The final week of NRL & NRLW action has arrived. Come the end of Sunday we will have champions crowned between the Storm and Broncos in the NRL and the Broncos and Roosters in the NRLW. The Tip Sheet looks at both match-ups and the big story lines heading into each decider as the season reaches its frenzied zenith. Sixties and Forty20 also recap a quiet week out of Parramatta with the 2026 coaching staff for the elite junior pathways locked in.

This one was a big deal for me. My guest, Dennis McNally, isn't just a reknowned author, music historian, and publicist, he's someone I've long considered somewhat of a “celebrity” in my world. From 1984 to 1995, Dennis was the Grateful Dead's publicist and part of the band's inner circle.He's written five books, including the classic Long Strange Trip: The Inside History of the Grateful Dead, and his latest, The Last Great Dream - How Bohemians Became Hippies and Created the Sixties. He's married to the love of his life, photographer and author Susana Millman, whose book Alive With the Dead - A Fly on the Wall with a Camera, is one of my favorites. What struck me most was Dennis's insight into how the Dead operated behind the scenes. How the band members interacted, what touring was like, and what it was like to be at the center of all that energy for so many years. He was every bit as gracious, articulate, and engaging as I could have imagined and I'm honored to now call Dennis a friend.Speaking of friends, this episode was also a first for me. I was joined by my good friend Charlie French as co-host who added thoughtful color and questions that I wouldn't have thought to ask! These days, Dennis lives in San Francisco with Susana and is still doing the work he loves - namely as the publicist for Little Feat.It's an honor and a privilege to share our conversation. So join us, and let's see where the energy takes us!https://www.dennismcnally.com/https://mamarazi.com/Stir It Up https://youtu.be/XQxceOPnj9Q?si=i8Vu2Wh_UnpJ_6LXDeath Don't Have No Mercy https://youtu.be/wH8GUfK-MOM?si=frh9iuuf1bCDSuobTime Loves a Hero https://music.apple.com/us/album/time-loves-a-hero/471749182?i=471749184https://www.facebook.com/groups/1983015048745357

Love constrains. Since the Sixties at least, "love" has been used to excuse all kinds of harmful behavior. "Free love" was a popular cliché then. "Love is love" something you might hear today. But real love lives in harmony with the Law of God. And it restricts our choices to those that actually help other people. In 1 Corinthians, Paul was teaching that church about the nature and supremacy of love.

It is one of The Tip Sheet's most anticipated episodes each year and the inimitable Bernie Gurr joins the show once again to recap and review the 2025 season for the Parramatta Eels. Sixties and Forty20 talk everything Blue & Gold with Gurr and tap into his keen mind to break down a massive year of transition and growth for the Eels under new coach Jason Ryles. The show covers a broad range of topics starting with the importance of the Centre of Excellence and then through a series of focused footy questions. What did the Eels do to turn their season around after a dismal start? Which players and positional groups proved key during their scorching run home? Where do Parramatta need to improve and what positional should they be recruiting for? Bernie also takes a look at the wider landscape of the NRL. How does season 2025 stand among recent years for the code? With the finals down to just four teams - who will be the last team standing? The boys wrap up the show with a look at the looming expansion for the code and what logistical and administrative challenges await Perth and PNG.

