Nesta segunda parte da conversa com a atriz Margarida Vila-Nova ficamos a saber as razões por ter amadurecido demasiado cedo, como as dificuldades pessoais a ajudaram a dar mais densidade às suas personagens e como a curta metragem que realizou a partir de uma carta deixada pelo seu pai, antes de morrer, despertou-lhe a vontade de contar mais histórias atrás das câmeras. Ainda nesta segunda parte, Margarida levanta um pouco o véu sobre o telefilme que irá filmar no último semestre deste ano, e sobre uma certa mudança profissional e pessoal que vai impor a si mesma a partir de agora. A dado momento lê um excerto da carta de despedida deixada pelo seu pai, e que inspirou a curta-metragem “Pê”, lê também dois poemas de Sophia e surpreende ainda com a leitura de uma receita de Sopa de Cação, de Maria de Lourdes Modesto. Depois revela algumas das músicas que a acompanham, deixa várias sugestões culturais e revela o seu último pensamento quando apaga a luz, antes de adormecer. Boas escutas!

This week's Talkhouse episode is particularly exciting for me, since my two guests are also two of my favorite songwriters and singers ever—and they happen to be big fans of each other. It's Matt Berninger and Eric Bachmann. Eric Bachmann was a massive part of the ‘90s indie-rock explosion as the snarling voice behind Archers of Loaf, a band that released four incredible albums in its relatively short run. But Bachmann ditched most of that genre's signifiers afterward and has spent the last quarter-century writing and recording incredible songs both under the name Crooked Fingers and under his own. His records are more in line with Tom Waits or Townes van Zandt than Pavement, and his deep catalog is worth a deep dive. You could start pretty much anywhere, so it might as well be with the brand new Crooked Fingers album Swet Deth. It's the first time Bachmann has dusted off the Crooked Fingers name in more than a decade, I'm assuming because it sounds like a more fleshed-out affair. He also invited some friends to provide backing vocals on a few tracks, including Superchunk's Mac McCaughan, Sharon Van Etten, and today's other guest, Matt Berninger of the National. Check out the Crooked Fingers song “From All Ways,” which features Berninger's distinctive voice. Fun fact: When the first two Crooked Fingers albums were reissued about 10 years ago, Bachmann asked two of his biggest fans to write the liner notes. One, I'm proud to say, was me, and the other was Matt Berninger, the intense baritone frontman of the National. As you'll hear in this chat, Matt has been a fan of Eric's since back in the Archers days. Berninger of course has had an incredible career in roughly that same timeframe, leading the National from small clubs to huge venues with a thoroughly unimpeachable catalog of smart, dark songs. (These two have those adjectives very much in common.) In addition to fronting the National, Berninger has stepped away on occasion for side projects and solo records. His latest release under his own name is Get Sunk, which came out last year. He's about to launch a Canadian tour followed by some dates in Europe—catch him if you can, the solo shows are a different vibe than the National, but no less worth your time. This wide-ranging conversation starts with a discussion of Bachmann's recent heart attack—a scary situation that's going to keep him off the road for a bit. They also talk about working together on “From All Ways” and a semi-secretive new thing that they've been hatching for the past couple of years. It's a great, deep chat between two guys who obviously admire each other's music a lot. If you're not familiar with both, I strongly suggest a deep dive. Enjoy the episode.

Father Mother Sister Brother | Sorgt der neue Jim Jarmusch für mehr als ein Schulterzucken? Laura und Stu sprechen heute über den neuen Kinofilm von Indie-Ikone Jim Jarmusch. Nach sechs Jahren Leinwandpause meldet sich der Regisseur von Klassikern wie „Down by Law“, „Dead Man“ und „Ghost Dog“ mit seinem neuesten Werk „Father Mother Sister Brother“ zurück, das am 26. Februar in den deutschen Kinos startet. Der Film ist als Triptychon angelegt und vereint ein hochkarätiges Ensemble aus Cate Blanchett, Adam Driver, Mayim Bialik, Charlotte Rampling, Vicky Krieps und Tom Waits. Erzählt werden drei eigenständige, lose miteinander verbundene Geschichten, die in unterschiedlichen Ländern spielen und sich mit den komplexen Beziehungen erwachsener Geschwister zu ihren Eltern sowie untereinander befassen. Bleibt Jim Jarmusch seinem unverkennbaren Stil treu und gelingt ihm damit sowohl die Rückkehr zu alter Stärke als auch der Anschluss an ein neues Publikum – oder richtet sich „Father Mother Sister Brother“ doch vor allem an eingeschworene Fans und Arthouse-Connaisseur*innen? Die Antwort gibt es im Podcast. Viel Spaß mit der neuen Folge vom Tele-Stammtisch! Trailer Werdet Teil unserer Community und besucht unseren Discord-Server!

