"The people I met, who were otherwise good people, you know, who were still saying about that unpleasantness that had happened there. And all those people, if they hadn't come here, and they didn't mean the people with the tiki torches, they meant the people protesting. Those people. Right. I mean, I think being in the south certainly maybe around it in a more explicit way, but with the news and social media, it's not you don't have to look far in a matter where you live to see the to see the racism or the even the fascism. And so yeah, I think the south has that history and that aspect to it still today, but it's really everywhere. Well, and you guys haven't been shy. I mean, your social media, I will see political statements occasionally or something outrageous happens. And there will be a comment. And not our many artists, not all artists are certainly feeling that they should comment on those kind of things. They feel like it could be a career. Ending move, if I speak out, Jason is both getting a ton of negative feedback from his audience for certain things. He can handle it. Tough guy. He's handling it. So clearly that you don't feel that you don't feel that artist should stay out of that. Those kind of issues. No, because it's all very personal to me and to us, I think, in terms of the band is personal. And so are the things that were the political things that are happening or they affect people. They're not just abstract policy decisions. Yeah. Yeah. Kids in Texas are being slaughtered. Yeah. Because people want to play with their machine gun toys. On that cheery note. You were going to dig into the catalog for an older one. We're going to do a song from it feels like an old song. It's from this century, however. This song is called learning to surf.

"Thank you. Ryan loneliness, title track of the 12th superchunk album. We have Mac McConnell and Jim wilber, John Worcester and Jason, nor doocy. So Matt, the irony of recording isolated coming together with Jim and John only an occasion, zooming with Laura. Still there are guests on this album. There are strings. There are Mike Mills, The Godfather of southern jangle, right? Two of the teenage fan club boys. How was that made more difficult? Well, I mean, that part was actually made easier, I guess. You could say, thanks to modern technology and the Internet, which I think has ruined a lot of things, but has made collaborating more possible with people that we never would have had singing on our record otherwise. And like we were talking about earlier, so many people have home recording setups or they got them during the pandemic, Tracy and Campbell from camera obscura sings on a song and that was the first thing she'd ever recorded at home. She had gotten a setup urged by her manager, I think, so she could make demos and things like that, but she hadn't actually recorded anything yet. So people are at home able to record and again, not wanting this record to feel like a small boxed in lockdown thing. I think having other people's voices on it, just makes it better and makes the songs more interesting and gives them a different angle and certainly more fun for us to have other people on our record. So it's good. Teenage fan club always makes harmony sound better, right? Always, yeah, they should just follow everybody around and sing behind them. I just wanted to follow up on that because you guys have a long history with them. Teenage fan club, right? I mean, you guys weren't the same label at the start of your careers and stuff. And we were and we toured with them early on, I think on the bandwagon esque tour was our first dates with them, and then we did some shows with them. In the UK on a couple records after that. And yeah, so we've known them for a long time, and merge has been putting out their records for a while now. And so we had contact with them and everything, of course. And when we recorded endless summer from this record, it just seemed like a song that needed harmonies and when I think of great harmonies, they're definitely one of the band's eye on the bands I think of. That's definitely a song in their Wheelhouse. I know you're going to play it because I heard you sound checking with it. I love that. A lot of people are saying, okay, this is super chunks, happy, celebratory record after what a time to be alive, which was your angriest record ever. And yet, you know, I don't mean to be a bummer. You sing in endless summer. You know, how the world is frying up and we're all gonna die. Yeah, I don't think I don't think it's like the happiest record when you listen to the words, but I think that balancing the words out with the music, something that we try to do because I feel like people might be okay with dark lyrics from us, but they're probably us doing dark lyrics and sort of like dark music work out well. Well, this is one of the classic approaches to all great pop, right? To have these uplifting melodies and these somber themes. Or these somber melodies with lyrics of hope. Sure. And we are not Nick Cave. So I think it's hard to pull off both all the darkness all the time and I don't think that we're the people for that job. I gotta say, Owen palette, the strings on this record. I mean, I know you've had strings before, I think, right? I mean, you've done that. But I was blown away that first song, the string arrangement on that. So did you just write the song and say, this is going to need some strings on it? Who do I call? Well, I mentioned acoustic foolish earlier when we rerecorded our foolish album acoustically in the studio and Owen, we got Owen to do strings on a couple songs on that record. And I've known own for a long time. He's an amazing player, but also writes beautiful arrangements. And so he did an awesome job on the foolish record and so I knew that he would be great on a couple of these songs and city of the dead, which is the first song on the record. I felt like it needed strings. It's kind of a dramatic song and I felt like the strings would be perfect there. And there's also a lot of space in the song for strings to kind of come in and out and for you to really hear them. And yes, he made a beautiful arrangement. Yeah in the city of the dead. We make the world when the old one died. Well, you're gonna play in with summer.

