This is the grand finale of our five episode arc about soundtracks, and today I'm pulling three random cards from my original Soundtracks deck to break down what they mean and how they can help you. We're talking about why starting is exciting but finishing is where the magic happens (spoiler: 92% of New Year's resolutions fail because everyone starts but only 8% finish), why feeling uncomfortable is actually a good sign that you're growing, and why the world will never be changed by the things you almost did. If you've got an almost list (and we all do), this episode will challenge you to rescue just one thing from it. These aren't just cards. They're conversation starters, daily reminders, and tools to help you retire broken soundtracks and replace them with powerful new ones. Growth is the goal, not comfort. Let's get after it.In This Episode:Grab your very own Soundtracks Conversations Card Deck for Parents & Teens Make sure to follow me on Instagram and share with your friends!Keep up with my book list on GoodReads!Sign up for my newsletter, Try This!Book me to speak at your event or to your team!You can grab a copy of my book All It Takes Is a Goal from your favorite bookstore or at my website!Sign up for the Remarkable You Community today!

This week on Another Pass, Sam and Case are joined by Nic Woolfe to roll out and revisit Transformers: The Movie (1986)! We dig into the film's bold tonal shift, unforgettable soundtrack, and the shocking moments that left an entire generation of kids staring at the screen in disbelief. Does this animated cult classic still have the touch… or does it dare to be stupid? Another Pass Full Episode Originally aired: March 13, 2026  Music by Vin Macri and Matt Brogan Podcast Edited by Sophia Ricciardi Certain Point Of View is a podcast network brining you all sorts of nerdy goodness! From Star Wars role playing, to Disney day dreaming, to video game love, we've got the show for you!  Learn more on our website: https://www.certainpov.com Support us on Patreon! patreon.com/CertainPOVMedia  Join us on Discord: https://discord.gg/wcHHer4 PODCAST SHOWS: ▶ Another Pass - https://www.certainpov.com/another-pass-podcast Notes Transformers Movie Overview and Legacy The 1986 Transformers movie remains a cult classic largely due to its bold character deaths and iconic soundtrack despite its flaws (00:00). Cult Classic Status from Bold Choices (00:39) The film's decision to kill most of the original cast early was a major risk that shaped its lasting appeal. This choice was tied to marketing a new toy line, forcing the removal of older characters to introduce new ones. The high character death count was unusual for 1980s cartoons but resonated as a memorable and impactful narrative choice. Sam Alicea emphasized the movie's unique "music video" style and violent tone as key to its charm. Soundtrack as a Defining Feature (00:29) The film features a heavy metal soundtrack with songs like "The Touch" and Weird Al Yankovic's contribution, which remain popular. Sam highlighted the soundtrack's role in making the movie enjoyable even when used as background during chores. The soundtrack's placement sometimes felt forced but added to the overall energetic vibe of the film. The music helped cement the movie's nostalgic value and cultural impact beyond just the story. Animation Quality and Style (00:32) The animation is a mix of highly detailed hand-drawn sequences and inconsistent lower-budget scenes. Key moments like Unicron's introduction and the transformation of Galvatron show impressive craftsmanship. Some sequences, such as Autobot City's transformation, defy logic but maintain visual excitement. The movie's aesthetic reflects typical 1980s animation with a blend of impressive and sloppy elements. Character and Design Highlights (00:14, 00:33) The introduction of new characters like Hot Rod and Cup served marketing goals but received mixed reception; some preferred legacy characters instead. The Dinobots, especially Grimlock, were fan favorites noted for their personality and screen presence. Decepticons like Galvatron and Starscream stood out, with Starscream's treacherous antics praised. New designs leaned toward smoother, rounded shapes compared to the original blockier forms, signaling the toy line shift. Strategic Marketing and Toy Line Impact The movie functioned primarily as a vehicle to launch a new toy line, influencing story and character decisions deeply (00:12, 00:16). Toy Line Rollout Drives Plot and Character Fate (00:12) Killing off legacy characters cleared the stage for a new roster designed to sell fresh toys. Characters like Cup were introduced primarily to support new toy sales rather than story needs, frustrating some fans. Hot Rod's arc was designed to establish a fresh hero while maintaining toyetic appeal. The shift to new designs reflected a strategic move to modernize the brand and stimulate consumer interest. Balancing Narrative and Marketing Needs (00:16) The movie's story and character choices sometimes sacrificed cohesion for toy marketing goals. Legacy characters like Perceptor and the Dinobots were retained to maintain continuity and fan connection. Some characters, like Ultra Magnus, were less favored due to lack of narrative effectiveness but existed for toy continuity. The film's pacing and tone reflected the tension between storytelling and commercial objectives. Voice Cast and Star Power Usage (00:24) Leonard Nimoy's casting as Galvatron was a notable stunt but was not sustained beyond the movie. Orson Welles' last role as Unicron added gravitas despite limited credit and technical challenges with his audio. Voice changes and stunt casting decisions were influenced by budget and potential marketing impact. The cast choices reflect a blend of marketing intent and creative ambition. Narrative and Character Development Critiques The movie's storytelling assumes audience familiarity and presents mixed character arcs, impacting accessibility and engagement (00:38, 00:59). High Barrier for New Viewers (00:38) Nick Wolfe identified the movie as not beginner-friendly, expecting viewers to know extensive Transformers lore. The lack of exposition around key characters and events made it confusing for newcomers. Proposed solutions included