Conspiracy Theories w/ Chris Dock (Raw Paw) Oct 08, 2019

Show notes

We're warping back into the Austin City Limits for this pod with Chris Dock, founder of Raw Paw, an Austin art collective that has been doing its thing for 5+ years. And I say "thing" intentionally because Raw Paw has been great at pushing things forward — welcoming comedy, music, visuals, and much more under their event/maker umbrella. But Raw Paw's throughline isn't exclusivity, it's actually pretty open and fun. Chris was a co-founder of Raw Paw, and is working hard at their custom merch and screenprinting studio while also writing sci-fi. He's actually a nice dude, too, which makes total sense why the Raw Paw brand is so inviting. I met Chris at a clothing bazaar and invited him to come chat about how a "collective" happens, fiction writing, Smash Mouth, and his wildest conspiracy theories. Come, sit, and let's go to the outer limits.

Seeing The Light w/ Photographer Kevin Cummins Sep 26, 2019

Show notes

Beyond thrilled to welcome one of the most iconic music photographers in the world, Kevin Cummins. Kevin put the Manchester music scene on the map, capturing bands like the Buzzcocks, Joy Division, New Order, and The Smiths. As the head photographer at NME for over 25 years, Kevin created an era for Manchester, blending his signature black and white shots with niche locations throughout the city. Over the last decade, his work has been featured in the National Portrait Gallery in London, the V&A Museum, and he’s released several incredible books, including “Manchester: Looking for the Light through the Pouring Rain”. Kevin also recently collaborated with Noah NYC on a t-shirt line! We talked about his commute all over the UK to hit a deadline, seeing Madonna perform in front of 15 people, and why he and Ian Astbury got arrested in Texas. Huge thanks to Steve at Modern Rocks Gallery in Austin TX, who is curating an opening for Kevin Cummins on 9/28 called “But I remember When We Were Young”. The exhibit runs 9/28-11/2.

Take This Job And Luv It w/ Tim League (Alamo Drafthouse) Sep 11, 2019

Show notes

POD. ON. FIRE. And we are hot this week with none other than Tim League, founder of Alamo Drafthouse - the coolest movie theater and all-around film culture hub. I got to chat with Tim about his first job at SHELL OIL and his segue into a small theater/live music venue in Bakersfield, California. Warning: Tim has stories about Korn, and Fugazi. But enuff of that Adidas dreadlock stuff, it was thrilling to hear Tim’s insights on the dynamic with his wife/co-founder, Karrie, and how he still listens to his audience to make every bit of the Alamo experience awesome. Tim, don't quit your day job. We'd all be f-ed. Check out the video highlights here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=STeoxEl0lr4
