Have you ever walked around a street, mall, or airport and noticed two or three of the same franchise restaurant within walking distance? Why might one Starbucks or McDonald's or Wetzel's Pretzels sometimes be built so close to another? Are they friends or competitors? And how can that possibly be profitable?Today's show is one such example. Our pals at Hyperfixed got a knotty question we just had to help them untangle: Why are there so many Wetzel's Pretzels so close to one another at the Atlantic Avenue-Barclays Center Station?To find out, Alexi Horowitz-Ghazi followed the dough all the way to the top.

Miles 1968 : l'une des plus grandes révolutions de l'histoire du jazz. Après avoir dissout le Second Quintette (avec Wayne Shorter, Herbie Hancock, Ron Carter et Tony Williams), Miles se branche sur le courant électrique et fait entrer les guitares, les claviers, le rock et le funk dans sa musique. C'est l'une des métamorphoses les plus spectaculaires d'un Miles Davis relooké de la tête aux pieds, bien décidé à vivre avec son temps, jamais dans le passé. Jusqu'à son ultime album, Doo-Bop, Miles aura voulu être moderne, curieux, dans le coup. Du be-bop au hip-hop : une odyssée proprement vertigineuse ! Hébergé par Ausha.

Een TORcast geheel gewijd aan de muziek van Miles Davis. Miles werd honderd jaar geleden (op 26 mei 1926) geboren en ontwikkelde zich tot één van de belangrijkste musici, niet alleen in de geschiedenis van de jazz maar in die van hele hedendaagse muziek.  In deze TORcast laat Willem Habers een selectie van zijn favoriete Davis-opnames horen. Geen uitputtende opsomming, geen verantwoord chronologisch overzicht, geen doorwrocht spectrum van ’s mans invloeden en werk maar een heel persoonlijke keuze uit het gigantische oeuvre van deze jazzgigant. Playlist: So What Miles Davis (trompet), Bill Evans (piano), Cannonball Adderly (altsax), John Coltrane (tenorsax), Paul Chambers (bas), Jimmy Cobb (drums) Move met Gerry Mulligan, Max Roach, Lee Konitz, Karl Winding en John Barber (tuba) If I Were A Bell Miles Davis (tp), Red Garland (piano), John Coltrane (tenorsax), Paul Chambers (bas), Philly Jo Jones (drums) Someday My Prince Will Come Miles Davis (tp), John Coltrane (sax), Hank Mobley (sax), Wynton Kelly (piano), Psul Chambers (bas), Jimmy Cobb (drums) My Funny Valentine Miles Davis (trompet), Herbie Hancock (piano), Wayne Shorter (tenorsax), Ron Carter (bas), Tony Williams (drums) Générique – Ascenseur pour l’echafaud Miles Davis (trompet), Barney Wilen (sax), René Urtreger (piano), Pierre Michelot (bas) en Kenny Clarke (drums) Concierto de Aranjuez: Adagio Miles Davis (trompet), orkest onder leiding van Gil Evans Een paar bespiegelingen… De muziek van Miles Davis is niet slechts een hoofdstuk in de geschiedenis van de jazz; zij is een voortdurend herlezing van wat muziek kan zijn. Wie naar Davis luistert, hoort niet alleen noten, maar ook een bepaalde houding ten opzichte van tijd, stilte en vernieuwing. Zijn oeuvre lijkt zich steeds te onttrekken aan elke definitie die men erop loslaat. Dat maakt zijn betekenis filosofisch relevant: Davis laat zien dat identiteit niet iets statisch is, maar een proces van voortdurende transformatie. Een van de opvallendste kenmerken van zijn muziek is het gebruik van ruimte. In albums als *Kind of Blue* wordt stilte niet als leegte ervaren, maar als een actief element. Deze benadering roept vragen op over de aard van expressie zelf. Moet muziek altijd gevuld zijn, of kan juist het weglaten een diepere vorm van communicatie zijn? Davis' antwoord lijkt te zijn dat betekenis ontstaat in de spanning tussen klank en stilte. Daarmee sluit hij aan bij een bredere existentiële intuïtie: dat wat niet gezegd wordt, vaak even belangrijk is als wat wel wordt uitgesproken. Daarnaast belichaamt Davis het idee van artistieke vrijheid als morele houding. Hij weigerde zich te conformeren aan de verwachtingen van zijn publiek of de industrie. Telkens wanneer hij succes bereikte—of het nu ging om bebop, modal jazz of fusion—koos hij ervoor om een nieuwe richting in te slaan. In die zin is zijn carrière een praktijk van wat de filosoof Nietzsche “zelfoverwinning” noemde: het voortdurend achterlaten van het oude zelf om ruimte te maken voor het nieuwe. Deze radicale trouw aan vernieuwing maakt hem tot een bron van inspiratie voor hedendaagse musici. De invloed van Miles Davis op huidige jazzmuzikanten ligt dan ook niet alleen in specifieke harmonieën of technieken, maar in een manier van denken. Moderne jazz kenmerkt zich door hybriditeit: invloeden van hiphop, elektronische muziek en wereldmuziek vloeien samen tot nieuwe vormen. Deze openheid is rechtstreeks schatplichtig aan Davis' grensverleggende experimenten, vooral in zijn latere werk zoals *Bitches Brew*. Hij legitimeerde het idee dat jazz geen afgesloten traditie is, maar een permeabel veld waarin alles kan worden opgenomen. Ten slotte blijft Davis relevant omdat hij de luisteraar actief betrekt. Zijn muziek vraagt om aandacht, om interpretatie, om een zekere existentiële inzet. Zij is nooit volledig transparant; er blijft altijd iets ongrijpbaars. In een tijd waarin muziek vaak als achtergrondconsumptie fungeert, herinnert Davis ons eraan dat luisteren een vorm van denken is. Zo bezien is Miles Davis niet alleen een muzikant, maar een filosoof in klank. Zijn erfenis leeft voort in elke muzikant die durft te experimenteren, te twijfelen en opnieuw te beginnen—en in elke luisteraar die bereid is om in die zoektocht mee te gaan.

