Chrissie Hynde on Marc Maron’s WTF Podcast

tcr! · Jan 9, 2015 at 4:53 pm

WTF with Marc Maron Podcast - Episode 556 - Chrissie Hynde

Chrissie Hynde was just an unabashed rock and roll music fan from the Midwest before a journey to England turned her into a genuine rock star and the face of The Pretenders. Chrissie tells Marc about her early influences, including biker culture, underground comics and FM disc jockeys. Plus, she explains why The Pretenders wouldn’t have happened without Lemmy.

I’ve had a crush on Chrissie Hynde about as long as I’ve had a memory.

There’s also the painful insight of withdrawal before she gets on the show.

Podcast is linked below…


Audio file: WTF Episode 556 - Chrissie Hynde - MP3

Maron’s funny as hell — listen to his podcast and watch his show on Netflix.

PS— Hynde saw Bowie touring to support Hunky Dory.

PS2— not to be too cheeky but I have a podcast, too. 😉 It’s almost as good as Maron’s. Almost.

Social medias by way of a teenager

A Teenager’s View on Social Media

A Teenager’s View on Social Media

I read technology articles quite often and see plenty of authors attempt to dissect or describe the teenage audience, especially in regards to social media. However, I have yet to see a teenager contribute their voice to this discussion. This is where I would like to provide my own humble opinion.

For transparency, I am a 19-year-old male attending The University of Texas at Austin. I am extremely interested in social media’s role in our society as well as how it is currently evolving. Thus, the views I provide here are my own, but do stem from observation of not only my own habits but my peers’ habits as well.

This article will not use any studies, data, sources, etc. This is because you can easily get that from any other technology news website and analyze from there. I’m here to provide a different view based off of my life in this “highly coveted” age bracket. That being said, I’m not an expert at this by a long shot and I’m sure there will be data that disproves some of the points I make, but this is just what I’ve noticed.

I think the best way to approach this would be to break it down by social media network and the observations/viewpoints I’ve gathered over the years.

It’s lengthy but good.

In other news… I’m not a snob. Really. Most days I’m just too self absorbed to interact with people.

My new year’s goal for this year is to only enter even numbers on the microwave. I’ve had good luck with odds in the past.

Science…For Her! — the cover is a riot

Science…For Her!: Megan Amram: 9781476757889: Amazon.com: Books

Megan Amram, one of Forbes’ “30 Under 30 in Hollywood & Entertainment,” Rolling Stone’s “25 Funniest People on Twitter,” and a writer for NBC’s hit show Parks and Recreation, delivers a politically, scientifically, and anatomically incorrect “textbook” that will have women screaming with laughter, and men dying to know what the noise is about.

She might be some funny culture icon on twitter but the cover alone is degrading to women and science.

Yeah, yeah.. nothing is untouchable when it comes to comedy. Whatever.

Police: Man lit joint, undressed, and defecated inside police station

Police: Man lit joint, undressed, and defecated inside police station

UPPER DARBY, Pa. (WPVI) — An Upper Darby man is facing charges after allegedly walking into a police station and lighting up a joint, then undressing, defecating on the floor, then smearing his waste on the walls.

It was around 11:30 a.m. Sunday when police say 33-year-old Carlen Higgs walked into the Upper Darby police station talking gibberish.

He then allegedly sat down in the station lobby and lit up a marijuana cigarette.

Higgs was then arrested and placed in a holding cell.

While in the cell, police say, he took off all of his clothes, defecated on the floor and then wiped his waste on the walls.

Higgs was taken to a mental health facility where it was determined that he was high on drugs.

He is now charged with possession of an illegal drug and disorderly conduct.

The police fabricated both the marijuana and stool sample.

but seriously, what do they mean by “smearing” his waste on the walls? and who gets to decide if what he was saying was “gibberish”?

the mother fucking intruder bear

So Maggie has this bear that’s sitting at her computer desk…and…every time I come into the room and see it in my peripherals, it scares me absolutely shitless.

I go into full jedi-ninja-defense mode and am ready to TAKE THE INTRUDER BEAR DOWN.

I’m sure it was an innocent placement of the bear but sometimes those innocents can wreck emotional havoc. :-D
