The Longwave Home
The Longwave Home is a home frequency in a fractured era — a refuge of story, sound, and human connection broadcasting from the foothills of Northern California. Part radio album, part community chronicle, part late-night companion, each episode explores a single humanitarian theme and follows it wherever the signal leads: into music, into memory, into conversations with neighbors, into small acts of courage, into the long echo of history, and into the lives we’re all trying to make sense of. Rooted in Gold Country, but resonating far beyond it, Longwave is built from the voices that live here — the farmers, artists, elders, fire survivors, dreamers, activists, wanderers, and working folk who give this place its pulse. It’s a listener-supported, commercial-free broadcast stitched together from interviews, performance, field recordings, narrative vignettes, archival scraps, and the kind of unexpected moments you can only catch when you’re listening closely. This is not a podcast. This is radio the old way — slow, deep, intentional — but made for right now. It’s a sanctuary carved out of the static, a reminder that we’re still allowed to feel things in full color, and an invitation to sit with stories that might just sit with you in return. Tune in. Settle in. Let the signal find you. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

We say “I understand” all the time. But what do we really mean? Is understanding simply knowing the facts? Is it agreement? Experience? Perspective? And what happens when all the information in the world still doesn’t help something make sense?
Episode Nine of The Longwave Home explores the curious, complicated and deeply human business of understanding ourselves, each other, and ...
“Did You Hear What I Heard?”
The world is saying an awful lot, even when nobody’s talking. This time on The Longwave Home, we tune into the words, music, noise, silence, and everything in between.

A river floods. A town begins to rebuild.
In the aftermath, the people of Free River reckon with loss, uncertainty, change, and the stubborn human tendency to carry on.

What are we loyal to... and why?

What does it mean to create something… and then recognize yourself inside it?
In this episode of The Longwave Home, we spend time with Nevada County artists—people who live inside the act of making… and unmaking… and making again. Through three conversations, we explore creativity not as a skill, but as a way of seeing… a way of becoming… a way of Life.
And in Free River,...
Every plan assumes the world will cooperate. But sometimes the melody bends, the timing slips, or the path quietly forks. Episode Three reflects on the art of recalibration—pausing, listening, and finding a new rhythm when the one you expected no longer fits. Because moving forward often begins with learning how to start again.
Featuring music and conversations with world-renowned local favorites, CHECKED OUT.

What does connection look like right now—how does it begin, how does it last, and how does it change us? In Transmissions, the first episode of The Longwave Home, The Commentator listens in on the signals that move between us: a quiet moment in a diner, voices from a local community, memories that linger long after a conversation ends.

DISGRACELAND is an award-winning music and true crime podcast about musicians getting away with murder and behaving very badly. Jerry Lee Lewis's 5th wife? Dead. Sid and Nancy? Both dead. Why? Because musicians are insane, and insane things happen to them. Why did we lose Amy Winehouse at 27? Was Debbie Harry really abducted by Ted Bundy as she claims? Is Patti Smith not just the "Godmother of Punk", but also the "Original True Crime Girl"? What really happened the night of the Jay Z nightclub stabbing? What do the Diddy indictments truly reveal? All these stories and more, on artists from every genre and their true crimes, in our massive 260-plus story archive. The Dead, the Stones, Johnny, Willie, Frank, Kurt, Courtney, Gaga, Lana, Taylor, and too many to name. DISGRACELAND is music history come to life through audio storytelling as you've never heard it before, with revealing facts: yes, assassins are the real reason the Beatles quit touring—reclaimed myths: no, Mama Cass didn't die from choking on a ham sandwich––and constant reckoning between art and artist––all told through the lens of true crime. This is the podcast for the self-proclaimed "Disgos", the musically obsessed and the true crime heads; the outsiders, the independent thinkers who know that the best history is the history that gets buried. DISGRACELAND is where host Jake Brennan tells the stories they didn't want told. The kind you'll end up telling someone else. Get ready to uncover hidden truths and buckle up for truly edge-of-your-seat storytelling. New, fully scripted, sound-designed episodes are released every Tuesday. Bonus chat-style episodes where Jake responds to voicemails, texts, and emails from Disgos hit on Thursdays, and "Rewind" episodes from our archive drop on Sundays. DISGRACELAND is not a journalistic podcast. It's an entertainment podcast inspired by true events. Certain dialogue and scenes are dramatized, as is common in scripted entertainment based on real stories. Sources and credits for each episode are available at www.disgracelandpod.com.
