Rock N Roll Archaeology

Rock N Roll Archaeology (RNRA) is more than a podcast; it’s an immersive, carefully researched and produced audio documentary. RNRA explores the history of Rock Music, and then goes a step further. We contextualize Rock N Roll; we place it within the cultural, political, and technological landscapes of the late 20th and early 21st centuries. With storytelling, commentary, and a dash of musicology, we explore how music, culture, and technology interact and affect each other—how they ARE each other.

Rock N Roll Archaeology is a music podcast hosted by Unknown Host, with 59 episodes on record and a Required Pod Score of 80. PitchCentric scores this show on Booking Probability, Listen Score, and live audience signals refreshed every 24 hours.

They weren't looking for the news; they were looking for the 23rd century. For Christian Swain and the late Richard Evans, Star Trek wasn't just a space opera—it was a humanist manifesto. It taught us that the future wasn't just about technology, but about the collective power of the "comm...

  <p>Arrival: we begin the show on February 7th, 1964, in the first-class cabin aboard Pan American Airlines Flight 101 from London to New York City.
