Podcast appearances and mentions of Rob Brown

On this episode of The Rumors Are True, Jeremy sits down with JJ Miller and Rob Brown from the mysterious Australian band Sal Paradise for a conversation about one of the more intriguing and overlooked stories in the history of Tooth & Nail Records. If you were digging through the Tooth & Nail catalog in the mid-'90s, Sal Paradise was a band that seemed to come out of nowhere. An Australian band surrounded by the very American world of Tooth & Nail, they didn't exactly fit the mold of what many people expected from the label. Their music was atmospheric, melodic, hazy, and beautifully rough around the edges — a strange and compelling combination of indie rock, alternative pop, lo-fi textures, and spiritual songwriting. Contemporary reviews of Further highlighted its Australian origins, gentle guitar-driven sound, and the record's recurring themes of driving, searching, faith, and discovery. At the center of that story is Further, the mysterious Tooth & Nail record that became Sal Paradise's American introduction. Released by Tooth & Nail in 1996, the album featured songs like “Road Movie #57,” “Sideways,” “Celestial Railway,” “Lost Maps,” “Vicarious Speedster,” “Perfect Lead,” and “Solomon's Fix.” The record has become one of those fascinating pieces of the Tooth & Nail catalog that longtime fans remember, while many newer listeners may have never heard it. And there is even more to the story. Sal Paradise's history goes back to the Australian band Crux, with sources documenting the band's evolution and the eventual move toward the Sal Paradise name. Further was their first U.S. release, but it wasn't the end of the story. Years later, JJ Miller returned with For You and Before You on Velvet Blue Music, revisiting songs from the band's earlier records in a much more stripped-down and acoustic setting. So what actually happened behind the scenes? How did an Australian indie band end up on Tooth & Nail? What was it like being part of that strange and creative mid-'90s label roster alongside bands like Starflyer 59, Joe Christmas, Morella's Forest, Plankeye, Roadside Monument, Luxury, and so many others? What was the story behind Further, the recording of the album, the band's lineup changes, and the mysterious journey that brought Sal Paradise to American audiences? Jeremy talks with JJ Miller and Rob Brown to dig into all of it — the history of Sal Paradise, the making of Further, the Tooth & Nail years, the Australian music scene, the songs, the stories behind the record, and what happened after the album disappeared into the vast and fascinating history of '90s alternative music. For fans of Tooth & Nail's deeper catalog, forgotten '90s indie records, Australian alternative music, and anyone who ever wondered “Whatever happened to that band?”, this is an episode you won't want to miss. Sometimes the most interesting records aren't the biggest ones. Sometimes they're the records you stumble across years later and wonder how you ever missed them. The rumors are true.

The real estate market is SHIFTING, can you feel it? We have not had this many homes for sale in Halifax at one time since August 2019. Homes are sitting longer than sellers and Realtors are used to. Homes are having more and more price reductions to entice an offer from buyers.Buyers are taking their time on their home buying journey. They're taking into consideration the level of finishes, the level of upgrades, what they see that they need to renovate in a sellers home to make them comfortable enough to buy it. They're demanding the sellers pay for more improvements to the property before they agree to purchase it. They're considering the monthly mortgage payments, the cost of property taxes, the cost of heating, and the cost of maintenance.If the buyer is engaged at all.That's the other thing, at this moment in time there are very few buyers engaged in the market. They're taking longer to get pre approved, they're taking longer to schedule viewings, they're seeing homes 2 to 3 times before they consider buying an offer. Why? After years of being in a horrible sellers market, buyers have come to realize that they have time again, they have leverage again, and they're using it to their full advantage.Rob Brown is back today to break down how to navigate your real estate journey in a shifting market. Jason Paul 902-220-7357 jason@infinityrealestategroup.ca@jasonpaulhalifaxrealtor @halifaxrealestatepodcastRob Brown rob@gofredericton.com

Only 41% of UK SMEs say their workforce has the skills to use AI effectively. Only 45% say their AI investments have delivered a measurable return. Donald Boyd is not surprised. He has watched firms buy AI products without understanding their own processes first and then wonder why nothing changed. In this episode of Fresh Perspectives, Rob Brown talks with Donald Boyd, UK Head of Growth at Azets, about what is actually happening with AI adoption inside UK SMEs. Donald's view is direct. The best use of AI right now is not AI out of the box. It is a root-and-branch understanding of business processes first. What many SMEs are buying instead is AI lipstick on existing software at higher prices. Donald and Rob also get into Making Tax Digital, why the shift from once-a-year compliance to four or five annual touchpoints is a commercial opportunity disguised as a regulatory burden, the case for government R&D support targeted at business process analysis rather than AI credits and why hiring a young person may be the most practical AI strategy available to a 10-person firm right now.

