Send us a textBridget stops by the podcast to discuss music, metaphysics, and much more. ****Bridget Barkan is a chameleon artist who shape-shifts through genre and style with a thread of raw truth and soul, woven into every melody and lyric. A native New Yorker, she has toured the world with pop/glam band Scissor Sisters and has performed with Bright Light Bright Light and Slow Knights. Starring in LGBTQ romantic classic “Walk with Me,” as a singer/songwriter, featured on the original album as well. As a singer, she has also opened for Lady Gaga, and has shared the stage with Drag legends Joey Arias, Murray Hill, and more. She worked closely with Baz Luhrmann as the voice of Misty Holloway on the Netflix show “The Get Down.” Bridget has released singles with the House DJ/producer legend Todd Terry as well as numerous of her own singles. As a child actress, she has appeared in countless commercials and Sesame Street. She has starred in HBO's Everyday People, Sherrybaby, Redacted, God's Pocket, Steven Soderbergh's The Knick and had a recurring role as a one-legged “hooker” on Law & Order: SVU. On stage, Barkan has appeared in numerous productions including Dog Sees God and alongside Lea Michelle in a workshop of Spring Awakening. "Heartbroken Ones” was a practice in healing, purging, and processing what Barkan was going through. “It helped me get through one of the worst moments of my life. It was the acceptance I was singing to myself,” Barkan explains. “All that mattered was releasing the pain that this indiscretion had caused.” Working with producer Austin Bello (Nikki Pope, FNKHOUSER, Goldvein) again who worked on her previous single “Good Things” and singer songwriter Poet Hawkins, she crafted the song in “a more old soul approach at first. But then I kept listening to my friend Natti Vogel's song ‘FAB (Free Ass Bitch),' which also was a healing song, which had a more pop and synth based energy, so we went in that direction, instead. We took parts of a voice memo and created a soundscape which really captured the inner world I was in.” A regular in the NYC artsy pop underground that includes Bright Light Bright Light, Xavier Smith, and John Cameron Mitchell among many others, Bridget is a “Jill of All Trades” on a one woman journey through life, love and loss. She also formerly toured the world with Scissor Sisters and can be seen in their earth-shattering “Let's Have A Kiki” video as one of Ana Matronic's crew. Having inherited her father's knack for songwriting, Bridget's intrinsic artistry and talent is a legacy she proudly carries. *****If you would like to contact the show about being a guest please email us at Dauna@bettertopodcast.comFollow us on Social MediaInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/author_d.m.needom/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/bettertopodcastwithdmneedomAudio production by Rich Zei of Third Ear AudioIntro and Outro music compliments of Fast Suzi©2025 Better To...Podcast with D.

Hello and best wishes for the festive season. My gift to you is a brand new episode of the ‘Art on your sleeve' podcast. In this episode I speak with Paula Benson and Paul West from Form. There's a lot that I could say about this dynamic duo and their extraordinarily diverse pop portfolio, but it's probably easier to let them speak for themselves. So, here's a bit of an introduction lifted directly from their website. In the early 1990's founding partners Paul West and Paula Benson opened the London doors of graphic design and branding studio Form with two core philosophies: to create work we are proud of and to build real value for our clients through our thinking and particular approach to bold and recognisable design. With a background in music, within a few years we had worked with most of the major and indie record companies within the UK. We evolved by taking our passion to a wider range of clients in other sectors whilst winning awards for our creativity and gaining international respect along the way. Three decades later we remain just as enthusiastic about outstanding design and engaging communications – and the power they have to transform our clients' products and services. We are problem solvers and ensure our work connects with the target audience by understanding our client's goals and needs in an ever-changing market place. I spent a fantastic afternoon with Paula and Paul at at their studio, digging through an archive of incredible creativity. We reminisced about the many great artists that they have worked with over the last 30+ years, including Cocteau Twins, East 17, Deuce, 2wo Third3, Everything but the Girl, Scritti Politti, Natalie Imbruglia, Girls Aloud, Depeche Mode and Bright Light Bright Light, and many more. The podcast was recorded whilst quite literally sitting within their personal pop archive, so, at times, things get a bit crinkly and crunchy as we dig out way through parcels and packages filled with decades of delightful design. Hopefully, it doesn't spoil things for you, just try to imagine yourself within the space and go with it!

And since rising to fame has toured and recorded with some of the best names in Pop history, including Cher, Sir Elton John, Erasure and Scissor Sisters.In the episode he talks about the isolation and suffocation growing up in picturesque Wales, despite its beauty. How the Conservative government had abandoned the coal-mining valley in which he was raised. He defends snobbish attacks against Pop music and the pretensions of ‘earnest' tunes that present themselves as unpackaged. And finally makes a plea for the LGBTQ community to better support each other.

In his music, he aims to provide a sense of belonging to his listeners and promote confidence and self-love whilst also dealing with themes of loss, longing and depression.Jxckson's experience shows the importance of representation and self-acceptance in identity formation. He struggled with societal expectations but ultimately found the courage to embrace his true self and share his experiences through his music.

Your mother was a woman with no common sense! We watched Party Girl (1995) with Bright Light Bright Light and we want a career in library science! Parker Posey is iconic as our hero Mary. A killer wardrobe, a perfect party apartment and connections in mid-90's NYC nightlife - she is our spirit animal. OK, she needs to work on the casual racism, shoplifting and narcissism - but every hero needs an arc. Mary's world is filled with club kids, DJs, drag queens and insanely hot street vendors. The New York City of the 90's is gone, but we'll always Party Girl. Re-Code it!

Rod Thomas is Bright Light Bright Light, the sleek one-man band - front person and electronic musician master - whose fanatic instinct for premium pop culture has informed each of the four stealthily sophisticating records he's fashioned. Rod and I will discuss Pride, his music, his Romy & Michele's Tea Dance parties and his new album, Fun City.
What an exciting week you're having!! Or at least you'll be having an exciting week when you find out what I've got in store for you!

You're going to have so much fun listening to it, you will squeal with delight! I also talk a bit about appreciating artwork that hasn't gotten the attention it deserves. YAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAY!!!!!
