2025. április 17., csütörtök 8-9 óra TRUMPOCRACY: a költségcsökkentés láncfűrésze elérte a világ egyik legfontosabb adatbázisát… Megakadhat az egyik, ha nem a legfontosabb kiberbiztonsági adatbázis működése. Az ún. Gyakori sebezhetőségek és kockázatok (Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures) vagyis CVE-programban a rendszergazdák, fejlesztők és kiberbiztonsági szakemberek folyamatosan megosztják a felmerülő problémákat szoftverekkel és hardverekkel, hogy azokat minél előbb befoltozzák. A MITRE nevű nonprofit kutató- és fejlesztőintézet, ami a CVE-t működteti, április 15-én jelezte, hogy másnaptól megszűnik a szerződése az amerikai kormánnyal (egész pontosan a belbiztonsági minisztériummal), ami ahhoz vezethet, hogy nem tudják frissíteni a kulcsfontosságú adatbázist. Emiatt szoftverek és rendszerek sebezhetőbbé válhatnak, ami világszerte komoly kockázatot jelent. „Ha a szolgáltatás megszakadna, több hatása is lenne a CVE-re, többek között a nemzeti sebezhetőségi adatbázisok és tájékoztatók, az eszközgyártók, az incidensekre reagáló műveletek és mindenféle kritikus infrastruktúra romlása” – írta a CVE igazgatótanácsának szóló levelében Yosry Barsoum, a MITRE alelnöke.

Prof. Konrad Paul Liessmann, emeritierter Universitätsprofessor für „Methoden der Vermittlung von Philosophie und Ethik“, ist der Inbegriff eines Public Intellectuals. Seit Jahrzehnten hat er wie kein Zweiter im deutschsprachigen Raum der interssierten Öffentlichkeit Philosophie näher gebracht. Obwohl offiziell im Ruhestand, publiziert und kommentiert er nach wie vor. Neben seiner Arbeit und der Philosophie liebt er Musik, ist begeisterter Plattensammler und Liebhaber von Plattenspielern. Sein jüngster, im Salzburger Residenz Verlag erschienener Essay heißt daher auch "Der Plattenspieler". Wir haben uns mit ihm im Showroom des Wiener HiFi-Händlers Lifelike getroffen, gemeinsam Musik gehört und über Musikwiedergabegeräte im Besonderen und seine musikalische Biographie im Allgemeinen gesprochen. Heute, im ersten Teil des Gesprächs, geht es um die ersten Platten seiner Kindheit, musikalische Weggabelungen, Adornos Verachtung von Populärmusik, Nick Hornby und den Soundtrack der 68er Bewegung.

In our world of urgency, certitudes, and immediate access to a flood of information, could it be that a humble curiosity, inspired awe, and delightful wonder might give us the strength to heal and thrive?Using an expansive emotional vocabulary matched with wit and care, TV host, podcaster, and author Kelly Corrigan is inviting the world to relational vulnerability, compassionate curiosity, and stalwart bravery to face our biggest problems through listening and loving wonder.In this conversation with Kelly Corrigan, we discuss:Her approach to having conversations that feel transformative—the kind that unlock and open us upHow wonder grounds her spirituality and personal vocationThe profound lessons she learned from her mother and father, and how each showed up for her when she was at her lowestHow to learn wisdom and leadership through coaching and mentoringHow to build the emotional container of home for a familyWhat it means to be brave in our world todayAnd how to communicate love through the simple act of listening through three simple invitations: “Tell me more!, What else?, and Go on.”About Kelly CorriganKelly Corrigan is a journalist of wonder.

