Black Stone Cherry is a band that always evokes good times in their riffs, their vibes, and their demeanor. So what exactly is the spirituality behind life's best days and in the moments of celebration? That's exactly what I speak about with BSC guitarist Ben Wells about in this brand new Psychic Warfare. We speak on what you gain by giving back, the bliss and holiness of a perfect day, and also how the presence of good company and the right people keep you grounded in the present moment. Life is short, and worth celebrating. On this, Ben and I most heartily agree. Come listen for yourself! Black Stone Cherry's new EP "Celebrate" will release on March 6 wherever you stream music.

We kick things off diving into home studio recording—talking apps, simple setups, and the tools I actually use to capture ideas fast. I show off a couple of my go-to recording apps and how they fit into my workflow. Then… the mystery continues.

Irish doom heavyweights Brigantia are back on the show! Myself & Howard had a great catch-up with Dave Gleeson (Guitar/Vocals) and Neill Nevin (Bass) of Co. Tipperary's traditional doom torchbearers Brigantia, as we dive deep into their upcoming EP — recorded in Limerick with Ben Wanders at Wanderland Studios — and set for release sometime in 2026. Brigantia have been flying the doom flag since 2007 (with roots stretching back to the ‘90s), and this new chapter feels heavier, darker and more focused than ever.

In this episode, Andrew and Dr Sam tackle the high-brow topic of Autumn, which mostly involves Sam moaning about how grey Finland is and Andrew recounting the time he kicked a pile of dog muck while trying to be whimsical. We also dive deep into the world of Roy Orbison, specifically his secret life as a competitive remote-control car enthusiast and how he basically wore the same pair of filthy glasses for 25 years. Andrew finally sees the Rocky Horror Picture Show and is traumatised by middle-aged men in stockings, Sam tries to find a version of 'Autumn Leaves' that doesn't taste like high-fructose corn syrup, and we discuss why the Beatles were basically ancient by the time they hit 30. There's also some talk about Jeff Lynne (obviously), stealing cheese from Blur, and why you should never go to an all-you-can-eat buffet if you value your self-respect.   ### Riffs of the week #### Dr Sam's Riff - Roy Orbison - (All I Can Do Is) Dream You #### Andrew's Riff - Rocky Horror Picture Show - Sweet Transvestite ### Dr Sam's track choices 1.

On this episode of Straturday Night Live on Johnny Beane TV, we dive into a long-buried, newly resurfaced interview with Ozzy Osbourne—and he is unfiltered. The Prince of Darkness calls out his former Black Sabbath bandmates with some brutally honest words from the years after his firing. Then things get weird: we check out pizza photos with the strangest toppings you've ever seen… and the night turns into a full-on studio mystery when Ron says he mailed me a webcam I have zero memory of receiving. So what happens? I tear the entire studio apart searching for it. Did we find it… or not? You'll have to tune in to see.

Brothers Within Join Riffs & RhythmsThis week on the Riffs & Rhythms Podcast, we're joined in the studio by Brothers Within, one of Florida's fastest-rising and most talked-about bands—and according to Google's AI overview, one of the hottest bands in the state.We dive into how they built a fiercely loyal fanbase, their approach to recording and performing music in today's independent scene, and what it really takes to translate studio tracks into high-energy live shows. From gear talk and home recording to click tracks, backing tracks, and performance philosophy, this episode pulls back the curtain on the modern band experience.Plus, we settle the age-old debate: 

On this episode of the Now Spinning Magazine Podcast, I'm joined by Joe Nally — bassist and vocalist from London heavy metal force URNE.We dive deep into URNE's new album Setting Fire To The Sky: how the songs were written (including a brilliant “Tesco riff” moment), the band's surprisingly broad influences (from Metallica and Priest to soul music, Toto and Peter Gabriel), and how Joe approaches vocals in the studio vs surviving the demands of touring.Joe also shares the meaning behind the album title (with a nod to Ronnie James Dio and Ritchie Blackmore), the story behind the epic closing tracks, working with Troy Sanders, and why heavy metal can be a genuinely spiritual, uplifting force.If you love modern metal with real heart, huge production, and riffs for days — this one's for you.Thank you for all your supportPhilBecome a Patron (free trial -cancel anytime)https://www.patreon.com/nowspinningNow Spinning Magazine Storehttps://burningshed.com/store/now-spinning-magazineVisit the Now Spinning Magazine Merch Shophttps://nowspinningmagazine.co.uk/