adding narrated backstory and flashbacks to ease new viewers into the plot. This gap likely contributed to the movie's commercial failure despite strong fan following. Character Arcs and Roles (00:16, 00:59) Hot Rod's character is a flawed hero whose leadership rise felt unearned, creating mixed audience reception. Cup's role was criticized for being a new character inserted mainly for toy reasons rather than story depth. The pitch suggested replacing Cup with a legacy character like Ironhide to strengthen narrative bonds. Optimus Prime's death remains a pivotal emotional moment but complicates continuity and future storytelling. Supporting Characters and Dynamics (01:06, 01:09) Grimlock's interactions with Hot Rod added needed conflict and character development. Supporting characters like RC and Springer were noted as effective background players without overwhelming the story. Starscream's consistent treachery was highlighted as a strong character trait enhancing the villain dynamic. There was consensus that some Decepticon characters disappeared too quickly, weakening the villain ensemble. Proposed Improvements and Alternate Pitch Nick Wolfe's detailed pitch aimed to make the movie more accessible, coherent, and emotionally resonant without losing core elements (00:39, 00:42). Introductory Narration and Flashbacks (00:42) Suggested opening with Optimus Prime narrating key backstory events to orient new viewers. Including flashbacks to important episodes would provide context for the war, characters, and stakes. This would bridge the gap between fans and newcomers, enhancing story clarity. It also sets up the importance of Energon and Autobot City more clearly. Expanded Character Development and Role Reassignments (00:43, 00:51) Proposed making Cup more like Ironhide or Tanker (an original draft character) to improve narrative depth. Hot Rod would be shown as a capable fighter before his failures, building audience empathy. Grimlock and Hot Rod's relationship would be deepened with conflict and eventual teamwork. Optimus Prime would be critically wounded but kept alive on life support, preserving his legacy. Streamlined Plot and Group Dynamics (00:50) Consolidated the Junkion and Quintesson arcs into a single planet scenario for simplicity. Divided Autobots into clear factions with distinct challenges to create focused narrative threads. Added heroic sacrifices and teamwork moments to raise stakes and emotional impact. The pitch ended with Optimus evolving into Ultra Magnus, aligning with toy line needs while preserving character continuity. Maintaining Cult Appeal While Improving Accessibility (01:03) The pitch carefully retained key emotional beats like Optimus Prime's near-death and Hot Rod's rise. It balanced new viewer guidance with fan service to preserve the movie's iconic moments. Suggested minor tweaks to Unicron's scale and lore to reduce confusion without major changes. The approach aimed to prevent later franchise regrets about character handling seen in season three. Fan and Host Perspectives on Movie's Legacy The hosts and guest expressed strong affection for the movie's nostalgic and cultural value despite its flaws (00:59, 01:00). Embracing the Movie's 1980s Roots (01:00) Sam Alicea stressed the film's authentic 80s vibe, embracing both its high-quality animation and its rough edges. The movie was seen as a time capsule of 80s animation and storytelling norms, including its willingness to embrace trauma. The soundtrack's energy and the movie's unapologetic style were key to its enduring love. There was reluctance to change the movie too much, preserving its unique charm. Appreciation of Character Moments and Humor (01:09) Starscream was praised for his consistent jerkiness, providing comic relief and memorable villainy. The Decepticons' internal conflicts were contrasted with the Autobots' camaraderie, enriching character dynamics. The hosts lamented the disappearance of classic Decepticons when newer ones appeared. The blend of action, humor, and character quirks contributed to the movie's lasting appeal. Community and Ongoing Engagement (01:12, 01:16) Nick Wolfe and hosts highlighted fan communities like the Certain Point of View Media Discord for ongoing discussions. References to other Transformers properties like Beast Wars show layered fan engagement across generations. The show's Patreon and related projects encourage deeper fan interaction and content creation. The continued interest in the movie reflects its significance beyond initial box office performance. Distribution and Community Outreach The podcast promotes broader engagement through Patreon, additional shows, and social media presence (01:16). Patreon Support and Exclusive Content (01:16) The show thanks executive producer-level patrons by name, recognizing their financial support. Patreon offers early episode clips, essays on geek culture, and D&D topics to supporters. Essays like "Never Go Full Ranger" provide added value and deepen listener engagement. This support sustains the podcast's production and community activities. New Shows and Guest Hosting Opportunities (01:17) The launch of "Trade School," a comic book guest-hosted show, expands the network's content diversity. The format encourages fans to share positive takes on trade paperbacks in brief episodes. This initiative fosters community involvement and fresh perspectives. The network invites submissions, broadening participation from listeners. Social Media and Contact Channels (01:13, 01:16) Hosts provide social media handles and highlight the Discord server as a key interaction hub. Nick Wolfe shares his Reddit and Discord activity, emphasizing low-pressure involvement. The Discord serves as a central place for fan discussion and host engagement. Listeners are encouraged to tag hosts for responses and participate in the fan community. Upcoming Episode and Network Branding (01:18) The next podcast episode will cover "Highlander 2: The Quickening," maintaining a focus on cult and flawed films. The show's production credits and branding reinforce a professional and creative identity. The network's website and YouTube presence offer additional access points. This continuity supports sustained audience growth and brand recognition.    

