Podcasts about Punk rock

This week's episode is about GG Allin. He didn't perform music—he performed violence.In this episode, we dig into the life of one of punk's most infamous figures, a man whose shows were marked by assault, self-harm, arrests, and chaos disguised as art. We examine his abusive upbringing, obsession with death, and the culture that excused real harm in the name of shock value.This isn't a tribute.It's a reckoning.Because when violence becomes entertainment, someone always pays for it.Sources[1] GG Allin - Wikipedia https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GG_Allin[2] GG Allin's Demented Life And Death As Punk Rock's Wild Man https://allthatsinteresting.com/gg-allin[3] GG Allin: 16 gruesome things you might not know | Louder https://www.loudersound.com/features/blood-and-guts-16-facts-about-gg-allin[4] GG Allin age, hometown, biography - Last.fm https://www.last.fm/music/GG+Allin/+wiki[5] GG Allin: the gruesome life and tragic death of the most shocking ... https://www.loudersound.com/features/gg-allin-the-gruesome-life-and-tragic-death-of-the-most-shocking-man-in-music[6] GG Allin: Live Fast Die | Malvern Books https://malvernbooks.com/2014/07/16/gg-allin-live-fast-die/[7] GG Allin - Biography - IMDb https://www.imdb.com/name/nm0021359/bio/[8] GG Allin's Last Day on Earth - VICE https://www.vice.com/en/article/gg-allins-last-day-on-earth/[9] Hated: GG Allin and The Murder Junkies (1993) "Punk ... - Reddit https://www.reddit.com/r/Documentaries/comments/gh3d0u/hated_gg_allin_and_the_murder_junkies_1993_punk/[10] GG Allin on Jango Radio | Full Bio, Songs, Videos https://www.jango.com/music/GG+Allin/_full_bio[11] Kevin Michael Allin; Rock Performer, 37 - The New York Times https://www.nytimes.com/1993/07/01/obituaries/kevin-michael-allin-rock-performer-37.html[12] GG Allin Gets Trapped in America, Sends Word to the Empire https://brooklynrail.org/2013/11/music/gg-allin-gets-trapped-in-america-sends-word-to-the-empire/[13] GG Allin | Spotify https://open.spotify.com/artist/5Nx3gPpU2OFLI80rv7fDX5[14] American punk rock musicians, GG Allin and the Murder Junkies at ... https://www.facebook.com/100064829642926/posts/american-punk-rock-musicians-gg-allin-and-the-murder-junkies-at-the-gas-station-/1166168385554139/[15] The Brethren of GG (i.e., Jesus Christ) Allin - Film International https://filmint.nu/brethren-christ-allins/

This one's dedicated to my daughter Ila–because if she were here, she would be losing her mind. Street art legend Shepard Fairey, No Doubt drummer Adrian Young, and Sum 41 drummer Frank Zummo swing by the kitchen, and we go deep on punk rock, skate culture, and how finding the right creative lane can change your life. While I'm searing steak and building the most aggressive tacos possible, we talk about growing up in the punk scene, the art behind skateboard decks, and how three totally different paths somehow landed these guys exactly where they're supposed to be.

