The 4K/UHD podcast is back again and this week it’s all about musical satirist Roy Zimmerman!
All of this is available in UHD on YouTube by searching “Glossy Podcast” or as an MP3 on iTunes by searching “Glossy News”.
Here are the topics covered in the the June 20th edition, but really, it’s all about Roy Zimmerman in one way or another.
* An exclusive backstage interview with Roy Zimmerman from his show in Seattle at the Phinney Ridge Neighborhood Center, sponsored by the Seattle Folklore Society.
* Intro to Roy Zimmerman with his hit song “Creation Science 101”.
* Snippet of his song “This Machine (speaks truth to power)”
* Review of his song “Vote Republican” and how it almost seems like conservative leaders have to hypnotize voters just to make them vote against their own best interests.
* A look at the strong musical influences of the likes of The Beatles in his work.
* Topical stuff like the Bathroom Bills being passed around the country.
* Much like Bill Maher (whom he’s opened for in past shows,) Roy talks about what he calls the “blue dot” enclaves in otherwise deeply red areas. Listen as he explains and goes into detail on that.
* A quick song criticizing the effect Citizens United has had on democracy in America and the myth that corporations are people, my friend.
* The best quiet moment in a live performance I’ve ever witnessed during a song about the dangers of Driving While Black.
* Another topical song, this time about gun violence, performed less than a day after the tragic Orlando shooting. It’s only topical in the sense that a shooting had just happened, but really, the happen all the time, so I guess it’s always on topic.
* Roy offers up something unique for this election: A new song every week until the election.
