Podcast appearances and mentions of Nathan Smith

In this episode of the show, Binksy, Baldy, Jamie and Stu look back at the First Test between England and the visiting Black Caps at Lord's.. We start the show by throwing it to the victors as England take a 1-0 lead in this Test series. Jamie is cautious with his optimism, while Binksy takes us through the Lord's experience and we discuss how important victory in any form was to kickstart this next phase of the Stokes/McCullum partnership. As the conversation continues, it inevitably turns to the Lord's pitch, which prompted an apology from the MCC after the surface grabbed most of the headlines. Was this game even watchable from a neutral perspective? And can we really take any lessons from what happened during the course of the game? In a much more enjoyable and positive segment of the show, we return to the cricket on display to discuss the bowling groups from both sides. There were bags for the returning Ollie Robinson and Kyle Jamieson, plus two more for Nathan Smith and Gus Atkinson. Throw in the performances of Will O'Rourke, Josh Tongue and to a lesser extent Matt Henry and Ben Stokes and it's easy to see why the batters had such a tough time navigating the conditions. For the batters, a fifty on debut for Emilio Gay was about the only highlight, so there's a temptation to put the game in the shredder and move on, but did either team get the tactics right? Was there a hint that the Bazball approach may well be changing after all? To round out the show, we briefly discuss what's next for both sides. Will Matt Henry be fit for the second Test? Will Jofra Archer return to England's squad? And is Kane Williamson retiring? We'll be back again with more news and views next week, most likely to look ahead to the second Test and look back at what happened elsewhere around the world.

Neil Manthorp is joined by the former England fast bowler Steve Harmison to discuss the week's biggest stories. They are also joined on the show by the New Zealand all-rounder Nathan Smith, and the England batter Heather Knight. How big a blow will it be for England if Jacob Bethell misses the first Test at Lord's next week? Who comes in to replace him at No.3 if he is ruled out with injury? Was the decision for Jofra Archer to miss the first Test now justified after Rajasthan Royals made it to the IPL play-offs? Could England's Test stars miss a Test series to play in the 2028 LA Olympics instead? How are New Zealand feeling ahead of their Tests against Ireland and England? Is this the strongest New Zealand bowling attack in their history? How will England's World Cup chances be impacted if Nat Sciver-Brunt is ruled out with injury?

In this episode of the show, Binksy and Stu celebrate the Top Order's 500th episode before discussing the week that was in IPL 2026 and evaluate the Black Caps' Test squad for the upcoming tour to Ireland and England, plus a bit of England Cricket chat as well. We start the show by raising the bat to 500 episode for The Top Order Podcast. It's been a fun journey filled with plenty of highlights, so the boys share a few before moving on to the cricket once again. As the conversation turns to IPL 2026, we discuss a week which saw the majority of the higher-ranked sides stumble, while the Gujarat Titans, Kolkata Knight Riders and Chennai Super Kings took advantage and moved up the ladder. For GT, Shubman Gill and Sai Sudharsan are easy to praise, but it's Rashid Khan who we put in the spotlight for his impressive contributions and craft. Binksy then asks whether Stu believes in the Sunrisers yet, whereas Stu's trying to figure out why the Punjab Kings are dropping so many catches - and also basking in the glory of Finn Allen's hundred for KKR. In the second half of the show, the guys discuss the newly announced 19-player Black Caps Test squad to tour the UK and Ireland. What did they get right in the draft last week? And are there any surprises? There's praise for the seam bowling attack despite the absence of Jacob Duffy, with Matt Henry, Will O'Rourke, Kyle Jamieson, Nathan Smith and co. all in line to feature. On the England side of things, a new selector has (sort of) been announced, and Binksy outlines potential changes from The Ashes that could open the door for a return for Ollie Robinson and a fresh face in the batting line up. We'll be back in your feed again soon with more cricket news, including the charge to the IPL finals and the Black Caps' tour to England.

