Podcast appearances and mentions of Barbra Streisand

Last week the "How We Heard It" hosts came up with a list of the greatest women singers in modern music, debating Janis Joplin vs. Whitney Houston and Karen Carpenter vs. Barbra Streisand while also finding endless praise for everyone from Aretha Franklin to Linda Ronstadt to Annie Lennox to Billie Eilish. This week, "How We Heard It" pivots to men singers, going back in time to crooners like Frank Sinatra and Bing Crosby and country legends like Hank Williams and George Jones. From there, the hosts come forward, breezing through classic singer-songwriters like Jim Croce and James Taylor, R&B pioneers such as Ray Charles, Marvin Gaye and Stevie Wonder, and all manner of rock singers, including Elvis Presley and Freddie Mercury, while pausing to engage in the inevitable Paul McCartney vs. John Lennon debate. The 1980s and 1990s are represented by the likes of Bruce Springsteen, Prince, Sting, Robert Palmer, Michael Hutchence, Trent Reznor, Vince Gill and Randy Travis. And today's stars are also evaluated, including Post Malone, The Weeknd, Harry Styles, Benson Boone and John Legend. Meanwhile, you might be surprised to find out where many of the others fall into place, including Elton John, Willie Nelson, Michael Jackson and Robert Plant. Especially Robert Plant.

To quote his Bio: “If you've been to a Disney theme park, played a video game, bought a pop album, seen a tv show, commercial or film in the last 20 or 30 years, you've probably heard Tim's voice, or one of his vocal arrangements, delivered by some of the world's best singers.” Six seasons of the show “Glee”, and Lady Gaga's 2017 Super Bowl Halftime show.  He's recently been named music producer for The People's Choice Awards and a new feature film musical.

Royal funeral plans are sparking new drama as reports claim Prince Harry may walk side by side with Prince William, but insiders insist he's still out of the inner circle. Meanwhile, fresh details emerge about Kate Middleton's private life, from school-run WhatsApp groups to playing rounders at kids' parties. Plus, royal crushes revealed (from Charles and Barbra Streisand to Diana and Kevin Costner), a Minnesota woman claims she's Queen Victoria's secret descendant, and palace insiders spill the truth about the Firm's ultimate weapon: silence. When the royals erase you, they do it quietly — and permanently.

Singers often make or break a song. The exceptional ones can lift a bland arrangement into the stratosphere and the mundane ones can sink a great arrangement like a torpedo. This week the "How We Heard It" guys take a look at women vocalists (men singers will come next week), from the clear-voiced vocalists with perfect enunciation to soul singers who use a ragged edge to add personality. Some are belters, some practically whisper, some float into the atmosphere, and some are Bjork. But the differences between artists are pronounced, even in the sub-categories. Find out why Karen Carpenter hits differently than Barbra Streisand, how Tina Turner persevered, what sets Debbie Harry apart, where Sheryl Crow lands and how Billie Eilish factors in. And the guys are not on the same page on many of these vocalists, from Janis Joplin to Joni Mitchell to Kate Bush to Whitney Houston to Mariah Carey. Some of these women only seem better the more you explore their work, while others don't hold up to a closer listen. Your hosts dovetail, dissent and then dovetail again as they explore women singers from today, yesterday and long ago.   

Laurie Fitz with Rick Bernardo visit vocalist, tribute artist (Barbra Streisand, Lady Gaga), voice instructor, teacher, and athlete, Melody Mendis. We hear about the joy she brings to and from each of these life endeavors—and tools she uses to overcome barriers to that kind of inspirational life.

