"We'll hear comments from our listeners and some buried treasures picks from our staff. I'm Jim D regattas. And I'm Greg Khan and of course Jim you and I are going to share our own batch of buried treasures. Great music flying under the mainstream radar. Oh yeah. You know, we always like to say how we choose these treasures, Greg. Emails from listeners, emails from folks. We know recommendations from friends reading nonstop about music and publicists telling us, hey, this might be up your alley. So I'm excited to dive in, are you? Absolutely. It's always fun to do this, Jim, because there's so much music out there that we don't feel gets enough recognition. We only have so many slots for reviews every month, you know? So this gives us a bunch of bonus picks, so to speak. Yeah, and many of these records may not be reviewed by other places. I'm going to start with one that deserves to be widely heard. Say she she, a song called pink roses. This is a Brooklyn disco pop trio. And they are devoted to the sounds of Studio 54, circa the mid 70s. I think they captured that vibe really well. Aside from the bands that were there, I think they do it as well as anybody since, including delight. Remember delight. Oh yeah. I remember that. You know, the celebratory sound of disco, which was also a protest music. Let's never forget. The name say she is a nod to Nile Rodgers, chic. Say Sheik say she I love that. We've got the harmonies. We've got the hooks. We've got the uptempo grooves. We've got former members of the DApp kings and the extraordinaires contributing. I gather that when, say she plays live, they are a 7 piece band, but the three women at the core have made a new record and I love it. The debut album is called prism. This is a single from it called pink roses, say she she on sound opinions. The night I wanna touch the sky you might be out of time right now I need you all around my feet up on the ground following the sound do you know we. Are ever right pink roses say she great.

"Academic discourse, we are no longer academics. But even given all of that, what I see is this cancel culture notion, lumping things from criticism to murder into the same basket and then proclaiming it a threat to the American way of life. That is why I resist this phrase. I guess if I were to somehow justify the term, I would cite the idea of free speech. And people silencing themselves on purpose. But it can be argued that this is the freest time for speech that we've ever had. Yeah. So it's just different things that are at this moment, particularly explosive. I would agree with that. My main issue is just the lack of academic discourse. We can't ask questions anymore. It's called trolling now. If you ask a question after a panel presentation at a conference, for example, anything other than some variation of how can I be more like you is seen as threatening? It's not academia anymore. It's more like a church. You can't stand up in church and say, pastor, I don't agree, we are interpretation of John three 16 frowned upon to say the least. Now academia is like that, becoming like that anyway. I think it's detrimental to the very people is trying to help. Specifically, black and indigenous people of color. The concept of antiracist pedagogy is fine. I like that. I think I do it. But when it becomes this finalization of students of color, I don't like that. I'm not arguing against agitating for all ideas to be heard. I'm arguing against the notion of a cancel culture. That is the thing that concerns me as somebody who looks at how the national narrative shapes and reshapes itself. Call it what you want. The label is less important than the actuality of it. What it implies about our ability to communicate as a society. Those are my issues. I'm focused on academia. Thank you very much. Thank you. Eric Smith is an associate Professor of rhetoric and composition at the York college of Pennsylvania. So quote cancel culture now possesses a fantastically murky definition on and offline. But its predecessors, the phrases call out culture and being canceled, have long been well defined terms within the black community. In fact, that's what started to bother Washington Post features writer Clyde mcgrady. Many words leak from black culture into the mainstream. But what he saw with cancellation was a phrase being turned on its creator. So he decided to go back to the beginning. And what he found wasn't political hyperbole or social anxiety or cultural reckoning. Instead, just a man, music impresario Nile Rodgers, and a bad date and some disco. He was out on a date with a woman who was being a bit rude to the people at the club where they were. There were some people sitting down at a table that he wanted. And she said, you know, why don't you make these people get up? And he's a guy with pretty humble beginnings, so he was a bit put off by that. He was like, you know, that's not how I roll. Sometimes later, he's also obsessed with television. He says it's all on 24/7 at his house. So he is sitting around thinking about this date and then the lyrics start coming to him. Unsuccessful television shows tend to be canceled. That's the language TV executives use. Like we're canceling the.