Rob Tannenbaum in conversation with David Eastaugh https://www.cherryred.co.uk/various-artists-cbgb-a-new-york-city-soundtrack-1975-1986-4cd?srsltid=AfmBOoohm1glA9ey7r6K1osC9drIJOO4YZT5Q0P6y6vXPapBUTVMN2ig “CBGB was a place for the dirty people.” - Jimmy Destri of Blondie “Afterwards, I took off and went crosstown to CBGB's, the stronghold of the unknown, to be with my own people.” - Patti Smith In December 1973 Hilly Kristal changed the name of his roots music bar from Hilly's on the Bowery to CBGB and altered his musical policy to hire mostly rock bands. He was indifferent to many of them (“No one is going to like you guys, but I'll have you back,” he told Joey Ramone), blissfully unaware of how important his scruffy little club would soon become. In the span of only 15 months, the five groups that comprise the CBGB's pantheon all debuted: Television in March 1974, followed by Ramones in August and Blondie in October, then Patti Smith in February 1975 and Talking Heads four months later. Those five groups all quickly got record deals and became popular enough to outgrow CBGB's. By the fall of 1977, Smith was the only one who was still playing there. What succeeded the Big Five was an array of new and retro styles, all of which feature here: No Wave (Sonic Youth, Mars, DNA, Bush Tetras), post-punk (Ritual Tension, Unknown Gender, Khmer Rouge), mutant funk and R&B (James Chance & The Contortions, Mink DeVille), art-rock bands (R.L. Crutchfield's Dark Day, The Revelons, Erasers, Jeff and Jane Hudson) hardcore punk (Minor Threat, Bad Brains, Vatican Commandos, Beastie Boys), and lots of power pop (Sorrows, The dBs, The Rudies, The Miamis, The Paley Brothers) . The club's best-known bands are present on this compilation but we've also revived interest in dozens of unfairly forgotten acts that, for a moment in time, made an album, EP, 45, or even a demo that crackled with innovation, wit, and joy. CBGB no longer exists, at least not in the physical plane, but what happened between those soot-filled, beer-stinking walls continues to reverberate around the world.

