Rock 'n' roll appeared in the 1950s as the high-energy, electrically amplified music of young dancers and listeners, first in the United States and then around the globe, and from the beginning it symbolized more than music. First popularized as a marketing rubric to sell African-American rhythm and blues to white teenagers, it stood for racial integration, sexual freedom, youthful rebellion, and for change and modernity. It was never a single kind of music, and historians disagree about when it began and which artists or records should be included in its canon--but it was always a flashpoint, whether condemned as an assault on cultural standards or hailed as the most exciting movement of the twentieth century.

How is artificial intelligence shifting from simple data storage into a search and synthesis engine for human consciousness? In this throwback episode of the previous Edge of AI Podcast, Ron Levy sits down with Memo Akten, a multidisciplinary artist, musician, researcher, and computer scientist whose collaborators include U2, Lenny Kravitz, Depeche Mode, Richard Dawkins, Google, and Apple.Memo breaks down his journey from writing software instruments in the early 2000s to pursuing a PhD in machine learning. He shares live demonstrations of his groundbreaking interactive installations, including Learning to See and Distributed Consciousness.Discover why Memo views current AI advancements as the "final decentering of human exceptionalism," drawing parallels to the Copernican trauma and Darwinian evolution. He also tackles the future of creative labor, the historical lessons of the Luddite movement, and how decentralized blockchain technology could redefine digital authorship and IPSupport us through our Sponsors! ☕ Want to make content like ours?

In this episode of Kissing Lips and Breaking Hearts with the Garden Tarts, Jenny and Hillary start with Bono's back surgery in 2010 and the 360 Tour cancellations and reschedules that followed. From there, the episode shifts into a freestyle conversation about music, memory, and life, including a big CD purge, rediscovering favorite bands like R.E.M., Keane, and Travis, and rethinking what still deserves a place in the collection.They also talk about a Netflix true-crime-style documentary binge, the reality of summer heat and storms, climate change, family milestones, and the challenges of planning for the future. It's a conversational episode with plenty of personality, a little nostalgia, and a lot of U2-adjacent charm.

Die "Rockpalast"-Nächte auf der Loreley gehörten zu den legendärsten Musikübertragungen Europas. Millionen Zuschauer verfolgten die Live-Konzerte vor den Fernsehbildschirmen, während auf der Bühne internationale Stars auftreten und Musikgeschichte schreiben. Diese Folge blickt zurück auf die großen "Rockpalast"-Jahre: auf frühe Auftritte von U2, auf die Steve Miller Band, auf George Clintons Funkadelic und viele weitere Künstler, die die Loreley zu einer internationalen Bühne machten. Besonders in Erinnerung geblieben ist jedoch ein Auftritt der damals noch weitgehend unbekannten Red Hot Chili Peppers. Nur mit einer Socke bekleidet sorgen sie live im Fernsehen für einen der größten Skandale der Geschichte des "Rockpalast". Außerdem erinnern sich Beteiligte an die Begegnung zwischen Sänger Anthony Kiedis und Moderatorin Evi Seibert, die hinter den Kulissen für Gesprächsstoff sorgte. Eine Folge über Live-Fernsehen, Rockgeschichte und Momente, die bis heute Kultstatus genießen. __________ Kapitel: (02:18) – Ein kleines Zwischenresümee(05:25) – Das erste Rockpalast-Open-Air(14:10) – Steve Miller und der Löwenkäfig(19:14) – Die Architektur der Loreley(21:19) – Der Blick hinter die Kulissen mit Evi Seibert(31:52) – Loreley-Proteste 1978(37:30) – Thomas D erinnert sich an die Loreley __________ ARD Podcast-Tipp: Too Many Tabs: https://1.ard.de/tmt?cp

