Listen without ads on patreon: www.patreon.com/dopeypodcast This week on Dopey! We open the show with a deep dive into Lou Reed's classic junkie anthem "Waiting for the Man" before reading incredible listener stories involving MDMA-assisted therapy, smashing open a safe with an axe for OxyContin, smoking crack in an airplane bathroom, a horrific flesh-eating abscess, and surviving Antabuse mixed with opioids. Then legendary author Jerry Stahl returns for one of the funniest and deepest conversations Dopey has ever had. Jerry shares never-before-heard stories about writing for Twin Peaks, working with David Lynch and Ben Stiller, learning from Hubert Selby Jr., meeting William Burroughs' son, Oprah admitting she loved crack, surviving heroin addiction, and why kindness matters more than bitterness. The conversation ends with Dave pitching Jerry his outrageous action movie idea: Die Hard... at Katz's Delicatessen.

Welcome back to When Words Fail, Music Speaks, the podcast where host James Cox—himself a lifelong champion of music's healing power—delves into the stories, science, and soul behind live performance. In today's episode, James sits down with Nate Terracio, director of the Kroger Center for the Arts and a former chemist turned arts‑leader, to explore how a free, outdoor concert series is reshaping Columbia's cultural landscape.Together they discuss the challenges of moving concerts outdoors—weather, logistics, and the magic of “rain‑or‑shine” shows—while highlighting the community‑building spirit that informal, open‑air gigs create. Nate shares how his scientific background fuels his problem‑solving approach to programming, his love for eclectic line‑ups (from classic‑rock “MTV Unplugged” vibes to modern tribute bands), and his vision for making high‑quality arts experiences accessible to every fan, regardless of taste or ticket price.The conversation also drifts into the deeper psychology of live music: why seeing a performer is as vital as hearing them, the goose‑bumps‑inducing energy of shared audiences, and the irreplaceable warmth of analog sound. Nate reveals his personal “Mount Rushmore” of musical inspirations—Beck, The Velvet Underground, Jane's Addiction, and the Jazz at Lincoln Center Orchestra—offering a window into the eclectic soundtrack that shapes his curatorial choices.Stay tuned for behind‑the‑scenes anecdotes, future plans for the Kroger Center's Thursday‑after‑work series, and a rapid‑fire lightning round that uncovers Nate's favorite venues, sounds, and the most stressful production role. Whether you're a music lover, a community organizer, or simply looking for a dose of inspiration, this episode proves once again that when words fail, music truly speaks.
On this episode, Marc talks Barry Walters, author of "Mighty Real: A History of LGBTQ Music, 1969-2000," published in May of 2026. It's a fascinating version of music history focused on LGBTQ musicians and audiences, with chapters centered on specific artistsm from the Velvet Underground through David Bowie up to Judas Priest, Diana Ross, Prince, Depeche Mode, and so many more. Walters delves into each with the eye of a seasoned rock critic and the skill of a journalist, telling their stories and measuring their impact on LBGTQ culture and society as a whole. As he writes, "Straight critics have been telling us how to hear our music for ages, so I'm simply offering a queer alternative—based on forty years of professional research and two prior decades of fandom, with insights gleaned not only from when these records were new and we experienced them in the moment but also from retrospection and insider information."We hope you enjoy Marc's conversation with Barry Walters!
This week on "How We Heard It," your hosts talk about bands and singers they haven't mentioned often on the show but who deserve to have their stories told. For example: How did Lauryn Hill squander the record-breaking fame and adulation for her solo debut so badly that she never released another studio album? Or why didn't Lou Reed's counterpart in The Velvet Underground have anything close to Reed's success? Then there's the Australian pop sensation who has been churning out hits since the 1980s and has achieved Madonna-like status around the world, even though in the U.S. she's only a minor star ... because she HASN'T had a scandal? Also, there's the British act that's been a phenomenon all across Europe but has proven too acerbic for Americans. The episode includes others, from Marty Stuart and The Band to Men At Work and Jamiroquai. And find out what happened to the Chainsmokers during the 2020 pandemic that took them from the middle of everything right off the radar. That's show business: You can go from overwhelming success one minute to obscurity the next. But it's still better than some mind-numbing office job.
Author Barry Walters' latest book "Mighty Real" blurs the line between chronicle and memoir and explores the fascinating history of LGBTQ+ music from the underground dancefloors of the 1970s to the global charts of the 1990s.

