Vorige week was Moody Blueszanger en -gitarist Justin Hayward voor twee concerten in ons land. Kort daarvoor overleed zijn vriend, Moody Blues-bassist en zanger John Lodge. Alle redenen om in deze podcast naar de Moody Blues te kijken en de rol van deze twee, en vooral die van Hayward in die band te kijken.
Ouverture d'émission par un hommage, encore...Cette fois, c'est John Lodge, le bassiste des MOODY BLUES qui s'en est allé tutoyer les étoiles ce 10 octobre, il avait 82 ans. S'il n'en était pas membre fondateur, il était très vite devenu un élément essentiel suite à un changement de personnel deux ans seulement après la création du groupe qu'il rejoindra avec Justin Hayward en 1966. La musique classique s'invitera dans les compositions et arrangements de Moody Blues, direction les routes de ce qu'on appellera plus tard... le rock progressif. Extrait dans ce numéro de l'album "To Our Children's Children's Children" paru en 1969 et un titre fort à propos et composé notamment par John... Puisque nous sommes dans les légendes de sa Majesté, un certain PAUL MCCARTNEY, certes le Grand Maca ne fait pas spécialement dans le rock prog, mais c'est un touche à tout, et c'est en réécoutant cette semaine son album "Chaos And Creation In The Backyard" (l'un de mes préférés ! ) que j'ai eu envie de partager un extrait avec vous et j'ai choisi un titre somme toute, pas complètement hors de propos ici... Un (petit) YES, pour se faire plaisir avec un extrait de l'album "TORMATO" paru en 1978, dont la pochette n'est pas (pour la 2ème fois consécutive) attribuée à Roger Dean mais à Hipgnosis, célèbre collectif de graphistes anglais avec le fameux Storm Thorgerson. Mais le rendu n'était pas à la hauteur des attentes du groupe, puisque la légende veut que son claviériste Rick Wakeman mécontent du visuel proposé, lui jettera une tomate (sur le visuel, pas sur Storm ! ) L'album qui devait s'intituler "Yes Tor", deviendra un mix de "Tor" et de "Tomato" (tomate) et la pochette conservera le graphisme original gratifié de la solanacée écrasée...Yes qui par ailleurs est en pleine tournée américaine pour célébrer l'album "Fragile" et dont son vétéran, le guitariste Steve Howe, s'apprête à publier un EP vinyle en tirage très limité (qui devrait toutefois sortir sur les plateformes) consacré à Bob Dylan... En parlant d'Hipgnosis, on associe forcément ce nom à PINK FLOYD dont la quasi intégralité du catalogue est signé de cette boite mythique ! Et quand deux mythes se rencontrent : un visuel parfait pour représenter l'absence, thème d'un album majeur (voire pour beaucoup le meilleur) du Floyd, on obtient "Wish You Were Here". Vous le savez, depuis la fin de saison dernière on revient sur cet album dans l'ordre des morceaux. Depuis la rentrée nous en sommes à la face B et dans ce numéro c'est au tour de la chanson-titre d'être mise à l'honneur. Fans du groupe préparez vous à mettre la main à la poche, depuis que Sony s'est offert le catalogue des anciens de Cambridge, ils doivent chercher à rentabiliser leur investissement ! Bref, une nouvelle édition spéciale 50 ans paraîtra le 12 décembre prochain sous différent formats (CD, digital, LP, Blu-ray, coffret) avec des démos et versions inédites (en plus des quelques unes déjà parues dans la réédition de 2011) et un bootleg live à Los Angeles de 1975 restauré et remixé par un certain... Steven Wilson... Je parlais de musique classique intégrée au rock des Moody Blues, ce qui fut la même tendance chez leurs collègues du BARCLAY JAMES HARVEST qu'on réecoute toujours avec beaucoup de plaisir, ici avec un extrait de leur 2ème opus "Once Again" ce qui nous amène à l'année 1971... Pour limiter ce vertige temporel, quelques anglais contemporains mais également talentueux comme NICK FLETCHER considéré par un certain Steve Hackett (Genesis) comme le meilleur guitariste rock/jazz du Royaume de Sa Majesté, rien que ça ! Il faut dire que Nick nous entraine dans une fusion efficace, ici autour d'un concept à propos de "La Persona", théorie du psychiatre suisse, Carl Jung selon laquelle un individu présente un visage social au monde pour donner une certaine impression et cacher sa vraie nature, ce qui donne pour titre à cet album concept :"The Mask Of Sanity". C'est tout nouveau et fort recommandé par votre serviteur (qui fait de la radio pour éviter de mettre un masque ! ) Il n'y a pas que les anglais dans la vie ! La Pologne par exemple nous gratifie de belles formations rock prog que vous pouvez parfois entendre dans cette émission ! Ainsi PINN DROPP qui vient de publier son 4ème album (après un EP numérique à leur débuts en 2017). "For The Love Of Drama" est le titre de cette galette toute chaude, et là encore c'est un régal pour les cages à miel ! Et puis l'Italie, avec RANESTRANE, ce groupe formé en 1998, inspiré par leurs aînée Goblin ou PFM mais aussi par les cousins britanniques Genesis ou Marillion... Marillion dont deux représentants (le guitariste Steve Rothery et le chanteur Steve Hogarth) ont ramené leurs talents sur l'album inspiré de Stanley Kubrick et son "2001, L'Odyssée de L'Espace". Ici extrait du 1er volet de la trilogie