For July's episode we discuss our favourite songs of 1983, so we've got lots of goth, synthpop, metal titans, electro, industrial, and beautiful ambient soundscapes. We've each chosen our 10 favourite songs of the year and sent them over to Colin's wife Helen, who put the playlists together and distributed them so we were each given a playlist of the 20 songs from the other two hosts, along with our own 10. We then ranked the playlists in order of preference and sent them back to Helen, who totalled up the points and worked out the order. She also joined us on the episode to read out the countdown, which we found out as we recorded so all reactions are genuine.Now, admittedly, in parts we're a little bit brutal to some of the songs in the list as we're three separate people with differing music tastes, but please remember that to be in this episode at all the songs have to have been in one of our top 10's of that year.Bands featured in this episode include (In alphabetical order, no spoilers here!) - Accept, Aztec Camera, Bananarama, Bauhaus, The Birthday Party, David Bowie, Dio, Brian Eno, The Fall, Freur, Gene Loves Jezebel, Grandmaster Melle Mel, Corey Hart, Heaven 17, Billy Idol, Iron Maiden, Cyndi Lauper, Metallica, Merzbow, Ministry, The Pointer Sisters, R.E.M., Specimen, Suicidal Tendencies, Swans, Talking Heads, Tears For Fears, The The, U2, and Tom WaitsFind all songs in alphabetical order here - https://open.spotify.com/playlist/534g5ENDcVYaw5oSgT7dvu?si=f7eae0414cdc47e5Find our We Dig Music Pollwinners Party playlist (featuring all of the winning songs up until now) here - https://open.spotify.com/playlist/45zfDHo8zm6VqrvoEQSt3z?si=Ivt0oMj6SmitimvumYfFrQIf you want to listen to megalength playlists of all the songs we've individually picked since we started doing best of the year episodes (which need updating but I plan on doing them over the next few months or so), you can listen to Colin's here – https://open.spotify.com/playlist/5x3Vy5Jry2IxG9JNOtabRT?si=HhcVKRCtRhWCK1KucyrDdgIan's here - https://open.spotify.com/playlist/2H0hnxe6WX50QNQdlfRH5T?si=XmEjnRqISNqDwi30p1uLqAand Tracey's here - https://open.spotify.com/playlist/2p3K0n8dKhjHb2nKBSYnKi?si=7a-cyDvSSuugdV1m5md9NwThe playlist of 20 songs from the other two hosts was scored as usual, our favourite song got 20 points, counting down incrementally to our least favourite which got 1 point. The scoring of our own list of 10 is now slightly more complicated in order to give a truer level of points to our own favourites. So rather than them only being able to score as many points as our 10th favourite in the other list, the points in our own list were distributed as follows -1st place - 20 points2nd place - 18 points3rd place – 16 points4th place – 14 points5th place – 12 points6th place – 9 points7th place – 7 points8th place – 5 points9th place – 3 points10th place -1 pointHosts - Ian Clarke, Colin Jackson-Brown & Tracey BGuest starring Helen Jackson-Brown.Playlist compiling/distributing – Helen Jackson-BrownRecorded/Edited/Mixed/Original Music by Colin Jackson-Brown for We Dig PodcastsThanks to Peter Latimer for help with the scoring system.Part of the We Dig Podcasts network along with Free With This Months Issue & Pick A Disc.Bluesky - https://bsky.app/profile/wedigmusic.bsky.socialInstagram - https://www.instagram.com/wedigmusicpcast/Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/wedigpusicpcast/Find our other episodes & podcasts at www.wedigpodcasts.com

How Brian Eno expanded the possibilities of what music and sound can be. Eno is a trailblazing musician and producer who's worked on seminal records by U2, David Bowie, the Talking Heads and Coldplay, among others. But Eno isn't just a great collaborator with other artists; he's also a great collaborator with machines. Long before we started worrying about A.I. replacing human creativity, Eno was tinkering with generative systems to pioneer ambient music – a genre that has deeply influenced how we listen to music today. We recorded this conversation in 2025, and it's one of my favorite recent episodes of the show. So I wanted to resurface it this summer for anyone who may have missed it the first time.

271 - Paul Leary (Butthole Surfers, Producer) In episode 271 of “Have Guitar Will Travel”, presented by Vintage Guitar Magazine, host James Patrick Regan speaks with Paul Leary guitarist and producer from the Butthole Surfers. In their conversation Paul talks about the documentary on the band and a recent show they did at the screening… and the demise of the Butthole Surfers and his retirement. Paul describes his gear currently and throughout the run of the Butthole Surfers including a Fender Custom Shop Strat made by John Cruz and he takes us through guitars that got away. Paul takes us through growing up in San Antonio and how seeing the Beatles on tv gave him the guitar bug and his guitar education playing in jazz bands. Paul discusses how he and Gibby met in college and how they started the band that eventually became the Butthole Surfers and how the name came about. Paul tells us about being produced by John Paul Jones and himself being the producer for U2, Sublime the Meat Puppets and the Reverend Horton Heat. Paul then discusses the rigors of touring and traveling as the Butthole Surfers and he describes how the documentary came about. To find out more about you Paul can go to his website: buttholesurfers.com and the trailer to the documentary on the band is here: https://youtu.be/UFtkc11i3uE?is=eVs2-vOdh8cTr1Q- Please subscribe, like, comment, share and review this podcast! #VintageGuitarMagazine #PaulLeary #ButtholeSurfers #JohnPaulJones #FenderCustomShop #JohnCruz #Sublime #GibsonGuitar #JamesPatrickRegan #theDeadlies #haveguitarwilltravelpodcast #HGWT #tourlife https://www.patreon.com/cw/HaveGuitarWillTravelPodcast Please like, comment, and share this podcast!