The Jay Franze Show: Your backstage pass to the entertainment industry
Ever argued over what makes a voice truly unique? We go all-in on that question and discover why “unmistakable” beats “perfect” almost every time. From Cher and Sinatra to Tom Waits, Stevie Nicks, and Bob Dylan, we debate tone, phrasing, range, and the magic test: can you spot them in one note?We kick off with a left-field warm-up on Texas Roadhouse—founder geography, 34-degree cutting rooms, 36-degree beer, fresh-daily bread, and how grassroots roll drops double as smart local marketing. Then it's a tight country news sweep: Ella Langley's triple-chart moment, Jason Aldean's milestone perspective against legacy greats, the Country Music Hall of Fame's American Currents signal, the Braves Country Fest lineup, new drops from Luke Combs to Charlie Crockett, a classic country tour package, and a Lee Brice single stirring up “country nowadays” debate. The throughline is clear: country's center is widening and listeners are picking winners across lanes.Our chart check balances mainstream and indie, spotlighting why a hold at number three means something different than a quick climb to one, and how pop-country crossovers, storytelling, and rock edges share the same field. Then a rapid-fire trivia duel (rock and country) transforms fun facts into a map of genre evolution—Zeppelin's first name, Master of Puppets in 1986, who ripped the Beat It solo, Opry induction stats, Chris Gaines, and more.The mailbag brings the sharpest industry insights. Can an artist be “outlaw” with label money? What's smarter today: 20-track albums or a disciplined singles drip? Is vinyl a real revenue lane or a nostalgia-forward merch play? Who owns the masters when singers go solo—and what can they do about it? We unpack strategy, contracts, and fan behavior without the fluff.Episode LinksVonray: https://jayfranze.com/episode1/Jason Hale: https://jayfranze.com/episode55/Kyle Fields: https://jayfranze.com/episode79/Lucy Becker: https://jayfranze.com/episode86/Mark Badolato: https://jayfranze.com/episode140/Send a text Support the showLinks Jay Franze: https://jayfranze.com/ JFS Country Countdown: https://jayfranze.com/countdown/ Contact Contact: https://jayfranze.com/contact/ Socials Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jayfranze TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@jayfranze X: https://x.com/jayfranze YouTube: https://youtube.com/@jayfranze Services Services: https://jayfranze.com/services/ Books Books: https://jayfranze.com/books/ Merchandise Merchandise: https://jayfranze.com/merchandise/ Support Support: https://jayfranze.com/support/ Sponsor the Show: https://jayfranze.com/sponsor/
With Confetti In Our Hair: Celebrating The Artistry & Music Of Tom Waits
Hold On to your Pork Pie hats folks, cuz you'll be whistling down the wind with this fascinating 90 minute ride with Grammy Winning record Producer, Mixer, Engineer extraordinaire, Jacquire King. We're talkin Prairie Sun Recording and found sounds, Mexico City parking garage cassette loops and Indoneeeeesia. Tom Waits and Kathleen Brennan taught Jacquire a lot about making records when he got hired to bring his early Pro Tools mastery to one of Wait's greatest recordings - Mule Variations. Since then, Jacquire has gone on to work with Buddy Guy, Nora Jones, Kings of Leon and Zach Bryan to name a few. This is the episode all you die-hard Tom Waits fans have been waiting for, to get a sneak peak inside the carnival tent. Feel the love!!
When this Tom Waits song turned up during the closing credits of the latest “Knives Out” movie, Wake Up Dead Man, we heard shouts from all around the Floodisphere: “Whoa! What a great tune that would be for The Flood!”We agree. We only wish we'd thought of it earlier. After all, “Come On Up to the House” has been around for more than a quarter of a century, appearing as the closing track on Waits' 1999 Grammy-winning Mule Variations album. Oh, but how our late co-founder Dave Peyton would have loved to have had a piece of this goofy/gritty gospel groove!A Little Waitsian ExegesisTom Waits, one of the world's smartest songwriters, created a tune chock full of literary and philosophical references, as well as clever cultural shout-outs.Country music lovers, for instance — at least those with long memories — will recognize a kiss being tossed in Tom's repeated line in the chorus: “The world is not my home, I'm just passing through.” Don't get it? Think all the way back to 1962 and to the great Jim Reeves crooning: This world is not my home, I'm just a-passin' through My treasures are laid up somewhere beyond the blue. The angels beckon me from heaven's open door And I can't feel at home in this world anymore.But ”Come On Up to the House” has more on its agenda than simply quoting 60-year-old classics. Waits surely is the only songwriter in the house to zip from 20th century country cool to 17th century political philosophy.What? It's true. By the second verse, the lyrics are reaching back to source material predating Jim Reeves by a good three centuries. Philosophy students perk up when “House” takes a moment to direct our attention to Thomas Hobbes' famously dark assessment of human life: “Nasty, brutish and short.”A Peyton-Worthy Punch LineThe song's funniest, sassiest lines — the ones Dave Peyton certainly would have relished — have the most obscure provenance. Who doesn't smile when Waits' lyrics get to this entreaty: Come down off the cross — We can use the wood!This bit of irreverent humor generally is attributed to the late comedian/satirist Bill Hicks, whom Waits once described as being “like a reverend waving a gun around.”While there's no evidence that the “cross/wood” lines are original with Hicks — some think Lenny Bruce might have fashioned them a couple of decades earlier — it is for sure that Bill popularized the comment in his stand-up routines in the 1980s and early 1990s.And we do know that Tom Waits is a big Bill Hicks fan. In fact, a few years ago when someone asked him to compile a list of his all-time favorite albums, Tom put Hicks' 1990s Rant in E Minor in his top 20.Waits on WaitsFinally, “Come On Up to the House” also has a sample of Tom Waits sampling Tom Waits.The song's line “whipped by the forces that are inside of you” was used in another Waits' song — “Spidey's Wild Ride” — released on 2006's Orphans, Brawlers, Bawlers & B******s album. (This album compiled outtakes that were recorded from 1984 to 2005, so it is possible that song was written before “Come on Up to the House.”)For certain we know that a variation on the line came up in a 2002 newspaper article. Austin Chronicle writer Margaret Moser, interviewing Tom over the phone, asked the songwriter where he was as they spoke. “I'm out on my own recognizance in the day room,” Waits replied, “gluing pieces of macaroni on cardboard and painting it gold. After that I get to make a belt that says, ‘Whipped by the forces within me' on the back.”Ah, aren't we all, Tom? Aren't we all…?More Gospel from The Flood?If all this has you craving a little gospelizing by the boys in the band, remember The Gospel Hour playlist in The Flood's free Radio Floodango music streaming service.