Banda de Pífanos de Caruaru is a family ensemble, composed of two fife players (pífanos) and four percussionists, that had a tremendous impact on Gilberto Gil and the birth of Tropicalia. The song was composed by band leader Sebastião Biano at least 30 years before its album release, a blend of forró, maracatu, and free jazz, with a sound based on a real story of a dog fighting a jaguar.

Rocky IV was very much the most 80's Rocky of the entire franchise. It was big, noisy and cheesy in all the right ways. It was also the only Rocky film not to be scored by Bill Conti. This week, we look at the pinnacle of Rocky soundtracks and what songs still hold up today. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Trying to have a conversation with your teenager? You ask how their day was and get "fine." You ask who was at the party and get "no one." You ask what they're doing and get "nothing." Sound familiar? In this episode, I'm sharing three powerful soundtracks from our Parents and Teens card deck that will help you start real conversations with your teenager. These aren't hypothetical parenting tips. I raised two teenagers, and these are straight from my own dinner table. You'll discover why "if you wouldn't say it to a friend, don't say it to yourself" teaches self awareness, how "this is my first time too" opens up vulnerability and deeper connection, and why teenagers need to think of their parents as "investors in YOU Inc." These conversation starters are natural, simple, and designed to help you move from quantity time to quality time. Because here's the reality: you don't get one deep conversation. You practice these cards over and over until card number seven or fourteen changes everything.In This Episode:Grab your very own Soundtracks Conversations Card Deck for Parents & Teens Make sure to follow me on Instagram and share with your friends!Keep up with my book list on GoodReads!Sign up for my newsletter, Try This!Book me to speak at your event or to your team!You can grab a copy of my book All It Takes Is a Goal from your favorite bookstore or at my website!Sign up for the Remarkable You Community today!

Gänsehaut beim Sturmwind-Theme? Nostalgie-Tränen bei Gothic 3? Oder der absolute Ohrwurm beim "Heinrich"-Song in der Taverne? Spielemusik ist längst kein reines Hintergrund-Gedudel mehr, sondern eine der mächtigsten Mechaniken, um uns emotional an ein Spiel zu fesseln. Wir besprechen im Talk, warum uns Game-Soundtracks ein Leben lang begleiten, wie aus Pixel-Beeps ausverkaufte Orchester-Konzerte wurden und wie Spiele uns über die Ohren heimlich steuern. Dafür haben wir uns absolute Expertise in die Runde geholt: Jan Valta (Komponist von Kingdom Come: Deliverance 1 & 2) gibt exklusive Einblicke hinter die Kulissen seiner Arbeit und verrät, warum er tausende Stunden für KCD komponieren musste. Mit dabei sind außerdem GameStar-Redakteurin & KCD-Expertin Steffi sowie Gamestar-Kollege und Musiker Jules!

From Jerry Lee Lewis at Kellogg Auditorium in 1958 to Frank Zappa in Tampa, host Michael Gross takes listeners on a deeply personal journey through the music that shaped his soul. In this episode, Michael reflects on how rock and roll, folk, classical, and the lyrics of Bob Dylan and Nanci Griffith became the defining thread of his life — and asks the big question: Do you have a soundtrack to yours?#TheDailyGrateful #MusicPodcast #SoundtrackOfYourLife #NanciGriffith #BobDylan #FrankZappa #RockAndRoll #FolkMusic #60sMusic #MichaelGross #MusicMemories #LiveMusic #ClassicRock #Nostalgia #GratefulLiving

