CONCRETESCHOOL.COON THIS EPISODE OF THE CONCRETE LOGIC PODCASTShould we really design concrete infrastructure for 75 to 100 years?In this episode, Seth is joined by Dr. Jon Belkowitz to question one of civil engineering's favorite ideas: the 100-year design life.Using Hoboken, New Jersey as the example, Seth and Jon talk about what happens when old infrastructure has to serve a city that no longer looks, moves, or functions the way it did when that infrastructure was built.The issue is not just whether the concrete lasts.The bigger question is whether the original decision still makes sense.Jon argues that the industry should stop designing only for age and start designing around use, performance, maintenance cycles, and accountability.Maybe a 20-year design life with zero maintenance is harder, and more honest, than a 100-year design life nobody is around to answer for.WHAT YOU'LL LEARN· Why Dr. Jon Belkowitz questions the 100-year design life· What Hoboken, New Jersey teaches us about old infrastructure· Why designing for time may not be the same as designing for use· The difference between design life and maintenance life· Why a 20-year, zero-maintenance target may be harder than a 100-year target· How infrastructure decisions made today can trap future generations· Why compressive strength is not enough to define concrete performance· How sensors, inspections, and data could change infrastructure maintenance· What pavement condition index means and why timing matters· Why Roman concrete is not always a fair comparison for modern infrastructure· Why Jon says we should design for decision cycles instead of ageCHAPTERS00:00 Introduction and support for the show 04:55 Rethinking 100-year design life 07:39 Why designing for time may be the wrong approach 09:57 Seth pushes back on whether we already design shorter than we admit 11:11 Hoboken as a case study 14:13 The 20-year, zero-maintenance idea 15:00 Performance, sensors, and maintenance systems 16:15 Pavement condition index and the cost of waiting 17:45 Why Roman concrete is not the right comparison 18:08 Bridge inspection and infrastructure careers 22:56 Building on top of old Hoboken infrastructure 26:14 Why predicting 100 years out is almost impossible 28:59 Final takeaways: design for decisions, not ageGUEST INFODr. Jon Belkowitz Intelligent ConcreteGuest link: https://www.concretelogicpodcast.com/guests/jon-belkowitz/CONCRETE LOGIC ACADEMYThe people who understand concrete are the people who get listened to.Not the loudest person in the meeting.Not the guy repeating what he heard ten years ago.Not the person blaming every problem on the latest material change.The person who understands the “why” behind the concrete usually has the most valuable voice in the room.That is what Concrete Logic Academy is built for.You get practical concrete education, PDH courses, and real-world lessons pulled from the same topics we cover on the Concrete Logic Podcast.Design life changes.

Send us a text and chime in!The City of Kingman advises motorists that pavement striping operations will take place on Hualapai Mountain Road on Friday, June 19, as part of the recently completed chip seal roadway improvements. Work is scheduled to begin at 7:00 a.m. and is expected to be completed by noon. The project involves the installation of permanent pavement markings along the roadway. While traffic will not be stopped or closed during the operation, motorists may encounter a slow-moving shadow vehicle and striping equipment traveling along the route for short periods of time.

This webinar presents the outcomes from a series of workshops with industry and users aimed at identifying future research needs and required changes to the Austroads Guide to Pavement Technology Part 4K: Selection and Design of Sprayed Seals. The aim of this projects was to continue refining the Austroads sprayed seal design method and its related guidance to better suit evolving traffic loads, pavement structures, and material technologies. The Austroads sprayed seal design method, widely used in Australia, provides guidance on materials, treatment selection, and methods for calculating binder application rates and aggregate spread rates. In New Zealand, the chipsealing design method is detailed in Chipsealing in New Zealand. Ongoing changes in traffic loadings, pavement structures and materials have prompted updates to the Guide that have been immediately implemented into a newly published version. To ensure the design methods remain reliable and that sprayed seals can perform under increased traffic volumes, updates were based on input from seal designers, transport agencies, consultants, and contractors as part of the workshops held in Australia and New Zealand. These changes, and the future research plan generated as part of this project will be described in this webinar.