We welcome Moosie Drier, one of the most familiar young faces of 70s and 80s TV and film! Moosie takes us back to a time when child actors were a tight crew who worked and auditioned for roles together, forging friendships, supportive rivalries and shared memories.Alongside fellow child actors like Lance Kerwin, Brad Savage, Ike Eisenmann, and Matthew Layborteaux, Moosie carved out a place in show biz history, beginning with his very first job at age five: dubbing the voice of a tiny actor who was not quite nailing the line in an ice cream commercial. Armed with that professional gravitas, Moosie went on to play Jack Lemmon's step-son in The War Between Men and Women and John Denver's kid in Oh, God! starring George Burns. He then delivered the Kid News For Kids on Laugh-In (as young staff writer Lorne Michaels tucked away the whole fake news idea for what would become Weekend Update!)Moosie spills tea on working with Henry Fonda (Hank liked the View-Master. Hated the kids.) Moosie shares how Barbra Streisand hand picked him for a bit part in Up The Sandbox, and evidently, Moosie is gifted with a face you'd want to serenade. Both John Denver and Reba McEntire picked up guitars and sang to him between scenes.Plus we get some Drier family lore. How his family struck out from Chicago for California in search  of industry opportunities. About the tax hole that welcomed Moosie into adulting. And the strange baby name saga that resulted in a boy named “Moosie.” Today, Moosie continues to connect with his peers through his podcast Pop Culture Retro, where conversations are a blend of interviews, fellow child-actor therapy and catching up over lunch.All that, plus a round of IMDB Roulette which takes us from Kids Incorporated to Family Ties to Judy Garland to The Bob Newhart Show to American Hot Wax! It's a life and career chock full of charm, challenges, and timeless Hollywood moments.And in current media -- Weezy: Sullivan's Crossing on NetflixFritz: The Mark Twain book by Ron ChernowPath Points of Interest:Moosie Drier on WikipediaMoosie Drier on IMDBMoosie Drier on InstagramPop Culture Retro on Apple PodcastsPop Culture Retro on InstagramPop Culture Retro on XPop Culture Retro on YouTubeSullivan's CrossingMark Twain by Ron ChernowMedia PathMedia Path on FacebookMedia Path on InstagramMedia Path on XMedia Path on Bluesky

I have used the word “impressive” more times than I could count when conversing with today's guest, whose passion is to reconnect people to the wisdom of ancestral eating.

He wants to break down the barriers of stigma and convenience that often keep people from embracing these powerful foods.

His hope is to inspire listeners to see that small, intentional changes can have a profound impact on their health and vitality. It's about making health accessible, sustainable, and, most importantly, enjoyable. James Barry's 20 years in the culinary field started as a private chef cooking for celebrities such as Tom Cruise, George Clooney, Gerard Butler, Mariska Hargitay (of Law & Order:SVI fame), Barbra Streisand, and John Cusack.

We're back and it's a quadruple feature! You might know this one best as the 2018 film starring Lady Gaga and Bradley Cooper (who also directed), but "A Star is Born" has been born again and again since its first incarnation in 1937. Janet Gaynor originated the role of Esther Blodgett and, in 1954, Judy Garland made it the singing role we've come to know. We cover some of our favorites from Judy's version before moving on to the darker, edgier, sultrier 1976 film starring Barbra Streisand as the renamed Esther Hoffman. After some time with big ballads and outlaw country we get to the grand finale with Gaga's character, Ally and her big energetic pop tunes. PLUS: Ryan Lichten from Culture Dumps calls in to tell us which version is truly the best!

Memories, lighting the corners of our mind--our annual soundtrack episode, featuring the unforgettable lyrics by the Bergmans and movie themes sung by Barbra Streisand, Tony Bennett, Ray Charles, Sarah Vaughan and many others.

Em is coming in solo and upping the sexy dressing ahead of Michael's return, the visuals really MUST be seen. Em's started promoting her upcoming book ‘Blood, Sweat & Glitter', hence the giant promotional book cover backdrop Em is sitting in front of while filming this ep, its peak Barbra Streisand. Then it's onto the anonymous cry for help from an Emsolator whose weekend in a 5 star hotel in Sydney saw her being humiliated and shamed by the hotel, after she experienced an explosive peri-menopause period whilst asleep in her hotel bed, safe to say Em has a LOT to say.

