Podcasts about Robert Johnson

BioDeri Tyton is an Award-Winning Writer/Producer/Director, who grew up in Chicago enjoyingKung Fu, comedy, and action movies. As a very imaginative child growing up, he became interested in how films were made, but it wasn't until 1999 when he was invited to P.A. on an independent film set, which prompted him to write the screenplay, TOOT'S & BLOW'S, in 2001. As a self-taught filmmaker, Deri produced three critically sought-out films: Welcome To The Southside, The Party Line, and Love Bones. In each of these films, Deri deals with personal themes of Love & Sacrifice. While each film has had distribution, it was his latest independent film, FINDING FOREVER IN LOVE (2015), that has pushed his writing, directing, and producing endeavors to new heights with a distribution deal at Robert Johnson's streaming channel, Urban Movie Channel. He has since gone on to co-write web series, independent films, and television series, as well as produce a screenwriter's book entitled, The Film Mechanic: The Process to Writing A Screenplay That Works. He holds a Bachelor of Arts in Liberal Arts from Chicago State University and a Master of Fine Arts in Creative Writing (Class Salutatorian) from Full Sail University. As a 2017 and 2018 Fulton County Arts & Culture grant recipient in Atlanta, GA, he began The Film Mechanic Screenwriting Class which teaches writers the process and business of screenwriting. Deri's truest goal is to tell universal stories through his experiences of being Black in America.BioDr. India Dorsey Gaston, Ph.D., artistically known as Indi Tyton, is an internationalsinger-songwriter, filmmaker, educator, and entrepreneur whose career bridges the creative andbusiness sides of the entertainment industry.

El programa "La noche de Arjona" explora misterios del arte. La Venus de Milo pierde sus brazos en una pelea durante su transporte. El David de Miguel Ángel muestra proporciones incorrectas para la perspectiva y carece de circuncisión, desafiando el canon judío. Gaudí y la Sagrada Familia resaltan por la excentricidad del arquitecto, su inspiración natural y la destrucción de los planos originales, con la obra aún en construcción. Beethoven, sordo, compone su Novena Sinfonía usando cuadernos de conversación y vibraciones; en su emotivo estreno, no escucha la ovación. La leyenda de Robert Johnson, quien pacta con el diablo para dominar la guitarra, se revela como práctica intensa y marketing; muere envenenado por un marido celoso. Las dudas sobre la autoría de Shakespeare surgen por la falta de información y el prejuicio social, que impiden creer que un hombre humilde las escribiera. El Manuscrito Voynich, un libro del siglo XV con idioma y dibujos indescifrables, sigue siendo un ...

Ci sono uomini che portano dentro di loro un fardello enorme, ma mai come quello che portava Robert Johnson.

"The New York Times released their 30 Greatest Living American Songwriters list a short while ago. I know online lists usually have some click bait to start conversation but this list was overtly egregious. Not for who was on it. It was who was left off. We will go over the list and play some artists that should have been on there."

"It is no secret that music contracts can be rather brutal on artists. Often the stories focus on not getting paid but there is also the interesting idea of a lawsuit ordering a musician to fill his or her contract and record what we are calling a court ordered album. We have multiple examples plus one where the band was paid NOT to record an album."

"Sony Music Publishing confirmed an agreement to acquire Blackstone's Recognition Music Group catalog for $3.5 billion. The Red Hot Chili Peppers just sold their catalog for $300 million. Other Funds are raising billions to start buying. These buyers are called Music Rights Funds. I became interested in how these Funds actually made money. How does one invest and can I sell my own music. I have the answers for you."

"Many summer tours are having to scale back or cancel altogether. The nickname given to this practice is Blue Dot Fever. It is named after the blue dots that appear on unsold seats when a ticket buyer uses Ticketmaster. It has become indicative of a larger societal and financial concern that is leading to people not being able to attend live music. We will explain."

