Song Exploder - Lizzy McAlpine – Staying

Lizzy McAlpine released her first album in 2020, and her second album in 2022. And between the two, she’s had a lot of success. One of her songs, "Ceilings," was a viral TikTok hit, and has been streamed over half a billion times. So you might think, with all that success, you’d want to keep working in way that’s been working. But while Lizzy was making her third album, Older, after almost a year into the process of recording, she threw the whole thing out. She brought in a new band, and started over with a totally different approach. I talked to her about the song "Staying," from her new album. You’ll hear her original voice memos, as well as the first version she made in the studio, and then how it really came to life once she reimagined it.

CoinDesk Podcast Network - UNCHAINED: Why Many Democrats, Including the White House, Have Come Around on Crypto

Sheila Warren delves into the political dynamics and regulatory shifts driving the recent regulatory change of heart around crypto.

Listen to the episode on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Pods, Fountain, Overcast, Podcast Addict, Pocket Casts, Castbox, Amazon Music, or on your favorite podcast platform.

Sheila Warren, CEO of the Crypto Council for Innovation, joins Unchained to explore the dramatic shift by Democrats in the last few weeks on crypto. She explains why she believes the overturning of SAB 121 and the House vote for the FIT21 bill were both instrumental to the White House's changing view on crypto and may have played a role in the SEC’s surprising approval of spot ETH ETFs. 

Having worked for years on passing crypto legislation and as a lifelong Democrat, Sheila describes what kinds of arguments were persuasive to Democratic members of Congress, addresses some criticisms of the FIT21 bill, and gives her perspective on the debate about single-issue voters.

Show highlights:

  •  The overall attitude toward crypto in Washington going into the House vote on SAB 121 on May 8
  • The bipartisan votes in the House and Senate to overturn SAB 121
  • Why, by the time of the Senate vote on FIT21, the White House had had a change of heart about crypto
  • Why, after the Senate vote to repeal SAB 121, the SEC approved the spot ETH ETFs
  • Why Sheila is so proud of the passage in the House of the FIT21 bill
  • How Sheila and CCI approached their discussions with Democrats and what arguments they found effective
  • Whether the industry has survived the negative image of SBF and FTX
  • The sea change in the White House between the SAB 121 vote and the FIT21 vote
  • A high-level description of the FIT21 bill 
  • What kind of authority the bill would give the CFTC over crypto 
  • What the implications of the bill are for launching tokens
  • FIT21’s approach to regulating DeFi and how the FIT21 bill is "kicking the can" on this topic
  • The overall political and legislation landscape and the next likely steps for crypto
  • Whether the ETF approval changes anything about the SEC’s investigation into Ethereum
  • What Sheila thinks about the 'crypto single-issue voter’ debate

The Commentary Magazine Podcast - Is De Niro Biden’s Idea of a Youngster?

Why on earth would the Biden campaign haul out 80 year-old Robert De Niro to tussle with protesters outside the New York courthouse? Could it be that, for Biden, De Niro is a strapping young fellow with the vim and vigor to speak to today's youth? More seriously, Jonathan Schanzer joins us with some actual good news coming out of the Israeli effort in Rafah. Give a listen.

Stuff They Don't Want You To Know - What are Freight Brokers?

Civilization only exists as a result of global trade. Without countless trucks, trains, cargo ships and aircraft, the world as humans understand it will collapse. In tonight's episode, Ben, Matt, and Noel explore a particularly fascinating aspect of global shipping -- the freight brokers. These companies are logistical giants: in theory, they intervene to make sure everything gets from Point A to Point Z in the most efficient manner possible. This evening, we ask: What happens when these industries conspire?
