TCW Podcast Episode 243 - RCA Studio II The RCA Studio II emerged from the company's faltering computer division and the vision of engineer Joseph Weisbecker, who had long dreamed of personal computing after reading "Giant Brains or Machines That Think". He developed FRED at home, a TTL-based hobby computer. A later iteration using the COSMAC microprocessor inspired his daughter Joyce, who went onto program Studio II games, and RCA's forays into coin-op experiments like the Fredotronic. With the development of the CMOS-based COSMAC chip, RCA built trainers like the MicroTutor and kits like the COSMAC ELF, but the Studio II became their entry into the console market. Innovative in concept but hampered by primitive graphics, the system faced FCC challenges delaying release. The console launched in 1977 against the Channel F and Atari VCS, it struggled to find success, though its technology lived on in Taiwan and European licensed systems. Much of its history was later uncovered by researcher Kevin Bunch, which saved the Studio II from being just a footnote in video game history.

This is the Progress Powering Tomorrow. Allen Hall: Hey, Jewel, welcome to the program. Jewel Williams: Hey, nice to be here. Allen Hall: Well, we have a lot to talk to you about. You're an engineering manager. In wind and uh, we know all the pressure that's involved there just from the outside. Um, we're not working in it day to day. Of course. I am really curious with all the recent changes of things that are happening on the ground, what is your day to day like right now? Jewel Williams: Yeah. Uh, well, you know, it kind of depends on the day, of course. Uh, so, you know, in addition to wind, both in the onshore and offshore, we have, um, best solar and, uh, crane support on my team. So. Kind of depends on what's, what today's challenges are, what are the impending deadlines. [00:01:00] Um, so, you know, it could be compliance, it could be dealing with legal, it could be disputing an RCA or building an RCA it, it really just depends on the day. Joel Saxum: I think we breezed over that one almost too quick when we were talking about wind engineering manager and we kind of said engineering manager, and then you went wind solar. Battery storage and then this wild card cranes, you know, when, when we speak with people in the industry, everybody's busy. That's, that's the constant email you see back and forth. Oh, sorry, I was a little bit late there. Thanks for your patience with this. We're busy with this, we're busy with that. I don't think we've talked to anybody, Alan, that has like a complete renewables portfolio as an engineering manager. And then also cranes. We're just gonna throw that in there. Um, so, so I have a net specialty. I is, is it a lot of firefighting? Jewel Williams: It, it can be. It can be. Ideally we are shifting towards the kind of reactive to the proactive, but you're in operations and so a lot of times when work is hitting your desk, the first thing that [00:02:00] happens is a problem where failure and then the work comes to you. So in that case, like there's certainly quite a bit of, uh, firefighting and you mentioned the cranes is a bit of a wild card. I think that was one that. They weren't quite sure where to put. And we had a good team and a decent people leader, and so they were said Jewel, hey, here's a job description. We need you to hire a crane guy. And that was an interesting experience because I did not have the background to make the hire in the first place. But it's worked out really well. I've got an awesome guy to support. Allen Hall: So how many people are on your staff At the minute? Jewel Williams: Right now we have nine engineers. Allen Hall: Okay. So you're doing wind, best, solar, and cranes with nine people. How many wind farms, solar farms and best sites do you have altogether? Jewel Williams: Altogether? 24. Allen Hall: Wow. Jewel Williams: So we have two onshore bests, uh, four solar, and the rest is winds. Uh, and then, uh, three of those are offshore wind sites. Allen Hall: And how far scattered [00:03:00] about the country are they? Jewel Williams: Well, they're a little bit of everywhere,
Gurdip, Bec and Justin decided to crack open a time capsule from the early 1980s and inside sat the album that has become possibly the most divisive Elvis bootleg ever released. Intended as a spoof of cash-grab compilations of "hit" Elvis movie songs by RCA in the 1970s, an infamously crass compilation bringing together some of the "worst" of Elvis's film songs at first glance seems to be going for mere shock value, but the contents of the album and the story behind its compilation do reveal in-jokes from deep within the Elvis fandom at the time. The question then becomes, did the jokes reach their intended target or did they fly over everyone's head and simply pile on more mockery and add to the problem? Justin reflects on Greil Marcus's contemporary account of the album from 1985, which frames it as part of an ironic, playful punk recontextualization amid a cultural reckoning with Elvis as an object of mass attention, but also ponders whether that read misses the forest for the trees. And what of the songs themselves? Do such songs as "US Male" and "Beach Boy Blues" deserve to be labeled as among the "greatest sh*t"? We discuss it all within! For Song of the Week, Gurdip blasts through the breezy "Carny Town" from Roustabout, while Justin meditates on "We Call on Him," the inspirational number written explicitly for Elvis released as an Easter single in 1968.