Michael Blair had much training in percussion, including a degree from the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign, by the time he pulled out the marimba, congas, drums and other instruments for Tom Waits' landmark 1985 album Rain Dogs. As was the case with recent Caropop guest Mark Ribot, Rain Dogs propelled Blair to more work with Waits (including the album and Steppenwolf Theatre performances of Franks Wild Years) and projects with Elvis Costello and producers T Bone Burnett and Hal Willner. That's Blair delivering the “Don't Let Me Be Misunderstood” riff on marimba on Costello's cover of the song and playing a wild array of percussion instruments on Costello's Spike. Blair tells how he landed the drumming gig on Lou Reed's Magic and Loss and the unusual way that album's drums were recorded. He also relates how he wound up on the Replacements' All Shook Down and why he has lived in Stockholm, Sweden, for many years. (Photo by Cato Lein.)
Depois de quase um ano de novo, mais um KrameriKast Klassic. Dessa vez, trago uma peça de teatro e algumas variações dela: The Black Rider, de Tom Waits e Robert Wilson.Esse é talvez o álbum do Tom Waits que mais ouço, mas não é particularmente popular. Isso provavelmente se deve ao fato de ser uma obra teatral extremamente expressiva, em primeiro lugar, ainda que acompanhada por belíssima música de Tom Waits, com letras por ele e pelo poeta beatnik William Burroughs.Os temas incluem barganhas faustianas com o demônio, drogas, o futuro e delírio, sempre acompanhados por peculiar atuação, além da bela produção de Robert Wilson.Lembrem-se: o acordo com o diabo é sempre o acordo de um tolo!Link para assistir a peça legendada: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rzyjf9oGBBU
For this episode we're joined — all the way from Laurel Canyon — by the husband-and-wife tag team that is Jeff Walker and Kim Gottlieb(-Walker). Married for 53 years, Jeff and Kim have worked in diverse capacities in the music business and talk about their experiences over those five-plus decades. We start with the couple's work together on monthly freesheet Music World, focusing on their 1973 encounters with Tom Waits and Gram Parsons (plus a 15-year-old Cameron Crowe tagging along). After audio clips of both Waits and Parsons, we hear a 1987 clip of Gram's great singing partner Emmylou Harris talking to Adam Sweeting about... Gram Parsons. Interweaving tales of Jeff's life as a publicity director and Kim's career as a photographer, we hear about Island Records, Jamaica and the couple's close relationship with Bob Marley, concluding with Jeff's account of being with Bob after the chief Wailer was shot by gunmen in 1976. After Jasper offers his thoughts on Bad Bunny's ICE-breaking half-time show at the Super Bowl, Kim channels her late '60s protesting self and eloquently summarises her feelings about staying sane in Trump's dystopian America. Finally, Mark quotes from newly-added library interviews with Captain Beefheart (1979) and David Thomas (1985), while Jasper hails Joe Muggs' 2021 piece about Joel Culpepper. Many thanks to special guests Kim Gottlieb-Walker and Jeff Walker. Visit Kim's website at lenswoman.com and read Jeff's writing on Rock's Backpages. Pieces discussed: Tom Waits: Thursday Afternoon, Sober as a Judge, Jackson Browne, Techno-Rock: Six Teutons And What Do You Get — A Programmed Sequencer And The Doppler Effect, Emmylou Harris audio, Captain Beefheart Pulls A Hat Out of His Rabbit, David Thomas: Unscrambling the egg man and Joel Culpepper: Almost Famous.

Bright lights, louder headlines, and a legal backbone strong enough to hold the biggest cultural moment of the year. We take you past the scoreboard and into the systems that make the Super Bowl work: broadcast rights that cross borders, trademarks that protect trust, and licensing strategies that turn 15 minutes of halftime into global memory. Along the way, we unpack the real moves behind “The Big Game,” from satellite transmissions and domain seizures to creative constraints that spark better ads, cleaner stages, and fewer courtrooms.We start with the money plays—why transmissions count as public performances and how that doctrine funds the spectacle you watch on Sunday. Then we head online, where domain names masquerade as jerseys and UDRP panels yank them back before kickoff. The anti-piracy blitz gets real with Operation In Our Sites, a coordinated push that seizes illegal streaming hubs and undercuts counterfeit merch so legitimate broadcasts and brands can win the night.Advertising sits on a razor's edge. We explore the Tom Waits soundalike ruling to show how a voice can be identity, not a shortcut, and revisit the Beastie Boys' stance to prove “not an ad ad” is still advertising when it moves product. Music is protected IP even when your campaign hides outside the 30-second slot, and endorsement risk turns on what viewers feel, not what disclaimers claim. That nuance becomes a blueprint for modern marketers: leverage cultural moments without impersonating people or implying NFL sponsorship.Ambush marketing gets a fair shake, too. Courts have long allowed expressive references to major events while drawing a hard line at official-looking promotion. We share practical examples—billboards near stadiums, social posts that capture live moments, playful language aimed at parties and community—that ride the wave without borrowing league equity. And we end on the most surprising truth: halftime stays lawsuit-free not by luck, but by ruthless planning. Every song, visual, and contract is cleared early so art can soar at speed.If you care about creativity, brand safety, or the craft of putting culture on a clock, this conversation maps the terrain.

Amour, famille, maman solo, des rêves abimés, Paris, New York, Armentières, tout le monde descend ! Nos premiers invités sont Marc Nammour et Loïc Lantoine C'est l'histoire de plein d'histoires. Une ronde de personnages d'horizons multiples. Une série d'incarnations poétiques. Des fragments intimes d'hommes et de femmes portés au plateau. Onze portraits crachés à la première personne qui vont tour à tour se succéder. Voici le petit film intérieur de leurs pensées. Voici l'instantané de leurs états d'âme. Onze battements de monde présentés comme autant de miroirs de notre étrange condition. Pour la #SessionLive, Loïc et Marc se penchent sur les cas de Dylan, Bintou et Rebecca. Titres interprétés au grand studio : Rebecca Live RFI Il n'est vraiment pas pratique à attacher ce siège bébé. Par respect du public, tout terme grossier a été retiré. Mais putain, elle en a dit des gros mots Rebecca. Parce que c'est à Rebecca qu'on s'attache maintenant. Elle est une jeune maman, seule, qui s'agrippe à la vie comme à son fils. Elle s'agrippe parce que tout semble fuir autour d'elle, surtout les bonhommes. Son Papa est passé d'Haïti à Tahiti en passant par Paris, un aventurier, un cavaleur, un connard qu'elle n'a pas vraiment connu. Ahhh, ça démarre mal… Elle a cru une fois en l'amour qui ne l'a pas reconnue et depuis, elle élève seule son fils. Ahhh, ça démarre mal… Elle enchaîne les débrouilles, les boulots, une fois elle a signé un contrat en dur, un vrai, un CDI, Centre de Documentation et d'Information je crois… mais très vite, le boss s'est paraît-il barré avec la caisse. Ahhh, ça démarre mal…. Alors il faut bien vivre. Rebecca enchaîne les boulots précaires et s'est montée un petit trafic. Mais elle, elle touche pas à ces machins de drogues dures, c'est une limite. C'est malhonnête et ça fait mal au nez. Elle n'en est certes pas fière mais vous pouvez la juger, rien n'y fera. Rebecca est dure, comme sa vie. Il est vingt heures et trente, elle installe son fils, son sang, sa vie, à l'arrière de la voiture et part pour sa petite tournée. Ahhh… ça démarre pas…. Bintou Live RFI Bintou est complètement lessivée. Il est vingt heures et trente et elle se met péniblement au lit. Elle a mal partout et la nausée ce soir reprend de plus belle. Le doc lui avait bien dit que ça allait être pénible, qu'il allait falloir s'accrocher et que le moral jouait beaucoup dans sa guérison. Elle sait que ça va être long mais Bintou n'a pas l'intention de se laisser faire. Trente-cinq ans c'est beaucoup trop jeune. Après la stupeur et la désolation à l'annonce de la mauvaise nouvelle, elle suit à présent le protocole médical rigoureusement. Avant d'éteindre la lumière, elle regarde comme tous soirs le dessin d'une de ses nièces qu'elle a accroché au mur où il est écrit : « Tata Bintou t'es la plus forte, j'ai hâte de te revoir cet été. Je pense à toi tous les jours. Gros gros bisous. Hawa ». Elle a dû lire ce mot des centaines de fois depuis le début du traitement. Comme un mantra. Et heureusement qu'elle est bien entourée Bintou. Elle a au moins cette chance. Elle en a pris de la force. Elle en reçoit de l'amour. Après cinq mois de baston, elle s'est fait à l'idée de se transformer en amazone… et quitte à en devenir une, elle sera une amazone avec grave de style… Dylan Live RFI Le problème avec Dylan, c'est que ça s'écrit comme ça se prononce mais pas toujours… Entendons-nous bien ! Ça s'écrit comme ça devrait se prononcer mais parfois ça dérape. Et au vu, enfin à l'écoute, du conditionnel qui vient de passer, vous avez deviné, lui c'est Djylan. Ça se fait beaucoup dans le nord où il a grandi. Ça donne un petit peu de peps au prénom et qui sommes-nous pour juger ! Il est vingt heures et trente et Djylan, il est parti fumer, un peu en cachette, c'est plus chouette. Il y a un étang pas loin. Djylan il est pas très vieux, il a pas fait sa majorité, il a plus trop de boutons et puis ça l'inquiète pas. Ce qui l'inquiète, c'est autre chose, c'est le monde et ce qu'il s'agirait d'en faire. Mais trop souvent, il s'agit de ce qu'on lui dit, hurle, impose qu'il s'agirait d'en faire. Lui, il voudrait avoir dans les mains un avenir malléable et doux (hop, je le mets comme ça, c'est joli) mais les autres ont sorti les moules et ils sont durs. On lui invente des devoirs et des interdictions. On lui réclame de l'ambition. Mais pour Djylan, l'ambition c'est jamais que du rêve abîmé et lui en rêves, il est plutôt pas mal. Alors des fois, sa tête pourrait exploser. Il crie, un peu, non, fort ! Un coup à shooter dans des rats musqués… mais c'est risqué ! Line Up : Marc Nammour (rap) & Loïc Lantoine (rap).

