The VICE Magazine Podcast is your definitive guide to enlightening information. Weâre in the middle of celebrating the release of our 11th annual Fiction Issue. Inside the magazine, we curated a special subsection of personal stories about losing your temper. Akhil Sharma wrote about a bully, Walter Kirn wrote about a rooster, and David Shields and Allen Pearl also participated. But today weâre highlighting âRage Blackouts,â Sadie Steinâs personal essay from the section.
In Steinâs essay, she discusses how small annoying incidents throughout the day (âthe whole store-full of old ladies who banged their carts into me at Zabarsâ) will piss her off, but she smileâs through the ordeal, holding it all in. âThen it all comes out at nightâ in extreme dreams, which includes shouting expletives and punching in her sleep, usually while her husband sleeps next to her (wielding heavy-duty earplugs).
Stein stopped by the office to chat about how she deals with her ârage blackoutsââsleeping on airplanes is out of the questionâher writing process, and more.

Eve Peyser, our politics staff writer, got great access to Jill Stein, who was the Green Partyâs candidate for president in the 2012 and 2016 elections. In the piece, Eve spends time at Steinâs home in Boston talking to her about last yearâs election, how other politicians and pundits view her, and more. You can read the full profile on VICE.com, but for now: Hereâs senior politics editor Harry Cheadle interviewing Eve on what Stein was like in person, whether Democrats should try to win Green Party voters, and what the response to the piece has been.

The VICE Magazine Podcast is your definitive guide to enlightening information. Since this is the last episode on our Music Issue, I wanted to tackle questions about how changes in technology have affected the state of the music industry todayâfor better or worse.
In the age of streaming, with access to millions of songs, how do you figure out what to listen to? And how is that process different than it was ten years ago? What role will vinyl play in the future of music? What effect, if any, will streaming have on traditional notions of artistry? To answer these questions and more, Iinvited Eric Sundermann, editor-in-chief at Noisey; Emilie Friedlander, senior features editor at VICE and former editor-in-chief of Thump; and Dan Ozzi, writer and editor at Noisey, to join me in a roundtable discussion.

The VICE Magazine Podcast is your definitive guide to enlightening information. Our second annual Music Issue, a collaboration with our music site, Noisey, came out earlier this month, so weâre highlighting stories from the issue on our podcast. This week, Jason Leopold talks about his latest installment of Classified, a column where he breaks down the files heâs received from Freedom of Information Act requests.
As this year marks the 50th anniversary of the Doorsâ self-titled debut album, Jason had hoped to write about the band. He found an FBI labeled âSUBJECT: THE DOORS,â but after opening it, he discovered the file only included letters referencing the politically charged 60s rock group the Fugs. Turns out, in 1969 a concerned citizen offended by the Fugsâ music, and drafted a letter to a US senator and the director of the FBI, requesting they ban the bandâs music. Hereâs Jason with more.

The VICE Magazine Podcast is your definitive guide to enlightening information. Our second annual Music Issue, a collaboration with our music site, Noisey, came out last week. In the issue, Lawrence Burney, a staff writer at Noisey, writes about his trip to Louisiana to hang out with members of Pink Room Project, a young collective pushing the musical legacy of New Orleans into the future.
The collective, also known as the Pink, was founded by New Orleans natives Keith Cavalier, a 29-year-old producer known as Lil Jodeci, and Brandon Ares, a 25-year-old rapper. They host popular parties and DJ nights that feature a range of genres, from bounce to rap to house music.

Welcome to the VICE Magazine Podcast, your definitive guide to enlightening information. Our monthly podcast is now a weekly podcast. We kicked off our new format last week with a discussion on race and toxic masculinity, and this time around, we have a lighter (and much) beloved topic: The Simpsons. Noisey, VICEâs music site, recently ran a theme week on the intersection of music and TV. It covered everything from Chapelleâs Show to Beavis and Butt-Head and even managed to work in an article on Law & Orderâs âdun dunâ sound. For the theme week, Dan Ozzi, an editor at Noisey, co-wrote a feature with Alex Robert Ross about the iconic 1996 episode of The Simpsons, âHomerpalooza,â which had tons of rock stars, like the Smashing Pumpkins and Peter Frampton, playing themselves. So we had Dan on the show, to talk about the episodeâs relevance and lasting impact.

