In this Summer Coolers edition of NHL Wraparound, Neil Smith and Vic Morren dissect the Winnipeg Jets, who entered 2025 as the surprise Presidents' Trophy winners—only to fall in the second round of the playoffs.After a miraculous comeback in Game 7 vs. St. Louis, the Jets were grounded by the Dallas Stars—and the split personality home/road record (6–1 at home, 0–6 on the road) told the story.Now, with Nikolaj Ehlers gone, Connor Hellebuyck under scrutiny, and Jonathan Toews making a shocking return, is this team still built to contend?

Who worked harder this week—Kenny G or Doja Cat's boob tape? The team at Dori & Dias Private Dicks are on the case—but first, they have to solve the mystery of the 80s concert that could be Rickrolling us.Are Kylie, Rick Astley, Billy Ocean, and—most importantly—Sonia heading to Durban? We get out of our dreams to try and find out.Corey Feldman in dancing with the stars and it's made us hate Zac Efron's brother.Is there such a thing as too much moustache? Doesn't matter—we find the perfect amount with a review of Matt Houston so deep, we came out smelling like a chaps-wearing Texas oilman.But be warned: the Smirks per Minute are dangerously high.Meanwhile, Paulo has a business opportunity for Dori as Bigmouth Morrissey strikes again.Jump To:Kenny G Trends After Doja Cat VMA Performance (00:00:18): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rXDCs3D5iDURumored 'Icons of the 80s' Durban Concert (00:04:58) : https://www.citizen.co.za/highway-mail/news-headlines/2025/09/04/kylie-rick-billy-in-durban-or-is-this-80s-dream-too-good-to-be-true/Corey Feldman on Dancing with the Stars (00:13:00) : https://www.foxnews.com/entertainment/corey-feldman-takes-dancing-stars-stage-after-battles-his-dark-hollywood-pastMatt Houston TV Show Review (00:17:56) : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RLvl4TUTVHgMorrissey Selling The Smiths' Rights (00:38:00): https://www.theguardian.com/music/2025/sep/04/the-musty-whiff-of-a-yard-sale-why-is-morrissey-attempting-to-sell-his-share-of-the-smiths-cataloguehttps://www.morrissey-solo.com/threads/a-soul-for-sale-september-3-2025.154026/#That 80s Show, #podcast, #1980s pop culture, #Kenny G, #Doja Cat, #Video Music Awards, #Icons of the 80s concert, #Durban, #Kylie Minogue, #Billy Ocean, #Rick Astley, #nostalgia, #social media trends, #performance, #80s-style, #fashion, #music industry, #concert skepticism, #Sharks Stadium, #VIP tickets, #music artists, #celebrity gossip, #Facebook, #social media, #ChatGPT, #The Smiths, #Morrissey, #Johnny Marr, #music rights, #band dynamics, #80s television, #Matt Houston, #Aaron Spelling, #mustaches, #TV shows, #classic episodes, #80s humor, #pop culture references, #music discussions, #live performances, #concert announcements, #entertainment news.

Your weekly guide to the music biz and how it all works. In this week's The Price of Music: an urgent-ish delve into the news that Morrissey has announced he wants to sell his ownership of The Smiths' songs… including a suggestion from Steve and Stu about how Johnny Marr might buy the songs off Morrissey via a gmail address that Morrissey put online.And then Steve and Stu take a deep dive into a fantastic question from listener Simon who asked: artists often say that they are not making enough money from music streaming but are artists REALLY worse off today in the music streaming age?To answer this, Steve and Stu wander down some... interesting pathways. They:talk to their Top Secret Sources in the artist and label world, and found out the answer… (which may surprise you);hypothesise about both Mazzy Star AND Bonnie Tyler's record contracts;chat to Spotify, which reveals to our dynamic duo about how much they paid Mazzy Star and Bonnie Tyler(!);wonder how being a ‘radio artist' pays compared to a ‘streaming artist';dig into artist deals: because the money paid from streaming doesn't go to the artist first;ask why the artists who ARE doing well from streaming platforms aren't talking about it?…and tangentially… is TPOM better to listen to on a treadmill than Hi-NRG house music? A brief discussion.And in the special post-show lock-in section just for our Patreon Superfans, Steve and Stuart prop themselves at the bar to chat about:The time Steve worked in a record shop for a day; and he immediately faced a quandary: which letter should he file PJ Harvey under?Steve gently chides Stu over his love of a Songs Of The Summer Stats List from TikTok, which includes a load of old nostalgia songsRadiohead are back – and how do you sell tickets to shows that will be massively-oversubscribed and make sure those tickets get to real fans?After Covid's impact, money spent on live music is up - and more popular than ever.  But what were Steve and Stu's first gigs after Covid?A call for your suggestions of hard-to-file records!As ever, we welcome your feedback, emails and – in particular – any questions you might have about how the music biz works!Email us: ⁠thepriceofmusicpodcast@gmail.com⁠See you next week!Steve and Stuart======Support The Price of Music on Patreon:⁠https://www.patreon.com/ThePriceofMusic⁠Follow Steve on X - @steve_lamacqFollow Stuart on X - @stuartdredgeFollow The Price of Music on X - @PriceofMusicpodFor sponsorship, email - ⁠joe@musically.com

