Interesting Stuff: reflections on the American place with side trips into literature, art, music, culture and language.Otis Brown's Podcast is a weekly 20 minute monologue podcast often addressing current issues through the lens of personal anecdotes and American Art and Culture--think of it as a radio show you can listen to whenever you want. With free-ranging stories built around cultural figures from John Lewis to Dolores Huerta, musicians from Little Richard to Dolly Parton and painters from the cave painters of Chauvet to living artists like Wayne Thiebaud, Otis Brown's Podcast attempts to construct literary narratives that try and make sense of the beautiful American mess we walk with in the world.

×Just a few thoughts on defending my doctoral dissertation twenty years ago today. Dedicated to the memory of Michael T. "Timo" Gilmore
A bit of news about my decision to walk the Earth--at least while I heal from shoulder surgery.
Hey! Hope you are well. Here's a little update on the state of the Otis Brown Podcast!
A quick note to my listeners.
This week on Otis Brown Podcast, I rerun an (unfortunately) still relevant Podcast from July 15, 2020 on the state of the pandemic and some of the ways our response to it continues to be cultural rather than medical or epidemiological. Hope you enjoy. If you remember this podcast and don't care to listen to it again, please be patient. NEW CONTENT COMING SOON!! Thanks, as always.…
Some news on the podcast along with my apologies for (finally and inevitably) missing my (self-imposed) deadline. Thanks!
In this week's Otis Brown Podcast, I recount a chance meeting with an old friend and explore the complex feelings we have when new information does violence to old memories. Key words: J.D. Salinger. The Catcher in the Rye, Seymour: An Introduction Eugen Herrigel. Zen in the Art of Archery Looking Glass "Brandy (You're a Fine Girl)" Dixie Fire…
Wear your lifejacket! In this week's Otis Brown Podcast, I tell only the latest story of having to help pluck someone out of a would-be watery grave. I also talk about a bunch of old dead New England writers and painters, just because I always do . . .
Hey, what do you do if you get a tax break? Pay down your credit card? Go out to eat? Bezos and Branson build cool rockets that the rest of us can look at on our phone! What fun! In this week's Otis Brown Podcast, I offer some thoughts on the centibillionaire space race and make the (rather obvious) observation that Jeff Bezos is no John Glenn. Key words: Jeff Bezos Richard Branson John Glenn Friendship 7 Gil Scott Heron: "The Revolution Will Not Be Televised," "Whitey on the Moon" Lightnin' Hopkins: Walking This Road by Myself, "Happy Blues for John Glenn"…
Just a little coda to the Wonderful World podcast. Image is Joe Everson's amazing "Louis Armstrong."
In this week's Otis Brown Podcast, I explore the new Questlove film Summer of Soul , which makes visible, for the first time to a large audience, the Harlem Cultural Festival of 1969. Dubbed the "Black Woodstock," the HCF was truly its own unique thing and its invisibility in the American cultural landscape has been a tragedy. The podcast is intended as a primer for the film and doesn't really contain any spoilers and, I hope, it also offers some useful insights to those who have already seen it. Enjoy.…
The Louis Armstrong of your time might be living in your town right now, and if you don't find him, you will still come out more than conqueror (just to be clear, a reference to Zora Neale Hurston and the great song of the same name by Estelle!) . In this week's episode of Otis Brown Podcast, I think about Ralph Ellison's assertion that there was a Charlie Parker in every town. I also encourage my listeners to embrace local music and discuss a painting by the NOLA artist Todd Lyons.…
An ad for Popeye's classic chicken sandwich? A rant about the Toyota Prius? No! It's this week's Otis Brown Podcast, wherein I think about my life behind the wheel of a pickup and the contemporary "list" country songs about trucks. Keywords: Blake Shelton "Boys Round Here" Tim McGraw "Truck Yeah" Jerry Jeff Walker/Ray Wylie Hubbard "Up Against the Wall Redneck Mother" Steve Goodman/John Prine/ David Allen Coe "You Never Even Called Me By My Name" Jefferson Airplane "We Can Be Together" Amiri Baraka "Black People" Patty Hearst Popeye's Classic Chicken Sandwich…