"Not to do that. Look at the country. Those records are really, really strong. I just melt in his hands. His middle age crazy trying to prove he's still can and then finally, Jim, did you ever see him live? I never saw him live and neither of us ever had the opportunity to interview it. Well, like I was telling it saying earlier, I was scared. That was a guy that truly terrified. Do I really want to talk to you? Is he going to pull the switch away? Here he comes, so he's doing a show in the early 90s that I happen to see at the cubby bear, which is club across the street from the Wrigley Field in Chicago. And for a time, they had a bunch of great shows there. And Jerry Lee's touring with James Burton, the great guitar player in his band. It was a really, really good band. They had a grand piano on stage, which wasn't always the case when Jerry Lee was touring. And he was going to haul the grand people. So you had to have one on the premises. They had one. He's right up front. He's got the rolled up sleeves. He's got the tattoos. I'm going. This guy's still terrifying. Yeah. And it was a great great show. Great show. The guy just kind of blew my head off. How good he was. I did see Chuck Berry, you know, in later years, 90s. And it was often going through his phoning it in. And unfortunately, I did have I was so geeked about that show that when Jerry Lee came back in a town a few years later, I wanted to go see him again. I got to see this. It was so great. The first time. And the second time they had this like little electric piano up there. You know? And it wasn't the same. It's not the same. And he looked constrained by it. Like he wasn't having any fun. Either. So it was kind of a bummer, but man, you know, that towering personality, whatever you think of him, he just sort of, you know, he was a huge shadow over that whole scene for so long. Well, you know, there is that biopic out there. And it's the same problem I have with the Richie valens biopic, the Buddy Holly biopic. The artists of the 50s get sanitized in a sort of grease, happy days. And we forget that they were scary, that they were challenging American norms. There was a lot of black influence in what Jerry Lee was doing. And it was covering black or artist songs covering black artist songs. And that was threatening to mainstream America from day one, you know, rock and roll was a blow against the status quo. And that's why they were congressional hearings about it. That's why it was getting banned in many cities. And I think rock history always does a disservice when we forget that electric thrill. And it's very hard to forget which Jerry Lee Lewis. Yeah, it's very hard to forget and not only a protean piano player, I mean that boogie, the country influence combining those influences. But the thing about the vocal style was that it was intense, but also casual and conversational. Yeah. And that's a hard trick to pull off. He didn't seem like he was trying to impress you. It was just like, I am so cocky and confident in this moment that I don't have to try. I don't have to be an opera singer, but I can be myself. And that's why that's what comes through in hellfire. Again, Nick tosh's book, you know, he often spoke about how he was channeling something. And he thought it was perhaps from a place of evil. That's why he was scared. But he was a conduit, a vessel for some demon. I can't help it. I can't help myself. I'm possessed. And you see that footage and he was. And so an era passes. We're not going to have to bury any of the other 50s innovators, Jerry's gone. Well, exactly. And, you know, the whole idea, you know, when talk about rock and roll, the role being very important. I think he's really the last of that of that breed. I mean, that first era, you know, there's not a sound now. Well authentically. It's always second or third hand now. When I teach what happened at chess records to my first year of college students, you know, they're completely to them rock and roll is an antiquated term. It was a euphemism for sex. Yeah. You know, and Jerry was sexual. So that's what we have to say about Jerry Lee Lewis, and now we want to hear from you.

