Do The Talking Heads, the quinessential art school band of the East Village scene of the 1970's, still matter? Very much so. At least according to the band's biographer, Jonathan Gould, who believes that The Talking Heads remain "the archetype of what we now think of as the alternative rock group" - a band prioritizing aesthetic evolution over commercial success. Born from New York's affordable cultural moment when rent cost $275 and abandoned industrial spaces fostered creativity, Talking Heads, Gould argues in Burning the House Down, emerged as agnostic questioners of rock conventions. They rejected "rock hair, rock lights, and singing like a black man," creating minimalist performances under stark white lighting. Their 1984 film "Stop Making Sense" appears utterly modern today, Gould says, suggesting their systematic deconstruction of musical expectations continues influencing artists four decades later. Five Key Takeaways 1. The Agnostic Approach Talking Heads were "agnostic about everything" - not just religion, but romantic love, rock conventions, and musical preconceptions. This systematic questioning of accepted norms became their defining creative principle.2. Class and Ambition Shaped Their Art Unlike working-class rock predecessors, they were privileged art school graduates who grew up expecting to "be something." This background fostered artistic ambition over simple commercial success, making them prototypes of the alternative rock ethos.3. New York's Economic Crisis Created Cultural Opportunity The city's 1970s near-bankruptcy made it affordable ($275/month rent) for young artists. The exodus of residents and businesses left vast industrial spaces available, enabling an unprecedented downtown cultural scene.4. Minimalism as Rebellion Their aesthetic rebellion involved subtraction, not addition - "no rock hair, no rock lights, no long guitar solos." Working with Brian Eno, they removed rather than added tracks, creating space through restraint.5. Timeless Modernity "Stop Making Sense" appears contemporary today because they focused on modernity rather than trends. Their systematic rejection of rock clichés created work that transcends its 1980s origins, explaining their continued influence on alternative music.Jonathan Gould is a writer and a former professional musician. Born and raised in New York City, he began playing drums in high school and became serious about it while attending Cornell University, which led him to move to Boston in 1975 to study with the eminent jazz drummer Alan Dawson. He went on to spend many years working in bands and recording studios in Boston, Woodstock, and New York City before turning his full attention to writing about music in the early 1990s under the mentorship of the retired New Yorker editor William Shawn. In addition to his playing and writing about music, Jonathan also raised a family, served in local politics, and took an active role in the life of the upstate New York community where he lived for twenty-five years. He currently divides his time between Williamsburg, Brooklyn, and Livingston, NY.Keen On America is a reader-supported publication.

Send us a textWhat happens when a physician's analytical mind meets the boundless creativity of photography? Tara Workman, a nature photographer from Barbados now living in the Pacific Northwest, joins us to share her extraordinary journey through art, medicine, and the world of NFTs.Tara's path to becoming a celebrated photographer began with a simple challenge from her husband to learn how to properly use her camera before buying a new one. That small nudge ignited a passion that would transform her creative life. Despite her success, Tara describes herself as naturally introverted—more like a watchful cougar than her husband's labrador-like enthusiasm—preferring to observe carefully before engaging.The conversation reveals Tara's initial skepticism toward NFTs during the frenzied market of 2021. She candidly shares how the pressure to constantly promote herself clashed with her authentic nature, leading to a brief hiatus from the space. Upon returning in 2022, she committed to approaching her art with more authenticity, finding her rhythm in the community while staying true to her unique vision.Most compelling is Tara's insight into how the creative process evolves. When facing a creative block, she stepped completely outside her comfort zone by experimenting with acrylic painting. Though initially disappointed with the results, she discovered unexpected beauty by photographing microscopic sections of these "failed" paintings with her macro lens. This serendipitous process birthed "The Art of Letting Go," her new series that has resonated deeply with collectors even in the current market.Throughout our conversation, Tara offers wisdom for fellow artists: remember why you create, resist the temptation to follow trends, and recognize when external validation begins to influence your creative decisions. Her journey reminds us that the most meaningful art often emerges when we embrace uncertainty and remain open to unexpected possibilities.Join us for this thought-provoking conversation about finding your authentic voice in a noisy world. Whether you're an artist, collector, or simply curious about the creative process, Tara's insights will inspire you to see beauty in unexpected places.Support the show

Today's episode, “De-Influenced: The Power of Minimalism in a World of Exhausting Consumerism,” with host, Lindsey Maestas, and author and mom-of-four Julia Ubbenga, invites listeners to consider the freedom found in having less stuff. They talk about the temptation of Influencer hauls, consumer culture, how clothes in your closet can suck joy and peace from you, and so much more.