By 1986, REM were veterans of the college rock scene, had recorded in London and gotten songs into the charts. For their 4th album, Life's Rich Pageant, they took a step forward in stretching not only what they could do musically but voicing social, political and environmental concerns through their lyrics. We don't find it to be totally in your face (as opposed to say, U2) but more subliminal as their lyrics can sometimes be nebulous or at least not straight forward and not about rock cliches like hot rods and chicks (not that there's anything wrong with hot rods and chicks if you know what I'm saying out there boys - Ian Astbury, The Cult). They may sneak in stories about a polluted river in Cuyahoga or regret the rise and fall of a revolutionary in Central America (The Flowers of Guatemala) or even the effects of acid rain damaging our environment (Fall On Me). But they do it with upbeat riffs and guitar runs from Peter Buck with lead singer Michael Stipe delivering the message while bassist Mike Mills provides the counterpoint lyrics to not only tell the story but give REM their signature sound. The driving beat provided by Bill Berry make songs like I Believe an all out rocker you can jump around and shout along to. And they experiment with things like banjos on Swan Swan H and middle eastern sounds on Underneath The Bunker (not quite an instrumental). This album went gold and is the predecessor to Document which would be their first platinum record thanks to The One I Love & It's The End Of The World As We Know It (And I Feel Fine). Superman, a cover by the 60's psychedelic band Clique, helped them get in the charts and draw some interest beyond college campuses and college radio. That interest would build to Document which would lead to a $40 million record contract from Warner Brothers and put them on a steeper trajectory to pop superstardom. REM fans are often divided between those who knew and loved them in 80s before they hit it big and those who came to know them thanks to the big record company, expensive videos and pop stylings. For me, the IRS records of the 80s will always be the real REM and Life's Rich Pageant is a great moment in time for them. They've learned the ropes, made some good records and are not complacent - they moved forward believing in themselves, each other and their convictions which would eventually bring them all the success in the world.

THIS BOOK IS A COLLECTION OF INTERVIEWS with people who have made records with some of the biggest names in music. Along the way, they might be engineering the recordings, picking the songs, guiding the singers, picking the best takes of songs, balancing egos, fixing the lyrics, booking the studio time, buying lunch, playing instruments, pushing artists further, writing or cowriting the songs, selecting the musicians to use, overseeing the mixes, and many other tasks. Making records is always a combination of many skills and goals, and the producer needs to have what it takes to make the session productive and the music compelling.In this book, interviewees include people who have worked with the Beatles, the Rolling Stones, Public Enemy, Taylor Swift, Bob Dylan, P!nk, U2, Emmylou Harris, Willie Nelson, Wu-Tang Clan, David Bowie, T.Rex, Johnny Cash, Aretha Franklin, Amy Winehouse, Paul McCartney, Dolly Parton, Duran Duran, the Replacements, Christina Aguilera, Alicia Keys, Kendrick Lamar, Tom Petty, and Sabrina Carpenter, plus more. And that's just the beginning of the credits these producers―Brian Eno, Finneas, Glyn Johns, Hank Shocklee, Jack Antonoff, Joe Boyd, Jon Brion, Lee "Scratch" Perry, Linda Perry, Mark Ronson, RZA, Sasami, Steve Lillywhite, Susan Rogers, T Bone Burnett, and many others―collectively hold.All of these interviews come from the pages of Tape Op magazine, founded in 1996 by editor Larry Crane. Over the last thirty years, along with publisher John Baccigaluppi, Tape Op has become the world's deepest archive of conversations about the art and science of recording music, and is still an active, print-based magazine with the highest circulation of any recording magazine in the world.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/arroe-collins-like-it-s-live--4113802/support.

By 1986, REM were veterans of the college rock scene, had recorded in London and gotten songs into the charts. For their 4th album, Life's Rich Pageant, they took a step forward in stretching not only what they could do musically but voicing social, political and environmental concerns through their lyrics. We don't find it to be totally in your face (as opposed to say, U2) but more subliminal as their lyrics can sometimes be nebulous or at least not straight forward and not about rock cliches like hot rods and chicks (not that there's anything wrong with hot rods and chicks if you know what I'm saying out there boys - Ian Astbury, The Cult). They may sneak in stories about a polluted river in Cuyahoga or regret the rise and fall of a revolutionary in Central America (The Flowers of Guatemala) or even the effects of acid rain damaging our environment (Fall On Me). But they do it with upbeat riffs and guitar runs from Peter Buck with lead singer Michael Stipe delivering the message while bassist Mike Mills provides the counterpoint lyrics to not only tell the story but give REM their signature sound. The driving beat provided by Bill Berry make songs like I Believe an all out rocker you can jump around and shout along to. And they experiment with things like banjos on Swan Swan H and middle eastern sounds on Underneath The Bunker (not quite an instrumental). This album went gold and is the predecessor to Document which would be their first platinum record thanks to The One I Love & It's The End Of The World As We Know It (And I Feel Fine). Superman, a cover by the 60's psychedelic band Clique, helped them get in the charts and draw some interest beyond college campuses and college radio. That interest would build to Document which would lead to a $40 million record contract from Warner Brothers and put them on a steeper trajectory to pop superstardom. REM fans are often divided between those who knew and loved them in 80s before they hit it big and those who came to know them thanks to the big record company, expensive videos and pop stylings. For me, the IRS records of the 80s will always be the real REM and Life's Rich Pageant is a great moment in time for them.