A Note from James:In the Blondie song “Rapture,” which was the number-one song in 1981, Debbie Harry has this famous line: “Fab Five Freddy told me everybody's fly.”So the question is—who is Fab Five Freddy?This guy is one of the central figures in the birth of hip-hop culture. Not just rap music, but the whole ecosystem: graffiti, breakdancing, fashion, DJ culture, art, film—everything that eventually turned into a massive global industry.Hip-hop today represents hundreds of billions of dollars in music, fashion, and entertainment. But in the late '70s and early '80s it was just a small creative movement happening in New York.Fab 5 Freddy helped connect all those worlds. He bridged graffiti artists, musicians, downtown art scenes, and eventually MTV.He also just wrote a book called Everybody's Fly, and it was a huge honor for me to talk with him about the origins of hip-hop and how creativity actually grows.Episode Description:Before hip-hop became a global industry, it was a loose network of DJs, graffiti artists, dancers, and musicians creating something entirely new in New York City.Fab 5 Freddy was at the center of it.In this conversation, he explains how hip-hop emerged from a mix of street culture, art scenes, punk music, and experimentation with records and sound. He discusses the origins of graffiti tagging, the rise of DJs like Grandmaster Flash, and the cultural moment when Blondie's “Rapture” helped bring hip-hop into mainstream awareness.Freddy also shares how the first hip-hop film, Wild Style, helped unify the culture's elements—music, dance, graffiti, and fashion—and introduce them to a wider audience.The conversation then turns to the modern era: AI-generated music, the attention economy of social media, and why artists today may need to slow down and develop their work before exposing it to the world.What You'll Learn:How hip-hop emerged from a mix of music, graffiti, dance, and street cultureWhy early DJs searched old records for breakbeats to create new soundsHow the film Wild Style helped define hip-hop culture for the worldWhy artists today may need to resist posting unfinished work onlineHow creativity evolves when technology disrupts the music industryTimestamped Chapters[00:02:00] The Story Behind the Title Everybody's Fly[00:03:01] A Note from James[00:04:15] Meeting Biz Markie and the Culture of Collecting Hip-Hop History[00:05:35] How Jazz, Blues, and Soul Influenced Early Hip-Hop[00:06:22] DJs Digging Through Records to Find Breakbeats[00:07:40] Grandmaster Flash and the Science of DJing[00:08:41] Why Producers Became Central to Hip-Hop Music[00:09:54] Blondie's “Rapture” and Hip-Hop's Mainstream Breakthrough[00:11:00] The Downtown Art Scene: Basquiat, Keith Haring, and Andy Warhol[00:12:24] The Origins of Graffiti and Tagging Culture[00:13:48] Graffiti as Competition and Artistic Evolution[00:15:12] Punk Rock and Hip-Hop: Parallel Cultural Revolutions[00:17:47] The Idea for the First Hip-Hop Film Wild Style[00:19:02] Bringing Breakdancing, Graffiti, and Rap Together on Film[00:21:50] Lessons Modern Artists Can Learn from Early Hip-Hop[00:22:49] Why Posting Creative Work Too Early Can Hurt It[00:24:00] Social Media, Attention, and the Speed of Culture[00:26:00] Hip-Hop's Global Influence[00:29:00] The Birth of Conscious Rap[00:31:12] Directing KRS-One's “My Philosophy” Video[00:33:00] Finding Great Hip-Hop in the Streaming Era[00:36:00] Battle Rap and Lyrical Skill[00:37:00] Artists Who Still Push the Genre Forward[00:40:11] How Rappers Make Money Today[00:43:00] What Makes an Artist Stand the Test of Time[00:47:00] Sampling, Technology, and the Evolution of Music Production[00:54:00] AI Music and the Future of Creativity[01:02:00] What “Everybody's Fly” Really MeansAdditional Resources:Fab 5 Freddyhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fab_Five_FreddyRapturehttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rapture_(Blondie_song)Wild Stylehttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wild_StyleGrandmaster Flashhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grandmaster_FlashKRS-Onehttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/KRS-OneDebbie Harryhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Debbie_HarrySee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Ska-punk lifer Chris DeMakes joins Caught On The Mike for a conversation about longevity, songwriting, and three decades of turning punk shows into full-blown celebrations. As guitarist and vocalist of Less Than Jake, Chris has helped define the sound and spirit of ska-punk since the 1990s — blending big hooks, horn-driven chaos, and an unmatched connection with fans. In this episode, we talk about the upcoming Wake & Bake hometown celebration in Gainesville, the anniversaries of the classic albums Losing Streak and Borders & Boundaries, and why Less Than Jake has managed to keep the party going for over 30 years without ever slowing down. Chris also shares stories from the road, insights into the band's songwriting process, and how projects like his podcast Chris DeMakes A Podcast have given him a deeper appreciation for the craft behind the songs we love. From sweaty club shows to massive festivals, Less Than Jake has built a career on energy, consistency, and pure fun — and Chris breaks down how they've kept that momentum going for generations of fans.

