Welcome to Tempo and the Times, Tempo and the Times, the podcast where music, literature, art, and popular culture collide with news, politics, and business.
It’s a collision born of experience that began on manual typewriters and has been transformed by the digital age. Tempo and the Times is a companion to Bob Gatty's Not Fake News Network, which is the home to blogs, the NFN Radio News podcast, and books like Hijacked Nation-Donald Trump’s Attack on America’s Greatness.
Tempo and the Times' Hosts Bob Gatty and Scott Ramminger bring a long-range perspective and wide swath of experience and opinion to the show. Both began their writing careers at newspapers, worked as part of the Washington DC political machine, and went on to write books, music, and more. Both have made the transition into the digital age, as writers, performers, and producers of a wide range of content.
They now deliver all of that to Tempo and the Times listeners with to-the-point commentary that’s often tinged with offbeat humor. The shows feature guests from the worlds of music, art, politics and technology – some famous, some offbeat, and some who are just hidden gems.
Scott and Bob want look at what’s happening in our seemingly upside-down world. Tempo and the Times is designed to to offer a deep, strange dive into the areas where popular culture, news, politics, and technology are all colliding in a perfect storm. And to examine what this collision means for each of us.