In this episode of Beat Motel, Andrew and Dr. Sam attempt to discuss "Great Songs with Questionable Lyrics" but mostly end up talking about accidental calls to the emergency services and the thermal advantages of having an itchy jumper for a face. We dive into the grottier side of grindcore with Edinburgh's CHOU, wonder why Wolf Alice has a drummer singing in a thicket, and Dr. Sam tries to justify why he once owned a Limp Bizkit record. Also featuring: Slade being sued for sounding like a brickyard, Jimmy Page "borrowing" songs again, and why you should never store your Lego boxes in a greenhouse. It's less of a music podcast and more of a documented descent into madness.

In this week's episode, Paul Andrews dives into a fundamental topic for guitar beginners: what sets a riff, a lick, and a solo apart? Understanding these building blocks is essential for learning songs, improving improvisation, and practicing with intention.Key Topics CoveredBeginner Guitar Academy Updates"Wonderful Tonight" Song Study is being re-released on Friday, February 13th, just in time for Valentine's Day. The updated lesson will have in-depth breakdowns of lead and rhythm parts, along with play-along tracks featuring scrolling tabs.February's Live Member Q&A is set for Monday, February 23rd at 9 pm GMT / 4 pm EST / 1 pm PST. Submit questions ahead of time if you can't attend live—recordings will be available for all members.What is a Riff?A riff is a repeating, recognizable musical idea and often forms the backbone or foundation of a song.Iconic examples: "Smoke on the Water," "Sunshine of Your Love."Riffs repeat often, sync with rhythm & groove, and are usually played the same way every time.If you're a BGA member, check the riff section for 75+ riffs and the workshop section for themed riff collections.What is a Lick?A lick is a short, reusable musical phrase, like a "word" you can insert into solos or different playing contexts.Licks are flexible and show up in various songs and keys. Blues and rock are full of classic licks recycled by greats like B.B. King, Albert King, and Joe Bonamassa.Key traits: short, flexible, easy to move around.Find blues licks and "Quick Licks" lessons inside the Academy.What is a Solo?A solo is a longer musical statement, usually constructed from multiple licks.Great solos are like stories, with phrases, space, dynamics, and emotion (think David Gilmour's "Comfortably Numb").Solos aren't just fast runs—they use repetition, variation, and phrasing.BGA members can check out the workshop "Learn to Play 5 Beginner Guitar Solos" for a progressive solo study.How Do They Work Together?Riff = song identity.Licks = your vocabulary.Solos = arranging licks into a musical story.Most beginners miss the "lick" step when trying to solo.

This episode is our third and final installment of a special, three-part Reid Riffs miniseries focused on what it actually means to become AI-native. In this episode, Parth shares how founders can rethink work by breaking problems into modular pieces, orchestrating AI agents in parallel, and collapsing timelines that once required entire teams days of iteration. Using real-world examples like coding agents that tackle week-long engineering challenges to reimagining how content can be localized across languages and regional markets, the conversation explores how AI enables small teams to operate with outsized leverage. Along the way, Reid and Parth discuss what separates real AI traction from “AI theater,” how founding teams are evolving, and why the most powerful AI often works best when it fades into the background, quietly amplifying human creativity and ambition.

Send us a textOn this special episode of the Riffs n Rhythms Podcast, we throw the usual format out the window and tackle one of the biggest music stages on the planet—the Super Bowl Halftime Show.From its humble beginnings with marching bands to iconic performances by legends like Prince and Michael Jackson, and all the controversy in between, we break down how the halftime show became a global pop-culture event. We talk about unforgettable moments, infamous mishaps, industry politics, marketing power plays, and why performing the halftime show might be the most high-pressure gig in music.We also dig into why artists don't get paid to perform, how production teams pull off a full concert in minutes, and what this year's halftime debate says about music, audiences, and culture today.It's funny, opinionated, nostalgic, and just a little unhinged—exactly what happens when musicians start talking football without actually talking football.

