Pistol And The Seeds Of British Punk Rock

1h 49m · Published 02 Oct 00:00

We push and pull on "Pistol", Hulu's slick and stylized miniseries which re-imagines Steve Jones' autobiography, "Lonely Boy". "Pistol" presents one possible story of the birth and death of the Sex Pistols. We talk about the compromises inherent in telling any story, the merits of related documentaries, the truth and fiction behind "Pistol", and the impact of the Sex Pistols.

The Zen Diaries Of Garry Shandling

1h 36m · Published 25 Sep 02:00

Creative people often struggle with making art and making peace with themselves. Garry Shandling was no exception. He was a complex mix of aspiration, attachment, suffering, striving, and success. We talk about our responses to Judd Apatow's documentary "The Zen Diaries of Garry Shandling", and consider what it means for life and creativity.

Finding Work/Life Balance

1h 50m · Published 24 Sep 02:00

How much of our lives should we give to work? How much work do we need for our lives? Does work help give life meaning and shape, or does work rob life of meaning and shape? Can we find a way to make work work for us?

Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders from Mars at 50 Years

2h 5m · Published 03 Sep 00:00

50 years ago, David Bowie released "The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders from Mars", his fifth album. The one that gave him a taste of success, and that set the template for what would follow.

After all this time, what makes this record so enduring for us and everyone else? What's the worst song on it? The worst lyrics? Is it good? Is it bad?

Give me your hands! You're not alone! Join us to celebrate the Starman.

The Mystery Of Fleeting Inspiration

1h 35m · Published 30 Aug 00:00

We take the train to inspiration station. Where do we find inspiration? How do we access it, and sustain that mysterious driving force behind just about everything we do as humans? It's closer than our breath, yet evaporates in an instant if we don't stoke the creative power source. Where do we start?