Antonio Balmer explains the relative decline of US imperialism and the strengthening of BRICS
Joy Crookes schenkt uns diesen September ein neues musikalisches Werk. Mit "Juniper" legt die in London geborene Musikerin ihr zweites Studioalbum vor …und das hat es in sich: rau, reflektiert, radikal ehrlich. Die Tochter eines irischen Vaters und einer Mutter aus Bangladesch vereint kulturelle Tiefe mit musikalischer Reife, irgendwo zwischen Soul, R&B, Pop. Spätestens seit ihrem gefeierten Debüt "Skin" gilt sie als Stimme ihrer Generation. Jetzt geht sie noch einen Schritt weiter. (superfly.fm)
AI investment is exploding: the “Magnificent Seven” of Apple, Microsoft, Google, Amazon, Meta, Tesla, and NVIDIA, are ploughing almost 7% of US GDP into AI and data centres. That's the same scale as the US housing boom in 2006, and greater than the dot-com bubble at its peak. Today, just seven firms make up 34% of the S&P 500, the highest concentration in history. Earnings per share in these companies grew 37% last year, compared to just 6% in the rest of the index. But history warns us, RCA in the 1920s, dot-coms in the 1990s, that transformative technologies can change the world while destroying fortunes. The question now: is AI the next revolution, or the next bubble waiting to burst? Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Nick once again coming to you from Burghley Horse Trials and joined this morning by the Mirror's David Yates. First up Richard Hannon joins the show, who is hoping that Rosallion will finally land a Group One in 2025 in Sunday's Prix du Moulin at Longchamp although he faces some stiff competition. Nick and Dave touch on the latest in the Hillsin case which is scheduled for a hearing next week before Wilf Walsh of the RCA explains why David Armstrong is stepping down as Chief Exec. Breeder John little shares his delight in the success he has seen Lady of Spain go onto with Roger Varian, the latest a Group 3 success, and he discussed his why he thought the mare was perfect for sire Phoenix of Spain. Then with the Malton open day taking place this weekend we hear from Beck Edmunds and finally Kevin Walsh offers a rebuttal to Charlie Brooks's piece in the Telegraph earlier in the week, regarding the future of summer jumps racing.
In this second installment with Mike Duplissey, Doug Simcox dives deeper into Mike's remarkable rodeo journey — including his move from the IPRA to the RCA, Marilyn's NFR push with her horse Dan, and unforgettable behind-the-chutes stories. Mike opens up about the early days of Loretta Lynn's rodeos with Bruce Lehrke, his lifelong friendship with Lecile Harris, and the infamous streaking incident that nearly got him blackballed. He also shares how he and Marilyn became the faces of Ely Walker western wear, landing a long-running advertising gig that brought rodeo into mainstream catalogs and magazines. Be on the lookout for more episodes with Mike as his story continues.Presented by ParaSight System—helping vets help pets with FecalSight, FlowSight, and HemaSight diagnostics.

