Tony Orlando presents an extensive tribute to Barry Mann, whom he celebrates as the "miracle man" of American popular music. The program serves a dual purpose: it honors Mann's legendary career as a prolific songwriter behind classics like "You've Lost That Lovin' Feeling" and "On Broadway," while also championing his overlooked talent as a vocalist and performer. Orlando structures the show around a unique "experiment" where he plays original demos—Mann's raw, initial recordings—alongside the famous hits they eventually became for stars like Dolly Parton and James Ingram. Through a heartfelt interview with Mann and testimonials from producer Brooks Arthur, the broadcast highlights the collaborative partnership between Mann and his wife, lyricist Cynthia Weil, framing their work as the enduring soundtrack of American life.

Sagan um Galdrakarlinn í OZ byggir á samnefndri bók Frank Baums sem öðlaðist nýtt líf með frægri kvikmynd frá 1939 þar sem Judy Garland fór með hlutverk Dóróteu. Síðan þá hafa óteljandi útgáfur litið dagsins ljós, bæði á sviði og á hvíta tjaldinu og ekkert lát virðist vera á vinsældum söngleiksins. Þar spillir ekki fyrir tónlistin með ógleymanlegum lögum á borð við Somewhere Over the Rainbow. Sýningin Galdrakarlinn í Oz verður frumsýnd í Borgarleikhúsinu á laugardaginn. Hlutverk Dóróteu í þetta sinn er í höndum Þóreyjar Birgisdóttur. Þórey kom í þáttinn ásamt Björgvini Franz Gíslasyni, en hann leikur Tinkarlinn. Um helgina fer fram árleg talning á garðfuglum á vegum Fuglaverndar. Tilgangurinn er að safna langtímaupplýsingum til þess að m.a. að fylgjast með hugsanlegum breytingum í fjölda og tegundasamsetningu. Vala Friðriksdóttir líffræðingur og félagi í Fuglavernd kom til okkar í dag og sagði okkur frá því hvernig þetta fer fram og gaf góð ráð fyrir þau sem vilja taka þátt í talningunni og fyrir þau sem vilja fóðra fugla í sínum görðum. Svo voru það mannlegu samskiptin með Valdimari Þór Svavarssyni ráðgjafa, í þetta sinn talaði hann um samskipti á vinnustað, en þau geta svo sannarlega verið flókin og ýmislegt sem hafa má í huga.

For many people quietly navigating divorce season, one question lingers beneath the surface: Is this just a rough season, or is this relationship truly over? In this powerful and deeply honest episode of Divorce & Beyond, Susan Guthrie sits down with renowned psychotherapist Dr. Jenn Mann to explore how to tell the difference, and why clarity, not guilt, is often the most caring path forward. Inspired by Dr. Jenn's widely shared insight, “Not every relationship is meant to be saved,” this conversation goes far beyond the familiar stay-or-leave debate. Together, Susan and Dr. Jenn examine how therapy can sometimes help repair a marriage and other times provide the clarity needed to trust yourself enough to let go. They discuss the emotional cost of staying too long, the deal breakers people often rationalize away, and why ending a marriage can be an act of courage and strength rather than failure. This is a compassionate, nuanced conversation for anyone questioning what comes next. What You'll Learn in This Episode How to tell the difference between a rough season and a relationship that has truly run its course Why therapy is not always about fixing the marriage, but often about gaining clarity The deal breakers people ignore for years, including emotional unavailability and refusal to seek help Why “staying for the kids” is far more complex than it sounds and what children actually absorb How leaving a marriage can build confidence, resilience, and deeper self-trust About the Guest Dr. Jenn Mann is one of the most widely recognized psychotherapists in the country, with nearly three decades of clinical experience as a licensed Marriage, Family, and Child Therapist (LMFT). She is best known as the longtime host and therapist on VH1's hit series Couples Therapy with Dr. Jenn and Family Therapy with Dr. Jenn, and has appeared as a trusted expert on hundreds of television programs, including The Today Show, Dr. Oz, The Wendy Williams Show, The Doctors, Steve Harvey, Entertainment Tonight, Access Hollywood, and Jimmy Kimmel Live. Dr. Jenn is the author of multiple bestselling books, including The Relationship Fix, SuperBaby, and The A to Z Guide to Raising Happy Confident Kids, which have collectively spent weeks on national bestseller lists. She is also the co-author of the children's book Rockin' Babies, written with her mother, Grammy-award-winning songwriter Cynthia Weil. In addition to her television and publishing work, Dr. Jenn hosted The Dr. Jenn Show on SiriusXM for five years and has contributed award-winning writing to national parenting and family publications. She lives in Beverly Hills, California, with her partner and twin daughters.