Producer Marc Urselli is the chief engineer at New York City's EastSide Sound, as well as the owner of his own studio, Audio Confidential. He has worked with pop, rock, and jazz artists ranging from U2, Foo Fighters, Nick Cave, Lou Reed, Sting, Keith Richards, Kesha, Jeff Beck, Les Paul, Buddy Guy, Luther Vandross, Børns, The Black Crowes, Frank Sinatra, Joss Stone, Mike Patton, and of course, John Zorn, with whom he has made over 120 albums! Geoff Stanfield chatted with Marc from Audio Confidential about his early days recording in Italy, his move to New York, an internship at EastSide Sound, his approach to sessions, working with U2, and his recent collaboration with JZ Mics on their new MU-1 large diaphragm condenser/ribbon hybrid microphone. Enjoy!

In this episode of Kissing Lips and Breaking Hearts with the Garden Tarts, we kick off with a celebration of Live Aid and the unforgettable U2 performance that changed everything, from “Sunday Bloody Sunday” and “Bad” to the moment Bono became, well, Bono. Then we turn to “Street of Dreams,” the new U2 single that's sparked a full-on fandom debate online.We talk about why the song is hitting some listeners as a joyful, radio-ready earworm while leaving others cold, and why that reaction says as much about fandom as it does about the track itself. We also get into the bigger question behind the release: who is U2 making music for now, and does every album need to aim for the next generation when the current fanbase is already all in?Along the way, we discuss:Why U2's Live Aid set still looms so large in rock history.How Bono turned “Bad” into a once-in-a-lifetime moment.Why “Street of Dreams” feels built for big rooms, big singalongs, and big opinions.How the U2 fanbase reacts when the band changes direction.Why music can be divisive without needing to become personal.FIND MORE AT www.thegardentarts.com

On this week's show, we spend quality time with new records by Low Cut Connie & River Shook, spin fresh tracks from Billy Strings, U2 & Phoebe Bridgers, and celebrate 25 years of The White Stripes' White Blood Cells. All this & much, much less!Debts No Honest Man Can Pay is a curated collection of musical eclectica & other noodle stories. The show started in 2003 at WHFR-FM (Dearborn, MI), moved to WGWG-FM (Boiling Springs, NC) in 2006 & Plaza Midwood Community Radio (Charlotte, NC) in 2012, with a brief pit-stop at WLFM-FM (Appleton, WI) in 2004.

Easter Lily marks U2's second surprise EP in the first few months of 2026 after almost 9 years without an album of original material. Where its predecessor, Days of Ash, looked outward commenting on the chaotic times of the present day, Easter Lily turns inward with more thoughtful songs emerging from a more personal and private place exploring the themes of friendship, loss, hope, and ultimately renewal. What does it all add up to? Their most unapologetic collection of songs of devotion since October and guess what? U2's best work in over 20 years. We'll also touch on the just released new single "Street of Dreams" from the still untitled new album due later this year.

The Garden Tarts react to U2's new single “Street of Dreams” in this special mini-episode of Kissing Lips and Breaking Hearts. They break down the song's upbeat sound, talk through the video's playful details, and share their first impressions of what feels like a joyful new chapter for U2. If you want a fun, lively first listen with plenty of fan commentary, this episode is for you.

THE FARR SIDE. Andy Kamenetzky edition. AK is a huge fan of the band U2! They just released a song and AK is not a fan of it. There could be a new destination for LeBron James and we are all speculating where it could be. Could this be a Last Dance situation for LeBron James?

