It’s a podcast bonanza here at Beachwood HQ. Let’s take a look.
* The Beachwood Radio Hour #63A: We Are Living In The Golden Age Of Rock ‘N’ Roll.
Every age of rock ‘n’ roll, in fact, is a golden age.
Also: My Heart, Ranked; and Women Rule Rock.
Plus: A few words about a suicidal Sandra Bland.
Remember, you can follow along in Show Notes – or use those to guide you to the exact point in the ‘cast you wanna go.
* The Beachwood Radio Hour #63B: My Journey Through America’s Dumbest Newsrooms.
I’ve got stories. Boy, do I have stories. I could go on for years. And I may!
Granted, my journey hasn’t really been through America’s dumbest newsrooms, but, sadly, through America’s typical newsrooms. It ain’t pretty, folks.
Subhed: Inside The Media’s Mediocre Mindset.
Plus: Making The Milwaukee-Medill Mural. This is really cool stuff. Links to photos in Show Notes – which you should always consult . . .

Podcasts are also downloadable. They can also be found on Soundcloud, where they are archived more neatly than they are here. All the information you need is right there on the posts.