O întâmplare despre cum s-a făcut restructurarea la una dintre cele mai bogate instituții de stat din România. „Ăsta e de neatins, că e omul lui Stănescu, iar funcția celuilalt nu poate fi desființată, că e omul lui Thuma” (HotNews) - Povestea lui Ismail, livratorul din Bangladesh bătut în București: „Am în continuare tot respectul față de români” (Europa Liberă) - George Simion promovează noua campanie a Kremlinului împotriva Moldovei (SpotMedia) Întâlnire crucială la Cotroceni între Nicușor Dan și liderii coaliției. Ilie Bolojan este hotărât să-și dea demisia din fruntea Guvernului (Adevărul) Președintele României, Nicușor Dan, i-a convocat pe liderii coaliției la Palatul Cotroceni pentru a dezamorsa tensiunile generate de amenințarea premierului Ilie Bolojan de a-și prezenta demisia. În paralel, premierul va susține o conferință de presă la ora 10.00, la Palatul Victoria. Sursele politice precizează că tensiunile din coaliție au fost generate de refuzul unor partide de a susține reducerile și restructurările propuse de premier, în timp ce Bolojan susține că reformele sunt esențiale pentru funcționarea eficientă a administrației și pentru corectarea inechităților. Întâlnirea de la Cotroceni va fi un test pentru capacitatea coaliției de a găsi consens și de a evita o criză guvernamentală la puțin peste două luni de la investirea guvernului Bolojan. „Nu există alternativă politică la Bolojan”, spune în exclusivitate pentru ziarul Adevărul politologul Cristian Pîrvulescu. Deși critică abordarea ultimativă a premierului Bolojan privind pachetul II de austeritate, el admite că nu există o alternativă politică la guvernul liberalului. O întâmplare despre cum s-a făcut restructurarea la una dintre cele mai bogate instituții de stat din România. „Ăsta e de neatins, că e omul lui Stănescu, iar funcția celuilalt nu poate fi desființată, că e omul lui Thuma” (HotNews) Jurnalistul Cătălin Tolontan relatează o întâmplare despre cum s-a făcut restructurarea la una dintre cele mai bogate instituții de stat din România. Autoritatea de Supraveghere Financiară (ASF) are un președinte care a câștigat în 2023, când funcția era ocupată de Nicu Marcu, 12.500 de euro net lunar, cu tot cu bonusuri. Peste președinții Germaniei și al Franței. ASF, instituția unde primii cinci angajați din fosta conducere au avut toți venituri de peste 11.000 de euro net/lună, a fost una dintre cele din al căror buget Guvernul a tăiat luni, în Parlament. Cum au decurs discuțiile în interior? „Ăsta e de neatins, că e omul lui Stănescu, iar funcția celuilalt nu poate fi desființată, că e omul lui Thuma”. Toată instituția primea patru bonusuri pe an, fiecare egale cu un salariu. De Crăciun, de vacanță, de performanță și de ziua instituției, sărbătorită ca debarcarea din Normandia. Totul era legal, în contractul colectiv de muncă. În aceiași ani, piața supravegheată de ASF înregistra al treilea faliment consecutiv al liderului din idustria asigurărilor RCA. Vindeu multe RCA, nu plăteau pagubele și fugeau la propriu cu banii din țară. Conform raportului oficial, până la începutul lui 2025, cele mai recente două falimente au costat statul și cetățenii 520 de milioane de euro. Avem o jumătate de milion de păgubiți, persoane fizice și firme. ASF e un exemplu... Integral pe pagina HotNews. Povestea lui Ismail, livratorul din Bangladesh bătut în București: „Am în continuare tot respectul față de români” (Europa Liberă) Venit de doar patru luni să lucreze în România, un tânăr din Bangladesh a fost lovit, în plină stradă, în București, fără motiv. Agresorul i-a cerut să plece din țară și l-a acuzat că este „invadator”. Agresorul a fost arestat pentru 30 de zile, iar victima încă mai are nevoie de câteva zile de îngrijiri medicale. Europa Liberă a discutat cu Ismail Hossain în locuința acestuia din zona Pieței Obor din București: o cameră pe care o împarte cu alți nouă conaționali, toți cu aceeași meserie. George Simion promovează noua campanie a Kremlinului împotriva Moldovei (SpotMedia) Cu o lună înainte de alegerile parlamentare din țara vecină, s-au intensificat mesajele împotriva Maiei Sandu și a aliaților săi. Reprezentanții AUR critică ajutorul economic dat de București Chișinăului, încercând să acrediteze ideea că măsurile de austeritate ar fi provocate de sprijinirea Moldovei și Ucrainei.

