Hi, we have a lot to talk about. Yasi shares how she's been, and appreciates everyone's kind words and gifts.
As we hit the first quarter of the century, let's bring things back to the early aughts. Rob Harvilla joins us to discuss the new season of his podcast, 60 Songs that Explain the '90s: The 2000s. We'll talk about the pivotal songs of the decade, from Amy Winehouse to 50 Cent, and take calls about what you think were some of the most important songs of that decade.
We're wrapping up 2024 by offering New Year's resolutions for writers inspired by advice offered this year by some of Page Count's guest authors: Ross Gay, Claire McMillan, Alison Stine, Jacqueline Woodson, Hanif Abdurraqib, Brian Broome, Sara Moore Wagner, Chiquita Mullins Lee, Leah Stewart, Rob Harvilla, Libby Kay, David Hassler, and Alex Rowland. From writing in new places to finding inspiration, letting go of perfection, making new writing friends, and beyond, these twelve resolutions can help writers start 2025 on a positive and productive note. 12 Resolutions for Writers: Let go of perfection. (Page Count Live: Trash & Delight with Ross Gay & Alison Stine) Protect your in-progress writing as necessary. (Alchemy of Writing with Claire McMillan) Don't be precious about where you write—and make good use of the available time you have to work, no matter how limited. (Page Count Live: Trash & Delight with Ross Gay & Alison Stine) Don't let a fixation on awards, publications, or recognition affect your writing process. (Page Count Live with Hanif Abdurraqib & Jacqueline Woodson) Write outside of yourself and consider other perspectives—as well as the reader's experience. (Cringe & Controversy with Brian Broome) Leave your writing desk to go out into the world to research and experience new things. (Exploring the Myth of Annie Oakley with Sara Moore Wagner) Don't put pressure on yourself to publish on a certain timeline. (Carving a Story with Chiquita Mullins Lee & Carmella Van Vleet) When the going gets tough, remember the beneficial parts of the writing life. (At the Sewanee Writers' Conference with Leah Stewart) Try not to take yourself so seriously, and don't beat yourself up if you make a mistake. (Be a Cockroach at the Columbus Book Festival) Make a new writing friend. (Be a Cockroach at the Columbus Book Festival) Find inspiration in your daily life. (40 Years of Poetry with David Hassler) Be resilient in your writing life. Better yet, be unkillable, like a cockroach.

By 1994, grunge had waned and Madchester had set the table for the next massive wave of British music—the UK was ready for its next big rock band to refocus the global lens back on ol' Blighty. That's when Oasis popped onto the scene fully formed and captured the mantle with their iconic haircuts, perfect clothes, explosive feuds, and of course, their absolute bangers. Join along as Yasi Salek and her Wonderwall, The Ringer's Rob Harvilla, ask each other: where were you while Oasis was getting high? In this part one of two, we cover everything between the band's formation and what led up to the legendary Britpop chart battle.

Welcome back to State of Amorica! This week, David and Ian chat about some Crowes current events before turning the reigns over to Producer Jason, who sat down for a great chat with Rob Harvilla of the 60 Songs That Explain the 90s podcast and companion book. You don't want to miss it!
Rob Harvilla in conversation with David Eastaugh https://robharvilla.com/ The 1990s were a chaotic and gritty and utterly magical time for music, a confounding barrage of genres and lifestyles and superstars, from grunge to hip-hop, from sumptuous R&B to rambunctious ska-punk, from Axl to Kurt to Missy to Santana to Tupac to Britney. In 60 SONGS THAT EXPLAIN THE '90s, Ringer music critic Rob Harvilla reimagines all the earwormy, iconic hits Gen Xers pine for with vivid historical storytelling, sharp critical analysis, rampant loopiness, and wryly personal ruminations on the most bizarre, joyous, and inescapable songs from a decade we both regret entirely and miss desperately.

