Christian is back in the Red Room for Ep. 70 of We Don't Even Know.  Shonali and Christian can't help but spread the word of the phenomenal soul r&b pop hip hop artist Lizzo after seeing her live show just a few days earlier. We quickly move from self-love to self-mutilation - you sort of could call it that - waxing is not so popular these days is it? That's the question.  Bushes are back in  - well that's what Shonali thinks. 

Shonali and Christian's first guest is writer Jamela Zahra (@ 00:12:35).  She explodes on to the podcast with an unpleasant waxing story.  Jamela grew up with MTV and always wanted to be a VJ. Her dream was to kick a blunt with Janet Jackson.  We believe that dream will come true.  Jamela has a website called HighHowAreYou.com geared to women who smoke cannabis, especially women of color.  Jamela's ultimate goal is to break down the stigma of smoking pot for black people.  After saying she herself should have her own brand of weed, she confessed she would like to have her own cookie company.  Mackenzie Besos if you're listening, we've found a good cause for you to support.    

Our second guest is Kate Willett (@00:38:37) is from the Bay Area in Cali and Shonali has flashbacks of rope sandals, unflushed toilets to when she lived in Santa Cruz, CA.  Kate just made an appearance on Stephen Colbert which we will all get to see later this summer. Do you know what makes social media enjoyable? Kate has been spending time working on art she cares about, such as a book about contemporary masculinity with the working title "Good Guys."  We can't wait to read it.  The convo moves from deep hippie state to hookup culture - the good, the bad, the ugly. Kate is and has been doing great things including touring in India, China and Australia. Kate's brand of comedy in India blows Shonali's mind.  Check out Kate's special on Netflix! 

We #GetItOffYourChest (@1:02:00) with WDEK's great friend Mike Stuto! Christian would like to have the ear of his periodontist.  Shonali explains what is supposed to happen in "the Quiet Lounge" at a spa.  Mike Stuto will not have it anymore with the pretentiousness of vinyl lovers, which means he's talking about Shonali. 

Our last guest is writer, singer, rocker Lenny Zenith, (@1:13:28) originally from NOLA and currently a long time New Yorker.  As a kid, Lenny went to school at the New Orleans Center for Creative Arts along with fellow students such as Wynton and Branford Marsalis and Harry Connick, Jr. Lenny explains that even though his music has roots in new wave and punk rock, the aforementioned jazz artists were deeply influential on him, in terms of witnessing their talent, persistence and work ethic.  Lenny is transgender and shares with WDEK an inspirational story of transitioning as a 14 year old in New Orleans.  Lenny moved to NYC ready to rock and was a member of Jenifer Convertible, Tenterhooks and RZA.  Only recently has Lenny been recording under his own name, Lenny Zenith.  Lenny sings two of his songs during this episode, including a brand new unrecorded tune and one on his latest record What If The Sun called The Wish.  

Thanks to our WDEK crew, Daria Huxley our photographer, Justin The Intern  - Justin Hall for our great intros, Ezana Million our sound engineer and Lori Schwarz our Red Room hostess and bartender! Special thanks to Lenny who sold CDs after the show with proceeds going towards trans people of color.  Thank you ALL! Follow us on all social media @wdekpodcast !  

This week, we watch the film that forced tears out of full theaters in 2015. Set mostly within a 15’x15’ room, the story smartly focuses on the relationship between mother and son, keeping the film from seeming too contained and unmoving. Also featuring the performance that landed Brie Larson the role of Captain Marvel. Room (2015), directed by Lenny Abrahamson.

In this episode via phone from Bowen Island BC, we have guest Buff Allen again. Buff is a Canadian veteran jazz drummer, who has worked with the likes of Lenny Breau, Mose Allison and winning a Juno award with The Hugh Frazer Quintet, just to name just a few. The conversation weaves all things drums, to the present state of the music industry, Jimi Hendrix and fatherhood. Very pleased to have him back on the show for a nice relaxed chat.

We at Things I Found Online Podcast are no strangers to controversy or comedians and so we are tossing them into a tasty salad with Brad Sanders and Lauri Roggenkamp. Are comedians reacting to social change or compelling it? We are talking Hannibal Buress, Bill Cosby, Dave Chappelle, Andy Kaufman, Chelsea Handler and Lenny Bruce. If it's so wrong it's right, we went there. 

Charles Skaggs & Xan Sprouse continue their Twin Peaks commentaries with "The Man Behind Glass", the third episode from Twin Peaks Season 2 in 1990, featuring the introductions of Lenny Von Dohlen as Harold Smith, Michael Parks as Jean Renault, and Ian Buchanan as Dick Tremayne!

 Vancouver's veteran jazz drummer Buff Allen speaks with Paul about playing with the likes of Mose Alison, to Mr Dressup, Lenny Breau and doing recording sessions back in the 70's and 80's. How Buff approaches gear, logistics and his concepts of time make for some great listening for both the player and non-player.

Tower of Power have been playing American R&B/Soul music with their world-renown horn section since 1968.  Along with their music releases, dozens of other bands and performers have tapped TOP's horn section to record on their albums.  Formed by Emilio Castillo and Stephen "Doc" Kupka, they are still blowing some mean horns today!  Tower of Power have spawned numerous world-class musicians throughout the years including Richard Elliot, Lenny Pickett, Chester Thompson and Euge Groove - just to name a few.  Award-winning program director Ray White catches up with Emilio and Doc backstage in March of 2009, to talk about the great talent that's been a part of the band throughout the years and about the making of The Great American Soulbook album.  Their latest project is Soul Side of Town.  In our "spotlight segment," our hostess Lisa Davis features the most well known vocalist of the bands' storied career - Lenny Williams, who still records and performs today.  His latest studio album is titled Still In The Game.  Learn more about our cutting-edge show by visiting http://www.cooolcat.com  

95% of all winning comes from the same 5% of the competitors.  What makes them different than the rest of us?  Their mental game is better than the others.  Anyone can practice a sport or hobby and develop skill at that sport, but the ones with a better mental system will always win in the end.  How does a person get a better mental game?  My guest today started out as the guy least likely to get to the Olympics as a small kid in 6th grade.  Fast forward to the 1976 Olympics where my guest, Lanny Bassham took the gold medal in small bore rifle shooting.  But it wasn’t an easy road.  Lanny had previously gone to the ’72 Olympics and choked in the gold medal match where he walked away confused and with a silver medal.  In the next four years he would develop his trademarked mental management system that in the past 40 years has lead many students to world championships and other victories.

How do we learn about this system?  Lanny goes over the highlights from the system and his book he wrote, “With Winning in Mind” today with me.  “With Winning in Mind” is mentioned several times in previous podcasts as one of the tools that took good shooters to make them great.  This system also has been taught to special operations and Secret Service.  You’ll learn today why you should value the process and not the outcome, highlight solutions and not problems and finally how to coach your kids to be winners.

I looked forward to speaking with Lanny for a long time.

In the baseball justice system, mascots are represented by two separate, but equally important groups- mascot police, who investigate crimes, and mascot attorneys, who prosecute rogue mascots and make them into bygone McDonald's characters. These are their stories. It's actually just the one.
