BONUS: Vinyl Release of John Van Deusen's With Every Power Wide Awake

John Van Deusen (interviewed in Ep. 67) has just released his album "With Every Power Wide Awake" on vinyl, so we're taking the opportunity to release an bonus episode of a segment of our conversation that didn't make it into the full interview. Also, it's national podcasting day (September), so enjoy the extra podcasting goodness.

You can find Van Deusen's music at: https://iamjohnvandeusen.bandcamp.com/
Also mentioned in the episode is the music of Nathan Peterson, which you can find at: https://nathanpeterson.bandcamp.com

To get a taste of Nathan's music, you can listen to previous PostConsumer interviews here:

Ep 60: A Discussion on Nathan Peterson's Song "Is It A Sin?"

Nathan Peterson returns to the podcast for an in depth discussion of his recent song "Is It a Sin?", which was inspired by a recent PostConsumer article on the song. It's not so much an interview as it is a conversation about the song and how we respond to art that challenges us and perhaps even offends us. This is honestly one of the more interesting episodes of the podcast that I have done. There's a rawness and emotional immediacy to our conversation worth listening in on.

Ep 59: Jeremy Casella's New Album and Kickstarter Campaign

Jeremy Casella is a singer-songwriter from Nashville, Tennessee. He has released four albums over the years and is currently putting on a Kickstarter campaign to fund his fifth album Spirit. Jeremy is an artist I've had the privilege to get to know over the years after meeting him at a Caedmon's Call concert in 2004. Episode 59 features two interviews with him, one from 2014 done right before a house show he did after the release of his album Death in Reverse and the other done this past week on the phone as his kids were home from school in a series of perpetual snow days. Finally, this episode also contains a brief interview (and update) with artist Nathan Peterson, who was on the podcast last fall, where I speak to him about the vinyl release of his EP So Am I. You can stream the episode below.

What do you do with art you "disagree" with or that offends you?

My friend Nathan Peterson released a new single a couple of months ago called "Is It a Sin?"

It's a song I haven't quite known what to do with, both personally and as someone who makes an effort to promote music and art.

Since I am on his promotional street team I got an early link to the song and decided to give it an immediate listen. I knew what was coming because he had told me what the song was about, but...after listening to it once I couldn't bring myself to listen to it anymore. It was too painful, too jarring, and too...well the only word I could think of was "offensive."

Nathan is my friend and he's an artist I've supported for a number of years now. I've interviewed him on my podcast twice and he and his wife even put on a concert in our home, but this new song just wasn't something I could allow myself to promote.

In the very first lines he sings:
"Is it a sin to want to choke the life
Out of the lungs of Jesus Christ"?
