Everything And the Kitchen Sink

About Everything And the Kitchen Sink

I am a DIY music podcaster. Started out on a live internet radio show in the UK in 2011. The show is called Everything and the Kitchen Sink because I don't focus on one genre in show. Serious Joe Strummer fan and bandcamp cheerleader.

   EATKS - The Rabbit Hole Discussions #1

   Threads had been a great way to bring back a music community that I once loved on Twitter, and I really enjoyed the music challenges created by people. There are some music challenges that created a need for a deeper dive - I call it a rabbit hole. I was so fascinated with how Dag (the artist behind Fatal Obelisk) took me down a memory lane with his choices for instrumental music. We hear music in so many places /spaces - we don’t make the connections or perhaps take time to make the connections to what we hear, and where it came from. This episode, hopefully, will not be a one-off but will encourage more deep dives/ rabbit-hole discussions with others. Track list Free James Brown (So He Can Run Me Down) - Foetus (https://youtu.be/4XUK327i4IE?si=B74n68wtGpbnk_jj) Powerhouse (cover) - Steroid Maximus (https://jgthirlwell.bandcamp.com/track/powerhouse) Powerhouse (original) Raymond Scott withand his Orchestra (https://youtu.be/6ft60BtJ5sY?si=Dvs2L9XpgOB7vzaY) The Grass Is Quicksand - Fatal Obelisk (https://fatalobelisk.bandcamp.com/track/the-grass-is-quicksand-fatal-obelisks-i-need-to-breathe-remix) Grab Your Cloak Were Going Haunting - Fatal Obelisk (https://fatalobelisk.bandcamp.com/track/grab-your-cloak-were-going-haunting) Headache Relief - Fatal Obelisk (https://on.soundcloud.com/mpZhdylZpKfmjyxDC0) Cursing The One - Monolord (https://monolord.bandcamp.com/track/cursing-the-one) Dag and I had amazing discussions : it required show notes to be added to the website EatKS.com (http://EatKS.com) and my Substack (https://substack.com/@nikkieatks)which has ZERO paywall - I highly recommend you subscribe and maybe follow me there as for the time being, I am no longer on social media platforms* You can feel however you want to feel about Substack, but it has been a great place for me to post my content that is not just podcasts, but opinion pieces with receipts. If we constantly remove ourselves from spaces simply because horrible people profit from it, then why are you still using a cell phone where Congolese are being exploited to mine cobalt (https://www.npr.org/sections/goatsandsoda/2023/02/01/1152893248/red-cobalt-congo-drc-mining-siddharth-kara)? Next episode will be either Do You Bandcamp episode, or a series I am still trying to get off the ground called EatKS- Mixtape. Where you the listener send your playlist with commentary for me to present. I currently have 3 (?) in the queue. It’s different from what you typically expect of EatKS. But in truth, EatKS means Everything AND the Kitchen Sink sooo.... There is a series called from the vault where I pull out old shows from my archives, which are older shows that had been removed from the inter webs. I plan to add more of those. , The episodes include really cool discussions with other music and podcast peeps and of course, the most epic Joe Strummer Specials. Anyway, thank you for listening to the show however you do . Please share the show with your pals, even past episodes! With love and gratitude for your support Nikki xo *exception is mastodon

   Do You Even Bandcamp? Ep.5

   What better way to end 2025 but with a Bandcamp episode! If you are a serious music lover and have not created a Bandcamp fan account, I highly recommend you do so. You can follow artists, record labels, and other music fans. When you follow indie record labels, your inbox will get slammed with new releases. It can be overwhelming to follow more than 5 indie record labels, but I assure you, it is worth it. You will no longer be the music fan stuck in your nostalgia, as it’s a great way to keep up with the music that is out there. The track list with hyperlinks! Your Country Needs You - H.R. Frank (https://hrfrank.bandcamp.com/track/your-country-needs-you-your-kuntry-needs-you) Hella Tight- Jesse Lebourdais (https://jesselebourdais.bandcamp.com/track/hella-tight) Spirit Adapter - YÏN YÏN (https://yinyin.bandcamp.com/track/spirit-adapter) Lonely For You Baby- Sam Dees (https://samdees.bandcamp.com/album/i-need-you-girl-lonely-for-you-baby) I Believe in You - Ladytron (https://ladytron.bandcamp.com/track/i-believe-in-you) The Pit - Soft Moon (https://thesoftmoon.bandcamp.com/album/exister) Teenage Spaceship - Thrashpalace (https://thrashpalace.bandcamp.com/album/go) Too Much Tension - Mystery Lights (https://themysterylights.bandcamp.com/album/too-much-tension) Sun Youth - DATES (https://datess.bandcamp.com/album/dates-self-titled) Her Jazz - Huggy Bear (https://huggybear.bandcamp.com/album/basic-strategies-for-going-out-peel-sessions) Memory - FEATURE (https://featureband.bandcamp.com/album/banishing-ritual) Losing Battle - Adolescents (https://frontierrecords-adolescents.bandcamp.com/album/welcome-to-reality-ep) Someone I Can Talk To - The Limps (https://thelimps.bandcamp.com/album/1979) New to bandcamp?

   There Will Be Clash and Joe Strummer

   There Will Be Clash and Joe Strummer Over the past decade yours truly would often do a Joe Strummer special once or twice a year. I am not sure if I will do any more Joe Strummer specials, there is that possibility but I think I really want to unarchive my older specials so that they can exist. Long time music pals of EatKS Christian D the frontman of Christian D and the Sinners (https://christiand.ca/christian-and-the-sinners) and Adam Sewell frontman of Monster Voodoo Machine, Def Con Sound System (https://www.defconsoundsystem.com/), artist manager and writer joined me derailing conversations about The Clash and Joe Strummer. We only had scratched the surface with talking about Joe Strummer, The Clash when it comes to the albums, the demos, the bootlegs, the boxset, our personal stories about the songs we love, some of the best books to read. We didn’t talk about all the albums, all the bootlegs, all the books or all the boxsets. What I hope that people will get from this is that Clash fans are unique because The Clash was one of the very few bands that could pull pub rock, reggae, first wave ska, dub, rockabilly, and even some new wave music fans. Is there one Clash fan that is right and another Clash fan that is wrong? Listen to the show and you’ll see for yourself that The Clash, and Joe Strummer hit differently for some Clash/Strummer fans. Check out EatKS.com (http://EatKS.com) or my Subtstack Nikki EatKS for the links to the books, and the interviews we talked about in the show. Track List Know Your Rights - The Clash - Combat Rock Straight To Hell - The Clash - Combat Rock Tommy Gun - The Clash - Give Em Enough Rope What’s My Name - The Clash - The Clash (UK version) This Is England - The Clash - Out of Control Demos Love Kills - Joe Strummer - Sid and Nancy Movie V. Thirteen - Big Audio Dynamite (Written by Joe Strummer and Mick Jones) Police On My Back* - The Clash - Sandinista! The Call Up - The Clash - Sandinista!! Washington Bullets - The Clash - Sandinista! Naughty Christmas - Fat Les and Joe Strummer Trash City - Joe Strummer and Latino Rockabilly War Turkish Song of The Damned - Joe Strummer and the Pogues Ramshackle Day Parade - Joe Strummer and the Mescaleros- Streetcore Burning Streets -Joe Strummer and the Mescaleros- Streetcore Arms Aloft - Joe Strummer and the Mescaleros- Streetcore Glue Zombie - The Clash - Out of Control Demos Galleani - The Clash - Out of Control Demos