This week we're talking Kelley Stoltz, who has been making amazing DIY pop out of San Francisco for over 25 years for such labels as Sub Pop, Third Man and John Dwyer's Castle Face. His latest is If You Don't Know Me, Buy Now! and is his first of possibly three albums out this year. In addition to his own music, Kelley also spent time as an auxiliary member of Echo & The Bunnymen and Robyn Hitchcock's band, and also produces other artists' albums (Sonny and The Sunsets, Thee Oh Sees). We talked about how his new album works could work as an entry point for the uninitiated, and how he thinks he's only truly found his own sound in the last decade. We also talked about his time living in New York City in the '90s where one of his jobs was sorting Jeff Buckley's fan mail, his path to home recording, the unique sounds of the Ebow, how he went from being a Echo & The Bunnymen superfan -- who had his own tribute band that include Pavement's Spiral Stairs -- to being an actual member of the Bunnymen, and how he ended up playing in Robyn Hitchcock's band. Plus: five records he thinks everyone should own and lots more.

Welcome to episode 299 of the Better with Running podcast, where hosts Chris Armstrong and Zac Newman are officially entering the "nervous 299s." The update segment provides a global look at the Run2PB community, which continues to expand rapidly. Athletes are delivering impressive results in events ranging from Cape Town to Thailand, and the team is particularly excited about a new race entry in Norway. Additionally, the hosts shared a crucial update regarding the "Sweat vs. Steam" event; with the date locked for November 15, the planning team is working hard to ensure this year's iteration offers an even larger, more vibrant carnival atmosphere for all participants. The episode also features a detailed race recap of the St. Anne's Winery XCR. Chris managed to navigate the 8km course in 31:36, noting that his improved confidence on the descents was a direct result of consistent strength training and the reliable grip of his ON cross-country spikes, which helped him avoid the pitfalls of previous years. Meanwhile, Zac finished with a time of 29:42, though he admitted it was a grueling effort to find any sort of rhythm on a course defined by relentless, undulating hills; he even poked fun at his decision to race in a pair of vintage Nike Zoom Streak 6s that may be nearing their tenth birthday. This week's main feature is an interview with Tom Marr, a dedicated Run2PB athlete who joined the team in 2022. Fresh off a career-best 31:51 performance at the Launceston 10, Tom reflects on his unconventional path to the sport, which began with a swimming background before shifting entirely to running. He also provides fascinating insight into his recent year-long experience living in a small coastal village in Scotland, where he was struck by the incredible depth and passion of the local club running scene. A central theme of Tom's interview is the value of accountability in training, particularly since he started working with coach Josh Harris. Tom highlights how this partnership has been a game-changer for his performance, noting that having a structured plan removes the mental load and allows him to focus entirely on the execution of each session. The episode concludes with a lively "Quick Qs" segment, where Tom shares some of his personal favorites and lessons learned along the way. Beyond his preference for long threshold sessions, he underscores the importance of patience, noting that he has learned the hard way that running injuries often require more time and care than those sustained in swimming.

