Brainwaves – February 13, 2024 – Home
Written by Brian Blum on 11/02/2024
When I recorded this week’s episode, it was a dark period in world history with war, hijackings, and – for those of us living here in Israel – the horrific kidnappings of hundreds of our citizens. It is my sincere hope that when this episode airs – either now or at some future date – some semblance of peace will have returned to the Middle East and the world at large.
But in the meantime, I’ve got a special show about the longing for home. Whether that’s people literally ripped from their homes or more old-fashioned sentiments – a spouse waiting for their partner at home, explorations of what home even means.
Music from Lola Marsh, Skylar Grey, Moonshine, the Head and the Heart, Aviv Geffen, Teenage Fanclub, Clark Kent, Old Man River, Yo La Tenga, Snow Patrol, the Flaming Lips and more.
Wherever you are, it’s time to come home.