Along the way, we look at the film's memorable songs by Barry Mann and Cynthia Weil, Hans Zimmer's rousing score, and the challenges of filming on a full-size gimbaled ship set without sending the entire cast to the sick bay.We also share our memories of the movie's 90s marketing, its reception, and why it remains such a fun retelling of a literary classic.00:00 Welcome to 90s Disney Podcast01:35 Introduction to Muppet Treasure Island02:10 Muppet Treasure Island Release and Reception04:14 Casting and Character Insights11:43 Behind the Scenes and Production Details28:17 Music and Score of Muppet Treasure Island32:20 Final Thoughts and Reflections32:31 Nostalgic Memories of Watching Movies in Theaters33:25 Ranking the Muppet Movies35:23 Imagining New Muppet Movie Adaptations38:16 Comedic Highlights and Memorable Scenes46:18 Behind the Scenes and Fun Trivia51:04 Legacy and Reception of Muppet Treasure Island55:24 Listener Feedback and Final ThoughtsLinks & References:D23 – Muppet Treasure Island Did You Know?Muppet Mindset – Celebrating 20 Years of Muppet Treasure IslandVariety – Treasure Pic Charted for MuppetsOfficial Trailer on YouTubeFollow UsBlue SkyTwitter/XFacebookThreadsInstagramEmail us at 90sDisneyPodcast@gmail.com!

DOUBLE TROUBLE: CINDY LAUPER AND MILEY CYRUSTwo towering, Olympian female voices, from different generations, aligning here to honestly testify about their love damaged hearts. They describe world's of hurt, confusion, and finally, triumph in the face of loss. Miley Cyrus “Heart of Glass”I love Miley Cyrus - not only because she carries the flag of peace, love, and musical tradition with her Happy Hippie Foundation, and, at the same time, continues to reinvent herself and confound expectations, but because she's one of the most captivating singers America has ever produced. Here she isn't channelling Debbie Harry's Blondie anthem, so much as honoring the past, and goosing the disco chestnut with rock n roll hydrogen. Displaying the vocal power of a roaring jet plane, Miley conveys a super sonic vibration alongside the mournful cry of an injured wolf. Before I ever saw her, I auditioned for her Disney show, Hannah Montana. I'm glad I didn't get that job, because the Miley that I was finally introduced to was not a preternaturally talented moppet, but it was The Wrecking Ball, the Can't Stop Won't Stop girl - the irresistible force for all that's forward looking in this society, and at the same time Dolly Parton's God daughter. What a combo!Cyndi Lauper “I'm Gonna Be Strong”When Cyndi Lauper emerged from the depths of Queens (my home ground), wearing orange hair and thrift store swag, singing about how Girls just wanna have fun, and mugging on MTV besides Captain Lou Albano, the wrestler, I loved her kookiness, but I was sure that she was not gonna be around that long. Boy, was I wrong. She demonstrated her amazing writing and vocal chops in all genres, spoke her mind faithfully about human rights, and in short order became a feminist icon. She has even scored big as a Broadway composer with the sensational Kinky Boots.For over 40 years she has dominated our national consciousness, and this year, as she makes what she claims is her farewell tour, she continues to represent unwavering notions of integrity, self-respect, and professionalism with undeniable power.Here she is reviving the 1964,  Gene Pitney hit composed by Barry Mann and Cynthia Weil, with a gut wrenching, operatic dynamism that leaves me speechless.