#skimspartnerJOIN THE WEIRDEST PATREON EVER!: https://www.patreon.com/c/TrashTuesdayPodcast Ivy Wolk (Anora) crashes the pod this week! She teaches us her ultimate life mantra and her response to her five year situation asking for a threesome: “be yourself, have fun, and learn along the way” We get into: not being allowed into the Anora Cannes premiere (justice for Ivy), how Taylor Swift is microdosing high school and Taylor giving us NOTHING during the Eras Tour. Jules lays out her master plan to bag Harry Styles, Ivy confesses her third-grade crush, and we dive deep into the true Morrissey experience. Also on the docket: Courtney Love vs. Patti Lupone (!!), and Ivy explaining why Chappell Roan how and why she’s probably a reactive lesbian. We pressed record and then let Ivy do her thing.

Why do bands all end up hating one another? Why don't young men write books any longer? Is the American sitcom doomed? Morrissey is attempting to sell all of his 'business interests' tied to The Smiths, because he is "tired of the disagreeable and vexatious characters" in the band. Richard and Marina dive into the world of legal disputes between band members. 'The Paper' is the new sitcom spin-off from 'The Office US', Marina has watched it and has thoughts on its representation of local newspapers.

Matt Walker has always wanted to play the drums. It was his first instrument and he took to it immediately. He's now made a wonderful career of it - playing in an amazing list of incredibly bands. Morrissey, Smashing Pumpkins, Filter, Garbage and more. His band, Cupcakes, put out a major label record, but broke up too soon. Nowadays, Matt puts out his own work as of1000faces. We talked about Matt's career, as well as his thoughts on Chicago.https://of1000faces.bandcamp.com/Time stamps:3:07: Was it always your intent to play drums, or did you learn something else and segway into drums?4:21: Who were some of your earliest drumming influences?6:51: Did you learn anything from your dad about listening to music critically?10:52: At what point do you start to expand your music playing from the blues scene into more rock type acts?15:16: What was that band that clicked for you that you played in?17: How do you get tapped to audition for Filter/what is an audition like?21:30: You enter The Smashing Pumpkins at a super tumultuous time, what is that tumult like?28:24: How quickly did you have to learn The Pumpkins songs before going on tour with them?35:15: What led to you leaving The Pumpkins?39:28: Tell us more about Cupcakes43: Did you take more ownership because this was your band?44:19: How do you get hooked into the Morrissey orbit?49:13: Is it stressful to be in a band with Morrissey?51: What is it like going in the studio with Morrissey?53: Thick or thin crust pizza fan?55:05: Favorite venue to see a show and favorite venue to play a show?56: What makes Chicago music scene unique?58: How did the of1000faces project come to be?59:48: What is your go to cheap drink?61:20: Anything you'd like to plug on the way on out of here?

