🎵 Listened to a 🎙️podcast featuring Simon Armitage. I did not know he had a band. … LYR. During the podcast there was discussion about why the band is not called ‘Land Yacht Regatta’ - and if not that - why not L.Y.R. ?
He wasn’t really sure - Label decisions he said … but I think I know.
L.Y.R. - not my cup of tea at all - that I jumped over to listen to is definitely a very different band to LYR - a band that is very much my cup of tea.
🎙️ A Few Thoughts About RFK Jr.
Sam Harris doing his thing and a spot on 15 minute analysis of why RFK won’t be on his show anytime soon.
I wish Petersen, Rogan, Marr et al gave as much thought to the guests on their shows. Of course, there is a consistency to the places he has appeared.
🎛️ How will YOU be remembered?
I have been struggling with a newsletter recently. Unlike the podcast - it isn’t about suicide, but rather - how people are remembered after death. (If you know the movie Coco - it relates. If you think about tombstones - it relates.) The 30 second clip gets to the nub.
The Full Podcast:
🎛️ UC Berkeley’s Hany Farid: “With AI, we’re making the same mistakes that we did with social media”
A good listen … if these 30 seconds don’t inspire you to listen to the rest … well … then don’t.
The Full Podcast: 🎙️ Danny In The Valley
Anybody trying out the 🎙️Goodpods app?
Rob Long in his usual fast (10 minutes) and effective way nails it. This time it’s about the problems of The Entertainment Industry.
🎙️Josh Toplosky in conversation with Mark Gurman
Have to say a couple of things in here made me sit up and think … “oh maybe I will watch WWDC”.
🎙️Ezra Klein talking to Fareed Zakaria
… so good.
… and that is just the start.
