Billie Joe Armstrong
About this listen
Soaring ambition. Unwavering integrity. Billie Joe Armstrong isn’t the first punk to negotiate mainstream success, but he might be its most undisguised example. In Welcome to my Panic, Green Day’s iconic front man holds nothing back as he tracks listeners though his deeply personal and artistic journey in raw detail.
Matching his emotional storytelling with new, exclusive, recordings of Green Day’s biggest hits including “Basket Case”, “Good Riddance”, “Wake Me Up When September Ends”, and “American Idiot”, Armstrong chronicles the seminal moments in his life: the trauma and triumphs that have come to define him. As we listen, Billie Joe reminds us punk rock is not about how hard you can play but how hard you can remain yourself.

Bryan Cranston landed his first role at seven, when his father, a struggling actor and director, cast him in a United Way commercial. Soon Bryan was haunting the local movie theater, memorizing and reenacting favorite scenes with his older brother. Acting was clearly the boy's destiny - until one day his father disappeared. Suddenly destiny took a backseat to survival. Seeking something more stable, perhaps subconsciously trying to distance himself from his absent father, Cranston decided on a career in law enforcement.

Brandi Carlile was born into a musically gifted, impoverished family on the outskirts of Seattle and grew up in a constant state of change, moving from house to house, trailer to trailer, 14 times in as many years. Though imperfect in every way, her dysfunctional childhood was as beautiful as it was strange, and as nurturing as it was difficult. At the age of five, Brandi contracted bacterial meningitis, which almost took her life, leaving an indelible mark on her formative years and altering her journey into young adulthood.

For his victims, for their families and for the investigators tasked with finding him, the senselessness and brutality of the Golden State Killer's acts were matched only by the powerlessness they felt at failing to uncover his identity. Then, on April 24, 2018, authorities arrested 72-year-old Joseph James DeAngelo at his home in Citrus Heights, Calif., based on DNA evidence linked to the crimes. Amazingly, it seemed, evil finally had a name. Please note: This work contains descriptions of violent crime and sexual assault and may not be suitable for all listeners.

Story
You can’t truly understand the last decade of the 20th century without a look at the muddy, electrifying rock music that would come to define it: grunge. For such a short-lived genre—at least in the mainstream—grunge had a lasting impact on American music and culture. It also provides a unique lens through which to examine the post-Reagan, pre-internet America of the 1990s. In the six lectures of The Story of Grunge, you’ll explore the rise and evolution of the genre, tracing it from Seattle subculture to MTV and the Billboard charts, all the way to its decline and evolution into new forms.

RREF! Real, raw, enlightening and funny
I wish this were longer and I also would have paid for this. I heard about Green Day in 1992 but didn't listen or realize how great they were until maybe 2005 or 2006 when they came to Portland and I took my daughter to their show.
I love that Billie Joe talks about the process of becoming who they are and it gives us fans a glimpse into what all goes on, not just getting to production but the innermost thoughts of the artist. Fantastic song writing. I could go on and on but this is a really good listen.

This was a fantastic quick listen into the front singer of the band Green Day. Hearing where he was in his mindset writing some of my favorite songs was interesting and insightful. It really makes you listen harder to those songs as you know the background too.

Long time fan
This was a short and sweet little history of one of my favorite frontmen. Green Day will always be one of my favorite bands. When I was a teenager in the early 2000s their music was everything to me. Billie Joe is the biggest influence on my picking up a guitar. I learned just about every Dookie track followed by American Idiot. Anyways, it was interesting to hear about the events we all know about from his point of view. Of course we've all heard about all their craziness in the media, but to actually listen to his thoughts and feelings leading up to (and after) record releases, Woodstock, iHeat was quite entertaining. The acoustic versions of the tracks he recorded for this were fun to listen to too. My only criticism is that I would have loved to hear about the Revolution Radio making process. It just kinda drops off after the iHeart meltdown, he performs Grafitia and that's it. I thought RR was an amazing album so I would have loved some depth there. I still rated it 5 stars though just because I'm biased.
