Jewish gangsters! SATs! Israeli hardware stores AND the world famous, beloved Whiffenpoofs! Life doesn't get better than this.  Here are the two articles Nathan wrote that we referenced in the show.  https://www.currentaffairs.org/2019/03/the-obama-boys https://www.currentaffairs.org/2020/10/what-happens-in-the-west-wing/

“CO2 is a cumulative pollutant. Once it's released, it effectively is there forever in circulation. The first flight that our grandparents ever took, the first car that was ever driven, that CO2 is still up there.” In this episode we chat with Eli Mitchell-Larson, a former impact investor and social entrepreneur, currently at the Environmental Change Institute at the University of Oxford where he focuses on carbon capture and storage, standards for credible carbon offsetting, and pathways for decarbonizing fossil fuels. Eli is a Tomorrow's Air Supporter and Science Advisor. In this podcast Eli shares how his travels - from the White House to Antarctica - have inspired him, along with his perspective on the role of carbon offsets in voluntary carbon markets, and why all offsets are not created equal. And, unexpectedly closes with a song! Eli's Musical Influences Song List: Green Day: Basket Case Weezer: Island in the Sun RedHot Chili Peppers: Californication Appalachian folk music: Raleigh and Spencer Medieval ballads: Cauldron of Changes

The grandson of an opera singer, Michael Blume took to music at an early age, first learning the piano and trumpet and ultimately touring with an a cappella group while attending Yale. Yes, the it was the Whiffenpoofs. But the singer found his true voice after moving away from academia. Supporting himself in New York first through SAT tutoring and later wedding gigs, Blume has since become and idiosyncratic front man, blending genres and peppering in performance art. To mark the release of his latest track, In Between, Blume joined us to discuss queer identity in music and simple acts of transgression in the age of Trump.

The Smiffenpoofs originated in 1936 after a group of Smithies attended a Yale picnic where the Whiffenpoofs performed. The Smithies were so impressed by the Whiffs' camaraderie and musicality that they decided to form the first women's collegiate a cappella group in the nation, modeling it after the Whiffs and adopting a similar name in their honor. As the story goes, it was on November 23, 1936, that Smith College President William Allan Neilson gave his official approval of the group, gifting them with a leather-bound journal in which to record their history. We were honored to sit down with the Poofs at the end of February to see what this amazing group of women are up to these days. If you want to learn more about the group, you can do so here: http://www.thesmiffenpoofs.com.

Jonathan Coulton and Sara talk about how she has a crush on John Mayer and then Jonathan pretends to be John Mayer; why she wouldn't listen to Jonathan's stuff for a decade and then became a fan in three hours; how we create a persona to hide our terror of not being cool enough; how he loved growing up in Colchester, CT; how he realized his childhood dream of being in the Whiffenpoofs at Yale; how he once impressed a lady by buying Chinese takeout and taking her to a covered bridge; and whether or not he and Sara ate lamb on a stick together. Also, we meet the imaginary hot intern, Daniel, who is majoring in everything at NYU and all the Ivies.

This week we are joined by military historian Dr. Lynette Nusbacher to discuss three 70’s films set in the Napoleonic era. We start with Sergei Bondarchuk’s expensive and Soviet-approved epic Waterloo (1970), pitting scenery-chewing Rod Steiger against Christopher Plummer and his eyebrow, with surely the most bodies on screen we’ve ever seen. Joe’s choice of Stanley Kubrick’s Barry Lyndon (1975) is a gruelling three hours of beautiful tableaux and a somewhat blank performance from Ryan O’Neal in his quest to reach the gentleman sphere. We finish with Ridley Scott’s first feature film The Duellists (1977) visually inspired by Barry Lyndon, narratively inspired by Joseph Conrad, following two cavalry officers honor-bound into repeatedly duelling throughout the course of Napoleon’s campaigns.Also: The world still revolves around Orson Welles. Napoleon wasn’t as short as we’ve been led to believe. 200 year-old spoilers. Bill and Ted’s Excellent Adventure. Lynette Godwins Napoleon. “By God, I’ve lost my leg, sir.” Napoleon always wins, except when it rains. Eyes Wide Barry Lyndon Shut. The Whiffenpoofs. Lynette pulls focus over both of us. The 1595 Club. The Mark 1 eyeball. It all goes a bit Jane Austen. Green Baize Vampire spotted. We play a game of “Yes, Commander” and somehow we don’t mention Sharpe once. Lynette corrects ABBA.

Devlin and Libby are joined by the insanely-talented neo-soul vocalist Michael Blume. Michael shares the shapes of his fear and courage, playing Bonaroo, his upcoming new EP, about performing with Yale's a capella group the Whiffenpoofs, his advocacy as a warrior of social justice, his dream collabs, reads an excerpt from Tiny Tim, and he and Devlin duet on the newest sensation "Etch It on the Glass."

On the West Wing, it’s Toby’s birthday (December 23), and his father visits. On the West Wing Weekly, it’s Josh’s birthday (January 17), and HIS father visits.

Pat, Stu, and Jeffy discuss the Yale Whiffenpoofs, a massive mens capella choir from the Ivy League university. Despite boasting over 1500 members, the group adds only a handful of members each year. And while they do allow women to audition, they are not allowed to join. This begs the question...could Jeffy join if he was simply feeling like a woman?Listen to Pat & Stu for FREE on TheBlaze Radio Network from 5p-7p ET, Mon. through Fri. www.theblaze.com/radioTwitter: @PatandStuFacebook: PatandStu Learn more about your ad choices.

Yet another of our favorite West Wing episodes. If you're a Josh & Donna fan, you'll know exactly why. We get a special visit from Santa which delights CJ at first but leaves the Bartlet inner circle on alert. In all cases, "it's not what it looks like" means "it's EXACTLY what it looks like."

Join us this week as we welcome The Whiffenpoofs Of Yale University. Every year, 14 senior Yale men are selected to be in the Whiffenpoofs, the world's oldest and best-known collegiate a cappella group. Founded in 1909, the "Whiffs" began as a senior quartet that met for weekly concerts at Mory's Temple Bar, the famous Yale tavern. Today, the group has become one of Yale's most celebrated and hallowed traditions. Recently The Whiffenpoofs performed on the television show "The Sing-Off". We will talk to them about their upcoming schedule, get a behind the scenes look at their music, play song selections from the group and ask them to share their efforts to support the troops. Please be sure to visit The Whiffenpoofs at http://www.whiffenpoofs.com for all their latest news. As always we will give shout outs to our deployed military listeners. Be sure to join us, Sunday February 13th 2011 at 4:00 PM EST! Our message to the troops....WE do what we do, because YOU do what you do.
