C'est dans cette zone nébuleuse entre le jazz et le rock'n'roll que nous vous emmenons aujourd'hui, à une époque où les frontières n'existaient pas entre swing, rhythm'n'blues et rock'n'roll, tant que les guitares et contrebasses, avec ou sans cuivres, vous... Continue Reading →

C'est un twang sauvage qui donne le ton de l'émission du jour. Aucun message, aucune performance vocale, seulement des vagues instrumentales de lignes boogie réverbérées jusqu'à une conclusion mélancolique sur des prénoms féminins énigmatiques.Qu'Elvis vous bénisse, que Johnny Cash point...

"This is also me saying here's a literary reading of the universe through physics. There's a way you can read The Edge of Space-Time as me doing close-reading for a few 100 pages. I'm close-reading equations. I'm close-reading Dirac. I'm close-reading Hawking and Ellis, but it's all different versions of a literary practice," says Chanda Prescod-Weinstein, author of The Edge of Space-Time: Particles, Poetry, and the Cosmic Dream Boogie (Pantheon Books).Coming at you at the speed of sound, CNFers, with Chanda Prescod-Weinstein, who is the author of The Disordered Cosmos: A Journey into Dark Matter, Spacetime, and Dreams Deferred and her latest book The Edge of Space-Time: Particles, Poetry, and the Cosmic Dream Boogie. It's published by Pantheon Books.She is an associate professor of physics and core faculty member in women's and gender studies at the University of New Hampshire. Her work lives at the intersection of particle physics, cosmology, and astrophysics and she's also a theorist of Black feminist science studies.Her book is accessible, for sure, but it's mind-bendy and it strikes me as the kind of book you want to read twice. One, it's good company, and two, the material she translates is really difficult to get your head around, but that's the nature of the quantum mechanics, and general relativity, and particle physics, and how the hell did we get here in the first place? Gah!So Chanda talks about: The publishing business in conversations she had with CNF Pod alum Keith O'Brien Writing for Black and queer audiences The different selves who approach the page Paying attention to acknowledgements Epigraph rights and how they set the vibe The fork in the road researchers face when they write a pop science book Physicist brain A literary reading of the universe The world keeps happening while you're writing Understanding metaphors And what Newton and Einstein might talk about if they sat down at a bar togetherBe sure you visit Chanda's website chanda.science and follow her on Instagram at chanda.prescod.weinstein.This episode will pair well with: Episode 103: Persistent, Constant, Careful Work with Dennis Overbye Episode 111: The Empowering and Exciting Nature of Film with Emer Reynolds Episode 307: Greg Brennecka Episode 334: Katrina Miller Episode 395: “The Six,” Mini-Deadlines and the Twang with Loren Grush
In which there's Elastic Twang & Pluck, we price cutlery, consider a crooner's clobber, and get the blues. Full show notes are at https://offgrid.tlmb.net/Some General Knowledge, a mini-quiz, and some fun trivia we didn't necessarily know until just now.Before each recording, the hosts & their guest solve a cryptic crossword. In the podcast, we riff on words in the grid or clues (spoilers!), telling each other things we find funny or interesting about them. We'll also pick a favourite clue each, and explain how it works to the listener, and have a mini-quiz, also inspired by the puzzle. You don't have to solve or understand cryptic crosswords yourself to enjoy this podcast, but hopefully we might intrigue and tempt you to dip your toes in the water. Hosted on Acast.

Zwei Stunden Country aus einem Jahrzehnt, in dem das Genre erwachsen wurde – zwischen großen Gefühlen, neuen Sounds und festem Western‑Boden unter den Boots. In dieser Sendung legen wir den Fokus auf die CountryMusik der 1980erJahre: auf die Zeit, als Country salonfähig wurde, den Sprung in die Breite schaffte – und gleichzeitig Künstlerinnen und Künstler als NeoTraditionalisten bewusst gegen den Mainstream hielten. Zwischen glatten Hits, ehrlichen Balladen und klassischem Twang schlagen wir den Bogen bis ins Heute – mit spannenden Gegensätzen aus den aktuellen Billboard Hot Country Songs Charts. Vergangenheit trifft Gegenwart, Tradition trifft Beat. Zwei Stunden Country-Sound mit Haltung und Herz.