The Parramatta Eels are finally in the throes of the offseason after the NSW Cup went down to the New Zealand Warriors on Saturday. The Tip Sheet plows fearlessly ahead as Sixties and Forty20 wrap the latest news for the Blue & Gold including the winners from the NRLW and HNWP Awards Night this week. We said sayonara, auf wiedersehen and arrivederci to the Raiders and Bulldogs over the weekend as only four teams are left standing in the pursuit of the Provan-Summons Trophy. The boys look at the lay of the land in the finals and cover some huge news out of Bondi as Mark Nawaqanitawase confirms his future beyond 2026.
Nick Bromell is the author of By the Sweat of the Brow: Labor and Literature in Antebellum American Culture and Tomorrow Never Knows: Rock and Psychedelics in the Sixties, both published by the University of Chicago Press. His articles and essays on African American literature and political thought have appeared in American Literature, American Literary History, Political Theory, Raritan, and The Sewanee Review. He teaches at the University of Massachusetts, Amherst, and he blogs at thetimeisalwaysnow.org. Nick Bromell's book is a work of intellectual history and political theory that places Black thinkers—writers, activists, and artists—at the center of American democratic thought. He argues that African American intellectual traditions have continually reshaped the meaning of democracy in the U.S., offering critiques and visions that go beyond the frameworks typically emphasized in mainstream political philosophy. The title, taken from James Baldwin's writings, reflectsthe idea that democracy is never finished—it is always urgent and ongoing.The Time is Always Now: Black Political Thought and the Transformation of U.S. Democracy (Oxford UP, 2013) posits that Black thought epitomizes the crucible of American Democratic theory Bromell contends that African American thinkers are not simply responding to oppression but actively producing political theory—ideasabout freedom, justice, equality, and collective life. Their insights emerge from lived experiences of slavery, segregation,and racial inequality, which provide a unique vantage point for critiquing American democracy.Secondly, Democracy is an ongoing and incomplete project of reconstruction, renewal, and revival. Building on Baldwin's phrase “the time is always now,” Bromell argues that democracy must be constantly reimagined and fought for. Black intellectual traditions highlight democracy's fragility and incompleteness, challenging myths of American exceptionalism.Third, American Democracy exists beyond what are known to be traditional American institutions. While mainstream American political theory often places focus on constitutions, governments, or laws, Black thinkers and citizens emphasize affective, relational, and cultural dimensions of democracy—dimensions that exhibit and feature American virtues and values of community, solidarity, and recognition.Fourth, Professor Bromell calls for a vibrant relational empathy and mutual recognition. In this sense, Bromell highlights Black thought's insistence on recognition of shared humanity and mutual vulnerability as the foundation for democraticpractice. Thinkers as varied as James Baldwin, Frederick Douglass, Martin Luther King Jr, Toni Morrison, and Ralph Ellison stress the necessity of empathy as a civic virtue. Bromell reframes African American intellectual history as politicaltheory, not just cultural or social commentary. He challenges readers to recognize that the deepest resources fordemocratic renewal in America come from traditions forged under conditions of racial oppression. Ultimately The Time is Always Now insists that democracy is less about stable American institutions and more about the practice of bettering and refining incipient features of American institutions-facing each other honestly, acknowledging and shouldering of collective pain, and being committed to a shared mutual recognition of the totality of our collective experience.

From the cool and sultry lounge sounds smothered in smoke to the soul venues that celebrated love and all its pitfalls, we bring you the songbirds this week. We'll be exploring vocalists, known and unknown, that delivered the goods in the first few years of the 1960s. Rock ‘n roll was finding its foothold at the same time as soul music was beginning to bust out in a big way. You'll be hearing some you know and some you don't in this week's Deeper Roots. Yeah, we've got The Chordettes, Brenda Lee and The Shirelles but we've also got some very special gems from Helen Shapiro, Judy Thomas, Kitty Ford and Betty O'Brian this week. We'll run a chronological marathon from 1960 to 1963, ignoring the genre guardrails as we make our way along. Hope you can join in on the fun.
There is just one game to preview this week for the Parramatta Eels as the NSW Cup vie for a berth in the Grand Final. To get there they will need to defeat the New Zealand Warriors in a massive clash at Jubliee Stadium on Saturday. The Tip Sheet takes a deep dive on what the Eels need to do to overcome the minor premiers and which players could star for the Blue & Gold if they are to prevail over their trans-Tasman rivals. Sixties and Forty20 also take a quick look at the latest happenings for the Eels including a link to Cody Ramsay as well as their tips for the NRLW and HNWP award winners.
Paying tribute to the classic no-sex sex comedies from the late '50s and early '60s, Down With Love is a wonderful, bright, kitschy romcom classic that seems to be well regarded, if not completely well remembered.Renee Zellweger (fresh from Chicago) and Ewan McGregor (fresh from Moulin Rouge) tackle roles similar to those made famous by girl-next-door-turned-sex-symbol Doris Day and serious-actor-turned-romantic-lead Rock Hudson, in a genuinely wonderful pastiche to their movies Pillow Talk (1959), Lover Come Back (1961) and Send Me No Flowers (1964). (I watched Pillow Talk as part of my prep for this episode, and I have to say it's a truly delightful movie and Doris Day is incredible in it! Please watch it if you can!)Down With Love is so impressive in its desire to not only be set in the sixties, but also to be filmed like it were filmed in the Sixties. It's meant to look like it was filmed in Technicolor. The thought that went into it is insane, from authentic props and vintage fabrics for costuming, to wanting the sets to actually look just like sets. Down With Love is not a film steeped in realistic depictions of 1962 New York. It's meant to look wonky. It relishes, and adores, the world its set in.