The guys dive into the importance of packaging, branding, and helping bands move product on the road, plus the unique challenges and future of the coffee industry. Michael also breaks down the creative process behind the Dave Lombardo coffee, including the innovative drum-inspired packaging, and shares how his passion for coffee turned into a full-blown metal lifestyle brand.Today's episode is brought to you by Rockabilia.com, Use code: DAVID10 for 10% Off your order. 100% authentic band merch since 1987!Join the Patreon for early access to episodes and Q and A's with the hosts www.patreon.com/tdesFor David Ellefson Stage Played Basses and Merch www.ellefsonemporium.comFollow David on Social Medialinktr.ee/davidellefsonFollow Joshua on Social Medialinktr.ee/talktoomeypodcast #megadeth #bassplayer #thrash #bigfour

This episode is our second installment of a special, three-part Reid Riffs miniseries focused on what it actually means to become AI-native. Instead of a news or headline-driven conversation, Reid sits down one-on-one with AI engineer and strategist, Parth Patil, for a deeper exploration of how AI is changing the way people and organizations work. In this second episode, they discuss why most enterprises are still talking about AI without truly integrating it (“AI theater”), and how the real shift begins inside everyday workflows rather than strategy decks. Together, they explore how language models and agents can reduce friction in communication and coordination, reinvent meetings, and turn unstructured information into actionable insight (with examples). They also examine how AI-powered analysis, automation, and parallelized agents are accelerating decision-making, reshaping roles, and moving work from execution toward orchestration. Parth and Reid both highlight how an open mindset and experimentation are required to collaborate effectively with these systems as AI evolves from a productivity tool into a foundational layer for thinking and leadership.

#912. This week on Off the Vine, Kaitlyn is joined by stand-up comedian and internet funny guy Trevor Wallace—aka the man who perfectly captures modern bro culture, White Claw energy, and those unhinged thoughts we all have but usually keep to ourselves. He's wildly funny, wildly self-aware, and somehow turned it all into a full-blown career.Trevor talks about starting stand-up at 17 with zero backup plan, the viral videos the internet refuses to forget, the cease-and-desist that changed everything, and the beautifully chaotic Notes app where his funniest ideas are born. They get into dating, random celebrity airplane encounters, their shared misophonia struggle, and just riff off each other nonstop the entire episode. You're gonna laugh. You might gasp.

This is the first of a special, three-part Reid Riffs miniseries. Instead of a news-and-headline driven conversation, Reid sits down one-on-one with Parth Patil, an AI engineer and strategist, for a deeper exploration of what it actually means to become AI-native. In this first episode of the series, Parth and Reid discuss how individuals can better leverage LLMs, agents, and creative tools daily. They trace the shift from seeing AI as a productivity boost to understanding it as a meta-tool, as well as unpack techniques like role-based prompting, meta-prompting, and voice as a high-bandwidth thinking interface. Along the way, they discuss the humility required to collaborate with these systems, the move from a single copilot to orchestrating fleets of specialized agents, and how these tools are already reshaping workflows.

Send us a textWhat does a GRAMMY nomination really mean anymore?In this episode of the Riffs n Rhythms Podcast, Kev and Paul take a deep dive into this year's GRAMMY nominations and compare them to the nominees from 40 years ago—and the contrast sparks a real conversation about music, legacy, and how the industry has changed.From We Are the World, Money for Nothing, and The Boys of Summer to today's chart-dominating tracks, we break down songwriting, genre shifts, production trends, and whether modern hits have the same staying power as the classics. Is music evolving—or just being consumed differently?This isn't a rant or a nostalgia trip. It's an honest, thoughtful discussion about artistry, streaming culture, award credibility, and what defines “great music” across generations

#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