Barry also reflects on his daunting experience to record the 21-hour long audiobook. This episode was produced by Andrika De Lanerolle.

BIFF! This week, we're focusing on Album 1-2 punches...that is, albums where the first two songs knock you out. BANG! Our Third Lad is Ben Crum from long-running Elephant 6 band Great Lakes. POW! More than 25 years and eight records on from Great Lakes' classic debut, Ben Crum returns with a fantastic new Great Lakes album, Don't Swim Too Close (HHBTM Records). The immediately accessible record draws from classic rock tradition, echoing both the Americana spirit of The Band and Neil Young and the proto-indie rock of Television and the Velvet Underground. Crum's dry humor bubbles up throughout, tempering heavy, earnest moments with wit. WHAMMO! This is very likely to be the only music podcast you listen to today that incorporates both boxing and Scuffy the Tugboat references. KO!!

Eric Newman and Kate Wolf speak to journalist and music critic Barry Walters about Mighty Real: A History of LGBTQ Music 1969-2000. Spanning three decades of pop, disco, rock, funk, folk, and much more, Mighty Real looks at the power of popular music to challenge sexual norms and gender categories in ways both coded and overt. Covering headliners such as David Bowie, The Velvet Underground, Motown, Nirvana and Judas Priest, to more obscure players like Lavender Country and the lesbian label, Olivia Records, Walters shows how queerness is encoded in the very DNA of some of our most beloved songs and albums. Mighty Real also testifies to how music both reflects the reality of gay culture and, subversively, brings it into the mainstream.
In our previous episode, we went deep into the history of Cabaret Voltaire and their importance to UK industrial and, latterly, dance music. Now, we follow the trail we laid therein by taking a journey through the band's extensive discography, really fleshing out how they went from a Sheffield attic in 1973 to a Patagonian field site recording lizards for David Attenborough. Along the way, we take in televangelists, voodoo, Charles Manson samples, Velvet Underground covers, a near-miss with Todd Terry, and a Taylor Swift pressing-plant mix-up that turned a forgotten ambient track into a viral curiosity decades later.Phil Eaglesham (aka P6 - ex-Stretchheads and De Salvo, current OMO frontman) returns to bestow upon us his encyclopaedic knowledge of the band and British industrial music. We start in 1974 with the lo-fi bedroom experiments of Cabaret Voltaire 1974–76, work through the rough-edged early Rough Trade EPs, the spring-reverb wilderness of Three Mantras and Voice of America, the cult monument that is Red Mecca, and the band's stylistic pivots through Hai!, 2x45, The Crackdown, Micro-Phonies, The Covenant, the Sword and the Arm of the Lord, Code, and beyond. We also pick at the more controversial late chapters, including the major-label years, the slightly-too-late acid house pivot, and Richard H. Kirk's solo reactivation of the name.Along the way, we explore the band as a video production company that happened to make music; their roles as curators and tastemakers via Double Vision; the Burroughs-and-televangelism worldview that made them frighteningly prescient about Reagan-era Christian nationalism; and their unsung debt to Black American music and dub. Chris also offers a wider reflection on what it means to lose the egoless purity of your earliest creative work as ambition and industry pressures take hold.We get deep in the weeds talking about the producers they worked with (Flood, Adrian Sherwood, John Robie, Marshall Jefferson); the labels (Rough Trade, Some Bizzare, Virgin, EMI, Mute); their collaborators and contemporaries (DAF, Wire, Throbbing Gristle, Clock DVA, Soft Cell, New Order, The Shamen); and the bands that lifted from them wholesale (Nine Inch Nails, Ministry, The Rapture, White Zombie, and a generation of Glasgow acts you've heard but can't quite place).It all culminates in us taking a closer look at Eight Crepuscule Tracks, a record that Phil thinks is their best and a very pure statement of what the band can and did achieve. We also settle upon what is perhaps the most important lesson to be gleaned from the Cabs' music: the importance of never compromising on your vision. By entering the belly of the beast and somehow remaining intact, they became one of the rare bands in this corner of music history whom nobody has a bad word for.Highlights00:00 Intro01:18 Welcome Back, Phil02:46 1974–76: Egoless Experimentation04:51 Bedroom Records06:30 Extended Play and DAF07:37 The Velvet Underground Cover08:26 Nag Nag Nag10:20 Van With a PA11:38 Three Mantras12:24 Mix-Up14:50 William Burroughs16:48 Voice of America19:35 Peter Care and Double Vision21:41 Red Mecca24:25 Encyclopaedia Bands27:36 Hai!29:36 2x45 in New York32:07 Sheffield's Family Tree32:55 Chris Watson Leaves36:16 The Crackdown42:23 Micro-Phonies46:38 Covenant, Sword and Arm of the Lord49:48 Drinking Gasoline51:45 Code54:58 Listen Up and Reissues57:12 Groovy, Laidback and Nasty1:00:15 Body and Soul1:03:56 Shadow of Fear1:04:51 The Taylor Swift Accident1:08:27 Richard Kirk's Death1:14:50 Bus Shelter Bashes1:19:58 Sincerity vs Seriousness1:25:00 Debt to Black Music1:29:00 Eight Crepuscule Tracks1:51:00 Why Everyone Loves Cab Vol1:58:36 Coming Soon: Coil?!

