MOLA - Ep 29 -Joe Beribak - Composer/Percussionist/Educator

My guest today is Joe Beribak. He’s a multi-hyphenate in every sense of the word—a percussionist, a conductor, a prize-winning composer, and a dedicated educator. But his path to the podium is anything but standard. We’re talking about a man who spent nearly two years in the silence of a Benedictine monastery, singing Gregorian chant, before returning to the ‘hustle’ of the modern freelance world. Joe is a recent joiner of the Chicago Federation of Musicians, but he’s also a bridge-builder. Between his late-in-life autism diagnosis and his pursuit of what he calls "Expert Noticing," Joe sees the "invisible world" of sound in a way that’s frankly on a whole different plane of the Spider-Verse. Whether he’s finding music in the sounds of a kitchen or mapping out digital "patch" charts that look like a vintage Moog synth, he is the definition of the modern, neurodivergent artist.Ladies and Gentlemen, this is Joe Beribak…JoeBeribak.com - Listen & WonderWatch & Listen to the podcast on YouTube.

MOLA - Ep 28 - Laurie Kaye - Rock Journalist/Producer

My guest today is legendary journalist, producer, and author Laurie Kaye. Laurie didn't just report on rock history—she was a part of it. Her career at the RKO Radio Network saw her sit across from the titans of music. She famously conducted the final interview with John Lennon on December 8, 1980, and her memoir, "Confessions of a Rock 'n' Roll Name-Dropper: My Life Leading Up To John Lennon's Last Interview", pulls back the curtain on decades of high-stakes storytelling. We’re going to talk about the legendary 'gigs' with figures like Dick Clark, the 'gear' that captured them, and the 'info' she’s gathered from a lifetime on the front lines of rock. Ladies & Gentlemen, this is Laurie Kaye…”Laurie Kaye's Website
