The latest episode of FTR70 is in your podcast app today! In this episode, I discuss heartland rock and how its themes reach far beyond those states in the middle of the U.S. I will also touch on why the politically conservative men of the 70s and 80s gravitated to this style of rock.

Can you imagine a world without Brian Wilson and The Beach Boys? Me either. 📸Michael Ochs

In your podcast feed now, a quick (7 minutes) reflection on the importance of Sly Stone to 70s music. I’m calling it a sound bite and maybe it will become a regular (or semi-regular thing?🤷🏻‍♀️)

What a legend we have lost! Sly and the Family Stone shaped the sound of the early 70s and left an enduring mark on soul and funk music. If you haven’t listened to Family Affair, Hot Fun in the Summertime, or Everyday People lately, do yourself a favor and go refresh your memory.

If there is a better place to see Charley Crockett and Leon Bridges, I don’t know where it would be.

Both born on this day: Sergeant Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band and … me! Happy Birthday to both of us! And Happy Pride Month, too! 🎂🎸🌈

Not music but damn. I still watch MASH regularly and can’t imagine growing up without it. May Loretta rest in peace.

School’s out for summer and summer reading has begun! Looking forward to digging in to this! ☀️

Do you know who is on the drum kit? That is Karen Carpenter, appearing with brother, Richard, on the Tonight Show with Johnny Carson. On the next episode of FTR70 , I will examine the intersection of talk shows and music! In fact, that will probably require a look into the 80s, so you know there will be Johnny AND David Letterman!

What came next for 70s heavy metal in the 80s? Tune in to the latest episode of FTR70 to find out how Quiet Riot opened the door for these guys and their Union Jack shorts and how Van Halen’s synthesizer (blasphemy!) changed the metal sound. It’s in your podcast feed now! 🚨Alert: FTR70 is the new home for 80s topics! The focus for 80s topics will be “what happened next” — a continuation of topics previously discussed on FTR70. So, if you follow both, be advised that FTR80 will be no more at the end of May. 📸Mark Weiss

This makes my heart sink. While working on a lesson about the 70s energy crisis, I see this banner across the top of the PBS Learning Media website. Trying to stop funding for PBS because you view PBS as a political enemy will have wide-reaching implications— and not just for my lessons! I will be contacting Congress to urge an all-out effort to stop this. I hope you will, too