Guy Oseary (@guyoseary) has been spotting talent before anyone else could see it for nearly four decades. Under his leadership at Maverick Records, Maverick sold more than 100 million albums. Guy has managed some of the biggest names in music, including Madonna, the Red Hot Chili Peppers, and U2, and was named Variety's Music Mogul of the Year in 2022. He executive produced Twilight, which became one of the most successful franchises in movie history, generating more than $3.5B. Guy was also an early investor in Vita Coco and co-founded A-Grade Investments and then Sound Ventures, now with nearly $2 billion under management. At A-Grade, his hits included Airbnb, Uber, and Spotify. Sound Ventures launched with less than $100M and has since had 86 exits and 26 IPOs.This episode is brought to you by:Momentous high-quality creatine for cognitive and muscular support: https://livemomentous.com/TimAG1 all-in-one nutritional supplement: DrinkAG1.com/TimTimestamps[00:00:00] Start.[00:02:01] How a West Hollywood balcony became a backstage pass.[00:03:51] A knife on Pico Boulevard and the snap decision to switch schools.[00:05:54] Faking a Beverly Hills address to get inside another world.[00:08:10] Wise Guy Records: a 15-year-old builds a portfolio out of nothing.[00:10:09] Guy's alternative terms when Bernie Brillstein offered $25,000.[00:11:34] The one moment that confirmed Guy was on the right path.[00:12:29] Freddy DeMann enters the picture and Guy proves himself with Ice-T's crew.[00:15:07] A desk at Maverick Records in exchange for no salary.[00:17:08] Chasing Hole and Rage Against the Machine — and losing both.[00:23:34] Candlebox in five minutes: seeing thousands in a room of 30.[00:24:11] Why "magic" beats everything else.[00:26:37] Signing Alanis off a single song, and stopping Muse mid-audition.[00:31:59] The real Alanis story: "Perfect," Joni Mitchell, and a 30-million-selling debut.[00:35:24] What Madonna taught Guy about thinking without walls.[00:38:50] From bands to Twilight: the power of a blank canvas.[00:45:30] How Guy got into investing, and the IdeaLab bet that wiped him out before the crash.[00:54:31] Why Guy is known as a great curator of people.[00:58:32] The three-month window that caught OpenAI and Anthropic.[01:06:07] AI music and the battle to ensure human musicians get paid.[01:09:30] How Spotify solved the problems Napster couldn't overcome.[01:14:50] SpaceX and Bitcoin: the ones that got away.[01:17:32] The rewards, rigors, and responsibilities of back-to-back touring.[01:21:44] Why Guy never stops to celebrate.[01:24:45] Splitting with Ashton Kutcher after 20 years.[01:27:30] Final thoughts on Guy's first podcast.*For show notes and past guests on The Tim Ferriss Show, please visit tim.blog/podcast.For deals from sponsors of The Tim Ferriss Show, please visit tim.blog/podcast-sponsorsSign up for Tim's email newsletter (5-Bullet Friday) at tim.blog/friday.For transcripts of episodes, go to tim.blog/transcripts.Discover Tim's books: tim.blog/books.Follow Tim:Twitter: twitter.com/tferriss Instagram: instagram.com/timferrissYouTube: youtube.com/timferrissFacebook: facebook.com/timferriss LinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/timferrissSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Minimalist Music (Bloomsbury, 2026) looks critically into the music's past, shows how the genre thrives across styles, and points the way toward minimalism's ongoing future. Minimalism as a genre is best defined not by any style or flavor but by its means. Certain rhythms and chords in other music may identify things like jazz or bossa nova or reggae; take those same elements and put them through the processes of minimalism and you have minimalism with the hues of other musics. A still young genre with ancient roots, minimalism is much less any kind of style than a practice, a manner of making music. Reviving those means and applying them to contemporary sounds and experiences, the pioneers of minimalism created a new and avant-garde music that immediately communicated its power to listeners of all kinds.

Alan Corr discusses U2's new single, Street of Dreams.

Minimalist Music (Bloomsbury, 2026) looks critically into the music's past, shows how the genre thrives across styles, and points the way toward minimalism's ongoing future. Minimalism as a genre is best defined not by any style or flavor but by its means. Certain rhythms and chords in other music may identify things like jazz or bossa nova or reggae; take those same elements and put them through the processes of minimalism and you have minimalism with the hues of other musics. A still young genre with ancient roots, minimalism is much less any kind of style than a practice, a manner of making music. Reviving those means and applying them to contemporary sounds and experiences, the pioneers of minimalism created a new and avant-garde music that immediately communicated its power to listeners of all kinds. The global appeal of minimalism and the way the methods adapt to myriad styles open up a view into how music actually works as an art and an experience, how through time it connects in a fundamental way to how we as humans listen.

O Brother, Where Art Thou? opened in five theaters on December 22, 2000, went on to make $71.9 million worldwide on a $26 million budget, and somehow got outdone by its own soundtrack — which sold over 8 million copies and beat out Bob Dylan and U2 for the Grammy for Album of the Year, only the third movie soundtrack ever to do it.Josh, Garrett, and David kick off Mythology Month with the Coens' loose, sun-bleached riff on the Odyssey. David's watched it since he was eleven and it's in his Letterboxd top four. Josh has loved it since childhood cassette-recording "Man of Constant Sorrow" off the radio. Garrett watched it for the first time this week — and tried to track the Homer parallels in real time, which he'll tell you was a mistake. They get into the Cyclops-with-an-eye-patch stuff, the Homer Stokes subplot and what it says about 1930s (and 2026) politics, and why George Clooney's pomade matters more than you'd think.Let us know what you think.

