only figure that out at the worst possible moment.In this episode, Rebecca breaks down the mistakes she sees over and over, from creators treating brand deals as gifts to co-creators with no paperwork discovering the camera operator legally owns the footage.

The Strange Brew - artist stories behind the greatest music ever recorded
The Iveys came together in Swansea in the early 1960s, with Ron Griffiths on bass alongside guitarist Pete Ham. Bill Collins took over as manager, and it was during their residency at the Marquee that Beatles aide Mal Evans caught their set and carried a demo tape to Apple. Live tapes, and dozens of demos have since been unearthed from the Golders Green house where they wrote and rehearsed. Ray Davies also took an interest and recorded a handful of their songs. Tony Visconti also produced, including Ron’s ‘Dear Angie.' For Badfinger's ‘Come and Get It' Paul McCartney read an interview where Ron complained the group got nothing from The Beatles, turned up at Golders Green with a demo, and told them to copy it exactly, no changes, this is the hit. At Abbey Road with McCartney producing, it was Ron who broke the rule with a Hendrix style bass run at the end of the take. McCartney kept it in. Not long after, a domestic row over late night noise waking his baby got Ron dropped from the group, right on the cusp of its biggest success. The tapes and demos have kept surfacing, and he’s now back on lead vocals for ‘Take Good Care of My Baby' on the new album Just Look Inside The Cover – Songs of Pete Ham.

Asher remembers when Paul McCartney and John Lennon played “I Want to Hold Your Hand” for him for the first time. “I thought, am I losing my mind, or is this one of the best songs I've ever heard in my life?” McCartney, who was dating Asher's sister at the time, was living with his family. A new documentary, ‘Peter Asher: Everywhere Man,' chronicles Asher's life in the record industry. He spoke with Terry Gross about his own band in the British Invasion (Peter and Gordon), discovering James Taylor and launching Linda Ronstadt.

How can we design equitable employee benefits? Employee benefits dictate far more than basic health coverage – they're a fundamental indicator of financial security, holistic health, and overall workplace equity. Traditional plans often default to nuclear family frameworks that inadvertently disqualify equity deserving groups. By moving away from static, one-size-fits-all perks and implementing a strategic DEI lens, organizations can leverage usage data to build flexible coverage systems that shift from basic administrative compliance to a true corporate culture of human belonging. On this episode of Just One Q, Dominique chats with Kristin McCartney, Director of People & Culture at J.L. Richards & Associates. They discuss how employers can transition to data-driven, flexible frameworks when creating benefit plans. Kristin breaks down enhancements that benefit employees who are S2LGBTQ+, neurodivergent, Indigenous, first-generation professionals, or who practice certain religions. She argues that designing benefits for all signals a deeply supportive culture.

The first thing Jason McCartney asked for wasn't a doctor. It was a whiteboard. Badly injured and facing months in hospital, he didn't ask "why me?!". He set a goal, picked a deadline, and started working backwards, the same way he had for every season of his AFL career. What he learned about handling the moments that flatten everyone else is something most leaders never have to discover until it's forced on them.You can find Jason at his LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jason-mccartney-oam-b10a39217/ Use Code "PQPODCAST10" to get 10% off your Lumo Coffee order:https://lumocoffee.com/ Interested in sharing your story?

