Jonathan Cohen (actor) Puns

Hi! I'm Jonathan Cohen, a queer writer, and creator of the Lavender Tavern podcast, an anthology of original queer fairytales.

We launched on Valentine's Day (appropriate!) this year, and you can subscribe and find more information at https://www.lavendertavern.com.

If you'd like some backstory, you can read an interview I did with Discover Pods at: https://discoverpods.com/podcast-spotlight-the-lavender-tavern/

The first season's fairytales are:

• The Unlucky Gambler: In a world where everyone is born with a pair of dice that determines their fate, how can the unluckiest man alive make his way?
• The Demon's Tale: "No, you cannot wish for three more wishes. No, you cannot wish for an infinite number of wishes. And no, I cannot give you the power to grant wishes." Dear human, Akuma the demon has been trapped in a lamp for nearly 1,000 years. Now he's going to tell you HIS side of the story.
• The Scrying Eye: A man that has magically travelled from Bernard's future wants to help him avoid his mistakes to come, but Bernard finds that destiny has a mind of its own.
• A Plague of Reason: Even though magic has been extinct for a century, Edric, an old student wants to convince his professor Sorrel that he's rediscovered it. Sorrel, however, wants to convince Edric that the magic he's performing is all in his mind.
• The Tavern at the End of the World: On the edge of an endless fog, a lonely bartender welcomes a weary traveler. They've each got a tale to tell the other, but who's really telling the truth?
• The Golden Door: Finn can go through any door in the town of Wolfwater except one...because he's too fat to fit through it. But Finn is determined to find out what's behind the golden door. No matter what.
• The Knight and the Dragon: Every town menaced by a dragon could use a knight. Every lonely wizard could also use a knight. What happens to a love affair when the dragon has been defeated?
• Myer's Helping Hand: Meet Myer, an absentminded young mage. Now meet Myer's helping hand, the daemon he creates so that he can find the things he misplaces. Myer is about to discover that giving humanity the ability to search for anything, at any time, can lead to catastrophe.

There are also 13 shorter fairytales that will be released in mid-June in episodes of two 'minisodes.'

I'm currently working on a novel about a floating village full of hundreds of people with amnesia, and a guardian/judge who has to solve the village's fir

In 2012 BDS was calling for musical boycotts. David Renzer (at the time Chairman/CEO of Universal Music Publishing) and Steve Schnur (Music President, Electronic Arts) got together to form a group to help protect their musical artists against BDS harassment called Creative Community for Peace. They soon got: Warner Bros Records, Sony/ATV Publishing, Geffen Records, Atlantic Records, Columbia Records, William Morris Endeavor, Interscope Records, Ultra Records, AEG Presents, Capitol Records, and Amazon to join. They offered 3 services to managers and agents:

• Advice, recommendations and support in monitoring and/or managing the messages on social or in traditional media when their artists were under attack.

• Support, information, and further explanations of various accusations or threats being made.

• Arrangements to meet with – and possibly perform with – Israelis and Palestinians who use music and the art as a bridge to peace; to connect, communicate and better understand each other’s narratives.

Eventually bands started helping band members. Groups like: Bon Jovi, Kanye West, Mariah Carey, One Republic, The Backstreet Boys, Robbie Williams, Justin Timberlake, Elton John, Sir Paul McCartney, Gilberto Gil and Caetano Veloso, alt-J, Chris Brown, Suzanne Vega, Diana Krall, Art Garfunkel, The Rolling Stones, Madonna, Dionne Warwick, Rihanna, Clean Bandit, Martin Garrix, Kygo, Enrique Iglesias, The Chainsmokers, Carlos Vives, Jason Derulo, A$AP Ferg, Ziggy Marley, PUSHA T, Chronixx, David Guetta, Flying Lotus, The Black Eyed Peas, Metallica, Linkin Park, Lady Gaga, Daddy Yankee, Akon, Alicia Keys, Justin Bieber, 30 Seconds to Mars, Julio Iglesias, REM, Barbra Streisand, Kaiser Chiefs, Pet Shop Boys, Guns N’ Roses, Burt Bacharach, Cyndi Lauper, Placebo, Chris Cornell, Alan Parsons, Tony Bennett, Matisyahu, Ron Carter offered their own experiences in how they handled and dealt with BDSer led intimidation and harassment campaigns directly to the groups while allowing Creative Community for Peace to service record companies, managers / agents and band members.

Creative Community for Peace supports dialogue and exchange over cultural boycott:

> We at Creative Community For Peace hope for a peaceful and lasting resolution to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. We believe dialogue, which can be facilitated through the arts and music, is crucial to helping to achieve this goal. The BDS movement — both thr
