This week we chat with author and science blogger Bethany Brookshire who shares her knowledge about how music works, its importance to community, and its impact on culture. We address questions like: How do our brains process music? How do vocal cords work? Why do we perceive dissonance differently? Why are some cultures thought of as more musical than others? How do tone deafness and rhythm deafness relate to each other? And the importance of music education. It turned out to be one of the most fascinating discussions we've ever had.
After that, we do our Picks of the Week and talk about new releases like the new Cure album, the Tears for Fears concert film, country artist Elizabeth Cook, the new documentary about composer John Williams, a concert by the Jayhawks, and more!
Please visit https://bethanybrookshire.com/ to connect with Bethany and get information about her articles and books.

Our recent episodes on 1984 and Purple Rain have really put us in a particular mood, so now we're waxing nostalgic (pun intended) about the heyday of cassette culture! We're joined by author ROB DREW, whose new book Unspooled: How the Cassette Made Music Shareable examines the enormous impact that cassettes had on the music industry and cultural landscape. Our conversation ranges from the art and science of mix tapes to indie metal and punk bands who spread their music via cassettes, and from how the cassette changed the way artists recorded albums to congressional hearings to decide if home taping should be illegal.

1984 was an incredible year for music, and it was a particularly strong year for hard rock and metal. We're joined by guests Courtland Lewis and Matt Alschbach of the Rock and Metal Profs Podcast for a great discussion of what factors made 1984 such a highwater mark for the genre, and we review some of our favorite releases of the year. We spotlight albums by Van Halen, KISS, Dio, Iron Maiden, Deep Purple, Queenryche, Ratt, Metallica, Dokken, Scorpions, plus a whole lot more. And of course no discussion of the metal releases of 1984 would be complete without a mention of the soundtrack to the classic film This is Spinal Tap!
And because we love you and want to make your life easier, we made a playlist of (almost) all the music discussed in this episode. You can find that on Spotify here:

Filmmaker Olivia Serafini-Sauli hung around the New York music scene in the 90s, and she always had her camera at the ready. So when her friends in the band The New Rising Sons were on the verge of having all their dreams come true, she was there to chronicle it. However, in spite of sold out shows, a major label record deal, and a debut album recorded at a legendary studio, the band's dream came to a sudden end.
Now, 30 years later, the debut NRS album has finally been released on Arctic Rodeo Recordings, and Olivia has taken all of her archival footage plus brand new interviews with band members, producers, record execs, and our very own Stephanie Seymour (who was a friend of the band and worked at Virgin Records when they were signed) to tell the complete story of the New Rising Sons.

Rock fans would have first gotten to know Michael Cartellone from his work as the drummer in the band Damn Yankees with Tommy Shaw, Jack Blades, and Ted Nugent. After that, he joined the band Accept, and since 1999 he has been the drummer for Lynyrd Skynyrd, with whom he has toured extensively and played on eight albums. He’s worked with many other artists over the years, like Peter Frampton, John Fogerty, Freddie Mercury, and Eddie Jobson. But he’s also an accomplished visual artist. His work has been featured on NBC, CBS, CNN, twice on the cover of Fine Arts Magazine, and in a full-page article in The Washington Post. His work has had Gallery Exhibitions in New York City (Soho), Los Angeles, Phoenix, Long Island, and Las Vegas, and will be featured in a new exhibition called Bella Italia, this May in Asheville, NC.

This week we have the privilege of speaking with Ian Wright of the band The Jack Rubies! The band first hit the scene in the mid-80s with a series of British singles. After signing to TVT Records, they released two full-length albums, Fascinatin' Vacation in 1988 and See The Money in My Smile in 1990. They're now back, 34 years later, with their new album Clocks Are Out of Time on Big Stir Records. We talk with Ian about the band's history, the new deal with Big Stir, the journey to regain control of their masters from TVT, and how the new album was put together across two continents in the middle of a global pandemic.

This week we have the pleasure of chatting with Grammy Award-winning recording engineer Craig Alvin. Craig has worked with artists like Hanson, Little Big Town, Amy Grant, Andrew Bell, and Brittany Howard, as well as on projects ranging from metal to symphonic to African marimba bands. He engineered the three most recent Kasey Musgraves albums, including the massive Grammy winner Golden Hour (2018) and her newest record, Deeper Well (released March 15, 2024). In February of 2024, he announced the opening of his brand new studio, Noble Steed, in Muscle Shoals, Alabama. Our conversation covers his career, very nerdy questions about his new studio, Country Music gatekeepers, and his love of Yacht Rock.

On February 11, Beyonce surprise-released a new country-western single, "Texas Hold 'Em", along with a second song "16 Carriages", the first two singles from her upcoming country music album. The song became the first recording by a Black woman to gain the #1 spot on the Billboard Hot Country Songs chart, despite some country radio stations initially refusing to play it. Rob and Alan, joined by good buddy JM Tuffley, take a listen to the new songs and turn the conversation to other artists who have crossed genre lines in their career, like David Bowie, Johnny Cash, Elvis, Ray Charles, and many others (even Ethel Merman!).
