On April 14, 2018, at Jackpot! Recording Studio, I interviewed Robert Schneider in front of a live audience. Afterwards, he did a short solo set, and then The Minders played – a band both of us had recorded albums for and are friends with. Robert and I first met in 1996, when I interviewed him and The Apples In Stereo for Tape Op #2. Alongside some classic Apples and The Minders albums and other projects he's in, he recorded and produced records for Neutral Milk Hotel [#11] and The Olivia Tremor Control [#17] and co-founded The Elephant 6 Recording Co. (See the wonderful The Elephant 6 Recording Co. documentary that we are both in). Now, with his recently attained Doctorate in mathematics, we sat down in front of a live audience to chat again! Check out the podcast of this conversation as well!

Robert Schneider: A Live Interview

This Center for Historical Research talk features Robert A. Schneider, Professor of History at Indiana University Bloomington. The program is introduced by Professor Sara Butler, Director of the Center for Historical Research. Dr. Schneider is introduced by Professor Elizabeth Bond.

Abstract: Psychologists and advice columnists tell us that anger is not good—it’s not good for us and it’s worse for those around us. But political anger—that is, the collective expression of angry discontent—surely can be, and has been, effective as a tool for asserting grievances and making claims. In any case, whatever its virtues or liabilities, anger seems to be all-pervasive in our contemporary political culture. We are in, according to Pakaj Mishra, an “Age of Anger.”