The finals roll on across the NRL and other graders and the Eels still have a burning hope alive in the NSW Cup. The Tip Sheet analyses the shortest Team List Tuesday of the year as Parramatta gear up to upset the New Zealand Warriors on Saturday. Sixties and Forty20 wrap up an otherwise quiet week for the Eels with the off-season arriving for all other major grades. Week 1 of the NRL finals produced banger after banger that culminated in a legendary shootout between the Raiders and Broncos. The boys wrap every game and look at the fallout heading into Week 2. There is also breaking news surrounding the QLD police investigation into Brandon Smith and Victor Radley as the show carefully prods at the new developments to see what is what.
Theresa Crow Spreading His Wings is the founder of Gathering Our Bundles, a leadership and healing platform rooted in love, truth, and cultural safety. A survivor of the Sixties scoop, Theresa specializes in trauma-informed care, decolonizing leadership, and system navigation for Indigenous communities. She is a Blackfoot First Nations woman from the Blood Tribe in Treaty 7 Territory in Standoff, Alberta. Her work is grounded in Blackfoot values and teachings.

Sixties is absent from The Tip Sheet tonight but very much here in spirit as he does the ground work for the show at the Ken Thornett Medal presentation. Forty20 holds it down on the live stream as the wraps up the final full weekend of action before the off-season arrives for the NRL and Jersey Flegg Cup while Sixties transmits all of the deserved winners from the club's big night. There has been some big market action as the Bulldogs and Sharks lock up core talent on and off the field for the long haul while the Sea Eagles and Knights also made long-term acquisitions. There was one more piece of fascinating signing news with Taylan May rejecting a 3-year deal from the Tigers and the club then almost instantly folding to his counter offer. The intrigue and drama of the finals is well and truly underway with Josh Papalii and Reece Walsh potentially injured at training while Nicho Hynes had his hip-drop charge sensationally downgraded within the space of 24 hours – is it another case of right outcome but troubling process? Laurie Daley is set to join the Sea Eagles as an advisor to Anthony Seibold. What does it mean for the dirty birds and for NSW?
Sixties is back from the Ken Thornett Medal! He runs through the big night for the Blue & Gold as he and Forty20 review all of the award winners for season 2025. The Tip Sheet then returns to its regularly scheduled previewing as the boys see how the Eels shape up across the NRLW, NSW Cup and HNWP. It is a love/hate relationship with the Raiders this week with the NSW Cup looking to overcome Canberra while the NRLW need a crucial assist from the Raiders if they are to make the finals.

The Wrecking Crew is to the Sixties what The Immediate Family are to the Seventies, so it's no accident that music doc director extraordinaire Denny Tedesco tackled both groups of studio musicians in equally fascinating documentaries.

How to bring peace to Gaza and Ukraine? Maybe the United Nations can help. Or, sadly, maybe not. But there really was a time, in the second half of the 20th century, when the United Nations could help bring peace to supposedly insoluble wars. The U.N.'s glory days were in the Sixties when it was run by a former Burmese school teacher called U Thant. His incredible story is told by his grandson, the Cambridge University historian Thant Myint-U, in a new book appropriately called Peacemaker. Thant Myint-U reminds us of a halcyon time when the UN Secretary-General could summon presidents at will, mediate between nuclear superpowers, and command respect from Castro to Kennedy. Today's forgotten history reveals how U Thant's intervention during the Cuban Missile Crisis helped prevent nuclear war—a role not-so-surprisingly airbrushed from most American and Soviet accounts. Yes, even in the glory years of the Sixties, the bureaucratized U.N. was far from perfect. But under a dedicated peacemaker like U-Thant it could help bring ceasefires to seemingly endless wars. Like in Ukraine and Gaza. 1. U Thant's crucial role in preventing nuclear war has been erased from history During the Cuban Missile Crisis, U Thant provided the face-saving framework that allowed both Khrushchev and Kennedy to step back from the brink. He articulated the missiles-for-no-invasion deal, gave Khrushchev a neutral party to respond to instead of American ultimatums, and bought Kennedy time against his hawkish advisors. Yet this intervention barely appears in American or Soviet accounts.2. The UN's decline stems from lost enthusiasm on both sides The UN's marginalization wasn't inevitable. It resulted from America's disillusionment after Vietnam-era challenges to its power, combined with a new generation of Third World leaders less interested in the global stage than their predecessors like Nehru, Nasser, and Nkrumah. Both superpowers and smaller nations stopped investing in the institution.3. Decolonization needed the UN's framework to succeed Without the UN providing a structure where newly independent nations had equal status and a voice, decolonization might have resulted in continued informal empire or Commonwealth arrangements. The UN gave these countries both legitimacy and a platform to resist neo-colonial pressures.4. The next Secretary-General selection could determine the UN's survival With the current term ending in 2025, the choice of the next leader—requiring agreement between Trump, Putin, and Xi Jinping—may be the UN's last chance for relevance. Without strong leadership focused on the UN's core peacemaking function, the institution may not survive.5. The UN worked best when it rejected Cold War binary thinking The non-aligned movement wasn't passive neutrality but active rejection of a world divided into camps. Leaders like U Thant succeeded by creating space for all parties to negotiate without choosing sides, offering an alternative to the superpower confrontation that risked nuclear war.Keen On America is a reader-supported publication.