consacrée à l'œuvre Kubrickienne : "A Space Odyssey Vol.1", paru en 2018 avec la guitare de Mr Rothery sur le titre diffusé ce soir... En France, nous ne sommes pas en reste avec deux générations dans ce numéro. Celle de ANGE, avec un 2ème extrait du tout nouvel album fort réussi "Cunégonde", album qui sera entièrement présenté au cours de la saison ! Pendant ce temps là, le groupe poursuit sa tournée "Quitter la Meute", vérifiez les dates près de chez vous. Pour notre belle région, il faudra attendre le 13 février 2026 (Tours) ou le mois de mars pour la Bretagne mais on en reparlera d'ici là ! Enfin, l'espoir de voir briller le rock progressif français passe aussi par la jeune génération et je mise notamment beaucoup sur "PLEDGE OF HEALING" dont "One Step Closer" le 1er album a fait les belles soirées d'Amarok en 2023. Fondé par Claire et Cyril, le projet ne peut et ne doit pas en rester là ! La bonne nouvelle c'est que le groupe est entré en résidence et semble avoir du boulot sur la planche...Tant mieux, je ne sais pas vous mais j'espère et rêve de connaître une suite discographique à l'aventure....

From Birmingham to the Rock Hall: the life, legacy, and love of Moody Blues bassist John Lodge.John Lodge (July 20, 1943 – October 10, 2025) was far more than the bass player for The Moody Blues — he was the gentle soul and musical anchor behind one of rock's most beloved bands. With his distinctive melodic bass, soaring harmonies, and thoughtful songwriting, Lodge helped turn The Moody Blues from a struggling R&B group into pioneers of symphonic and progressive rock.Born in Birmingham, John grew up surrounded by the post-war explosion of British music. He joined The Moody Blues in 1966, along with guitarist Justin Hayward, just as the band was ready to reinvent itself. Together they reshaped the group's direction, moving away from covers and pop singles toward the lush, conceptual sound that would define the late 1960s. Their first major success, Days of Future Passed (1967), blended rock with classical orchestration and produced the timeless hit “Nights in White Satin.” Lodge's basslines and harmonies underpinned that transformation — a sound that felt cinematic, emotional, and deeply human.Over the next five decades, John Lodge's touch could be felt across The Moody Blues' greatest works. He wrote and sang enduring tracks like “Ride My See-Saw,” “Isn't Life Strange,” and “I'm Just a Singer (In a Rock and Roll Band),” each one showcasing his knack for combining big ideas with irresistible hooks. While the band explored spirituality, time, and love through albums like In Search of the Lost Chord and A Question of Balance, Lodge kept their music grounded with rhythmic depth and melodic grace.As The Moody Blues evolved through the 1970s and 1980s, Lodge remained the band's creative backbone. His songwriting and stage presence were steady and sincere, and his partnership with Hayward became one of rock's most enduring collaborations. The group's music inspired generations, selling over 70 million albums and securing their place as one of the most influential acts in British rock history. In 2018, their induction into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame marked the culmination of that extraordinary journey — a moment Lodge often described as “the completion of a dream we started as kids.”Even after The Moody Blues stopped touring in 2018, John Lodge's creative fire never dimmed. He continued recording and performing with his “10,000 Light Years Band,” revisiting classic Moody Blues songs while writing new ones that carried his message of faith and hope. His solo projects included B Yond (2019), The Royal Affair and After (2021), and Days of Future Passed – My Sojourn (2023), a heartfelt reinterpretation of the Moody Blues' 1967 masterpiece. His final release, Love Conquers All (2025), and the moving single “Whispering Angels,” co-written with his son-in-law Jon Davison of Yes, captured Lodge's optimism and belief in love's enduring power.Offstage, John Lodge lived a grounded life. Married to his wife Kirsten since 1968, he was a devoted husband and father to their children, Emily and Kristian. His song “Emily's Song” remains one of his most tender creations, written as a gift for his daughter and cherished by fans for its emotional honesty. Lodge often credited his Christian faith with keeping him centered through the highs and lows of fame, and he spoke often about gratitude — for music, family, and the fans who shared the journey with him.John Lodge passed away on October 10, 2025, at age 82, surrounded by family and the sounds of The Everly Brothers and Buddy Holly — the artists who first inspired him. His passing marked the end of an era, but his spirit lives on in the music that continues to inspire listeners around the world.From Birmingham stages to the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame, John Lodge's story is one of faith, friendship, and timeless creativity. He reminded us that true artistry isn't about chasing fame — it's about touching hearts. And through every note he played, he did exactly that.