Miles Davis- Miles In The Sky (Columbia Records)(Released  January 16, 1968 and May 15–17, 1968)Miles in the Sky (1968) captures Miles Davis at a pivotal moment of transition. Recorded with his celebrated Second Great Quintet—Wayne Shorter, Herbie Hancock, Ron Carter, and Tony Williams—the album marks the first clear step toward Davis's electric period. Released by Columbia Records, the record introduces electric piano and electric bass into Miles's studio sound while retaining the sophisticated interplay the quintet had developed through earlier post-bop recordings. The four extended tracks blend groove-based structures with the band's advanced rhythmic freedom and conversational improvisation. Pieces such as “Stuff” and “Paraphernalia” hint at the influence of late-1960s rock and funk, while still grounded in the group's exploratory jazz language. The album stands as the final full studio statement by the Second Great Quintet and foreshadows Davis's radical electric experiments that would soon emerge on his 1969 releases In a Silent Way and Bitches Brew.

Your calendar can feel like a master, but it was never meant to replace your compass. We talk about the priority for every leader that keeps us grounded when the to do list is loud: intimate time alone with God. When we rush through prayer or treat Scripture like a box to check, we don't just lose peace, we lose perspective. Tony Williams shares a personal early-morning moment where his mind was racing, his body felt driven, and God interrupted him with a simple command that changed everything.We walk through what “time alone with God” looks like in real life: prayer, Bible reading, silence, and listening with a notebook and pen. Tony explains how Psalm 46:10, “Cease striving and know that I am God,” exposed the hidden cost of hurry for leaders. He connects that to Proverbs 3:5-6, showing how trusting God can redirect decision making, even when your instincts feel confident. One of the most practical takeaways is how quiet time can surface wisdom you miss when you lead on adrenaline.We also explore the link between spiritual leadership and health. When stress pushes your mind ahead of your body, anxiety rises and clarity drops. Tony describes how slowing down brought a measurable shift: a lower heart rate, a settled mind, and “perfect peace” that made the day's priorities clearer. We close with Matthew 6:33, seeking first God's kingdom, and the call to lead, serve, and work from the overflow of a heart occupied by the Holy Spirit. If this encouraged you, subscribe, share it with a leader who feels stretched thin, and leave a review so more people can find these leadership development insights.Send Tony a Texthttps://www.seldicompany.com/

Greetings, friends.If you've been drowning in information but starving for clarity, this conversation is a reset. We talk about guidance as a promise from God, not a lucky break, and we anchor it in Jesus' words from John 16:13: the Holy Spirit is the Spirit of truth who guides us into all truth and reveals what's ahead. For leaders, professionals, and anyone trying to make wise decisions, that changes everything. It means you're not just collecting advice or reacting to noise. You're learning to discern and to hear God with confidence.We walk through what it actually looks like to rely on the Holy Spirit for day-to-day direction: praying simple, honest prayers for truth, making space to be quiet, and expecting God to speak. We also challenge the pace that keeps many of us spiritually dull. When we stay distracted, we miss the guidance that's already available within us. When we prioritize an intimate relationship with God, we begin to recognize his voice in Scripture, in conversations, and in the moments when decisions are made.We also share a real leadership story about starting what became the SELDI Podcast with Tony Williams, expanding into a vision from God to launch The SELDI Company, Inc., and how step-by-step guidance shaped the vision, goals, and long-term impact. Along the way, we connect John 16:13 with Jeremiah 33:3, reminding you that God answers when you call, and he shows you what you don't yet know, including “what is to come.” If you're seeking Christian guidance, spiritual growth, or practical faith for your next step, don't just listen—take action. After hearing this message, set aside a quiet moment to ask God for truth and clarity about your life and career. Expect Him to respond, and be ready to follow the guidance He provides.Tony WilliamsSend Tony a Texthttps://www.seldicompany.com/

