Coode Street picks up our recent conversation about short fiction with James Patrick Kelly and Michael Swanwick with Cadwell Turnbull, whose excellent short fiction collection All the Hidden Places is one of the highlights of the year and is out this month. As always, our conversation wanders a little, but we touch upon how he assembled the collection, his experiences in both Clarion and an MFA program, SF and fantasy writing from the Caribbean, formative influences such as Orwell and Le Guin, writing about AI, his own earlier Convergence Trilogy, and writing as part of a group with the Darkly Lem group. Our thanks to Cadwell for making time to take to us. We hope you enjoy the conversation!

This week, host Jorden Guth is joined by SoundStage! Ultra senior editor Jason Thorpe to talk about My Audiophile Neighborhood, his ongoing SoundStage! Global series chronicling what happens when he introduces friends and neighbors to better sound. But the conversation quickly becomes about something bigger: If we want hi-fi to thrive, how do we actually create new enthusiasts? Jorden and Jason discuss why good communication matters, why the hobby's obsession with constant upgrading can work against it, the realities of the generation gap, and why advocacy has to extend beyond preaching to people who are already converted. Most importantly, they explore why praxis—putting ideas into action—is every bit as important as theory when it comes to bringing new people into hi-fi. Sources: Jason's blog posts on SoundStage!

In this CPC Together podcast, Kevin, Brandon, and Nico reminisce about Sunday school songs before discussing Orwell's 1984 versus Huxley's Brave New World, contrasting control through restricted information with control through distraction and shaped desires. They explore how the mind as “directed attention” can create beauty through imagination yet also become bondage when lies (like being unlovable) embed themselves and distort loves, leading to sin and unhealthy substitutes such as pornography or AI companionship. The conversation emphasizes that information alone doesn't form people; discipleship involves replacing lies with truth through practices like fasting, scripture intake and memorization, prayer, music, and embodied habits such as generosity. Using metaphors like biking focus, neural pathways as forest trails, and abiding in the vine (John 15), they connect spiritual formation to ordinary life—budgeting, rest, and bedtime—inviting God into everything.