RUNDOWN Was this the single greatest weekend in Seattle sports history? Mitch and Hotshot relive Friday night's 15-inning epic at T-Mobile Park as the Mariners advanced to the ALCS — Hotshot shares his in-stadium perspective, spilled beer and all, describing the crowd as “ear-splitting, like 1995 all over again.” Mitch calls Bryce Miller's Game 1 masterpiece in Toronto “legendary” and compares it to the Mariners' own must-win over Detroit. Then comes the forgotten hero of the weekend: Washington QB Damon Williams Jr., whose 538-yard, four-touchdown night went largely unseen while fans watched baseball on their phones. Add in the Seahawks' 20–12 win over Jacksonville (seven sacks despite missing key defenders), a Kraken overtime winner, and even Humpy the Salmon's long-awaited race victory — and Mitch declares it “the most joy-filled Seattle weekend in decades.” Mitch welcomes Joe Doyle (Over Slot) and Brady Farkas (Refuse to Lose Podcast) after Seattle's gritty 3–1 win to open the ALCS in Toronto — a game nobody expected them to take. The trio break down Bryce Miller's six-inning gem on three days' rest, the early escape that steadied him, and how his righty-righty splitter and held-velocity heater set the tone. They praise the bullpen trio of Spire, Brash, and Muñoz, the clutch base-running by Randy Arozarena, and Cal Raleigh's homer that flipped the energy of the entire series. Mitch is joined by Brady Henderson (ESPN.com) and Jacson Bevens (Cigar Thoughts) after the Seahawks' 20-12 road win over Jacksonville — a cross-country statement built on a revived pass rush and Sam Darnold's continued efficiency. The trio break down Byron Murphy's monster day (2 sacks, 7 pressures), a seven-sack team effort that could've reached double digits, and the coaching adjustments Mike McDonald made one week after the Tampa Bay meltdown. They highlight Darnold's nearly flawless 295-yard, 2-TD outing and debate whether he's already a top-tier QB in the NFC. CBS analyst Rick Neuheisel joins Mitch after witnessing Indiana's stunning 30–20 win over Oregon in Eugene — the Hoosiers' first-ever road win over a top-five team. Rick praises head coach Kurt Signetti for his “keep-it-inside” defensive discipline and authenticity, calling him “hotter than Texas chili” as Penn State's likely next target after James Franklin's firing. They discuss the money storm brewing in the Big Ten's upcoming $2.4 billion media deal, why booster influence now drives coaching turnover, and how NIL has reshaped the sport's economy. Rick breaks down SEC chaos after Auburn's controversial finish versus Georgia, the Texas rebound behind Steve Sarkisian, and why parity is spreading as defensive-line depth thins across power programs. Mitch “plants his spear” for Washington QB Damon Williams Jr., claiming him for Taco Time's Doing Some Work honors after a 538-yard night, while Rick awards his crispy burritos to Texas A&M's defense — 2-for-33 on third downs over three games.

This week, before Frankie and I begin taking a look at "Best Last Albums," we'll begin the show with a fitting tribute to the late John Lodge of the Moody Blues, who passed away late last week at the age of 82. What great songs he wrote for us, including "Isn't Life Strange," "Ride My See-Saw" and "I'm just a Singer in a Rock 'n Roll Band." Then in our new Feature, "Best Last Albums, this week it's "In Through the Out Door" by Led Zeppelin.
