November 15, 2024 - The Grammys, Roy Haynes, and The Onion buying InfoWars
About The Episode
Today on The Culture Show, co-hosts Jared Bowen, Edgar B. Herwick III and Callie Crossley go over the latest headlines on our arts and culture week-in-review.
First up: The Grammy nominations are out. They’ll go over the snoozers, snubs and surprises.
From there they’ll remember Boston’s own jazz giant Roy Haynes. The pioneering drummer who earned the nickname "Snap Crackle" died this week at age 99. He was one of the last remaining musicians of jazz’s swing and bebop eras.
Then, Simon and Garfunkel break their sound of silence, making amends over lunch in an exchange that brought Art Garfunkel to tears.
And, lions and tigers and pornography, oh my! Mattel merchandise for the “WICKED” movie mistakenly sent people to a website with adult only content.
Plus, it’s not a satirical headline, it’s for real: The Onion buys Alex Jones’s InfoWars in a bankruptcy auction.