After spending a little time mulling over the post-release feelings surrounding "The Colonel & The King," Justin and Bec give their thoughts on the newest Elvis box set from Sony Legacy, Sunset Boulevard, which encompasses recordings and rehearsals done between 1970-1975 at RCA's Studio C in Hollywood. The duo reflect on the the successes and shortcomings of this era of box sets that seems to be drawing to a close. From Elvis in Nashville, Back in Nashville, Memphis and Sunset Boulevard mark a period where producer Ernst Jorgensen and mixer Matt Ross-Spang have seemingly reinterpreted Elvis's multi-track studio work in the 1970s through a more "rockist" lens; that is to say, one that promotes and emphasizes the perceived authenticity or purity of raw material recorded in-studio by Elvis and a core rhythm band without additional backing vocalists, strings and horns. Despite great, modern-sounding re-mixes, these box sets have also marred by inconsistent mix decisions that contradict the claims that you're only hearing what Elvis heard in the studio - selectively leaving some overdubs, removing contributions from musicians that were physically in the studio with Elvis, and much more. It's a thought-provoking discussion about what the goals were, what value these sets have added, and whether they have helped us understand Elvis's creative process any better. For Song of the Week, Bec picks a childhood favorite, the sweet ballad "A Boy Like Me, A Girl Like You" from the Girls! Girls! Girls! soundtrack. Then, Justin uses "Good, Bad But Beautiful," an instrumental intended for Elvis to finish, to explore the fascinating circumstances of sessions, publishing, and release schedules that led to its recording at Stax in July of 1973... and Elvis's rejection of the Clive Westlake-penned song (later done by Shirley Bassey) at a late September 1973 session at his Palm Springs home, less than three weeks after having attempted to fire his manager.

En Centrafrique, l'axe fluvial Bangui-Brazzaville est jugé économiquement vital par de nombreux Centrafricains, notamment les commerçants. Pays enclavé au cœur de l'Afrique, la République centrafricaine n'a pas d'ouverture sur la mer. Elle dépend en grande partie des pays limitrophes. Aujourd'hui, la navigation sur l'Oubangui compense les réseaux routiers peu denses dont la plupart sont dégradés. Les ports de Bangui reçoivent chaque semaine des embarcations et le commerce bat son plein entre les deux pays. De notre correspondant à Bangui, Ici, au port de Ngou État, une dizaine de bateaux et baleinières sont amarrés. Commerçants et voyageurs occupent tout le quai et la berge. Le navire blanc et bleu - Bangui n'est pas loin - d'environ 40 mètres de long transporte près de 10 000 tonnes de marchandises et une cinquantaine de personnes à destination de Brazzaville. « Pour aller là-bas, tu peux acheter des bidons de miel, des cabris, les fûts d'huile de palme, des sacs de maïs ou encore d'arachides. Souvent, j'achète également des poissons que je mets dans des paniers. Par exemple, ici, tu peux acheter le bidon d'huile de palme à 9 000 FCFA, mais une fois là-bas, tu peux revendre à 30 000 FCFA », explique Fiston Ngbassoumbi, un commerçant centrafricain. 30 000 FCFA, l'équivalent de 45 euros, soit 100% de bénéfice. En bateau, le trajet coûte 25 000 FCFA par personne et varie entre 5 000 et 10 000 FCFA pour les baleinières. Les marchandises sont taxées en fonction des kilogrammes. Après avoir écoulé leurs articles au Congo, les mêmes commerçants importent les produits congolais en Centrafrique. « Pour le chemin du retour, tu vas acheter des boîtes de sardines et des balles de vêtements de friperie pour les garçons. Ici ça coûte cher. Mais là-bas, c'est moins cher », témoigne encore Fiston Ngbassoumbi. Chaussures pour femmes, ou encore appareils électriques sont moins chers à Brazzaville. « Si tu paies un appareil là-bas à 200 000 FCFA, quand tu arrives ici, tu peux le revendre à 500 000 FCFA. Ça dépend de la qualité des appareils », met-il en avant.