And that adulthood is knowing when to pull out which piece of paper.”Childhood and parental influence reveal deep insights into a person's adult self.Vivid childhood memories help shape storytelling and personal understanding.“A strong, detailed memory of an experience is an indicator that there's a lot there for you.”Famous people also deal with everyday concerns, which makes them relatable.“They're just looking for a sandwich at lunchtime.”Perspective shifts with age, realizing that many things once thought important aren't.“There's 8 billion people here. It doesn't matter what I say and do.”Embracing the paradox of being both insignificant and uniquely valuable.“Being an adult is holding in one pocket that you are ashes to ashes, dust to dust… and in the other pocket that you are a never-to-be-repeated miracle.”Kelly's father, George Corrigan, was an enthusiastic listener and deeply engaging with others.“The thing you need to know about me is I'm George Corrigan's daughter.”Her father's ability to find something lovable in everyone influenced her deeply.“He wasn't looking for people just like him… he could become engaged in something he knew nothing about.”Kelly Corrigan's TED Talk, "To Love Is to Be Brave"Her mother, Mary Corrigan, was structured, disciplined, and devoted to family. “She went to church every single day.”Passed away six weeks before the interview, leaving a strong legacy.”I felt like I had been loved and people cared about me. Not excessively, not obsessively, but you know, like I was safe in the world.”Getting the love you needRecognizing bravery in everyday family life and personal struggles.Nick Hornby's experience of receiving a book—that filled him with a sense of pride and recognitionCoaching JV Lacrosse in Piedmont, CA—and seeing the impact of “seeing people” and offering loving recognition—the power of making young girls feel seenParents handling difficult conversations with children require immense courage.“There's so much happening inside every house that's deeply brave and very complex.”Kelly Corrigan's spiritual upbringing—raised Catholic and participated in church traditions but felt distanced from the institution because of patriarchy and abuse scandals“The dominant feeling I had in Catholicism was that there's this superstructure of men who tell you if you're good or bad.”Disillusionment with the Catholic Church following abuse scandals.“My religion is wonder.”Finds spiritual connection through nature, puzzles, painting, and observing small details.“I mean, I can really go crazy on a leaf.”Painting as a practice of attention: “ it slows you way down and you have to focus on something so minute.”How to deal with emotional flooding through physical practices like walkingKelly Corrigan on Thriving—deeply connected to being in service to others.“I probably thrive best when I'm in service to something.”“And then they say, ‘Okay, Kelly, we're ready. Action.' And then it's just me and this other person and the fullness of our attention to one another is thrilling by virtue of the fact that it's so damn rare. And sometimes when I'm finished, I'm like, there's almost like a romance to it. You know, like where I'm like, I, I love you. I love the experience that we just had.”Clarity and purpose often come in caregiving moments, like her parents' passing.“90 minutes of pure connection.”Pam King's experience of her daughter's hospitalization after a rare infectionKelly describes her experience of cancer in her thirties.Be mindful of what you consume—both media and information.“Junk in, junk out.”Engage in hobbies that disconnect from screens, such as painting and cooking.“Read poetry. Read it out loud.”You should be really careful what you let in your head.“If you're small in the frame, you're just going to move more freely. And if you're big in the frame, if you're the most important thing in your whole life, God help you.”Politics and voting or acting against your own self-interestsKelly Corrigan's conversation with April Lawson on abortionRedefining bravery“And the reward is a full human experience.”The meaning of familyThe experience of selling her childhood home after 55 years and how that raised questions about the meaning of family and connection—“We bought it on July 7, 1969, and it sold on July 7, 2024.”“Will it hold? … Is it durable? … A place of comfort?”“I think most parents would say the biggest project they've ever undertaken was to try to build a family.”“Is this thing that was the most important thing I ever built durable?”The emotional container of homeAn expansive emotional vocabulary“More questions, fewer statements.”Encouraging curiosity in her children as a lifelong tool“Ask questions. Tell me more. What else? Go on.”“Just ask questions. Nobody's listening. So just be the person who listens. It's like the lowest bar.”Enabling someone to get over themselvesCreating space for another person's life, story, and emotions to unfold“So embrace intellectual humility and just assume that you do not have any relevant information to give them and that your only work is to keep saying, tell me more, what else go on? And they'll talk their way into a solution.”“And so it's a little bit of like physiological adjustment. And then it's also this intellectual pause. And it's also a big emotional pause. So like, do your dishes slowly with a scent that you like. … It's like a tiny reset.”Live takeaways from Pam and Kelly“Wonder is cheap and accessible and effective. It's like, free!”Embody wonder into the power of listening.“Part of the reason why Christy Turlington is so beautiful is her posture. So sit up straight.”“500 questions before you marry someone and commit your life to them is not a bad idea.”“Junk in, junk out. Like be careful what you put in your head. Your head is a sacred space. Do not put junk in there. Don't listen to junk. Don't watch junk. Don't read junk. Like, it's sacred. Think of it as like a cathedral. You wouldn't take like a shitty meatball sub and eat it in the backseat of a cathedral. You know what I mean?”“ The fullness of life involves this full cup that is full of joys and sorrows.”“ It only takes one person. It only takes one person to correct for a lot of absence. Doesn't mean it's going to be perfect. It doesn't mean it's going to wipe away every ounce of pain, but one person investing can compensate for a lot that's been missing.”Deep interviews as rare opportunities for pure connection“It's weirdly unusual to have a full hour of pure connection.”Facing fear and hardship as part of the full human experience“A full human experience includes all the emotions at full maximum dosage.”Finding purpose in slowing down and being intentional with habits“Evaluate your diet—not just food, but content, relationships, and daily habits.” About the Thrive CenterLearn more at thethrivecenter.org.Follow us on Instagram @thrivecenterFollow us on X @thrivecenterFollow us on LinkedIn @thethrivecenter About Dr. Pam KingDr. Pam King is Executive Director the Thrive Center and is Peter L.