Trump's scheme to maintain control in the House in the midterms? Eliminate Democratic seats in Texas by redistricting. Texas House Democrats have responded by fleeing the state to block the necessary quorum on the proposed district map – now, the FBI might be deployed to arrest those Democrats; but, for what crime? Harold Meyerson comments.Also: Robert Reich says the origin of our troubles with Trump and MAGA go back to the sixties; he says it started with the sixties movements – which created “a giant political void that would eventually be filled by Donald Trump's angry, bigoted cultural populism.” His new memoir is “Coming Up Short.” Plus: "From Dictatorship to Democracy" by Gene Sharp, the world's top scholar on peaceful protest, seems to be all about Trump but was published a decade before Trump appeared on the scene. For example: "Dictatorships are never as strong as they think they are. And people are never as weak as they think they are" – the book is our thank you gift for donations during today's KPFK fund drive – Alan Minsky comments.
Subscribers can enjoy exclusive, extended conversations from this podcast. To subscribe, go to BumpInTheRoad.Substack.com Carol Remz is 80. And an outspoken spokesperson about women's sexuality as they age. Back in the 1980's when she was experiencing perimenopause and menopause, discussions about women's health, intimacy, and aging were largely taboo and Carol was left to navigate her health challenges by herself. A serendipitous encounter with sea buckthorn, a plant known for its healing properties, transformed her experience. Carol talks about the various preconceptions that often interfere with romantic relationships as we age and why we need to dispel them. Aging well, she notes, means working on personal acceptance.. Practicing that self acceptance, and all the changes that come with aging, is the first step to open the path to true intimacy. Carol believes that true intimacy goes beyond physicality and is rooted in emotional connection and acceptance of one's vulnerabilities. To that end, she has written a book that aims to educate and empower women about their sexuality and health, providing the sex education many missed out on during their formative years. Not to mention their menapausal mid-life years! Her message is clear: we are not defined by our age or circumstances but by love and acceptance. What they're saying: “This is a beautiful book about life, its imperfections, its challenges, and its joys. It is a book of hope and wisdom for all of us facing a bump in the road.” –Pragito Dove “Pat has woven together beautiful stories of life setbacks that have been transformed into spiritual growth. This book is a gift and a must-read for souls experiencing pain and yearning for growth.” –Gary Hensel Learn more at Follow Bump on: ➡️ ➡️ ➡️ ➡️ ➡️

How to write about the kaleidoscopic Sixties in the gloom of 2025? According to James Grady, author of the classic Six Days of the Condor and the new mid-century novel American Sky, the key is calibrating nostalgia with unflinching honesty about the past's complexities. "You can't just write about the past and not have a focus also on current times and really the future," Grady explains. The novelist's approach involves fictionalizing personal experiences while ensuring memories of traumatic events like the JFK or MLK assassinations connect with the painful realities of MAGA America. Rather than romanticizing the Sixties, Grady emphasizes the civil rights violence, the generational divide, and the "silent majority's" anxieties alongside the era's optimism. Grady's goal isn't to escape into nostalgia but to help readers understand how past dreams and failures shaped our present moment, making history a lens for understanding America's current challenges.1. Historical Fiction Must Connect Past to Present "You can't just write about the past and not have a focus also on current times and really the future. Otherwise it's like you're looking back at an old photograph of a horse and buggy. It's lovely, but it doesn't really speak to you."2. The Danger of Elite Liberal Condescension "Starting in about 1975 and 1976, I saw a new kind of, quote, liberal or left-winger come into the power circles of Washington, D.C. They were elite-educated, Ivy League, and they did their best to ignore any working class roots that they had. They started to look down on the labor unions."3. Fiction Can Reveal Truth Better Than Facts "So we can change the facts, but the facts are not necessarily necessary to reveal the truths... this is not a memoir where you have to be factual. This is fiction. And yet there's an echo of all of us."4. True Rebellion Requires Positive Vision "I always think of the great French philosopher Albert Camus who said a true rebel says yes to something better instead of just saying no and rejecting and fighting. You've got to have something to fight for."5. Literature Should Focus on Ordinary Americans "I think that a good author has to write about us, and you, almost more than they write about me... I want to know what's going on with someone in, you know, there's a town called Beaver Crossing, Nebraska, or, you know, Sonoma, California... Where real people are leading their lives and we learn from each other."Keen On America is a reader-supported publication.