The internet's still broken, folks, and apparently, AI's here to make it more awkward. Intel caught a break from Uncle Sam's CHIPS Act, cool for them, not so much for those 'flashing warning signs' in the job market. Meta's been letting celebrity chatbots run wild (and creepy), Midjourney's getting sued by Warner Bros. for stealing IP (who'da thought?), and OpenAI thinks an AI hiring platform is a good idea. Plus, an AI chatbot automated a cybercrime spree, totally unexpected. If you're calling ChatGPT a 'clanker,' you're not wrong, but seriously? Your butt probably needs a break from the toilet.Elon Musk and his joyride of companies continue to make us wonder if we're living in a dystopian satire. Tesla got slapped with a $243 million verdict after rejecting a $60 million settlement (because that's how you make deals, right?). 'Key data' they said they didn't have? A hacker found it. His vague 'master plan' sounds like a last-minute college essay, and software deploys airbags before you crash. His quest for a trillion-dollar pay package is on, and Neuralink can't even trademark 'telepathy.' They're doing brain surgeries in Toronto now. What could go wrong?On the lighter side, Finland built a giant sand battery, which is cool, and iOS 26 finally gave iPads a native Instagram app after, like, forever. We've got movie reviews, TV binges (Wednesday is really good), and a deep dive into KPop Demon Hunters (seriously, listen to the songs). FIFA's jacking up World Cup ticket prices with dynamic pricing (of course they are), and Morrissey's selling his stake in The Smiths (probably to escape his own 'malicious associations'). If you're still reading Usenet threads from '94, you're either a sadist or Dave.Sponsors:CleanMyMac - clnmy.com/Grumpyoldgeeks - Use code OLDGEEKS for 20% off.Private Internet Access - Go to GOG.Show/vpn and sign up today.

Addio al re della moda italiana Giorgio Armani. Morrissey vuole vendere il marchio The Smiths. I turchi a Viterbo, lo yatch turco affondato. Diego per l'ultima giornata da Venezia. Il grande ritorno di Aldo Rock.

Samen met Kirsten en Otto-Jan bespreken we de terugkeer van Radiohead. Hun optredens, hun virale hit en hun vage statements over de Palestijnse zaak. Otto-Jan tovert probleemloos de volledige tekst van 'It's The End of The World' van REM uit zijn mouw en hoe zit dat nu met rechten die Morrissey bezit op het merk 'The Smiths'?

After Andrew's failure to help Luke with his stand-up routine, Luke turns to A.I. for some jokes. Plus, Morrissey is ready to sell his stake in the songs he wrote for The Smiths, and you know he's serious because he set-up a gmail account and posted it on Instagram.

This Drum Panel episode picks up where we left off with Brendan Buckley (Shakira, Morrissey, Perry Farrell) and Gunnar Olsen (Puscifer, Mother Feather). If you missed Part 1, you'll still follow along just fine—but it's worth a listen. We dive right in with drummer nightmares before moving into bigger conversations about finding your own sound, overcoming roadblocks, and balancing identity as both artist and “brand.” Inside this episode: Drummer nightmares on stage – including Brendan's Shakira story that started as a trio Bad advice worth ignoring – why “you need to play everything” isn't always the path Finding your own voice – doubling down on what makes you unique instead of being a jack of all trades Hi-hat obsession – tone, touch, and why small changes shift the whole vibe Roadblocks and breakthroughs – Gunnar's kick pedal “yips” and Brendan's double bass practice insights Kit setups and identity – how your drum layout shapes your playing more than you think Brand vs. authenticity – do drummers really need to market themselves, or is being great enough? ——— Get Your Copy of the Drummers on Drumming Book Today!

In this episode of the EY CFO Outlook podcast, Rob Morrissey, CFO of AstraZeneca Ireland Commercial operations joins host Dearbhail McDonald to talk about his unconventional career journey, AstraZeneca's growth plans, the role of AI in finance, and why empathy and compassion matter so much to him as a leader. Rob Morrissey's path into finance was something of an accident. Having spent childhood summers helping on a farm in Wexford, and not being a natural ‘numbers person', Rob was initially attracted to studying agricultural science at third level. However, without a farm to go to, he chose business studies. When the college Registrar accidentally placed Rob into the accounting module, he reluctantly decided to stick with it, and the rest is history. After qualifying as a chartered accountant, Rob entered the jobs market during the economic recession of the late 2000s and was unable to find work for a significant period of time, an experience that he found both humbling and made him more resilient. However, when he successfully applied for a maternity cover contract in AstraZeneca, Rob's search was over and his journey to CFO began. Today, Rob leads financial strategy, governance, and long-term planning for the AstraZeneca Ireland Commercial operations which is a subsidiary of one of the world's top science-led biopharma companies, with over 95,000 employees across 80 countries, selling products into 125 markets. They also discuss:How the CFO role has evolved into more of a strategic business partner. He talks about safeguarding the company's assets but also driving the company's performance and innovation.AI and Digital Transformation - embracing AI tools while upskilling to stay ahead in a changing finance landscape.Sustainability and Community Impact - AstraZeneca's switch to electric vehicles and community initiatives including clean coasts, tree planting, and community gardens.Work-Life Balance and Leadership Philosophy - how becoming a parent helped Rob find better balance and explains why empathy and compassion matter in leadership.