Le voyage a duré une semaine, compte tenu de l'état de navigabilité de la rivière et des embarcations. Maurice fait la navette entre le Congo-Brazzaville, le Congo-Kinshasa et la RCA depuis plus de dix ans. « Pour être libre de tout mouvement, il faut avoir une carte d'identité et remplir toutes les formalités. Moi, j'exporte du bois de chauffe, du manioc, des cabris, des moutons et des poulets. En retour, j'achète des produits pour revendre ici. Il s'agit d'huile raffinée, de savon, de cubes magie ou encore des cartons de sucre », détaille le commerçant. Mais la navigation sur la rivière Oubangui est loin d'être un long fleuve tranquille. En saison sèche, des tronçons sont difficilement praticables pour les gros chargements. Maurice évoque les principales difficultés qu'il rencontre. « Les difficultés n'en finissent jamais. Dans les baleinières, on côtoie des animaux et des marchandises au mépris des règles d'hygiène et de sécurité. Les embarcations font des surcharges sans gilets et bouées de sauvetage. C'est vraiment la souffrance », se plaint-il. Les travaux du corridor 13 reliant notamment le Congo-Brazzaville à la Centrafrique, financés par la Banque africaine de développement, se poursuivent. Le transport fluvial demeure pour l'instant le moyen de transport le plus usité entre ces deux pays. À lire aussiQuand la rivière Oubangui charrie le commerce informel [2/5]
Trapital Summit is on Sep 10 in LA. Join us! Get your tickets here. The major record labels are adapting for the modern era. Lately, that shift has them looking less like RCA and more like KKR. These companies have invested less in signing new artists and more in acquiring the legendary back catalog of music. With streaming driving steady royalties, the music rights of proven hits are valuable. Music companies have teamed up with private equity firms to cash in. I also break down how this changes artist deals, lowers risk-taking, and opens the door for global investors and even artists to buy in. 00:33 The Shift to Private Equity 03:45 The Back Catalog Boom 09:24 A&R Reductions 12:14 What The Future Holds This episode is presented by State Farm, the home for your small business needs.

There's a widely accepted view of the relationship between Elvis and his manager Tom Parker, the one sustained by the recent Baz Luhrmann movie, but a new and fascinating archive of unseen letters makes you see it differently: it was warmer, deeper and infinitely more complicated.

He talks to us here about separating the myth from reality which touches on … ... overturning the conventional wisdom “that Elvis was the puppet, Sam Phillips the genius and Tom Parker the manipulator”. ... how theirs was “a partnership of equals” – though Elvis was in charge, not the Colonel. … how Presley's “security risk” – carrying guns and drugs across borders – was a factor in his refusal to accept world tour offers. … two men powerfully motivated by money – Elvis liked spending it, Parker liked losing it. … humour, charisma, intelligence, a force of nature: how Parker's letters paint a different picture. … “he was an entirely self-invented man. And there was no-one more American – which was ironic as he was Dutch.” … the full story of the Elvis TV Christmas Special. … how Parker grossly undersold Presley's catalogue rights to RCA in 1973 for $5.4m. … the Colonel's Honesty game – “think of the number I'm thinking of and I'll pay you if you're right!” … how Parker tried to curb Presley's “smutty humour” and sell his “James Dean enigma” to the film industry after Dean's death in 1955. … how the only time he didn't carefully manage an Elvis appearance was the Steve Allen Show hound dog debacle. … why Parker couldn't control either his or Presley's self-destructive habits. … his gambling addiction and a miserable 72-hour stint in a Vegas casino. … and would the first internationally-known artist's manager have been as famous had he not called himself “the Colonel”?