"Kott has a pianist yourself. I've always been curious about why, with those central figures, Fats Domino, Little Richard and Jerry Lee Lewis. Making the piano not a static instrument, a true rock and roll. You can't move like you could Chuck Berry doing the duck walk with the guitar. Why do you think the piano went into eclipse with notable exception like Elton John or whatever, but I think it's simple. I mean, first of all, the guitar sounded great. But secondly, is the portability. I mean, dragon a grand piano around the country is no fun. And I gotta tell you anything less than like a grand, you know, when you're a piano player, diminishes what you're trying to produce with that instrument, the sound, the tonal colors, the palette. So it would have been difficult. It would have been difficult to tour do 200 dates with a grand piano in your van. You couldn't do it, you know? And so the guitar, I think the portability of the guitar made it the instrument of choice. But that star club show. What was the famous line? It wasn't a concert, it was a crime scene. You know, I mean, it was like, you listen to that recording now and it just pops, you know, out of the speakers. You know, rock and roll, The Rock and rollers by the late 60s, they were done. They didn't really have a career anymore. They had been eclipsed by, it was no longer rock and roll. It was rock music. It was already. Well, sergeant pepper is it gets important. It has to be thematic. It has to be thought of as capital AR. Right. But Lewis is such a great singer in such a huge personality that he reinvents himself as a country singer, and it should be meant not that it was he had to really reinvent because it was always part of it. But he very naturally fit into that scene. The one thing that Jerry was not a songwriter. But his ability to take any song that he sung and make it his own, he would personalize it. There would be immediate personal stamp to the point where he would reference himself. And so go ahead, Jerry Lee. But he would own the songs in a way that was just stunning. And essentially had a great run of great records in the 70s that maybe people overlook when they think about Jerry Lee Lewis career. But I advise

"Opinions, and this week we have super junk performing live at the goose island tap room. I'm Jim D regattas. And I'm Greg kott, but first, we've got a pay tribute to the recently deceased Jerry Lee Lewis. And you'd rather my brain too much love drives a man insane. You broke my wheel, but what a three and a necessarily great ball of fire. We need to pay tribute to Jerry Lee Lewis, one of the architects of rock and roll. The last of the great 50s innovator, the innovators, last man standing from that era, 87 years old, inevitable, we all have to go sometime, but Jerry Lee in so many ways seemed indestructible. For sure. Him and survived everything, you know? You know, and everybody knows about the string of hits at sun records with Sam Phillips. In Memphis in the 50s. And there's a bear family put out these box sets. And I remember buying that box set when I was younger, just to sort of learn about the guy and they had a lot of interstitial material there, you know, what was the dialog like between Jerry Lee and Sam Phillips in the studio when he's recording great balls of fire, for example. That Pentecostal background juxtaposed with him performing the so called devil's music. Right. It was a conflict throughout his entire life and he verbalized it as he was recording great balls of fire in this Otis Blackwell song. He thought, you know, this is the devil's music. I am surely going to go to hell for recording this song. That's right. It says it says make matter with a Doyle go. Only. But when it comes to world in music, rock and roll it out. You have no talk to yourself to the world, and you're in the world, and you hadn't come out of the world, and you're still a center. But I'm going to go ahead and do it anyway. And I'm going to go rocking. Well, he was still conflicted. You found a 2015 interview where you still worried about going to hell? Yeah. Right. I mean, the guy was there. His entire life. And he came from a super religious family upbringing. You know, Jimmy swaggart was his cousin. It was his cousin. One was the preacher and one was the rocker. You know, look, there was no better rock biography on the bookshelves than Nick tosh's immortal hellfire. And it captures those conflicts. It captures what was magical about Lewis, and it captures the conflict between heaven and hell, the two forces pulling at him, captures the relationship with Jimmy swaggart. It must be said and should be said right up top. You know, a controversial figure, not just because he was so free spirited and wild and crazy, and sexualized. You know, at a time when that was scaring the parents of America. This was, he was not the only one worried about it being the devil's music. But also because infamously, 1958, he marries his second cousin, Myra Gale, Brown. And, you know, I found an interview. I was writing for The New Yorker covering the R. Kelly trial in Brooklyn. In 2014, Myra Gale said, that relationship going public made her then husband's career, quote, take a nosedive right into the concrete. You know, he paid a price being derailed as a rock superstar for that relationship, and it was a troubled relationship physical and mental abuse it did not last. But here was R. Kelly, a woman that he victimized saying on the stand that Kelly was saying, look at Jerry Lee Lewis. He was a genius. I'm a genius. We should be allowed to do what we want. It's interesting to me that in the late 50s people were calling stars bad behavior way before the me too movement into question. And then it goes on snooze. And people let far too many people in the limelight get away with far too much for too long. Yeah, that is something that a lot of these things come to light later on in retrospect, but it did in fact have a huge impact at the time. On Lewis career. And in fact, all the 50s rock and rollers were involved in some kind of issue where they disappeared for a few years because of various issues. You know, Chuck Berry had the criminal charges violations of the man act. Lewis said the marriage, you know? Little Richard went gospel, you know? Found God. And Elvis went to the army. Lewis come back, so to speak, was this record this live at the star club record in 1964, Hamburg, West Germany, with the same spot where The Beatles, those crowds. American seamen out for a great night on the town while they were in port. And Germans who were rabid about this rock and rolls about rock and roll. And the thing, if you'd ever seen film footage of Lewis in his 50s heyday, between the hair just completely unkempt flying in front of his face. Sweat everywhere. And pounding the piano with a ferocity that thing's going to break. I haven't seen that sort of intensity around the piano other than maybe Cecil Taylor in a free jazz environment. The piano was central to rock and roll in the 50s domino. You had little Richard, Little Richard. And then Jerry Lee, though, took it to a whole nother level with that sort of, you know, talk about demon energy. That's what he brought in that star club show really highlighted that because basically he performed a set of music that was from his 50s heyday. We performed many of those songs. But inversions that are raw beyond belief.

