The story of the Titanic's sinking is a tragic tale to say the least. But it is one that has entranced the minds of so many.

Leyla McCalla has long been one of the most under-celebrated folksingers working these days. Her albums have all been deep dives into important subject matter, exploring the human experience through the confluence of poetry and melody in ways few artists are capable of. As a multi-instrumentalist, she seems to follow her instruments into unexpected journeys. … Continued
Caroline Spence didn't actually move to Nashville to make it as a songwriter—that came later. But when she did start playing out around town, her beautiful, misleadingly simple songwriting caught on quickly.

Her melodies feel like they've always been around, and the relationship between her singing voice and her pen seems flawlessly connected.

Editor's note: Basic Folk is pleased to introduce our listeners to one of our favorite podcasts by sharing an episode in our feed! Why We Write features conversations between folk music reporter Kim Ruehl and a hand-picked array of great songwriters, presented by Folk Alley.So much goes into a song—the songwriter's intimate life, their upbringing, their worldview, what they see going on in the world. What moves them to put pen to paper? How do they do it? When, where, and why? Ruehl explores all of this with some of the finest songwriters working these days—old favorites, up-and-comers, and everything in between.Kim is one of my favorite music writers and (frankly) one of my favorite people. Her laid back demeanor is easy to vibe with and does well for her scholarly approach. Kim is basically a folk-brainiac and cannot be stopped. I first met her while she was the editor in chief at No Depression. She's since gone on to publish her first book A Singing Army: Zilphia Horton and the Highlander Folk School. A former singer/songwriter herself, Kim not only brings her big writer's brain and cool attitude into these conversations, but she has a unique musician's perspective that her guests can feel and relate to.Basic Folk is pleased to share Kim's interview with Rosanne Cash (This episode was originally published on June 9, 2021). There is much that could be said about Rosanne Cash's number-one hits and Grammy awards, her family legacy and her celebrity. But whether she's writing songs, articles, essays, or books, Cash is always a writer's writer.She has a knack for catchy, chorus-worthy turn of phrase, sure, but she also has a generally superb literary sensibility. Thus, the opportunity to discuss writing with her for this episode of Why We Write was a bit of a no-brainer.One of the things that strikes me most about Cash's songwriting is the way she sets her songs and stories very strongly in a specific place. So, we began our conversation with the relationship between story and place. Press play and come along for the ride.Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brands
No serious consideration of values can ignore the ideas and philosophy of Friedrich Nietzsche, whose writing in the late nineteenth century had a seismic impact on the twentieth century, and continues its enduring influence today. Dr. Martin Ruehl of Cambridge University grew up with the influence of Nietzsche's Thus Spoke Zarathustra, finding himself bewitched by a copy of the war edition of the book (kriegsausgabe) that was taken into WWI by his grandfather and then into WWII by his father. But Ruehl didn't recognise the version of Nietzsche that was presented to him in academia and has since made it his mission to bring the bloody, dangerous, anti-liberal Nietzsche back into consciousness. Tune in for a masterclass on the philosophy and significance of Friedrich Nietzsche. (Episode recorded on 16th February 2022.)
Rod Picott has been a Nashville workhorse songwriter for years, across more than a dozen albums. His songwriting is thick in narrative wisdom and character-driven stories. But he's not just a songwriter—he's also published two poetry books and has been working on a novel. With his latest album nigh (Paper Hearts and Broken Arrows), we got into how the pandemic affected his songwriting process, his long-standing songwriter friendship with Slaid Cleaves, what he loves about Adele, and so much more.
Allison Russell has been writing incredible folk-rooted songs for around 20 years with her bands Po' Girl, Birds of Chicago, and Our Native Daughters. But it was her solo debut in 2021, Outside Child, that finally broke through and gained her a taller platform and a wider audience. Coming up on this year's Grammy Awards, where Russell is nominated in three categories—Best American Roots Performance, Best American Roots Song, and Best Americana Album—we decided to share a special Grammy edition of the Why We Write podcast. This conversation about songwriting, and all the parts of life that touch and influence it, was recorded at the end of 2021. Russell's internet was interrupted, so she had to run to a nearby coffee shop for the recording, which explains some of the background noise. In a way, the bustle around her as she talks about what inspires her incredible songwriting, makes sense. Much bustle has been swirling around her for the past year. Whether or not she takes home Grammy Awards, Outside Child was widely lauded as one of the best recordings of last year, and we look forward to what else she has to bring over the next 20 years. So press play an enjoy this episode of Why We Write with Allison Russell.