Je suis particulièrement ravi d'ouvrir ce numéro avec un groupe "coup de cœur" (dès leur 1er album "One Step Closer" en 2023) : PLEDGE OF HEALING. Ravi et honoré de l'exclusivité car le duo formé par Claire et Cyril, revient avec un single qui sort seulement demain (25 septembre) sur toutes les plateformes (avec en plus une superbe vidéo). Ce titre : "Paradox" est un 1er extrait de l'album à venir dans quelques mois et que j'ai également eu l'honneur d'écouter cette semaine. Et je peux déjà  vous dire qu'il n'est pas tombé dans l'oreille d'un sourd ! Dès la 1ère écoute, l'émotion est là mais comme tout bon album prog il se doit d'être dégusté et écouté à plusieurs reprises pour en révéler toutes ses saveurs ! Le duo orléanais post-prog se positionne entre trip hop, electro et métal. J'y ai en effet retrouvé des sensations agréables telles que j'entends chez Mostly Autumn, Archive voire Tears For Fears (mais au féminin !) Pour en savoir plus sur le nom de ce 2ème album dont soit dit en passant la production et particulièrement soignée, sa date de sortie et les précommandes (recommandé!!) , rendez-vous sur le site du groupe début octobre. Merci à Claire et Cyril pour ce "Paradoxe" en avant-première, juste pour vous auditeur.ices de SUN !  Mais on n'a de toute façon pas fini de reparler de l'album que j'ai hâte de vous faire découvrir dans quelques temps et sans lire dans les astres, je prédis à ce futur opus un excellent accueil. Le duo a énormément travaillé pour en arriver là, et ça s'entend…  Soyez à l'affut !  L'industrie du disque est cynique. Si les artistes aujourd'hui ont plus facilement la possibilité de s'auto-produire, le plus dur est d'émerger de la jungle alors que dans les années 80, il fallait mieux signer chez une "major" si on caressait l'espoir d'être diffusé. Il fallait aussi parfois accepter quelques concessions. En 1981, l'album "The Wall" sorti deux ans avant est encore dans toutes les têtes, et son adaptation cinématographique d'Alan Parker est sur le point de sortir. Alors quand le batteur du groupe, NICK MASON,  veut prendre sa casquette de producteur (comme il l'a d'ailleurs déjà fait avec succès notamment pour "Rock Bottom" de l'ex Soft Machine Robert Wyatt), pour la musicienne de jazz américaine Carla Bley (décédée il y 3 ans), les requins du business n'acceptent de sortir le disque que sous le nom de Nick Mason. Bon, Carla Bley, autrice et compositrice de l'album profitera effectivement des retombées commerciales des ventes boostées par l'étiquette "Nick Mason de Pink Foyd", il faut parfois ravaler son amour-propre dans ce milieu impitoyable. C'est donc bien en réalité un album de Carla Bley produit par Mason mais sous son nom "Nick Mason's Fictious Sports" dont il s'agit avec, cerise sur la gâteau, un chant assuré par le fameux Robert Wyatt produit en son temps par le même Mason (mais Wyatt avait alors assez de notoriété pour le sortir sous son nom). Extrait de cet album, véritable bijou (et c'est bien là l'essentiel ! ) à (re)découvrir …. A la rentrée 2025 je rendais hommage à Rick Davies, fondateur de Supertramp. Un an déjà… Mais il y avait aussi une autre personnalité impliquée dans la création de ce groupe : ROGER HODGSON recruté par petite annonce et qui deviendra le "faiseur de tubes" de la formation, celui dont le grand public a retenu les chansons et la voix, jusqu'à son départ début des années 80 pour entamer une carrière solo ponctuée seulement de trois albums studio jusqu'à ce jour. Faut dire que le musicien s'était cassé les deux  poignets en bricolant chez lui après "Haï Haï" en 1987 et qu'ensuite il lui faudra tout le soutien de ses proches pour se remettre en selle. Quelques concerts fin des 90's puis une rencontre miraculeuse a lieu avec l'auteur compositeur nantais Alan Simon qui lui demande d'interpréter le Roi Arthur dans son projet de Rock Opéra "Excalibur" qui sort en 1998 aux côtés de musiciens de haut vol (tels que les Fairport Convention, Angelo Branduardi, Tri Yann, Malicorne ou encore Dan Ar Braz et j'en passe), avec une narration de "Merlin" incarnée  par Jean Reno ! Roger et Alan n'en resteront pas là puisque l'ex-Supertramp, outre sa participation aux représentations live de ce premier volet d'une longue saga en devenir, va s'installer chez le musicien nantais (à l'époque dans la région de Clisson au sud de Nantes) pendant deux ans au cours desquels ils vont façonner ensemble (Roger auteur-compositeur interprète et Alan en qualité de producteur) , le tant attendu et inespéré 3ème album studio de Hodgson : "Open The Door",  une vraie petite bombe à la croisée du prog, de la pop et de la world music. A mon humble avis le meilleur de l'ex-Supertramp. Depuis lors  (2000), malgré une période de forte activité scénique, aucun autre album original à signaler. L'artiste est rare, alors savourons un extrait de ce véritable chef d'œuvre  !  A ma connaissance, il s'agit d'un 1er album solo pour PAT WYREMBSKY , que vous connaissez peut-être sans le savoir si vous avez écouté le groupe Orion dont il fût membre fondateur en 1975 avant de participer par ailleurs à d'autres projets. Ce talentueux multi instrumentiste nous propose une œuvre ambitieuse ayant pour titre "Orwelllia Opera" comme "Orwell" et "IA" donc, et en effet, le propos de cet album tourne autour de l'essor de l'intelligence artificielle et de la surveillance de masse décrite par Georges Orwell dans "1984" . Ajoutez les problèmes écologiques et climatiques flagrants (et encore la version digitale de l'album était publiée avant cet été catastrophique). Un album fort et direct (mais avec des respirations je vous rassure !) dont la version CD vient de paraître et que je vous recommande chaleureusement pour exorciser tout ce gloubi-boulga !!  Plan social chez KING CRIMSON en 1973 ! En effet Robert Fripp s'entoure de nouveaux membres avec l'album "Lark's Tongue In Aspic"  : le regretté John Wetton tout juste libéré de chez "Family", David Cross, Bill Bruford, rassasié de "Yes" et Jamie Muir. Evidemment cela change le son du groupe, dont il reste malgré tout encore des saveurs d'avant-garde. Un extrait dans cette émission et une pensée pour Mr Fripp qui nous a fait une petite frayeur il y a quelques mois, victime d'une attaque cardiaque en début d'été alors qu'il allait jouer en Italie. Il se remet tranquillement,  80 printemps tout de même pour la "papa" du rock progressif !  L'Italie a un rapport particulier avec ce genre musical qui nous occupe chaque semaine. En effet nombre de groupe éphémères dans les années 70 y ont recueilli le succès d'un album ou deux avant de disparaitre pour revenir occuper la scène en se reformant au XXIème siècle. Pas tous évidemment, mais il y en a quand même pas mal, je m'en suis rendu compte en papotant et en lisant la littérature spécialisée de Louis De Ny que j'avais eu la chance de recevoir dans l'émission il y a un peu plus deux ans maintenant. Tel est donc le cas de MAXOPHONE, avec un unique album éponyme paru en 1975, devenu référence dans le rock progressif italien mais qui, outre une version anglophone de l'album, restera unique, le groupe ne faisant plus parler de lui avant de revenir sur scène, mais pas en studio, au début des années 2000. Dommage car il y avait là un énorme potentiel mais cela dit, on ne pourra jamais leur reprocher d'avoir fait l'album de trop !        Direction le Canada avec l'un de ses groupes mythiques, j'ai nommé RUSH !  L'opposé de Maxophone, puisque ici, pléthore d'albums durant plusieurs décennies jusqu'à la disparition du batteur de la formation en 2020. Neil Peart en ayant été par ailleurs auteur et compositeur quasi unique, le sort du duo restant était semble-t-il scellé jusqu'à ce qu'il décident de rendre hommage à leur regretté camarade en repartant en tournée. C'est l'allemande Anika Nilles qui a décroché le poste prestigieux derrière les fûts et les retours semblent plutôt élogieux pour la jeune femme qui doit faire face à une sacrée pression (bon l'Allemagne, les fûts, la pression, vous me voyez venir !!!, je sais c'est cliché… ) D'ailleurs la tournée internationale de Rush passera aussi en France (pour une fois on a de la chance ! ), mais attention une seule date, ce sera à Paris le 19 février 2027 à la Plénitude Arena, si Céline a fini de vider sa loge ! En attendant je vous propose un extrait de "Roll The Bones" paru en 1991. Groupe éphémère des années 70, mais à la différence de leurs collègues italiens, ils auront eu le temps de commettre plusieurs albums : GRAVY TRAIN. Enfin seulement 4 galettes sorties de cuisines et je vous propose le service ultime de 1974 "Staircase To The Day", enregistré dans les fameux (et fumeux!) studios du Manor, là ou à cette période la propriété acquise par Richard Branson venait d'avoir été le terreau de création notamment pour un certain Mike Oldfield,  Kevin Ayers, Gong, ou encore pour notre Magma national  !     Plus au nord et plus contemporain, les suédois de SULPHUROUS SEA, nouvelle formation crée en 2024, très active car en magasin déjà trois albums et un single ! Pour amateurs de rock progressif instrumental, atmosphérique et cinématique, le tout d'inspiration du début des 70's. Comme quoi, c'est dans les vieux pots… Extrait de leur dernier album "Flake Of A Memory" sorti l'année dernière.      Justement je n'en ai pas fini avec les seventies et quelle formation  ! Trois musiciens audacieux d'une incroyable dextérité, les célèbres EMERSON, LAKE & PALMER avec ici un extrait du mythique "Brain Salad Surgery" de 1973, leur 4ème opus mais le 1er sur leur propre label "Manticore", générateur d'une énorme tournée pour le groupe au faîte de sa gloire !  Un incontournable du rock progressif de cette période !  L'émission aura été un série d'alternances entre les "pointures" du genre et les artistes émergents avec en clôture une toute nouvelle formation anglaise nommée LIMINAL SKY et dont les membres proviennent en partie du groupe Messenger. Un  album inaugural intitulé "All Tomorrow's Dakness". Un titre somme toute représentatif de l'ambiance mélancolique de ce post rock à la beauté sombre et désolée, à l'instar de son visuel. Oui dit comme ça, on croirait un disque pour déprimé ! Mais pas du tout, c'est tellement beau ! Et puis, on n'est pas dans le grand carnaval de Patrick Sébastien !  Allez je vous en offre un extrait (de l'album, pas de Patrick Sébastien !!) AMAROK, chaque jeudi, à 20h  