Ringer music critic and host of 60 Songs That Explain the '90s Rob Harvilla returns to Pop Pantheon to discuss one of the most derided – and successful – pop acts of the 21st Century, The Black Eyed Peas. Louie and Rob trace the group's roots as an optimistic, politically progressive “conscious rap” crew, starting with their first two pre-Fergie records, 1998's Behind The Front and 2000's Bridging the Gap. Then they tackle the Peas' reinvention as a garish, craven, operatically tacky band peddling radio pop on 2003's Elephunk and their doubling down on big-tent pop maximalism on 2005's Monkey Business. Next, Louie and Rob chart the Peas' ride into the rising EDM wave on 200's The E.N.D., their break-up, re-assembly and post-Fergie output.

Let's get nostalgic! The Ringer's Rob Harvilla joins the podcast to discuss his book and podcast 60 Songs That Explain the 90s. Need I say more? Come listen!Buy 60 Songs That Explain the 90sListen to the 60 Songs That Explain the 90s PodcastSupport the show
Rob Harvilla is the host / author of 60 Songs That Explain the '90s and a senior staff writer at The Ringer; he's been a professional rock critic for 20-plus years with stops at the Village Voice, SPIN, Deadspin, and various other alt-weeklies that generally no longer exist. Based out of Columbus, OH- he is one of my personal favorite podcasters and it was nothing short of a pleasure having him on the show.
Rob Harvilla is the host of the hit podcast 60 Songs That Explain the 90s and author of a book of the exact same name. But before he was regaling his listeners with his thoughts on music of that era, Rob was living in that era and making music of his own. Or rather, making music of somebody else's. You see, Sleepyheads, Mr. Harvilla was an open mic musical performer in his college days, in the 90's, in Ohio. And he's going to take you on a music-free tour of the thinking behind his performances back then. Learn the songs that were right in his vocal range as well as the ones well beyond his range that he attempted to sing. Learn how the audience could have been spared this entire phase of his life if he had just found a girl to go to the movies with him to see The Big Lebowski.Hey Sleepy Heads, is there anyone whose voice you'd like to drift off to, or do you have suggestions on things we could do to aid your slumber?

On this special holiday episode of Lipps Service, Scott sits down with music critic and 60 Songs That Explain The ‘90s podcast host Rob Harvilla and SPIN editorial director Daniel Kohn! Rob has been a professional music journalist for over 20 years, is currently a senior staff writer at The Ringer — and is a life-long ‘90s music fanatic. The three music geeks get into Rob's upbringing, his stint writing for SPIN in the mid-2000s, his growing up in Ohio and the state's music scene, and his podcast and new book of the same name. They also talk about Rob's detailed memory of the era, all three of their stories of first listening to “Smells Like Teen Spirit,” including some takes on some of the best bands, songs, and albums of the ‘90s — including Third Eye Blind, Pinkerton, “Wonderwall,” Nine Inch Nails, and Courtney Love. They also dive into what they miss about the pre-internet music era and its listening formats, debate if Die Hard is a Christmas movie, reminisce on the Tibetan Freedom Concerts, and, of course, they wrap up the conversation with some “Top 5s.” Tune in for a music-trivia-filled chat, some debate, and a very nostalgic episode with Rob Harvilla and Daniel Kohn!

Steven and Ian took a victory lap at the start of today's episode upon the news that Air is reuniting for a Moon Safari tour next year, right after they talked up the album in last week's Best Of 1998 episode. Can they take credit for actualizing this? Probably not. But they did anyway.From there, they talk about one of the weirdest album release days of 2023. First, you have the new Andre 3000 flute album, New Blue Sun (6:25). Second, you have Dolly Parton's 141-minute"rock" album, Rockstar (25:49). Steven and Ian didn't get the chance to hear these albums before recording, which is just as well. It might be better to just imagine what they sound like. After that, they discussed the apparent anointment of Boygenius by the entertainment business — they were just on Saturday Night Live and then they garnered more Grammy nominations (seven) than Taylor Swift. Is it safe to call them the biggest act in indie music? (35:00) In the mailbag, a listener asks about the new album announcement for The Smile and what this means for the future of Radiohead (48:06).In Recommendation Corner (56:01), Ian shouts out the new book about '90s music by Rob Harvilla and Steven recommends the great new live album by MJ Lenderman.New episodes of Indiecast drop every Friday.

Author of 60 Songs that Explain the 90s Rob Harvilla joins Drew and Roth to explain the 90s.