Welcome to Episode 137 of The Journey Is The Reward!On this episode, Brian and Micah are back in the studio and catching up with everyone's favorite culinary traveler, Chef Kathy.Before bringing the Chef into the cabin, Micah gives us an honest status update on his Chase Sapphire Reserve card now that he's hit the six-month mark. With the premium card market getting more expensive by the day, Micah breaks down exactly which features, lounge perks, and travel credits he's used to justify that hefty annual fee.With zero ground delays on the schedule, no listener mail, and a rare night off from Listener Lu, the guys take advantage of the completely clear skies and head straight into the main itinerary.Chef Kathy recently joined Momma Coleman and Brian's brother Shawn on the adventure of a lifetime to Ireland. Because you absolutely cannot have Momma Coleman flying in the back of the bus, Brian worked his frequent flyer magic to upgrade the family into United Polaris business class.While exploring the spectacular Irish countryside, Chef Kathy didn't just sightsee—she also embedded herself in a local culinary school to sharpen her professional skills. And despite some chaotic driving logistics on the local roads, the crew made it back to Dublin in time to clear US Preclearance and immigration without a hitch.The adventure didn't stop across the pond. Upon returning to the US, the Chef met right back up with the family to celebrate Momma Coleman's legendary 91st birthday bash in Toms River, New Jersey. From there, she jetted out to Los Angeles to link up with Brian for an immediate road trip out to Las Vegas.In the City of Blinding Lights, Brian and Chef Kathy took over The Sphere, catching the mind-bending production of The Wizard of Oz before returning to the venue for a high-energy No Doubt concert. Kathy breaks down the incredible visuals of the venue and contrasts the show with the venue's original residents, U2, for two completely different premium entertainment experiences.Up next for the Chef? A solo expedition to Iceland—this time, safely out of range of the Coleman clan!So sit back, relax, and enjoy the stories. Because around here, the journey is the reward.As always, our ears are blessed by the utterly soul-stirring, goosebump-inducing sounds of the Madalitso Youth Choir! Their Welcome and Goodbye songs, recorded straight from the Royal Livingstone Hotel in Zambia, are pure magic.You can always find the audio recording at www.thejourneyisthereward.org.

