get ready to rock

Rock is dead they say. Long live rock.

We don’t do nostalgia. We examine legends.
Rock Talks pairs iconic movies with live conversations.
We'll watch together first. Then explore how the film, the rock genre, and the bands have shaped our culture and our lives.
After the credits roll, we'll stay for an encore.

: your hosts :

Karen Jackie

Karen is obsessed with rock music and how (and why) it became the soundtrack of our lives. She lives for deep lyrics, wicked riffs, and singers who can both belt it out and make you cry. Concept albums make her swoon: Sgt Pepper, Quadrophenia, and Days of Future Passed. Also maybe the biggest grunge fan you'll ever meet.

Ray Hinchcliffe

A lifelong fan of British rock, Ray has a deep knowledge of the stories behind the music. He brings historical context that enriches your appreciation of the artists and songs you love. Ray's personal Mount Rushmore of Rock features The Beatles, The Kinks, Electric Light Orchestra, and Elvis Costello.