"This is a requested topic from a friend. He wondered if we had ever discussed steel drums. We had not so we did a show. We have some history and some discussion of tuning and prices. There are also a lot of songs that use the steel drum you may not have noticed before."

On this week's episode of The Learning Curve, co-hosts Alisha Searcy of the Center for Strong Public Schools and Mary Tamer of MassPotential speak with Rachel Canter, Director of Education Policy for the Progressive Policy Institute's Reinventing America's Schools project and founder of Mississippi First, about Mississippi's remarkable rise in K–12 student achievement and the policy reforms that helped drive it. Drawing on her experience as a former Teach For America teacher and longtime education advocate, Canter reflects on the leadership, accountability, and strategic reforms that helped Mississippi transform from one of the nation's lowest-performing states to one of its fastest-improving on the National Assessment of Educational Progress. She discusses the science of reading, the debate between phonics and whole language instruction, and what schools must do to rebuild academic rigor in literacy, STEM, and civics. Canter also explores the importance of exposing students to great literature and roots music from William Faulkner and Delta bluesmen like Robert Johnson, drawing on Mississippi's rich cultural legacy, and reflects on how lessons from Civil Rights era figures, including Emmett Till and Fannie Lou Hamer, can strengthen civics education today. She concludes by sharing policy recommendations for governors, legislators, educators, and parents seeking dramatic and lasting improvements in student outcomes nationwide.

House Democratic Leader Robert Johnson of Natchez says that as states across the nation become embroiled over racial and partisan gerrymandering of voting districts, he believes now they'll know "what it's like to be in Mississippi" with its long struggles with voting rights and drawing district lines. What other states see as unprecedented political battle, Johnson said, "We call Tuesday."

"On April 16 2026 A federal jury in Manhattan found that Ticketmaster and its parent company Live Nation have been acting as a monopoly. The case is wide ranging involving 33 states and the District of Columbia. Live Nation will not appeal any of the verdicts. We will discuss what is a monopoly and what these decisions could mean for the future."

In this deep-dive analysis of Season 5, Episode 24, Megan and Isaac explore the Crossroads not just as an intersection, but as a "battery pack" for high-strangeness where the veil between worlds is thinnest. The episode bridges ancient history and modern experience, traveling from the triple-way shrines of Hecate and the gatekeeping role of Papa Legba to a critical re-examination of Robert Johnson's legendary "deal with the devil." By blending academic research with "spiritual physics," the discussion explores why natural dirt paths serve as potent energy access points for the Stone Tape Theory while modern infrastructure often acts as a physical blockage to the metaphysical.The narrative shifts into intense field reports from their local North Carolina investigations, detailing the discovery of ritualistic traps and the harrowing auditory encounters that guard these active sites. As the team recount their time at the O House and the Park, they reveal startling evidence of entities that linger in these liminal spaces, including a localized energy phenomenon that challenges our understanding of the relationship between the occult and the extraterrestrial. Ultimately, the episode serves as a haunting reminder that the crossroads represent a point of no return, a space where the paths of the living and the dead inevitably collide.

Nico Young joins Jonathan Gault for a deep dive into his 2026 season outlook. The adidas-sponsored distance star reflects on a heartbreaking US indoor final where he missed the world team by a hundredth of a second, and reveals he's added a third workout per week to his training. Young announces a loaded European Diamond League slate, a 1500 in Stockholm, back-to-back 5Ks in Oslo and Paris, before making his road debut at the Peachtree Road Race on July 4th, where he'll try to become the first American winner (outside of years it served as the US Championships) since Ed Eyestone in 1991. He says he views the Ultimate World Championships like a major global championship and plans to peak for it, and considers himself the American outdoor 5K record holder at 12:45.

"Just a bit of fun this week. Nobody is perfect so it is pretty easy to hear mistakes in recorded music. Here are some of the big ones in rock and hopefully some you did not know. Once you hear them, you cannot unhear them."
