In this inspiring episode of Reading With Your Kids, host Jed Doherty welcomes two incredible guests—author Bob McKinnon and illustrator Nikkolas Smith—to discuss their powerful new picture books that tackle gratitude, social change, and American history. Bob McKinnon joins the show to celebrate his latest book, America Gives Thanks. Bob shares how the book goes beyond the traditional Thanksgiving story, encouraging kids to be grateful not just for what they have, but for the ability to speak up and create positive change. He and Jed dive into the importance of respectful complaining, standing up for others, and modeling empathy for children. Bob also talks about the real-life inspirations behind his book, including his daughter's reflections on recent events and the stories of historical figures like Eleanor Roosevelt and Claiborne Pell. Listeners will love hearing about Bob's work at City College's Social Mobility Lab and his efforts to make knowledge and opportunity accessible to all. Next, Jed chats with Nikkolas Smith, the talented illustrator behind A Change Is Gonna Come, a picture book inspired by Sam Cooke's iconic civil rights anthem. Nikkolas describes his unique painterly style and the creative process behind bringing this emotional story to life. Together, they discuss the importance of addressing tough topics—like racism and social justice—in children's books, and how kids are often more ready for these conversations than adults think. Whether you're a parent, educator, or book lover, this episode is packed with insights on using children's literature to spark meaningful conversations about gratitude, history, and hope. Don't miss out on learning how picture books can empower the next generation to stand up, speak out, and make a difference!

Ronnie Schneider : "Out of Our Heads" From Sam Cooke, the Beatles, Rolling Stones US Tours, AltamontRolling Stones Insider Shares Memories and Rare Artifacts in New BookBack in the mid 1960s, overnight, a street-smart east coast kid went from being a college student to tour manager/moneyman and confidante to the Rolling Stones. The band didn't eat, drink, or even play unless Ronnie Schneider did his job, and this trusting relationship led to a wild adventure that would soon include the Beatles, Swinging London, and producing the mythical '69 Stones tour that culminated in the infamous show at Altamont. In his new book, Schneider gives readers an all access pass into the most intimate spaces, from hotels and boardrooms to private planes and backstage debauchery, crunching deals, babysitting the band, tasting wine, woman and dope – this is a front row seat to rock's last great era; jam-packed with rare artifacts and all the paperwork to back it up.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-opperman-report--1198501/support.

This week on Dem Vinyl Boyz, we throw on the toga, spike the punch, and crank up the chaos with the unforgettable soundtrack to National Lampoon’s Animal House (1978). One of the most iconic comedy films of all time, Animal House didn’t just redefine the college party movie—it also delivered a killer blend of ‘50s and ‘60s rock ’n’ roll that’s still blasting at frat houses today. The soundtrack features classics from Otis Day & The Knights (“Shout” and “Shama Lama Ding Dong”), Sam Cooke, Fats Domino, and the Kingsmen's raucous “Louie Louie,” all tied together by the chaotic, high-energy spirit of the Delta Tau Chi fraternity. Whether you're reliving your wild college days or hearing these tracks for the first time on wax, this episode is a nostalgic, riotous ride through a soundtrack that’s just as legendary as the film itself. And don’t forget: this episode kicks off our 8-week Soundtrack Summer series—spotlighting the most iconic movie soundtracks ever pressed to vinyl.

