Carter Journalism Institute and an award-winning narrative audio creator whose work sits at the intersection of journalism, public history, and organizing.

Across these projects, he blends archival research, field reporting, and character-driven storytelling to examine race and power, the political economy of media, and the histories shaping public safety today.Beyond the studio, he builds impact campaigns that connect journalism to action — partnering with community organizations, labor groups, and educators to develop live events, teach-ins, and curriculum that move audiences from listening to engagement.

Topographic Topics – June 2026 Rarely does a single episode pack in Rush's triumphant return, the latest release from Prog cornerstone Yes, a sprawling Devin Townsend epic, and a children's book about stage fright, but here we are. Joe and Paul dive deep into Rush's recent Los Angeles concerts featuring new drummer Annika Niles, whose Neil Peart-honoring performances have sent social media into a frenzy. The early doubters, it turns out, had nothing to worry about. Geddy Lee and Alex Lifeson made exactly the right call, and the band's preparation of approximately 38 different songs across shows reflects genuine care for their fans' emotional journey. (Front-row Toronto seats hitting $31,000 on the secondary market is genuinely staggering, though.) Thoughtfully, the guys also cover Yes's newly released album Aurora, praising Steve Howe's acoustic contributions while noting the overpolished orchestration feels a little too pristine. What does it mean when a band's music becomes so effortless it loses its grit? Paul also walks through Devin Townsend's decade-long "The Moth" project, recommending tracks like "Covered by Causes" as entry points into its massive scope. The episode closes with warm celebration of Tom Corkran's children's book launching July 4th at spooksters.rocks. Tune in for a conversation that covers progressive rock from every angle imaginable.

On the Get Reelisms Podcast, filmmakers Madam Chase Rani and Christine Chen interview Austin director Jon Vallet about his new film American Dollhouse, which just premiered at South by Southwest and launched its festival run with an Austin “film family” crew. Vallet says the movie uses a character-driven, proto-slasher approach inspired by films like Psycho and Black Christmas, using modern anxieties about public spaces feeling unsafe and the dissonance of daily life in America as thematic fuel. He shares the logline: a woman inherits her childhood home, hoping to escape debt, but the house is falling apart and a doppelgänger-like neighbor becomes obsessively dangerous, escalating into a Christmas-set slasher. Vallet discusses prioritizing actors' performances, early sound and scoring collaboration, shooting on Sony Venice in 4:3 with natural light and night-for-day, a 15-day December 2024 shoot, a difficult third-act set build, and adapting scripts and schedules to budget and resources.   Hosts: Adam Rani (@adamthechase)  & Christine Chen (@cchenmtf)  About Christine W Chen: Christine W.

After 5 years of eldercare and other demands, Lynn is saying yes to herself again by setting boundaries, scheduling creative projects, and pursuing her own work.They explore:How comedy works as a delivery system for challenging conversations and cultural shiftWhy the specificity of storytelling creates unexpected connection across differenceWhat it means to set boundaries and reclaim your creative life after burnoutLynn talks about the social contract of comedy and when you attend a show, you're required to listen to someone, even if they don't look like you or share your background. That simple act normalizes different perspectives and creates the possibility for cultural change. She's built Gold Comedy to help women and underrepresented voices succeed in comedy and entertainment, because the industry hasn't evolved enough since the 90s. Her insight is clear: it's not that women need to speak up more.

Why did one of progressive metal's most legendary mad scientists walk away from traditional collaboration to protect his own creative sanity? On this week's episode of The Loaded Radio Podcast, host Scott Penfold sits down with the incomparable Devin Townsend following the highly anticipated release of his massive, 24-track rock opera project, The Moth. In an incredibly open and elaborate conversation, Devin delves into the intense physical pain and personal life transformations that completely derailed and reshaped the direction of this decade-in-the-making symphonic masterpiece. Devin also takes a raw look back at his '90s catalog, reflecting on how he feels today about fronting Strapping Young Lad and stepping onto the global stage alongside Steve Vai for the infamous Sex & Religion album. While he reveals that his current relationship with Vai is excellent, Devin drops a bombshell truth about his creative process, admitting that he actually "does his friends favors by not working with them" because of how difficult he can be in the studio unless he maintains total control. Voices From The Underground Segment: In the second half of the show, we shift our focus to the grassroots independent scene. Scott catches up with Niko and Thursday from the rising Spring Hill, Florida-based original metal band Silver Bullet Smile . We discuss their breakout success on the unsigned charts, their studio workflow crafting thunderous tracks like "Man In The Moon", and the absolute grit required to break through the modern underground metal circuit. In This Episode: Devin Townsend Interview: Shifting The Moth through personal turmoil, the reality of studio control, and the legacy of Strapping Young Lad and Steve Vai.