This week, Thom Francis welcomes poets Kathleen Anne Smith and Nathan Smith to the mic. They shared their work at the 2024 Word Fest Open Mic at the Sand Lake Center for the Arts on April 27, 2024. +++++ After years away, Word Fest returned. What began in 2001 as a one-day open mic at Thatcher Park grew into a week-long celebration of poetry and spoken word across the region. On April 27, 2024, the open mic came back to life after a four-year hiatus at the Sand Lake Center for the Arts with an afternoon of featured readers and community voices. Today, we're highlighting two of those poets: Kathleen Anne Smith and Nathan Smith. Kathleen Anne Smith, author of Let the Stones Grow Soft, read poems including “How Do We Home Alone?” Nathan Smith read “Chapters” from his book Cotton Candy Sun and “The Gay Boys Survival Guide: 20 Rules to Reach 25.”

The Black Caps have struggled in their second of three ODIs against Bangladesh losing by 6 wickets last night, which sets up a decider on Thursday night. After a strong performance in the first match, they just couldn't get going with the bat - setting a subpar total of 198. Bangladesh chased the total down with relative ease in the 36th over only losing four wickets. Black Cap Nathan Smith joined D'Arcy to discuss.

This week on Group Chat, the guys kick things off fresh off Daylight Savings — and nobody's mad about it. The LA Marathon took over the city, and with it came one of the most unbelievable finishes in recent sports memory: Nathan Smith, a 36-year-old middle school teacher, came from behind in the final seconds to steal the win in a photo finish for the ages. Nike, call this man. The crew also digs into the controversy around LA handing out medals at mile 18, the logistics of playing Frogger through 10,000 runners on Sunset, and why Boston will always have more credibility. From there: Is Whole Foods actually one of the cheapest grocery stores in America? The guys make the case — and call out the "whole paycheck" narrative as outdated marketing. Plus, the best days of the week to shop on Amazon, Walmart, and Revolve thanks to dynamic pricing, and what surge pricing has taught us about how we spend. The five wealthiest counties in the US are all in the DC area. What does that tell us about who's really winning? The crew breaks it down. And finally: matcha is everywhere, vegetarianism might be the new woke, and Drama's Fantasy Factory is going viral on TikTok all over again.

This week on Headline Highlights: A heartbreaking development in the disappearance of 27-year-old Nathan Smith, son of Lil John, as a body has been found that authorities believe may be his.

Authorities recovered Nathan’s body from a Georgia pond after he was reported missing, with police stating that no foul play is suspected. The show also turned its attention to Cardi B, who made headlines for reportedly spending more than $1.2 million to support boyfriend Stefon Diggs at the Super Bowl—covering private suites, premium seating, multiple private jets, and lavish after‑party plans as part of a once‑in‑a‑lifetime celebration. The crew continued with uplifting entertainment news as Halle Berry officially announced her engagement to longtime partner Van Hunt, ending months of speculation. Berry confirmed on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon that she “did not say no” and proudly displayed her multi‑karat diamond ring while sharing that the couple simply hasn’t chosen a wedding date yet. The show closed with sharp political conversation after reports that Governor Wes Moore, the nation’s only Black governor, was uninvited from this year’s White House National Governors Association dinner—an unprecedented departure from bipartisan tradition that Moore described as “blatant disrespect” and a painful exclusion.