This is the Progress Powering tomorrow. Allen Hall 2025: Jon, welcome to the program. Jonathan Zalar: Thanks for having me, Allen Hall 2025: Jon. Let's start with the reality facing wind farmer operators today. What's the core problem when it comes to turbine failures? Jonathan Zalar: There's been a larger number than they probably experienced like five years ago. I think, um, you know, the volume of turbines out there and some of the bigger issues that, you know, people are seeing in the last two to three years has made owning a wind farm a little more challenging than before. Um, you know, between blade issues, bolted joint issues, shoes, and. Overall, like o operations, right? It's been tougher to keep these turbines up and running, you know, manpower's an issue, getting people out there to go fix stuff. It's, [00:01:00] it's been tough for a lot of people I've talked to. Joel Saxum: Do you think this is a, a partial result of like, um, okay, so what we're, you know, on the podcast in the last few years, we've always been talking about, oh, there's all kinds of models coming out and there's this, this manufacturer can put out this many different variations and all these things, and now. Now we're getting to the age where that family, that group of turbines that, I guess it's kind, I'm looking at it like a class, right? That class of, that, those years of turbines are now getting to the stage where they're out of warranty and they're coming into, some people are taking, you know, ISPs taking, um, maintenance of them or an owner operator taking maintenance over from the OEM. And all of a sudden now there's these issues popping up and different things that we're, we're kind of in this. Um, like a swamp of problems with a lot of different models. So, uh, yeah, like you said, we've we're, we talked a little bit off air here about RCAs and how to fix things and looking at serial defects and stuff, but it's just like, it seems like every other week [00:02:00] someone calls Alan Ryan's like, Hey, have you heard about this thing with this model? And it's like, man, Jonathan Zalar: another one. I think it's a combination of two things. One. Like I talked about the last time we had podcasts, there was a, you know, a pretty big push to increase rotor size, come out with new models for, for every, for all the os, right? They're competing against each other. Coming out with a new model every 18 months. And you can ask Phil, but I believe mostly the OEMs are sold out. If you go back five, six years, where. A huge expansion in the amount of wind turbines that have been placed. Right. So I think you combine those cheap factors and now, yeah, the owners have a lot on their plate, a lot more than they're Allen Hall 2025: probably used to. And my question all is this, the complexity of the turbines. So every new model that comes out, what I'm seeing is more instrumentation, more sensors, more stuff, more variability, even in where the components originate from. Jonathan Zalar: Right? Yeah. [00:03:00] I mean, to increase, to be able to meet that increased demand the OEMs had to get,

After setting the stage by understanding producer Felton Jarvis's career leading up to his early collaborations with Elvis, we continue to investigate and interrogate the fan belief that he was singularly to blame for the "syrupy" overdubs that diminished the "pure" unfinished tracks. Helped along by a 1980 interview done between Felton and Jerry Flowers of RCA in which the producer talks about his career retrospectively, Justin and Bec trace Felton's journey as Elvis hires and hand-picks him to be his exclusive producer, taking Felton away from RCA and other artists so that Elvis can, as a largely autonomous artist whose only studio commitments during this decade are to send periodic deliverables to RCA, work