We look at this Harvard Business Review Press book about Taylor Swift. For more about the book, see here. There's Nothing Like This: The Strategic Genius of Taylor Swift, reviewed This book is certainly readable. As someone who is aware of who she is, knows a few songs, and has teenagers who may have even gone to see her in concert there are reasons why this book was of potential interest for reviewing. The author also cites a lot of business management and thoughtful marketing thinkers too, Clayton Christiansen and Seth Godin yes we are talking about you here. Similarly words like pivot and pilot are used with business dev enthusiasm. This is all fine and dandy, but, as we read it, it was hard not to wonder if this was an attempt to shoehorn the career of Taylor Swift into a startup ethos vibe. The other question, and challenge in reading this narrative, was that, were we looking at Taylor Swift's career through the prism of a confirmation bias. She was, now is, wildly successful for sure, but does that mean that all of her albums, and her musical steps, and decisions made were actually that strategic or as carefully considered as the subtitle of this book would like us to think? As Bill Gates may have said, success can be a lousy teacher. All the more so when you consider musical careers. Lou Reed was an awful grump and cranky guy, if many accounts are to be believed, the Velvet Underground were both wildly unsuccessful first time around, and yet created some great songs and are considered to be one of the seminal and most important bands to have come out of the sixties. Was this therefore a clever strategic performance, or did they, eventually, stumble onto fame and fortune. Walk on the wild side and Waiting for my Man would hardly be obvious topics towards musical stardom. Coming back to Taylor, the book was informative, interesting, but the business analogies felt a bit clunky at times. Many fans felt that The Tortured Poets Department was a good single, or perhaps double album, lost in a triple. It would have been good to see how the author factored in this mishmash of an album in the slightly breathless prose of her faultless strategic rise to the top? Perhaps the classic result of so many triples, like Sandanista for example, so great songs, mixed in with some slightly to very odd ones too. This book might fall between too stools, not Taylor enough for TS fans, and a bit of a reach for business insights for those coming from a business or marketing background. More about the book here A smart, page-turning exploration of the business and creative decisions that transformed Taylor Swift into an unprecedented modern cultural phenomenon. Singer-songwriter. Trailblazer. Mastermind. The Beatles of her generation. From her genre-busting rise in country music as a teenager to the economic juggernaut that is the Eras Tour, Taylor Swift has blazed a path that is uniquely hers. But how exactly has she managed to scale her success–multiple times–while dominating an industry that cycles through artists and stars like fashion trends? How has she managed to make and remake herself time and again while remaining true to her artistic vision? And how has she managed to master the constant disruption in the music business that has made it so hard for others to adapt and endure? In "There's Nothing Like This," Kevin Evers, a senior editor at "Harvard Business Review," answers these questions in riveting detail. With the same thoughtful analysis usually devoted to iconic founders, game-changing innovators, and pioneering brands, Evers chronicles the business and creative decisions that have defined each phase of Swift's career. Mixing business and art, analysis and narrative, and pulling from research in innovation, creativity, psychology, and strategy, "There's Nothing Like This" presents Swift as the modern and multidimensional superstar that she is–a songwriting savant and a strategic genius. Swift's fans will see their icon from a ...
这期节目,我想分享一位在华语世界或许略显小众,但绝对值得你用心聆听的伟大音乐人——ANOHNI(曾以 Antony and the Johnsons 的名字为人所知)。她的声音横跨了男女音域,带着一种极具辨识度的颤音。那是一种被世界狠狠拒绝过,却依然试图温柔拥抱世界的频率。她的声音像祈祷,也像伤口。它唱童年里没有位置的孤独,唱跨性别者对身体与灵魂合一的渴望,唱被河流带走的酷儿前辈,也唱正在消失的动物、树木、雪与地球。从一个在教堂和学校里找不到座位的跨性别孩子,到纽约东村地下俱乐部的前卫剧场;从凭借《I Am a Bird Now》拿下水星音乐奖,到用电子乐向气候危机与父权体制发出尖锐抗议。ANOHNI 的音乐轨迹,是一部从私密悲伤走向宏大史诗的生命线。我们常常把人生过成了一场寻找“标准答案”的巨大考试。当你发现自己的存在、你的真实感受与这个世界期待的“正确答案”背道而驰时,那种苦痛该如何度过?或许,你能从 ANOHNI 的故事里找到答案。她一路唱的,其实是人如何在被伤害之后,依然保留爱,最终把自己活成一条通往他人的路。如果你也曾感到自己不属于这里,如果你也曾在人群中感到格格不入,希望这期节目能为你造一间安全的房间,也为你带来直面真实感受的勇气。

