A Hopeless Endeavor: A Joanna Newsom Podcast

Here we are. Thrust into the end-beginning and probably weeping about it. Time DOES pass hard, ancient mysteries linger, death looms, a woman calls out, a bird receives the message, and we bleed out our days into the river of time in this series of light-hearted episodes.

It’s Jack time, BABY. Please stay tuned right until the end of the episode because you will not be disappointed. Our lovely listener, Jack, was kind enough to submit a gorgeous and really insightful voice memo about the musicality of this song. It’s like, ascension in the chords to counteract the falling of the flight attendant which is triumphant and maybe a transcendence of death while at the same time being totally in keeping with the themes through the album of binaries pulling against each other. Maybe. I dunno. Also, droning, obviously mirroring the way we drone on about these songs.

In this series of episodes, we discuss light as life as pinholes as camera obscuras as distorted perspectives as illusions, etc. We consider whether we are plummeting towards our deaths across horizontal planes just as flight attendants plummet to theirs across vertical planes, from planes. Buckle in.

Thank you SO MUCH to the brilliant Lise for her invaluable insights in this episode’s featured voice memo.

Does the way we’re barreling toward the end of this album perfectly mirror the way we’re all barreling toward death? Does You Will Not Take My Heart Alive help us grapple with with both kinds of intolerable angst? You’ll have to tune in to find out.