at his own pace and create the kind of recordings that he truly wants. But was Felton truly to blame for the overindulgent strings and horns that were added to Elvis's music, or is there someone else that we've collectively overlooked? And has the narrative been all wrong and the way we even talk about "overdubs" been clouded by a widespread "rockist" misunderstanding of both Elvis and Felton, their respective jobs and tastes, and misunderstood expectations of the kind of music both fans & critics thought Elvis "should" be making? The duo examine Elvis's live performances in relation to his studio work, touch on a few more non-Elvis records produced by Felton, and even revisit the 1981 "Guitar Man" project Felton spearheaded before his early death to see if it provides clearer insight into the producer's preferences and tastes. For Song of the Week, Bec makes a promise that "It Won't Be Long," covering the recording cut from "Double Trouble," while Justin goes prospecting because he's pretty sure "There's Gold in the Mountains" still to be dug up from "Kissin' Cousins." Some of the resources consulted for this and the last episode included, even if not quoted or mentioned in the final episode: Felton Jarvis's 1980 Interview with Jerry Flowers of RCA William Bozeman: "Felton Jarvis: The Man Behind the Music" from Elvis Express Magazine Peter Guralnick: Careless Love: The Unmaking of Elvis Presley Roben Jones: Memphis Boys: The Story of American Studios Rick Hall: The Man from Muscle Shoals: My Journey from Shame to Fame Norbert Putnam: Musical Memories, Volume 1 Ernst Jorgensen: Elvis Presley - A Life in Music Ernst Jorgensen & Peter Guralnick: "Elvis Day By Day" and "The Complete Masters" Ernst Jorgensen, Johnny Mikkelsen & Erik Rasmussen: Reconsider Baby: The Definitive Elvis Sessionography Elvis Music FAQ by Mike Eder Alanna Nash: "Revelations from the Memphis Mafia" & "The Colonel" Luther Moore: "Felton Jarvis Re-Appraised" from Elvis: The Man & His Music magazine Brian F.

Intrigued by the premise presented by the recent Sony box sets like "Sunset Boulevard" describing Elvis's undubbed recordings as "pure," Justin decided to investigate the story behind the man who has borne most of the heavy criticism aimed at the production on Elvis's music, Felton Jarvis, who was Elvis's main producer from 1966-1977. While we've previously touched on Felton's work as a producer in our "Elvis and His Producers/Elvis as a Producer" episode, realizing we may not have given him a fair shake, on this episode Justin and Bec investigate Felton's early work at National Recording Corporation (NRC) in Atlanta, Georgia, his time at ABC-Paramount working with Tommy Roe, Fats Domino, Lloyd Price, the Muscle Shoals Rhythm Section and.... "Vince Everett"? They trace Felton's move to RCA Victor producing many successful acts and hit records in the field of country music in the mid-1960s and, naturally, his first sessions with Elvis across 1966-1968, chief among which was the How Great Thou Art project, which won Elvis his first-ever Grammy Award. Laced throughout are stories of a warm-hearted, good-natured Georgia boy - who loved Elvis Presley and dreamed so hard to one day produce his hero's music that he manifested it - from collaborators, friends and historians who have tried to relay some of Felton's story, as well as audio from Felton himself in conversation with RCA's Jerry Flowers in 1980, discussing his career in hindsight. Part 2 will even more directly interrogate the idea that Felton was, as so frequently repeated by Elvis fans over nearly 4 decades, singularly to blame for the "syrupy" overdubs that were a hallmark of Elvis's 1970s output, as Justin builds a case to convince Bec that she and everyone else - including sometimes even Justin himself - has been wrong all these years!