A two-season black-and-white sitcom leaves a 60-year shadow, a band logo becomes more famous than the band name, and a random music reference boomerangs back into your week at the perfect moment. That's the lane we love: pop culture history that feels like real life, where classic rock stories sit right next to TV theme songs and the little memories that make certain tracks impossible to forget.We start with The Addams Family and why the characters, jokes, and visuals still land. From there we follow the thread into TV music history with Vic Mizzy, including his connection to Green Acres, and we detour into some old-school Hollywood facts that make you hear those familiar themes a little differently.Then we go bigger on music culture: the origin of the Rolling Stones tongue and lips logo, how it first appeared in 1971, and what inspired it. We also tip our hat to creators who don't always get the spotlight, like Chip Taylor (Wild Thing and Angel of the Morning) and arranger Ted Nichols, whose work helped define the sound of classic cartoons. Add a Minute With Jimmy on Andy Warhol and the Velvet Underground's Exploding Plastic Inevitable, plus reflections on Bowie, The Police, Hall and Oates, and INXS, and you've got a packed nostalgia podcast built for curious music fans.If you like music history, classic rock deep dives, and the stories behind the sounds, subscribe, share this with a friend, and leave us a review.

Swami John Reis of Rocket from the Crypt and Drive Like Jehu digs deep on record collecting, the thrill of the hunt, running Swami Records, and why the next release always matters most. Get yer tix to the Punk Rock Museum's 3rd Anniversary Show here Topics Include: Swami John Reis joins to talk record collecting and Punk Rock Museum. His collection is evolving — trading old hardcore for more desired records. Collection is 95% 45s, driven by a lifelong musical pursuit. Early punk led him to hunt for MC5, Stooges, Velvet Underground. The thrill: records still exist that nobody knows about yet. Digging through boxes feels calming, healthy, and satisfying every time. Hawaii vintage shop surprise — radio station collection hidden outside for decades. Detroit and Pittsburgh are his highest strike-rate cities for finds. Always ask the clerk — the best stuff is never on the floor. Styrene vs vinyl: the label sticker is the definitive tell. Making records informed his collecting — plain white sleeves, big hole 45s. Pressing plant relationships are everything; affordability is the biggest challenge. Customs delays under the current administration are wrecking release schedules badly. Major labels scrapped their own pressing plants — now everyone competes for time. Marketing records stopped making sense; the artist always drives interest anyway. Every record is essentially limited and out of print from day one. Smaller runs mean no unsold closet stock and more collector value later. Hot Snakes packaging and Rick Griffin's creativity still inspire him deeply. Upcoming: Sultans reissue, Mrs. Magician LP, new Swami John Reis record. Schizophonics collaboration in the works — the next thing is always the thing.

