    Introducing The canal that shaped American finance from The Story of Money. Follow the show: The Story of Money The construction of the Erie Canal is one of the most ambitious infrastructure projects in American history. But its most influential legacy is not the waterway itself, it is how it was paid for. Hosts Gillian Tett and Robin Wigglesworth speak with financial historian Richard Sylla about how a gutsy New York City mayor won over politicians, citizens and investors to build something that not only transformed trade in a young nation, but also made New York City a financial centre and laid the blueprint for America’s municipal bond market.  Further reading: Wedding of the Waters: The Erie Canal and the Making of a Great Nation (2006), by Peter L.

    Mother Mary – Set Me On Fire

    MOTHERMARY makes retro-futuristic Art Pop. Named after the mother of Christ, the ultimate symbol of religious hypocrisy and the impossible expectations placed on women, the bicoastal project is the brainchild of identical twins Elyse & Larena, who grew up in a Mormon family in Missoula, Montana, the youngest of nearly a dozen children. "It was our world… our paradigm," Larena says about those days. "We were brainwashed." Check out MotherMary at mothermary.band Elyse was the first to get out and started MOTHERMARY in her bushwick bedroom in early 2016. After leaving the repression of religion and experiencing similar barriers in the music industry, Elyse taught herself music production. "I wanted to have control over the sound. TOTAL control." Larena followed suit, left the church, and rejoined Elyse in NYC in late 2016 joining the band to create the duo we know today. Creating music together became a form of therapy. A way to heal from their religious trauma and patriarchal oppression. Watch MotherMary on YouTube, Instagram or everywhere @MOTHERMARYMUSIC The sound Elyse and Larena have created is indeed extremely specific. The contrast of light and dark — of exquisite, ethereal vocals and dark, even gritty instrumentation — is elusive and engrossing, a unique juxtaposition that's entirely in keeping with the sensibility of sisters who have always refused to be pinned down or defined. The group split studio time equally between NYC and LA over the last two years and on January 28th, 2022, they served their mesmerizing debut, I Am Your God, via Italians Do It Better. A Sin Wave work of Art Pop that's utterly singular, a dazzling hybrid of the old and the new. This episode of Getting the Gig from the Break It Down Show is hosted by Jon Leon Guerrero. The show is produced by Jon Leon Guerrero, Larry Lemas and Executive Produced by Pete A Turner

    Digital Black, Todd White and Alan Healy - Momma Said

    🎙️ Getting The Gig welcomes Digital Black, Todd White & Alan Healy Some collaborations are more than just songs—they're full-circle moments. Today's conversation brings together three artists whose journeys helped shape different chapters of R&B history, each leaving a lasting imprint on the genre in their own way. Digital Black first earned his place in R&B history as a founding member of Playa, one of the standout groups to emerge from DeVante Swing's Da Bassment camp alongside future icons including Missy Elliott, Timbaland, Ginuwine, and Static Major. A respected singer, songwriter, producer, and now member of the multi-platinum group Dru Hill, his career continues to bridge generations of classic and contemporary R&B. Joining him are Todd White and Alan Healy, whose story has become one of the most fascinating "what ifs" in 1990s R&B. Originally signed to Capitol Records as Sudden Impact, they later joined Michael Bivins' Biv 10/Motown Records as Whytgize, before continuing as Outsiderz 4 Life through Blackground Records. Though label changes and industry circumstances kept them from reaching the heights many predicted, their story has since become part of R&B lore, introducing a new generation of fans to one of the era's most intriguing untold stories. Now, those worlds come together on "Momma Said," a heartfelt collaboration that reunites decades of experience, musicianship, and perseverance while proving that great music has no expiration date. Today, we're talking about Playa, Dru Hill, Da Bassment, Sudden Impact, Whytgize, songwriting, brotherhood, navigating the music business, surviving the industry's highs and lows, and why the best chapters are sometimes the ones still being written. 🎙️ Jon Leon Guerrero's Getting The Gig series presented by Pete A Turner's Break it Down Show proudly welcomes Digital Black, Todd White, and Alan Healy. This episode is produced by Todd Davis, Jon Leon Guerrero and Pete A Turner