„Komédiánk hősének lövése sincs a művészetről. Devolt kidobóként, Dave-et mégis egy kortárs galériában alkalmazzák, hogy egy ellentmondásos műalkotástőrizzen. A kép 3 méter magas és 1,60 m széles, és hát… elégkülönös technikával készült. Vannak, akiknek nem tetszik és sokféleképp értelmezhető. Ám Dave véleménye a művészetről – és erről a konkrét képről – lassan átalakul és egyre nagyobb vehemenciával védi a műtárgyat felesége, amédia és egy csomó felháborodott vallási fanatikus ellen…” - a világhírű angol író, Nick Hornby novelláját BodorGéza rendezte összművészeti előadássá. A CiciKrisztusnak a Kiscelli Múzeum ad otthont, Dave szerepében Ficzere Bélát látjuk. Erről a darabról és színészethez, rendezéshez fűződő viszonyáról beszél ebben az interjúban Bodor Géza.
Seit ihrem Durchbruch im Kultfilm "Abgeschminkt" in den 90ern, ist sie aus der Film - und Fernsehlandschaft nicht mehr wegzudenken. Gerade steht sie auf der Bühne der Komödie am Ku'damm im Ernst-Reuter-Saal in Reinickendorf im zwei Personen Stück "Keiner hat gesagt, dass Du ausziehen sollst", eine Beziehungskomödie von Nick Hornby.
Ficzere Béla színművész a CiciKrisztus című különleges előadás főszereplője. A darab, amely eddig kizárólag teltházas előadásokkal ment, februártól új helyszínre, a Kiscelli Múzeumba költözött. Nick Hornby novellájából készült ez a rendhagyó monodráma, amely egyszerre humoros és elgondolkodtató. Miért vált ki egyesekből rajongást, másokból felháborodást egy műalkotás? Mi történik, ha valami, amit elsőre értelmetlennek találunk, hirtelen mégis hat ránk? És mi van, ha egy ember, aki eddig csak kívülállóként figyelte a művészetet, egyszer csak annak legelszántabb védelmezőjévé válik?A CiciKrisztus igazán különleges élmény: minden egyes alkalom egy tárlatvezetéssel indul a Kiscelli Múzeum Több szálon című időszaki kiállításában, ahol műhelytitkok és évtizedekig elfeledett műtárgyak kerülnek reflektorfénybe. Az előadás után pedig egy pohár bor mellett még a látottakról is lehet beszélgetni.Az eredetileg havonta 1-2 előadást tervező produkció decemberben 5, januárban pedig 6 teltházzal búcsúzott a BTM Vármúzemtól, ott ugyanis február elején bezár a CiciKrisztusnak helyet adó kiállítás. Az előadás iránti nagy érdeklődés arra ösztönözte az alkotókat, hogy a korábbihoz hasonlóan izgalmas befogadó közeget találjon ennek az egyszemélyes darabnak. Különleges tereivel, egyedi tárgyakból, műalkotásokból álló gyűjteményeivel, és az ott jellemző páratlanul élénk művészeti élettel a Kiscelli Múzeum kiváló új „otthona” a CiciKrisztusnak, amely egyszerre szórakoztató és elgondolkodtató előadás.Mitől lett ez a darab kultikus? Hogyan képes egy humoros monológ életre kelteni egy teljes világot? És mi az, amit a nézők magukkal visznek erről az estéről?