So look out, as Em and Michael ask you to suggest sexy attire for them to wear in an upcoming episode. Then inspired by Michael's gutter reveal, it's onto the celebs revealing they are secretly fit during the week, like Sam Reid's latest pic as ‘Anne Rice's The Vampire Lestat' for Season 3 of ‘Interview with the Vampire' and the Men's Fitness cover reveal of Sasha Baron Cohen's glow-up for Marvel's ‘Ironheart'. Then Em reveals everything that happened when she went to the pub with her daughters and their friends for the reveal of Triple J's Hottest 100 of Australian Songs, including her favourite moment EVER with The Veronicas. We also get side quests into Em taking to her extensions with vintage tin cutters, New Zealand's view of Australia, Justin Trudeau and Katy Perry having dinner, Barbra Streisand dating Justin's dad, plus Destiny's Child reforming at Beyonce's concert. Then in our Sealed Section, on our premium service Emsolation Extra, Em offers commentary on the World Massage Championships, plus there's an Elio update, a ‘Big Boys' TV series review and hot hunks house cleaning chat too.

What do a fresh ADHD diagnosis, dinosaur sound effects, and unexpected genitals have in common? Apparently, everything. This week, Trevin opens up with a personal dilemma and mental health update that trades dread for clarity—offering an honest look into the wild world of adult ADHD. Meanwhile, Amanda revisits her favorite chaotic segment: children's books with sound effects. Her newest prop? A prehistoric button-masher that may give our infamous donkey book a run for its money. The duo then dives into another chaotic round of Top 5. Trevin counts down the Top 5 Most Bizarre Actor Contract Clauses, featuring high-maintenance Hollywood legends like Vin Diesel, George Clooney, and Barbra Streisand. Amanda counters with a nostalgic trip into her childhood obsession with pharmaceutical ads, ranking Five of the Worst Prescription Drug Recalls in History—because who doesn't love a little mayhem in the medicine cabinet? In story time, Trevin revives the theme of terrible excuses with a fresh petty crime tale set at Tom Husband Leisure Centre in Salford. Will 60-year-old Xin Zhang break a sweat at the gym—or just make things weird in the sauna? Either way, his explanation is... something. Amanda's story starts with the original bad decision: eating the forbidden fruit. But this apple-heavy story leads to a real-life skinny-dipping crime off the coast of Massachusetts, starring Zachary Tomko, Holly O'Neil, and a bold disregard for pants. Apples, nudity, and cold water—what could go wrong? Shockingly, both crimes share an unexpected theme: surprise genitals. From medical revelations to beachside shenanigans, there's no escaping ADHDeez Nuts.

“The problem is that you're trying in the first place.” In this episode, Nick speaks with Carla Ondrasik, a former music publisher turned author and speaker. Carla shares her unique background, including her experience with the Department of Defense and her journey in the music industry. They dive into her philosophy of 'Stop Trying,' emphasizing the importance of mindset and the detrimental effects of the word 'try.' What to listen for: The philosophy of “Stop Trying” is solid, so give it a go Trying often leads to excuses and a lack of accountability Success is not guaranteed by trying, but by doing Motivation follows action, not the other way around Saying no can be more powerful than trying and failing We all have the potential to do what we truly want “If you can just get rid of that word, try, your brain knows the difference, and your actions become different.” The words we use actually send cues to our brain Replacing “I'll try” with “I will” instantly shifts your mindset from uncertainty to ownership When intentions are clear and confident, your actions align more easily with your goals Success starts with self-talk Letting go of “try” creates room for decisive action “Trying is a half-hearted attempt or an effort.” When you “try,” you're not fully in Strong intention makes effort meaningful You're either in or you're not If we only give part of ourselves to something, we learn to expect partial wins or total frustration At some point, you have to stop thinking and start doing About Carla Ondrasik Carla is the creator of the No Try philosophy and author of Stop Trying! The Life-Transforming Power of Trying Less and Doing More. She has spent over two decades sharing her message through research, speaking engagements, mentoring, and writing. A former VP of Creative Writer Development at EMI Music, Carla placed hit songs with legends like Barbra Streisand, Cher, Mariah Carey, Christina Aguilera, and many others, contributing to millions of records sold worldwide. She continues to mentor aspiring musicians while promoting her philosophy to businesses, women's leadership groups, and schools. Carla has two adult children and lives in Southern California with her husband, John Ondrasik (Five for Fighting), and is an avid swimmer. https://carlaondrasik.com https://www.instagram.com/carlaondrasik https://www.facebook.com/carla.ondrasik/ Resources: Interested in starting your own podcast or need help with one you already have? https://themindsetandselfmasteryshow.com/podcasting-services/ Thank you for listening!