The Azets Barometer told us something interesting. Split almost down the middle. 46% of SMEs pessimistic. 43% optimistic. Donald Boyd has been advising SME businesses for over 30 years and says the data reflects reality. It depends on the business. It depends on the owner. And right now, the average sentiment is uncertain. In this episode of Fresh Perspectives, Rob Brown talks with Donald Boyd, UK Head of Growth at Azets, about the real mood inside UK businesses as we reach the middle of 2026. Donald draws on direct client conversations, not surveys, to explain what is happening on the ground. Labour costs are the number one pressure. Margins are tightening. And a chunk of the SME market is, in his words, in recession. Donald and Rob cover what separates the businesses navigating this from the ones that will not make it through, why the 13-week cash flow is the single most practical tool most SMEs still are not using and what good advisory looks like when a business owner is running out of runway. The message is direct. If you are running your business off a bank statement, you need to have a serious conversation with your advisors.

Most business owners think about funding when they need it. By that point, their options have already narrowed. Whether you are investing in technology, expanding into new markets, making an acquisition or just funding the next stage of growth, the question of how to finance it is one of the most consequential decisions a business makes. Get it right and your capital structure works for you. Get it wrong and it works against you. In this episode of Fresh Perspectives, Rob Brown is joined by two Azets specialists: Mark Barrie, UK Head of Debt Advisory, and Lee Humble, UK Head of Corporate Finance. Together they break down the real difference between debt and equity, what each brings beyond the money itself and the misconceptions that cost business owners flexibility and options. Mark and Lee cover how lenders are assessing opportunities in the current market, the mistakes businesses make when they raise finance, and why choosing on price alone is one of the most expensive decisions you can make. The fresh take from both is clear: give yourself time, give yourself options and take advice from people who do this every day. Connect with Mark Barrie on LinkedIn.

One business owner had stacked so many loans that his monthly repayments hit £35,000. He was profitable. He was thinking about selling up because the debt had become unbearable. Mark Barrie's team reviewed his position, went to market and consolidated everything into a single facility. Monthly repayments dropped to under £10,000. He took the business off the market. That story sits at the heart of this episode. In this episode of Fresh Perspectives, Rob Brown talks with Mark Barrie, Head of Debt Advisory at Azets, about what financial headroom actually means in practice, how to tell if yours is reducing and what the first steps look like for a business that wants to get ahead of its funding position before it becomes a problem. Mark brings 20 years of banking experience alongside his work at Azets and has a direct, practical view of where businesses go wrong and what good looks like. Mark and Rob cover the warning signs that a business should review its funding, why the cash flow forecast is the most important document most businesses are not producing properly, what the risks of leaving refinancing too late actually are and what good financial headroom looks like in the current environment. The Fresh Take lands simply: build a cash flow forecast. It sounds basic. Most businesses still are not doing it properly.

There's no lost and found for your royalties. If you don't claim them, they don't come looking for you, and depending on where the money's sitting, you may only have a few years before it's gone for good.   This week we kick off a new thread inside our Rising Tide miniseries: the eight revenue multipliers in music. We're starting with revenue recovery, the money that's already been earned but never made it back to the artists, songwriters, and producers who are owed it. We talk to three companies attacking this problem from three different angles.   Jason Feinberg, who leads Kosign at Kobalt Music, breaks down why revenue recovery is such a persistent problem in the first place, the fundamentals every artist needs to register (PRO, MLC, SoundExchange), and why an hour spent getting your metadata in order might be the most profitable hour of your career. Jeff Ponchick, co-founder and CEO of Mogul, explains how his company built something like "the Plaid of the music industry," centralizing royalty data across every platform an artist is owed money from, and why up to 50% of artist catalogs are registered incorrectly without anyone realizing it. Rob Brown, chief revenue officer at mprs, zooms into a corner of revenue recovery almost nobody talks about: the master points owed to producers, mixers, engineers, and top line songwriters, and how something as small as an unsigned letter of direction can freeze a producer's income entirely.   If you're a music tech company solving problems like these, come demo on the beach and network with the ecosystem at the Music Tectonics Conference, October 27 to 29 in Santa Monica.   The Music Tectonics podcast goes beneath the surface of the music industry to explore how technology is changing the way business gets done.

Radio's relationship with its audience has fundamentally shifted, and the industry's summer of mass layoffs at Cumulus, iHeart, Rogers, Odyssey, and Corus has exposed a deeper crisis than spreadsheets can solve. I basically recap the absurdity of how radio companies built their talent's social media followings only to sever connections abruptly, freeing listeners to explore alternatives. While industry data still shows radio leading in car listening and ad delivery, the reality on the ground tells a different story: the best moments on any station come from people and personalities, not songs or commercials. And going forward, radio is going to have to do live on some rented ground.Discussed: - Why attention, participation, community, and trust have replaced traditional broadcast ratings as the new flywheel- How algorithms are prioritizing local content just as radio stations abandon local programming- The financial viability of AM radio ownership and why long-form content must be repurposed across multiple platforms- What podcasters are getting right about monetization that radio continues to fumblePromised in the show notes: The Bobby Bones prank story from 2004The Broadcast Dialogue podcast with Connie Thiessen, Matt Caine, and Rob Brown about buying and running an AM stationLamont Hollywood's Facebook post about being cut from 107.7 The BoneNEW!