SportWoche Podcast ist einem 142seitigen Büchlein gewidmet, das ich seit 2008 jedes Jahr zu Jahresbeginn neu verschlinge. Damit ist es auch für mich der perfekte SportWoche-Auftaktpodcast für 2025. Denn BigMac ist wohl das einzige Vorbild, das ich je hatte. Im Buch von Tim Adams geht es weniger um eine Biografie, sondern eher um die Unmenge an Neuem, das dieser genial wirre Kopf mit der besten Hand ever (sorry, Roger Federer) in die Sportwelt gebracht hat. Im Podcast geht es u.a. um den Aufschlag, Björn Borg, das ganze Universum in einen Schlag gepackt, Tischtennis, David Bowie, Nick Hornby, Holz, Tauben verschwundene Füsse und imaginäre Gebäude. Ach ja: Being John Malkovich war wohl Inspiration für den Titel. https://www.amazon.com/Being-John-McEnroe-Tim-Adams/dp/3827007909 Cover vor McEnroe Postern daheim: https://photaq.com/page/pic/96562/ Die SportWoche Podcasts sind presented by Instahelp: Psychologische Beratung online, ohne Wartezeit, vertraulich & anonym.

Isabel Bogdans Romane sind Bestseller, werden verfilmt, haben Witz, berühren und gehen ans Herz. Viele Jahre hat sie ausschließlich als Übersetzerin gearbeitet, hat Texte von Jonathan Safran Foer, Nick Hornby oder Jane Gardam ins Deutsche übertragen. Bis sie 2016 ihren Debütroman "Der Pfau" veröffentlichte. Die Geschichte über einen Pfau, der in den schottischen Highlands sein Unwesen treibt.
Wenn sie schreibt, dann mit Erfolg. Ihre Romane sind Bestseller, werden verfilmt, haben Witz, berühren und gehen ans Herz. Isabel Bogdan nimmt es sehr genau mit den Wörtern, experimentiert und jongliert mit ihnen bis sie sitzen. Viele Jahre hat sie ausschließlich als Übersetzerin gearbeitet, hat Texte von Jonathan Safran Foer, Nick Hornby oder Jane Gardam ins Deutsche übertragen. Bis sie 2016 ihren Debütroman "Der Pfau" veröffentlichte. Die Geschichte über einen Pfau, der in den schottischen Highlands sein Unwesen treibt. Seitdem beglückt Isabel Bogdan ihr Lesepublikum mit neuen, sehr unterschiedlich anmutenden Geschichten. Jüngst erschien ihr Roman "Wohnverwandtschaften". Mit Claudia Christophersen spricht Isabel Bogdan in "NDR Kultur à la carte" über Erfolg, über das Schreiben, über Wohn- und Lebensmodelle, die womöglich auch eine Initiative gegen Einsamkeit sein könnten.
Bodor Géza rendező, színművész “édesgyermekéről”, a “Cicikrisztus” című színházi előadásról mesél, amelynek színpadra állítása régi vágya volt. A média képviselőinek tartott elő-premier óta konkrétan az egész szakma Géza zseniális rendezéséről és a főszereplő brillírozásáról beszél, mert a nézőket rabul ejtette. Ez a szokatlan produkció a BTM Vármúzeum “Művek és történetek” kiállításának közepén játszódik, vagyis különleges múzeumi helyszínen. A komédia egy egykori kidobóról szól, aki egy kortárs műalkotást őriz, és a művészet iránti véleménye lassan, de biztosan átalakul. A helyzetkomikumokkal teli előadásban Ficzere Béla alakítja Dave-t, aki szembesül a művészet, a média és a vallási fanatikusok nyomásával is. A darabot a világhírű Nick Hornby novellájából állította színpadra Géza.A Sláger FM-en minden este 22 órakor a kultúráé a főszerep S. Miller András az egyik oldalon, a másikon pedig a térség kiemelkedő színházi kulturális, zenei szcena résztvevői Egy óra Budapest és Pest megye aktuális kult történeteivel.

