It represents the series at its best: carefully researched historical narrative that illuminates parts of music history not represented anywhere else, and humanizes its subjects. Many, many thanks. (Glad Patreon supporter.)
Mike GrierI don’t usually relisten to podcast episodes, but I did for @500songspodcast.bsky.social recent episode on the GTOs and ‘The Captain’s Fat Theresa Shoes’.
Instead of worrying that a warning is some form of virtue signaling, I suggest grant the possibility it is issued with kindness and concern, and move on.
Mike Grier“Trigger warnings”, otherwise known as “warnings”, are acts of respect and care for listeners with sensitivity to certain topics or terms. I contend there is no objective criteria to determine when to use them, or not; instead we all just do the fucking best we can.

Andrew HickeyI think I am going to piss off *everyone* with the disclaimer at the beginning of this episode, because it's explaining why I *am* using a word beginning with "g" for Romani people.
