In this episode we'll explore patience as a feeling and connections between patience and music. Does music help us become patient? And when does music require our patience? We talk about mindfulness, why music on hold sounds so awful, and how patience isn't always a virtue

In this episode we'll continue our exploration of musical nostalgia. I will take you back to the years of your youth and to the swinging 1930s in Latvia. I will also try to answer the question if there is music that is inherently nostalgic. This is the second part of a double feature episode.

In this episode we'll explore the origins of the word “nostalgia” and its connection to a strange “wasting disease” of Swiss mercenary soldiers in the 17th century. I will also talk about the positive effects of nostalgia and the feeling of impossibility that nostalgia induces. Music, of course, plays a central role in each case. This is part one of a double feature episode.

Each episode of "Catch 33 1/3" is filled with trivia and anecdotes, hidden musical gems, and original compositions. But most importantly, this podcast features you. Leave me a voicemail on Speakpipe to become part of the conversation.