How does that distorts your view of the market that there's just so much money out there? Well, I mean, clearly a lot of it's gone into various markets, whether it's equities or all this crypto stuff or what have you? I mean, people. Aggregate have got more money than they've ever had before. If you look at that, well, if you look at income if you look at, you know, savings rates. Yeah. I mean, people are Suitable wash with cash.

No, Maybe that's just The regional Fed presidents having their say that for the brain trust of the board of Governors Isn't ready to do so They're still waiting on this development in labor market outcomes. Uh, you know to justify it. But in so far the number of states are ending emergency benefits in the next month or two. We could really see some big numbers come out in sort of the July and August employment days. So what are the key things that you believe the Fed is are looking at, as they think about thinking about it and all that kind of stuff. Well, I mean, the obvious one is the draw down and unemployment. Powell. I decided it on a few cases. There's still some 88 million people. Unemployed people in there were A to pre crisis peak, so they're gonna want to see that number you rode. My guests is that we need to see Kind of another four million jobs added, uh, before before they were willing to start tapering.

Certainly this particular I guess commodity we're gonna call Bitcoin. It just kind of suggests that it just doesn't feel like it's matured enough for Acceptance for a lot by a lot of institutional tests. We know that more and more institutions are buying it, but it just volatility is still an issue. You go to the heart of what I was thinking over the last 24 hours on this with all the criticism. I get a lot of hate mail on this. You and Farrell get the love notes, but You know to me, the people that look at it is a gold equivalent or a currency equivalent were humbled.

"If you're not interested in that tough shit. That are interested in that. I have been trying to talk mark into starting a podcast about the music business for a couple years at this point and he just. I don't know if he thinks that people would not be interested in that but if you would like mark to host an interview podcast where he interviews. Music industry professionals about the state of the music industry. His twitter handle is music city. Mark if you like this episode. Let him know. Because that's what the whole show would be more of this. And before we get into this. I do want to start by making sure everyone understands. The kinda wack bullshit. The nile rodgers manager is bringing to the table on this. Obviously this guy has a whole spiel about how what he's doing is going to change the entire music industry blah blah blah disruption all the buzzwords that you say buzzwords tuesday. When you're like looking up ready yes and what everyone in silicon valley say oh disruption. Oh yes let's throw that in there but one part of what this guy thinks it's should change about the music industry. Is he thinks that artists managers you know the other job that he has. He thinks that artists managers should be paid in perpetuity for material that artists released during the term of their management contract. So like if. I'm your manager in the year. Twenty twenty one and you put out an album. I get my percentage of that album forever. Because that's exactly how investments worked his argument for this. Is that producers. Now get points on a song. Yes but that's because they were part of the creative process. Dude you answered the phone. I know this. Do you did it now if you did something creative in the actual creation of the songs. Sure if you okay if you become the producer you'd be coma songwriter shirt but sending emails and answering the phone. No that's your fucking job and that's what you get paid to. Do you get paid. Most managers make a ridiculous amount of money. We more often times than the band's themselves sometimes when they take fifteen percent of the gross income. Sometimes band actually make less than they're mad at personally. I think it's hilarious. That managers still get to sign deals for a percentage like. I'm probably never going to have a manager because you know what. I'm going to have a personal assistant. Who gets paid salary. Yeah especially what you do that. Why would you just hire someone and pay them a salary. Yeah because it's what's done seriously. I i know that we have some major label recording artists listening to this. You have all of the negotiating and bargaining power in this situation. Be honest here at the end of the day time a manager is just a fucking glorified personal assistant secretary. That's who they are half the time they you have lawyers lawyers get paid points because they actually can make or break your fucking career period if you make good music and people like it. Your manager could be nobody. You don't need a manager. Sure they may make your life easier. If you decide you want to have a manager and pay them accordingly. That's fine the idea that you would get paid in. Perpetuity is fucking insane. Yeah pure greed. Nothing more imagine if everyone who gets paid. A percentage started so imagine if lawyers. Did this imaginative agents did this. These are all pieces of the pie. That major label artists are slicing out. Agents get paid percentages. Lawyers get paid percentages. If everyone's like well. I mean the producer of the song gets their piece forever so like i should get my peace forever to of everything that you did while we were bats..