It took 65 years for that message to completely reverse itself in the Democratic Party and on the Left. Out is personal achievement. In is victimhood. Out is reaching for the stars. In is ushering in oppressed people from all over the world to ensure a steady supply. Out is the right of American citizens with their vote. In are people who don't respect that vote.As Trump gives his speech at Mount Rushmore later this evening, Zohran Mamdani, who is supposedly just the Mayor of New York City, has positioned himself as Trump's equal, the Mirror President for the other America. Thirsty as ever, in love with his own image, thinking who the hell he is, he has the audacity to sit in George Washington's chair to make a speech about a new America he hopes to invent, one without borders, without Capitalism, without billionaires.His speech paints the American government as oppressive, while demonizing them for policing immigration:"We see it just as clearly in every American who still believes this country belongs to we, the people. We see America each time neighbors link arms with neighbors without asking how long they've lived here or what papers they have as ICE invades our neighborhoods. We see America each time working people demand more, not just for themselves, but for their fellow Americans."The irony is that he demonizes the rich, the very people who pad his risks in New York City and help him present a fake-pretend utopian fantasy that only works because of the rich people in the city, because they won't let it fail. It's absolution, after all, and there is no price high enough for that. It took America 250 years to arrive at a place where the country might finally, at long last, “be like Europe.” How many times did I hear that throughout my life? Why can't we be like Europe? We were raised to hate our country, to see it as a Capitalist hellhole of the haves and the have-nots, a lesser nation than France or the UK or Italy. No wonder Mamdani thinks he speaks for everyone. But we didn't have a bloody revolution just to copy England.Mamdani is like a cult leader who can now exploit whole generations who have been indoctrinated to believe that there is something rotting at the core of America's heart, a disease of “white supremacy” and a history of exploitation, colonization, slavery, trauma, abuse, and poverty. Their only answer for this is to “be more like Europe.” At best, that is where they land. Really, it's probably closer to “be more like China.”They're already halfway there. Cancel culture has silenced all dissent. The DSA is rising, and the Democrats have kissed Mamdani's ring.Not because it is easy…It's not easy making it in America. It's not easy making enough money for a decent home, to raise a family, and to take a vacation once in a while. No one ever said it would be easy, least of all, JFK:We choose to go to the moon in this decade and do the other things not because they are easy, but because they are hard. Because that goal will serve to organize and measure the best of our energies and skills, because that challenge is one that we're willing to accept.”JFK was assassinated before I was born. The Democrats were haunted by him for my entire life, until Barack Obama came along and was the first to erase the ghosts of the past and redefine what it meant to be both a Democrat and a person of the Left. That meant fundamental things would change. One of the biggest changes was going from believing in personal achievement to believing in victimhood. Obama took the obstruction of his policies personally. It was those racist Republicans. So they set about changing the hearts and minds of the young and teaching them that the only reason they couldn't succeed was their victim status, and before long, that became the only thing that mattered about them. But for that movement to succeed, it required a sick country, not a healthy one. The Democrats were split in 2016 between the “white working class” in Bernie's Democratic Socialism and the identity politics of Hillary Clinton or Barack Obama. Now, what we're seeing is a marriage between the two. Now, it's not what Vivek Ramaswamy called Woke Capitalism, but rather, Woke Socialism. Isn't it just another way to sell to Gen-Z?They are the most privileged generation ever to walk the face of the earth. Capitalism gave them social media, email, a computer in the palm of their hand, DoorDash, Google, Uber, TikTok, YouTube, streaming music, television shows, fast food, fast fashion, Instacart, Airbnb, influencer culture, and movies. And it's not enough. Why can't they be a Kardashian and have birthday parties with ten thousand balloons? Why can't they travel to Europe? Why can't they own a house? Why can't they live on Manhattan's Upper West Side? Why is Elon Musk a trillionaire with so many homeless people on the streets? Why are they so miserable, so full of anxiety, so full of hate? How can a life of convenience be so hard?They want an easy life as they have in Sweden, Italy, or France. They want to Free Palestine. They want their happy ending for all oppressed people all over the world, especially those crossing the border. They were told this was America's problem, so why can't they change America to fix it?And if they can't have it, well…They were raised to believe it should all be easy. If you have anxiety, take a pill. If movies and books trigger you, they'll have trigger warnings. Bullies at school will be eradicated. Self-esteem is what matters most. Words are violence. If masculinity is too toxic, we'll feminize society to make it easier.Mothers of my generation coddled the American mind. We helicoptered our children. We kept them from every imaginable harm, and we tried to clear a path to success. We taught them that you should only do things if they're easy, not if they are hard. Because if they are too hard, that might lead to failure, and our kids could never fail.But we forgot to teach them the value of hard work and failure because we never wanted them to feel any discomfort. If their lives were easy, we felt like we'd accomplished something because they'd be happy. But happiness comes from service, from building something, achieving something, doing something hard. This country has always been “move fast and break things” but also “move fast and build things.” Invent things, envision things, start a business. I could never have started a business as a single mother in Italy as I did in America in 1999. America is the only country where anyone can build anything. The downside of that is that it's hard. There is a price to pay for freedom. Unless you've felt freedom, real freedom, in your mind and heart, you'll never love this country the way I do. I love feeling free and always have. I had to escape the Left and the Democratic Party because I no longer felt free, as they no longer believe in freedom. They believe in forced compliance and conformity.But freedom also means this:And this:They're just too dumb by now to realize that they live in a free country where they can say and do anything they please without being shot on the spot or thrown in jail. They're free to call Trump a fascist dictator because he isn't one. They're free to protest “No Kings” because Trump isn't one. Mamdani wants to fundamentally transform America and turn it into a Communist utopia, and the Democrats are letting him. That is not the way to lead America 250 years in. No, we have to fight for what America is. It is not a failure, not yet. It is worth fighting for. Younger generations should be taught that they can do anything with their lives, no matter their skin color, and that they can make money right now on YouTube, Substack, and TikTok. They can start a business. They can go to trade school. They can use AI to get them where they need to go because it can make any ordinary person well-skilled and productive. And it's free. It's all there for the taking, but it will never be enough for a movement fueled by victimhood.A Nation built on strengthObviously, Donald Trump is not perfect. Every day, someone throws out another immoral or unethical thing they believe disqualifies him from leading. Ya, we got that. Your job was to beat him by making a better case to the American people, and you never did.Trump was called to this moment in history to hold fast and true to America's founding principles. I've never seen a more patriotic American, let alone a president, in my entire life. He's celebrating every part of it. He's reviving our history. He's making us proud of our country. Trump's White House YouTube channel has videos like this:Endless amounts of them, trying to fill the cup back up to halfway full for future generations. Later tonight, Trump will once again be at Mount Rushmore to give a speech for America at 250. I already know what he will say because I know him, and I know no president in my lifetime has loved this country more. He'll remind us what America is and what threatens us now. And seething in the background will be bitter, angry, jealous people who have to root for America's failure, not because they hate him that much, but because they refuse to relinquish their power back to the people. They could have won the election, but instead, they went to war.They will have to hold on to that hate for years to come so they can pass it on to their children and make them understand why they could not celebrate a country that, to paraphrase U2, gave them everything they ever wanted … it wasn't what they wanted. I live in a town that is full of wealthy white liberals, and almost no one has a flag out front. I put two up by my fence to show my gratitude and my love for this glorious, young, imperfect, beautiful country. I can only hope no one steals it in a rage. On the other hand, people in my town have a long tradition of putting out chairs for the 4th of July parade a month in advance. The chairs stretch out for miles, and no one ever takes them. To be an American means self-governance, but it also means being part of that fragile, invisible thread that ties us together, like chairs that line the main highway, all different but somehow the same because we're all in it together and celebrating the nation's birthday, not because it is easy — but because it is hard. This isn't my love letter to America. That will come tomorrow. But it is my way of saying that no one should lead this country who wants it to be anything other than what it was born to be: free. /// This is a public episode.