En Diez Capital Radio, Hugo Luengo impulsa un espacio orientado a la reflexión y al pensamiento crítico, articulado desde una perspectiva analítica y rigurosa, deliberadamente alejada de las simplificaciones habituales. Hugo Luengo arranca con una idea crítica: el relato de los medios nos aprisiona y nos convierte en ciudadanos desconfiados que no comparten el engaño que sostiene al Estado. Para alejarse de eso, se va a 5 historias clásicas de la tradición inglesa, que según él son herederas de la primera democracia liberal - la que nace con la Revolución de Cromwell (1642-51) y la Gloriosa (1688-89) y que da origen a Gran Bretaña. Esas 5 historias son el retrato de las virtudes burguesas del homo britannicus que superó el absolutismo un siglo antes que el resto: 1. Robinson Crusoe (1719) de Daniel Defoe: El emprendedor. Arrojado a una isla, reconstruye la sociedad que lo expulsó. Industrioso, práctico, sacrificado y moral. Es el mito que vemos en Cervantes, James Joyce, Marx, Coetzee, y en el cine con El marciano o El náufrago. Luengo lo define como Emprendedor. 2. Los viajes de Gulliver (1726) de Jonathan Swift: 300 años de esta obra. Respuesta ácida a Robinson. Historia de gigante entre minúsculos y minúsculo entre gigantes. Moralista contra la estupidez y la mezquindad humana. Su famosa frase: "las leyes son como las telarañas, atrapan a las moscas pequeñas y dejan escapar a las grandes". Está en el deseo de libertad de Orwell o Toole, en Star Trek, y Luengo lo ve hasta en un anuncio del Mundial 2026 con Cucurella arrastrando por el Támesis una nave con los 'enanos' de su selección. Crítico. 3. Alicia en el país de las maravillas (1865) de Lewis Carroll: Cae por un pozo a un mundo de humanos y criaturas antropomórficas. Relato fantástico de absurdos y paradojas, crítica de la sociedad victoriana. Como Gulliver, Alicia crece y se encoge. Impacto brutal en cultura, música, TV, ópera y religión. Anticipó el surrealismo. Soñador. 4. La Isla del Tesoro (1883) de Robert Louis Stevenson: Viaje y aventura en el Pacífico descubierto por Cook. Tono crítico sobre la ambición y la riqueza que busca el joven Jim Hawkins. Al final, valora el riesgo personal como motor de la vida. Sin aventura, la sociedad se vuelve funcionarial. Elogio de la piratería siempre actual. Aventurero. 5. Atrapados en el hielo de Ernest Shackleton (1914-1916): La épica del fracaso. En plena I Guerra Mundial, parte de Grytviken el 5 de diciembre de 1914 en el Endurance y regresa el 20 de mayo de 1916 tras hundirse el barco en Weddell en noviembre de 1915. El viaje se convierte en salvación: sobreviven los 28. Su modelo de gestión del fracaso se enseña hoy en las Business Schools del mundo. Héroe homérico que actúa por principio de reconocimiento y no de culpa. Gestor del fracaso. Conclusión para tu programa: Luengo cierra diciendo: Así queda retratado el homo britannicus: emprendedor, crítico, soñador, aventurero y gestor del fracaso. Y con Alicia se une a ese lema: "soñar para ser libre".