Jesse Daniel Edwards is a songwriter from California who now makes his home in Nashville. Edwards has lived an incredible life. He has gone from growing up without television or internet, to leaving home at 16, to tour managing for the likes of Jason Isbell, Lucinda Williams, and Morrissey(!) and making unique, fascinating records. This year he has released not one, not two, but three wonderful collections of songs- two EPs and a full length. I highly recommend all three. This conversation went in so many different directions, y'all. I am grateful for Jesse as a thought partner and for the art he shares with the world. Everyone, it is my great honor to present my conversation with Jesse Daniel Edwards.

Paul Weller has just covered it on his new album. Morrissey played it to Noel Gallagher who took the idea and ran with it. What explains the enduring appeal of a record that stalled at number 22 all those years ago? Actor/musician Brian Protheroe doesn't know but he's certainly grateful that it's being reissued once again. His story takes us back to:…the days when young musicians hitch-hiked to London…the way the sun shone on the day “Sgt Pepper” came out…when Soho was a village and an out of work actor could afford to live in Covent Garden…when being dumped by a girl could inspire that actor to diarise his daily routine…when the jazzman who played the solo on the record couldn't remember it for “TOTP”…how it feels to take your grandson to Abbey Road to watch your album being remastered.Pre-order the Chrysalis Red reissue of the first Brian Protheroe album: https://brianprotheroe.lnk.to/PNBFind out more about how to help us to keep the conversation going: https://www.patreon.com/wordinyourear Hosted on Acast.

This Drum Panel brings together Brendan Buckley—drummer for Shakira, Perry Farrell, Morrissey, and more—and one of my closest friends, Gunnar Olsen of Puscifer, Mother Feather, Big Data, and ME to chat about... ...the difference between what works in the practice room and what works in an arena, charting versus memorizing, and how to respect the composition before making it your own. Brendan breaks down the “Shakira machine” and why clarity and projection beat busy parts when you're playing to the back row. We also cover deep-dive listening versus casting a wide net, Bowie's Berlin era, and the time Brendan's electrician turned out to be one of my favorite drummers—and his too. It's equal parts practical advice, music history, and great road stories from working drummers. Inside this episode Arena truth: kick, snare, crashes beat ghost-note soup The DW stainless kit that keeps coming back on tour Shakira's camp, subs, and how Brendan plans for “what if” Learning 30 songs fast: charts, anchors, and staying calm Deep-dive listening vs playlists, plus Bowie and Prince talk The Alan Myers story and why “mic-friendly” drums matter ——— Get Your Copy of the Drummers on Drumming Book Today!

High-net-worth retirees are hungry for clear, actionable retirement education - but often don't know where to find it. This episode explores how hosting local educational seminars can create a consistent pipeline of engaged prospects and drive meaningful business growth for financial advisors. Ryan Morrissey is the founder of Morrissey Wealth Management, an RIA in North Haven, Connecticut, overseeing $140 million in AUM for 150 households. Listen in as Ryan shares how he organizes his retirement planning seminars through local adult education programs to attract his target audience, how he's found that charging a small nominal fee for the classes boosts participant engagement, and how offering a free consultation as a “bonus class” consistently converts attendees into new clients. We also discuss his transition from wirehouse to RIA ownership, how he navigates compliance as a growing firm, and why he's focused on keeping his service model simple and impactful as he continues to scale.

Sex, drugs, and spectacularly stupid decisions! This special greatest hits episode of History's Greatest Idiots rocks through the most legendary bad choices in music history, featuring four icons who proved that talent and terrible judgment make the perfect rock and roll cocktail.First up: Rick James, the funk superstar who turned "Super Freak" into a lifestyle philosophy, complete with kidnapping charges, cocaine binges, and the kind of career self-sabotage that makes train wrecks look organized. Then we dive into Keith Moon, The Who's drummer, whose explosive personality matched his playing style, literally blowing up hotel toilets, driving cars into swimming pools, and somehow making other rock stars say "that guy's too wild for us."We'll explore Malcolm McLaren, the punk impresario who created the Sex Pistols purely to destroy the music industry, then watched his masterpiece implode when Johnny Rotten and Sid Vicious actually meant all that anarchist stuff. Finally, Morrissey rounds out our line-up: the melancholy maestro whose genius for alienating fans, cities, and entire countries turned him from an indie darling into a professional controversy generator.From drug-fuelled hotel destruction to punk rock manipulation schemes, these music legends prove that sometimes the biggest disasters happen when brilliant artists meet absolutely zero impulse control. Join Lev and Derek as they count down the greatest hits of rock and roll's most gloriously idiotic moments.Perfect for music fans, rock history buffs, and anyone who's ever wondered how someone can be simultaneously a genius and completely insane.⁠⁠https://www.patreon.com/HistorysGreatestIdiots⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.instagram.com/historysgreatestidiots⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Artist: Sarah Chey⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.fiverr.com/sarahchey⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Animation: Daniel Wilson⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.instagram.com/wilson_the_wilson/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Music: Andrew Wilson⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.instagram.com/andrews_electric_sheep⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Want to create live streams like this?

