Lynn Gilbert returns to the podcast for part two of a career-spanning conversation about her photography, finding her path with a camera on the Silk Road, iconic moments for her work at the 2022 Venice Biennale, and an 8-acre garden that has revealed something profound as she’s photographed its expanse. And we talk about the anxiety of creation, no…

Our guest is Lynn Gilbert, a massive contributor to 20th-century portrait photography — her photos of sculptor Louise Nevelson became the face of the Venice Biennale in 2022 — whose 1981 book of photos and essays, ‘Particular Passions,’ became a significant document of second-wave feminism. Lynn, with virtually no professional portfolio at the time…

It’s part two of our conversation with Lach, who oversaw, curated and cared for The Fort, a little stage at the back of a bar that made an outsize impact on New York and the world in the 1990s and 2000s, fostering and keeping alive the flame of anti-folk and helping launch the careers of luminaries. Our second episode with Lach goes deeper into his…

Please welcome the legendary Lach to your ears. Lower East Side/Edinburgh artist and producer and presenter, novelist, BBC radio host — you name it, he's probably done it. We go super deep into the history of anti-folk in NYC and the world, but that's just the surface of the thing. Memory, dreams, visions, heartbreak and triumph, life and death, lo…

I get to take you into the studio with painter Annie Leist, where she is creating, crafting, coaxing, and evolving.

*LINK TO VIEW SLIDES REFERENCED* The recording of the presentation of the new report from Our Scottish Future.

Sam Shaber is in the middle of a resurrection. For years, if you found Sam’s work, you found it via storytelling or her podcast focusing on in-vitro fertilization and women’s health and just and accurate information and access to both. Or you knew her power-pop-punk bands. These were the points of contact. This week we pick up the story, the rest o…

Sam Shaber is back with the very songs she shelved after those years in the early 2000s, back with ‘Eighty Numbered Streets.’ She’s about to take the album on the road for the first time in decades, playing it front to back in Los Angeles, New York, and elsewhere — and soon she’ll reunite with Shawn Mullins for a concert in Georgia. It’s a critical…

This is the story of how, for me, in August 1990, the movie ‘Pump Up the Volume’ changed everything. I watched the film. I came out utterly changed. This is the story of what happened next. If you’re listening to this show, that proves what I have to tell you is true.על ידי James O'Brien

It’s a very great pleasure to bring you new music from Hamell on Trial. He’s our first check-in this week on the show, chatting about a new album, pop music, Tyler the Creator, and what’s next from beside his courtyard swimming pool in Austin. Also, Chef Camille Rodriguez is back from from a chef’s trip to Italy, and this week we hear a bit about w…

The suicide machine is on; the suicide machine is turning. I know its sound, the sound of its engine: I grew up in a suicide city. I was ten, eleven, and twelve, in a place named Leominster, in Massachusetts, where the suicide machine ran strong between 1984 and 1986. This is the story of what happened back then, and it is potentially the start of …

This week’s feature is a Bob Dylan story, the true story of a song and how it came to be, and what it tells us is something important about holding onto things, about keeping them safe, so that we can open little windows like this into a world that might seem far away, but it’s never that far, really, if we have a recording and some electricity to …

In 1998, the staff at a little folk club in Harvard Square had a problem. The issue was Labor Day. Audiences went to the beach and the family cookout. Few came to the cool, dark room just beneath Palmer Street in Cambridge, Massachusetts. To solve this problem, this attendance challenge, the staff tried something new. They threw a festival. They ca…

One of the pleasures of being alive in the company of artists that you admire (and love) is that they make new art. Today, it’s a new album from Jim Infantino, a songwriter who’s been on with us before, all the way back in Season One, and it’s not only a new recording of songs, but it’s a big swing and dramatic departure. These are a few of my favo…

The time to think and say something about Sinead O’Connor — who is, not was but is, vastly important to me — that time is now. I’ve been thinking about Sinead, especially these past several weeks, for reasons we all almost certainly understand. And so, today, an essay focusing on an album and a night I spent painting and what there is to know about…

One night in the late 1990s I walked up to a big black door under a tattered green awning, and I walked through that door, and I was in a room. I was at a crossroads. I was a kid with a guitar, and I was about to meet a man named Geoff Bartley. I’ve seldom respected an artist and a host and a curator of a room the way I respect Geoff. He’s our gues…

Please meet Timothy Mason. There is probably no one more consequential in terms of my awakening artist’s mind in the 1990s. There was no early room in which I discovered or started to practice art that was not either produced by Tim or for which he was not in some way materially responsible. Nothing that followed would have played out the same way.…

Back in the early 2010s, I met a man named Rafat Ali, who’d just co-founded an online travel news company called Skift, and he gave me an assignment. And that changed everything. In my journey, Rafat has unlocked incredible next steps and new chapters, but we’ve never really talked to each other about his journey, the whole thing, from India to Ind…

Some songs and their writers get to you by degrees. Some creep up on your consciousness, a verse here, a chorus there. Others land on your world in a song. That’s all it takes. It’s not a lot, and then it’s everything. In this episode, songwriter Randy Kaplan and I talk about the moment his song “Slow Eater” landed in my world, and then we unpack a…

Some songwriters, they yearn for a mantle — they strive for the political mark. David Rovics’ songs move musically in the way of the great protesters, singers and poets — the Seegers and the Guthries, Baez, early Dylan, the Anne Feenies and the Alix Olson. I’ve finally had a chance to talk with David. What I discovered, and what fills the next two …

In the fall of 2002, I turned on a four-track and demo-ed the album I intended to record as a follow-up to my record 'Life Underwater.' A lot of things changed after that.
