The Writer’s Almanac - 1 July 2023: *Music as a means of detecting a Heart - It’s not often a person gets to experience euphoria. For years I imagined alcohol could do the job if I could just find the right brand but eventually I gave up on that. Sometimes in church I’ve felt it. When I was 11 I got to go to the top of the Empire State Building. I sang the Dead’s “Attics of My Life” once with two women and got a little high from it. And one night before the Philharmonic I experienced it at the Bowery Ballroom on Delancey Street listening to Aoife O’Donovan and Hawktail and the phenom fiddler Brittany Haas and it made the big crowd go wild to see artists overcome gravity and simply float.Aoife and Messiaen, two transcendent tours on successive nights: it makes living in Manhattan worth the trouble and expense. You can eat expensive mediocre food in loud restaurants, almost get run over by e-scooters, deal with surly salesclerks, cabs stuck in dense traffic, extortionate rents, impenetrable bureaucracy, but the museums and trains and tulips in spring and the occasional transcendental experiences make up for it. Two nights of mind-blown beauty make me want to start my career all over again. 


Sounds Profitable - 1 May 2024: Podcasting in India, Q1 Revenue growth, and more - Here's what you need to know for today in the business of podcasting: City Casts and the value of local focus, a new report on podcast listeners in India, Magellan AI's Q1 2024 podcast advertising benchmarks, Right Side Up's guide on measuring success for influencer marketing campaigns, and The New York times covers podcast companies building out their video shooting capabilities. / Find links to every article mentioned and the full write-up here on Sounds Profitable. [I found the link as it was missing from the show notes. Also, I’ve heard it a few times now, and wondered if I should be irritated by the fact that the Sirius XM boss is going to be interviewed by James Cordon on day one of The Podcast Show in London? The next bit of my notes has replaced my original reaction. Initially I was irritated, but luckily I left this in the editing stage for a couple of days, and my opinion has changed. I had been asked by the organisers of The Podcast Show to put a proposal together for a presentation in front of a live audience, to which my proposal was essentially a live episode of Pods Like Us with a guest of their choosing. It was not to be and, as much as I want to go to The Podcast Show, I’ve decided that I can’t afford to. The cost of the tickets is £250 for the two days, as I would want the platinum level, so that I can meet creatives, and hopefully push my own work while I’m there, and I don’t see me getting that with the cheaper tickets. I would also have to pay to stay in a hotel I’ve those days as well, which in itself is an expense. I earn minimum wage, and haven’t been able to afford to go out for a day in the last five or so years. As much as this would be a potentially good thing, I can’t see the potential of not paying rent and being evicted as a good thing, which is the money I would have to pay to do that. Over the last year I lost around £700 of pay one month with being off sick, over £400 when I accidentally put the wrong fuel in a car, and so much more has been paid out. Paying over £500 to repair my previous car, only for someone to smash into and write it off a few days after picking it up from the garage was something that really pissed me off. I’m spending so much money on bills that it’s depressing, and I don’t want the extra worry of possibly making us homeless to be another. I’m sorry. I was looking forward to meeting Arielle Nisenblatt, James Cridland, Tom Webster, and so many others there, who I would happily have shared drinks with, and enjoyed the company of. Going out and having fun is obviously not in the cards. Have fun there everyone. Anyway, having James Cordon chat with the CEO of Sirius XM about podcasting makes sense, because James is high profile, and hopefully would push the profile of podcasting up with the interest that external media would have with anything that James Cordon does, and his fame is international. Well done.]

Phase Zero - 3 May 2024: Brandon distorts big time with the huge intro “phaaaaaassssseeeeeee zeeeerooo!!!” He’s joined by regular co-hosts Jenna and Aaron. I’m guessing that Jamie is off today. Brandon has his steel chair. Kraven The Hunter film delay. Brilliant irony that it’s up against the Lion King prequel in the cinemas, as well as Sonic 3 and a new Lord of The Rings universe film. Chris Hemsworth’s negative comments about Thor Love and Thunder. Robert Downey Jr disagrees with Chris. Tattoo discussion. The Russo Brothers were asked about Robert Downey Jr’s possible future in the MCU. I think that BD is right in that they’re done with the MCU as directors and creators. More discussion about a possible Spider-Man 4. Falcon and Winter Soldier deleted scene discussion. Character confirmation and reveals for Captain America New World Order through merchandise at McDonald’s and Walmart. Shaun Levy talking about people not needing to research any previous films to be ready for Deadpool and Wolverine. Aaron’s spicy nugget is about a post that actor Michael B Jordan put up and then quickly deleted. I think they could be wrong in that it could be a link to Killmonger from Black Panther being in Deadpool 3 and not the character he played in Fantastic Four. Reactions to episode eight of X-Men 97.