The VICE Magazine Podcast is your definitive monthly guide to enlightening information. Each episode brings in-depth interviews, sonically rich cultural insights, and a rare glimpse into how we make the issue. Since September is smack dab in the middle of two of our favorite themed issuesâAugustâs annual Photo Issue and our upcoming second annual Music Issue in Octoberâwe took it a bit easier on ourselves this month and put together a themeless one. But we still have plenty of compelling stories inside. Hereâs our table of contents:
â˘Photo editor Elizabeth Renstrom explains our claustrophobic cover image and how, through a happy accident, the photographer was able to get the shot.
â˘Starting with this episode, weâve replaced Haisam Husseinâs âHow It Worksâ column with a new segment called âWhy We Wear It,â a look at the history of popular fashion items. Alice Newell-Hanson, the managing editor of i-D in the US, gives us a lesson on the emergence of the fanny pack and notes how itâs coming back into fashion.
â˘Jason Leopold, our Freedom of Information Act expert, reveals how 66 years ago, the FBI opened an investigation into Ben Bagdikian, a reporter best known for obtaining a copy of the Pentagon Papers.
â˘VICE UKâs Bruno Bayley chats with photographer David Severn about his âThanks, Maggieâ project.

â˘Deputy editor Erika Allen interviews Krishna Andavolu, the host and executive producer of Weediquette, about an upcoming episode of his show, which follows a mother who smoked weed while pregnant. His report on her and other womenâs use of pot while pregnantâto treat morning sickness and other discomforts associated with pregnancyâreveals how the law judges them more harshly than others. â˘Marina Garcia Vasquez, editor-in-chief of Creators at VICE, tells us about an artifact she received while putting together NSFW: Female Gaze, an exhibit at the Museum of Sex in New York City, which showcases more than 25 emerging female artists from various disciplines dedicated to powerful feminine narratives.

This month, we present the Salute Your Shorts Issue. Itâs themeless, but in putting it together, we found a common thread: Many of the stories here focus on heated domestic problemsâfrom Trumpâs first 100 days in office, to US deportation policy, to the creation of special units for trans women detained in jails and ICE facilities across the country. Hereâs our table of contents: Photo editor Elizabeth Renstrom explains where we found this monthâs G-string wearing, Hillary Clintonâsupporting geriatric cover star. Jason Leopold, our Freedom of Information Act expert, takes a close look at the FBI file of a woman behind whatâs widely considered the longest political protest in US history. Journalist Sarah Esther Maslin talks to ChrisCarroll about how US deportation policy is stoking gang violence across the nation, investigating a series of recent murders on Long Island at the hands of the El Salvadoran gang MS-13.

Unlike last monthâs episode that focused on the future of tech, our March issue is objectively themeless. However, in the process of creating this podcast⌠we found a few through lines. In many ways, this episode is about identity. From the frog on our cover, to a rapper dealing with his perception in our media landscape, to the refugee crisis in Greece, this episode deals with people striving to break the molds that have been forced upon them.
Here is our table of contents:
Photo-editor Elizabeth Renstrom explains how the cover of our March issue might make you do a double take.
Infographic virtuoso Haisam Hussein hits the jackpot with a set of facts about global lotteries. Author, illustrator, and activist, Molly Crabapple reveals to senior editor Chris Carroll that Greece's anarchists might be taking better care of refugees than the government. Our own Erika Allen interviews Noiseyâs Kyle Kramer about his time in the studio interviewing rapper Vince Staples. Finally, Chloe Campion, a producer at VICE, shares a story about an item she picked up while hiking in Nepal. Hereâs your chance to take a guess at what it is.Hosted on Acast.
