Show Notes Episode 375: A Tandy Company This week Host Dave Bledsoe throws a tantrum when he cannot find a single ¼ inch to RCA audio patch cable anywhere in Best Buy and has to have several drinks in a nearby dive bar to calm his nerves. (Always some excuse with this guy.) On the show this week we tell the tale of the early tech giant you probably bought your first cell phone from in the early 2000's. (It is Nokia ringtone time!) Along the way we learn that Dave never really fit anywhere as a kid. (Nothing ever changes with this guy) Then we dive right into the history of Radio Shack from their origins as a Boston radio retailer to the rise of the Tandy Company who bought them with money made from assless leather chaps. (To be honest, ALL chaps are assless.) Then we tell you about how Tandy Computers beat out some little fruit based startup in California to become the dominant computer in American homes. (For a little while) Our Sponsor this week is Bert's Battery Barn, if it holds a charge we have it! We open with a Tandy Commercial from their halcyon days and close with Popgun spotting a faded Radio Shack sign on the side of the road.

Jake Rosenthal's job is institutional fun. As (former) co-owner of the beloved (and former) Glasslands Gallery(RIP) and current co-owner of PopGun Presents and Elsewhere, Jake and his partners run NYC's most established independent music booking company and Brooklyn's largest independent venue. PopGun, and, by extension, Glasslands, are known for booking acts just at the cusp of international popularity. Just by way of eg, as the list is long, Glasslands, a room with ~300 capacity, hosted MGMT, Yeasayer, Lana Del Ray, Disclosure, Icona Pop, Deerhunter, Tame Impala, Haim, and Jay Reatard, most of them for their first NYC shows. In this interview, we talk about third party security, building "as legal as possible", inspectors, service to a community, working with emerging artists, growing while staying independent, being a purist in an art business, the commercial support infrastructure for touring artists, running a music venue bar vs a normal bar, being music venue history nerds, and getting that tot money.

During wargames in Louisiana in September 1941, the U.S. Army found itself drawn into a tense firefight with an unseen enemy across the Cane River. The attacker turned out to be three boys with a toy cannon. In this week's episode of the Futility Closet podcast we'll revisit the Battle of Bermuda Bridge and the Prudhomme brothers' account of their historic engagement. We'll also rhapsodize on guinea pigs and puzzle over some praiseworthy incompetence. Sources for our feature on the "Battle of Bermuda Bridge": Elizabeth M. Collins, "Patton 'Bested' at the Battle of Bermuda Bridge," Soldiers 64:9 (September 2009), 10-12.

Behind New York City’s bustling nightlife is the hustle of Jake Rosenthal and Rami Haykal. The promoters joined forces when they began PopGun Presents eight years ago, and have been booking big artists like Disclosure, alt-J, and Tame Impala ever since. They also ran Glasslands, a self-described “psychedelic venue partyhaus” in the heart of Brooklyn. So, how have they cemented their place in New York’s ever-evolving nightlife? Find out in the second episode of Popcast. Check out eventbrite.com/blog for more podcasts, videos, and articles on the live music industry.
DPPOD - Mike Foxall (aka Fox Trotsky) of Nancy Vandal, The Neptune Power Federation, Musk and Deadshit Johnson talks to DPPOD.

Adam's first foray into comics was editing the Popgun anthology which then immediately won a Harvey Award and an Eisner Award in consecutive years. He still had to face the submission process in a later volume of the anthology and faced rejection. AMELIA COLE is the result of when Adam and his collaborative partners DJ Kirkbride and Nick Brokenshire wanted to launch a creator-owned series with a strong female protagonist. AMELIA COLE is digitally online at Comixology through Monkeybrain Comics; and the collected first volume will be printed through IDW. After they launched, Nick and Adam were able to bring letterer Rachel Deering on board along with several pinup artists.