Life hits hard. Pavement hits harder.On today's episode of The Rizzuto Show, Rizz suffers a catastrophic public wipeout outside the Wildwood post office after attempting the impossible: carrying multiple packages while existing over the age of 30. What starts as a simple errand instantly turns into a full public humiliation event featuring flying boxes, ripped jeans, one silent elderly witness, and the horrifying realization that falling in public no longer looks “funny” — it looks medically expensive. Honestly, this might be the most relatable thing this daily comedy show has ever discussed.Naturally, the crew immediately spirals into a deep conversation about aging, embarrassment recovery strategies, and the exact moment your body transitions from “athletic” to “fragile Home Depot lawn decoration.” Meanwhile, Rafe contributes his own emotional damage after stepping barefoot into dog poop TWICE in under 30 seconds. One mystery pile. One homemade disaster. Somehow bleach, Q-tips, and psychological trauma all become part of the story. This is what happens when a daily comedy show is powered entirely by caffeine, sarcasm, and questionable life choices.The chaos somehow escalates from there:Would you admit to clogging a gas station toilet during a road trip?If cartel money washes ashore… are you legally required to be honest?Is keeping accidental extra cash from a cashier technically stealing or just “winning?”Why do modern cars all look like Pixar characters with anxiety?And at what point does your neighborhood friend become a full HOA supervillain?Then the show pivots into celebrity chaos, nostalgia, and existential dread because apparently everyone realized June is already here and adulthood is basically one long speedrun toward knee pain and suspiciously loud joints. The crew debates Ozzy Osbourne AI avatars, Taylor Swift's viral kindness, Russell Crowe vs autograph seekers, and whether Barry Gibb secretly teaches funk magic at Hogwarts while moisturized somewhere in Miami. Completely normal topics for functioning adults.Also:Burt Reynolds chest hair appreciation becomes weirdly emotionalRoxette triggers an accidental 80s nostalgia spiralYellowstone spin-offs continue multiplying like raccoons behind a dumpsterTV's most shocking character deaths reopen old emotional woundsSomebody incorrectly declares Barry Gibb dead and immediately gets corrected by the roomAnd because society apparently enjoys suffering, the crew tackles the modern horror known as tipping culture. Why are frozen yogurt machines asking for 25% tips when YOU did literally everything except plug the machine into the wall? Is a $9 tip on a $600 steak dinner grounds for prison? Why do Costco employees reject tips like undercover federal agents? Nobody knows anymore. America feels tired.Chris Kerber joins the show to absolutely torch WalletHub's “Best Hockey Cities” rankings, the gang debates NHL expansion rumors, and hockey nicknames somehow sound like rejected mobster aliases from a low-budget casino movie.The episode also takes a heartfelt moment to honor listener Danielle following her tragic passing after injuries sustained during PointFest. The show sends love to her fiancé Jason, family, and friends during an incredibly difficult time.This episode has everything:public humiliation, celebrity gossip, hockey rage, AI weirdness, dog poop trauma, tipping arguments, nostalgic movie debates, existential panic, and middle-aged chaos wrapped into one beautiful disaster of a daily comedy show.If you enjoy sarcastic humor, weird news, celebrity fails, comedy podcast chaos, and hearing grown adults argue passionately about frozen yogurt economics and cartel ethics… welcome home.Follow The Rizzuto Show → https://linktr.ee/rizzshow for more from your favorite daily comedy show.Connect with The Rizzuto Show Comedy Podcast online → https://1057thepoint.com/RizzShowHear The Rizz Show daily on the radio at 105.7 The Point | Hubbard Radio in St. Louis, MO.Blind North Chicago man sues Grayslake car dealership alleging they pulled ‘bait and switch' during new car purchaseFalkville votes to end 140-year alcohol ban by single voteNew AI pet translator claims it can understand dogs and catsSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Richard Langston in conversation with David Eastaugh https://feralhouse.com/the-clean/ https://www.amazon.co.uk/Clean-Dreamlife-Need-Rubber-Soul/ In 1978 in Dunedin , New Zealand, the Kilgour brothers, Hamish and David, and their schoolfriend Peter Gutteridge, got together to form a band called The Clean. When Robert Scott joined in 1980, the band found a combination that endured for nearly forty years. The Clean profoundly changed alternative music: hitting the New Zealand charts for months with a single made for 50 dollars, 'Tally Ho!'; helping establish Flying Nun and a music scene independent of the big labels; pioneering a low-fi, do-it-yourself approach to rock music; and touring internationally to influence bands like Pavement and Yo La Tengo. Raw and immediate, this is the story as told by members of The Clean and their inner circle - fellow musicians such as Chris Knox, Martin Phillipps, Graeme Downes and Ira Kaplan, friends and family, pub promoters and sound engineers, and their good friend, Richard Langston. From teenagers in a Dunedin practice room to New York City on 9/11 - this is the band's history as it unfolds.