A lot of companies use positive-sounding cliches like “people over profit” and “work-life balance”. This sounds good, until somebody pulls the sales reports and says “we need more revenue and profits”. Then, the bottom line becomes the bottom line. This is sometimes served with a side of “you come to work to do work, change the world on your own time”.Now, picture a model where putting people over profit actually increases profits. Where work-life balance is not measured using number of hours worked or percentage of time in the office vs. working remotely. Being involved with a company that breaks the rules and norms for its industry, where coming to work to do work means doing your part to change the world.Christian Agulles has created all of these things in an industry known for squeezing its engineers like getting that last drop out of the toothpaste tube.Born and raised in College Point, a little town in Queens, Christian was a devout Catholic who went to church, went to Catholic school, and had the whole Catholic experience that, as he describes it, formed him and scarred him at the same time. His father, a police officer, was shot in the line of duty when Christian was seven. Even being able to retire on three-quarters pension, that money didn't go far supporting a family including Christian and his two younger brothers. His mother went to work in the school cafeteria so she could align her schedule with her sons, and cleaned houses on weekends. By example, she taught Christian to not be afraid to do hard things and to do them with grace.While starting his family, Christian spent the first 20 years of his career with an engineering firm that moved him around the country to open new offices. But over those 20 years, his employer was repeatedly acquired and evolved into company that focused more on acquisition, revenue, and EBIDA. It was right around this time he was recruited to join PAE. Everything worked out fine, yes? Well, Fine is a 4-Letter Word. Did his moment of realization come from a coaching session at PAE with Sandy Lindstrom, known for the “polishing the diamond” principle, where he found out they did not feel he was very good at delivering feedback? Was it discovering that his foundational values around doing hard work with grace could be merged with volunteerism, altruism, and contribution?In a moment, when I bring Christian on, he's going to guide us through his experience leading a Certified B-Corporation and how he's taken one of their metrics – utilization – and redefined it to build PAE into a company that has a net positive impact not only on its employees, but on society as a whole. If, up until now, you've seen your best-laid plans get trumped by “the bottom line” when bills are due, this could be what you need to hear. Christian's hype songs are "Bring It On Home To Me" by Sam Cooke and "Right to Be Wrong" by Joss Stone.Resources:Christian Agulles' website: https://www.pae-engineers.com/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/christian-j-agulles/Invitation from Lori:This episode is sponsored by Zen Rabbit.

Keyboardist: Gail NoblesStory by Gail NoblesPhoto: Public Domain Wikipedia Let us pause for a moment and reflect upon the majestic journey of Johnny Taylor! Yes, Johnny, that soulful sage, that philosopher of soul, who took us on a lyrical pilgrimage to a place that words can barely capture—Soul Heaven! Oh, it was more than just a dream; it was a divine rendezvous, a celestial concert where the echoes of greatness linger. He found himself immersed in a symphony of voices, in a gathering of luminaries—the Bar-Kay's, the smooth croon of Sam Cooke, the electric energy of Jr. Walker, and the captivating presence of Sammy Davis Jr. just to name a few! Each note danced through the air like a whisper, wrapping around his spirit and lifting him higher, higher into the realms of glory.And oh, what joy it must have brought him! He didn't want to wake up, dear friends. No, he was basking in a brilliance that transcended time—a communion with those who once cast their shadows over the stage of life, living legends reunited in harmony. Can you feel the rhythm of joy? Can you sense the light of love? In Soul Heaven, there is no darkness.But now, as the sun sets on Johnny Taylor's life, we find comfort in knowing that the Lord called him home. And perhaps, just perhaps, in that sacred moment, Johnny stepped into the very Dream that he sang about! He joined those celestial souls, those King's and Queen's of the past, in an everlasting place where the music never fades.Oh, Johnny, philosopher of soul, your echoes still! You took us to heights unknown, and though you are no longer here within our midst, the legacy you left lingers like a sweet melody in our hearts. Soul Heaven awaits us all.I'm Gail Nobles.

On this powerful new episode of Friends Talking Nerdy, Professor Aubrey and Tim the Nerd dive into the timeless and timely world of protest music. Together, they explore a curated list of some of the most iconic protest songs in music history—songs that have given voice to social movements, challenged injustice, and inspired generations to stand up and speak out. Tracks discussed include Bob Dylan's rallying cry The Times They Are A-Changin', the haunting reflection of Ohio by Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young, and Sam Cooke's soulful anthem of hope, A Change Is Gonna Come. They also dig into For What It's Worth by Buffalo Springfield, Which Side Are You On by Florence Reece, and Killing In The Name by Rage Against The Machine, among others, exploring the historical and political contexts that shaped each song and the emotional weight they still carry today. Listen to the playlist on YouTube.In the second half of the episode, Professor Aubrey shares a heartfelt and firsthand account of attending the No Kings protest in Portland, Oregon, on June 14th, 2025. She reflects on the power of peaceful demonstration, the courage of everyday people taking to the streets to demand justice, and why exercising our First Amendment rights is more important than ever. In a time of political unrest and deep uncertainty, this episode is a tribute to resistance, resilience, and the enduring impact of collective action.As always, we wish to thank Christopher Lazarek for his wonderful theme song.