"Todos los animales son iguales", proclamaba Napoleón, el cerdo protagonista de "Rebelión en la Granja", la novela de Orwell. Napoleón, en cuanto se hizo con el poder añadió la coletilla "pero algunos animales son más iguales que otros". Los ciudadanos periodistas lanzan continuamente el mensaje de que todos los clubs son perjudicados en igual medida por los arbitrajes, que en este aspecto las desgracias les pasan a todos, que todos son iguales. El problema es que los fríos datos nos dicen que algunos son más iguales que otros.

After Ole Miss defeats LSU, quarterback Trinidad Chamblisscredits prayer, preparation, and God's will for the victory. Rabbi Dave has heard enough. If God chose the winner, what does that say about the losing team? Why does God receive public credit after victories but rarely appear in the losing locker room?That postgame interview launches Rabbi Dave and Friar Rodinto a larger argument about the way human beings claim divine authority for their own ambitions. From football fields to European battlefields, victors have always been tempted to declare that God stood with them. Faith in God's will is one thing. Claiming to know that a touchdown, election, or warexpresses that will is something far more dangerous.The conversation then turns to another modern article offaith: the approaching artificial-intelligence apocalypse. Bernie Sanders calls AI more dangerous than nuclear weapons, while frightened students avoid learning the technology that will shape their careers. Dave and Rod consider whether the panic is justified, whether regulation will protect the public or merely entrench the largest technology companies, and why anyone who genuinely fears AI should first learn how it works.Finally, Britain proposes state-directed “pre-bunking” programs, approved news sources, and official databases of supposedly false narratives. Who decides what counts as misinformation, disinformation, malinformation, or merely dissent? Once government claims the authority to determine truth in advance, Orwell's Ministry of Truth stops looking likesatire.It is a conversation about faith, fear, power, football, andthe persistent human desire to place God's signature on our own conclusions.Along the way there is Caribbean cricket, Lane Kiffin, artificial ludicrous intelligence, Monty Python, and the forgotten birthday that arrived twelve days early.#WhatTheFrock #GodsWill #FaithAndSports#ArtificialIntelligence #FreeSpeech #Misinformation #RabbiDave #FriarRod

Interview with Robert Kindey of The Numbers Bands 15-60-75. Robert return to the show for the 3rd time. In this episode we talk about the Number bands during the era of Hot Wire, and about the Late Great David Thomas of Pere Ubu !   Info for Sep 19th &20th concert and film showing   /https://www.numbersband.com/ /https://kentstage.org/     What's all about ( From Numbers band's website ) 15 60 75 The Numbers has been praised by almost every national music publication and several international publications since the beginning of their 50 years of live performances and recordings. The music "cannot be categorized", "cannot be defined", "is too original".  The music industry is not about music anymore. It is about selling products the public can relate to. After all, it is a business. Even "alternative" music has become a label. The founder of the band, Robert Kidney, explains, "The music industry, the media, and the tellsusourvision (TV) are defining for the American public what is good music by only playing and supporting what is profitable. We are taught to disregard everything that is not familiar. We (The Numbers Band) give the people our best. Our effort goes into being creative, unique and original. We define our own sound. There are no rules because we don't play the game. We are not in it for the game, we're in it for the music." So, the band continues to create and evolve outside of the "Rock & Roll" establishment. The majority of the recordings were financed by friends who loved the music enough to put up their own money. Hundreds of photographs taken of the band in different stages of it's existence by different amazing people tell a story of intense performances, long nights, and the passing of time. Band members have come and gone, and returned again. Robert sees music as much more than an emotional release or a performance. It is a job, a job for which he demands respect and payment for services. Robert Kidney picked up a guitar and began teaching himself to play when he 16. He bought a 45 record called Guitar Boogie Shuffle and his cousin, Larren Hesson, taught Robert the licks. He also taught him to play one of his favorite songs, Riders On The Storm. At 17, Robert played solo in coffee houses and also opened for several acts at La Cave in Cleveland such as Linda Rhonstadt and the Stone Ponys and Janis Ian. He never found the time to learn to read music. After a short stint in the service in Chicago, he moved back to northeast Ohio in the spring of 1969. A friend, Gary Hawk, had formed a band called Pig Iron in Wadsworth, Ohio. Robert opened for them at the Akron Art Museum and several band members asked him to come to a rehersal sometime. When Robert did show up, Gary had left the group, and the remaining members wanted him to be their front man. Robert changed the name of the band to 15 60 75. The title of the band has always aroused curiosity from fans. The fans called them The Numbers because it was easier than trying to get the figures right. Numbers had not been used in a name before, and the political climate in 1970 was quite Orwell-ian. Robert choose a sequence of numbers mentioned in a book written by Paul Oliver called The Blues Fell This Morning. In the chapter "The Jinx Is On Me", Oliver describes the Numbers Racket popular in Harlem in the 1950s and how dreams were analyzed as number sequences and used for placing bets. The band's music theory specialist, Terry Hynde, also discovered that 15 divided 15 is 1, 60 divided by 15 is 4, and 75 divided by 15 is 5. In a musician's world, "1, 4, 5," is referred to as the "universal progression". The band resides in northeast Ohio. They have several recordings under their belt and more music than they can afford to release. Robert has recorded and toured with Anton Fier and his Golden Palominos. Robert and his brother, Jack, have toured Holland twice. The brothers also traveled to London, England in 1998 to perform in the Disastodrome! production by David Thomas. The entire band went to London to perform at the Royal Festival Hall in 2000. For more information on the production, and The Kidney Brothers, go to The Brothers And The Blues Abstract. This band has an incredibly interesting history.

