'Twas the night of the O3L Holiday Party, and all through the cabin The drinks were a-flowin, and the friends were a-blabbin' Meanwhile, the snow piled up, it was treacherous out there, And Bob Dylan's words rang true, you ain't going nowhere. The turntable hummed with a familiar warm crackle, As laughter rang out with a loud joyful cackle. Mixtapes were stacked by the glow of the fire, Each one tells a story, a hope, a desire. (Oh, and incidentally, cassettes melt, so that's a really bad idea.) From post-punk to new wave, these songs tell our truth, We argued what really defined the music of our youth. There were games full of nonsense, of trivia and cheer, “Did this actually happen?”—the answer unclear. But what clatter arose, and echoed all through the city It was flippin' “Word Girl” by Scritti Politti, But oh how they danced, some arguably twerked Brett was seething in the corner, like a judgmental jerk And just when they thought it couldn't get any funner, “Come on Eileen” came on, by Dexy's Midnight Runners. We all joined in on the chorus, what a jubilant sound, That is, except Uncle Gregg, but perhaps he'll come around. So settle in close as for the 6th year, Our holiday tradition is finally here. Tonight, we're all snowed in at O3L cabin So let the memories start, Let the party begin! Join Uncle Gregg and Brett for a holiday party filled with laughter, (mostly) good cheer, and plenty of holiday spirit(s) - including our friends Joshua, Kimberly (who brought along Timmy the Taxi with her!), Lance, Paul, and Matt & Stefan from Paisley Underground legends The Rain Parade. We make the most of the blizzard-like conditions, making themed mixtapes, playing brand new O3L games ("That's Soooo 2025!") and Alternativity") and spinning future holiday classics by Swansea Sound ("Not My Order"), Mossy Ledge ("Christmas Lights"), Autos ("X-Mas Eve At The Metro"), and Slow Owls ("Counting Down To Christmas"). It may be freezing outside the cabin, but inside we're gettin' LIT! Happy Holidays to you and yours from O3L! Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
How well do you know the driver of your rideshare? You don't. And you need to listen to this episode to understand what he is capable of and how to protect yourself.In this episode, we're pulling back the curtain on the risks women face in rideshares and the systemic gaps that let predators operate with impunity. Together with Susan Knape, founder of A Case for Women, we trace the data behind thousands of harassment and assault reports, the realities of underreporting, and why a nice-looking car can lull riders into a false sense of security.You'll leave this conversation with a clear safety playbook: always sit in the back, stay alert, avoid revealing personal details, confirm your pickup without saying your name, don't route to “Home,” and share your trip with someone who's watching the route and timing. We also push for real fixes—mandatory in‑car cameras, access barriers, and stronger oversight—that deter abuse and create evidence when harm occurs. If you've ever stepped into a rideshare and felt that uneasy twinge, this conversation gives you the context, tools, and resolve to protect yourself while we keep pressing for a safer system. We also challenge victim-blaming narratives, especially when rideshare companies market themselves as the “safe” alternative after drinking, and explore the heightened risks for teens, disabled riders, and passengers leaving medical procedures.Before you step into a rideshare this holiday season, you deserve to know what you are getting yourself into.

What if the lowest-hanging fruit in aviation decarbonization was not in the air, but waiting right in front of us, on the ground?This is what David Valaer, founder and CEO of Green Taxi Aerospace thinks. A pilot since the age of 16, David has spent his whole life surrounded by aircraft, either spending summers a bush pilot in Alaska, flying F-16 fighter jets for the US Air Force or, later on, scaling up and selling a successful helicopter tech company.A few years ago, David became intrigued by the possibilities that a new generation of electric motors offered to solve one of the issues of everyday commercial aircraft operations: the amount of fuel wasted while taxiing inefficiently through airports.Did you know that between 5 and 20% of fuel is consumed by airliners while they are on the ground? This happens because most of the time aircraft use their engines to move while on the tarmac, an incredibly wasteful process which in addition to producing unnecessary carbon emissions, also strains aircraft brakes and exposes the engines to foreign object damage.What if the taxiing could be done with electric motors instead? Green Taxi is working on a system that, David promises, will be able to cut down drastically the amount of fuel aircraft consumer while taxiing. Airlines could be saving in the region of $250-300k per aircraft per year if this technology is finally implemented, not to speak of the related drop in emissions and wear and tear of equipment.I was also intrigued by this story, so after speaking with David a few times at industry conferences in the last few months, I thought it was best if he could come onto the podcast to share all the details about this promising new technology that his company is developing.So, tune in for an interesting chat about what Green Taxi can do for the environment and for the bottom line of airlines! (and also for some fascinating details about David's earlier adventures in aviation!)