In ep 163 of “How Do You Say That?!” sponsored by britishvoiceover.co.uk, Karl Jenkinson joins Sam and Mark to talk about narrating a story with more than one character accent, and listening to the overall sense of a piece - and the pictures it gives you in your own mind. We look into how to make a high end script relatable by creating luxury with a hint of humour. We get confused between Steam Punk and Punk Rock, and wonder about an amazing mechanical man. The wildcard section of the show introduces us to a gluttonous woman who can't help gorging herself whilst narrating a story.Our VO question this week is all about the personality you need for modern documentary narration... from Call Me a Cabbie to Come Dine With Me and Gogglebox... and Sam tells the story of her time narrating Britain's Poshest Brothel!Get involved!

We create more than watch winders — we create guardians of time. From single winders to full collector cabinets, every piece is designed to keep an automatic watch running perfectly to time when it is off your wrist. A mechanical watch is a living machine - and like all precious instruments, it deserves proper care.Script 2“Yous lot! Wi' me!” he shouted in full Scots brogue, and led a posse of boys in blue, with black moustaches and matching truncheons who were, at last, converging on the battlefield from all directions. The two failed assassins (the first was later described in witness reports as: small, thick-set and brutish wearing a baby's bonnet and trying to hold his face together; the second as: tall, bloody of face, apparently female and nursing her testicles) scrambled to make good their painful escape in an easterly direction down Bell StreetWe'd love your feedback - and if you listen on Apple Podcasts or Spotify, hit the follow button today!**Listen to all of our podcasts here - you can also watch on YouTube, or say to your smart speaker "Play How Do You Say That?!"About our guest: Having worked as an actor for nearly two decades... in the early 2000's Karl was cast in 'The Getaway- Back Monday' for Sony.

Season 20, Episode 26 of The Adventures of Pipeman. Keep Listening because it is going to get Louder Than Life for some winning listeners. The 2026 Winter Olympics are held in Milan and Cortina d'Ampezzo, Italy, from February 6–22, 2026, marking a spread-out, multi-location event across Northern Italy. Key venues include the San Siro Stadium for the Opening Ceremony in Milan, and the Verona Arena for the Closing Ceremony.Coincidentally, shortly before the 2026 Winter Olympic Games, Netflix released “Watch Miracle: The Boys of '80” which was one of the greatest times in American history. What that game represented the patriotic unity of everyone in the United States for one purpose: winning the Men's Gold in hockey at the 1980 Olympics against the mighty Russian team. This was a feat deemed impossible. It was a time in history when things were bad for many Americans and we had problems with Iran. The Cold War with Russia was at its height. We were very divided and did not see much hope of positive change and of all Americans being united. Sound familiar? Well, the USA did beat the Russians and it represented all that was good to come. What a sense of patriotism and pride, but more importantly, we were all one people at this moment. Not Republicans. Not Democrats. We were Americans chanting USA USA as we WON!Here we are 46 years later and we have many of the same problems. We also were deemed to not have a chance of winning gold. And in a time of major antisemitism, it was a Jewish American player from Pipeman's favorite team, the NJ Devils, that scored the winning goal in overtime. Now it's time to repeat the same patriotism and unity. Let's let hockey bring us together and once again be The United States of America!Let's also talk about around 200 of Pipeman's favorite bands will be in Louisville, KY for Louder Than Life 2026 on The Pipeman Radio Tour. The lineup has been announced and it is sick in the best way. Let's discuss it and talk FREE Weekend Passes. But wait! There is more on the Pipeman Homeless Tour and the Pipeman Radio tour in March. Let's talk Costa Rica, Surfing, Hell's Heroes, and back to LA! Oh wait! There is also news about Rocklahoma and Aftershock. Stay Tuned!Would you rather go to Prison or go to Louisville?Let's discuss Rebel WTF national day is it today? It is National White Day? No, It's National Pipeman's Chocolate Covered Nuts Day.