Carrie Ann Hearst and Michael Trent have been writing and making music together for about decade. They've also been living together, touring together, raising kids together, and running a festival together near their home in Charleston, South Carolina. I was curious how this has affected the evolution of their songwriting. On this episode of 'Why We Write,' we got into that, the process of making their new album, 'Manticore,' and so much more.
It has been 56 years since Janis Ian released her debut song, “Society's Child,” when she was just 15 years old. She has long since weathered every evolution of the music industry, written innumerable songs, plus a memoir and a novel she's been working on. To boot, Ian is a frequent and beloved songwriting instructor. So it was with great relish that we joined her on Zoom for an in-depth discussion on writing. From her office in Florida, she dug into process, form, and why no topic is off-limits for a song.
Aoife O'Donovan calls herself a singer first, songwriter second. And yet, when you tune into her songwriting, she takes you places that few songwriters dare to go. She is a remarkably creative, singular artist and her latest album, Age of Apathy, is a testament to her ability to dive into all the dark corners of … Continued
Ask any songwriter working these days about Anaïs Mitchell's songwriting and their eyes go starry. Many go straight to the through-line emotional insight of her album, Young Man in America. Most will gush about the decade-or-more she spent writing a Tony-winning Broadway musical (Hadestown) steeped in some convergence of folk balladry, New Orleans second line, … Continued
Eliza Gilkyson has been making records for more than 50 years, and has covered everything from love and longing to political and topical songwriting. Her latest, 'Songs From the River Wind', has more of an old-West vibe as she takes a second look at some of the songs her father, Terry Gilkyson, wrote and recorded, and updates them from her own perspective. This kind of collaboration across time is not unfamiliar to folkies, but most songwriters who decide to rewrite old ballads will typically scrap all the lyrics and write them anew. Gilkyson, instead, decided to cowrite with her late father and present these adaptations alongside plenty of new originals. The result is a creative commentary on the legacies we leave and how the people who pick them up will do with them what they will. No better songwriter to do that than Eliza Gilkyson—the latest guest on 'Why We Write with Kim Ruehl.'
Woody Guthrie has been gone for more than a half-century, but he remains one of the most prolific songwriters in American music history. Now, a new book has been released from his daughter Nora Guthrie, titled 'Woody Guthrie: Songs and Art, Words and Wisdom.' It presents a full, well-rounded view of Woody's songwriting as well as everything else he created. In the process of taking in his various paintings, drawings, journal entries, lists, poems, and so on, one can come to understand the way America's most iconic folksinger lived in the world and processed what he saw and felt. Nora even included a chapter of Woody's suggestions about how to write songs. We got into all of this and more in a recent discussion for the latest episode of 'Why We Write with Kim Ruehl.'
Singer-songwriter Katie Pruitt grew up attending Catholic school and exploring musical theater—'Wicked' was a favorite. And though those two facts may seem incongruous to some who turn on her 2019 debut, 'Expectations,' it makes some sense that the songwriter who wrote a remarkable song like “Normal” was the same person who listened over and over to “Defying Gravity” once upon a time. Indeed, if someone is going to lean into the feeling of being an outsider in their songwriting, there is no deeper cave to mine than Broadway and country music. So I was interested to talk to Pruitt about the intersection of all these things, and how she has found a way to navigate it all through her remarkably honest, daring songwriting while still in her 20s.
by Kim Ruehl (@kimruehl), Folk Alley Sunny War came of age hopping trains and busking around Los Angeles. She played in a punk band even as she was a fan of folk-blues artists from a century ago. All of these elements swirl together in her songwriting, which is unpretentiously poetic, clear and concise, catchy but remarkably simple. Across her handful of albums, her songwriting has depicted the remarkable growth and evolution of a songwriter with impeccable instincts, and her latest effort, Simple Syrup, is another impressive step on that journey. When we spoke for the Why We Write podcast, Sunny War was in the process of recording the album, happy to ruminate on her unfolding career, her experiences with ayahuasca, and the way a year of quarantine was impacting her creative process.

