The music industry can be hard to navigate, and harder to stomach. Sometimes, the industry seems to magnify all of your biggest insecurities, and the Imposter Syndrome is real.BUT electro-pop artist Robbie Wabi Sabi says that we artists have to stick together, and that you have to be your own biggest fan. You also have to connect meaningfully with your audience.In this episode, Emmeline sits down with Robbie Wabi Sabi, a synthesizer-obsessed drum machine lover who's been writing and producing his own music since the 1980s. While Robbie's career in music has experienced multiple iterations and transformations, he feels like THIS era is his best one yet--in part because of the enthusiasm he has for his own music and for the music community in which he exists and creates. He shares his tips for building self-confidence, keeping oneself relevant, and maintaining joy while creating. He also talks about his latest single, "Beautiful and Nerdy," and tells Emmeline why every Robbie Wabi Sabi show is actually one big party.To learn more about Robbie Wabi Sabi, or to follow his musical journey, find him on Instagram, check him out on YouTube, or stream his music on Spotify.

In this episode of "F-Stop Collaborate and Listen," host Matt Payne sits down with photographer Casey Fatchett, who shares insights from his 25-year career capturing weddings, portraits, and events. Casey reveals how his background in acting and stand-up comedy has influenced his approach to connecting authentically with clients and disarming tense situations, especially as an introvert. He emphasizes the importance of emotional content, authenticity, and staying true to one's unique photographic voice rather than chasing trends or external validation. The episode also touches on the challenges of curating timeless images, the value of constructive feedback, and building a personal style rooted in genuine human connection. Casey also discusses his own podcast, "The Nerdy Photographer," which dives into the thought processes behind great photography.

The definitive history of twenty-first-century indie rock-from Iron & Wine and Death Cab for Cutie to Phoebe Bridgers and St. Vincent-and how the genre shifted the musical landscape and shaped a generationMaybe you caught a few exhilarating seconds of "Teen Age Riot" on a nearby college radio station while scanning the FM dial in your parents' car. Maybe your friend invited you to a shabby local rock club and you ended up having a religious experience with Neutral Milk Hotel. Perhaps you were scandalized and tantalized upon sneaking Liz Phair's Exile in Guyville from an older sibling's CD collection, or you vowed to download every Radiohead song you could find on LimeWire because they were the favorite band of the guy you had a major crush on.However you found your way into indie rock, once you were a listener, it felt like being part of a secret club of people who had discovered something special, something secret, something superior. In Such Great Heights, music journalist Chris DeVille brilliantly captures this cultural moment, from the early aughts and the height of indie rock, until the 2010s as streaming upends the industry and changes music forever. DeVille covers the gamut of bands-like Arcade Fire, TV On The Radio, LCD Soundsystem, Haim, Pavement, and Bon Iver-and in the vein of Chuck Klosterman's The Nineties, touches on staggering pop culture moments, like finding your new favorite band on MySpace and the life-changing O.C. soundtrack.Nerdy, fun, and a time machine for millennials, Such Great Heights is about how subculture becomes pop culture, how capitalism consumes what's "cool," who gets to define what's hip and why, and how an "underground" genre shaped our lives.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/arroe-collins-unplugged-totally-uncut--994165/support.

A live, dice-driven episode of Wise_N_Nerdy where fatherhood truly meets fandom. Charles, Joe, and special guest Josh Cooper (Uploads of Fun) kick off with bad dad jokes, rule on a contentious Parliament of Papas case (Disney vs. Comic-Con), and trade stories about rewatching childhood movies as parents—TV edits, innuendo, and all. Audience mic stories bring the heat, from TMNT's rooftop to Robocop's cartoon tie-ins. The crew closes with practical strategies for overcoming sheltered upbringings: context, conversation, and teaching courage instead of fear.Bad Dad Jokes (rolled a 6)Icebreakers from stage and audience (dragons + fast food; “Poof! You're a drink.”).Ongoing bit: “There is no such thing as a good dad joke.”Parliament of Papas (rolled a 4)Reddit case: “Am I the buttface for going to Comic-Con after my wife took our kid (and her ex) to Disney without me—using our miles?”Panel reaction: finances + co-parenting ≠ unilateral decisions; ex attending without current spouse is a relational red flag.Consensus: wife = primary buttface; husband needs boundaries; bigger issue is relationship health.Daddy, Tell Me a Story (rolled a 2) — Rewatching childhood movies as parentsExamples: Caddyshack, Revenge of the Nerds, Three Fugitives, Firestarter, TMNT (1990 rooftop scene), Blankman, Transformers: The Movie ('86 toy-reset trauma), Robocop (how was this a cartoon?), The Ringer, Monty Python: Meaning of Life.Themes: TV edits vs. theatrical cuts; using IMDb Parents Guide; explaining dated humor; navigating innuendo in “family” animation; when to pause/skip with kids.How do I overcome my sheltered upbringing? (segued after gift moment)Hosts/guest share growing up Pentecostal/Southern Baptist/Mormon variations: satanic panic era (D&D, Magic cards), filtered DVD players, language rules.Parenting approaches now: teach context and timing for language; “if you don't know what it means, don't say it”; consent to discuss anything; “If it's on TV, it's not real.”Tools for fear/nightmares: teach lucid-dream control (look at your hand; give yourself a bazooka), anchor objects (a huggable TARDIS), model calm vs. catastrophizing.Live mic stories: rewatch shocks (Harry Potter attitudes, Severance tension without nudity, Blue Eye Samurai content surprise, 2001: A Space Odyssey at age six, Jaws jump scare), “that channel” confessions, schoolyard language, and representing disability positively in The Ringer.Parenting wisdom from audience: treat kids as autonomous humans; teach agency, not fear.Family-friendly doesn't mean sterile—context, conversation, and consent beat blanket bans.Rewatches are opportunities: talk era, edits, and what's changed culturally.Co-parenting logistics require transparency, not unilateral “surprises.”Teach courage over fear; give kids cognitive tools to manage scary media and language.“Everything I do is family-friendly—as long as you're my family.” —Charles“Teach time and place. Context turns ‘forbidden' into teachable.” —Josh“The second you posted to Reddit, you knew the answer—this is a relationship problem.” —Panel“If it's on TV, it's not real. And we can talk about anything.” —Charles

Sped-up voices. Wacky instruments. Songs about cavemen, bathtubs, bikinis, and mothers-in-law. From the dawn of rock ‘n' roll through the 1970s—the age of streaking, CB radios, disco and King Tut—novelty songs could be chart-topping hits. But by the corporate '80s, it was harder for goofballs to score hits on regimented radio playlists. Until one perm-headed, mustachioed, accordion-playing parodist who called himself “Weird” rebooted novelty hits for the new millennium. In the second part of this encore episode of Hit Parade, Chris Molanphy explores the history of novelty hits on the charts. Podcast production by Justin D. Wright and Kevin Bendis.