I have an uncle who used to sing the craziest (and often off-color songs). He was a WWII vet and looked like the Canadian actor Lorne Greene. He would rip out the kinds of songs that sailors sang and I would rush to write down the lyrics so I could learn them. And learn them I did. The hard way. It was irritating and frustrating. Even though they say the hand builds the mind and it wasn’t the end of the world that I spent so much time writing them down and rewriting them, I was still relying on rote learning. If only I knew then what I know today about memory techniques! You see, I now memorize and regularly demonstrate poems I’ve committed to memory almost every month during my live memory training bootcamps. I’ve memorized everything from ancient Sanskrit poems to some of the most inventive contemporary poetry. And today I’m going to share a few case studies and key tips I know you’re going to love. How to Memorize Poetry Fast The fastest way I know to memorize poetry involves a combination of ancient memory techniques. These are: The Memory Palace Technique Alphabetical association Numerical association (where relevant) Spaced repetition based on solid active recall principles Now, I know that weaving together so many memory techniques to memorize poetry or even song lyrics, sounds like a lot. But if you want to memorize poems fast, stick with me. Bringing all of these strategies together is much easier than it might seem at first glance. But first, let me demonstrate that I can actually memorize poetry. I believe proof is important because there are a lot of people out there who talk about skills they cannot do. In the case of mnemonics, there are even entire forums filled with people giving advice about memory techniques when they clearly haven’t lifted a finger to memorize a poem. That, or they’ve used rote memorization and are only pretending they used mnemonics. So with those issues in mind, here are a few examples. Please be sure to watch each example because I will refer back to these recitations to help you rapidly memorize poems of your own. Example One: A Univocalic Poem In this video, you’ll see me at the Memory Palace Bookshop I’m developing practicing the recitation of a univocalic poem by Christian Bök: https://youtube.com/shorts/b6oFIOnAwng?feature=share That’s from a fantastic book of poetry called Eunoia. Example Two: Shakespeare This video not only shows me reciting lines from Titus Andronicus. It includes a very important teaching point. That’s because I also demonstrate reciting the lines forward and backward to help teach you how to more easily commit even the most difficult poem to memory using a process I call Recall Rehearsal: https://youtu.be/nhjIkGu32CA?si=s6gIJz6Poq9Zpo6C&t=1380 Now, I regularly memorize Shakespeare. But in the case of the example shared in the video above, I had a special purpose in mind. I was doing it to reproduce the memory technique Anthony Hopkins describes in his autobiography. Here’s the full case study. Example Three: Song Lyrics In this video, you’ll see and hear me singing a famous song called The Moon Represents My Heart in Chinese: https://youtu.be/dCyPV6qfKkI The entire song took just over forty minutes to commit to long-term memory. Even though it’s been a few years since I sang the whole song, I still remember most of the lyrics to this day. Every once and awhile, I whip it out and it always brings a smile to my wife’s face. The reason this Chinese poem set to music took a bit longer to memorize other poems I’ve memorized is because it’s in a foreign language that I was only just beginning to study at the time. Example Four: Poetry Quoted in a Speech When I wrote my TEDx Talk, I incorporated lines from a Sanskrit piece called the Ribhu Gita. This was an interesting challenge because it called me to recall the speech and the poetry that had already been memorized. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kvtYjdriSpM This particular performance was a lot of fun, but also challenging due to the combination of a live audience, cameras and the fact that the world was starting to go into lockdown at the beginning of Covid. I had a lot on my mind, but thanks to the memory techniques you’re about to discover, I still think the talk came off fairly well. It’s been seen over four million times now, so I must have done something right. Example Five: Real-Time Poetry Memorization If you want to see me memorize in real time, check out this discussion with Guru Viking. Steve, the host, throws Shakespeare at me and I memorize a few lines and discuss how I did it in real time: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J62IN_ngYH0 Now let’s get into the steps, many of which come directly from my premium course on memorizing poetry. Step one: Use the Memory Palace Technique A Memory Palace is essential for memorizing