Mukharvinda Prabhu was telling us, during our program at 12 noon, about an engineering principle: that if you're trying to solve a problem and it's not easily solved, you have to go back and look at the root. It's called the RCA- root cause analysis. So, Kṛṣṇa consciousness is a root cause analysis, and the root cause of all problems, all confusions, and complexities has to do with forgetting Kṛṣṇa. And so, that's why chanting japa feels like such a relief, because most of our lives are moving from one place to another, trying to solve a problem, and as soon as we solve one problem, if we ever do, then another one comes, or maybe a multiple of the first ones, like a hydra. But when we go to the RCA and we take the advice of the śāstra, which is, "Always remember Kṛṣṇa, never forget Kṛṣṇa," and then to the very clear philosophy of Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu, which is, "Kṛṣṇa is fully present in his name," also, of course, the philosophy of the Śrīmad Bhāgavatam—āpannaḥ saṁsṛtiṁ ghorāṁ, Kṛṣṇa and His name are non-different—then we naturally feel happy to chant Hare Kṛṣṇa. What's more, if we're trying to find the solution to a problem and we can't find it, better chant Hare Kṛṣṇa. And if we feel that life is overwhelming us, better chant Hare Kṛṣṇa. So, thank you for being among the sumedhasah, as mentioned by Karabhajana Muni in the Śrīmad Bhāgavatam. Those who take to this chanting are extremely intelligent, because they've figured out the RCA. ------------------------------------------------------------ To connect with His Grace Vaiśeṣika Dāsa, please visit https://www.fanthespark.com/next-steps/ask-vaisesika-dasa/ ------------------------------------------------------------ Add to your wisdom literature collection: https://iskconsv.com/book-store/ https://www.bbtacademic.com/books/ https://thefourquestionsbook.com/ ------------------------------------------------------------ Join us live on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/FanTheSpark/ Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/sound-bhakti/id1132423868 For the latest videos, subscribe https://www.youtube.com/@FanTheSpark For the latest in SoundCloud: https://soundcloud.com/fan-the-spark ------------------------------------------------------------ #makejapagreatagain #mantrameditation #chantharekrishnaandbehappy #spiritualawakening #soul #spiritualexperience #spiritualpurposeoflife #spiritualgrowthlessons #secretsofspirituality #vaisesikaprabhu #vaisesikadasa #vaisesikaprabhulectures #spirituality #bhaktiyoga #krishna #spiritualpurposeoflife #krishnaspirituality #spiritualusachannel #whybhaktiisimportant #whyspiritualityisimportant #vaisesika #spiritualconnection #thepowerofspiritualstudy #selfrealization #spirituallectures #spiritualstudy #spiritualquestions #spiritualquestionsanswered #trendingspiritualtopics #fanthespark #spiritualpowerofmeditation #spiritualteachersonyoutube #spiritualhabits #spiritualclarity #bhagavadgita #srimadbhagavatam #spiritualbeings #kttvg #keepthetranscendentalvibrationgoing #spiritualpurpose

World War II interrupted his plans. Meanwhile network radio soared in popularity throughout the 1940s. By the fall of 1948, three of the four major radio networks — ABC, CBS, and NBC — were funneling their soaring radio profits into the burgeoning television side of their businesses. And because all individual U.S. citizens were taxed 77% on all income over $70k (roughly $907k today), big stars of the day like Jack Benny, Bing Crosby, and Freeman Gosden had the idea to incorporate their popular shows as businesses in order to qualify for significant breaks under capital gains tax laws. What happened when David Sarnoff and RCA, the parent company of NBC, the nation's #1 network at the time, refused to make this deal with its stars? It's time to uncover how a smart bet by CBS helped it overtake its main rival during the golden age of radio and exactly how this affected the early years of television. Join James Scully — Radio historian and producer/host of Breaking Walls, the docu-podcast on the history of U.S. network radio broadcasting for the second part of this two-part series that explores the events surrounding the CBS Talent Raids of 1948, and the many men and women who benefited from this monumental period in entertainment. In Part Two: Early Network Television, we'll focus on the rise of TV throughout the 1940s and early 1950s as the CBS Talent Raids took hold, including: • From Farnsworth to the 1939 World's Fair — Early TV History and How World War II slowed TV's oncoming growth • How NBC, CBS, and ABC Launched into TV while siphoning radio profits into their TV networks • The Dumont Network and Pro Rasslin' — Could the network have lasted longer? • Berle, Godfrey, Sullivan and The TV ratings landscape as we enter the 1950 • I Love Lucy Launches, forever altering Television viewing • How Television's explosive growth in the early 1950s changed America's way of life • TV's profits are radio's losses Afterward, I'll do a Q&A — any and all questions are welcomed and encouraged!Can't attend live? Not to worry! I'll be recording the event and sending the video out to all guests who register so you can watch it later. See you (virtually) there!