What happens when the first generation won't let go?In this episode, we sit down with Nathan Smith to unpack one of the most common—and painful—challenges in the Buy Here Pay Here industry: dealership succession planning that goes sideways. Nathan shares his story of working for his father, being ready to take over, and watching it all fall apart when his dad wanted out but refused to structure a deal that actually worked.Then we flip the script. Nathan found a better path forward by partnering with a seasoned dealer who was ready to exit the right way. We break down how that transition happened, what the first 90 days looked like, the unexpected challenges (like inheriting a portfolio with short warranty terms), and why taking over an existing store with repeat customers changed everything. We cover:Why so many boomer-generation dealers can't exit successfullyThe real cost of trying to take 100% off the tableHow Nathan structured the buyout with a seasoned dealerManaging inherited customer relationships and portfolio riskThe power of starting with 47% repeat/referral businessWhy multiple rooftops aren't always the answerCollecting 98% of an inherited portfolio (and why that matters)If you're thinking about succession—whether you're the one trying to exit or the one trying to take over—this episode is required listening.Support the businesses that support the podcastBuckeye Risk ServicesReinsurance, tax planning, and long-term wealth strategies built specifically for independent dealers.https://www.buckeyerisk.comBlytzPayBuy Here Pay Here payment processing with fast funding, text-to-pay, and real dealer-focused support.https://www.blytzpay.comIturan GPSGPS and payment technology for BHPH and retail dealerships focused on asset protection, recovery tools, and customer management.https://www.ituranusa.comFollow & ConnectWebsite: https://www.theindependentdealer.comEmail: info@ependentdealer.comFacebook Group: @independentautogroupLuke Godwin: @lukegodwinJeff Watson: /sendtojeffwLike, subscribe, and share this episode with another dealer who needs a fresh perspective.

How can we—jazz fans, musicians, writers, and historians—understand the legacy and impact of a musician like Dave Brubeck? It is undeniable that Brubeck leveraged his fame as a jazz musician and status as a composer for social justice causes, and in doing so, held to a belief system that, during the civil rights movement, modeled a progressive approach to race and race relations. It is also true that it took Brubeck, like others, some time to understand the full spectrum of racial power dynamics at play in post-WWII, early Cold War, and civil rights-era America. Dave Brubeck and the Performance of Whiteness (Oxford UP, 2023) uses Brubeck's performances of whiteness across his professional, private, and political lives as a starting point to understand the ways in which whiteness, privilege, and white supremacy more fully manifested in mid-century America. How is whiteness performed and re-performed? How do particular traits become inscribed with whiteness, and further, how do those traits, now racialized in a listener's mind, filter the sounds a listener hears? To what extent was Brubeck's whiteness made by others? How did audiences and critics use Brubeck to craft their own identities centered in whiteness? Drawing on archival records, recordings, and previously conducted interviews, Dave Brubeck and the Performance of Whiteness listens closely for the complex and shifting frames of mid-century whiteness, and how they shaped the experiences of Brubeck's critics, audiences, and Brubeck himself. Throughout, author Kelsey Klotz asks what happens when a musician tries to intervene, using his privilege as a tool with which to disrupt structures of white supremacy, even as whiteness continues to retain its hold on its beneficiaries.

In this episode of the show, Baldy, Stu and Raj look back at the first Test between New Zealand and the West Indies, and give a brief shout out to Virat Kohli and a live reaction to the goings on in the second Ashes Test. With England and Australia still on the field at our regular Sunday recording time (check back in a day or two for our wrap of that match), we dedicated the majority of this episode to unpacking the West Indies' impressive rearguard action against the Black Caps at Hagley Oval. We start with a round-up of emotions after what proved to be a draining final couple of days in the first Test of the New Zealand summer. The Black Caps looked set for victory with the West Indies at 72-4 chasing 500+, but injuries to Matt Henry, Nathan Smith & Tom Blundell and an outstanding fighting effort from Shai Hope, Justin Greaves & Kemar Roach took the game into the final overs and secured a draw for the visitors. As we bounce around a number of talking points, there's also praise for Jacob Duffy, Tom Latham & Rachin Ravindra, we discuss the pitch and umpiring decisions, and debate whether the Black Caps still had enough chances to win or whether the West Indies should have put the accelerator down in the final session in an attempt to chase down the target. In amongst all of that, we speculate on the New Zealand lineup for the second Test and the prospect of potential Test debuts for Mitch Hay and Michael Rae or an SOS call-up to Kyle Jamieson. To round out the show, we there's a shout-out to Virat Kohli for his stacks of runs in the ODI series against South Africa, plus Baldy's live reaction to the news that Australia were on the verge of victory against England under lights in Brisbane. We'll be back in your feed in a day or two to review that second Ashes Test, then again next week with more from here in New Zealand and around the world.

