In dieser spannenden und wichtigen Folge begrüßen Flo und Kai die Band Saviourself, um über modernen Metalcore, kreative Prozesse und Themen zu sprechen, die in der Szene oft noch zu wenig Platz bekommen. Zwischen harten Riffs und klaren Statements geht es um Musik als Sprachrohr, Haltung im Metal und die Frage, wie offen eine Szene wirklich ist.Save Yourself beschreiben ihren Sound als zeitgemäßen Metalcore mit vielfältigen Einflüssen – und genau so vielfältig sind auch die Themen, die sie in ihren Texten aufgreifen. Feminismus, Genderfragen und gesellschaftliche Verantwortung stehen dabei bewusst im Fokus und sorgen nicht nur für Diskussionen, sondern auch für frischen Wind.Neben inhaltlicher Tiefe sprechen die Hosts mit der Band über ihren neuen Deal bei Corrupted Blood Records, die Herausforderungen rund um Bandnamen, kreative Phasen im Songwriting und Inspirationen aus Gaming, Film und persönlichen Erfahrungen. Eine Folge, die zeigt: Metal darf unbequem sein – und sollte es manchmal auch.

#903. Comedian, actor, theater kid, chaos enthusiast — Gianmarco Soresi joins Kaitlyn for a laugh-out-loud, no-notes-needed episode recorded in New York City.Gianmarco opens up about starting out as a musical theater kid with Broadway dreams, how singing still sneaks its way into his comedy, his time on movie sets (yes, one involved J.Lo), and why he genuinely enjoys being bullied at SoulCycle.They riff on reality TV, producers, hecklers, triggering April Fools jokes, long-term relationships, creative highs, embarrassing on-stage moments, and a very questionable TV show idea involving… small weens.It's silly, honest, and the kind of conversation that only happens when two people are fully cracking each other up — basically, the perfect episode to throw on when you want to laugh and feel like you're hanging out with friends. Enjoy

Welcome to a truly unhinged episode, where Andrew's cold-ridden brain meets Sam's particular brand of chaos. This week, we're diving into Musicians in Odd Places—which, let's be honest, is mostly an excuse for us to get wildly off-topic and fact-check things on the fly (and usually get them wrong). Andrew even managed to misspell the theme title on his notes. We kick off by debating the horrors of modern parenting and screen time, reminiscing about the simple joy of having the TV just... turn off. From there, it's a short, unsettling skip to a discussion about Conkers, which, inevitably, turns into a mention of "Bollock Conkers". You're welcome. The main theme gets a slightly more musical start with Sam's Riff of the Week—a deep, pumping slice of dub that Andrew associates with summer. This somehow leads Andrew to mix up Jeff Lynne and Jeff Wayne (an ongoing national embarrassment). ### Riffs of the week #### Dr Sam's Riff - Jacob Miller - Keep on Knocking #### Andrew's Riff - Buggery Act - Rusted Pliers ### Dr Sam's track choices 1. Mike Patton - Teenage Mutant Nina Turtles Theme 2. Johnny Cash - Don't Take Your Ones to Town 3. D.O.A. - That's Why I Am An Atheist 4. Tiny Tim - Living in the Sunlight, Lovin' in the Moonlight ### Andrew's track choices 1. The Wombles - Remember You're A Womble 2. War of the worlds - The Spirit of Man 3. Labi Siffre - I Got The... 4. Public Image Ltd - Rise On the Menu of Oddness: * Mike Patton's Paycheck: Faith No More's Mike Patton pops up where he has no business being: singing the theme for a video game version of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. He said he did it so his nieces could enjoy something he was involved in. * Wombles Rock: Andrew's choice of session musicians in unusual places is Chris Spedding lending his guitar skills to The Wombles. * Johnny Cash vs. His Ones: Sam digs up the horrifyingly earnest Sesame Street parody of "Don't Take Your Guns to Town," where Johnny Cash sings about the little cowboy Billy Joe trying to take his number ones (as in toys and cookies) to school instead of sharing. * The Jeff Wayne Fiasco: Andrew confesses a lifelong belief that Jeff Wayne's War of the Worlds was an ELO side project, before Sam sets the record straight that the producer/composer is actually a TV theme tune guy. Also, a surprisingly passionate and improvised vocal performance from Phil Lynott is on the album. * Joey Shithead for Council: The legendary frontman of hardcore band DOA is now a local politician, serving as a city council councillor in Burnaby, British Columbia. * Chas and Dave: Funk Brothers: The unlikely Cockney duo were session musicians (the 'fuckbrothers', apparently) for Labi Siffre's fantastic tune "I Got The...". * The Tiny Tim / SpongeBob Connection: The ukulele-wielding oddball is apparently part of a kid's playlist because his song "Tiptoe Through the Tulips" was on an early SpongeBob episode. This leads to the discovery of his truly offensive Christmas single, "Santa Claus Has Got The AIDS This Year". * PIL's All-Star Band: A surprising lineup for Public Image Ltd's "Rise" featured Tony Williams (Miles Davis's drummer) and Steve Vai (guitar) on the album version. A lot of questionable facts and even more questionable chat. Get stuck in, you awful people.