But only one can succeed between Dylan and Lou Reed, and we've brought star of "Disney's The Kid" and "The Santa Clause" 2 and 3 Spencer Breslin to help us decide which of the rambly hipsters makes the prettier tribute to love, Bob Dylan's "Lay Lady Lay" or the Velvet Underground's "Sweet Jane"?

You'll never guess which one of us is eating more tinned fish?!?!? We talk cowboy movies, but we can hardly hear what we are saying due to all the licorice (not really) behind me. We cover the best MN albums, splitting food, and of course we check out strip club reviews. Then we talk about the worst the Velvet Underground album we have heard yet so we cleanse the palate with Bringing Down the Horse and it fucking rips. Great job Wallflowers. Next week, Entertainment! by Gang of Four. It's fun!
"Howlin' Wind" from Graham Parker and the Rumour celebrates its 50th anniversary in 2026. And so does "Heat Treatment!" What better way to celebrate the anniversaries than to have Graham himself to discuss the album. Plenty of other discussion including the Winter Olympics, prog rock, not knowing how to market Graham (especially in America), blues bands, Bruce & Bob comparisons, and Graham's 5 favorite albums (du jour) including some Otis and Velvet Underground. Big shoutout to Jay Nachman, author of "Graham Parker's Howlin' Wind" for setting this up for us.

Send a textHi everybody and welcome to today's episode of Attendance Bias. I am your host, Brian Weinstein. Before we get started with today's episode, I just want to remind everyone that if you enjoy the podcast, you can show your support by leaving a rating and review of it wherever you get your podcasts. You can also visit www.buymeacoffee.com/attendancebias and donate anything you can to keep the podcast going. Now, onto today's episode:I've spoken a lot on this podcast about how different Phish years have different personalities. When Attendance Bias was first getting off the ground, I had an unofficial goal to learn more about the 1999 Phish calendar year. But at this point, about five years in, I think that 1998 is the more intangible year. Everyone loves 1997, we've covered a lot of shows and jams from 1999, but 1998 remains elusive. The band was still funky, but they also kept their guitar-powered speed rock and combined it with a ton of unexpected cover songs that kept the crowd guessing. If we could distill the cagey feeling of 1998 into one show, it may be today's: Matt Huber is here to explain what it was like to attend Phish's show from August 1, 1998 at Alpine Valley. A classic venue that, in this case, featured Phish at the top of their game during an under-explored summer.Matt and I have a lot to say about today's show, but there's this inescapable feeling that, even with a 90 minute episode, there's a lot left unsaid. We talk about the summer of covers, imaginary conversations between band members, and even compare Fikus to Quadrophonic Toppling. This is a nerdy episode, and we go out there. But, maybe what makes 1998 such a great year for Phish has yet to be defined no matter how much we talk.In the meantime, Matt and I give it our best shot today. Let's join Matt Huber to discuss The Story of the Ghost, The Velvet Underground, and who should take the high vocal parts at August 1, 1998 at Alpine Valley in East Troy, Wisconsin.Support the show
Sonny Vincent fronted Testors in the mid-1970s New York punk scene, playing CBGB and Max's Kansas City before the band split in 1981. He later formed Sonny Vincent and the Extreme and Model Prisoners, and went on to record and tour with Maureen "Mo" Tucker and Sterling Morrison from the Velvet Underground. He has continued releasing records and wrote the memoir Snake Pit Therapy.

Lou Reed blurred the lines between fact and fiction when it came to his past. To him, it was all a walk on the wild side anyway. After exploring his life in Part 1 through his lyrics for the Velvet Underground songs “The Gift”, “Waiting For My Man”, “Heroin” and “The Murder Mystery”, Part 2 continues through the songs “Rock And Roll”, “Sweet Jane”, “Run, Run, Run”, “Venus In Furs”, and “I'll Be Your Mirror,” because tall tales and music led Lou all the way home.