What if you could step away from your family business without walking away from everything you've built? What if your exit strategy could protect your people, preserve your culture, and secure your legacy for generations to come? "I've spent decades building this business. How do I leave without losing it?" "I don't want to sell to a buyer who will change everything we've worked for." "Is there a way to retire while keeping our employees and company values intact?" "How do I create an exit plan that benefits both my family and my team?" This conversation gives you the answer. In this episode of The Family Biz Show, host Michael Palumbos sits down with Tracy Till, former Chairman and co-founder of Butler Till, and Rob Brown, a nationally recognized ESOP attorney, to explore how Employee Stock Ownership Plans (ESOPs) can provide an alternative path for family business owners preparing for succession or retirement. Rather than viewing an exit as the end of the business, they explain how an ESOP can become a strategy for preserving company culture, rewarding loyal employees, and creating a lasting legacy. The discussion also highlights why trust, leadership development, and intentional succession planning are essential long before ownership changes hands. Meet the Guests Tracy Till is the former Chairman and co-founder of Butler Till, the Rochester-based marketing and communications firm that successfully transitioned to 100% employee ownership. Today, she serves on corporate and nonprofit boards and helps private companies strengthen governance and strategic leadership. Rob Brown is a nationally recognized attorney focused exclusively on employee ownership and ESOPs. For decades, he has advised closely held and family-owned businesses on succession planning, ownership transitions, and ESOP implementation across the United States. Together, they share practical insights from both the legal and leadership perspectives of employee ownership. Why This Episode Matters This conversation goes beyond the technical aspects of ESOPs. You'll discover why the strongest succession plans begin with culture, how trust creates future leaders, why founders often struggle to let go, and what family business owners should consider before choosing an exit strategy. The episode also explores the financial advantages of ESOPs, the importance of independent boards, and why preserving a company's mission can be just as valuable as maximizing the sale price. In This Episode, You'll Learn: Why an ESOP may be the right exit strategy for preserving your family business legacy. How employee ownership can strengthen culture, retention, and long-term growth. Why trust and leadership development are critical before any ownership transition. How boards of directors help family businesses navigate succession and strategic growth. What founders should consider emotionally and financially before stepping away. How ESOPs compare with selling to outside buyers or strategic acquirers. Why protecting your people can become one of the greatest measures of business success. Whether you're beginning to think about succession, evaluating exit strategies, or looking for ways to preserve the values your family business was built on, this episode offers practical guidance and real-world experience from leaders who have successfully navigated the journey. Listen now and discover how thoughtful succession planning can help you exit your business without losing the legacy you've worked so hard to build.

Our near-constant exposure to electromagnetic fields and microwave radiation from cell phones, Wi-Fi, and countless connected devices is quietly taking a toll on our health. This week on Green Street, Patti and Doug talk about the impact of warming rivers on nuclear power plants, the ability of scientists to accurately determine the impacts of climate change, and how reducing your exposure to plastic also reduces harmful chemicals in your body. Then radiologist Dr. Rob Brown talks about his new book, Unplug: A Radiologist Explores the Damage Caused by Electropollution and How You Can Prevent It, and how chronic exposure disrupts metabolism, weakens the immune system, and may contribute to anxiety, depression and aggression in today's society.

Dr. Rob Brown spent over thirty five years as a diagnostic radiologist before becoming one of the most credible medical voices asking what wireless technology is actually doing to our bodies. In this conversation he and R dig past the attention debate into the hardware itself: the invisible energy your phone, router, and the antenna down the block are pushing into the room around you. His new book, Unplug, is out now. Rob explains why non ionizing radiation is not as harmless as physicists long claimed, shares the factory chicken analogy that explains why constant exposure leaves you depleted, and pulls apart the SAR safety rating as a red herring that measures only heat. The takeaway is practical: you cannot reach zero exposure, so build a clean, device-free sleep sanctuary where your body finally gets to recover. Key Insights Magnetic fields and EMFs interact with living biology. Rob's own knee healed under magnets, which first convinced him energy can affect tissue, for better and for worse. Non ionizing radiation can still cause harm. Metal ions and porphyrins in living cells make oxidative stress and membrane depolarization possible, even without ionization. The factory chicken model explains depletion, not disease. Constant exposure does not have to cause cancer to wear the body down. The SAR rating is a red herring. It only captures the heating effect and ignores stochastic, whole-body harm. Zero EMF is not the goal. A clean sleep environment is. Build a sleep sanctuary. Quick wins: phone out of the bedroom and on airplane mode, router off at night, no electronics where you sleep, and stop carrying your phone in your pocket. Even health devices leak signal. Choose the older plain-tube CPAP and skip the wireless data link. Change is more likely to come from market demand than regulation, so an informed public that asks for safer products is the real lever.