In this Spiritual Riffs conversation, Susan and Sin dive deep into one of the most common questions on the spiritual path, how to know whether you're receiving intuitive guidance or simply hearing your mind. They explore the energetic difference between intuition and ego, why intuitive hits often arrive out of the blue, how fear interferes with higher guidance, and the simple practices that help you become a clearer channel for source. This is a grounded, empowering conversation that will help you trust your inner knowing and follow your highest timeline. What You'll Discover The energetic signature of true intuitive guidance Why intuition feels open, loving, supportive, and free of judgment How the ego hijacks intuitive hits within seconds Why intuitive guidance often arrives as random out-of-the-blue thoughts How overthinking blocks the breadcrumbs source is trying to send you Simple practices to quiet the mind and connect to your higher self How to follow intuitive guidance even when fear appears Why you can't get it wrong, because the universe will always redirect you How intention shapes the guidance you receive The importance of getting into your body, grounding, and connecting to breath Why true intuitive clarity comes from releasing the mind's stories How focusing on your highest intention opens new pathways and possibilities Resources Mentioned – Susan's 5-minute grounding meditation to reconnect with presence.

What does it really mean to grow up in a household where songwriting isn't just a passion—it's the family business? On this episode of Bringin' It Backwards, Adam Lisicky sits down with rising Nashville artist Cecilia Castleman for a raw, insightful look into her journey from Franklin, Tennessee's cow fields to the brink of her debut album release. From picking up a guitar at age six (instead of a twenty-dollar bill for the mall) to landing a publishing deal at eighteen, Cecilia Castleman and Cecilia Castleman share how a musical family, relentless work ethic, and a willingness to keep her art sacred shaped not only her sound, but the way she moves through the industry. She opens up about backseat sessions with her songwriter mom and philosophical kitchen-writing with her dad, the years-long process of choosing which "secrets and thoughts" would finally make it onto her first record, and even what it felt like to work with legendary producer Don Was after years of dreaming. In this conversation, you'll hear stories of fighting perfectionism, the struggle to stay true when comparison sneaks in, and the vulnerable process of turning personal experience into shareable art. Whether you're an aspiring musician or just a fan of great storytelling, this episode peels back the layers on what it takes to forge a musical career when "making it" means being both tough and totally yourself. Tune in to hear Cecilia Castleman's advice for artists learning to "hold your ground," her reflections on the highs and lows of chasing the dream, and why sometimes the right guitar riff and an honest lyric is all you need.

Send us a textIn this series, we've been spending time with artists who didn't just make hits—they changed the language of modern music.Today, we turn to a group that took blues, folk, volume, and mystery… and built a sound so iconic that entire genres still live in its echo.Led Zeppelin.Not just “loud.” Not just “wild.” Four musicians who fused session-honed precision, deep musical curiosity, and a taste for the epic into something that still feels massive generations later.Tonight, we'll look at where they came from, how they rose so quickly, why their time together burned so intensely, and how their shadow still stretches over rock and beyond.Led Zeppelin doesn't begin with rune symbols and stadiums.It starts with working British musicians paying their dues.Support the showThank you for experiencing Celebrate Creativity.