En este episodio de Observador Paranormal, Juan Manuel Torreblanca (compositor y pianista) conversa con Juan Manuel Torreblanca y Roberto Belmont sobre la sobrenaturalidad de lo creativo: cómo el arte puede sentirse como una fuente externa, cómo los sueños pueden traer letras completas y cómo la sensibilidad musical se relaciona con el trabajo emocional. Hablan de terapia a partir de una carta astral, de la técnica Meisner y del reto de “cerrar” procesos cuando se abren emociones intensas; también de muerte, duelo y música como memoria (incluida una canción pensada para un funeral y la idea de dejar una lista de reproducción para los hijos). El episodio recorre el vínculo entre belleza y verdad en la música, referencias como PJ Harvey, Björk, Tori Amos, Fiona Apple, Jeff Buckley y They Might Be Giants, y termina con una mirada realista a la industria musical, la inspiración como disciplina y el lanzamiento del proyecto Protocolo de Caídas como una obra en actos.

The supernatural side of music: Juan Manuel Torreblanca on dreams, astrology, and the creative mystery In this episode of Observador Paranormal, Juan Manuel Torreblanca joins hosts Juan Manuel Torreblanca and Roberto Belmont for a deep, human talk about the unseen mechanics of artistry. They unpack how songwriting can feel like channeling, how dreams can seed lyrics and melodies, and how emotional work (including Meisner repetition) can open powerful inner material that requires conscious “closing” tools afterward. The episode touches on grief, funeral rituals, and leaving music as a message for children, then pivots into the tension between beauty and truth in art, with references to PJ Harvey, Björk, Tori Amos, Fiona Apple, Jeff Buckley, and They Might Be Giants. It closes with a clear-eyed view of the music industry and an update on Torreblanca's release plan for Protocolo de Caídas, structured as acts.

Being an entrepreneur is challenging, which is why you need the right mindset soundtracks. In this episode, I'm sharing three powerful soundtracks from my entrepreneur card deck that will help you build and scale your business. You'll discover why relationships get you the first opportunity but skills get you the second (and why you need both), how to balance the optimism required for dreaming with the realism needed for planning, and why you don't have to be the smartest person in the room if you're willing to be the bravest. After 13 years of running my own company and turning it into a seven figure business, I've learned that success often comes down to one thing: bravery. Not intelligence, not secrets, just the willingness to try, risk, fail, and try again. If you're building a side hustle, scaling a small business, or leading a team, this episode is for you.Grab your very own Soundtracks Card DeckMake sure to follow me on Instagram and share with your friends!Keep up with my book list on GoodReads!Sign up for my newsletter, Try This!Book me to speak at your event or to your team!You can grab a copy of my book All It Takes Is a Goal from your favorite bookstore or at my website!Sign up for the Remarkable You Community today!

In this episode, Matt Agorist and Jason Bassler are joined by Jordan Page, an American singer-songwriter and musician who has been a prominent voice in the liberty movement since 2007. A staple of the Ron Paul "R3VOLution" era, Jordan has built a career creating music centered on peace, non-interventionism, and civil liberties. Beyond his iconic musical catalog, Jordan is the CEO of the Firefly Education Network, a cutting-edge home education platform  for homeschooling, and the director of the upcoming film, The Book of Atlas. The conversation dives deep into the evolution of protest music, moving from the hopeful acoustic anthems of the early 2000s to the more defiant and aggressive tones found in tracks like "Arm Yourselves Act III." Matt and Jason reminisce about meeting Jordan at the 2018 Libertarian National Convention in New Orleans, using that moment as a benchmark to discuss how the "fire" of the movement has shifted over the last decade. Jordan also shares the history behind his track "Pendulum," explaining how it served as his first truly revolutionary song and why its message is more relevant today than ever. We also touch on the philosophy of music as a tool for subconscious awakening. Jordan then plays one of our favorite songs, "Listen," from his 2008 album, Revolution EP. We wrap up with a powerful "White Pill" session, where Jordan identifies the specific trends and generational shifts that give him hope for the future of independent thought and decentralized living.