In this episode of The Adam Carolla Show, Adam sits down with former DEA agents Chris Feistl and Dave Mitchell to discuss the inner workings of the drug trade and border security. They break down the differences between the Trump and Biden administrations' handling of the U.S.-Mexico border, how cartels launder money, and why they thrive in South America but not in the U.S. The conversation also covers the brutal legacy of Pablo Escobar, the severity of the fentanyl crisis, and whether cartels should be classified as terrorist organizations. Plus, the agents share wild stories from their time in the field and identify the countries hit hardest by drug and human trafficking. In the news, comedian Rudy Pavich joins Adam to unpack current headlines, starting with a revealing media study showing how often CNN and MSNBC referred to the violent riots in Los Angeles as “peaceful protests.” They also cover Minnesota Governor Tim Walz's controversial attempt to link political violence to partisan narratives following the targeted shooting of two Democratic lawmakers. Finally, the team reacts to Barbra Streisand's bizarre public comments about her unclear sexual history with actor Warren Beatty.Then, social media star Haliey Welch—better known as the “Hawk Tuah” girl—stops by the studio to talk about her sudden rise to fame. She reflects on the viral moment that launched her into the spotlight, how her family reacted, and the wave of brand offers that came pouring in. Hailey and Adam rewatch the video that started it all, share a laugh, and talk about her working-class upbringing. She also recounts meeting Shaquille O'Neal and appearing onstage at a Zach Bryan concert—all within days of becoming an internet sensation.

Barbra Streisand has been a huge presence in American entertainment—music, film, and stage—for more than sixty years. She was the youngest person ever to achieve the EGOT, winning Emmy, Grammy, Oscar, and Tony awards by the age of twenty-seven. At eighty-three years old, Streisand is releasing a new album, “The Secret of Life: Partners, Volume 2.” It's a collection of duets featuring Paul McCartney, Bob Dylan, and Seal, along with younger artists including Hozier, Sam Smith, and Ariana Grande. Streisand sat down with David Remnick to talk about the record and the history behind it. Bob Dylan, for one, apparently had a crush on the singer from afar. “We were both nineteen years old in Greenwich Village, never met each other,” Streisand says. “I remember him sending me flowers and writing me a card in different color pencils, like a child's writing, you know. And ‘Would you sing with me?' And I thought, What would I sing with him?” Streisand talks with Remnick about her complicated childhood with her mother, who was jealous of her talent; her dislike of live performance; and the classy way to rebuff a come-on from Marlon Brando. 