Grunnþörf okkar í barnæsku eru að tengjast tilfinningaböndum við foreldra og/eða ummönnunaraðila. Þannig fáum við þörfinni fyrir kærleika, öryggi og vernd mætt. En ef það verður tengslaröskun, tengslavandi, vegna vanrækslu, misalvarlegrar, þá geta afleiðingarnar og vandinn þróast og haft áhrif á allt nærumhverfi okkar, sérstaklega ef við fáum ekki hjálp við að vinna úr þeirri reynslu. Jóhanna Jóhannesdóttir, félagsráðgjafi, MA og fjölskyldufræðingur, var hjá okkur í dag og hún fræddi okkur um þetta en hún kennir einmitt á námskeiði sem kallast Fjöláfalla- og tengslavandi hjá börnum frá 11-16 ára hjá Endurmenntun HÍ. Breytingaskeiðið er vissulega áskorun fyrir margar konur en það er engin ástæða til þess að þjást í hljóði og reyna að þrauka. Afleiðingarnar geta verið margvíslegar og það er mjög breytilegt hvenær breytingaskeiðið hefst hjá konum og hversu langt tímabil það er. Guðrún Arnalds, heildrænn heilsuráðgjafi, hefur starfað við heildræna heilsuráðgjöf í um 30 ár, auk þess að kenna leiðir til að auka líkamsvitund og styrkja tengslin milli hugar og líkama. Guðrún kom í þáttinn í dag og sagði meðal annars frá svefntruflunum, sem eru talsvert algengar á breytingaskeiðinu, en hún býður konum einmitt upp á ókeypis námskeið til að takast á við svefntruflanir. Svo fræddums við um nokkuð sem heitir Alexanderstækni, en með þeirri nálgun er unnið með stöðu höfuðs, háls og hryggjarsúlu, öndun, meðvitund og hreyfingu til þess að vinna gegn óæskilegri spennu í líkamanum, en hún getur haft mikil áhrif á til dæmis stoðkerfi líkamans. Harpa Guðmundsdóttir lærði Alexanderstækni í London á árunum 1996-1999 og einnig lærði hún fæðingarhjálp með þeirri tækni og hún hefur að auki aðstoðað til dæmis leikara og söngvara með þessari tækni.

The event offers free pet adoptions as part of its annual effort to find permanent homes for shelter pets. The program includes music, local vendors, face painting, crafts, and other activities.

This achievement surpasses its previous record of 11 awards from the prior year. Recognized programs include the Mobile Food Distribution initiative, Black History Month exhibit, online donation app, and watershed cleanup aimed at combating water pollution. The county's mobile food program, initially established to address pandemic-related food security challenges, earned the Best in Category Achievement Award. Notably, the Volunteer Gwinnett project distributed over 1.5 million pounds of food to almost 50,000 households in under three years. These accomplishments highlight Gwinnett County's commitment to comprehensive community support. Story 3: homes Since the COVID-19 pandemic, rising real estate values and rents have strained budgets for homebuyers and renters. The U.S. saw a substantial increase in median home sales price, boosted by low interest rates and a strong pandemic economy. While rent prices remained restrained due to renter protections and assistance programs, they accelerated in 2021 and 2022. Despite a 13.2% decline in median home sale price in Q2 2023 from the peak of Q4 2022, housing supply remains critically low, contributing to high competition and prices. The scarcity stems from underinvestment in housing since the Great Recession, which was worsened by high inflation and construction costs. Builder confidence declined for 12 consecutive months in 2022, influenced by these factors. Nationally, Georgia is 10th for building the most new homes. We have opportunities for sponsors to get great engagement on these shows. Call 770.874.3200 for more info. We'll be right back   Break 2:   Slappey.- Tom Wages -  Obits   Story 4: taylor Bill Griese, known as Sweet Baby James, is a performer who travels the country giving solo concerts of James Taylor's iconic songs. Griese, a Nashville resident, has been doing this for about seven years. Despite being a dedicated Taylor fan, Griese's presentation is not a typical tribute band show, and he doesn't attempt to imitate Taylor's appearance or mannerisms. He performs Taylor's songs in his own style, without a visual component, focusing on sharing the music rather than the history of Taylor. Griese's concerts are interactive and include hits like "You've Got a Friend," "Sweet Baby James," and "Fire and Rain." He performs around 45 shows a year and values audience engagement. Sweet Baby James will perform at the Aurora Theatre located at the Lawrenceville Arts Center at 7:30 p.m. Tonight.   Story 5: king   "Beautiful: The Carole King Musical" is a production that tells the story of Carole King's early career and her success as a songwriter before becoming a solo artist. The musical covers her collaboration with songwriting partners like Gerry Goffin, Cynthia Weil, and Barry Mann, and features many of the hit songs she wrote, including "You've Got a Friend," "One Fine Day," and "The Loco-Motion." The musical, which opened on Broadway in 2014 and received Tony and Grammy Awards, is now being presented by the Aurora Theatre in Georgia. The lead role of Carole King is played by Bethany Irby, who also plays the piano during the performance. The show is described as a "jukebox musical" and is expected to resonate with audiences through its nostalgic songs and Carole King's inspiring journey.   Story 6: gbi Retired Deputy Director of Georgia Bureau of Investigation's (GBI) Investigative Division, Scott Dutton, has been appointed as GBI assistant director by Director Chris Hosey. In this role, Dutton will assist in overseeing GBI's investigative, scientific, information, and administrative services for the state. Dutton had a 32-year career with GBI, starting as a special agent in the Thomaston Regional Office and later serving in various roles within the agency, including handling drug enforcement units, being part of the Georgia Information Sharing and Analysis Center (GISAC), and serving as director of public affairs. Dutton's extensive law enforcement background and experience make him a valuable addition to the GBI leadership team.   We'll be back in a moment   Break 3:  ESOG – Ingles 9 - Lawrenceville   Story 7: Sports And now, Leah McGrath, corporate dietician at Ingles markets talks with us about foods that help with swollen feet   ***LEAH***   We'll have final thoughts after this. ****LEAH**** Break 4:  GCPS - Henssler 60 Thanks again for hanging out with us on today's Marietta Daily Journal podcast.