Puis nous recevons Barbara Forstner pour la sortie de Long Long Gone Franco-américaine, Barbara Forstner a passé douze ans à New York avant de poser ses valises en France. De son parcours transatlantique, elle garde une passion pour la scène folk et country américaine, qu'elle mêle à une écriture sensible et habitée. Après un premier EP avec son groupe October Baby (The End, paru en juin 2024) et un album remarqué, Nowhere at All, sorti en novembre de la même année, la chanteuse revient aujourd'hui avec son premier album solo, Long Long Gone. Ses morceaux, au climat très cinématographique, invitent à pénétrer son univers. Élevée dans un environnement artistique, Barbara a grandi bercée par les disques de ses parents : Bob Dylan, Sixto Rodriguez et Tom Waits du côté de son père ; Barry White, Al Green ou Simple Minds du côté de sa mère. Très tôt, elle forge son propre panthéon musical, allant de Nick Drake à Cat Power, de Feist à Big Thief. Chaque titre de Long Long Gone a été capté en une seule prise, pour préserver la vérité de l'instant. Elle soigne aussi l'aspect visuel de son univers, créant elle-même ses visuels à partir de dessins, photographies et collages graphiques. Enregistré en juin 2025 à Paris avec son ami ingénieur du son Léo Aubry, Long Long Gone se présente comme un disque acoustique, brut et vulnérable. Barbara y aborde l'amitié, l'amour, la famille, mais aussi la beauté fragile et la mélancolie du monde. Écrit entre New York et Paris, l'album explore l'amour perdu, les amitiés qui s'érodent, la vie à l'étranger et les rencontres éphémères. Titres interprétés au grand studio : - To see the World (en duo) Live RFI - Building a Home, extrait de l'album - East Coast (en solo) Live RFI.

Amour, famille, maman solo, des rêves abimés, Paris, New York, Armentières, tout le monde descend ! Nos premiers invités sont Marc Nammour et Loïc Lantoine C'est l'histoire de plein d'histoires. Une ronde de personnages d'horizons multiples. Une série d'incarnations poétiques. Des fragments intimes d'hommes et de femmes portés au plateau. Onze portraits crachés à la première personne qui vont tour à tour se succéder. Voici le petit film intérieur de leurs pensées. Voici l'instantané de leurs états d'âme. Onze battements de monde présentés comme autant de miroirs de notre étrange condition. Pour la #SessionLive, Loïc et Marc se penchent sur les cas de Dylan, Bintou et Rebecca. Titres interprétés au grand studio : Rebecca Live RFI Il n'est vraiment pas pratique à attacher ce siège bébé. Par respect du public, tout terme grossier a été retiré. Mais putain, elle en a dit des gros mots Rebecca. Parce que c'est à Rebecca qu'on s'attache maintenant. Elle est une jeune maman, seule, qui s'agrippe à la vie comme à son fils. Elle s'agrippe parce que tout semble fuir autour d'elle, surtout les bonhommes. Son Papa est passé d'Haïti à Tahiti en passant par Paris, un aventurier, un cavaleur, un connard qu'elle n'a pas vraiment connu. Ahhh, ça démarre mal… Elle a cru une fois en l'amour qui ne l'a pas reconnue et depuis, elle élève seule son fils. Ahhh, ça démarre mal… Elle enchaîne les débrouilles, les boulots, une fois elle a signé un contrat en dur, un vrai, un CDI, Centre de Documentation et d'Information je crois… mais très vite, le boss s'est paraît-il barré avec la caisse. Ahhh, ça démarre mal…. Alors il faut bien vivre. Rebecca enchaîne les boulots précaires et s'est montée un petit trafic. Mais elle, elle touche pas à ces machins de drogues dures, c'est une limite. C'est malhonnête et ça fait mal au nez. Elle n'en est certes pas fière mais vous pouvez la juger, rien n'y fera. Rebecca est dure, comme sa vie. Il est vingt heures et trente, elle installe son fils, son sang, sa vie, à l'arrière de la voiture et part pour sa petite tournée. Ahhh… ça démarre pas…. Bintou Live RFI Bintou est complètement lessivée. Il est vingt heures et trente et elle se met péniblement au lit. Elle a mal partout et la nausée ce soir reprend de plus belle.