As part of The New York Times Book Review's project on the 100 Best Books published since the year 2000, Nick Hornby called "Say Nothing: A True Story of Murder and Memory in Northern Ireland" one of the "greatest literary achievements of the 21st century." The author Patrick Radden Keefe joins host Gilbert Cruz to talk about his book, which has now been adapted into an FX miniseries.Keefe has now seen his reporting on the life of Irish Republican Army soldier Dolours Price and others make its way from a New Yorker magazine article to an acclaimed nonfiction book to a streaming series. "In terms of storytelling, I try to write in a way that is as visceral and engaging as possible," Keefe said. "But the toolkit that you have when you make a series is so much more visceral. It's almost fissile in its power." Unlock full access to New York Times podcasts and explore everything from politics to pop culture.

Send us a textThis is not your 2005 Fever Pitch. We watch the 1997 Fever Pitch with Colin Firth so you don't have to. But if you're a fan of Mr. Darcy, maybe you still want to. If your a fan of Arsenal FC, maybe you still want to. We talk Firth Fros, how dumb it is to be a sports fan, even though we still are, and the differences between UK versions of things and their US counterparts. Meaning we talk about this movie and the 2005 version and the UK Office and the US Office. And we get in to hot water with some hot takes about soccer/football. Come for the banter and stay to get really mad at us, or agree with us.

"La musica ha un grande potere: ti riporta indietro nel momento stesso in cui ti porta avanti, così che provi, contemporaneamente, nostalgia e speranza".(Nick Hornby)
Based on the much-lauded Nick Hornby classic, our Jen has picked filmic festival of football, Fever Pitch. But will protagonist and giant man-child Paul, played by Colin Firth, float Hannah or Jen's boat? And what is the film trying to say, other than that women don't like football?

Puntata a cura di Untimoteo.L'incasinata trentenne Rob, dopo l'ennesima delusione d'amore, decide di dedicarsi all'unica cosa che non l'ha mai tradita: la musica. La vita però non sembra volerle dar tregua, tra fiamme del passato e nuove intriganti avventure. High Fidelity (2020, una sola stagione per 10 puntate) vede un'ottima prova di Zoe Kravitz. Lo show, ben fatto, è tratto dall'omonimo film del 2000 con John Cusack, che a sua volta si basa sul romanzo best-seller del 1995 dello scrittore britannico Nick Hornby. Colonna sonora, prevedibilmente, da sballo. "5 minuti 1 serie" è il format di Mondoserie che racconta appunto una serie in cinque minuti, più o meno.