There's something about winter that changes how music hits.The heater's blasting.The windshield's fogging up.It's dark at 4:47pm.And that one song suddenly feels cinematic.This week on Vinyl Verdicts, Chris and Rachel are reviewing six songs that just sound better in the car during winter. These aren't beach anthems or road trip bangers. These are cold-weather, night-drive, snow-under-the-streetlights kind of songs.The ones you crank before stepping out into freezing air.The ones that make a boring commute feel like a movie scene.The ones that hit different when the world outside is covered in frost.As always, we each bring three songs for the other to hear, react to, and rate — live.Playlist HERE - ⁠https://open.spotify.com/playlist/138CVGBokFcWwd23Xmtbvq?si=2b954de6497449e7

Sterling Miller knew he wanted to be a lawyer when he pulled the lawyer card while playing Life.That early realization turned into a remarkable legal career spanning private practice, in-house roles at American Airlines and Sabre, and ultimately General Counsel positions at Travelocity, Sabre, and Marketo. Today, he serves as COO, General Counsel, and Senior Counsel at Hilgers PLLC and is still very much in the game of life.Fueled by black coffee and Diet Coke (alternating, unapologetically caffeinated), Sterling has become widely known for something beyond his GC titles: his writing. In 2014, he launched Ten Things You Need to Know as In-House Counsel after realizing there was little practical, digestible guidance written specifically for in-house lawyers. What began as advice shared with younger lawyers over drinks quickly evolved into one of the most followed and respected in-house resources in the profession.The formula is straightforward and effective: take complex issues and distill them into ten things you actually need to know. That approach didn't just build a following; it led to multiple books, including The Productive In-House Lawyer: Tips, Hacks, and the Art of Getting Things Done, where Sterling dives into time management, focus, and how to operate at a high level without burning out.In this episode, Sterling talks about what it really takes to build a career with momentum. Not in a motivational-poster way — but in a practical, unglamorous, “raise your hand for the hard stuff” way. Want to be General Counsel? Volunteer for the budget work. Build the board deck. Learn how the business actually runs. Don't just be technically strong. Be indispensable.He also reflects on how in-house has evolved. What was once seen as a quieter alternative to law firm life is now a destination role. But he's clear about the tradeoffs and the importance of real training early in your career. Being in-house isn't easier. It's different. And leadership requires more than legal acumen — it requires business judgment, credibility, and trust.And because no career is one-dimensional, Sterling has also played in a band called Big Wheel (guitar, bass, harmonica, piano), writes cookbooks, devours history podcasts, and builds Halloween displays ambitious enough to require multiple storage units.Through it all, one theme keeps surfacing: persistence.If you know what you want, move toward it.If someone helped you along the way, pay it back.And if you're going to do something — whether it's writing a blog, leading a legal department, or learning a new instrument — commit to it.

Fresh off of Pepper's ghostly musical performance, our band of miscreants decides to make new connections on the train, only to make new connections about their very reality.

What kind of music motivates Daniel Handler (otherwise known as children's book author Lemony Snicket) to write bestsellers? In our first episode of 2026, the novelist behind A Series of Unfortunate Events talks about his fondness for obscure movie soundtrack cues, classical music, and songs that provide space for the imagination. Daniel's Selections: "Petition Montage" - David Newman (Heathers soundtrack, 1989) "String Quartet # 8 III. Allegretto" - Dmitri Shostakovich "Camaraderie at Arms Length" - The Caretaker (2011) "The Directories" - Howard Shore (Spotlight soundtrack, 2015) "Night Gang" - Tortoise (2025)

Welcome to part two of our five part series on soundtracks! This episode is specifically for parents with kids. I'm pulling three random soundtracks from our Parents with Kids card deck and breaking down why they matter. You'll discover why you can fast forward childhood but you can't rewind it (and what that means for decisions like when to give your kid a phone), why tired beats regretful (a soundtrack my daughter taught me when she studied abroad in London), and why family shows up (even when it's a three year old's birthday party or driving a 24 foot Penske truck down the East Coast). These aren't just nice ideas. They're the repetitive thoughts that turn into remarkable actions that turn into remarkable results. If you're a parent trying to navigate the narrow window of childhood, this episode will give you language for the culture you want to create in your family.Grab your very own Soundtracks Card DeckMake sure to follow me on Instagram and share with your friends!Keep up with my book list on GoodReads!Sign up for my newsletter, Try This!Book me to speak at your event or to your team!You can grab a copy of my book All It Takes Is a Goal from your favorite bookstore or at my website!Sign up for the Remarkable You Community today!