I first noticed Marc Ribot's slinky, spiky guitar playing as “Jockey Full of Bourbon,” from Tom Waits' Rain Dogs, slithered over the opening of Jim Jarmusch's Down By Law. Rain Dogs was a breakthrough for Ribot, who previously had played in Brother Jack McDuff's soul-jazz band, backed Wilson Pickett and Solomon Burke, and been a member of the Lounge Lizards. More Waits collaborations followed, as did work with Elvis Costello, Sam Phillips, McCoy Tyner, Yoko Ono, Robert Plant and Allison Krauss, Elton John and Leon Russell, and many others. Here Ribot reflects on his robust studio-musician and solo career; his love of Latin American music; the creative leeway that Waits, Costello and others gave him; the impact of producers such as T Bone Burnett and Hal Willner; his decision to sing lead for the first time on his long-gestating 2025 album, Map of a Blue City; and his fight for indie musicians' rights with the Music Workers Alliance.

Snowed in, chili on the stove, and toxic romance on the screen. This week on the Binge-Watchers Podcast, Johnny Spoiler dives headfirst into Romeo Is Bleeding (1993), the sleazy neo-noir crime thriller starring Gary Oldman, Lena Olin, and Roy Scheider—a movie where everyone betrays everyone and nobody gets out clean.Before the blood hits the subway tiles, Johnny rants about hating snow, surviving real-life blizzards, bikini porch dives, and why small victories matter when winter tries to kill you. Then it's Home Video Headlines, including Dragon Ball Super news, DCU Batman rumors, a possible Darkman sequel, and three essential dead-of-winter thrillers: Wind Chill, The Last Winter, and Dead of Winter.The main event breaks down Romeo Is Bleeding—a corrupt NYC cop seduced by a ruthless Moscow crime boss—with behind-the-scenes facts, Tom Waits trivia, brutal mob moments, courtroom chaos, and why Lena Olin's Mona feels like a loaded gun aimed at the audience for the entire runtime. We talk broken ribs, real stunts, moral emptiness, and why this movie insists that redemption is a lie life doesn't care about.Johnny wraps it up with favorite bits, a Binge Later rating, unfiltered He-Man discourse, staff picks (Code 3, not The Smashing Machine), and a closing that legally has to reference Closing Time.If you love neo-noir thrillers, Gary Oldman performances, toxic romance movies, mob betrayals, and dark 90s crime films that feel like they hate you personally—this episode is for you.Get Meatzy https://tr.ee/GetMeatzyJohnnyDrink Olipop use code BWPOD https://tr.ee/PopJohnny
We caught up with unique indie artist Robert Deeble to talk about his new release “The Space Between Us” coming out February 6th. Roberts story driven lyrics and production have a classic vibe with a modern twist. Robert Deeble's spirit-infused lyrics are paired with a subtle, minimalist style that echoes old folk heroes like Leonard Cohen and Nick Drake. His first album, released with his band, Days Like These, was a critical success and featured a duet with Victoria Williams, "Rock A Bye." Days Like These never performed outside of the L.A. area and disbanded soon after their first release. His second album, a solo effort entitled Earthside Down, was released in 1998 and featured the production work of Anthony Arvizu and Stephen Hodges (best known for his drum work with Tom Waits). They helped augment Deeble's spare sound with cellos, timpani, gongs, and electronic elements, creating a sound that treads a line between folk and ambient music. ~ Stacia Proefrock, Rovi Robert's links www.hyperfollow.com/RobertDeeble www.Youtube.com/@Robert.deeble About Music Matters with Darrell Craig Harris The Music Matters Podcast is hosted by Darrell Craig Harris, a globally published music journalist, professional musician, and Getty Images photographer.

Author Héctor Tobar explores the meanings and myths of the term "Latino" in his sixth book Our Migrant Souls; comedian and writer Jena Friedman (Borat Subsequent Moviefilm) chats about her debut collection of essays Not Funny and recounts the time she put her foot in her comedic mouth; and indie folk trio Joseph performs a cover of Tom Waits' song "Come On Up to the House."
This week, Julia reports back from the screening she attended of "Father Mother Sister Brother", the latest from "Ghost Dog" writer/director Jim Jarmusch. "Father Mother Sister Brother" is an anthology dramedy starring Tom Waits, Adam Driver, Mayim Bialik, Charlotte Rampling, Cate Blanchett, Vicky Krieps, Sarah Greene, Indya Moore, and Luka Sabbat. Julia and John discuss the film and take another stab at what makes a Jarmusch film a Jarmusch film, the career of Tom Waits, great casting, and some of their favorite anthology films.
Visit: www.salty.com.au BACKLINE is back for January tone hounds. We roll from raw modern blues and roots through to the deep catalogue — Eddie Taylor talking big-town truths, Johnny Winter cutting sharp, Jimmie Vaughan riding that groove like he always does. There's plenty of local fire running through this set too — Ash Grunwald, Stefan Hauk, Damon Smith, Fiona Boyes with Chris Wilson and Hubert Sumlin, Dan Dinnen N Shorty, Dom Turner with Kim Sinh, and Mia Kelly — all flying the flag with new cuts, live grit and boundary-pushing spirit that still respects the lineage. Add Bill Frisell bending Marvin Gaye into something new, Violent Femmes kicking the walls in, and Tom Waits reminding us how to hold on — and you've got a playlist that moves from backroom blues to late-night confessionals. This isn't background music — it's listening music!

In the very adult comic drama "Is This Thing On?" Will Arnett plays a man who tries out standup comedy as a way to cope with his impending divorce. Strong performances by Arnett and Laura Dern propel this empathetic tale, well directed by Bradley Cooper, who also has a funny supporting role. A number of noted comics appear as cynical versions of themselves. While fictional, the movie inspired by the true story of British standup comic Jim Bishop. Arnett's foul-mouthed comedy material isn't really all that funny but still rings true. "Is This Thing On?" should appeal to those not easily offended. What's really being said when estranged family members engage in awkward 'small talk?' Indie film darling Jim Jarmusch offers a suggestion in "Father Mother Sister Brother," three unrelated stories of family dysfunction. The strong cast includes Adam Driver, Tom Waits, Mayim Bialik, Charlotte Rampling and Cate Blanchett. Surprisingly, this restrained and subtle drama was the big winner at the 2005 Venice Film Festival. The talented cast helps a lot, but “Father Mother Sister Brother” is one that will probably only appeal to fans of Jarmusch's slow, low-key style. Lucy Liu's impressive performance is the main draw of the excruciating true story "Rosemead" which is based on a 2017 article from the Los Angeles Times. Liu plays a widow suffering from terminal cancer who is forced to decide what to do with her teenage son who's struggling with schizophrenia. The intent is admirable, and the execution is competent enough. But “Rosemead” is a hard watch that offers no easy answers. It's tragic and depressing in equal measure.
Back in 1986, Tim Blake Nelson was a drama student at Julliard when he saw Jim Jarmusch's sophomore feature, DOWN BY LAW. Tom Waits (who would continue to work with Jarmusch, and is starring in his latest film) plays a regular unlucky joe, and does it as no typical Hollywood star could. It was a path into the world of movies that Nelson could see himself following, if he got the chance (which he did). Today, you can see the great Tim Blake Nelson in Mona Fastvold's THE TESTAMENT OF ANN LEE, which stars Amanda Seyfried.Then Jordan has one quick thing about a great action cinema primer that's fun for action heads and would-be action fans alike: @HeadExposure's Action Year in Review.