Today we look at another weak session for the US equity market, especially for many AI-related names, although Tesla had a banner day on hopes that its Robo-taxis are set to go driverless. We do some of the maths on robo-taxis to show why market hopes are so high - but also why the company must deliver them on a staggering scale to justify Tesla's share price. Thoughts on macro and FX ahead of key central bank meetings later this week and much more also on today's pod, which is hosted by Saxo Global Head of Macro Strategy John J. Hardy.

It's been a while since we've done an "Ask Michael Anything" on TAXI TV, so that's exactly what we're going to do on today's show! Ask me anything about TAXI, engineering & production (from the mics and wires aspect), or the music licensing business, and I'll do my best to give straight-ahead, helpful answers. Btw, I was at a session at the Foo Fighters' private studio a few days ago and had my mind blown! I'm going to tell you all about that and show you some photos of the control room, live room, guitar amps, and especially the vintage Neve recording console Dave Grohl bought from the legendary Sound City studio when it closed its doors. Other stuff I'll be talking about... Want to know how many tracks you really need before music libraries take you seriously? I get that question all the time, and frankly, the answer will surprise you! And, I'm going to tell you today. These are the types of questions I'll be happy to answer, and anything else you've got! Viewers love these episodes, and I always have fun doing them.

Ambulance services nationwide are increasingly strained by calls that are not genuine medical emergencies. Some individuals misuse ambulances as a free taxi service, calling for transport after a night out and leaving the hospital without treatment.This abuse diverts critical resources, delays responses to real emergencies, and places additional pressure on paramedics, affecting their ability to provide timely and effective care.What needs to be done to tackle this, and how does this impact paramedics trying to do their job?Joining Andrea to discuss this is Angie Baily, Councillor in Tralee, David Hall, CEO of Lifeline Ambulance, Stephen McMahon from the Irish Patients' Association and more.

Róisín Cullen speaks to people in Dublin city centre about Ireland's first women-focused taxi service
Je me souviens très bien de ma première interaction avec Franck Gastambide.Je pensais connaître son parcours. Je pensais savoir d'où il venait. J'en étais loin.J'avais en face de moi quelqu'un qui n'était pas destiné à une carrière dans le cinéma. Un gamin multidys, dernier de sa classe, élevé dans une barre d'HLM, qui ne trouvait pas sa place à l'école et qui passait davantage de temps avec des chiens qu'avec des amis. Rien, absolument rien, ne laissait penser qu'il deviendrait l'un des réalisateurs les plus bankables du pays.Et pourtant.Quand Franck parle de son parcours, il a une lucidité presque désarmante et une émotion très touchante. Il raconte les humiliations, les refus, les complexes qui le collent à la peau, les moments où il a failli lâcher. Et aussi ce tournant, celui où il comprend que personne ne viendra lui ouvrir la porte. Alors il la défonce.Les Kaïra, Pattaya, Taxi 5… puis Validé. Des projets suivis par des millions de personnes, mais qui, derrière, sont le résultat d'une volonté immense de changer sa trajectoire.Cet épisode de PAUSE est l'un de ceux qui m'a le plus marqué. Parce qu'il montre ce qu'on voit trop peu : un homme qui s'est construit sans modèle, sans réseau, sans permission. Et qui rappelle que la trajectoire n'est jamais écrite d'avance.Si vous aimez son travail, si vous attendiez avec impatience la dernière saison de Validé, ou si vous traversez une période de doute, écoutez cet échange.Il permet de rappeler une chose essentielle : le talent aide, mais la rage de s'en sortir fait souvent la différence.Hébergé par Ausha.