Have you ever gone back to really examine something you loved when you were younger? This month we dig into our record collection and put a fresh spin on Nick Hornby's 1995 novel High Fidelity. The movie of this film from 2000 made a big impact on me in high school, so much so that I didn't even realize how much I thought about it in my day to day life. We have a compilation of takes on the book, including why I think the protagonist Rob struggles so much. Make sure you turntable speed is set to 33 RPM, this is definitely and LP.
The finale of our season on the awesome movie year of 2000 features our audience choice poll winner, Stephen Frears' High Fidelity. Directed by Stephen Frears (based on the novel by Nick Hornby) and starring John Cusack, Iben Hjejle, Jack Black and Todd Louiso, High Fidelity defeated two other music-themed dramas in our audience choice poll.The contemporary reviews quoted in this episode come from Roger Ebert (https://www.rogerebert.com/reviews/high-fidelity-2000), Stephen Holden in The New York Times (https://archive.nytimes.com/www.nytimes.com/library/film/033100fidelity-film-review.html), and Owen Gleiberman in Entertainment Weekly (https://ew.com/article/2000/03/24/high-fidelity-8/).Thanks to special guest Rich Rosen of Wax Trax Records in Las Vegas for joining us.

Our exit today has us making our ultimate mixtape and talking about our worst break ups. This week, we are talking about High Fidelity, based on the Nick Hornby novel and directed by Stephen Frears. And, we have picked up a passenger for the episode, friend of the show and quizmaster extraordinaire Taylor Cole! Along the way, Taylor becomes the first person to ever compare High Fidelity to Taxi Driver, Ross uses the word "myopic" way too much, and we discuss the rise of Jack Black, John Cusack as romantic lead, the benefits of talking directly to the camera, Stevie Wonder, the musical and TV adaptations of High Fidelity, and what some actors will do for a great wig. Plus, Taylor brings a fun game to stump Tripp and Ross! Thememusic by Jonworthymusic. Powered by RiversideFM. The Great American Pop Culture Quiz Show, hosted by Taylor Cole.

I speak with author Liz Riggs about the impending publication of her debut novel, Lo Fi out on Riverhead Books June 9. Liz's publisher was kind enough to send me an advance copy, and from paragraph one I recognized the reverb-drenched setting — a world of live bands, late nights, broken AC, unravelling yard parties, and half-remembered conversations over hand-rolled joints — as my own. I was a devoted participant of the world of Lo Fi, namely the post-flood Nashville of the 2010s. I went to the clubs, I closed down the dive bars. Some remain (The Basement, The Blue Room, The 5 spot) many do not (RIP Mercy Lounge, 12th and Porter, ) but Lo-Fi's whiskey-soaked setting was for me an irresistible reminiscence of a Nashville that no longer exists.Because the protagonist was so well-drawn, I assumed Liz herself worked at a club in town. She didn't, it turns out. We talk about what she did do, and how her fangirl inclinations (she admits to a teenage fascination with a well know 90s boyband) were easily transferred to her enthusiastic main character. I'm always fascinated to hear an author describe her path to publication — everyone's is different, and in listening to the particulars of one I find inspiration for my own way forward. We talk about Liz's journey, including the nail-biting weeks, days and hours where she awaited her prospective publisher's final word as to Lo-Fi's fate. I've read of writers (mostly dead ones honestly) who scrawled out their first drafts in longhand. But I've never met a contemporary who does it. Liz talked about her preference for the pen, and the freedom that results from a page one decision to unplug.We discuss her decision to set the story in a time that predates the social-media everything culture of today, and how that absence made it easier to tell a story about criss-crossed communication and the innocence of fledgling love. We compared notes and found some shared ground in our attraction to artists who write their own material, as opposed to those who sing the songs other people make for them. Finally we talk about what's great about living in a town with enough neon appeal to be called “It City” by the New York Times, and what's maybe not so great about that. If you like books like Nick Hornby's High-Fidelity, or Roddy Doyle's The Commitments, you'll find alot to like about Lo-Fi too. Here's a link to pre-order the book, and if you live in Nashville Liz is celebrating with a release show June 9 at the OG Basement with performances by Chris Housman and Vinnie Paolizzi.Find Liz:Instagram https://www.instagram.com/riggser/Website https://www.lizriggs.com/The Morse Code is a reader-supported publication.