Meghan & Not-a-Prince Harry win another fake award, Bill Burr strains to explain to Conan, Ed Gein the influencer, angry Katie Porter, Criss Angel, Mark Sanchez, a bad sports weekend, menstrual cycle gambling, Presidential libraries, Drew Crime, and the best "day of the week" songs. Dan Dickerson had an oopsie on an open mic after the Detroit Tigers' 15-inning loss to the Seattle Mariners in Game 5 of the ALDS. Everyone supports Dan because we all feel the same. Obituary time: Sister Jean passes away only 2 weeks into retirement. Diane Keaton surprised people by dying.Moody Blues bassist-singer John Lodge expired at 82. Drew was wondering which day of the week has the best songs with that day in the title. Sunday and Tuesday are strong contenders. No one likes Wednesdays. Penn State fires head football coach James Franklin. Michigan embarrassed by USC. There were a lot of Top 25 college football teams that were beat this weekend. Bill Belichick and UNC seem like a disaster despite what he tells Kirk Herbstreit. Rolling Stone dropped a big story on how FanDuel and DraftKings have helped create a bunch of young gaming addicts. The hot new thing to gamble on is the WNBA based on the players menstrual cycles. The Detroit Tigers' season is over. We tried avoiding it, but we break down the Game 5 ALDS loss. Ed Gein Episode 8 is a horrifying laugh riot. Ed was one of the first influencers. Too bad it involved murdering and necrophilia. The John Candy documentary dropped on Amazon Prime. Drew Crime: 20/20 featured the avoidable murder of Denise Amber Lee. Not to be outdone, Dateline covered the murder of gay art dealer Clifford Lambert. Bill Burr is still defending his participation in the Riyadh Comedy Festival in Saudi Arabia. Not-a-prince Harry and Me-Me-Me Meghan Markle win a humanitarian award for some reason. They were very icy towards each other. D4vd transferred his houses to his mother while questions surround his involvement in the death of Celeste Rivas. Katie Perry and Justin Trudeau are getting it on... again. Drew is starting to feel sorry for Joe Biden. Who goes to presidential libraries? Jennifer Aniston is full of it in her new interview with Harper's Bazaar. She's also trying to sound really deep. Criss Angel dumps his "narcissist" wife in a very petty way. Former US Rep and current California gubernatorial candidate Katie Porter has some major anger issues. No one made her more angry than her "idiot" husband. The whole timeline of the Mark Sanchez stabbing is finally being revealed. Defense attorneys are gaslighting everyone: Jose Baez on Mark Sanchez, Karen Read's lawyer Alan Jackson in the Pepperdine murder case, and former LSU WR Kyren Lacy's fatal crash.

John Lodge of the iconic British rock band The Moody Blues has died at age 82. Here are two recent conversations from our archives: John Landecker – February 24, 2025 Antenna TV’s Nostalgia Stories podcast
I feel like I see more acutely than ever into the backing track of human experience. There is the "outside" of how our lives are going within givens and events, but then there is the "backing track" -- the enabling part, the staying part, the... well, the (kind of) Eternal Part. The two parts, the outside and the backing track, are separate. "Phosphorus" is a word one sometimes uses for this, but listening to an old Beach Boys song from 1973 brought it home so beautifully. You hear a number of "stanzas", and then (at least twice, maybe three times) a keyboard-driven bridge -- a melody that puts you right through the roof emotionally. It summons almost automatically the mood you'd want to have surrounding you when you are dying. Moreover, the voiced imperative at the end, "Sail on, sail on, sailor", is exactly what I need. I don't need someone to help me find 'new purpose', something to plant me in the now again, when my spirits are low. I need, as Meister Eckhart wrote in 1312, to experience the following: "If you are looking for God, go back to where you lost Him." To put that in slightly more horizontal terms -- tho' even its horizontal transcription is really Vertical -- "If you are looking for who you are meant to be, go back to where you really were yourself". Incidentally, that was probably not in connection with your career or your cause. It was more likely in connection with a certain someone. People sometimes think I'm overdoing it when I underline the centrality of romantic connection in life. I don't believe I am. The main reason one underlines that dimension is, well, ... popular music. It's not news to anyone reading this, that 97.5% of all rock songs, from the very beginning (i.e., Elvis and Bo Diddley and Chuck Berry and Link Wray and Joe Meek), concern romantic love. Not 65% or even 85%, but 97.5%. Think about that. I mean, really, let that sink in. Anyway, if you want to find God (i.e., your way forward, as opposed to your way backward -- to inertia, bitterness, and cascading negativity as the years go on), go back to... the song you remember from that time you first came out of yourself. Whether the person you were with when you first heard that song is alive or dead, present or out there (Moody Blues, 1988), that moment is eternal. It is still present. It is still your empirical guide to... the New You. Podcast 406 is dedicated to Sam Everette.