On July 4, President Trump signed a sweeping new law that makes major changes to the social safety net—with serious consequences for families and children. Child and family policy expert Professor Taryn Morrissey breaks down the Republican-backed legislation, which slashes Medicaid, SNAP, and other key supports that millions of families rely on. She examines how the law shifts resources away from low-income and younger Americans—especially children—and toward wealthier, older households. Morrissey discusses how these changes could make inequality worse and what it would actually mean to put kids at the center of national policy. For more on this topic: Read Morrissey's recent opinion article published in The Hill: Trump's Medicaid and SNAP red tape will devastate millions of Americans  Read her op-ed published in The Progressive: GOP Tax Bill Will Hurt Children and Families Check out the book she co-authored, Cradle to Kindergarten: A New Plan to Combat Inequality   DrKfdZ5s5lsT6o5wu9hU

Bret McKenzie now mainly works on movie soundtracks, the Simpsons, Minecraft and the Muppets among them, which brings the pure delight of hearing his songs sung by Lady Gaga, Benedict Cumberbatch, Miss Piggy and Tony Bennett. He talks here about his early life in Wellington (ballet teacher Mum, racehorse trainer Dad), narrative comedy, songwriting heroes and his new album Freak Out City, and unravels New Zealand's double-edged sense of humour. Along with … … how Randy Newman pitches songs for soundtracks … “the test of a good song works is if it works with just one instrument” … lyrics he loved growing up like 16 Tons by Tennessee Ernie Ford – ‘Some people say a man is made out of mud/ A poor man's made out of muscle and blood' … Morrissey's wounded reaction to his sausage-firing Quilloughby on the Simpsons ‘Panic On The Streets Of Springfield' ... solving the “fun puzzles” of a song brief and writing for “donkeys who have a dream” … the ingenious humour of John Prine, Harry Nilsson and Leonard Cohen … the moment in his live shows where he asks the audience for a story and creates a song around it – “one woman suggested ‘falling out of love' with her husband standing right beside her” ... playing the local girls schools aged 15 as the drummer in a James Brown funk band … reworking rejected songs – “which was hard with one from Paddington with its multiple rhymes for marmalade and Peru” … Flight Of The Conchords lampooning the acts they loved (Bowie, Pet Shop Boys) and playing the O2 – “pretending to be a stadium band and the audience pretending to be a stadium audience” … live on-stage application of the John Lennon “pomegranate” lyric-solving technique … “Play like a used car salesman! I need a Steely Dan solo here!” Recording with LA session legends like Leland Sklar.

From Britpop to Beanie Babies, 1995 was da bomb! So much so, in fact, that we thought it would be pretty phat if we revisited the albums of the year in a Volume 2 episode. As if! This week's Third Lad, singer/songwriter/guitarist Josh Caterer had a pretty memorable 1995 as well. His Chicago pop-punk band Smoking Popes signed a major label deal with Capitol Records, who re-released their second indie album, Born To Quit. The album featured the alternative smash "Need You Around," which received radio and MTV airplay, as well as a prominent placement in the hit film Clueless. Fast forward 30 years and things are once again heating up for Smoking Popes. They've just released a triumphant new album, Lovely Stuff, and are celebrating three decades of Born To Quit by playing the record live in its entirety this spring. This summer, they will embark on a tour with Bayside. https://smokingpopesmusic.com Josh joined us from a random rest stop somewhere in Florida to chat about '95 albums, the Popes' past, present, and future, hangin' out in Billie Joe Armstrong's basement, getting Morrissey's seal of approval, the pros and cons of sudden fame, faith, Wisconsin, and much more.
