Arroe Collins Like Its Live Unplugged And Totally Uncut

During the Cold War Space Race, the U.S. not only had to defeat the Soviet Union in a competition over rocketry and technological feats.  It also needed to overcome its own racial prejudice.

February 27, 2002 Nothing ever changes Interviewer: Why don’t you get along with people? I never have! My entire life has been spent walking the steps of a solo man’s foot.

I admit all things done wrong. If I...

Along Comes The Association is the story of how Russ Giguere and his fellow band members in the legendary and influential pop group The Association came together to create unparalleled music, unique to the time and place, and never again to be repeated.  Yes, there were drugs, and there were women, such as the lovely Linda Ronstadt and Helen Mirren, but it was the Sixties, after all.

I was with a major corporation yesterday that's developed a product that learns from itself.  A.I. learning.  It remembers!  They've put thousands upon thousands of pictures inside the chips of this device so that when it comes near a object it will know what the next move is.  On this podcast I compare how this new A.I. availability is what we used to do with ourselves.  ...

February 26, 2002 Wallowing in unchanged motor oil It’s a weird day… my gut instinct is screaming in a foreign language. My silence is nothing, but a mental documentation or planned strategy of how your words will soon be freed leading straight back in your direction. My mistakes are no different than other path makers—if this serves as a problem, we need to work it out, not fire invisible words o...

The title instantly reminds me of the childhood book Are You My Mother? What was it like?  I wish I would've spent time asking my grandparents that question.  My mother's father served our nation in World War One.   A determined man.  He loved taking care of the land that made up his farm in Wyoming.  I remember feeding slop to the pigs and watching my grandfather tak...