In a June Substack tribute to Cynthia Weil's legacy, Dan Epstein of “Jagged Time Lapse” observed that the “modern pop songbook would be significantly slimmer and less life-affirming without their work”.  The ‘their' referring, of course, to her husband and songwriting partner Barry Mann. From their early Brill Building output which included “Uptown” (The Crystals), “You've Lost That Lovin' Feelin'” (The Righteous Brothers), and “Walking In The Rain” (The Ronettes), to the chart-topping 80s classics of “Don't Know Much” (Linda Ronstadt and Aaron Neville) and “Here You Come Again” (Dolly Parton), Cynthia Weil's contributions to popular music were indeed affirming. This week's Deeper Roots pays due respect to Cynthia, who was married to Barry Mann for almost 62 years, and was lyricist to his music. Their contributions to the sound of rock and roll and pop music in the 1960s rivaled luminaries like Burt Bacharach, Carole King and Neil Diamond.

Gurdip skips Song of the Week this week but hangs around to comment on Julius' pick, the perfectly-themed "A Mess of Blues" from 1960, and Justin selects the quite obscure "Blue River," which was recorded in 1963 but RCA dug up a couple years later for a single release.

1983 - April: Zebra “Zebra”

What the Riff?!?

Zebra is one of the great underrated bands of the 80's.  Randy Jackson (lead vocals, guitars, synthesizers, piano), Felix Hanemann (bass, keyboards, backing vocals) and Guy Gelso (percussion, backing vocals) formed Zebra in 1975 in New Orleans before moving to Long Island.  They were originally a cover band, playing rock with a prog rock bent from groups like Led Zeppelin, Yes, and Jethro Tull.  The band took the name Zebra after seeing a Vogue magazine cover featuring a model riding a zebra.  It would be eight years from their founding before this eponymously named album would be their debut.  Zebra the album would become one of the fastest selling debut albums in Atlantic's catalogue, peaking at number 29.  Jackson's high vocals paired with both acoustic and electric guitars, supplemented with synthesizers and special effects would create a commercial success straddling the hard rock and prog rock genres.Unfortunately, their debut album would also be their high water mark.  Zebra would produce a follow-up album which would hit the charts at number 84, then two more which would not chart.  Zebra took a brief hiatus in the early 90's, but the power trio would get back together and are still touring as of this podcast.Rob brings us this album. Who's Behind the DoorThis single hit number 61 on the Billboard Hot 100, and number 10 on the US Rock charts.  The lyrics question death and what may lie beyond.  It starts with an amazing 12-string acoustic riff and ends with an epic space-aged wall of sound.  Jackson's high tenor parts are prominent.When You Get ThereThis deeper cut takes a humorous approach to infidelity and a one-night stand.  “You wake up in the morning and you're not feeling quite the same.  You feel a gentle hand upon you, but you seem to have forgotten her name.”The La-La Song This song goes back many years to their touring days.  It has a distinctive prog rock feel. Tell Me What You WantIn our minds, this opening track from the album is reminiscent of the Alan Parson's Project or Def Leppard.  Its minor key and angst-filled lyrics depict the struggles a boy has with a girl to whom he gives everything and finds it is not enough.  ENTERTAINMENT TRACK:Maniac by Michael Sembello (from the motion picture “Flashdance”)This dance movie starring Jennifer Beals hit the screen in 1983. STAFF PICKS:Never Gonna Let You Go by Sergio Mendes Bruce starts off the staff picks with a ballad that Rick Beato calls "the most complex pop song of all time."  