Interview with singer songwriter, and artist Kelly Foley! Louder Than You Think: A Lo-Fi History of Gary Young & Pavement, the original motion picture soundtrack from the 2023 documentary film, has been confirmed for release via digital outlets, Special Edition CD and black and colored vinyl editions in early 2026 on Independent Project Records. The first single from the soundtrack, “Please Be Happy (For Us),” from Gary Young & Pavement is out today and is available here. Proudly resistant to genres and conventions, the Louder Than You Think soundtrack tells the story of Gary Young, a true original in life and behind the drum kit, who, when he was approaching the ripe old age of 40, joined twenty-somethings Stephen Malkmus and Scott Kannberg (Spiral Stairs) to become the original drummer, as well as producer, for soon-to-be indie royalty Pavement. More than just a soundtrack, the release features rare and never-before-heard tracks from the underappreciated Stockton music scene of the ‘80s and ‘90s, including bands like Fall of Christianity (the Stockton rebels that struck a chord with a teenage Spiral Stairs), CRLLL, The Authorities, Gary Young's Hospital, and Hot Spit Dancers. The album also includes tracks scored for the film from Edward W. Dahl (Jodorowsky's Dune) and Noah Georgeson (Joanna Newsom, Devendra Banhart, Cate Le Bon). “Louder Than You Think is the story of original Pavement drummer Gary Young,” said Pavement's Scott Kannberg. “This soundtrack captures the spirit and warped vision that could only come from Gary and the ‘underbelly of California,' Stockton!" Pavement themselves make memorable appearances throughout the record with ultra-rare live tracks, as well as something quite special: born as a ditty improvised by Gary during filming, “Please Be Happy (For Us)” turned into something rather special after his old friend Scott ‘Spiral Stairs' Kannberg created a suitably trippy musical track (spiced with some Stephen Malkmus feedback yowls). It's both a surprising reunion and a heartwarming send-off recorded for the movie shortly before Gary's passing in August 2023. https://www.facebook.com/kelly.foley.5458
The Means justifies the end, an ultra random 80s sex comedy, the Doctor is in, Samuel Alito sucks donkey dicks, yelling at myself, Charles Durning will kick your ass, Jan-Michael Vincent as cautionary tale, a very solid horror comedy with Liam Neeson, and a brand new spooky supernatural movie set in Ireland. Stuff mentioned: Stuck on You (1982), Universal Life Church (https://getordained.org), Stand Alone (1985), Walking Tall (1973), Cocoon (1985), Death Wish (1974), Defiance (1980), Cold Storage (2026), Stranger Things (2016-2025), Pavements (2024), and Hokum (2026).