Mrs. Orwell will be at the Brooklyn Book Festival on Sunday, September 27 at 12pm ET. Details here and in the show notes. I would love to meet Gaslit Nation listeners! So if you can, come by and say hi. In the meantime, above is the April 13 book launch of Mrs. Orwell at PowerHouse Arena. Thank you to the listeners who came out–it was a joy to see you!  There would have been no George Orwell without Eileen O'Shaughnessy Blair. She saved her husband's life twice, including while they fought fascists on their honeymoon in the Spanish Civil War. Eileen was more Orwell than Orwell. While Eric Blair served in the Indian Imperial Police in Burma, she studied literature under J.R.R. Tolkien and became one of Oxford's earliest women graduates. She trained in child psychology and shaped Animal Farm–a children's book. Her descendants credit her great influence on that now classic novel. Their friends even noticed that Eric's writing transformed after meeting Eileen. Mrs. Orwell, illustrated by Brahm Revel and born from my film Mr. Jones, which features Orwell's Animal Farm, restores Eileen to her proper place of literary greatness. Her courage inspired me since I discovered her in Orwell's preface to the Ukrainian edition of Animal Farm, which my mother's family carried from a World War II refugee camp to New York City.  Eileen's close friend Lettice Cooper said Eileen and Eric "live by a burning morality." Mrs. Orwell reminds us truth-telling takes a team.

NIGEL'S IN THE MONEY! RAYNER'S THROWING HER TOYS OUT OF THE PRAM! #NigelFarage #AngelaRayner #ReformUK #GeorgeOrwell #1984 #LordAlli #JonGaunt #JonGauntTV  NIGEL'S IN THE MONEY! RAYNER'S THROWING HER TOYS OUT OF THE PRAM! KERCHING! Nigel Farage and Reform UK have received a staggering £72 MILLION from two British British British businessmen—and Angela Rayner and the Labour Westminster establishment are having a complete MELTDOWN! Two enormous £36 million donations mean Reform finally has the financial firepower to take on Labour, the Tories and the entire cosy political establishment. And they absolutely HATE it!  Reform says the donations were made legally under the rules. But Rayner is now suggesting that proposed legislation could operate retrospectively and potentially force some of that money to be returned. RETROSPECTIVELY! In about it: Reform accepts donations under the rules that exist today—then the Government introduces new rules and reaches backwards to claw the money back. This is straight out of George Orwell's Nineteen Eighty-Four: "Who controls the past controls the future: who controls the present controls the past." Orwell also wrote: "Nothing was illegal, since there were no longer any laws.  Nobody is claiming that these donors committed a criminal offence. But retrospective punishment—changing the financial consequences after the event—is a dangerous road for any democracy to travel down.  If Labour can't beat Nigel Farage at the ballot box, is it now trying to cripple Reform financially instead? And spare me the sanctimonious lectures about wealthy donors and political influence. This is the same Labour Party that became embroiled in rows over free clothes, luxury accommodation and Lord Alli. Apparently, rich donors are perfectly acceptable when they're bankrolling Labour—but when British businessmen put their money behind Reform, it suddenly becomes a "threat to democracy"! What a load of hypocritical cobblers! Join me, Jon Gaunt, LIVE at 6 PM, as I tear into Rayner's tantrum and ask the question Labour doesn't want answered: IS THIS ABOUT PROTECTING DEMOCRACY—OR PROTECTING LABOUR FROM NIGEL FARAGE? Should political donations be capped in future? Should Reform keep every penny? And should any British government be allowed to change the rules retrospectively because it doesn't like the political consequences? I want YOUR views—LIVE, LOUD and completely uncensored!