Justin Currie - lead singer of Del Amitri - and Debsey Wykes - frontwoman of Dolly Mixture - join Joe for a natter about their memoirs, music, writing, forgotten histories and much more.Justin talks about touring America, then and now, how the US took Del Amitri under their wings and, essentially, helped him buy a house!Debsey talks about touring with The Undertones and U2, keeping an archive - and writing to remember.They also recommend us some brilliant books that they have enjoyed recently!THE BOOK OFF'The Haunting Of Hill House' by Shirley JacksonVS'Train Dreams' by Denis JohnsonHere's a little more info on our guest's memoirs:'The Tremelo Diaries' by Justin Currie It's 2022 and we join Justin at the doctor's office, looking down the barrel of a Parkinson's diagnosis. After concerned fans noticed a tremor in his hand, Currie sought the medical advice which led him to the discovery that would throw his future into uncertainty. The immediate fallout of his diagnosis is laid bare in Currie's candid, stream of consciousness voice. A voice that is also by turns poetic, self-deprecating and darkly humorous across a series of diary entries that capture Justin's innermost feelings ― part travelogue, part confessional. Following a coming to terms with the situation whilst on tour in the U.S, the second half of the story joins Currie in 2024, supporting Simple Minds on tour with Del Amitri. Anger, heartbreak and a looming sense of finality concoct a terse relationship between what once was and what may never be. Yet, page after page, what prevails is the achingly perfect timing of his acerbic wit.The Tremolo Diaries is a beautiful and unique meditation on illness and aging. It is a twilight years reflection on band life in the 21st Century. It's a travelogue around the world's art galleries, parks, bars and sites of natural beauty. And most importantly, it is about love and friendship, adversity and courage, life and loss.In a first-of-its-kind exploration of Parkinson's by a multi-platinum selling musician, The Tremolo Diaries looks the dramatic irony of Currie's affliction in the eye, puts down the guitar, and returns the needle to the start of the song.'Teenage Daydream: We Are The Girls That Play In The Band' by Debsey Wykes Debsey Wykes' memoir is a vivid coming-of-age story from one of the UK's earliest female post-punk musicians. As bassist and vocalist in cult trio Dolly Mixture, Wykes was thrown into the male-dominated music world of the late 1970s, brushing against fame with an unlikely No.1 hit alongside Captain Sensible before finding long-term acclaim through her work with Saint Etienne.Told with charm and defiance, the book revisits a youth shaped by DIY ethics, schoolgirl friendship, and the thrill of performance. It features appearances from key figures of the era — including Paul Weller, Madness, and The Pogues — and captures the spirit of a scene where handmade hula skirts met Top of the Pops.Now performing with both Saint Etienne and her group Birdy, Wykes reflects on the enduring appeal of Dolly Mixture, whose reissues remain in high demand. Teenage Daydream is a rare, first-hand account of a woman forging her path through punk's golden age. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Stephen Starr didn't plan to get into the restaurant business.He set out to be a radio DJ. Then a nightclub owner. Then a music promoter.Along the way, he booked a young Jerry Seinfeld for $75, promoted shows for U2 and Madonna, and spent years pretending to be more successful than he really was.Then, in his late 30s, Stephen walked into a glitzy martini bar in New York.He was so taken with it, he decided to start his own version in Philadelphia.Today, Starr Restaurant Group generates nearly half a billion dollars in annual revenue and includes some of the most successful independent restaurants in America: Pastis, Buddakan, Le Diplomate, Parc, Makoto, and dozens more.The surprising part?Stephen did not start out as a foodie.Instead, he became obsessed with the theatre of dining: design, upholstery, lighting, music. A “wow!” feeling when you walk in the door.In this conversation with Guy, Stephen talks about the hard lessons he learned in the comedy and music business, and the unexpected path he took to redefining dining.What You'll Learn:The unglamorous economics of rock concerts and restaurantsHow rejection, romantic heartbreak, and failure can become powerful motivatorsWhy he believes he's spent his career "throwing the party" without attending itHow building the right team of designers can make a restaurant feel magicalWhy Stephen says today's entrepreneurs have a much harder path than his generation didThe model Stephen says new restaurateurs should follow todayTimestamps:00:06:03 — A lonely childhood: Making up skits in his room00:09:49 — Losing his mother at age 1900:11:17 — Starting a comedy club: Deli by day.