#200 Broadcast 200 -Episode 193 - The Crooners - 20250621 - 3 in 1 = Sam Cooke by Jim Reeves

Leo Schumaker's Bluesland music podcast from June 19, 2025. I do a salute to Juneteenth's history/music. The artists included are Ruthie Foster, The Blind Boys of Alabama, Sam Cooke, Sly Stone, The Edwin Hawkins Singers, Jimi Hendrix, BB King, James Brown and more. 

In this childhood music memory, New Orleans musician Chris Sheard recalls going on car rides with the family and only having one cassette tape to listen to, over and over again. One side featured Marvin Gaye, and the other featured Sam Cooke. The family would flip the tape over and over, and Chris learned every single word to every song by heart. Chris ponders how children today have infinite options of music to listen to on demand, via Spotify and other internet apps. While there is amazing access to music for today, has something been lost in the overwhelming options? Chris doesn't comment on which time he thinks is better -- then or now? But he is grateful for his own experiences. He will always recall those long road trips and deeply listening to Marvin and Sam singing. Thank you, Chris, for sharing your memory with Confetti Park. Christopher Sheard is a New Orleans-based musician and teacher with years in the field of early childhood music. He is the founder of Blue House Music, a direct-to-family early learning music program that serves children under five and their caregivers. He currently serves as the lower school music teacher at The McGehee School for Girls and Little Gate in uptown New Orleans.

Carla Cooke is the youngest daughter of legendary singer and Civil Rights activist Sam Cooke. She has dedicated her career to singing her father's music, hoping to keep it alive for younger generations. She sings some Sam Cooke live in our studio, and discusses her upcoming show at 54 Below, “Carla Cooke: Celebrating Sam Cooke.”

Featuring a greasy new jam from LAMP; the astounding guitar creations of Will Graffe; new stuff from NYC legend David Murray and his quartet; BK trumpet legend Jordan Mclean and his Musical Resistance ensemble; the magnificent trio interplay of Ben Allison, Ted Nash, and Steve Cardenas; intergalactic space-jazz explorer Sun Ra; and finally, the one and only Sam Cooke.

Over the last 5 years, we have had the privilege of bringing you stories of Pioneering musicians such as Bill Monroe, Sam Cooke, Johnny Cash, Lead Belly, Dolly Parton, Sister Rosetta Tharpe, Pete Seeger, Jean Ritchie and so many more.However, a recently shift was forced upon the American Songcatcher program. Our distributor, Spotify for Podcasters/Creators, has taken down 1/4 of our episodes on all platforms, with more likely to follow, as they have began to crack down on the rights and usage of songs. Although this program is strictly education-based, and we don't sell products or produce any notable revenue from these episodes, they don't see what we do as fair use. It's a big blow, as over a year's worth of our work is now gone from the convenient places to listen to them.And so, our standstill for the last 5 months has been one of great pondering, and a lot of work with our nonprofit ReString Appalachia, where we have just surpassed 700 instruments given to those who had them taken away from natural disasters. It's been decided that from now on, American Songcatcher will strictly focus on traditional song history, field recordings, and interviews. We embrace our new direction, and we hope you will too. All of the episodes will be available on our website, AmericanSongcatcher.com in the next month. We'll be back with some new content soon, thank you for your patience, see you next time on American Songcatcher.__Support Educational Programming:⁠Tax-Exempt Donations⁠Join the⁠ Patreon Community⁠One-time donations:⁠ Venmo⁠ or⁠ PayPal⁠Follow ⁠American Songcatcher⁠ on ⁠Instagram⁠ Credits: Nicholas Edward Williams - Production, editing, recording and distribution

Apart from Yoko Ono, probably no other figure in the Beatles story is as divisive and hated as much as Allen Klein. Klein was brought into clean up the business disaster that was Apple, and to get a better contract and more money for the Beatles. After his work with Sam Cooke, The Rolling Stones, and others, the Beatles gave Klein a chance to improve their finances in 1969-70, with agreements that lasted for the next several years. In this episode, we dig into the background of Allen Klein, his rise to prominence, his work with The Rolling Stones, and of course shine an extensive light on his rise and fall with the Beatles as a group and as solo artists. Is he really the villain we've been led to believe he was? Or did he do some good things for the group? Listen and find out!