Interview with saxophonist of The Numbers Bands 15-60-75 Terry Hynde.   Info for Sep 19th &20th concert and film showing   /https://www.numbersband.com/ /https://kentstage.org/     What's all about ( From Numbers band's website ) 15 60 75 The Numbers has been praised by almost every national music publication and several international publications since the beginning of their 50 years of live performances and recordings. The music "cannot be categorized", "cannot be defined", "is too original".  The music industry is not about music anymore. It is about selling products the public can relate to. After all, it is a business. Even "alternative" music has become a label. The founder of the band, Robert Kidney, explains, "The music industry, the media, and the tellsusourvision (TV) are defining for the American public what is good music by only playing and supporting what is profitable. We are taught to disregard everything that is not familiar. We (The Numbers Band) give the people our best. Our effort goes into being creative, unique and original. We define our own sound. There are no rules because we don't play the game. We are not in it for the game, we're in it for the music." So, the band continues to create and evolve outside of the "Rock & Roll" establishment. The majority of the recordings were financed by friends who loved the music enough to put up their own money. Hundreds of photographs taken of the band in different stages of it's existence by different amazing people tell a story of intense performances, long nights, and the passing of time. Band members have come and gone, and returned again. Robert sees music as much more than an emotional release or a performance. It is a job, a job for which he demands respect and payment for services. Robert Kidney picked up a guitar and began teaching himself to play when he 16. He bought a 45 record called Guitar Boogie Shuffle and his cousin, Larren Hesson, taught Robert the licks. He also taught him to play one of his favorite songs, Riders On The Storm. At 17, Robert played solo in coffee houses and also opened for several acts at La Cave in Cleveland such as Linda Rhonstadt and the Stone Ponys and Janis Ian. He never found the time to learn to read music. After a short stint in the service in Chicago, he moved back to northeast Ohio in the spring of 1969. A friend, Gary Hawk, had formed a band called Pig Iron in Wadsworth, Ohio. Robert opened for them at the Akron Art Museum and several band members asked him to come to a rehersal sometime. When Robert did show up, Gary had left the group, and the remaining members wanted him to be their front man. Robert changed the name of the band to 15 60 75. The title of the band has always aroused curiosity from fans. The fans called them The Numbers because it was easier than trying to get the figures right. Numbers had not been used in a name before, and the political climate in 1970 was quite Orwell-ian. Robert choose a sequence of numbers mentioned in a book written by Paul Oliver called The Blues Fell This Morning. In the chapter "The Jinx Is On Me", Oliver describes the Numbers Racket popular in Harlem in the 1950s and how dreams were analyzed as number sequences and used for placing bets. The band's music theory specialist, Terry Hynde, also discovered that 15 divided 15 is 1, 60 divided by 15 is 4, and 75 divided by 15 is 5. In a musician's world, "1, 4, 5," is referred to as the "universal progression". The band resides in northeast Ohio. They have several recordings under their belt and more music than they can afford to release. Robert has recorded and toured with Anton Fier and his Golden Palominos. Robert and his brother, Jack, have toured Holland twice. The brothers also traveled to London, England in 1998 to perform in the Disastodrome! production by David Thomas. The entire band went to London to perform at the Royal Festival Hall in 2000. For more information on the production, and The Kidney Brothers, go to The Brothers And The Blues Abstract.

On Monday's Mark Levin Show, we bring the best of on Labor Day. A counter push has started against Luddites who want to prevent industrial and technological progress by banning data centers. Yes, there are legitimate concerns and there will be some little inconveniences, but a flat ban would set America back decades while the enemy moves forward. Also, the Supreme Court, by a 5-4 majority, told a lower court to back off trying to stop President Trump's new White House ballroom. The majority said the plaintiff didn't have standing to sue. Chief Justice John Roberts joined the minority - if it were up to him, he would destroy separation of powers. How does it affect Congress' powers if the President raises private funds for the White House? Then, imams of a Shia Muslim mosque in Dearborn, Michigan pledged its allegiance to the Islamic regime in Iran, calling the U.S. a nation of "devil-worshipers." Most of these mosques in Dearborn are raising future Islamists. The indoctrination of young kids is a poison that spreads into the wider culture. Why do these radical Islamist imams use the language of class warfare and violence? Ali Khamenei told them to use Marxist language and propaganda in the West. Marxism is attractive to Western liberals. Meanwhile, national conservatism is a form of older paleo conservatism and such isms are not new - like Theodore Roosevelt's progressive nationalism and Huey Long who rebranded fascism as anti-fascism. This echoes Orwell's remark that every government, even communist ones, claims to be a democracy. Words have meanings that politicians often confuse and contort, and conservatives and Republicans should not abandon one of the greatest periods of conservatism and Republicanism in the 80's, just as they should not abandon Trump. Later, certain infrastructure, including Kharg island, must be taken out and the Iranian people armed. Even if the regime's leaders lack money, they remain like World War II Japanese kamikazes: religious zealots who treated the Emperor as God on earth, prayed, fought, and lived for him—the product of nationalism. The Iranian regime will not surrender for its people's good or because its military is defeated, and any document or negotiation it signs is merely an ends-justifies-the-means tactic. The regime must therefore be obliterated and eliminated. The only real way to overthrow it is from within; the President has created the conditions for that, but unless further steps are taken the concern remains that collapse could simply produce another such regime. Afterward, the media portrayed Columbia student Mohsen Mahdawi, as a peaceful “boy scout” exercising free speech and advocating for Palestinian rights, but a 100-page investigation documents a previously unseen record of support for terrorists, terrorist organizations, and armed violence. The report unearths statements in which Mahdawi promised to “annihilate the Jews,” praised Hamas, honored dead terrorists, and bragged that Palestinians have the capacity and conviction to resist, kill, and wound; similar violence-tinged postings continued as recently as 2024 while he was on U.S. soil.