In deze aflevering praat Ed Struijlaart met de Britse gitaarvirtuoos Mike Dawes.Mike vertelt over zijn unieke vier-pickup systeem, hoe hij zijn akoestische gitaar laat klinken als een heel band, en over zijn tours met Tommy Emmanuel en Justin Hayward van The Moody Blues.Het gesprek gaat niet alleen over gear — Mike deelt ook zijn visie op muziek maken in een tijd waarin alles om views en virale hits lijkt te draaien. “The songs that make people forget their mortgage,” zegt hij.

The New Orleans rock band Zebra has always existed out of time. Despite having one of the fastest selling debuts in Atlantic Records' history, Zebra never really fit in with the glammed up ‘80s metal bands they were being lumped in with on the pages and airwaves of Hit Parader and MTV. But that apparent inability to fit in may be exactly what endeared them to hordes of avid listeners who would wear out their bare bones cassette of ZEBRA and eventually go to Kmart and stealthily rip open a vinyl copy of the record to steal the lyric sheet so he could figure out what Randy Jackson was singing. Okay. We may be talking about Scott here. ANYWAY — this week we're thrilled to welcome Mr. Jackson to the podcast to talk about the 50th anniversary of Zebra, recording with Jack Douglas, being a rock band in New Orleans, being a rock band in Long Island, befriending Twisted Sister, touring with Cheap Trick, seeing The Beatles live, being forced to talk about Bon Jovi, and the lyrical prowess of the Moody Blues. And more black beans.

Welcome to the LEGENDS: Podcast by All Day Vinyl. In this episode, host Scott Dudelson sits down with Norman Greenbaum—the singer-songwriter behind one of the most iconic rock anthems of all time, “Spirit in the Sky.” Released in 1969, the song became an instant classic, a staple of FM radio, and a fixture in films and TV for decades. Now, with the recent re-release of the Spirit in the Sky album by Craft Recordings, Greenbaum reflects on the creation, impact, and lasting power of his legendary hit. Norman takes us on a journey through the vibrant music scenes of Los Angeles and San Francisco in the 1960s and '70s. From his early days with jug bands and co-writing the novelty hit “The Eggplant That Ate Chicago” with Dr. West's Medicine Show & Junk Band, to the psychedelic influences that helped shape his sound, Greenbaum shares candid memories of a truly unique musical path. He recalls the surreal experience of performing on American Bandstand, the rapid ascent of “Spirit in the Sky,” and the whirlwind tours that followed alongside bands like The Doors and The Moody Blues. With honesty and humor, he opens up about the recording challenges, career highs and lows, and the re-birth of Spirit in the Sky This episode is more than just a look back—it's a celebration of musical originality, cultural legacy, and the enduring spirit behind a song that continues to inspire generations. Whether you're a classic rock devotee or just discovering Norman Greenbaum's music, this is a must-listen conversation If you enjoyed this episode please like, rate and subscribe and check us out on YouTube and Instagram @alldayvinyl

By the time The Beatles released their twelfth and final studio album, Let It Be, the ban had already broken up. Their official break-up was in April 1970, and this album was released in May.Much of the recording dates back over a year, and a project that Paul McCartney developed in an attempt to save the band. The Beatles went into the studio in January 1969 to begin an album, document the development on film, and showcase the band as they return both to a simpler rock 'n' roll style and to live performance. They started in Twickenham Film Studios, but quickly began fighting. George Harrison left the group, only returning after they agreed to returning to Apple Studios and to bringing keyboardist Billy Preston in to assist in the process.Originally entitled "Get Back," the album was delayed multiple times as the group considered aligning with potential televised performances, and eventually postponing the release in favor of the studio album "Abbey Road." As the demise of the group became more clear, Engineer Glyn Johns and producer Phil Spector were brought in to turn the pieces from the "Get Back" sessions into a complete album.These sessions were also the ones which included the final Beatles live performance, the "Rooftop Concert" recorded from the roof of Apple Studios on the afternoon of January 30, 1969. This concert proceeded for 42 minutes until the police arrived and instructed the group to turn the sound down.Contemporary reviews of the album were more negative than previous Beatles albums, but those critiques have been revised upwards over time.Bruce presents this album marking the end of an era for this week's podcast.Two of UsPaul McCartney