Charles J. Stivale (Distinguished Professor Emeritus, Wayne State University) and Dan Smith (Professor of Philosophy, Purdue University) join me to discuss: Deleuze, Gilles. 2025. On Painting. Edited by David Lapoujade, translated by Charles J. Stivale. Minneapolis: University of Minnesota Press. Although Charles is the translator of this New Book, he has been working with Dan for years on The Deleuze Seminars (website here). Dan is also the translator of Deleuze's Francis Bacon: The Logic of Sensation, which Deleuze published shortly after giving this seminar. I thank Charles for bringing him in to contribute to our discussion! From the inside flap: “ ” Nathan Smith is a PhD candidate in Music Theory at Yale University nathan.smith@yale.edu Available for the first time in English: the complete and annotated transcripts of Deleuze's 1981 seminars on paintingFrom 1970 until 1987, Gilles Deleuze held a weekly seminar at the Experimental University of Vincennes and, starting in 1980, at Saint-Denis. In the spring of 1981, he began a series of eight seminars on painting and its intersections with philosophy. The recorded sessions, newly transcribed and translated into English, are now available in their entirety for the first time. Extensively annotated by philosopher David Lapoujade, On Painting illuminates Deleuze's thinking on artistic creation, significantly extending the lines of thought in his book Francis Bacon.Through paintings and writing by Rembrandt, Delacroix, Turner, Cézanne, Van Gogh, Klee, Pollock, and Bacon, Deleuze explores the creative process, from chaos to the pictorial fact. The introduction and use of color feature prominently as Deleuze elaborates on artistic and philosophical concepts such as the diagram, modulation, code, and the digital and the analogical. Through this scrutiny, he raises a series of profound and stimulating questions for his students: How does a painter ward off grayness and attain color? What is a line without contour? Why paint at all?Written and thought in a rhizomatic manner that is thoroughly Deleuzian—strange, powerful, and novel—On Painting traverses both the conception of art history and the possibility of color as a philosophical concept.

Risible: Laughter without Reason and the Reproduction of Sound (University of California Press, 2024) explores the forgotten history of laughter, from ancient Greece to the sitcom stages of Hollywood. Delia Casadei approaches laughter not as a phenomenon that can be accounted for by studies of humor and theories of comedy but rather as a technique of the human body, knowable by its repetitive, clipped, and proliferating sound and its enduring links to the capacity for language and reproduction. This buried genealogy of laughter re-emerges with explosive force thanks to the binding of laughter to sound reproduction technology in the late nineteenth century. Analyzing case studies ranging from the early global market for phonographic laughing songs to the McCarthy-era rise of prerecorded laugh tracks, Casadei convincingly demonstrates how laughter was central to the twentieth century's development of the very category of sound as not-quite-human, unintelligible, reproductive, reproducible, and contagious.

In At the Vanguard of Vinyl, Darren Mueller examines how the advent of the long-playing record (LP) in 1948 revolutionized the recording and production of jazz in the 1950s. The LP's increased fidelity and playback capacity allowed lengthy compositions and extended improvisations to fit onto a single record, ushering in a period of artistic exploration. Despite these innovations, LP production became another site of negotiating the uneven power relations of a heavily segregated music industry. Exploring how musicians, producers, and other industry professionals navigated these dynamics, Mueller contends that the practice of making LPs significantly changed how jazz was created, heard, and understood in the 1950s and beyond. By attending to the details of audio production, he reveals how Black musicians such as Louis Armstrong, Miles Davis, Duke Ellington, and Charles Mingus worked to redefine prevailing notions of race and cultural difference within the United States. Mueller demonstrates that the LP emerges as a medium of sound and culture that maps onto the more expansive sonic terrain of Black modernity in the 1950s.