Last night was EPIC!

Welcome back to When Words Fail Music Speaks, the podcast that dives deep into the healing power of music, mental‑health battles, and the stories behind the riffs. In today's episode we sit down with CJ Pierce, co‑founder and guitarist of Johnny Pool (the band you've heard on “Madness,” “Tearaway,” and countless sold‑out arena shows).CJ shares what life on the road looks like after COVID—a whirlwind UK tour with 13 dates, a new record slated for release by year‑end, and the relentless grind of writing, recording, and performing while juggling a daytime trade in electrical work. He explains the evolution of the track “Tearaway” — how its meaning has shifted for him over 25 years — and gives us the inside scoop on the iconic opening riff (phaser‑flanger mash‑up, Digitech 2101, and a spontaneous jam with Dave Williams).We also explore how Johnny Pool's music has become a lifeline for fans facing depression, with songs like “37 Stitches” and “In Memory Of” resonating on a deeply personal level. CJ talks about the band's charitable side, from Toys‑for‑Tots shows to USO performances, and reveals his favorite gear—from vintage BC Rich guitars and Marshall stacks to the hidden‑treasure signature pedals that stay safely at home.Whether you're a metalhead craving a fresh riff, a listener seeking comfort in heavy music, or just curious about the behind‑the‑scenes hustle of a touring act, this episode delivers a candid, electrifying look at how music speaks when words fall short. Grab your headphones, crank the volume, and get ready to feel the pulse of Johnny Pool's journey.

In this Spiritual Riff, Susan and Sin explore the true power of surrender;  the moment you let go of control and allow life to lead you. They share how trusting the unknown, releasing judgment, and following your intuitive pulls open the pathway to deep peace, divine synchronicity, and miracles far beyond what the mind could ever plan. When you stop trying to control the outcome and let your God Positioning System (GPS) guide the way, you begin to see how everything, even the challenges, is working out for you. You'll discover: What surrender really means (and why it's not giving up) How to stay calm and grounded in uncertainty The difference between egoic control and divine guidance How neutrality dissolves resistance and fear Ways to strengthen your trust in Source and follow intuitive pulls Why synchronicities increase when you live in surrender How the Universe's "GPS" always knows the best route to your desires Resources & Links: >  The Surrender Experiment by Michael A.

A metal kid grows up on thrash and stadium riffs, then finds himself writing country songs on a beat-up acoustic. That's where our conversation with Jared Graham begins—somewhere between distortion and dust, showmanship and bare-boned truth—and it doesn't let up until the last chord rings.We trade stories about the albums that rewired our ears—early Metallica, the maligned but meaningful Saint Anger, and the Red Dirt records that sneak up on you with brutal honesty. Jared opens up about bombing out of a formal music track, switching majors, and refusing to quit the guitar. The pandemic pause gave him space to write; the return to stages—from winery barns to Montana saloons—taught him how to read a room, shift gears mid-set, and end with a song that matters to his family. If you've ever fought for a booking by sheer persistence, or felt that jolt when a crowd locks in and the set starts feeding on itself, you'll recognize his path.We tour the Northwest circuit—Long Branch's songwriter rounds, Ellensburg's WinterHop, Tri-Cities breweries that turn taps into stages—and swap notes on live presence from Slayer's velocity to Demon Hunter's surprise catharsis to Sturgill Simpson's relentless focus. Along the way, we dig into why rock-to-country isn't a sellout move but a search for a fuller language: metal names the rage, country names the ache, and together they feel like real life.If you love genre-bending artists, gritty lyrics, and the DIY hustle behind every “yes,” this one's for you.

This week Reid and Aria break down the global AI race from Nvidia's $5 trillion valuation and the U.S.–China chip rivalry to what happens when AI starts reshaping industries like medicine. Reid explains why the future of innovation depends on how we deploy AI, not just how we build it, and why doctors, scientists, and creators will need to redefine their expertise in a world of intelligent tools. Later in the episode, Reid responds to new calls to “pause” AI development and shares why he believes safety and progress must advance together. The conversation ends with a look at the future of healthcare and why, in Reid's view, AI won't replace doctors, but doctors who use AI will replace those who don't.