Still Becoming reframes healing as growth rather than recovery. The song speaks to wholeness that doesn't come from returning to who you were, but from embracing who you're becoming. It carries a hopeful, grounded message about identity, self-love, and moving forward with clarity and peace.

Episode 278This week we open with weekly catch-ups, physical media finds, podcast recommendations, and Pod Deck questions about special occasion meals and life before smartphones took over our routines. A winter storm knocks out Gregg's Wi-Fi midway through, bringing Menace in for the second half as we shift into a heartfelt conversation about comfort shows we rewatch when life feels overwhelming.At the core of the episode is an emotional rewind of Soul Food — exploring how its family dynamics, generational storytelling, and unforgettable soundtrack continue to resonate decades later. We reflect on the film's themes of love, resilience, tradition, and how music and storytelling can physically and emotionally move us across time.This episode blends 90s nostalgia, Black cinema appreciation, comfort viewing habits, and reflections on how pop culture becomes emotional refuge during stressful times.

Gurdip, Justin and John quickly gathered last night to discuss initial impressions of the soundtrack album for EPiC which is now available on all major music platforms for purchase and streaming. At the time of recording, John's the only one to have seen the film, so we're judging it based on how it works as its own cohesive presentation, keeping in mind that like all Baz Luhrmann soundtracks, it's a companion piece, but also a standalone work.  There's plenty of hubbub in the Elvis community about the remixing and re-recording of some elements for the soundtrack, but we have exclusive insights on some of the creative choices made for the film and album from Jamieson Shaw, music producer and supervising music editor on EPiC. Shaw very kindly responded to some questions we asked him via email, which John reads aloud for us on this episode (though without attempting Jamieson's Australian accent).  We also break down plenty of the new mash-ups and discover the component elements from across Elvis's catalogue that were utilized in devising these more artful reinterpretations.  We recommend checking out the soundtrack for yourself on your preferred music platform or choice or available physically on CD/vinyl from Sony Music!

Running a town is an act of stewardship — of land, money, people, and possibility.Ojai City Manager Ben Harvey joins host Bret Bradigan for a candid, wide-ranging conversation about what that stewardship looks like in practice. We unpack the real constraints of municipal governance — housing mandates, fiscal realities, and the delicate balance between preservation and change.And then we talk music.From Jonathan Richman and the Modern Lovers to Okkervil River and Damien Jurado, we reflect on how live music shapes community — and tease some exciting possibilities for Libbey Bowl this coming season.Because in Ojai, civic life isn't just policy. It's culture. It's memory. It's the shared experience of gathering under the oaks for a show.A conversation not just about how towns are run, but how they are felt.

What if three simple phrases could transform your relationship? In this episode, I'm kicking off a brand new five part series on soundtracks by diving into the couples deck. I'm pulling three cards at random and breaking down why these soundtracks matter for your marriage or relationship. You'll discover why every good relationship costs the same exact thing (hint: it's not money), why you should never, ever ask your spouse to be your accountability partner (seriously, change that setup right now if that's you), and how crisis magnifies kindness in ways you can't imagine. Plus, I'll share why you should never make big decisions when you have crisis brain and what a double thumbs up from a stranger during COVID taught me about small gestures. Whether you celebrated Valentine's Day or not, these soundtracks will help you build a stronger, healthier, more fun relationship.In This Episode:Grab your very own Soundtracks Card DeckMake sure to follow me on Instagram and share with your friends!Keep up with my book list on GoodReads!Sign up for my newsletter, Try This!Book me to speak at your event or to your team!You can grab a copy of my book All It Takes Is a Goal from your favorite bookstore or at my website!Sign up for the Remarkable You Community today!