In this extraordinary episode of Takin’ A Walk, host Buzz Knight sits down with Oscar and Emmy-nominated documentary filmmaker Rick Korn for an intimate conversation about the power of music to transform lives,.Rick’s latest documentary, “Cat’s in the Cradle: The Song That Changed Our Lives,” explores one of the most iconic and emotionally resonant songs in American music history, revealing how Harry Chapin’s timeless classic continues to influence musicians, families, and communities decades after its release. Rick Korn has built his remarkable career around creating socially conscious documentaries that don’t just document history—they inspire people to take action and make a difference in the world. Rick has dedicated himself to telling inspiring music stories that illuminate the intersection of artistry and activism, showing how musicians can leverage their platforms to address society’s most pressing challenges. His work with legendary artists and humanitarian causes has positioned him as one of the most important documentary filmmakers working in the music space today. The conversation begins with Rick sharing the origin story of his deep connection to Harry Chapin, the singer-songwriter whose commitment to fighting hunger and poverty was as legendary as his musical talent. Harry Chapin wasn’t just a hitmaker who gave us “Cat’s in the Cradle,” “Taxi,” “W.O.L.D.,” and other chart-topping songs—he was a tireless activist who gave away an estimated half of his concert earnings to charitable causes. In 1975, Harry Chapin co-founded World Hunger Year, which later became WHYHunger, an organization that continues to fight food insecurity in 24 countries around the world, affecting millions of lives every month. His impact on the philanthropic world was so profound that he received the Congressional Gold Medal posthumously, and his legacy continues to inspire new generations of artists to use their fame for good. Rick explains how this song, written by Harry’s wife Sandy, became more than just a hit record—it became a cultural mirror that reflected back to America the consequences of misplaced priorities, the pain of missed opportunities with loved ones, and the universal struggle between career ambitions and family responsibilities. The song’s narrative about a father too busy to spend time with his son, only to find that same son too busy for him in later years, struck a chord that continues to resonate more than fifty years after its release. What makes Rick’s latest documentary so compelling is the diverse range of voices he assembled to explore the song’s impact. Billy Joel provides fascinating insights into the craft of songwriting and how “Cat’s in the Cradle” achieved something rare in popular music—a perfect marriage of melody, lyric, and universal truth that transcends generations. Billy Joel’s own relationship with Harry Chapin as a mentor and friend adds emotional depth to his reflections on the song’s enduring power. He discusses how opening for Harry Chapin’s band taught him not just about performing, but about using music as a force for positive change in the world. Rick shares the story of interviewing Darryl DMC McDaniels and being struck by the raw honesty of his reaction to “Cat’s in the Cradle.” Despite coming from a completely different musical tradition, DMC connected deeply with the song’s message about fatherhood, presence, and the choices we make about how we spend our time. The documentary also features Dee Snider of Twisted Sister, whose interview began with him declaring his dislike for acoustic music, only to confess that “Cat’s in the Cradle” was the one song that broke through his resistance. This moment perfectly illustrates the song’s unique power—it can reach people who might otherwise never connect with folk-influenced storytelling music.Support the show: https://takinawalk.com/See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Was tun, wenn die Emotionen einen immer wieder auf der Autobahn zu sich selbst in den Stau schicken? Besser die Landstraße nehmen? Warum sind wir freundlich zu Leuten die scheiße zu uns sind und warum sind wir scheiße zu Leuten die freundlich zu uns sind? Warum trauen wir uns in Situationen - ob im Taxi oder bei der Massage nicht das auszusprechen was wir wirklich wollen? Was hält uns zurück? Woher kommt diese „Angst“? Und wie erklärst du deiner Tochter, dass den BVB Adventskalender, den sie dir von ihrem Taschengeld erspart und gekauft hat, deine Freundin einfach komplett aufgefressen hat?

James L. Brooks (Ella McCay, The Simpsons, Taxi) is an Emmy, Golden Globe, and Academy Award-winning screenwriter, director, and producer. James joins the Armchair Expert to discuss being an industrious high school reporter interviewing Louis Armstrong and Anne Bancroft, his lucky break as a studio page bringing Edward R. Murrow coffee, and co-creating the Mary Tyler Moore Show with Alan Burns. James and Dax talk about why there's no better job in the world than on a television show that's working, seeing Andy Kaufman perform as the vile Tony Clifton for the first time, and that he thinks you go legally insane when directing.