poetry, or anything verbatim. What is this technique? A Memory Palace is a mental recreation of a familiar location. For example, in the first video example above from the poem Eunoia, I used my mom’s home from where she lived years ago. I moved from the master bedroom to the kitchen and living room, to a few other bedrooms and finally out the door and down the driveway in front of the house. How to Memorize a Poem in an Hour (or Less) Using This Technique Using the method of loci, you place mnemonic images along a mental journey. As I just mentioned, I started in one room, then moved to the kitchen, the living room, and so forth. On each corner and wall, I placed an association. For example, for the line, “Awkward grammar appals a craftsman,” I placed an image of Apollinaire in a state of awe changing into being appalled. Now, what exactly it means to “place” an association along a journey in an imaginary version of a building can feel a bit abstract in the beginning. But basically, you’re taking a corner, a wall or a piece of furniture and elaborating it with strange, exaggerated ideas and feelings that remind you of each word of the poem or song lyric. You can do it in any language and if you look at the Guru Viking video above, you’ll see me demonstrate exactly how and why it works in any language. In that particular example, I use the wall behind me for Shakespeare in the same way I memorize Sanskrit phrases when memorizing ancient mantras. To Speed Up The Process When You’re Just Starting Out, Do This Learning to use the Memory Palace technique can feel challenging in the beginning. To reduce the cognitive load, I suggest making a quick sketch of a familiar location that you will turn into a Memory Palace. You don’t have to be artistic. I don’t try to make fine art of it at all. To wit, here’s a quick sketch of a bookstore in the Zamalek area of Cairo I have used many times to memorize poetry and other types of information: A Memory Palace drawn on an index card to maximize its value as a mnemonic device. This one is based on a bookstore in Zamalek, a part of Cairo. The reason for drawing out the journey is to get it clear in your mind. That way, you can spend more time on the next step. But failing to simply draw a Memory Palace in advance can lead to a lot of unnecessary frustration. That’s because you will ultimately wind up trying to encode the poem while developing the Memory Palace at the same time. To memorize any poem as quickly as possible, you need to separate the two activities. Step Two: Lay Down Your Associations One Word At A Time (Most Of The Time) Shakespeare opens King Henry the Fifth like this: O for a Muse of fire, that would ascend The brightest heaven of invention, A kingdom for a stage, princes to act And monarchs to behold our swelling scene! When I memorized these lines, I started at station one with an image of the constellation Orion over the Statue of Liberty. Using the pegword method, I associated Orion with O. Then, using the general concept of a woman that inspires people, I placed the Statue of Liberty in the Memory Palace. In this case, the Memory Palace was a workplace where I was writing curriculum in Vancouver, B.C., Canada. You might choose a completely different image for the words “muse of fire.” But the technical point is that you want to find a direct sound and spelling correspondence that is: Based on ideas and images already in your memory Makes sense to you Making sure that the associations you choose are personal is part of what scientists call active recall. For me personally, Lady Liberty is an especially apt choice not only because she represents inspiration, as the muses. She’s also holding a torch, which helps me encode the word “fire.” But I also lived in both Manhattan and Brooklyn for awhile and often crossed the Manhattan Bridge. This makes the memory of the Statue of Liberty even stronger for me, and another reason why you need to think about the images that make most sense for you. How to Associate “Little Words” for Rapid Memorization What about a word like “that”? Tricky and abstract, right? Not really. You just need to pick an association that makes sense to you while sounding or seeming as close as possible to the target information as you can get it. In the case of the Henry the Fifth line, I just took “th” and linked it with Thor and then used rhyming to have him put on a hat in a dramatic way. Thor + hat = that. When it comes to the Bök poem, there’s a part of the sequence (full poem here) where I used Thor with his hat again: Awkward grammar appals a craftsman. A Dada bard as daft as Tzara damns stagnant art and scrawls an alpha (a slapdash arc and a backward zag) that mars all stanzas and jams all ballads (what a scandal). For a small word like “all,” I used the Punk Rock band All, but only in part. Drawing upon the mnemonic