Originally written in 1982 by Cynthia Weil and Barry Mann and recorded by Dionne Warwick, there are 7 key changes by the time the chorus is reached.  Sergio Mendes would take this song to number 4 on the Billboard Hot 100.Separate Ways (Worlds Apart) by Journey  Brian brings us the first single off the "Frontiers" album.  It is a break-up song written by Jonathan Cain and Steve Perry while they were on the road.  It was inspired by band members going through difficult divorces, and was premiered during the "Escape" tour.  The video...well, it leaves something to be desired.Say What You Will  by FastwayWayne rocks out with a one-hit wonder from their debut self-titled album.  Fastway is a heavy metal band from Britain, and band members have connections to Motorhead and UFO.  The name comes from the combination of guitarist "Fast" Eddie Clarke and bassist Pete Way.  Dave King is on lead, and would move on to the Irish band Flogging Molly.True by Spandau BalletRob's staff pick is a staple of the 80's.  PM Dawn sampled this song, and gave the original a second life.  The lyrics were written as a tribute to Marvin Gaye - "Listen to Marvin all night long.  This is the sound of my soul."  This was the 6th biggest selling single of 1983 and Spandau Ballet's biggest hit. COMEDY TRACK:Intro to Monty Python's The Meaning of LifeThe third Monty Python motion picture “The Meaning of Life” is great just because it had something to offend everyone.

In today's episode we sit down with the lovely Ovation Award Winning Broadway Performer Sara King, who is a fierce survivor of trauma in many forms. We talk about what it was like to play Cynthia Weil on Broadway's Beautiful: The Carole King Musical and Carole seeing the show in full disguise. Outside of her performance career, we learn the heartbreaking story of Sara losing her beloved father to a pulmonary embolism when she was young, her and her siblings watching how her mom navigated the experience and then discovering her mother had a vicious form of cancer, that took her life far too quickly. Following the loss of her parents, many more members of her family began to pass away and the group discusses the effects of compounded grief and how it changes you, for better and worse. Laura and Sara bond over their shared experience of losing so many loved ones, as well as divorce and how it all can build resilience and fortitude, but also give you have a deeper appreciation for life. While the three of them get into some very heavy topics, everyone comes away with a deeper understanding of how hardship can ultimately help you stop and smell the roses! We had such a wonderful time talking to Sara and we know so many people will benefit from hearing her story.

Two brand new, exclusive interviews this week with two of the most legendary songwriters of all time - both members of the Rock & Roll and Songwriters Halls Of Fame - Jeff Barry and Barry Mann. Both are synonymous with the iconic Brill Building era of the 1960's but their evergreen hits continued well into the decades of the 70's, 80's and beyond. The songs written by Jeff (with his then-wife Ellie Greenwich and others) and by Barry (with his wife Cynthia Weill and others) are still heard literally every day all over the world. Jeff tells us all about the iconic hits he wrote like “Da Doo Ron Ron,” “Be My Baby” and “River Deep Mountain High,” as well as his work with Phil Spector, Bert Berns and Norman Lear. Barry shares how he and Cynthia met, winning Grammy's Song of the Year in 1987 for “Somewhere Out There” and creating the most performed songs of the entire 20th century, “You've Lost That Lovin' Feeling.”See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