JOHN 19:1-16 - CRUCIFY HIM - BRIAN SUMNER - 2025JOHN 19:1-16 "So then Pilate took Jesus and scourged Him. 2 And the soldiers twisted a crown of thorns and put it on His head, and they put on Him a purple robe. 3 Then they said, “Hail, King of the Jews!” And they struck Him with their hands.4 Pilate then went out again, and said to them, “Behold, I am bringing Him out to you, that you may know that I find no fault in Him.”Pilate's Decision5 Then Jesus came out, wearing the crown of thorns and the purple robe. And Pilate said to them, “Behold the Man!”6 Therefore, when the chief priests and officers saw Him, they cried out, saying, “Crucify Him, crucify Him!”Pilate said to them, “You take Him and crucify Him, for I find no fault in Him.”7 The Jews answered him, “We have a law, and according to our law He ought to die, because He made Himself the Son of God.”8 Therefore, when Pilate heard that saying, he was the more afraid, 9 and went again into the Praetorium, and said to Jesus, “Where are You from?” But Jesus gave him no answer.10 Then Pilate said to Him, “Are You not speaking to me? Do You not know that I have power to crucify You, and power to release You?”11 Jesus answered, “You could have no power at all against Me unless it had been given you from above. Therefore the one who delivered Me to you has the greater sin.”12 From then on Pilate sought to release Him, but the Jews cried out, saying, “If you let this Man go, you are not Caesar's friend. Whoever makes himself a king speaks against Caesar.”13 When Pilate therefore heard that saying, he brought Jesus out and sat down in the judgment seat in a place that is called The Pavement, but in Hebrew, Gabbatha. 14 Now it was the Preparation Day of the Passover, and about the sixth hour. And he said to the Jews, “Behold your King!”15 But they cried out, “Away with Him, away with Him! Crucify Him!”Pilate said to them, “Shall I crucify your King?”The chief priests answered, “We have no king but Caesar!”16 Then he delivered Him to them to be crucified. Then they took Jesus and led Him away."To support this channel and partner with Brian in Ministryhttps://www.briansumner.net/support/For more on Brianhttp://www.briansumner.nethttps://www.instagram.com/BRIANSUMNER/https://www.facebook.com/BRIANSUMNEROFFICIALTo listen to Brians Podcast, click below.https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast...Purchase Brians Marriage book at https://www.amazon.com/Never-Fails-Da...Brian is a full time "Urban Missionary" both locally and internationally with a focus on MISSIONS - MARRIAGES - MINISTRY.

From a $50 single to global influence, The Clean helped shape the sound and spirit of independent music as we know it.In this episode, we dive into the definitive story of The Clean—formed in Dunedin, New Zealand in 1978 by the Kilgour brothers and their friends—and how their raw, lo-fi approach sparked an entire movement. From the underground success of “Tally Ho!” to their role in building the Flying Nun scene, The Clean's impact can still be heard in bands like Pavement and Yo La Tengo.Featuring an in-depth interview with Richard Langston, author of The Clean: In the Dreamlife You Need a Rubber Soul, we explore the band's story in their own words—through the voices of the musicians, collaborators, and friends who lived it. From early days in Dunedin to international tours and beyond, this is the inside story of a band that changed indie music forever.Purchase a copy of The Clean: In the Dreamlife You Need a Rubber SoulFollow Richard Langston:FacebookInstagram----------
Visuals: https://getbehindthebillboard.com/episode-107-alice-goodrich Episode #107 features the wonderful, multi-talented Alice Goodrich from VCCP. We spent a lovely hour discussing Alice's county-level tennis career, her time as a Dior makeup artist, her stint as an internal comms assistant for the British Army and how she served as a stand-in for Gary Barlow of Take That. And incredibly, we found time to discuss her brilliant advertising career :-) We talked at length about Cadbury's Dairy Milk "Made to Share" campaign which is a huge favourite of ours. The campaign, which Alice wrote with Tom Lee, has won gongs galore and is currently running in your local super market. Just head for the choccy section, like Hugh did before the show, to see headlines on bars which double as mini billboards, the wrappers telling stories of everyday life where generous souls are deemed worthy of the largest share of the chocolate. At a basic level, it's a pack shot with a few words on, but once you start reading, you get pulled in. It's incredibly engaging, satisfying, more-ish … much like the chocolate inside. It feels redolent of the first Uncommon BA campaign (500+ executions) in that you just want to see more, being rewarded over and over with great writing. Other brands, clients and members of the public (and this podcast) have started doing their own versions of the wrappers. Once your idea has gone into modern culture, you know you're onto a winner. Huge congratulations to all involved at VCCP, and the team at BulletProof design. We also managed to squeeze in: Bournville, Johnnie Blonde, Dua Lipa, Alice's Dad, Tony Cullingham, Watford College, Wimbledon, Pavement art, Cannes Lions and a few tasty flapjacks. Thanks so much Alice, for so much! Thanks also to Jon for the edit, Adrian and all the gang at Soho Radio and of course huge gratitude to all our sponsors, who make the show possible: Bauer Media Outdoor View2Fill Super Optimal GAS Music

How do you convey love at first sight on an audio-only medium? What does that sound like? What in tarnation has got into you?