Farewell to the Late, Great, And Scandalous Jerry Lee Lewis
"Jerry Lee Lewis, who died not too long ago. Was known as the killer. And that wasn't just a casual nickname, a schoolmate called him that after he tried to strangle a teacher, he also once shot his base player in the chest just about all his 7 wives, including one who was a child, said he beat them, and there's a strong suspicion that he murdered wife number 5. Jerry Lee Lewis was the very model of a high functioning sociopath and someone defied hard living, drug and alcohol abuse and a bunch of serious health problems, but he still made it well into his 9th decade. It was a pianist. He was a singer, he was a showman, he was also one of the three or four people who decisively ushered in The Rock and roll era, and utterly personified an unbridled and dangerous part of the music. He died at 87 years old and not for nothing after the death of Little Richard back in 2020, he was the last man standing from the dawn of rock and roll.

Bloomberg economics expects the RBA to hike rights by 25 basis points and that's despite stronger than expected inflation data in the third quarter. It's also the same size as the hike that we got back in October, which was a little smaller than the market was expecting. Prior to that, the RBA had increased rates by 250 basis points over the past 6 months. Bloomberg economics thinks the RBA will signal further hikes to come to combat inflation risks, but given that signaling so far, the next move in December could be smaller, 15 basis point increase and that would take the cash rate to a nice round number peaking at 3%.

"And that's we're at today but again it's still a lot of rumors going on about what happened with the two wives that died. Richard ben kramer is a journalist. That i got a lot of the information for this episode about he. His rolling stone article really highly insinuates. That lewis had something to do with the death of his wives and that he absolutely had something to do with the destruction of the lives of many of his ex wives that were still alive. It's very sad. And he just seems like one of those guys that he's just so not under under the rate he's on the radar but we miss a lot of this activity because it's been so long and because it just feels like his whole musical persona is an static. I don't know the movie. Great balls of fire. I think really brought him back to public consciousness from what i remember watching movies and played dennis. Quaid we're talking about dennis quaid also dates. Yeah much younger. Which i thought was interesting kind of take. But y- i think the thing of jerry lee lewis. I mean his the late nineteen fifties is his apex but yet is he's just a the fact that he survived so much for so long where other people haven't in the eighty s. He got most of his stomach removed. And he's like at now at eighty five. He's you can see my tiktok. It's an interesting thing that people have given him a pass because they'll always have some kind of celebration with him and he's really playing. This got us some good songs and he is definitely a pioneer exit. He's switched to country standards because the british invasion came music changed. Where does he fit in. Elvis's you know what i mean. Elvis was not in vogue in the yet to come back in sixty eight and and everything like that. So musically people like. I don't wanna hear rocker. Bob change we want to hear something more aggressive and then obviously music has changed a lot but people have given him a huge pass and he never mind. Never mind just dating. You're very young cousin there. That is definitely the one thing to remember. But the fact is is that he is just not a good person to a lot of people and yet we're talking about the seven wives but there's probably seven thousand other people he treated like garbage and everyone. Some people treat people. Everyone has to be nice all the time. Twenty four seven but he seems to be like a routine bad boy that people like they said people java cool whatever all part of music history all of a sudden you get total pass because all like when the stuff came to consciousness as being really bad. This is after because obviously at the time people like. She's thirteen years old. Holy shit but at the time we're really felt like humility bad and this person is an addict in their abusive. He was already old. He was like not perceived of as the same amount of threatening as he might be in his early years and in a style. Jack you're saying comes in and out of conscious.