This week on the Exciting & New podcast, Jason, Andy and Dana welcome Zach back on the show as we kick off 1986 with the B&W indie flick, Down By Law. In this one, three escaped convicts escape prison into the Louisiana bayou (eventually) and find friendship. Or something like that. It takes a little while to get there and this is not one of those movies most of us even knew about, but Tom Waits is the draw and we had a great time discussing this one. If there are any 1986 movies you love and want to discuss, drop us a message to come on the show! Enoy the podcast.Jason, Andy and Dana will discuss a 1986 movie weekly, breaking down all the nonsense there within. The 3 hosts all work together and everyone else around them was getting really annoyed at all the movie talk, so they decided to annoy the world in podcast form.Check out previous seasons to hear them discuss 1982, 1983, 1984 & 1985 movies, as well as a full season of Love Boat episodes (if that is your thing).

Following our Muppet version of the film, and in the spirit of not doing too much work over Crimbo, we're looking at “Bram Stoker's Dracula”. A film in which Ted goes on a less than excellent adventure; Withnail keeps Tom Waits on a remarkably protein-rich diet; and Hannibal Lecter clearly cannot be arsed having just won an Oscar. Unleashed with much fanfare in 1992, director Francis Ford Coppola wanted to bring to the screen a definitive version of Stoker's novel (except for all the extra bits he bunged in for good measure). This ambition weirdly highlights some of the pitfalls of a faithful adaptation, with a number of characters usually dispensed with or amalgamated in other versions left to clutter up the narrative. It features what is a genuinely stellar cast both for now and then, but with some actors not necessarily suited to their roles. However, it's still Coppola, so it still remains a well-made, beautifully shot gothic romance; which certainly equals the novel for pace and drama, and even adds some iconic imagery to the old myth which is still appearing over 30 years after the film's release.
Maggie & John C. Reilly discuss “What's Not to Love?” Mister Romantic's debut album out now on Eternal Magic Recordings is a collection of beloved songs from the American Songbook reimagined by Reilly and his Grammy-winning band. “What's Not To Love?” was recorded in 2024 in Los Angeles at Nest Recorders and was co-produced by Reilly and Davíd Garza. In addition to Garza on piano and guitar, the band also includes Gabe Witcher on violin, Sebastian Steinberg on bass, and Charles De Castro on accordion and cornet. CREATED BY JOHN C. REILLY“I looked at our weary world a few years ago and tried to think of a way I could spread love and empathy. I decided the most fun way to do that was through performing and singing and telling people I love them…so the emotional vaudeville show Mister Romantic was born, out of both hope and despair.”From studying theater as a kid growing up in Chicago, to amateur clowning as a teen and studying acting at The Theatre School at DePaul University, to his Oscar-nominated role starring in the film adaptation of Chicago and beloved performance starring in Walk Hard: The Dewey Cox Story, to his TONY-nominated performance in Sam Shepard's True West, and more, theater and music have been pillars of John's career. What's Not To Love? is a collection of gorgeous renditions of songs from the Great American Songbook backed by a band of multiple GRAMMY®-winners. On lead single “Dream” Reilly delivers a gentle, dreamy sea-side cover of the 1944 Johnny Mercer song, which has previously been recorded by Frank Sinatra and Roy Orbison.The album was recorded in 2024 in Los Angeles at Nest Recorders and was co-produced by Reilly and Davíd Garza (Fiona Apple, Sharon Van Etten). In addition to Garza on piano and guitar, the band also includes Gabe Witcher on violin (Punch Brothers, Rosanne Cash), Sebastian Steinberg on bass (Fiona Apple, Phoebe Bridgers), and Charles De Castro on accordion and cornet (Keb' Mo'). The 13 tracks include a pair of Irving Berlin songs, a trio of Tom Waits songs and many songs made famous by Louis Armstrong, Frank Sinatra, Jo Stafford and more. Reilly and this special band reimagine and re-embrace these beloved tunes and bring them again to another generation.About the Live Show:Prepare to be captivated by the incomparable John C. Reilly in Mister Romantic, a vaudeville show that has already garnered critical acclaim and captured the public's imagination. The New York Times calls the show "wryly funny, sometimes tender and sad, but always sincere" and Vanity Fair describes it as “fiercely funny” and says "John C. Reilly is one hell of a singer." Mister Romantic asks you to open your heart to the love all around you and marks a new chapter in Reilly's acclaimed career.

There have been a lot of good to great films released this year - serious films, films with urgent political underpinnings, films that mix satire, pathos, and artistic ambition with such style that it salves my damaged psyche with a hope that there will be a light at the end of this dark tunnel in which we currently find ourselves. While there is a mordant undertone to many of these transmissions, there is also an implicit message from these artists that life will go on, and there is always love, joy, and gratitude to celebrate at the end of the year.TRAIN DREAMS is such a declaration. Based on a novel by Denis Johnson, the film is a metaphysical meditation on ragged survival through unimaginable grief, and it encompasses all of life and death throughout its dreamscape of primeval imagery. Following the trail of tears of a misbegotten railroad logger, Joel Edgerton delivers the performance of a lifetime, and in the cameo of a wizened old timer-philosopher in the camp, William H Macy transforms to such a degree that he caps his distinguished resume with an Oscar worthy supporting performance. The Splendid Bohemians nominate this darkhorse masterpiece for film of the year, and would like to honor it today by playing Nick Cave's Train Dreams theme, along with 2 versions of Jackson Browne's Shadow Dream Song (by Gregg Allman and Tom Rush), and Tom Wait's Innocent When You Dream.

