Best-selling and award-winning authors Robert Rodriguez and Jerry Hammack are on the podcast to talk about Ribbons Of Rust: The Beatles' Recording History In Context: Volume 1 - July 1954 Through January 1963.The Beatles' story has been told many times, but often with little focus on their personal experiences during their era. John Lennon, Paul McCartney, George Harrison, Ringo Starr, and producer George Martin were influenced by the sounds around them. Ribbons of Rust presents their journey by immersing readers in the music and times they lived in. The first volume, richly illustrated with period artifacts, takes you with The Beatles from their early inspirations to their initial compositions and covers. Rodriguez and Hammack explore how The Beatles developed their sound in Liverpool and Hamburg, drawing on American rock 'n' roll and deeper cultural traditions, ultimately securing a recording contract with EMI. Spanning July 1954 to January 1963, the book details the post-war British music scene and the influences that shaped The Beatles, bringing readers into the studio with them, from early Liverpool recordings to Hamburg sessions.

New developments in the case against Bryan Kohberger, the suspect in the University of Idaho student murders, suggest that he may have purchased a K-Bar-style knife—the same type of weapon believed to have been used in the killings—on Amazon prior to the attack. According to investigative sources, law enforcement uncovered Amazon purchase records tied to Kohberger's account, which allegedly show he bought a combat knife matching the profile of the murder weapon. The K-Bar is a military-style fixed blade known for its lethality, and forensic analysts have long suspected such a weapon was used in the brutal stabbings.This new piece of evidence is considered damning by prosecutors because it may directly link Kohberger to the murder weapon, something previously lacking in the case. While no physical knife has yet been recovered, digital forensics revealing a purchase trail could help establish premeditation and intent, two key elements for a first-degree murder conviction. Kohberger's defense team is expected to challenge the authenticity, ownership, and timing of the purchase, but if verified, this could significantly strengthen the prosecution's narrative that he meticulously planned the killings.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Bryan Kohberger's damning Amazon history revealed ahead of Idaho trial - as he points to multiple killers | Daily Mail Online

We're talking Paul McCartney in this episode. Specifically his music during the decade of the 90s. Author JR Moores has a new book out now titled Off The Ground: Paul McCartney in the 1990s. This was an era like no other for McCartney, perhaps even the most significant decade of his entire career after the 1960s.Following a shakier 1980s, the decade would see him reemerge with greater energy, momentum, and self-belief. JR Moores's sympathetic but not uncritical new book explores McCartney's '90s, with its impressive studio and live albums, colossal tours, unexpected side-projects, imaginative collaborations, forays into classical composition, some new Beatles numbers, and a whole lot more besides. Moores reveals how McCartney's reputation began to be perceived more generously by the public, and he argues that his output and activities in the '90s would uncover more about the person behind them than in any other decade. Purchase a copy of Off The Ground: Paul McCartney in the 1990sFollow JJ Moores:BlueskyInstagramX Episode Playlist ---------- BookedOnRock.com The Booked On Rock Store The Booked On Rock YouTube Channel Follow The Booked On Rock with Eric Senich:FACEBOOKINSTAGRAMTIKTOKX Find Your Nearest Independent Bookstore Contact The Booked On Rock Podcast: thebookedonrockpodcast@gmail.com The Booked On Rock Music: “Whoosh” by Crowander / “Last Train North” & “No Mercy” by TrackTribe

Rik Emmett of Triumph returns to the podcast. The singer/songwriter/guitarist behind the hit Triumph songs “Hold On”, “Lay It On The Line”, “Fight The Good Fight”, “Magic Power”, and “Somebody's Out There” is about to release his second book. Ten Telecaster Tales: Liner Notes for a Guitar and Its Music. The followup to his memoir Lay It On The Line, Ten Telecaster Tales remakes the idea of the “concept album.” It is music that arrives inside a book. It's also, arguably, the most comprehensive attempt at liner notes in the history of electric instrumental fingerstyle guitar albums.  Emmett delves into the creative process — the roots, influences, philosophy, and spirituality involved in writing and recording and breaks down the ten tracks included on his brand new album titled Ten Telecaster Tales.Purchase a copy of Ten Telecaster Tales: Liner Notes for a Guitar and Its Music Episode Playlist ----------BookedOnRock.com The Booked On Rock Store The Booked On Rock YouTube Channel Follow The Booked On Rock with Eric Senich:FACEBOOKINSTAGRAMTIKTOKX Find Your Nearest Independent Bookstore Contact The Booked On Rock Podcast: thebookedonrockpodcast@gmail.com The Booked On Rock Music: “Whoosh” by Crowander / “Last Train North” & “No Mercy” by TrackTribe