Serving apartment clients better with better marketing, education, and expertise with Lauren Ruehl
In this VETgirl online veterinary continuing education podcast, we discuss aortic thrombi (ATh) in dogs. If you are like this VETgirl, when you hear of an aortic thrombus your mind may jump to the dreaded feline cardiac case that presents yowling in distress from an aortic thromboembolism (ATE) and giving heart palpitations to everyone on your staff. In fact, you may be trying to remember if you have ever managed a canine patient with an ATh. While small animal clinicians manage many types of thromboembolic diseases, the presence of a true canine ATh is not a commonly recognized complication in this VETgirl's experience. Recently a very helpful consensus on antithrombotic use was published, yet there are relatively few large-scale studies evaluating canine ATh in the veterinary literature (deLaforcade). Therefore in this study by Ruehl et al, the authors sought to expand upon this area, and they describe risk factors, treatments, and outcome in a cohort of dogs diagnosed with ATh.

Jack Slater 4 is here, it's sure to be the hit movie of 1993, and Danny (Austin O'Brien) has his a ticket to be the first to see it. Only his ticket takes him inside the movie where he can be a part of the action with his on screen hero. Last Action Hero (1993) is a self-aware, meta-action, comedy film starring Arnold Schwarzenegger that challenges the action movie tropes of the late 80's and early 90's. It has so many cameos and easter eggs that only Ready Player One can beat the sheer volume of them. This week Invasion of the Remake updates Last Action Hero to modern action movie standards adding new tropes that proliferate the modern action film. Join us as we remake Last Action Hero!

Ready For Takeoff - Turn Your Aviation Passion Into A Career
Michelle “Sonic” Ruehl is an Air Force Instructor Pilot with over fifteen years of service. She flew four different aircraft and amassed over 2000 hours, including 807 combat hours in Afghanistan, providing real-time airborne targeting data to Special Operations forces. While in Afghanistan, she also volunteered to teach English to local school girls as well as a group of young Afghan men studying Business. For her service, she earned seven Air Medals, two Aerial Achievement Medals and a special award for volunteer work, the Military Outstanding Volunteer Service Medal. After her last deployment, Sonic returned to the U.S. Air Force Academy (class of ’03) to teach Rhetoric and Composition in the Department of English and Fine Arts. She taught courses in Writing and Public Speaking. When she was not in the classroom, she was the theater director, equestrian team mentor and worked down at the airfield teaching cadets how to fly the T-53 in the Air Force Academy’s Powered Flight Program. She found it incredibly rewarding to help the next generation of officers reach their dream of becoming military aviators. Sonic brings 15 years of rhetoric, communication, and debriefing skills to the Afterburner team. She earned her M.A. in Teaching Writing and Rhetoric from the University of Colorado and traveled to Ghana where she taught civic leaders how to develop community improvement plans. In Tanzania, she taught children how to write music. In Nepal, she taught English to Tibetan refugees at a Buddhist monastery. She also worked as a speechwriter for a three-star general, preparing her for public engagements and developing strategic corporate messages for dissemination to 7000 personnel. Additionally, at the request of the Secretary of the Air Force Heather Wilson, she designed and taught a communication course to the Air Force headquarters staff at the Pentagon. To honor fallen military colleagues, Sonic founded Parwana LEADership Legacy, a 501c3 non-profit organization whose mission is to provide leadership camps to veterans and their families to enhance empathy, communication, and teamwork so youth can then use these concepts to lead others. Through these programs, Sonic uses her M.A. in Psychology, as well as her certification as an Equine Specialist in Mental Health and Learning (ESMHL) to teach children, veterans, and survivors of trauma how to heal from their experiences and become empowered leaders in their community. Sonic excels at helping teams become their best by aligning their communication processes with their strategic goals, so she was thrilled to join the Afterburner team in 2018! She is currently serving in the Air Force Reserves for the 302nd Airlift Wing at Peterson Air Force Base. She lives in Colorado with her husband, who flies for a major airline, and their baby girl.
Michelle “Sonic” Ruehl was flying combat missions at night and teaching English to the men in the Afghan village that she was protecting by day. At first, the men rejected her as an instructor and warrior based on her gender, but she used music in a war zone to reach beyond the cultural barriers of prejudice that separated them. It's a story you'll have to hear to believe.
When you were 12, did you ever wish you were bigger? And did you also ever wish to make your mom think you got kidnapped and that a 30-something brash woman with smoker's breath would have sex with you while also pretending to be your new mommy? If so, then the 1988 Penny Marshall movie "Big" starring Tom Hanks is right up your alley. Sure, the sickly sweet score, oversized piano dancing, cushy job at a toy company, and silly-string fights make this film feel like a light-hearted age-swap romp, but when you actually look at what this movie is about, it feels more like a horror movie. Hanks plays Josh Baskin, a kid who made a wish on a racist fortune teller machine and then aged about 20 years overnight. He's obsessed with little kid toys even though he's weeks away from turning 13, and he doesn't seem to mind pretending to be his own kidnapper to his distraught mother faster than he can say, "I'm technically getting molested by my co-worker!" Elizabeth Perkins plays Susan Lawrence, Josh's said jaded, workaholic, man-eating, 30-something co-worker who falls for a man with the mind of a 12-year-old boy and doesn't seem all that fazed when she finds out he actually is 12 years old. Robert Loggia plays Mr. MacMillan, the aloof owner of the toy company Josh quickly climbs the ladder of, whose entire character is to pretend that every innocent and dumb thing that comes out of Josh's mouth is somehow insightful and refreshing even when they're not. To round out the cast, we have John Heard (the dad from "Home Alone") as Hank's one-sided rival, Mercedes Ruehl as Josh's super sad mother, and Jared Rushton (one of the shrunken kids in "Honey, I Shrunk the Kids") as Josh's wily best friend, Billy Kopecki. Join us discuss all the 26 minutes of weird scenes that were added to the "extended cut" of this movie, wonder why the police don't seem to care much that the young Josh is missing, and question how Tom Hanks' version of Josh is able to get a bank account and rent an expensive apartment without even knowing his own social security number.