Min 2: ANACONDA (3 estrellas) Anaconda, dirigida por Tom Gormican (El talento de Mr. C), es una comedia metacinematográfica que toma el título del clásico de terror noventero como excusa para construir una sátira deslenguada sobre Hollywood, la nostalgia y la absurda maquinaria del remake. Protagonizada por Paul Rudd y Jack Black, la película sigue a dos profesionales en horas bajas que aceptan participar en una delirante reimaginación de Anaconda, convencidos de que puede ser su última oportunidad para volver a estar en el mapa. Min 10: BOB ESPONJA: AVENTURA PIRATA (3 estrellas) Bob Esponja: Aventura Pirata, dirigida por Derek Drymon (veterano creativo del universo Bob Esponja desde sus orígenes televisivos), devuelve al personaje al largometraje con una aventura de gran escala que recupera el espíritu gamberro y surrealista que lo convirtió en icono generacional. Con las voces originales encabezadas por Tom Kenny, junto a Bill Fagerbakke, Rodger Bumpass y Clancy Brown, la película sitúa a Bob y sus inseparables amigos en una travesía marítima marcada por mapas imposibles, piratas extravagantes y una amenaza que pone en jaque el equilibrio de Fondo de Bikini. Min 15: FATHER MOTHER SISTER BROTHER (4 estrellas) 'Father Mother Sister Brother', escrita y dirigida por Jim Jarmusch (Paterson, Only Lovers Left Alive), es una obra episódica, minimalista y profundamente humana que articula tres historias independientes unidas por los vínculos familiares, la soledad y el paso del tiempo. Protagonizada por un reparto coral que incluye a Cate Blanchett, Adam Driver, Tom Waits, Mayim Bialik y Charlotte Rampling, la película se despliega en distintos lugares y tonos, manteniendo siempre el pulso contemplativo y el humor seco característico del cineasta. Jarmusch observa a sus personajes con distancia afectuosa, dejando que los silencios, los gestos mínimos y las conversaciones aparentemente intrascendentes revelen heridas emocionales y tensiones soterradas entre padres, madres, hermanos y hermanas que apenas saben comunicarse. Min 21: HOMO ARGENTUM (3 estrellas) Homo Argentum, dirigida por Mariano Cohn y Gastón Duprat (El ciudadano ilustre, Competencia oficial), es una sátira feroz y elegante que radiografía, a través del humor incómodo, las contradicciones morales y sociales de la Argentina contemporánea. Protagonizada por un camaleónico Guillermo Francella, la película se articula en episodios autónomos que retratan a distintos personajes unidos por una misma pulsión: el individualismo extremo, la picaresca elevada a norma y la supervivencia como único código ético. Cohn y Duprat utilizan el formato fragmentado para multiplicar puntos de vista y situaciones, construyendo un espejo deformante en el que la risa nace del reconocimiento y la incomodidad. Min 28: LA PELÍCULA DE TU VIDA, CON ROBERTO LANCHA A las puertas del nuevo año, casi sobre la campana, llega el turno de conocer la confesión cinéfila del director de Estamos de Cine. El periodista de Radio Castilla-La Mancha y crítico especializado, Roberto Lancha, desvela en pleno Filtro Liuchini por qué "El Padrino 1 y 2", entendidas como un todo, es el título que marcó su adoelscencia y, por extensión, su amor por el cine y por la comunicación vinculada al Séptimo Arte. Min 38: BSO ESPECIAL BSO EL PADRINO Y dado que la elección del director de Estamos de Cine enlaza con una de las bandas sonoras más celebradas de la historia del cine, la cita con Ángel Luque en la finca familiar de Los Corleone -en un entorno privilegiado de Long Island- se convierte en todo un homenaje musical a una de las mejores películas de todos los tiempos.
Whitney, Collin, and Doug wrap up Volume I of Stranger Things 5 with 'Chapter Four: Sorcerer'. The Duffers call it "the most logistically insane shoot of our lives," so there's obviously plenty to talk about, including hovering demogorgons, Derek's redemption, and (of course) Will's new propensity for nosebleeds. Plus– Music, Tire Peel-Outs, Where in the World Is…?, and Superlatives! Put on your crisp white Tom Waits t-shirt and join us!

THE OLD MAN & THE GUN (2018) feels less like a typical crime movie and more like a gentle farewell not just to a character, but to an entire Hollywood era. Directed by David Lowery, the film stars Robert Redford as Forrest Tucker, a lifelong bank robber whose crimes are defined not by violence, but by charm, politeness, and an irresistible love of the game. As the final entry in our Robert Redford Arc, this episode explores why THE OLD MAN & THE GUN works as a perfect swan song. The film distills everything that made Redford an icon: effortless charisma, moral ambiguity, romanticism without sentimentality, and a deep understanding of aging, obsession, and identity. What emerges is a crime story with almost no tension and yet carries enormous emotional weight. Lowery shoots the film on Super 16mm, giving it the texture and warmth of a 1970s classic, while Redford delivers one of his most restrained and expressive performances. Paired with a beautifully understated turn from Sissy Spacek, and supported by a stacked cast that includes Casey Affleck, Danny Glover, and Tom Waits, the film becomes a meditation on what it means to keep doing the thing you love even when the world tells you it's time to stop.

