No new episode this week, but here's one from the catalog that we think you should get into.Originally released in 2024, on this episode we talked about Mr. Big Stuff, The Heavster, The Overweight Lover, out of Moneyearnin' Mount Vernon, the diddly, diddly, diddly, diddly, diddly D. One of a small number of people who have done a song with both Michael and Janet Jackson. The man who is pretty much responsible for kicking off Uptown Records, since he was the first act signed to the label, and as an executive at Uptown he's was instrumental in bringing Jodeci, Monifah, Soul For Real and others to the company.Along with DJ Eddie F, Trouble T-Roy and G-Wiz aka The Boyz, he brought us hit after hit. He could do new jack swing, boom bap, reggae, pop...he could do it all. There have been very few hip hop artists who could seamlessly maneuver through so many styles and genres at such a high level, all while never compromising his authenticity. Since his untimely passing in 2011, he's been sorely missed, and that's why we're talking about none other than Heavy D.If you're enjoying the content that we're making and you're looking for ways to support our independent podcast, here's a little something that you can do:Check out all things TROY at troypodcast.com.Leave a 5-star rating and review on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Goodpods or Podchaser.

James Brown, George Clinton, Jimi, and Sly are all contenders for a “Mount Funkmore.” There's one woman whose face should be carved in that stone with the boys.Long before she was ever a wife and “muse,” Betty Davis was an up-and-coming songwriter, Wilhelmina model, and “it” girl of the New York underground. She gave her hit song “Uptown” to the Chambers Brothers and called Jimi Hendrix and Warhol's Factory her friends. With her substantial influence on her husband Miles Davis, jazz fusion as we know it was born. Betty didn't need a famous man to make her groundbreaking albums: she was a singer, songwriter, arranger, and producer all on her own. Her in-your-face persona is still so fresh, she's got Beyoncé name-dropping her 50 years later! Betty was everything: raunchy, loud, unapologetically fierce, driven, sensitive, and spiritual. Above all, she was real. Get ready for Betty, because the queen of FUNK is here to stay!In addition, the Dolls Pod is honored to welcome professor, ethnomusicologist, DJ, and author of the upcoming “Game Is Her Middle Name: The Life and Music of Betty Davis” Dr. Danielle Maggio to the show. We talked about how her new book came to be, her own friendship with Betty, and celebrated Betty's power and soul.“Betty Davis: Queen of Funk” is available wherever you stream your podcasts ⭐️Preorder “Game Is Her Middle Name: The Life and Music of Betty Davis” by Danielle Maggio from Feminist Press: https://feministpress.org/collections/coming-soon/products/9781558613782-game-is-her-middle-nameFollow Danielle on Instagram: @saucequeen_phd(Episode starts at 3:41)Sources used:Personal interview with Danielle Maggio, PhD (7/25/2026)Danielle Maggio, “‘Sound Projector:' Reissuing, Representing, and Reclaiming the Music of Betty Davis” University of Pittsburgh, 2020Danielle Maggio, “Betty Davis In Japan,” parts 1-7.

The Mississippi is well worth reading about. It is not a commonplace river, but on the contrary is in all ways remarkable. Considering the Missouri its main branch, it is the longest river in the world—four thousand three hundred miles. It seems safe to say that it is also the crookedest river in the world, since in one part of its journey it uses up one thousand three hundred miles to cover the same ground that the crow would fly over in six hundred and seventy-five. It discharges three times as much water as the St. Lawrence, twenty-five times as much as the Rhine, and three hundred and thirty-eight times as much as the Thames. No other river has so vast a drainage-basin: it draws its water supply from twenty-eight States and Territories; from Delaware, on the Atlantic seaboard, and from all the country between that and Idaho on the Pacific slope—a spread of forty-five degrees of longitude. The Mississippi receives and carries to the Gulf water from fifty-four subordinate rivers that are navigable by steamboats, and from some hundreds that are navigable by flats and keels. The area of its drainage-basin is as great as the combined areas of England, Wales, Scotland, Ireland, France, Spain, Portugal, Germany, Austria, Italy, and Turkey; and almost all this wide region is fertile; the Mississippi valley, proper, is exceptionally so.

Jesse Montgomery joins Michael Stauch to discuss It Is Not Enough to Survive: The Young Patriots Story (UNC Press, 2026). They examine how young white migrants from Appalachia and the South fought police brutality, racism, economic exploitation, and displacement through community organizing, and even joined forces with Fred Hampton's Black Panther Party and the Young Lords to create the original Rainbow Coalition in the streets of Chicago in the 1960s and ‘70s. Highlights include: How the Young Patriots evolved from street gang to political organizers active in Chicago's “Hillbilly Harlem,” the Uptown neighborhood; A reminder that poor white workers made up the large majority of migrants from the South during the Great Migrations of the 20th century; How the Young Patriots attempted to “re-signify” the Confederate flag, paralleling efforts by “race traitors” like Noel Ignatiev to reframe white workers in a context of interracial class solidarity; How the story of the Young Patriots is also a story of urban renewal, and the fight against it, in Chicago; A discussion of Merle Haggard's “Okie from Muskogee” and the role of country music in the culture wars of the 1960s. Guest: Jesse Montgomery is a visiting assistant professor of English at Berea College who works on American literature after 1945, Appalachian outmigration, and radical culture.