Abe Saffron rose from wartime wheeler-dealing to become the king of Sydney's underworld, a man whose appetite for sex, money and scandal was unmatched by any other Aussie gangster in the swinging Sixties. Saffron paid everybody off, brought Sinatra to Sydney, and hosted Sinatra. He was, in the words of one reporter, “Mr Sin”. But as Saffron's empire of vice grew, so did the list of those desperate to bring him down — including his own henchmen. And as the Seventies dawned, Saffron would be embroiled in two fatal scandals that stained his reputation forever: one a tragic fairground fire, the other a kidnapping and murder that shocked the nation.

Carolyn Sideco's story begins in The Philippines. Her dad, Tony Sideco, was born on the island of Cebu in 1938. Her mom, Linda, was born in Paniqui in 1942. By the time Carolyn's mom was born, the Japanese occupied The Philippines. Young Tony worked for the electric company, which sent him to Paniqui. He soon met his wife-to-be there when he boarded at Carolyn's grandmother's house. It wasn't an overnight romance. The way Tony (who joined his wife in the room with me and Carolyn as we recorded) tells it, he had eyed Linda for so long that he went cross-eyed. Linda was her parents' first daughter, and she came after five older brothers. So she was always afforded chaperones. After Linda, her parents had three more girls. One of those girls, Carolyn's aunt, lives next-door to where we recorded, a tradition of intergenerationality the family carried with them when they migrated to the US. Tony came to the United States first in the late Sixties, shortly after Carolyn and her twin sister were born. His migration was motivated by the so-called “American dream.” Carolyn's version is different, though. She thinks it had more to do with the Immigration and Nationality Act of 1965, which effectively did away with nationality quotas. By the time Tony arrived, several members of both his and his wife's family were already here, many of them in the Outer Sunset. When baby Carolyn, her sister, and their mom arrived, they first lived on 45th Avenue in The Sunset with her aunt and uncle. Then the family moved to 39th Avenue to be on their own. This was the house that Carolyn grew up in, and the one we recorded this podcast in. A community of Paniquieños already existed all around them. In hindsight, Carolyn thinks it was a lot easier for folks like her parents to move halfway around the world because they landed, in essence, in an expat community. Her mom didn't have to learn English so urgently when she arrived, to cite just one example. Several of those families are still around, spread around the North Peninsula. Some also still live in San Francisco, like Carolyn. Carolyn talks about various aspects of her life that now, in hindsight as an adult, meant she rarely felt different from those around her. She says that in her adult life, meeting folks her parents' age who didn't have the same accent as her parents really opened her eyes. Today, Carolyn is the president of Paniquieñans USA, an organization as old as she is. Then we get back to Carolyn's personal story. Her and her twin, Rosalyn, joined their mom to go to the US when they were two. She shares a cute story of how their mom loved a party so much that she would celebrate their birthday every second day of the month (their birthday is Feb. 2). Because of this, Carolyn grew up thinking that birthdays happen every month. She was five when her family moved out of her uncle and aunt's place on 45th and into their childhood home on 39th Avenue, and Carolyn remembers it well. We talk briefly about the real estate agent who sold them the house and how little they paid (“$24,000,” Tony Sideco, who was in the room with us that day, chimes in—that's the equivalent of roughly $173K today). Linda Sideco found work at Little Sisters of the Poor Convalescent Home on Lake Street, where Carolyn would sometimes visit her. Both of Carolyn's parents worked graveyard shifts. The young couple were able to save for a year for the down payment on their new home. We take a sidebar for Carolyn to talk about the difference in how service and healthcare work are valued in The Philippines vs. how they're valued in the US. Carolyn then shares a story of how, when she was in the fourth grade, she and her twin sister started going to a new school in their neighborhood. Prior to this, they were bussed. At her new school, they asked Carolyn if she wanted to play volleyball. But to join the team, she needed to pay five dollars. She ran four blocks home to ask her mom for the money, but turns out she wouldn't give it to young Carolyn, who was so upset that she cried until her mom relented. She did well at volleyball and even made friends through her new sport. She felt so good about it all that she thought, ‘This is why dad brought us here.' It was the beginning of what would become a lifelong involvement with sports. We end Part 1 with Carolyn's foray into many different sports and all the women along the way who inspired her. Check back next week for Part 2 and the official last episode of Season 7 of Storied: San Francisco. We recorded this podcast at Carolyn's childhood home in The Sunset in June 2025.