We also give practical tips for simplifying daily life as busy moms, the mental load of parenting, and how saying no to excess has helped her say yes to what truly matters. The abundant life Jesus promises often begins with subtraction. Whether you're drowning in toys, trapped in comparison on Instagram, or just craving more peace in your home and marriage, this episode will remind you that less really can be more.

In this episode, Shira Gill, author of Lifestyle: Your Guide to a More Organized and Intentional Life, joins the show to discuss her approach to minimalism and intentional living. Shira, a professional organizer, shares how she applies the principles of minimalism not just to physical possessions but to all aspects of life—helping to create space for what truly matters. In this conversation, we explore: The Meaning of Minimalism: Shira discusses how minimalism is not just about owning less but being radically intentional with your time, energy, and resources, and how it helps to clarify your values and priorities. The Power of Volume, Systems, and Habits: We dive into Shira's toolkit for simplifying life, which includes managing the volume of commitments, setting up simple systems, and creating sustainable habits that align with your goals. The Volume Problem: Shira explains why many people's clutter and stress aren't about disorganization, but about the sheer volume of things they're trying to manage, and how reducing that volume can be transformative. Creating Simple Systems for Busy Lives: We discuss how simple, intuitive systems (like Shira's easy filing method) can save time, reduce friction, and maintain order without overwhelming yourself with complexity. The Importance of Saying No: Shira emphasizes the importance of recognizing when to say no to commitments, distractions, and activities that don't align with your core values, which is critical for maintaining clarity and energy. Shira's insights provide practical strategies to help you simplify your home, work, and life, creating the space and time needed for what really matters.

Minimalism isn't about cold white walls, tossing your kid's favorite toys when they're not looking, or never buying another throw pillow again. It's about being radically intentional with your space, your time, and your money — and learning how to clear what's cluttering your life, both physically and emotionally.

Whether your kitchen counter is your current catch-all or your closet is basically a time capsule, this episode will help you get unstuck and start fresh — no color-coded labels required.

In this chat, we dive into Sarah Horgan's journey toward intentional living and minimalism, which was sparked by her battle with stage four cancer. She talks about how perfectionism and people-pleasing shaped her life, and how mindfulness and emotional health became key in her transformation. Sarah explains how minimalism became a deeply personal journey, not just about physical stuff, but about self-awareness, emotional healing, and simplifying life for more fulfillment. We also discuss her experience with the challenges of motherhood, highlighting the importance of self-forgiveness, the impact of consumerism, and how minimalism plays a role in parenting.Sarah Horgan of Simple + Intentional is a coach, teacher, wife, and mom to a 6-year-old, passionate about living simply. Her journey to simplicity began in 2014 when she was diagnosed with stage 4 cancer, which led her to deep self-reflection. Over time, she realized that perfectionism and people-pleasing weren't serving her, sparking a shift toward simplicity. Becoming a mom further pushed her toward minimalism out of necessity, as she navigated the challenges of parenting without family support. By decluttering her home, she found it easier to maintain a calm, organized space, which allowed her to focus on internal growth. Sarah's mission is to help others simplify their lives, let go of unnecessary clutter, and prioritize what truly matters.Guest Links Web: https://www.simpleintentional.com/IG: http://instagram.com/simpleintentional/Chapters00:00 The Journey to Intentional Living08:51 Mindfulness and Emotional Health18:10 The Deeper Meaning of Minimalism23:59 Practical Steps to Declutter and Simplify29:40 Navigating Body Image and Self-Care34:16 The Journey of Self-Forgiveness39:39 Minimalism and Motherhood44:15 Spring Cleaning: A Fresh Start48:29 Rapid Fire Reflections-----------------CONTACT US: sustainthispodcast@gmail.comJOIN OUR PATREON: https://www.patreon.com/SustainThisPodcast SIGNE HANSENYoutube: https://www.youtube.com/@UseLess_dkWebsite: https://www.uselesswardrobe.dk/IG: https://www.instagram.com/useless_dk/TT: https://www.tiktok.com/@useless_wardrobeCHRISTINA MYCHASYoutube: https://www.youtube.com/@ChristinamychasWebsite: https://www.minimalist-ish.com/IG: https://www.instagram.com/christina.mychas/TT: https://www.tiktok.com/@christina.mychasALYSSA BELTEMPOYoutube: https://www.youtube.com/@AlyssaBeltempoWebsite: https://msbeltempo.com/IG: https://www.instagram.com/msbeltempo/TT: https://www.tiktok.com/@msbeltempo If you loved this episode please share it on your stories and tag us!

