Ep 3 of Nusantara, @thedigradio.bsky.social series on history of Indonesia: from Japanese conquest of Dutch East Indies through Revolution, launched against Dutch in 1945 after Japan surrender—and quickly beset by conflict between nationalists, Islamists, communists. thedigradio.com/podcast/nusa...

Whatever your take is on the systemic issues that created the Dodgers, it’s objectively rad how their team is truly global. So many cool baseball players in one dugout. (A certain Philly-based baseball team could maybe learn something)

Philly! I'm returning to @scribevideo.bsky.social in West Philly this June to lead a short 3-session course designed to introduce participants to the skills needed to tell their own audio stories. Spread the word to the audio-interested in your life! Register here: scribe.org/storytelling...

Soundchecking at Solar Myth a couple weeks ago.

Hot of the Unruly Press!! 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 pod.link/aHR0cHM6Ly9m...

First ep of Nusantara, new Dig series on history of Indonesia. We know little about this giant place despite pivotal history of Dutch colonialism and then of nationalist, Islamist, communist revolt against it. This ep features Rianne Subijanto & Made Supriatma. Listen thedigradio.com/podcast/nusa...

New Unruly Subjects! April Lee on family policing, survival, parenting, and what real community care requires — plus a stop at Black Dragon in West Philly, and a call with Professor D Noble on Jack Harlow’s “getting Blacker” comments. Listen wherever you get podcasts. pod.link/1849696769/e...

People keep writing nice things about it. "The music moves with the grace of a natural phenomenon, shifting like light across a landscape, demanding an attentive ear while simultaneously offering a sanctuary for deep contemplation." bigtakeover.com/recordings/t...

Conrad’s curiosity about public art, the inner-workings of Philly, and the world writ large is a joy to be witness to. Excited to get to keep being there while we work on the Streets Dept Podcast together. Episodes coming very soon.

I reviewed the gorgeous, mysterious new ambient/drone/post-rock album from the Philadelphia-based duo The Early. Reminiscent of recent works by Pullman and The Necks, although Alex Lewis and Jake Nussbaum still carve out a unique sound that is truly their own. www.popmatters.com/the-early-i-...

Got on the other side of the mic and talked anti-war movement, past and present, with Dan and Salar.

“Lewis and Nussbaum have no concerns for the limits of time or the amount of experimenting and improvising they can squeeze into a session." It's true. On-point review of our new album from Chris Ingalls at @popmatters.com. www.popmatters.com/the-early-i-...

New Dig ep: Ben Mabie and Salar Mohandesi on what war on Iran tells us about US imperialism, and why US doesn’t have a massive anti-war movement even amid high anti-war public sentiment. We must make movements that can thrive and win under new conditions. thedigradio.com/podcast/anti...

Man, I wish some lefty did a five-part podcast series on the modern history of Iran: thedigradio.com/History%20of...

“The Early’s playing sounds natural and fluid, but I can also hear the communication between Nussbaum and Lewis in how they guide these tracks along. I Want to Be Ready stands out among experimental rock music thanks to the titular desire expressed and, eventually, realized by it.”

New Unruly Subjects! Ronald Young Jr. on platform, power, and how to argue in public without losing your soul. + Ms. Rachel/Rahaf from Gaza + NYU contract faculty strike update. Listen here! pod.link/1849696769/e...

It's Bandcamp Friday. Ideal day to buy The Early's new album if you've been considering it. theearly.bandcamp.com/album/i-want... "The LP’s tracks shuffle between looseness and intricacy, generally most involving when they manage to combine both at the same time.” - @thewiremagazine.bsky.social

I have this weird feeling I did something to offend all of the Gen X people in my life but I have no idea what I did.

We have a big, urgent opportunity to primary establishment Dems who make Trumpism possible through fealty to corporate power and enthusiasm for arming Israeli war machine. My interview with Geoff Simpson on @justicedemocrats.com's 2026 insurgent primary campaigns. thedigradio.com/podcast/prim...

'I Want To Be Ready suggests that post-rock’s vitality doesn’t have to lie in rapturous explosion, but rather in the tension that precedes it – suspended in an ornate half-space that resists release without ever relinquishing intensity.' The Early - I Want To Be Ready buff.ly/dc85SZy

If you’d like to understand history of the country that US and Israeli imperialists are waging an illegal and unjust war against check out @thedigradio.bsky.social five part series with Eskandar Sadeghi-Boroujerdi and Golnar Nikpour on the history of modern Iran www.thedigradio.com/History%20of...

Really generous and well-written review of our new Flat Mary Road EP in @rosyoverdrive.com. Always appreciate the close listens. rosyoverdrive.com/2026/02/16/p...

$38B for gestapo jails to divide and conquer us, instead of $38 billion for green social housing to bring us together and make us safer.

I’ve admired @chenjerai.bsky.social’s work for many years. Grateful he had me on his podcast, and that we had such an in-depth conversation about ICE flights, humanity, and real actions we can take to help our immigrant neighbors. www.patreon.com/posts/shackl...

Just moved my car for the first time in 18 days 🔥 ❄️

BREAKING on the Unruly Patreon, Chenjerai talks with Elisabeth Fay (NYU; CFU-UAW bargaining committee) about NYU’s stalled contract talks and CFU-UAW’s strike authorization vote this week—and why it matters to everyone. Patreon exclusive, but free to share. www.patreon.com/posts/patreo...

As the negotiations over DHS budget continue, please remember: the ICE detention budget alone was exploded in 2025 so it is now 62% greater than the entire Bureau of Prisons. People are not clocking what this infusion of cash to build concentration camps will do to our society.

This was such a special interview to conduct: the first in two episodes with historian Peter Linebaugh on the long histories of commons and commoning, connections between enclosures in Europe and imperial conquest abroad, and writing history from below. www.thedigradio.com/podcast/the-...

It's a Bandcamp Friday. An ideal day to pre-order The Early's new record "I Want To Be Ready": theearly.bandcamp.com/album/i-want...