Interview with Jerid O'Connell of The Rousers. The Rousers were formed in 1977 in New York CIty by Jeff Buckland (vocals), Bill Dickson (rhythm guitar), John Hannah (bass), Tom Milmore (lead guitar) and Jerid O'Connell (drums). They auditioned at CBGB, where they were noticed by famed Max's Kansas City booker Peter Crowley. The Rousers genial "Rhythm and Twang" sound soon earned them a following, and the band performed all around the New York area, Washington D.C., Philadelphia and Boston. The Rousers released a single in 1981 on Jimboco Records of "Party Boy" and "Don't Let the Band Stop Playing" produced by MC5 legend Wayne Kramer. (An early limited edition included a red FlexiDisc of "Christmas Party".) In 1982 Sal Capozucca and Brett Wilder respectively took over on drums and bass. This lineup continued until 1984. Jeff Buckland left music and went on to a successful career in animation. The other members went on to various other bands (Bill and Brett joined The Backbones, Tom and Sal to Syntax Error, Treasure Head, etc.) and continued to play and record in the New York area. Around 1986, the Praise Jockeys were formed with Bill, Brett, Tom and Sal. The band featured a heavier, riff happy sound. Their "Look at My Face" CD was released in 2021. Bill, Tom and Sal next formed The Mockingbirds with keyboard player Chris Pondish. The Mockingbirds released the CD "Broken Times" in 2021. That band transformed into The Shambles (Bill, Tom, Sal and Rob Noname). Brett continued to play in several bands, including The Vacant Lot. Around 1995 The Rousers began playing as a quartet with Bill on vocals and guitar, Brett on bass, Tom on guitar and Sal on drums. This lineup recorded several songs at Purple Light Studio in Brooklyn which was released as "All the King's Men" in 2021. Brett left to pursue his musical muse, sometimes rejoining The Rousers, but mainly going his own way. The Rousers continued with Bill now on bass and vocals. Henry Kandel was added on saxophone from about 2000-2002. After that, the Rousers recorded and performed as a trio. The band released a CD ("Playing the Rock and Roll For You") in 2012, and an EP in 2018 ("Kickin'"). Drummer Sal Capozucca died of Covid May 13,2020.

The Duo de Twang album is a fun listen, but the shows were where the guys really let loose and silliness reigned. Soya and frequent Twang contributor Wylie Woods drop by to talk about their experience on the road with DDT, including a show that Josh attended which they described as one of the worst of the tour, lousy conditions at Jam Cuirse, and an unexpected success in Europe.

We turn our attention to Duo de Twang, the "vacation fuck-off band" that Les Claypool started after a couple special California gigs gave away to a full-blown vision for a sit-down campfire acoustic project. We chart the project's logisitical and inspirational origins, and discuss the album track-by-track.

Primed By 29 has a fetching title for a Primus fan exploring the solo works of Les Claypool. Although the lyrics don't necessarily refer to anything Primus-related, they're certainly in the wheelhouse of Claypool, who pens another cautionary tale about going too far with recreational drugs in an attempt to create excitement from the mundane. It also happens to be Frankie's favorite track on the album, and we wonder why it didn't make the cut for Duo de Twang a few years later. Get involvedInstagramFacebookEmailBurn your money
I'm pulling back the curtain on my actual low-ticket funnel — what I launched, what I tested, what worked (barely), what flopped hard, and why I'm not giving up on it. If you've been thinking about launching a digital product, testing ads, or growing your list with something people actually buy — this episode lays it all out. Including real numbers, offers I'm experimenting with (like the After Us Guide), and my honest take on what's worth fixing vs. scrapping.