Coleman of The Minimalists Podcast to uncover the deeper meaning behind minimalism and why it's about so much more than just owning less.

What it really means to say “yes” to a life that energizes and fulfills you T.K. shares a powerful reminder: “It's not about how many things you have or don't have… it's about what you're willing to let go of in order to say yes to the life you really want.” Whether you're just starting your minimalist journey or looking to deepen your understanding, this episode will inspire you to reflect, realign, and move forward with greater clarity and purpose.

Most self-help advice makes me cringe. Vision boards, “manifesting,” and the whole daily affirmation thing? Yeah, I've always put that in the woo-woo category. But lately, I've been stuck in my head, wrestling with self-doubt, perfectionism, and the classic case of overthinking everything. So I decided to try something that made me deeply uncomfortable: staring at myself in the mirror and saying things like “I am enough.” And no, I didn't spontaneously combust from secondhand embarrassment. In this episode, I test daily affirmations for a week, even the corny ones, and rope my wife into writing a few that are, well, questionable at best.For more go to: www.scottmlynch.comLevel up your life by joining my Patreon where you'll get exclusive content every week and more badass offerings (rips t-shirt in half, Hulk Hogan style, and runs around the room). And/or…Unlock practical and tactical insights on how to master your mindset and optimize your happiness directly to your inbox.If you're a glutton for punishment and want more swift kicks in the mind follow me on social:InstagramYouTubeLeave a review and tell me how I suck so I can stop doing that or you can also tell me about things you like.

On this week's show, we welcome back our good friend and Charlotte Magazine back page columnist Jen Tota-McGivney to talk about her new book, Finding Your Walden: How to Strive Less, Simplify More & Embrace What Matters Most. All this & much, much less! Debts No Honest Man Can Pay is a podcast that thinks it's a radio show...because it used to be one. The show started in 2003 at WHFR-FM (Dearborn, MI), moved to WGWG-FM (Boiling Springs, NC) in 2006 & Plaza Midwood Community Radio (Charlotte, NC) in 2012, with a brief pit-stop at WLFM-FM (Appleton, WI) in 2004. It phoenixed into a podcast in 2020, thanks to the fine and fabulously furious folks at NRM Streamcast.

Episode 3603: Colin Wright challenges our relationship with possessions, urging us to ask whether the things we own genuinely serve us or simply weigh us down. By fostering self-reliance and internal contentment, we can enjoy life's offerings without becoming dependent on them, creating a richer, more intentional existence. Read along with the original article(s) here: http://exilelifestyle.com/valuable & http://exilelifestyle.com/live Quotes to ponder: "Most ideally, the things we own are mere additions to a fulfilled existence." "Will I feel better knowing this money is there, in the bank, available at need in the future, or will I feel better knowing I've spent it, the money lost to me forever, on this thing?" "If you can find your happiness internally, your satisfaction with life derived from how you experience the world, not in the experiences themselves, then your quality of life is determined by you, not some external factor."

In this second half of last week's discussion, Kelly and Lauren open up about the messy, real side of living a minimalist lifestyle. You will continue to be reminded that living a Minimalist lifestyle is about surrounding yourself with what you need and love and letting go of the rest.