A Friday hang that took a turn. Tomer Strolight, Suze, Swan Private's Alec and Matt, then Brandon Quittem and Dirty Coin director Alana. The surprise came from the audience: an anonymous 40-year IMF and central-bank veteran, @UnseenFinance.Brady opened on a viral Instagram video, described on air and unverified at air time: Meta AI's suggested questions on a mother's post surfaced her child's name, her location and a deleted photo. "Breadcrumbs for stalkers laid out nice and neat."Tomer called it the new reality and a double-edged sword: the panopticon that erodes privacy also finds a missing child after an Amber Alert. Every recorded word now has "perfect recall," which he called "a metaphysical change in how reality works."Brady's frame: decades of data on a public network, then phones with microphones and cameras, then AI to stitch it together. "Orwell was right. Maybe it didn't play out exactly the same way, but we all opted into it."Suze went further: worse than Orwell, who never predicted programmable money. Her point was aggregation, a phone number, an employer, a public record: "once data gets copied, leaked, sold and ends up on the dark web, it is impossible to claw back."⭐ The surprise guest: 40 years across the IMF, development banks and central banks, "what often Bitcoiners call the enemy." KYC scope creep brought him to Bitcoin: rules for big criminals now "attacking single mothers. How dare you brought in $300?"Alana argued most people don't value privacy. Her rule, from a Spanish saying: closed mouths, flies don't fly in. Her forecast: "it's going to get worse before it gets worse," then regulation arrives "for the safety of the children."⭐ Tomer pushed back on the doom: technology is unstoppable, so use it morally and defend yourself with it. Embracing coal led to gas and electricity; fearing nuclear for 70 to 80 years left the world with worse energy and worse governments.⭐⭐ Suze asked the ex-IMF guest whether institutions understand the surveillance they build. His answer: the people at the top are excellent and well-intentioned; the damage happens in the "telephone game" downward, ending with a bank clerk blocking a payment from fear.Suze quoted Carstens on CBDC control; the guest said central banks "100%" believe CBDCs expand access and reduce poverty. Brady disagreed: security, poverty and children are window dressing; the Patriot Act and KYC/AML show how narrow mandates become mass surveillance.Brady's hope story: Snowden broke his faith in government; Bitcoin and the cypherpunks restored it. His ask now: Bitcoiners should learn open-weight AI models the way they learned nodes and wallets, as personal defence against deep fakes and scrapers.⭐ Brandon brought Kevin Kelly's What Technology Wants: technology is an extension of evolution and every technology carries a bias. A CBDC wants control and reduced privacy; Bitcoin wants individual sovereignty. One panelist's summary: Promethean versus Faustian technology.Brandon raised Gladstein's structural-adjustment critique. From the inside, the guest said, "that's not true": governments come to the IMF, then blame it for the conditions while "the IMF sits back and takes that black eye." Brandon: bad outcomes, bad program.Tomer's reconciliation: there is no parallel universe to test the counterfactual, so fallible people with incentives argue over outcomes. Technology's biases compound objectively; human biases compound with incentives. He credited Erik Cason's "oath of the machines" from Cryptosovereignty.The guest closed on a "eulogy for Bitcoin" he published in January: too much price pumping and Wall Street, contrary to self-sovereignty. Tomer's counter: the players who exploited fiat are arriving, but "bailouts are still impossible in Bitcoin."Close: no show Monday, the finale is Tuesday, September 8, the last day of the half-price buy fee. Brady thanked the surprise guest: "it's fun when we do these spaces to get surprises like that from the audience."

Finally, Stacy Garrity calls in to discuss her run for Governor in Pennsylvania against Josh Shapiro. Shapiro appears to view himself as a lock for governor, but Garrity argues he has major weaknesses and is more focused on national ambitions than helping Pennsylvania families. Shapiro has never faced a serious opponent or a negative ad in over a decade, so voters still see him as a moderate when he is not. Learn more about your ad choices.

The episode closes with a powerful monologue on mass formation, or how ideology becomes identity, why challenges feel like personal attacks and the danger of living inside a protected narrative bubble instead of facing reality.

Kurt Andersen and Joanna Coles take a wild ride through the strange characters, political fantasies, and very plausible futures shaping America right now. Andersen sizes up Natalie Harp as a figure so bizarre she could have stepped out of Dickens, Orwell, or The Simpsons, before revisiting his new novel's startling vision of Donald Trump's death and an America fractured beyond recognition. They debate whether the country's divisions could really lead to disunion, why fiction may be better equipped than nonfiction to capture this political moment, and whether Jon Ossoff has emerged as the Democrat to watch. Then, the conversation takes an even stranger turn as Andersen reviews his former coke dealer RFK Jr.'s unlikely new food podcast and what it might reveal about life after Trump.