teaching of people like Peter of Ravenna, Jacobus Publicius and Giordano Bruno, I used the principle of reduction. Rather than imagine the entire band, or even an entire mascot, I just imagined the eyes of the mascot. To memorize at speed, I suggest you practice this principle of reduction. Also develop what I call the Magnetic SRS in my full poetry course in the Magnetic Memory Method Masterclass. By taking an hour or so to assign association to all the pronouns and other “operator” words like “that,” you won’t have to stop and come up with associations ever again. The Magnetic SRS training in my full program goes into further detail. It will help you develop dozens of images for words that seem like they’ll be tricky or repetitive. Done well, they can be used repeatedly, but never cause confusion. Step Three: Memorize Multiple Words When You Can Memorizing more than one word in a poem at a time is called mnemonic compression. This term can mean more than one thing. But in this case, I’ve technically just given you a description of how compression works with the Statue of Liberty example. After Orion for O, she represents five words: “for a Muse of fire.” In this case, it works because I’m familiar with the workings of English grammar. But you can’t always get away with this kind of compression, especially when memorizing poetry in another language. It’s just best to keep an eye out for compression opportunities as much you can. When I memorized my TEDx talk using these techniques for speech memorization, thanks to compression, I loaded one station in my Memory Palace with up to 17 words using just 3-5 images (depending on how you count them). Keep in mind that you don’t have to start with poems with long passages like the ones I included in my TEDx Talk. A lot of people like to start with short Bible verses. I’ve put together a list of Bible verses to memorize that address the theme of memory if you’d like to select a few for practice. Step Four: Use Intelligent, Creative Repetition As I mentioned above, rote learning is a real problem. What you want instead is something called spaced repetition. It provides a simple means of reviewing memorized material on a schedule that keeps it in memory. Different poems and lyrics will require different amounts of repetition, and it’s not easy to predict in advance how much content will require how much repetition. However, there’s something called context-dependent memory. Basically, it gives you a boost when you use a lot of content frequently. Or read continually within particular categories of information. So if you read literature and quote it often, you’ll probably need less repetition than someone who doesn’t. And if you memorize the sonnet form more than free verse, you’ll likely develop a stronger and faster reliability because you’ve internalized its rules. Creative Repetition for Long-Term Maintenance For most of us, poems will fade over time no matter what we do. Fortunately, there are creative repetition strategies that can help make sure you maintain them. One is to follow in the footsteps of geniuses. For example, Anthony Hopkins keep common place books where they store and regularly revisit favorite poems. People like Thomas Jefferson used this strategy too. Another strategy is to use reflective thinking to compare various poems you’ve memorized. You can do this from poem to poem or between poems and your favorite philosophy books, historical events, etc. Finally, look for opportunities to recite the poems. Even if you just quote isolated lines, this smaller recitation will help keep the full poem within your mental reach. 3 Alternative Ways To Memorize Poetry You might be wondering if it’s possible to memorize poetry without using the Memory Palace technique. Indeed, there are. Here are some options. Rote Repetition Although I personally don’t like how rote learning feels, it is an option you can explore. It’s a slower option for most of us. But one simple way to get more mileage out of sheer repetition is to choose the time of day and location where you practice it strategically. You’ll need a lot of focus and concentration on top of sheer will power to keep repeating the same lines without the fun of mnemonics, so make sure you aren’t interrupted. I’d also suggest focusing on shorter poems for use with rote. That way you can memorize more poems in their entirety and enjoy substantial accomplishments more often. Cloze Methods A cloze test involves showing yourself parts of a poem. As you read through the poem, you try and fill in the blanks. This activity can trigger some of the positive benefits of active recall. Here’s an example of how you would apply the cloze test methodology to help yourself remember The Tyger by William Blake: Tyger Tyger, burning _____,  In the _____ of the night;  What immortal ____ or ____,  Could _____ thy ______ ______? Visual Flashcards Finally, if you’re willing to make simple drawings, you can draw on flashcards. This approach is kind of like a visual cloze test. Instead of hiding the word “bright” in the phrase “burning bright,” you would sketch an image that helps trigger the phrase. I’ve done this a fair amount with memorizing the books of the Bible. It’s a fast and easy way to help the mind make connections without having to use a Memory Palace. That said, drawing can take a lot of time. I would save this approach for when you feel like an experimental learning experience. How to Practice Reciting Poetry from Memory There are three key ways that I practice reciting poetry, not only to ensure that they’re locked in long-term memory. The point is also to get the lines as fluid as possible and bring out various parts you want to emphasize. After all, it’s not fun to sound robotic. The point of poetry is to convey meaning and beauty, humor or to stimulate some kind of emotion. One: Write the Poetry from Memory Another aspect of proper active recall practice is to call the information to mind by revisiting your associations in your Memory Palace, then write the words down. When writing out what you’ve committed to memory, don’t worry about mistakes. If you catch yourself making a mistake, just scratch it out. Then, once you’ve written as many lines as you can recall, test them against where the verse is written in a book or online. Here’s an example of a test from another part of Eunoia I recently memorized:   At this point, I hadn’t memorized the entire poem and had to start a new journal. But the important point is to test in this exact manner so that you don’t fall into rote repetition. Two: Recite Verbally As demonstrated in several of the video examples above, I practice recalling the poetry verses from memory out loud. This step is important because it gets the poetry into the muscle memory of the mouth. And this is the best way to practice adding gravitas to your performance. I suggest that you also recite the poetry out of order as you see in the Anthony Hopkins video above. This will give each line primacy and recency using the serial positioning effect, as was codified by Hermann Ebbinghaus. During the learning process, it can also be helpful to make up a little tune to go with the poetry. Even if you don’t sing it later, there’s something to chanting and singsonging that aids memory. This is something Bruno notes in his memory guide, Cantus Circaeus (Song of Circe), available in this English translation. Three: Recite Mentally It’s also valuable to practice reciting what you’ve memorized purely in your mind. You can do this solely by reciting the lines while moving through your Memory Palaces. Or you can do it without thinking of the Memory Palace journey, which is a point you should practice as soon as possible. If you are going to perform the poem live, it’s also helpful to imagine yourself delivering it live on camera or in front of an audience. I’ve done all of these things and it has really helped make sure my performance is fluid. But it also creates that priceless feeling of preparation. Your audience will appreciate your delivery much more as well. Make Poetry Memorization Part of Your Daily Life Finally, I’d like to discuss how to make poetry memorization a daily activity. We’re all different, but I personally prefer to encode new poems during the morning. This is simply because my energy is highest. Then I practice reciting in the evening. You might find that you prefer the opposite pattern. The key is to experiment, all based on having developed your mnemonic tools. Plus, it only makes sense to have a lot of poetry that you like within reach. Along with having the right memory techniques for this kind of verbatim learning task. That’s ultimately the most important tip of all. To get fast with memorizing poetry, you need to have your mnemonics prepped in advance. If you’d like more help on how the Memory Palace technique and related mnemonic strategies will help you memorize poems of any length, please consider signing up for my FREE Memory Improvement Course: It will take you through developing Memory Palaces for memorizing any poem at speed. Those poems can be as short as a simple song or as long as the Bible (which as I discuss in this tutorial, is possible to memorize). Or you can memorize songs from your weird uncle like I often did… even if I can’t always repeat them in polite company. Frankly, I wish I’d known these techniques back when I was young. Not only because I’d remember more of the words to the songs he sang. I’d remember more about him too. And that’s ultimately the greatest thing about memorizing poetry. We’re memorizing the ideas, feelings and images that impacted others, literally integrating ourselves with the stuff of life through memory.

