  • Introducing: A Most Audacious Heist - Shoot For The Moon | 01

    Introducing: A Most Audacious Heist - Shoot For The Moon | 01
    Feb 15 2025
    It’s a summer night in 1998. Vienna, Austria. And petty thief Daniel Blanchard is about to carry out the heist of a lifetime. Stealing a crown jewel. The last remaining diamond Sisi Star. His plan? A daring night-time parachute jump. Daniel is no ordinary thief. His heists are ingenious, meticulously planned; his escapes from the law defy belief. And Daniel knows that if he can get his hands on the star, it will launch him into the criminal big-leagues. Daniel’s exploits unleash a relentless game of cat-and-mouse, as police track him across continents yet vanishes from their grasp. What he doesn’t know is that the Sisi Star has a history. A dark history. Its original owner, the legendary Empress Elisabeth of Austria, used it to carve her own legacy of absolute beauty and power. That pursuit drove her to her very limits. And now Daniel’s fate is fixed to that same star. But how long can Sisi’s star stay lucky for Daniel? This is A Most Audacious Heist – it’s the story of a master thief, an intercontinental manhunt, and the jewel that changes everything.

  • The 100 Greatest Rock Moments of the Millennium So Far - Part 4: (70-61)

    The 100 Greatest Rock Moments of the Millennium So Far - Part 4: (70-61)
    Feb 12 2025
    Time has a way of getting away from us, especially at the speed at which news cycles travel…with a firehose of information coming at us from traditional media, online sources, social media, and just life in general, it’s really easy to forget where we’ve been and what we’ve done. The speed of 21st century life has either created our ultra-short attention spans or exacerbated what was already there. Me?... Sometimes it feels like I have the memory of a goldfish…somebody will mention something that happened and I’ll go, “oh, yeah…that happened a couple of years ago”…and then they’ll say, “no, that was 21 years ago”. It’s been so long since the 90s that the music of that era is number one for nostalgia, eclipsing the public’s fascination with the 80s, the 70s, and the 60s…people who weren’t alive in the 90s have latched on to that music in a very fierce way. Maybe that’s why to older folk the rock from that time still seems fresh and top-of-mind—because to a substantial number of young music fans, it’s fresh and top-of-mind for them…I find it fascinating when a young generation embraces music from an older generation as their own. But time is an arrow that points only one way…we don’t know where we’re going, but we do know where we’ve been…and that’s where history comes in…remembering and analyzing the past helps understand where we are today and where we might possibly end up tomorrow. That’s the point of this series of “ongoing history” programs…what has happened with music in the last 25 years?... And can we use any of this history to predict the future? This is chapter four of “the 100 greatest moments in rock of the millennium—so far”. Songs in this episode: Final Fantasy - He Poos Clouds Twenty One Pilots - Stressed Out Rage Against The Machine - Renegades of Funk Walk Off The Earth - Somebody I Used To Know Metallica - St. Anger Frank Turner - Girl From The Record Shop Nickelback - Rockstar Coldplay - Talk Muse - Uprising Learn more about your ad choices.

  • The 100 Greatest Rock Moments of the Millennium So Far - Part 3: (80-71)

    The 100 Greatest Rock Moments of the Millennium So Far - Part 3: (80-71)
    Feb 5 2025
    The great 20th century philosopher Ferris Bueller once said “life moves pretty fast…if you don’t stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it”. I think of this wisdom a lot, especially when someone starts talking about, say, the music of the 1990s…my instinctive reaction is always the same… “yeah…the 90s…that was ten years ago, right?”. Obviously not…Nirvana’s “Nevermind” still lives and that record is over 30 years old…all the legendary grunge artists are in their 50s and 60s if not dead…but so much of the music of the era is always in the air so it’s not like it ever had a chance to be forgotten. I was in an airport recently—a big public space serving people of all ages and all backgrounds from around the world—and “Man in a Box” from Alice in Chains was playing on the p.a. And then there are all those moments in the grocery store when I hear music playing and think to myself “when did supermarket music get so cool?”. The truth is that this music is a lot older than my brain wants to believe…even though it still sounds fresh, so much has happened since those records came out. Life does move pretty fast…and it seems that it’s moving faster with each passing day…and yeah, we do need to stop and looking around once in while because, let’s face it, we’re missing a lot of stuff. Now that we’re 25 years deep into the 21st century, I feel the need to look around a lot more, if for no other reason, to remember and keep track of everything that we’ve seen in music…what have we missed?...what have we forgotten?...and if we’re not acquainted with how we got here, how can we possibly be ready for what might be coming next. This is episode 3 of a series I call “the 100 greatest rock moments of the millennium so far”…let’s see how many of these things you remember. Songs in this episode: Radiohead - Creep Tool - Tempest Imagine Dragons - Radioactive The Killers - Mr. Brightside Pantera - Walk Foo Fighters - Something From Nothing Nine Inch Nails - 34 Ghosts IV Sinead O'Connor - The Last Day of Our Acquaintance U2 - Even Better Than The Real Thing (live) Learn more about your ad choices.

Great!

I am such a big fan of this podcast. Alan Cross knows every thing about music and the music world. One thing that could be better is less well disturbing things