wrote most of this song which is credited to the Lennon-McCartney partnership. The original idea was inspired by McCartney's travel adventures with Linda Eastman (to whom he was married in March 1969), but it took on more meaning as a gesture of affection to John Lennon after the group broke up. I Me MineOne of the few non Lennon-McCartney songs on the album, this track was written by George Harrison. It was their last new track recorded before their official break-up in April 1970. The lyrics are a cry against the self-centeredness of mankind. The Beatles recorded it in January 1970, by which time Lennon has privately left the group, so the three remaining members recorded it. I've Got a FeelingThis song is actually a medley of two unfinished songs. Paul McCartney wrote "I've Got a Feeling," and John Lennon wrote "Everybody Had a Hard Year." and the two were put together. This was recorded during the Beatles' rooftop concert in January 1969 with Billy Preston on electric piano.Get BackThe concluding song from the album is unusual. because almost every moment of the song's development was recorded from the first riff to final mixing. The concluding quip from John Lennon regarding hope that "we passed the audition," was taken from the Rooftop Concert and worked in by Phil Spector. It was originally released as a single a year before in April 1969, and credited to "The Beatles with Billy Preston." ENTERTAINMENT TRACK:"Burning Bridges" (Main theme from the action comedy film Kelly's Heroes)This World War II comedy stars Clint Eastwood and Telly Savalas revolves around a gold heist as the war draws to a close. STAFF PICKS:Question by The Moody BluesLynch brings us a song in multiple movements. The frantic phase represents the question of why we must go to war, while the more subdued section represents love and peace. Guitarist Justin Hayward wrote this song as a mashup of two unfinished songs which came together after observing the anxiety young US fans were experiencing regarding the draft and the Vietnam War.Proper Stranger by The Guess WhoRob features a deeper cut from the Canadian band off their "American Woman" album. The lyrics depict the feelings of being alone in a big city where "Nobody knows my face or knows my name. Nobody knows where I'm going or how I came. Lost and found, no one claimed me. Alone with a million others."50,000 Miles Beneath My Brain by by Ten Years AfterWayne takes us on another deep cut. This one is a psychedelic journey with the group that gets its name from their being founded ten years after Elvis's start. We noticed the similarity between this song and the Rolling Stones' "Sympathy for the Devil," with which it shares a similar chord progression.Baby Hold On by The Grass RootsBruce closes the staff picks with a group that was big from 1965-1985. The Grass Roots originated in 1965 as a project between the duo P.F. Sloan and Steve Barri. This song went to number 35 and was included on their compilation album, "More Golden Grass," released in the fall of 1970. INSTRUMENTAL TRACK:Genesis by Tangerine DreamWe close out this week's podcast with an early industrial track from the future jazz fusion giants.

You might think we're scraping the bottom of the barrel by choosing The Present for our annual Moody Blues episode, but that's not true at all. Even though the band themselves hated it, and it's quite polarizing among Moody Blues fans, all of us here at Discord and Rhyme think it's terrific. As with Long Distance Voyager, you need to be prepared for the ultra-slick ‘80s production, but underneath that gloss there are some top-notch Moody Blues songs and super great instrumental details, including Patrick Moraz's keyboards. If you're a The Present skeptic, we hope you'll listen to this episode and end up convinced that it's a truly great album.

This week, we're keeping one eye on Wall Street and the other on a canal in Dublin. Moody's just downgraded the United States' credit rating, a move that quietly confirms what most won't say out loud: America's debt-fuelled growth is unsustainable, and interest payments are now outpacing military spending. Meanwhile, back home, a row of cottages literally collapsed, not abandoned, but owned by the very people lobbying to fix Ireland's housing crisis. In a country where average rents just passed €2,000. In this episode, we tie it all together: the real consequences of debt, the performative hypocrisy at the top, and how property in Ireland has become a parasitic asset, not a social good. From Donald Trump's inflationary tariff plans to the Irish State's inability to enforce basic upkeep, we're watching the scaffolding of credibility, financial and moral, fall away. Join the gang! https://plus.acast.com/s/the-david-mcwilliams-podcast. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
