  • Star City Culture Committee Ep. 14: Vocal coaching from Ann Marie Pollard
    After 13 episodes, it’s about time the Star City Culture Committee learned how to host a podcast.
    On this week’s episode, co-hosts Mark Champion and Jenna Thompson tap into the full potential of their voices with Ann Marie Pollard, assistant professor of practice at UNL’s Johnny Carson School of Theatre & Film. Pollard teaches UNL students about movement, dialect, acting, voice and more, all while teaching lawyers, teachers and any other interested parties at voicerealized.com.

  • Star City Culture Committee Ep. 13: The Wildwoods perform live
    Live from the National Public Radio’s headquarters, it’s Lincoln folk band The Wildwoods!
    Of course, by “NPR’s headquarters” we really mean The Daily Nebraskan’s dimly-lit podcast room in the basement of the Union. Nonetheless, Noah and Chloe Gose, the local acoustic sensations known as The Wildwoods, are joining co-hosts Mark and Jenna to talk about traveling the world, quarantine creativity and marriage.
    Tune in until the end to hear their new single “Like My Old Man” and “The Thought of Romance,” an unreleased Parisian-style song with notes so swoon-worthy you’ll feel like you’re walking the streets of France.

  • Star City Culture Committee Ep. 12: Lazzi, UNL’s only improv troupe
    What do sex and a chair have in common?
    Not much, but Rachel Stein and Francie Traxler, two members of UNL’s improv troupe Lazzi, are hell-bent on making you laugh while they figure it out.
    On this episode of the Star City Culture Committee, co-hosts Mark Champion and Jenna Thompson sit down with the pair of improvisers to discuss club auditions, improv games, favorite SNL sketches and more. They even improvise two new podcasts, “Platypotamus and Other Fine Combinations” and “Philosophy with the Kardashians.”

  • Star City Culture Committee Ep. 11: Thirst Things First’s Mike Elfers
    Mike Elfers is a man of many hats — when playing Lord Boot, the virtual overseer of his oil-seeking futuristic concept punk band Thirst Things First, his hat is emblazoned with the letters "TTF" across the front.
    But after stepping out from in front of the green screen, Elfers drums with The Killigans, writes for punknews.org and continues to play Pokemon Go. Elfers, who recently celebrated his 37th birthday, has been tearing up the Lincoln music scene since 2002, even managing to branch out and tour the country with his pop-punk band The JV Allstars. In the pandemic, however, Elfers said he has been mostly stuck watching competitive eating videos and writing a new concept album about a death race tournament.