Vince Wilburn Jr. was growing up on Chicago's South Side when his mother would get him all dressed up because his Uncle Miles Davis was coming to town. Sometimes they'd see the brilliant trumpeter perform, including at the tiny Plugged Nickel club in Old Town. By the 1980s, Wilburn was playing drums in Davis' band and helping produce his albums. Wilburn now performs in Miles Electric Band (MEB) and co-manages Davis' estate, which is overseeing the Miles Davis 100 campaign to mark his uncle's 100th birthday. One major release is The Complete Live at the Plugged Nickel 1965, a 10-LP/eight-CD box set covering a legendary live engagement by Davis and his “second great quintet” (drummer Tony Williams, pianist Herbie Hancock, tenor saxophonist Wayne Shorter and bassist Ron Carter). Wilburn reflects on the band's wildly experimental approach those nights, as well as what it was like to be Davis' nephew and how he's keeping his uncle's legacy alive.

A decommissioned coal plant in Clinton, Tennessee is on track to become the site of America's first commercial stellarator fusion reactor.In this episode, Tony Williams — Executive Sponsor of the Infinity Project at the Tennessee Valley Authority — joins us to share how TVA is partnering with Type One Energy to build a proof-of-concept fusion machine inside the retired Bull Run fossil plant, with a full-scale 400-500 megawatt power plant to follow.We toured the facility and discussed what's actually changed to make fusion viable now — from Oak Ridge's exascale supercomputer cutting year-long calculations down to a single day, to advances in manufacturing and material science. Tony breaks down the economics of fusion vs. conventional generation, why TVA chose the stellarator over the tokamak, and how the project is being de-risked through a coalition of partners including Type One Energy, Oak Ridge National Laboratory, the DOE, and the University of Tennessee. We also explore what it means to repurpose aging fossil infrastructure for the next generation of energy production.Hosted by Logan Jones and Alex MercerMission Critical is proudly supported by:Valent → getvalent.comAble Construction → ableconstruct.com

He shares how growing up in his father's band prepared him for high-pressure sessions with session legends like Herbie Flowers and Ray Cooper. Protocol V & Beyond – Fresh off the acclaimed 2022 release Protocol V, Simon reveals he's already recorded Protocol Six, set to drop this spring alongside a major European tour. He discusses his new approach of road-testing material live before release, following in the footsteps of Tony Williams and his late collaborator Harami. The Music Breakdown:"Jagannath" – How a Wednesday morning trash truck inspired an Indian-influenced opener with massive sound"Undeviginti" – The story of a melody that interrupted breakfast and became a groove in 19/16 that still makes you nod your head The Band – Meet the Protocol lineup heading to Yoshi's: bassist Ernest Tibbs (since 2013), keyboardist Otmaro Ruiz, guitarist Alex Sill, and new saxophonist Philip Whack, whose Joe Henderson-esque tone brings fresh energy to the group. The Yoshi's Experience – Why Simon loves the Oakland venue's Meyer sound system, professional crew, and intimate vibe (even if he wishes they'd let him play longer sets). Gear Talk – Simon debuts a brand new Tama mahogany kit finished in green lacquer—the same kit used to record Protocol VI. Catch Simon Phillips & Protocol Live:

Kaum ein anderer Jazzschlagzeuger hat seine Bandmitglieder während ihrer Soli so kraftvoll vorangetrieben und - im besten Sinn - herausgefordert wie der US-Amerikaner Tony Williams. Und dies bereits im zarten Alter von 17 Jahren. Miles Davis, Herbie Hancock und viele andere liessen sich von den kreativen Ideen des jungen Ausnahmetalents inspirieren, das ab den 1960ern mit seiner Spielart das Jazzschlagzeug für immer veränderte. Auch der Zürcher Schlagzeuger Jonas Ruther sagt, er sei von Tony Williams beeinflusst. Er ist in dieser Jazz Collection Gast von Roman Hošek.

They are pilots Reg Mitchell and Keith Boles DFC, and navigator-wireless operators Harold “Bunny” Burrows and Martial “Sonny” Gaspard. The recording was made at the Museum of Transport and Technology in Auckland, and the guys share memories and tell stories from their days flying one of the greatest aeroplanes of all time. As well as war stories, Keith and Bunny also talk about ferrying Mosquitoes to New Zealand after the war. You will also hear Peter Wheeler ask a question too, as he sat in on the interview.