I keep trying to make a joke that shows on shortwave radio are second-rate compared with FM radio. Melinda, being a longtime expert, reminded me that people in our time like Alex Jones, ReviewBrah and various cult leaders have to pay extra to have their shows broadcast on shortwave. So maybe it should be considered a status symbol instead of a mark of weakness.2. Listeners have already heard The Cherry Pachyderm's real name, Latthew Morressier, during his first appearance in episode 24, “Consulting Defectives.” He forgot but I didn't.https://archive.org/details/tgimh-24-consulting-defectives3. It came out sounding like I'm dragging hillbillies for hoping their kids take the same job their father and grandfather had, but it's not what I intended. I think this expectation is similar for people all over the US. Even though my grandfather (the master plumber) and my dad (the steamfitter) would be glad I got an office job instead of following in their footsteps, there's a part of me that feels like I let them down by taking a different path.Credits:Music in this episode came from these public domain films:The Sun Sets at Dawn (1950), Too Late for Tears (1949, aka Killer Bait) and The Big Combo (1955).

Scot and Jeff discuss The Apples in Stereo with Jack Butler. Introducing the Band: Your hosts Scot Bertram (@ScotBertram) and Jeff Blehar (@EsotericCD) with guest Jack Butler. Jack is deputy editor for Free Expression, a new newsletter about politics and culture from the Wall Street Journal opinion page. Previously he was submissions editor for National Review Online. You can follow him on Twitter/x @jackbutler4815. And unless you're a 2:30 marathoner, you probably can't follow him in real life — unless he lets you. Jack's Music Pick: The Apples in Stereo Get ready for sunshine melodies, fuzzed-out guitars, and pure pop sweetness, because we're diving into the colorful world of The Apples in Stereo. On this episode, we walk through the band's discography album by album, tracing how Robert Schneider and company blended psychedelia, power pop, and a DIY spirit into a signature sound. You might not be familiar with the band (yet), but you know the influences -- The Beatles, ELO, XTC, Pavement, Guided by Voices, The Beach Boys. We travel from the lo-fi charm of Fun Trick Noisemaker to the "space disco" feel of Travellers in Space and Time. Along the way, Scot takes the proper time to pay tribute to an all-time favorite album, New Magnetic Wonder, and we discuss the unorthodox ways the band found its way into children's programming. Plus Hilarie Sidney gets her due as an excellent and underrated singer, songwriter, and drummer. Schneider's interest in science, space, and sound influenced the band's later work specifically, with conceptual elements and unconventional recording approaches shaping their music. New Magnetic Wonder even touts Schneider's invention of a new musical scale: the "Non-Pythagorean scale" (he's now a mathematics professor at Northern Michigan University, so it all makes sense in the end). Throughout the years, the band kept pushing forward without losing a sense of wonder and experimentation that defined their earliest work and refined their ability to create hooks and melodies that lodge inside your brain for weeks at a time. And you can't tell the story of The Apples in Stereo without diving into the world of the Elephant 6 Recording Company, the loose collective of like-minded musicians that helped spark an indie-pop movement in the '90s. Jack takes the lead in describing this element of the show. This episode is a celebration of melody, creativity, and the joy of making something delightfully strange. It'll fill you with energy.

