Luck & Fame

It's a podcast double feature! This week we're dividing our efforts into respective deep dives on two topics: TMR's Luck Mansion Sessions, and The White Stripes eligibility for induction into the Rock'n'Roll Hall of Fame. Sometimes on the show we find ourselves with two many questions to answer in just one installment, so for this double feature we're combining our curiosities into one epic Third Men Podcast episode. First up is our look at a series of 7" releases from Third Man Records titled The Luck Mansion Sessions - these releases (and indeed the Luck Mansion Session itself) have been mentioned on the show several times, but without context we had very little idea what all of it meant and how it came to be. Well wonder no more - we've got (some of) the answers for you here! Then, in the second half of our double feature, we bring on rock journalist and teacher Stephen Mercier to discuss the politics, selection process, and general criteria for induction into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. With the White Stripes' eligibility for induction looming...what are the odds the group gets on the ballot? Stephen fills in the blanks for us and for you! Hosted on Acast.