Mimmo Di Marzio"Gli insospettabili"Da Goethe a David Bowie, la pittura come seconda vitaGiunti Editorewww.giunti.itGli acquerelli nostalgici di Hermann Hesse, i ritratti rock di Paul McCartney e David Bowie, i disegni erotici di Federico Fellini, i paesaggi della campagna inglese di Winston Churchill, le litografie pop di Johnny Deep. Tanti personaggi celebri, un'unica (quasi) segreta grande passione: la pittura. Quasi un saggio romanzato, il libro racconta la storia umana e psicologica di coloro che non hanno saputo accontentarsi della propria celebrità nella letteratura, nello spettacolo o nella politica, ma hanno cercato e trovato sulla tela la via per raggiungere il proprio equilibrio interiore. Questa “necessità pittorica” ha in molti casi generato risultati sorprendenti, al punto che oggi molti di questi artisti paralleli sono finiti nelle collezioni dei musei o nelle grandi collezioni private. Il libro si snoda attraverso una serie di ritratti che narrano, non senza aneddoti divertenti e immagini delle opere, il percorso avventuroso da outsider nell'affascinante mondo dell'arte.Mimmo Di Marzio è giornalista, critico d'arte, curatore e pittore. Da molti anni firma le pagine culturali de Il Giornale, dove si occupa di arte e di mercato dell'arte. È stato docente di Editoria per l'Arte all'Accademia di Brera e ha al suo attivo numerosi saggi critici. Come curatore ha firmato mostre in sedi prestigiose — tra cui il Castello Sforzesco di Milano (Homo Faber), lo Spazio Oberdan e la Fondazione Stelline — spaziando dall'arte contemporanea alla street e lowbrow art. Affianca all'attività critica una propria ricerca pittorica, presentata in personali come Vite parallele. Nel maggio 2026 ha pubblicato per Giunti Gli insospettabili. Da Goethe a David Bowie, la pittura come seconda vita, saggio narrativo dedicato a personaggi celebri che hanno coltivato l'arte come "seconda vita" creativa.Diventa un supporter di questo podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/il-posto-delle-parole--1487855/support.IL POSTO DELLE PAROLEascoltare fa pensarehttps://ilpostodelleparole.it/

In this episode, we've collected listener feedback on Paul McCartney's The Boys of Dungeon Lane, summarizing four core themes: the album as a slow burner that rewards repeat listens, praise as a surprising triumph for his age, debates about vocal tone and production, and a perceived lack of McCartney-style whimsy. We also highlight listener comments on standout tracks (e.g., "Life Can Be Hard"), track-by-track reactions, and a discussion of album variants and collector culture, concluding that overall fan response is positive and emotionally resonant. -Check out albums to buy, including The Boys of Dungeon Lane, in our Amazon store!

I call it The Daily Mess. A chronological walk through an everyday world. Yes, it's my morning writing.

“I do live here and now, but I often think about the past. But then again, I think a lot of people do. So I think writers, what are they going to draw on?”Mark Savage speaks to musician Paul McCartney.Born in Liverpool, England, during the Second World War, he found fame as a member of the legendary British band The Beatles in the 1960s, widely regarded as one of the most influential acts in music history.McCartney shared primary singing and songwriting duties with bandmate John Lennon, and along with George Harrison and Ringo Starr, the four-piece became a global pop music sensation with hits such as Twist and Shout, Yesterday and Hey Jude.They remain one of the best-selling musical acts of all time alongside the likes of Elvis Presley and Michael Jackson.McCartney was knighted for his services to music in 1997, but despite his huge achievements, the 83-year-old seems to be showing no interest in retirement — he's releasing his 19th solo album.The Boys of Dungeon Lane is inspired by his experiences growing up in post-war Liverpool, during which a young McCartney, carrying a guitar and wearing a bowler hat to catch attention, would hitchhike with John Lennon to places as far away as Paris.

"The new owners of Fender since 2020 are attempting to own the copyright on the Stratocaster body. A German court has taken them part of the way but most experts don't believe it will hold up to scrutiny. Nonetheless, Fender has sent Cease and Desist letters to multiple guitar makers telling them to stop production, call back orders and destroy stock. Fender may have just committed brand suicide because history is not on their side."
Ken Dashow and Producer Andrew discuss the ups, downs and cloaked references on Paul McCartney's reflective new album, 'The Boys of Dungeon Lane.' His first album in years, McCartney has filled the record with references to his youth, his family and his greatest friends. At almost 84, it's hard to interpret Macca's nostalgic turn as anything but an attempt to tie up some of the hanging threads of his life and leave a lasting 'thank you' to everything he's loved about his life.