Serge Bielanko was one of the leading forces behind the Philadelphia-based rock & roll band Marah. Part Replacements, part Van Morrison, part Phil Spector, part Rod Stewart & The Faces, part Philly & Motown soul, for years they were poised for success as the “next big rock & roll band”. Marah was a critic's darling and counted some famous folks (Jason Isbell, Steve Earle, Bruce Springsteen, and several authors)as part of their fan base. Another fan, many listeners of this podcast know, is the late Kevin Cassidy who caught on to them late, but made up for lost time with a real passion for the band. Nick Hornby, author of “High Fidelity” in the NY Times March 2004“ '20,000 Streets Under the Sky'' is [Marah's] fourth album, and they're by no means famous yet, as the passing of the hat in the Fiddler's Elbow indicates. But what I love about them is that I can hear everything I ever loved about rock music in their recordings and in their live shows. Indeed, in the shows you can often hear their love for the rock canon uninflected -- they play covers of the Replacements' ''Can't Hardly Wait,'' or the Jam's ''In the City,'' and they usually end with a riffed-up version of the O'Jays' ''Love Train.'' They play an original called ''The Catfisherman'' with a great big Bo Diddley beat, and they quote the Beatles' ''Tomorrow Never Knows'' and the Who's ''Magic Bus.'' And they do this not because they're a bar band and people expect cover versions, but because they are unafraid of showing where their music comes from, and unafraid of the comparisons that will ensue -- just as Bruce Springsteen (who really did play ''Little Latin Lupe Lu'' for an encore, sometimes) was unafraid.” Stephen King, author of a million great horror novels, Entertainment Weekly 2006“If You Didn't Laugh, You'd Cry-Marah. An apt enough title, when you consider that this is probably the best rock band in America that nobody knows. Am I being an elitist here, trying to one-up my audience? Nope. Marah is great in the scat, bop, and jive way Springsteen was great on The Wild, the Innocent & the E Street Shuffle. One listen to songs like ”The Closer” and ”Fat Boy” on this amazing record and I think you'll agree. These guys are either the American U2 or close enough for government work.” In March 2000, shortly after the opening of Tower Records on the Ave of the Arts in Philadelphia, they dropped their magnum opus “Kids In Philly”. Opening with a blaring foghorn, sounding an alarm, “Kids in Philly” quickly sets about a musical tour de force of their city, Philadelphia, complete with the sounds of present and past. Tower Records Avenue of the Arts hosted Marah for their “Kids in Philly” day-of-release in-store. As the years passed Tower Philadelphia and Lincoln Center hosted Marah for 4 in-stores in 5 years. With their follow-up album, Marah took a sharp left turn with an album produced by Owen Morris, best known for his work with Oasis, The Verve, and Kaiser Chiefs. The album landed with a thud, leaving Marah's base of supporters befuddled and not picking up any new fans. From there the band went back to a more familiar style and continued to work their way back. Despite releasing a total of 9 albums, drama never seemed too far from the band. Throughout the years various musicians rotated in and out of Marah until Serge ultimately quit the band to pursue other interests including writing a weekly column called “Thunder Pie” https://sergebielanko.substack.com.Join us for an epic conversation about the ups, downs, ins & outs of rock and roll in the 20th & 21st century with Serge Bielanko.

Taylor Swift, David Bowie, Sigur Ros, Rob de Nijs, Roxy Dekker, Flemming en een blauwe hond. Ze hebben gemeen dat ze allen de popcultuurrevue van IKID deze week passeerden. Alex was er niet, Hanneke was al dagen larie en Nynke en Anne waren emo. Vanwege een blauwe hond. Verder zijn we vreselijk geschrokken van de cast van de Dertigers. We zijn tot de conclusie gekomen dat we zelf meer Golden Girls dan Veertigers zijn. Anne valt in slaap bij voetbal, Hanneke valt over stoepranden, Nynke valt voor een blauwe hond. En wat zei Nick Hornby precies tegen Hanneke buiten bij de AFAS? En wanneer worden we schuldvrij en verdwenen de stemmetjes uit ons hoofd? Dat en meer in Ik Ken Golden Girls!Groeten!