Send a textWe're on a highway to Hull this week as we're joined by the kings of The Humber, Zero Cost!They have their debut full length out later this year on Engineer Records and they tease us with some details about their record release show. We also discuss rural crime, a homage using a "huh", the worst time to have a bath, water storage within one's self and a lot more.Danny Barrett furnishes us with another top 5 punk songs, Tom hears a heart breaking story about a man whose illness prevents him from listening to the pod and we finally get around to discussing our views on "ska for BBQs", Sublime.Music this week comes from: The Dirtbombs, Headaches, Dead Kennedys, Rivalry and The Overbites.

On this week's episode of Caught on the Mike, I sit down with Kevin and Mike of Great Danes — a project built on experience, reinvention, and unfinished business. Longtime fans will remember Kevin and Mike from their earlier chapter in Halifax, the melodic pop-punk/emo band that helped soundtrack the mid-2000s alternative scene with high-energy anthems and emotionally charged songwriting. After years of growth, perspective, and life beyond that era, they've reemerged with Great Danes — a band that feels more refined, more intentional, and creatively fearless.

Joe Escalante's weekly hunting of wabbits in the business end of showbiz. This week: Joe had no negative feelings about the Bad Bunny halftime show, but explains why he understands the people who did not like it. Also, the latest from the Box Office...

What actually happens when you stop isolating everything and just let a band play together in the room? Get access to FREE mixing mini-course: https://MixMasterBundle.com My guest today is Travis Harrison, founder of Serious Business Music, a Brooklyn-based studio known for capturing raw, honest performances from real bands. Travis joined me to talk about how his studio and workflow evolved over time - from early audio-only recordings to embracing video, hybrid setups, and modern tools - while still staying rooted in classic recording approaches. We talked about recording bands live in the room, why Travis embraces bleed instead of fighting it, and how capturing the energy of a performance often matters more than perfect isolation. He shared how he'll use simple setups like a single M 160 ribbon mic on drums, how preparation and adaptability become critical when recording larger bands, and why letting musicians interact naturally can shape the sound of a record in ways plugins never will. Travis also broke down his hybrid workflow, using tape as a tone-shaping tool rather than a rigid format - running tracks through a tape machine for color before moving into Pro Tools for editing and mixing. We discussed mic choices like using an SM57 on bass cabinets for midrange growl, routing and flexibility with a Soundcraft Ghost console, and how his Brooklyn studio has been shaped by real-world challenges like soundproofing, space limitations, and evolving technology. Throughout the conversation, we kept coming back to the balance between tradition and innovation - and why great records still come down to musicians, rooms, and decisions made in the moment.   THANKS TO OUR SPONSORS! http://UltimateMixingMasterclass.com https://usa.sae.edu/ https://www.izotope.com Use code ROCK10 to get 10% off! https://www.native-instruments.com Use code ROCK10 to get 10% off! https://www.adam-audio.com/ https://www.spectra1964.com https://gracedesign.com/ https://pickrmusic.com  https://RecordingStudioRockstars.com/Academy https://www.thetoyboxstudio.com/ Listen to the podcast theme song "Skadoosh!" https://solo.to/lijshawmusic Listen to this guest's discography on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/playlist/0RdFM4aImmogaEJBwV5pla?si=8b285a72dca7478a   If you love the podcast, then please leave a review: https://RSRockstars.com/Review   CLICK HERE FOR COMPLETE SHOW NOTES AT: https://RSRoockstars.com/543