Send us a textThis week on Jams 'N' Cocktails, we're diving into the haunting and heartbreaking side of the music world. In honor of the anniversary of Marvin Gaye's tragic death, we're taking a step back from our usual laughs and libations to pay tribute to the voices silenced by violence. From soul legends to hip-hop icons, we reflect on the lives and legacies of artists whose music shaped generations—yet whose stories ended in tragedy.But it's not all heavy—we kick things off with a sweet (and slightly dangerous) viral shot of the week featuring Werther's Originals vodka infusions, sip on boozy creations with Captain Cocktail (Derek), and get caught up on the latest in entertainment with Jordyn in the Jordy Files. We also tackle a deeply personal Midweek Motivation segment on living with social anxiety—even as a performer. And in the second half, we get a special surprise visit from the one and only Elly, who jumps into the mix just in time for cocktails, games, and good vibes.LinksJNC Officialhttps://www.jncpodcast.comSupport us on Patreonhttps://www.patreon.com/jncpodcast

Sam Cooke was a lot of things: soul superstar, civil rights champion, whip smart entrepreneur. But he was also a serial womanizer with an unbridled libido. On December 11, 1964, Cooke was shot to death by Bertha Lee Franklin, manager of the Hacienda Motel in Los Angeles. The killing was ruled a justifiable homicide due to Cooke's unruly, drunken behavior, which involved him holding another woman captive in his hotel room and allegedly raping her earlier in the evening. With full appreciation of the #MeToo moment we are currently all living through as a culture, Disgraceland, with fresh eyes, looks into this crime and the successful effort by Sam Cooke's family and powerful music industry colleagues to salvage his legacy and reputation by personally discrediting his victim.

Dr. Karyne Messina, host of this series, and Dr. Felecia Powell-Williams, the co-host, talked about what happens when people can't listen. They discussed events that occurred at the Annual Conference of the American Psychoanalytic Association (APsA) that took place in San Francisco earlier this month and the half time show at Super Bowl 59. Dr. Powell-Williams, who attend the conference, said she left the APsA meeting holding a multitude of emotions. “On one level it was a satisfying reunification of parts of the organization that were split off due to fear or intolerance of exploring difference.” She added that as a guest on the Holmes Commission's panel when Sam Cooke's song was played, “It's Been a Long Time Coming,” it resonated with her life experiences. She said she thought the attendees were very moved as well as they listened to the song together. Both hosts talked about the meaning of the words and how important it is to listen and take in the essence of the message. Dr. Messina introduced Kendrick Lamar's half time show at Superbowl 59. After briefly reviewing the theme of the performance she highlighted once again the importance of “listening,” whether or not one knows the words, adding that Lamar blended artistry, social commentary, and star power to the show. She made a point of saying one doesn't necessarily have to understand the words to a song or even like them to gather meaning. She said we all have the right to dislike any type of entertainment but when we don't understand because we refuse to listen, we could be missing something very important. She also said she liked the fact that the performance included women such as SZA who joined Lamar on stage to perform “Luther” and “All the Stars” as well as Serena Williams who made an appearance as one of Lamar's dancers. Dr. Powell-Williams talked about Jay-Z's partnership with the NFL, a collaboration that has given him significant influence over the selection of half time show performers. The host and co-host also talked about psychoanalytic mechanisms of defense that may have been part of the controversy about the performance. They both focused on denial, an unconscious defense that comes into play when something is too painful or difficult to process. They suggested that may have occurred with people who dismissed the show entirely. Intellectualization as a defense was discussed by Dr. Powell-Williams. This occurs when responses of viewers focus on certain aspects of a performance, such as the choreography or musical arrangements, rather than engaging with its emotional or political content. By analyzing the show from a detached, analytical perspective, these individuals could have been avoiding the more challenging aspects of Lamar's message. Both hosts talked about projection as a defense which occurs when people attribute their own unacceptable thoughts, feelings, or impulses to someone else. This allows them to avoid dealing with these aspects of themselves by seeing them in others instead. Projection may have played a significant role with some viewers based on their reactions to the show. Those who felt threatened by the social commentary might have projected their own biases or interpretations onto the performance, assuming Lamar's intentions aligned with their own views rather than engaging with the actual performance.