We're celebrating our 10th anniversary all year by digging in the vaults to re-present classic episodes with fresh commentary. Today, we're revisiting our 2017 conversation with Jimmy Webb. ABOUT JIMMY WEBBJimmy Webb emerged as a superstar songwriter and arranger in 1967 when two of his songs – The 5th Dimension's “Up, Up and Away” and Glen Campbell's “By the Time I Get to Phoenix” - were among the five nominees for the Grammy's Song of the Year award. He went on to write a string of major hits for Campbell, including “Wichita Lineman,” “Galveston,” "Where's the Playground Susie,” “Honey Come Back,” and many others. Additionally, he penned “MacArthur Park,” which was a hit for a diverse range of artists, including Richard Harris, Waylon Jennings, Tony Bennett, Andy Williams, and Donna Summer; “The Worst That Could Happen,” which was a Top 5 hit for The Brooklyn Bridge; “Didn't We,” which was recorded by Thelma Houston, Frank Sinatra, Diana Ross, and Barbra Streisand; “All I Know,” which became a Top 10 hit for Art Garfunkel; “The Moon's a Harsh Mistress,” which has been recorded by Joe Cocker, Judy Collins, Linda Ronstadt, and Josh Groban; and “If These Walls Could Speak,” which was recorded by Glen Campbell, Amy Grant, Nanci Griffith, and Shawn Colvin. Others who've covered material from the Jimmy Webb songbook include Diana Ross, Dusty Springfield, Nina Simone, The Four Tops, Roberta Flack, The Temptations, The Association, Tom Jones, Dionne Warwick, Cass Elliot, Harry Nilsson, Nancy Wilson, Cher, Bob Dylan, The Everly Brothers, Nick Cave, John Denver, Kenny Rogers, Sheena Easton, David Crosby, Rosemary Clooney, Michael Feinstein, R.E.M., Aimee Mann, America, Aretha Franklin, Isaac Hayes, Peggy Lee, Bette Midler, James Taylor, Carrie Underwood, Dwight Yoakam, and The Highwaymen (consisting of Johnny Cash, Willie Nelson, Waylon Jennings, and Kris Kristofferson), who took Jimmy's song “Highwayman” to #1, earning him a Grammy for Country Song of the Year. As an artist, he has released more than a dozen albums. One of the most celebrated songwriters on the planet, Jimmy is the only individual to win Grammy awards for music, lyrics, and orchestration. He was inducted into the Songwriters Hall of Fame, the Nashville Songwriters Hall of Fame, and the Great American Songbook Hall of Fame. Additionally, he has received ASCAP's Lifetime Achievement Award, the Influential Songwriter Award from the National Music Publishers Association, and the Academy of Country Music's prestigious Poets Award. In 2015 he was named among Rolling Stone magazine's 100 Greatest Songwriters of All Time. Jimmy's memoir, The Cake and the Rain, details his formative years and early career through 1973. It's available now from St. Martin's Press. 

This week, the larger-than-life Jonathan Groff discusses starring in Just In Time, the cabaret-style musical based on the life and music of Bobby Darin.

Plus, Jonathan considers entering his leather era, inspired by another idol, Beyoncé.  Learn about your ad choices: dovetail.prx.org/ad-choices

When the jazz singer Cécile McLorin Salvant was profiled in The New Yorker, Wynton Marsalis described her as the kind of talent who comes along only “once in a generation or two.” Salvant's work is rooted in jazz—in the tradition of Ella Fitzgerald and Sarah Vaughan and Abbey Lincoln—and she has won three Grammy Awards for Best Jazz Vocal Album. But her interests and her repertoire reach across eras and continents. She studied Baroque music and jazz at conservatory, and performs songs in French, Occitan, and Haitian Kreyòl. “I think I have the spirit of a kind of a radio d.j. slash curator,” she tells David Remnick. “It's almost like making a mixtape for someone and only putting deep cuts.” And even when singing the standards, she aims “to find the gems that haven't been sung and sung and sung over and over again.” During a summer tour, she visited the studio at WNYC to perform “Don't Rain on My Parade,” made famous by Barbra Streisand; “Can She Excuse My Wrongs,” by John Dowland, the English composer of the Elizabethan era; and “Moon Song,” an original from Salvant's album “Ghost Song.”This segment originally aired on May 31, 2024.