This sermon was preached by Nathan Smith at Covenant Fellowship Church on August 24, 2025. Series: Non-Series Sunday Scripture: 2 Chronicles 20:1-25

With the rise of the gramophone around 1900, the shellac disc traveled the world and eventually became the dominant sound format in the first half of the twentieth century. Format Friction brings together a set of local encounters with the shellac disc, beginning with its preconditions in South Asian knowledge and labor, to offer a global portrait of this format.Spun at seventy-eight revolutions per minute, the shellac disc rapidly became an industrial standard even while the gramophone itself remained a novelty. The very basis of this early sound reproduction technology was friction, an elemental materiality of sound shaped through cultural practice. Using friction as a lens, Gavin Williams illuminates the environments plundered, the materials seized, and the ears entangled in the making of a sound format. Bringing together material, political, and music history, Format Friction decenters the story of a beloved medium, and so explores new ways of understanding listening in technological culture more broadly.

Andrew S. Berish. 2025. Hating Jazz: A History of Its Disparagement, Mockery, and Other Forms of Abuse. (U of Chicago Press, 2025) Some good words from the inside flap: “ A deep dive into the meaning behind the hatred of jazz.A rock guitarist plays four notes in front of one thousand people, while a jazz guitarist plays one thousand notes in front of four people. You might laugh or groan at this jazz joke, but what is it about jazz that makes people want to disparage it in the first place?Andrew S. Berish's Hating Jazz listens to the voices who have denounced, disparaged, and mocked the music. By focusing on the rejection of the music, Berish says, we see more holistically jazz's complicated place in American cultural life. Jazz is a display of Black creativity and genius, an art form that is deeply embedded in African American life. Though the explicit racial tenor of jazz jokes has become muted over time, making fun of jazz, either in a lighthearted or aggressive way, is also an engagement with the place of Blackness in America. An individual's taste in music may seem personal, but Berish's analysis of jazz hatred demonstrates that musical preferences and trends are a social phenomenon. Criticism of jazz has become inextricable from the ways we understand race in America, past and present. In addition to this form of criticism, Berish also considers jazz hate as a form of taste discrimination and as a conflict over genre boundaries within different jazz cultures.Both enlightening and original, Hating Jazz shows that our response to music can be a social act, unique to our historical moment and cultural context—we react to music in certain ways because of who we are, where we are, and when we are. “ Nathan Smith is a PhD candidate in Music Theory at Yale University nathan.smith@yale.edu Learn more about your ad choices.

Nathan Smith, the U.S. Walker Cup captain, and Brad Faxon joined 5 Clubs on Golf Channel. Faxon led off the show talking about The Broadmoor, the host site of the U.S. Senior Open and how the players will need to adjust to the altitude in what Faxon thinks is the biggest event on the Champions Tour. Faxon also talked about Ernie Els, Phil Mickelson, Tiger Woods and Rory McIlroy. Smith discussed how good the new generation is with the depth at the collegiate and junior levels. He talked about Ben James, Jackson Koivin and Michael LaSasso as members of this year's team that will compete at Cypress Point.

On May 25, 2025, Grant Hardin, a convicted killer and former police chief, walks out of the North Central Unit in Calico Rock, Arkansas, disguised in a makeshift guard uniform. His escape sets off an intense manhunt involving the FBI, state police, and federal agencies. In this episode of DEVIANT, host Andrew Iden delves into Hardin's dark history, including the brutal 2017 murder of James Appleton and a cold case sexual assault from 1997. Expert insights from former prosecutor Nathan Smith and corrections consultant Michael Cantrell reveal the challenges law enforcement faces in capturing such a dangerous individual. After more than two weeks on the run, Hardin is found less than two miles from the prison he escaped, raising critical questions about the facility's security. Also, a look at the complexities of manhunts and the serious threats posed by escaped convicts like Hardin.