Los Angeles County District Attorney Nathan Hochman isn't buying the Menendez brothers' version of events. He's made it clear: they're not getting out of prison on his watch. Standing before the press, Hochman didn't mince words. The self-defense claim? A lie. The supposed rehabilitation? Not enough. His office is officially opposing resentencing for Lyle and Erik Menendez, who are serving life without parole for the 1989 murders of their parents, Jose and Kitty Menendez. Hochman's argument is simple: the brothers have spent the last 30 years weaving a story that doesn't hold up to scrutiny. They say they were terrified of their father, that years of sexual abuse led them to kill out of fear. But Hochman, after poring over trial transcripts, prison records, and testimony, says that's just not true. He points to the undeniable premeditation—how they drove to San Diego days before the murders to buy shotguns with a fake ID, how they planned an alibi by buying movie tickets, and how, after unloading their weapons into their parents, they shot them again in the kneecaps to stage a gang hit. They even picked up the shotgun shells and dumped their bloody clothes and weapons. None of that screams "panic." It screams "plan." When the police started digging, the brothers initially played innocent, pushing a theory that their parents were killed by the Mafia. That held up until Erik confessed to his therapist—an admission that eventually made its way into the hands of investigators. Only then did their story change. Suddenly, it was self-defense. And as Hochman laid out, they were willing to go to great lengths to sell it. At one point, Lyle allegedly tried to convince his girlfriend to lie under oath, saying Jose had drugged and raped her. The trial testimony evolved yet again, with claims that both brothers had suffered sexual abuse at the hands of their father, with their mother complicit. But Hochman says there's a problem with that story too: it wasn't mentioned in Erik's original confession. In those tapes, Erik reportedly said their father was a controlling force, that their mother couldn't live without him, and that both had to die. Self-defense never came up. Then there's the forensic evidence. The brothers claimed it was dark when they burst into the den, that their parents were standing or lunging at them. But crime scene experts determined that at all times, Jose and Kitty were seated or already wounded on the ground. Hochman says that's just one of 20 lies the brothers have told over the years. Four have been admitted to. Sixteen remain. And unless they acknowledge those, he says they don't deserve a second chance. Naturally, the Menendez family members who support the brothers are outraged. In a statement, they accused Hochman of "ignoring the reality" that Erik and Lyle were "repeatedly abused, feared for their lives, and have atoned for their actions." They argue that Hochman is sending a dangerous message—that male victims of childhood sexual abuse won't be believed. But Hochman is standing firm, and he's not alone. He invoked California Governor Gavin Newsom's 2022 decision to deny parole to Sirhan Sirhan, Robert F. Kennedy's assassin. Despite Sirhan's decades of rehabilitation, Newsom blocked his release because he failed to fully accept responsibility. Hochman says the same logic applies here. No full admission, no second chances. This stance is a complete reversal of former DA George Gascón's position. Before losing re-election to Hochman in December 2024, Gascón supported resentencing, arguing that because the brothers were under 26 at the time of the murders, they should be eligible for parole immediately. Hochman wasted no time undoing that. Still, the brothers aren't out of options. They have a pending habeas corpus petition citing two new pieces of evidence: a letter Erik wrote to a cousin months before the murders describing his father's alleged abuse and allegations from a former boy band member who claims Jose Menendez raped him. Hochman, unsurprisingly, has asked the court to throw it out, calling it unreliable and inadmissible. Their last hope? Clemency. The brothers have petitioned Governor Newsom, and in February, Newsom ordered a 90-day risk assessment to determine whether they pose "an unreasonable risk to the public" if released. It's the final door left open. Whether they walk through it or it slams shut is still up in the air. #MenendezBrothers #TrueCrime #DAHochman #Justice Want to listen to ALL of our podcasts AD-FREE?