Join me this week for an enlightening discussion with Priscilla Gilman, acclaimed author of the upcoming paperback release of her critically acclaimed memoir, The Critic's Daughter. Priscilla, a former professor of English literature at Yale and Vassar, brings a wealth of insight as we explore the intricacies of co-parenting and divorce. Beyond her literary achievements, Priscilla is one of my oldest friends, which adds a personal touch to our conversation. The Critic's Daughter becomes a guide on what not to do when faced with the complexities of divorce, providing a personal and poignant account of Priscilla's experiences. It's a rare opportunity to glimpse into my childhood, too, and witness the powerful narrative of Priscilla's parents' divorce – a tale of resilience, hardship, and the mistakes made during an era when people simply didn't know how to get divorced without deeply affecting their children. Learn more about Priscilla Gilman: Priscilla Gilman is a former professor of English literature at both Yale University and Vassar College and the author of The Anti-Romantic Child: A Story of Unexpected Joy (Harper), and The Critic's Daughter (Norton). The Anti-Romantic Child was excerpted in Newsweek magazine and featured on the cover of its international edition. It received starred reviews in Publishers Weekly and Booklist, was an NPR Morning Edition Must-Read, Slate‘s Book of the Week, one of the year's Best Books for the Leonard Lopate Show and The Chicago Tribune, and one of five nominees for a Books for a Better Life Award for Best First Book. Andrew Solomon called it “rapturously beautiful and deeply moving, profound, and marvelous.” Gilman's second book, The Critic's Daughter, was published by W.W. Norton in February 2023 (paperback February 2024); a memoir about her relationship with her brilliant and complicated father, the late drama and literary critic Richard Gilman, it is set in the heyday of intellectual culture in New York of the 1970s and 80s. The Critic's Daughter received starred reviews in Kirkus and Booklist; Nick Hornby called it “Beautiful: honest, raw, careful, soulful, brave and incredibly readable.” It was a Washington Post Best Book of 2023, a New York Times Book Critics' Favorite Book of 2023, one of the Los Angeles Times' book critic and Book Maven Bethanne Patrick's Top 10 Non-Fiction Books of 2023, one of the "18 Books Lilith magazine Loved in 2023," and 3rd on Bookreporter's Harvey Freedenburg's Favorite Books of 2023.

Talent will always win out. At least, I hope so. Talent and creativity and humor and perseverance. But all of us need a moment that opens the window to the rest of our lives. That window opened for Nick Hornby during a conversation with an agent that was not going particularly well. Nick decided “what the hell” at the end of the conversation and pitched a book idea that he knew would be rejected by the agent. The agent loved the idea and Nick Hornby was off and running. How lucky for us to be along for the ride. I hope you enjoy part 2 of my conversation with Nick Hornby.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
durée : 00:06:53 - La chronique de Juliette Arnaud - par : Juliette ARNAUD - C'est la fin de la trêve hivernale pour le foot français. C'est-à-dire que les matchs reprennent. Pour l'occasion, Juliette a relu un classique de ce sport (oui oui, ça existe) : "Carton Jaune" de Nick Hornby, son écrivain anglais vivant préféré.
Nick Hornby has never written the phone book, to use an old expression. But if he did, I'd read it. Hornby is one of those writers who elicits unbridled enthusiasm from his unabashed admirers. Count me in, thanks to books like High Fidelity, Fever Pitch and About A Boy. He always had a love of reading and writing and music and sports. But turning it into a lifetime of books and a way to make a living? That was more than a few years in coming. But come it did. How fortunate are we.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
