end talk – the latest!

I’ve got some recent new content to share from END TALK – podcast and media newsletter!

Listen:

“How Obama Killed Indie Music” (on the shifting terrain in indie music from 2000 to the present, including the particularities of the indie sound as the genre developed and mutated post-2010)

“Ciao Bella!” (on Cuomo, the non-hero of New York AKA Emmy-award winning disgraced ex-Governor, Andrew Cuomo)

These episodes are also available on podcast streaming apps by searching “end talk.”

Read:

“Welcome to END TALK, and welcome to summer 2021, possibly the hottest summer yet experienced during mankind’s existence on planet Earth, but hardly the hottest we will experience for the remainder of our species’ tenure here. Welcome BACK TO NORMAL—today is Friday, July 16, 2021.

Back to normal… this concept was the selling point for the Biden electoral coalition, as well as the theoretical promise to be realized by ending the pandemic. Well, the pandemic has not ended, and while the administration did not achieve its goal of vaccinating 70% of Americans by the 4th of July, that’s ok!—because we have collectively decided to pretend they did.

It seems that normalcy is more a collectively-agreed-upon state of acceptance than any objective metric for measuring external reality.”

climate change and more in the hudson valley

I love the Hudson Valley, NY. Always have, always will. It is where I come from, and I am deeply connected to it.

The Hudson Valley, like the rest the country and the world, is already experiencing the effects of climate change. Read about the experiences of Hudson Valley farmers in The River.

For more on the Hudson Valley, listen to our conversation on end talk with fellow Hudson Valley native and writer Rob Rubsam, covering the region’s connection to NYC, the role of gentrification here especially during COVID, and more.

end talk: weekending in a (long) emergency

In the most recent episode of end talk we discuss gentrification, particularly in the context of COVID-19, community, and the projection of fantasy in the Hudson Valley with writer, Rob Rubsam. NYers, Hudson Valley folks, and anyone interested in these topics, I highly recommend listening.

Read Rob’s nuanced piece in The Baffler (published last April) here.

Listen to our episode here or search for it in any podcast app.