Boys of Dungeon Lane, McCartney's collaboration with producer Andrew Watt, arrived when McCartney was 83 and and he came out swinging: the opening track greets listeners with a dissonant, unresolved guitar chord that sets the album's tone. Harmonic instability runs through the entire record: chromatic mediants, deceptive cadences, and persistent pedal tones prevent even the most nostalgic songs from settling into comfort. The album's lyrics focus on McCartney's pre-Beatles Liverpool youth, territory unfamiliar even to long-time fans. The songs pay deliberate sonic tribute to specific Beatles recordings: Mellotron strings echoing "Strawberry Fields Forever," a backwards laugh tape loop answering "Tomorrow Never Knows," a first-ever McCartney/Starr vocal duet so close in timbre the two voices are nearly indistinguishable.

"It is no secret that music contracts can be rather brutal on artists. Often the stories focus on not getting paid but there is also the interesting idea of a lawsuit ordering a musician to fill his or her contract and record what we are calling a court ordered album. We have multiple examples plus one where the band was paid NOT to record an album."
"Sony Music Publishing confirmed an agreement to acquire Blackstone's Recognition Music Group catalog for $3.5 billion. The Red Hot Chili Peppers just sold their catalog for $300 million. Other Funds are raising billions to start buying. These buyers are called Music Rights Funds. I became interested in how these Funds actually made money. How does one invest and can I sell my own music. I have the answers for you."
"The New York Times released their 30 Greatest Living American Songwriters list a short while ago. I know online lists usually have some click bait to start conversation but this list was overtly egregious. Not for who was on it. It was who was left off. We will go over the list and play some artists that should have been on there."

Paul McCartney's incredible career began more than 60 years ago when he formed The Beatles with John Lennon, George Harrison, and Ringo Starr. Now, he's out with his latest solo album "The Boys of Dungeon Lane". In this week's Sitdown, Willie Geist gets together with McCartney to talk about his new music, that includes a song with The Beatles members. And McCartney talks about performing in Stephen Colbert's final "The Late Show" which happened to be on the same stage the Beatles had their American debut in 1964.

Paul McCartney got dragged for writing “silly love songs” and then turned the criticism into a No. 1 anthem. We start with that 1976 chart run, the irony baked into the lyrics, and the way one summertime hit can glue itself to your memory, right down to the bicentennial vibe and what was playing everywhere you went. From there we jump 50 years forward to McCartney closing out Saturday Night Live with Will Ferrell, and we get real about what it means to watch a living legend perform at 83. We talk vocals, stamina, song selection, and why it matters that Paul isn't trying to “fix” aging with tech. Then the night gets even better: the Chad Smith confusion joke, the classic Ferrell deadpan, and the surprise after-show energy where cowbell and Beatles staples (“Help” and “Drive My Car”) light up the room. We round things out with what we're listening to now and what still holds up, including our new “What's Mooving Me” pick from Drivin N Cryin, plus “Minute with Jimmy” on The Rolling Stones' “In the Stars.” That opens the door to Sticky Fingers at Muscle Shoals, the legacy issues around “Brown Sugar,” the story behind “Wild Horses,” and a quick run through Heart, Yoko Ono, Pet Shop Boys, and Depeche Mode's media critique in “New Dress.” If you like classic rock history, pop culture moments, and music talk that's equal parts funny and thoughtful, subscribe, share this with a friend, and leave a review so more listeners can find us.

durée : 00:03:54 - Les Matins de France Culture - par : Zoé Sfez - À 83 ans, Paul McCartney publie un nouvel album hanté par Liverpool, les débuts et les fantômes de John Lennon. Entre nostalgie assumée et éclats de rock encore vifs, ce 20ᵉ album solo n'est pas son meilleur, mais contient quelques chefs-d'œuvre et rappelle tout ce qu'on lui doit. Vous aimez ce podcast ?

Sanskrit-Speaking' Villages, Linguistic Utopias and the Metaphysics of Development (Routledge, 2026) is a recollection of the McCartney's journey across 'Sanskritland, ' which is the term coined to refer to the utopian landscape within which the 'Language of the Gods' is thought to be spoken. There are three destinations on the author's journey. This study sheds light on how, why, and where Sanskrit is spoken in the twenty-first century, the complex and dynamic historical and contemporary that have allowed this, and how both yoga and Sanskrit are instruments for development and soft-power projects. This book is an essential read for scholars and students of linguistic anthropology, Indology, and sustainable development. Learn more about your ad choices.