ACOFAE Podcast Presents: "Sugar Candy Mountain, Charlie." 2026 is the year that ACOFAE is covering the classics apparently, because they mentioned Animal Farm in the beginning of the year and here we all are now covering this Orwell classic. Published in 1945, and with the subtitle "a fairy story" in the UK, Animal Farm is a short book that covers the Russian Revolution of 1917 using a farm as the setting and animals as the characters for the most part. A story that begins with passion stirring for change, an opportunity, and then the slow decent into the same situation everyone started from, Animal Farm, is a story about how man corrupts. Which are the pigs and which are the humans? Impossible to tell. Horrifying. "Man is the enemy."

I have shocking news… literally. According to a DHS contract, the agency is purchasing $10-$20 million of the CTG-5 G.L.O.V.E.Glove is an anagram, standing for Generated Low Output Voltage Emitter. The requisition order describes it as a conductive distraction and de-escalation device. It will be issued to Homeland Security Investigations (H.S.I.) and Enforcement Removal Operations (ERO) officers and agents. The devices will be delivered by March 31 of next year. We don't know yet how many they're ordering, how much each pair of gloves cost, or when they will be implemented. These GLOVES are set to be acquired by ICE and are expected to help with their raids, apprehensions, and goal to capture 2,000 immigrants a day.

Pharmakeia — Show Notes: Fight Laugh Feast Documentary In this Fight Laugh Feast documentary, CrossPolitic traces a single Greek word — pharmakeia — from Homer's Odyssey through the book of Revelation to argue that the ancient world never separated medicine from sorcery, and that the modern West's attempt to draw that line may be its most consequential mistake. The film follows materialism's promise from the Big Bang to the therapy couch, tracks the ladder from prescription pharmaceuticals to ayahuasca retreats in Peru, and asks why the men who most loudly deny the existence of demons are increasingly found in dark rooms communing with named spirit entities.

Pharmakeia — Show Notes: Fight Laugh Feast Documentary In this Fight Laugh Feast documentary, CrossPolitic traces a single Greek word — pharmakeia — from Homer's Odyssey through the book of Revelation to argue that the ancient world never separated medicine from sorcery, and that the modern West's attempt to draw that line may be its most consequential mistake. The film follows materialism's promise from the Big Bang to the therapy couch, tracks the ladder from prescription pharmaceuticals to ayahuasca retreats in Peru, and asks why the men who most loudly deny the existence of demons are increasingly found in dark rooms communing with named spirit entities. Along the way it draws on C.S. Lewis, Aldous Huxley, Peter Hitchens, and the testimony of a man who sat in fifteen ayahuasca ceremonies — and what finally set him free.

DL makes the case he's been building for 20 years: Radiohead's Hail to the Thief is not just underrated — it's their best album.Released in 2003, Hail to the Thief arrived after Kid A and Amnesiac pushed Radiohead to abandon the guitar entirely. What happened when Jonny Greenwood picked it back up? He came back to the instrument with a completely new harmonic vocabulary — modal, ambiguous, non-resolving — and the result is the synthesis that makes this album extraordinary.DL breaks down what makes this 14-track, 46-minute record a perfect listen: the political fury of "2+2=5" (an Orwell reference recorded in two weeks at Hensall Studios LA), the unsettling harmonic stasis of "Myxomatosis," the warmth buried inside the Kid A-style production of "Backdrifts," and why Thom Yorke writing "Sail to the Moon" for his infant son while watching the Iraq War unfold is one of the most devastating things in Radiohead's catalog.Plus: the Nigel Godrich production approach, why the leak three weeks before release didn't matter, why critics were wrong about it being overstuffed, a full track-by-track ranking, and a 10/10 score.Part of Verse Chorus Verse's complete Radiohead album-by-album series.

Peter Stansky, Professor of History, Emeritus at Stanford University and author of The Socialist Patriot: George Orwell and War, explores the life and political evolution of George Orwell (born Eric Blair). Born in India in 1903 to a family in the "official classes," Orwell's early identity was shaped by the British Empire and his education at St Cyprian's and Eton. Stansky argues that Orwell's experiences during World War I fostered an intense patriotism, which he distinguished from nationalism as a love for one's country without the desire to impose its will on others. Orwell's career shifted from serving as an imperial police officer in Burma to living in poverty in London and Paris to understand class dynamics. A defining moment occurred during the Spanish Civil War, where he was wounded while fighting for the POUM. This experience transformed him into a convinced democratic socialist while simultaneously making him a fierce anti-communist after witnessing Soviet-backed betrayals. During World War II, Orwell worked for the BBC and wrote The Lion and the Unicorn, arguing that England must become socialist to win the war. His final years were marked by personal tragedy and failing health as he wrote his most famous works, Animal Farm and 1984. Stansky concludes that these masterpieces were not anti-socialist, but rather warnings about the corrupting nature of power and the betrayal of revolutionary ideals by leaders who prioritize maintaining control over the welfare of the people. (1)1940 GEORGE (ERIC BLAIR) ORWELL
