The Surprising Truth About Rock Star Fortunes: Prepare to have your assumptions about fame shattered. KiddChris reveals that despite their public image, many rock stars, like Mike from Staind, don't make a "ton" of money from record sales. In fact, record companies often take the bulk of the profits, leaving artists "exposed" and even owing money for "20-something years". This segment offers a crucial insight into why supporting bands by attending live shows and purchasing merchandise is vital for their survival."Balls Out Bowling": An Event Like No Other: Sara brings a detailed discussion about an annual bowling event in Pittsburgh where "no clothing is allowed except the bowling shoes". Hear the "nude group's" advice to "not forget a towel", and comparisons to a naked bike ride event in Portland, Oregon, that featured "thousands of people naked riding bikes". Learn about the event's rules, including the 18+ age limit and the strict "no cell phone" policy, ironically juxtaposed with the expectation of people wearing recording glasses. Unconventional Soundscapes: Discover a unique musical experiment where an online artist took samples of Heathrow Airport sounds and created ambient music designed to help people fall asleep. The surprising twist? The airport itself found it "pretty cool" and asked to "pipe it through our airport". Learn where you can find this "Heat Throw airport" music for free if you're looking for a new way to drift off.Take a walk down memory lane with "On This Day In History" segments, revisiting moments like Limp Bizkit's album "Significant Other" hitting number one, Metallica's Lars Ulrich testifying in the Napster copyright battle, and the enduring, perhaps overplayed, "Macarena". Enjoy a hilarious description of a karaoke performer's rendition of "This Is How We Do It" that might make you rethink the song's lyrics.

As Edward's reckless choices endanger the English throne and strain relations with France, Isabella will have to decide if she'll remain a loyal queen – or take matters into her own hands.Be the first to know about Wondery's newest podcasts, curated recommendations, and more!

podUMENTARY: Music @ Work – 25 Years LaterA TTHTop40 Special Presentation“It just didn't click this time.” – Johnny FayIt was 25 years ago today that The Tragically Hip released Music @ Work—their seventh studio album and possibly their most misunderstood.In this special edition podUMENTARY episode, we're cracking open the vault and unspooling the story of Music @ Workwith help from fans, friends, and a few Hip insiders who were there when it all went down.From behind-the-scenes tension to on-stage experimentation, from Napster leaks to leaky vibes, Music @ Work emerged from a boiling point inside the band—and became a branching-off point for many fans. Some left. Others leaned in. And 25 years later, it's a record we're still reckoning with.We also hear from fans across the continent—those who loved Music @ Work instantly, those who took a 15-year break from it, and those who fell in love (literally) while listening to Lake Fever on an early web stream.Some call it a summer driving record. Others call it Experiments at Work. But almost everyone agrees: it's an album that keeps revealing itself, slowly, steadily, and strangely—especially with time.Next Week on TTHTop40We return to the countdown with Song #19 and a helluva guest, it's our friend Jeff from Bowmanville —don't miss it.Quote“Music @ Work probably should have been called Experiments at Work—because that's what it felt like.” – Listener submissionAbout This SpecialpodUMENTARY: Music @ Work – 25 Years Later is a one-off documentary-style episode of The Tragically Hip Top Forty Countdown created by jD and the team at Dewvre Podcasts & Such.

Send us a textEver wonder what happens when theatrical magic collides with punk rock energy? Sasha Mereu embodies this fascinating intersection as the self-styled "punk rock Willy Wonka" - and he's on a mission to transform how musicians earn a living.Sasha takes us on a captivating journey through his remarkable career spanning over 1,000 stages worldwide, including a Broadway run in 2016 with "The Illusionists: Turn of the Century" - which became Broadway's highest-grossing magic show. His performances blend theatrical elements with musical prowess, creating an electric, unpredictable energy that keeps audiences on the edge of their seats. Rather than avoiding eye contact like many musicians, Sasha dives into crowds, creating personal connections and sometimes conjuring balloon animals out of thin air.Beyond his performances, Sasha delivers a compelling analysis of how the music industry fundamentally changed with Napster and subsequent streaming platforms. The traditional model of recording albums, touring, and selling physical copies has collapsed, leaving most musicians struggling to earn living wages. His response? Co-founding Fairvu, a benefit corporation building a digital platform that enables musicians to livestream concerts with virtual ticket sales, store media on-demand, and sell merchandise - all while keeping 90% of their earnings.What makes Fairview unique isn't just its artist-friendly economics but its structure as a benefit corporation balancing profit with community benefits and complete transparency. Rather than seeking large investors, they're taking a grassroots approach by asking musicians to contribute just $5 each to build the platform together.Whether you're a musician feeling the squeeze of streaming economics, a fan wanting to better support artists you love, or simply fascinated by creative entrepreneurs tackling industry-wide challenges - Sasha's insights offer a refreshing perspective on creating sustainable artistic careers in the digital age. Check out fairvu.net to support their mission and help reshape the music industry's future.Want to be a guest on Living the Dream with Curveball?

Damian Kulash of OK Go discusses his evolution from punk music fan, working with Dischord records, and creating boundary-pushing music, vinyl packaging and viral videos Topics Include: New album "And The Adjacent Possible" available for streaming now. Discussion about physical media's role in OK Go's output. OK Go primarily known for videos that "live in the ether." Damian was into physical record packaging during college years. First record was Herbie Hancock's "Rockit," bought at Tower Records. Young Damian damaged the record trying to scratch like DJ. Later played with Herbie Hancock at Obama's 50th birthday party. Musical journey from hip-hop through Prince, Beatles, Led Zeppelin. DC punk scene was influential, with bands playing in cafeterias. Started Level Records at age 15,with funding from Dischord Records. Ian MacKaye lent teenager Damian money to start label. Level Records produced 7-inches and compilation CDs for friends' bands. College made running a record label difficult for Damian. Studied art semiotics at Brown University. Worked as NPR radio engineer and Photoshop retoucher after college. Indifferent to Napster's rise during OK Go's early days. Band finances operated like "roadrunner off the cliff" cartoon. Discussion about gift economy model working for the band. Belief that making things you love matters most, not success. Music sometimes gets overshadowed by video's visual impact. Videos gave OK Go longevity beyond typical radio-hit bands. New album theme explores Stuart Kaufman's "adjacent possible" concept. OK Go doesn't have unified sound; band is "like a mixtape." Treadmill video was originally made for "nerdiest fans" only. Videos aim to create real events that connect with viewers. Physical pressings of OK Go albums are costly in secondary market. New vinyl features elaborate pop-up sphere in custom packaging. Hidden track on second album deliberately blocked copy-protection software. Record label "Paracadute" means parachute in Italian. Ten-year album gap wasn't intentional; life and pandemic happened. Directed "The Beanie Bubble" film with his wife for Apple. Film directing different from making music videos; less adrenaline-driven. Video production typically takes 3-6 months from concept to completion. Some video ideas abandoned when technology made them commonplace.

Now, a top GOP senator is demanding an urgent investigation. Meanwhile, a German news outlet revealed that Tulsi Gabbard, Pete Hegseth, and Mike Waltz's personal emails, phone numbers, and even passwords were easily found online—linked to everything from LinkedIn to their workout apps. Over at the Supreme Court, justices voted 7-2 to uphold Biden-era ghost gun regulations, a major win for law enforcement as crime scenes flooded with untraceable firearms in recent years. In the finance world, Trump's family-backed World Liberty Financial just launched its own stablecoin, USD1, pegged to the U.S. dollar. Fidelity is also jumping into the stablecoin game, currently testing its own version to act as cash in crypto markets. And finally, here's a headline nobody expected.
