Other People’s Podcasts for Your Enjoyment

Welcome to the third installment of our series Other People’s Podcasts, an undertaking in which we highlight other podcasts created by Nashville creatives. While we strongly believe that We Own This Town offers a nice variety of shows but we are, by no means, the only source of entertainment and education you should have in your life! So, we’re doing our best to shine a light on other shows that are worth time in your earbuds. If you’ve got a podcast you think we should hear, contact us and we’ll check it out!

Music City Murder
Apple Podcasts | Spotify Podcasts

If there’s one genre of podcast that seems to rule the roost, it’s True Crime. Music City Murders is hosted by author T. Blake Braddy and digs into Nashville-based murders with a perspective from local context and history. Taking a quick glance at the episode list, the show gets into everything from unsolved murders to questionable hauntings. Season 3 is underway now.

Daily Dispatches from Daily Fieldwork
Spotify Podcasts

A podcast that’s part of a larger story telling project called Daily Fieldwork. The overall project tackles documenting the wonderful world of Southern culture (imagine truck stops, State Fair events, random shop ephemera), publishing zines about Trucks and dealing with Daylight Savings and pulling in a larger community of folks interested in the same. The podcast is a weekly transmission of compiled observations and events from the week. It’s part personal journey, part collaboration and entirely fascinating. There’s something quite calming and immersive about it.

28th & Jefferson
YouTube

Part of the MASS Ctv network, the 28th and Jefferson Podcast is more of a YouTube channel than podcast (many of their archives are on Spotify and Apple Podcasts but the latest episodes are only on YouTube). Hosts Patrick Morgan and Shechinah Quarles sit down to talk about Black culture in Nashville from the perspective of “entrepreneurs, activists, and artists who have made strides in pushing the culture forward.” These conversations are frank and pull no punches, giving a uniquely honest perspective on Nashville.

It Happens to Us
Spotify Podcasts

It Happens To Us is a podcast in which host Devin Noel Snyder has discusses with various guests in an effort to “normalize [discussions about] death and dying in our modern society.” As the daughter of a funeral director, Noel Snyder is in a unique position to tackle these subjects. Much like our own My Fantasy Funeral, it may feel awkward to listen in on conversations about such a thing but it’s the one inevitability in life, so might as well get comfortable.

War and Vodka Part 2: Compassion of Warsaw

In part 2 of a special series on the crisis in Ukraine, Liquid Gold checks in with new War Correspondent Matt Campbell, an American living and working in Warsaw, Poland. We hear about Matt’s journey teaching in Warsaw, and how the refugee crisis is unfolding on the ground in the city of 1.8 million. Also discussed: what they’re drinking in the cafe’s of Poland (hint: vodka), how the city has embraced their neighbors in Ukraine, and the culture of making milk spirits and other holiday libations.

Listen to Campbell’s Polish radio transmission, A Letter from Poland.

Nashville Bandcamp Friday, April 2022

If you’re new here, every time there is a Bandcamp Friday, we comb through the service to find an arrange of offerings for you to possible put your financial support behind. Purchasing music in the time of streaming ubiquity may seem like a strange thing but it’s an extremely easy way to let a band know you support them. And, as a bonus, you’ll get notified about new releases, merch deals and all sorts of insights about the band that you’d never get from a streaming service. Win Win!

If you’re an artist and wondering what the big stink is about Bandcamp, it’s worth doing a little research into how royalties are paid from streaming services. Spotify, Apple, YouTube Music and their ilk all have varying rates of payment each time a song is played on their service but they are all incredibly low. Seriously, do a tiny bit of reading and you’ll see that streaming services are a tool for discovery and awareness but not a likely source of reliable income. If you truly want to have income from your art, Bandcamp offers the best deal; giving you 85% of all sales and increasing that to 90% once you reach a sales threshold. It’s certainly a bigger commitment from a fan to pay $6-$10 for an album but the benefit is that you’d receive $8.50 from that $10 sale, a shockingly difficult number to reach purely from streaming.

Regardless, #BandcampFriday is a way for us to spotlight some artists that we think you might like. Keep up with this list or follow our tweeting if you want a bit more detail. We’ll also advise that you find your own Nashville discoveries and show your support!!

S01.E01: Hush…Hush, Sweet Charlotte

The boys review and discuss Robert Aldrich’s 1964 film Hush…Hush, Sweet Charlotte. Starring Bette Davis, Olivia de Havilland, Joseph Cotten, and Agnes Moorehead.

Funny Girl

Next on their journey through the decades, Alex and Kelsey examine Barbra Streisand’s breakout performance in 1968’s Funny Girl. For the first time ever, neither of our hosts had seen this film before, so their wide-eyed enthusiasm — especially concerning the dreamy Omar Sharif — is 100% genuine. Anachronisms abound as Alex & Kelsey discuss whether pants, beehives or winged eyeliner would have had any place in the teens and twenties, but ultimately the film navigates the treacherous byways of self-worth as Fanny comes to know for herself that she’s much more than just a Funny Girl.

Six One Tribe – “10,000 Hours” (Official Video)

There’s much to be said about Six One Tribe; a collective of hip-hop artists and a movement to push awareness of Nashville hip-hop through collaboration. Looking at the Affiliated Artists list you’ll see plenty of familiar names like Gee Slab, Negro Justice, Namir Blade, Daisha McBride, Petty, FU Stan and loads more. Other names like Mossy or Trip God F’RF’R may not strike as familiar yet but it’s only a matter of time given their involvement with this undertaking. Are all these names “members” of the collective or simply contributing? It’s not clear but it also doesn’t matter – Six One Tribe can be as nebulous as it wants to be as long as they continue their mission to showcase Nashville hip-hop and push to raise the awareness.

A few months back they released “10,000 Hours,” the first single for a forthcoming full-length. This week they released the accompanying official video. The track itself is a euphoric blast of trumpets, hard hitting beats and contributions from Negro Justice, Corduroy Clemens, Weston, Riø Tokyo & Namir Blade. It’s hard to listen to and not feel hyped up. The video carries that energy with some very simple outdoor performances cut together excellently with individual performances acting as “introducing” segments for each emcee. It’s not high concept but it’s high energy and that’s absolutely the point.

Word on the street is that there will be plenty of new Six One Tribe releases in the coming months with lots of different contributors. This first video is a solid bar to set in the expectations department.

Shots! Margarita

The Liquid Gold crew finally tackles one of the most important and delicious drinks in the canon: the Margarita! Cocktail Correspondent Jessica Backhus comes back on the show to discuss her favorite Margarita recipe and some tricks for making delicious spicy margs. Hosts Mike and Kenneth share Margaritas from El Fuego in Nashville and discuss the murky history of the cocktail classic, along with some tips for using lime juice in your cocktails.

Also discussed: secrets of the Paloma, the Pomegranate’s importance in the Margarita story, and is Tequila just motor oil for humans? A bonus booze news covers Guy Fieri’s new flavor palace in Tennessee, along with some news about Cedric the Entertainer.