This episode of The Other Side of the Bell, featuring trumpeter performer and recording artist Paul Litteral, is brought to you by Bob Reeves Brass. This episode also appears as a video episode on our YouTube channel, you can find it here: "Paul Litteral trumpet interview" Find the expanded show notes, transcript and more photos here: https://bobreeves.com/blog/paul-litteral-trumpet-interview-the-other-side-of-the-bell-147 About Paul Litteral: Hollywood Paul Litteral began to build his career playing in Broadway hits such as The Best Little Whorehouse in Texas, A Chorus Line and Chess. In 1978, Paul and saxophonist Arno Hecht founded the well-known group called the Uptown Horns. As their visibility increased, the band was recruited for rock and roll gigs and played many of New York's most famous clubs. Paul and the Uptown Horns went on their first rock and roll tour with the J. Geils Band in 1981 and that led to many other opportunities including engagements with The Rolling Stones, Robert Plant, Tom Waits, Joe Cocker, James Brown, Pat Benatar, and Ray Charles. The band lists recording credits on over 150 albums including James Brown's Grammy Award winning "Living in America" and tracks for Joe Cocker, Albert Collins, Bonnie Raitt, Robert Palmer, Lou Reed and REM. In addition to continuing to play music, he began writing and found critical success with Hoboken to Hollywood, which earned him the 2011 Ovation Award for Musical Direction. Paul was also awarded Best Musical Direction by Stage Scene LA for Louis & Keely: Live' at the Sahara, which had a record run, playing to sold out audiences at the Geffen Playhouse. "Hollywood" Paul earned his nickname back in the 1980's due to his prodigious knowledge of film lore. Though his extensive contributions to the LA music scene have also helped add to that fabulous moniker. Paul's fame is within the world of Rock and Roll. On his latest album, "The Litteral Truth," he brings us a collection of songs that inspired his personal musical development. The Brecker Brothers, Edgar Winter and Steely Dan are a few of the artists we cover on the record, and revisiting these great cuts and reinterpreting them was a joyous excursion for all involved. Paul is a fun and talented man, and his records are spreading the joy of knowing him. -Bill Bodine Episode Links: Outrageous 8 Records Find the albums here: The Litteral Truth Legacy Instagram (@paullitteralmusic) YouTube channel The Other Side of the Bell Episode #92 - Paul Litteral (first appearance) Bob Reeves Brass Upcoming Events and Appearances: Trumpet Festival of the Southeast, Jan. 17, 2026, Kennesaw State University, Georgia Texas Music Educators Association Conference, Feb. 11-14 2026, San Antonio, Texas Dylan Music, Feb. 26-28, Woodbridge, New Jersey Podcast Credits: "A Room with a View" - composed and performed by Howie Shear Podcast Host - John Snell Cover Photo Credit - Paul Litteral Audio Engineer - Ted Cragg
This week we're excited to present a conversation from the 63rd New York Film Festival with Father Mother Sister Brother director Jim Jarmusch and cast members Adam Driver, Indya Moore, Luka Sabbat, Vicky Krieps, and Tom Waits. This conversation was moderated by NYFF Artistic Director Dennis Lim. The NYFF63 Centerpiece selection, Father Mother Sister Brother will open at Film at Lincoln Center on December 24. Get tickets at filmlinc.org/jarmusch For years, Jim Jarmusch has written, directed, and produced delicate, character-driven films. Winner of the Venice Film Festival Golden Lion, Father Mother Sister Brother is a perceptive study in familial dynamics, a feature film carefully constructed in the form of a triptych. The three chapters all concern the relationships between adult children reconnecting or coming to terms with aging or lost parents, which take place in the present, and each in a different country. Siblings Jeff and Emily (played by Adam Driver and Mayim Bialik) check up on their hermetic father (played by Tom Waits) in rural New Jersey; sisters Lilith and Timothea (Vicky Krieps and Cate Blanchett) reunite with their guarded novelist mother (Charlotte Rampling) in Dublin; and twins Skye and Billy (Indya Moore and Luka Sabbat) return to their Paris apartment to address a family tragedy. Father Mother Sister Brother is a kind of anti-action film, its subtle and quiet style carefully constructed to allow small details to accumulate—almost like flowers being carefully placed in three delicate arrangements. The 63rd New York Film Festival is presented in partnership with Rolex.

Today, we feature a Christmas cracker that offers some new perspectives on one of our most treasured holiday traditions - The Xmas Song: First, The Turtles, singing “Christmas is My Time of Year,” then, the esteemed actor, Harvey Keitel, telling an off the wall Christmas story, from the film Smoke.Putting on a favorite holiday tape or CD as you wrap the presents or trim the tree was always a highly anticipated ritual - Frank, Dino, Elvis, or Bing never failed to make the season bright. In the 60's Rock era, of course, Phil Spector's album was a must. Every pop artist has made one, even Bob Dylan. It made Irving Berlin and Mel Torme millions. It's generally a can't miss proposition. But, I'll bet you never considered these selections. One isn't even a song; and then there's the Turtles number, which is seemingly on the money, but not universally known. THE TURTLES"Christmas is My Time of Year" was written by the jewish Howard Kaylan and the Turtle's bassist and veteran of the Modern Folk Quartet, Chip Douglas. Douglas also produced, populating the recording with such country rock luminaries as Gram Parsons and Linda Ronstadt. The track has a folksy flair with its twangy guitars and dobros. It's military 4 on the floor marching beat gives it an overly perky, trying too hard feel, but it's still a lot of fun - and that's the mark of a good Turtles song. isn't it?: always promoting optimism and good feelings. Even when they're singing dark material like PF Sloan's “Let Me Be” the music counterpoints the dreariness with sunshine.HARVEY KEITEL in SMOKERich threw this curveball into the mix, and I LOVE IT! Mr. Keitel has always been a favorite of ours - and in this clip from Wayne Wang's Smoke he knocks it out of the park with this shaggy holiday story negotiating the mixed up urges of conscience and larceny. At the end of the segment there is a black and white rendering of the story accompanied by Tom Waits, singing “Innocent when you Dream”.And, it's here that the overall theme emerges: Christmas is that time when we aspire to live up to our best selves. But, there are so many contradictory images that interfere with this aspiration. We are exhorted to consume, going into debt for the good of the economy, and to our peril. All around us we might notice that the lonely and disenfranchised are suffering worse than ever during this time. So, we look away, trying not to face the disturbing prospect that it could be us next year. We're only human, after all - but, to be better more than just one day out of the year shouldn't be asking too much. But, how to begin?
Happy birthday Tom Waits! This year, inspired by the new Knives Out, we're talking about Tom's songs in movies and TV. From The Wire to Beavis and Butt-Head, I'm covering the things I like! Also, with the help of AI, we determine whether or not Tom Waits is Hellboy.

John C. Reilly joins to discuss Mr. Romantic, his theatrical tribute to the Great American Songbook that treats Irving Berlin and Tom Waits as equals in the canon of timeless American song. Reilly recorded live in one room with his band using vintage ribbon microphones, embracing the squeaks and imperfections while layering in cinematic sound effects—crickets outside a lover's window, a collect call from prison—to transform each standard into an immersive scene. But what makes a song from the 1920s feel eternal? Music data scientist Chris Della Riva, author of the forthcoming Uncharted Territory and the newsletter Can't Get Much Higher, breaks down how composers like the Gershwins wrote for amateur musicians playing sheet music at home, creating universal lyrics and AABA structures where the hook comes first. That accessibility is precisely what draws Reilly to this repertoire. He sees himself in the lineage of interpreters like Sinatra, not selling his own story but passing along music that already belongs to all of us, like holding up a seashell and saying, "Isn't this one beautiful?"