Melissa Auf der Maur's new memoir, Even the Good Girls Will Cry: A '90s Rock Memoir(DaCapo, 2026) is a remarkably open-hearted, clear-eyed memoir of the '90s Alternative era by the bassist of Hole and The Smashing Pumpkins Even the Good Girls Will Cry begins with Auf der Maur's bohemian upbringing in Montreal, where her early, deep connection to art and music gave her entry to the colorful and thriving local creative scene. Working as a cassette DJ and ticket girl, she would see (and sometimes meet) the luminaries who'd pass through town--Nirvana, Jane's Addiction, Pavement, Sonic Youth. Thanks to a thrown beer bottle and a long-shot fan letter to a PO Box, her band Tinker scored a life-changing opening slot for The Smashing Pumpkins and, sensing her natural talent on bass, Billy Corgan recommended her to Courtney Love, just one of the many uncanny threads that weaves destiny throughout this riveting memoir. Whisked from her local scene and thrust into the eye of a hurricane of grief on a global stage, Melissa joined Hole for the band's 1994 Live Through This world tour just after the deaths of Kurt Cobain and Hole's prior bassist, Kristen Pfaff, with Courtney Love at the center of it all. It was a tour of passionate intensity, as a chaotic yet stunningly powerful band constantly threatened to spin out of control. Melissa brings the reader with raging intimacy into the action, offering a heroic portrait of the unforgettable Courtney Love as she howled into the darkness as if to keep grief at bay. That was only the beginning of Melissa's journey through alternative rock. Part rock memoir, part travel diary, part psychedelic scrapbook, Even the Good Girls Will Cry is a behind-the-scenes rock 'n' roll memoir with a soulful intimacy and mystic undertone that sets it apart from memoirs by her peers. It is a vivid dispatch from the last analog decade, artistically capturing that bygone era in all its messy, angsty glory. Learn more about your ad choices.

So we had another idea for a movie canon.After blinking our way through The Moment – the recent mockumentary about Charli XCX by director Aidan Zamiri – we got thinking about a certain kind of music film that exists between the margins of biopic and rockdoc. Not real, not exactly fake… and all the more incisive for it.We came up with a handful of movies – some of them HIGHLY recommended! – which dramatise rather than document the artist's status as a ‘star': their negotiations with fame and celebrity, their discomfort with being the centre of attention, their feelings of being trapped inside the machine.In our conversation about these films – including Pavements, The Nowhere Inn, Spice World, A Hard Day's Night and Slade in Flame – we think about the irreversible vibe shift that marks 21st century humour, and identify the influence of film and TV comedy, from the Goon Show to Charlie Brooker.The canon is a slim one so far – at least compared to our adventures in Big Beat Cinema, the made-up movie niche coined by Finn and mapped out over two NT episodes and a list last year. But we've built a Rockufiction Letterboxd list nonetheless and are all ears for your suggestions. A reminder of the criteria: A film about a musician or band in which they play themselves, generally to comic effect. A blurring of reality and fiction. Not a biopic. Not a documentary.This episode contains some spoilers but not too many. If you need to skip the Charli chat for any reason, it's from 17:00–29:00.

