Welcome back to another episode of Spun Today. In this episode, I dive into a creative review and breakdown of the film Sinners, written and directed by Ryan Coogler. I pull out writing insights, character craft, and the power of blending personal history with big genre themes—sharing lessons any writer or creative can use to fuel their own work. &nbsp; But that’s just the beginning. I also recount the unforgettable experience of seeing comedian, writer, and director Mo Amer live in New York City, and what it meant to meet a creative whose storytelling is as universal as it is personal. Plus, I touch on big podcast news, including Marc Maron’s announcement that the legendary WTF podcast is coming to an end after over 1600 episodes and 16 years. Whether you’re a writer seeking inspiration, a fan of genre-bending stories, or just someone looking to stay in the loop with creative culture, this episode is for you. So settle in—let’s explore the art of storytelling, the magic of live comedy, and the evolving world of podcasts, all through the ever-creative lens of Spun Today. 

The Spun Today Podcast is a Podcast that is anchored in Writing & Random Rants, but unlimited in scope. Give it a whirl.

A song about offering something real in a world obsessed with gold. A quiet voice speaking to a soul trapped in the cage of fame. It’s a love letter never sent, a ring made of paper, and a silence heavy with meaning. For those who’ve loved someone they couldn’t reach, this is for you.

My Podcast is meant to be a fusion of my favorite past-times; Free-Writing and Podcasts.  A one man rant-a-thon filled with tangents to see just how far the rabbit-holes can go.  Un-edited, off the cuff.

This SoundCloud is my Project Freeman Music 'Works In Progress' Platform.
Here are all the Demos I've captured of my Compositions to date, including my 'Songs of Freedom', which are categorised as Relating, Realisation, Remedy & Rebellion (and Revelry!) on the 'Road to Redemption', from Serf to Self, from Slave to Sovereign. 
The demos are of various quality, from the early 90's Gregorian to the present day... 
PLUS here I share audio of 'Project Freeman' presentations and interviews (these are more like podcasts, but some also include songs) 

The songs start off as rough demos in various playlists here, and are then added to the 'Project Freeman Music Official Releases' playlist once they are finished, recorded and released to the major music platforms. (You can get your own copies of these via my Bandcamp link below, with all proceeds going to support my work and causes).
Therefore the quality of the demos here varies enormously, from old 1990s amateur recordings on cassette tape, to amateur home studio demos, to raw acoustic demos on the road in the camper van, to overdubbed tracks on the move, to more polished finished works etc etc

I have over 200 songs at various stages of production. My aim is to gradually publish my complete catalogue online, so the main thing here is to 'hear how the song goes' not to be fussy about the quality of recordings or performances.
Also, 'Tracks' have not been shared here in any particular order, so more recent Tracks could actually be much older, poorer quality demos and it's not possible to change the order of the Tracks once they have been uploaded, so please bare all this in mind when listening to 'Tracks'. It's probably best to choose a 'Playlist' and go from there :)

If you're looking for the best quality versions of the songs please go straight to the 'Project Freeman Music Official Releases' playlist

Lastly, THANK YOU FOR LISTENING!
Us amateur, unsigned artists don't have big budgets behind us to promote our works so I'm very grateful to you for stopping by my little corner of the internet and checking out what I'm up to ;)
The best gift you can give a song writer is to listen to their creations, so please know that I very much appreciate any plays and or re-posts & shares that you give my 'babies' ;)

Peace, love and freedom