I was known for contributing the Outlaw country movement. Who's friends with Willie once our shaver, as you said he called him the greatest living songwriter. His songs recorded by the likes of Johnny Cash. Elvis, Kris Kristofferson, Jerry Lee Lewis.

According to the national hole in one registry. Somewhere north of one hundred twenty eight thousand holes in one are registered every year. Which sounds like a lot except gulford play somewhere around four hundred and fifty million rounds of golf every year. That means a hole in one is officially registered about once every three thousand five hundred rounds around generally being considered eighteen holes, though, the United States Golf Association sometimes accepts a hole in one on a shortened round.

Listen to committed on apple podcasts the iheartradio app or wherever you get your podcasts. Welcome to brainstorm, a production of Harvey. Hey, brain stuff, Lauren Vogel bomb here. Have you ever wondered exactly what happens to the human body when it's suspended in space for extended period of time based on Hollywood, productions alone men and women who navigate the galaxy always seemed to be just fine when they land back on earth. But our astronauts so lucky in reality NASA has made it its mission to find out in a landmark DNA study published an April twenty nineteen issue of the journal science researchers from John Hopkins Stanford and other institutions revealed after a year in space astronaut, Scott Kelly, experienced, no, major long-term differences to his EPA genome compared with that of his twin brother current, Arizona. Senate candidate Mark Kelly hoop stayed firmly planted here on earth, your EPA genome is all of the chemical compounds that attached to your DNA and changed the way it functions. So no major differences, hypothetically, a good thing. Here's the deal with putting your body in space. It exposes you to harmful ultraviolet rays radiation, limited food and exercise lower gravity disrupted, sleep cycles, and an unknown number of other potential hazards. And while scientists have spent decades studying the effects of space travel on astronauts, most of these men and women have travelled on missions that max out at six months in order to travel somewhere like say Mars missions needs to be much longer. And scientists say it's critical to understand the effects that these super extended missions could have on the human body. Let's talk more about how your EPA genome works. Your DNA is your genome. It's the genetic code tells every cell in your body how to build different proteins which determines how those cells function your EPA genome is any chemical modifications to your DNA these modifications don't change your actual DNA sequence. But they can change how your cells us the instructions that your DNA gives them. So these tiny chemical alterations can have a major impact on a person's health by influencing the way their genes are expressed they can switch jeans from onto off and vice versa. A major advantage of this new research is the fact that it studies identical twins who naturally have identical genetic material. But while the study subjects offer a rare and unique glimpse into the potential for long term genetic changes in space. The researchers are quick to admit that they're tiny sample size means more testing is essential with only to study subjects. They can't be sure that any changes are due to space travel more research with other astronauts needs to be. Done. The methodology for the study involved collecting blood samples physiological data in cognitive measurements. From each Kelly twin at various points over twenty seven month period before during and after Scott's one year space mission if you're wondering how in the world or universe? Scott samples reached scientists from space they were transported via rockets. In the future. Scientists hope to process and store samples on board the international space station itself. But for the purposes of this study samples were rocketed back to earth and processed within forty eight hours. Then the research team examined to the brothers genomes looking for genetic changes, specifically focusing on two types of white blood cells and examining process called methylated, which occurs when chemical compounds called methyl groups are added onto DNA generally speaking, there were just about as many EPA genetic changes in Scott as there were in his twin. The biggest difference was observed nine months into Scott space mission. When just seventy nine percent of his DNA was methylated compared to eighty three percent of Mark's DNA the locations methylation were different in both men. Scott's Beth leash appeared near genes involved with a municipal response, which the researchers believe correlates with additional data that found that Scott had increased markers associated with inflammation, which is a potential red flag. But again bears further study to determine whether this difference was really caused by Scots location in space. Oh, though, one other weird thing that definitely did happen to Scott in space the shape of one of his eyeballs changed by the time. He got back to earth his retinal nerve and the foles in the layer that surrounds, the I thicker, researchers think this could have to do with prolonged exposure to low gravity another thing to watch out for in the future for sure.