The church was a crucial part of my upbringing, as it has been for so many others in the Black community. The church I grew up in gave me my progressive and affirming faith and also provided me with my biggest cultural connection to the Black experience. It also gave me the part of our culture that has had the biggest impact on me: music.I have been a singer and a musician my entire life. It's what I got my bachelor's degree in, and it's something I shared with my dad growing up. He was a musician who grew up in Clarksdale, Mississippi in the forties, and his connection to music is something I've always appreciated, especially as I've gotten older. I remember how certain songs by his favorite artists like Sam Cooke, Stevie Wonder, Ray Charles and Gladys Knight made him feel a certain way. Whether it was their rhythms, stories or the way they carried their voices, there was always something different about the way Black artists conveyed a message through their music.Music has always been an essential part of Black Culture. And the music that our culture has created is something that is consistently emulated around the world.The musical offerings of the Black community were initially from enslaved people singing in the fields—what we know as negro spirituals. It was a way to get through and endure their suffering. Songs like “Swing Low, Sweet Chariot” and “Sometimes I Feel Like a Motherless Child” were sung in churches and in fields. At times they were even used as ways to deliver messages and signals on the Underground Railroad. But more often than not, spirituals were used as a way to stay in good spirits and overcome adversity.Our ability as a people to find joy even in the hardest times goes back to slavery. But over time we evolved from singing in the fields as a coping mechanism, to being able to express the full scope of our emotions through our music. This started with the transition from spirituals to gospel and then to jazz, which played a pivotal part in Black history when Black voices were often silenced. Jazz was the language of liberation.From our pain to our joy, the Black community also cultivated rock and roll, hip hop and of course rhythm and blues. Our contributions to the music industry and to broader culture are immeasurable, and the list of Black artists in each genre that we have been blessed with is endless. Yet the biggest impact from our music is its very existence—our words, our sounds, our collective experience in this country—shared among us and increasingly shared around the world.#WeNeedToTalk is a reader-supported publication.

Get ready for a wild ride on this week's episode of Kliq This, where Kevin Nash and Sean Oliver dive into absolutely everything from a surprising deep dive on beef tallow skincare, to a breakdown of the hottest wrestling angles. Expect plenty of laughs, plenty of insight, and maybe even a few jokes about slathering colostrum on your face. Hey, we never said it wasn't going to get weird. Ever wonder if the new “yeet” chant is the future of wrestling? Kevin and Sean give their takes on modern catchphrases, dissect the evolution of “work rate,” and offer some frank opinions on who can really tell a story in the ring. And if you're a Logan Paul fan, you'll definitely want to hear Big Sexy's perspective on the social media star's in-ring potential and promo style. Football fans, stick around, because the Super Bowl talk here is anything but basic. From Mahomes and Brady, to hilariously overanalyzing every second of the halftime show, the guys look at how music, politics, and protest have long been woven into the American tapestry. Expect some passionate commentary on Sam Cooke, protest songs, and the power of performance on the biggest stage in sports. For a twist, the guys go all Dear Sexy and tackle offbeat relationship advice, from complicated threesomes to late-night car alarms. Kevin lays down some common sense (and some very uncommon sense) about handling the unhandleable, while Sean does his best to keep the train on the tracks. And yes, Kevin has a few choice words for house show payoffs in the '70s, too.