"Louder Than You Think" Like many Gen Xers, I knew Gary Young as the drummer of Pavement, but for anyone from Stockton, he was way more than that. Let me back up. A key figure in the Stockton underground, Young played in a bunch of bands like The Fall of Christianity and he was responsible for bringing Black Flag and the Dead Kennedys to play shows in Stockton. Though almost twenty years older than the guys in Pavement, Young was their original drummer and played on their first few EPs and the seminal Slanted and Enchanted record. Young was one of the great characters of rock and roll and to get a real idea as to how charismatic, magnetic and mercurial he was, the documentary Louder Than You Think traces his life in art and music with unvarnsihed honesty and shambolic joy. The soundtrack, which features The Authorities, Edward Dahl, Pavement, Hot Spit Dancers, and Gary Young's Hospital, among others, is a wonderful tour of the Stockton Underground. Yes, Young got fired from Pavement, but what's cool about his story is that he stayed connected to the band--and that's the secret with all these Stockton kids--they stuck together even when some of them fell apart. As for Kelly Foley, the former singer of The Torn Lords had a career in Forensic Psychology and when he retired, he devoted himself soley to making art. Kelly knew Gary for decades and even had a project called Blue Boy Cometh which featured Young on drums just before his death. Foley is a lovely guy and he's kind of become the forensic archivist of the Stockton underground, making sure the paths of all the artists he knew--from Grant Lee Phillips to Crill--have their work preserved. www.independentprojectrecords.com (http://www.independentprojectrecords.com) www.bombshellradio.com www.stereoembersmagazine.com (http://www.stereoembersmagazine.com) wwww.alexgreenbooks.com Stereo Embers: THREADS + BLUESKY + IG: @emberspodcast Email: editor@stereoembersmagazine.com
This week's Talkhouse episode is particularly exciting for me, since my two guests are also two of my favorite songwriters and singers ever—and they happen to be big fans of each other. It's Matt Berninger and Eric Bachmann. Eric Bachmann was a massive part of the ‘90s indie-rock explosion as the snarling voice behind Archers of Loaf, a band that released four incredible albums in its relatively short run. But Bachmann ditched most of that genre's signifiers afterward and has spent the last quarter-century writing and recording incredible songs both under the name Crooked Fingers and under his own. His records are more in line with Tom Waits or Townes van Zandt than Pavement, and his deep catalog is worth a deep dive. You could start pretty much anywhere, so it might as well be with the brand new Crooked Fingers album Swet Deth. It's the first time Bachmann has dusted off the Crooked Fingers name in more than a decade, I'm assuming because it sounds like a more fleshed-out affair. He also invited some friends to provide backing vocals on a few tracks, including Superchunk's Mac McCaughan, Sharon Van Etten, and today's other guest, Matt Berninger of the National. Check out the Crooked Fingers song “From All Ways,” which features Berninger's distinctive voice. Fun fact: When the first two Crooked Fingers albums were reissued about 10 years ago, Bachmann asked two of his biggest fans to write the liner notes. One, I'm proud to say, was me, and the other was Matt Berninger, the intense baritone frontman of the National. As you'll hear in this chat, Matt has been a fan of Eric's since back in the Archers days. Berninger of course has had an incredible career in roughly that same timeframe, leading the National from small clubs to huge venues with a thoroughly unimpeachable catalog of smart, dark songs. (These two have those adjectives very much in common.) In addition to fronting the National, Berninger has stepped away on occasion for side projects and solo records. His latest release under his own name is Get Sunk, which came out last year. He's about to launch a Canadian tour followed by some dates in Europe—catch him if you can, the solo shows are a different vibe than the National, but no less worth your time. This wide-ranging conversation starts with a discussion of Bachmann's recent heart attack—a scary situation that's going to keep him off the road for a bit. They also talk about working together on “From All Ways” and a semi-secretive new thing that they've been hatching for the past couple of years. It's a great, deep chat between two guys who obviously admire each other's music a lot. If you're not familiar with both, I strongly suggest a deep dive. Enjoy the episode.

We're headed to one of the most legendary small rooms in the country to chat with this episode's guest, Megan Loveless, Talent Buyer for The Blue Room at Third Man Records – the independent record label in Nashville run by Jack White. Megan tells us all about the venue, which previously had been used for underplays, photoshoots, and special experiences, but in 2021 was rebranded as a full venue to host a wide range of events weekly. From its literal blue walls that give it its name to the lathe room that houses a 1955 Scully lathe which allows them to record select shows direct to acetate – The Blue Room is a truly unique venue. Hear what goes into curating their calendar and how Megan balances booking touring and local acts along with other types of community events. We learn about her history growing up in a small town with a love for Nirvana and Sub Pop Records which led to her attending MTSU for Music Business and internships at a small label and Third Man Records.
