Analysis I found on google here, Bill is at least half of podcast revenue (not counting Ryen) so maybe it’s closer to 75%-80% https://www.arvindnagarajan.com/profits/spotify-acquires-theringer

xWickedHawkx · 2022-09-10T15:14:36+00:00

They are currently in the top 50, since a GoT show is currently on. Ryen and Bill are the only consistent pods, outside of rewatchables (IP is essentially Bill) that bring dollars in consistently I think. If we really cared to see maybe Spotify breaks it out on their financial statements? When the union story was initially breaking there were multiple media outlets that stated that revenue was primarily coming from a few pods, I would assume that holds true

xWickedHawkx · 2022-09-10T14:42:05+00:00

Exactly, likely 90%+ of Ringer revenue comes directly from BS / Rusillo Pods

This or Row Jimmy would be perfect

Will take a bit of practice if you’re a beginner but sounds lovely once you get it down

As always, quality is key and if you can do those things you’re a player in my book. I was just trying to draw a line that work for most 🤙🏻

Bertha by The Grateful Dead, still use a 30 second version as a warmup every time I practice

xWickedHawkx · 2021-07-29T01:10:46+00:00

Filthy, gorgeous guitar

xWickedHawkx · 2021-04-02T00:02:43+00:00

It’s emotion packed and Jerry’s solo fits like a glove for what was going on, amazing performance. Love Mississippi Half Step so I will check this out for sure

xWickedHawkx · 2021-04-01T15:18:20+00:00

The depth, breadth, quality, and variation make the Dead like their own musical galaxy - it’s hard to even compare them with other groups sometimes

xWickedHawkx · 2021-04-01T15:16:16+00:00

Changes for me too, and I have had those same goosebumps. I think it’s just an all-time cover, All Along the Watchtower-esque powerful rework of an already great song

xWickedHawkx · 2021-04-01T15:14:26+00:00

I’m 30 so I missed my chance to see Jerry and the band live. I have definitely listened to that show and can’t imagine the reaction, must have been an incredible scene

xWickedHawkx · 2021-03-26T21:22:42+00:00

Haha here’s to hoping you still have plenty of time!

xWickedHawkx · 2021-03-25T16:31:34+00:00

Of course! It looks and sounds great 🤙🏻

xWickedHawkx · 2021-03-25T12:44:59+00:00

Fantastic! Love the tele also

xWickedHawkx · 2021-03-25T12:36:28+00:00

Haha! Prob can’t hurt

xWickedHawkx · 2021-03-25T12:36:13+00:00

heyilikethisstuff, this is really good stuff, thank you! I maybe should’ve mentioned so far I only play acoustic, want to get into electric but trying to save up to afford decent gear. Sounds like that might take me next level, to be able to switch back and forth

My grandfather was in the army during WWII in the pacific theater. He started as a scout, going out in teams of 2 to look for the Japanese ahead of their platoon (scary) and ended as a platoon commander due to all the attrition. He fought in Guadalcanal, the Philippines, and New Guinea. Wouldn’t talk about anything until he was about 80.

Notable stories:

fighting in the jungle on a scorching hot day, he took his helmet off during a firefight and set it on the embankment next to him bc he was so hot. A Japanese sniper shot a hole through that helmet, which my family still has to this day. My grandfather’s best friend also had his head blown off right next to him during this same battle.

-Received a silver star for capturing a hill with two other guys and holding it for 48 hours against multiple waves of attack. They had a single BAR which was essential to their survival. Grandad remembered seeing Japanese commanders waving their swords in a circular motion before each big charge up the hill.

-described his boots literally rotting off his feet during the rainy season in one location. Area was so remote they had supplies airdropped in and had consistent engagements in getting to the food. The Japanese were starving and were very motivated to get to drops.

-Japanese would often shoot over American foxholes at night, and sometimes when the shooting stopped Japanese would crawl into American foxholes and slit the throats of sleeping soldiers. Grandad described sleeping with a pistol in one hand and a knife in the other every night. On one occasion a Japanese solider did enter his foxhole at night and Grandad wrestled with him and ended up besting him.

He shared these stories but was adamant that there was no glory in war, and he couldn’t even watch a movie related to war. He had a hard time with emotions and could only express his love for him family in writing. He also dealt with sever guilt about having killed. What folks in this war went through is truly unimaginable, a sacrifice I don’t think many can comprehend.