It's part of Sonicbond Publishing's On Track series.In a career full of twists and turns, none was as sharp as the one David Bowie experienced after his 1983 album Let's Dance. The record gave Bowie the hit that he wanted but completely altered his artistic standing in the process. Instead of an innovator who pushed rock music forward, the singer found himself a global superstar with a mass audience whose tastes he didn't understand and who reciprocated this feeling as the 1980s unfolded. After immersing himself in the band project Tin Machine, Bowie spent the 1990s embracing reinvention and experimentation with mixed but often fascinating results, leading to a full-fledged renaissance early in the 21st century. From there, his story only got stranger; 2013's The Next Day was a triumphant comeback after years of self-imposed silence. Meanwhile, 2016's Blackstar stood among his most challenging albums and became the final release of his lifetime. One constant is that the records David Bowie released during this time were ultimately the result of his artistic vision, wherever it took him. This book considers all those releases on their own merits, away from the shadow of his 1970s landmarks. Even if Bowie himself didn't always appreciate the results, every album featured songs worthy of his reputation.Purchase a copy of David Bowie: 1983-2016 Every Album, Every Song in the UKPurchase a copy of David Bowie: 1983-2016 Every Album, Every Song in the USFollow Don Klees:Facebook Instagram Episode Playlist ---------- BookedOnRock.com The Booked On Rock Store The Booked On Rock YouTube Channel Follow The Booked On Rock with Eric Senich:FACEBOOKINSTAGRAMTIKTOKX Find Your Nearest Independent Bookstore Contact The Booked On Rock Podcast: thebookedonrockpodcast@gmail.com The Booked On Rock Music: “Whoosh” by Crowander / “Last Train North” & “No Mercy” by TrackTribe

Laurie Kaye is the last-ever reporter to interview John Lennon before his assassination. In fact, she was with John and Yoko just hours before his death. She's on the podcast to talk about that fateful day and her book Confessions of a Rock 'n' Roll Name-Dropper: My Life Leading up to John Lennon's Last Interview.Kaye is a writer and producer, and this book is her long-awaited memoir. In it, we read about Kaye's music-related early life wrapped around that day in December 1980 which Kaye spent with John Lennon and Yoko Ono at the legendary Dakota apartment building on Manhattan's Upper West Side. On December 8, 1980, while working for RKO Radio, Kaye, a then twenty-something rock journalist, co-conducted an interview with her longtime idol, John Lennon. It was to become Lennon's final interview on what tragically turned out to be his last day on the planet. That evening, John Lennon was gunned down by a man Kaye had encountered just hours before.Purchase a copy of Confessions of a Rock 'n' Roll Name-Dropper: My Life Leading up to John Lennon's Last Interview Visit the Confessions of a Rock 'n' Roll Name-Dropper website ---------- BookedOnRock.com The Booked On Rock Store The Booked On Rock YouTube Channel Follow The Booked On Rock with Eric Senich:FACEBOOKINSTAGRAMTIKTOKX Find Your Nearest Independent Bookstore Contact The Booked On Rock Podcast: thebookedonrockpodcast@gmail.com The Booked On Rock Music: “Whoosh” by Crowander / “Last Train North” & “No Mercy” by TrackTribe

What are the unspoken (or very explicitly stated) rules that govern your home? In this episode, we dive into the house rules that shape daily life—from the universally accepted “no shoes inside” policy to more unique ones like keeping a “gunny sack” for misplaced items. We share listener-submitted rules, childhood house rules that have stuck (or been abandoned), and whether Megan should keep responding on the phone with “This is she.”Tune in for a relatable conversation on boundaries, manners, and the tiny laws that keep homes running smoothly. Do you enforce screen-free weekdays? Require “one polite bite” at dinner? Let's talk house rules!
