Podcast appearances and mentions of David Bowie

From the alien drifter of The Man Who Fell to Earth to the unforgettable Goblin King of Labyrinth, David Bowie built one of the strangest and most fascinating film careers in pop history.In this episode, hosts Laura Gommans and Tom Ooms dive into David Bowie's acting career, exploring how the musician moved through cinema across four decades. They chat about what drew Bowie to the silver screen, why acting became one of his favourite side quests, and the performances that defined his screen presence.From playing Andy Warhol in Basquiat to a perfectly deadpan cameo in Zoolander, they discuss why directors kept casting Bowie, what made him so magnetically strange on camera, and which roles remain the most unforgettable—before tackling the impossible question: who could ever play Bowie in a biopic?Fill out our ⁠survey⁠ and win up to €100 worth of prizes.Get tickets to Sound And Vision: Remembering David Bowie @ LAB111Films Mentioned: The Man Who Fell to Earth (Nicolas Roeg, 1976) Christiane F.

What happens when the next generation walks into the studio and immediately tries to replace the hosts of the number-one morning show in St. Louis?Absolute chaos.In this episode of The Rizzuto Show comedy podcast, Rizz brings his son and a crew of high-school juniors into the studio to show them what actually happens behind the scenes of a radio show. The teens immediately pitch the idea of kicking the hosts off the air and running the show themselves… which, honestly, might've been the boldest business plan we've heard all week.Of course, their pitch for content was… let's say “a work in progress.” The big idea? Talking about movies. Just… movies. No notes, no plan, just vibes.But things get interesting when the show turns into a full-blown Battle of the Generations music trivia game. The kids bring a playlist of songs they swear are huge right now. The adults attempt to identify them without sounding like confused parents asking, “Is this the mumble rap?”Shockingly, the crew does pretty well. They identify artists like Travis Scott and even pull off a miraculous Migos guess that honestly stunned everyone in the room.Then the tables turn.The teenagers have to identify songs from the Rizz Show era — and suddenly they're facing Nirvana, Britney Spears, Snoop Dogg, Blink-182, OutKast, and Green Day. Turns out the kids know way more about older music than anyone expected… which leads to one of the most surprisingly competitive music trivia battles the studio has seen.Along the way the teens roast the hosts about their age, the crew debates what actually counts as “old,” and the entire room realizes that modern playlists now include everything from David Bowie to modern hip-hop.Basically: teenagers walked into the studio thinking they were going to take over the show… and left with Pointfest tickets and a slightly higher opinion of 90s music.This episode of the comedy podcast is packed with generational roasting, music trivia chaos, and proof that the kids might actually be alright.If you've ever argued about music with someone 20 years younger (or older) than you, this episode will feel very familiar.And slightly humbling.Enjoy this episode of The Rizzuto Show comedy podcast, where the kids may not run the studio yet… but they're definitely getting closer.Follow The Rizzuto Show → https://linktr.ee/rizzshow for more from your favorite daily comedy show.Connect with The Rizzuto Show Comedy Podcast online → https://1057thepoint.com/RizzShowHear The Rizz Show daily on the radio at 105.7 The Point | Hubbard Radio in St. Louis, MO.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

In this episode of Prisoners of Rock and Roll, we're diving into 1976 – that wild year where America turned 200 with fireworks, flags, and music exploding everywhere. It is also the year where Ryan and I were born.  And the music world celebrated us joining the party by releasing Hotel California from the Eagles, Stevie Wonder's Songs in the Key of Life, and Boston's Debut Album. David Bowie was The Thin White Duke. Disco was taking over the dance floors, while the Sex Pistols, Ramones, and The Clash were just getting started underground.

In this episode, we take a deep dive into David Bowie's 1980 album Scary Monsters and Super Creeps—the record that bridged his experimental '70s era with the sharp, anxious sound of the '80s.From the fractured art-rock of “Ashes to Ashes” to the jagged energy of “Fashion” and “Scary Monsters (and Super Creeps),” this album captures Bowie at a creative crossroads: confident, confrontational, and completely in control.We break down the album's themes, production, standout tracks, and cultural impact—exploring how Bowie reflected paranoia, identity, and modern life while setting the tone for the decade to come.

Every song's got to have a hook - or at least it does if you want it to be popular. A song can have the best vocalists, the best instrumentalists and the best lyrics, but unless it has a great hook, it'll never be all that it can be. And unlike words, voices and music, it's hard to articulate how hooks even work; they hit us on a primal level that can't fully be explained. The most common hook in popular music comes with a punch - for instance, it's often in the chorus, where the song's title is directly or indirectly referenced and the arrangement rides a crescendo. But sometimes a hook is in the verses or the bridge, sometimes it's an instrumental passage like a guitar solo, and sometimes it's a sudden pivot, like a dramatic change in tempo. One-hit wonders frequently find the magic to a good hook only once, while more savvy artists have a knack for hooks. On this week's episode of "How We Heard It," your hosts talk about some of the greatest hooks in modern music history, whether they came from Buddy Holly or Motown, The Who or The Kinks, David Bowie or Cheap Trick, New Wave or disco, Sheryl Crow or Weezer, Kendrick Lamar or Mariah Carey, and Olivia Rodrigo or Taylor Swift.  Have you ever been captivated by a song and you aren't sure why? It was probably the hook.  

In 1997, David Bowie released Earthling, an album deeply influenced by the sound of drum and bass and industrial electronic music. Spending time in Dublin city, Bowie befriended the Quadraphonic collective, who brought the drum and bass sound to the city at venues like The Globe and The Kitchen. This led to a secret concert at The Factory venue in Ringsend. My guest Ray O'Donoghue is now the Night Time Economy Advisor to Dublin City Council, but was then part of Quadraphonic and opened for Bowie on the night.Contributions also come from John Brereton, Director of the DublinBowie Festival.

Lata 90. rzadko wymienia się jako twórczy szczyt w dorobku Davida Bowie. I właśnie dlatego warto się im przyjrzeć! W tym odcinku sprawdzamy, jak od soulowych inspiracji i „Black Tie White Noise” przeszedł do industrialnych eksperymentów, mrocznego „Outside” i drum'n'bassowej energii „Earthling”. To nieustannych poszukiwań – dowód na to, że nawet poza swoją złotą erą Bowie wciąż próbował gonić, a nawet wyprzedzać muzyczny świat.UWAGA: podcast można teraz ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠wspierać w serwisie Patronite!⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Można też ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠POSTAWIĆ NAM KAWĘ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Muzyka: Michał Mierzwafot.

David Bowie, aka David Jones, aka Ziggy Stardust, aka Aladdin Sane, aka The Thin White Duke, aka The Man Who Fell to Earth had a vision of a future where everybody would be androgynous. Maybe the trans movement of today found its initial voice with him back in the ‘70s, when he proclaimed “make way for the homo superior.” Like so many others at the time, I glimpsed this insight that proposed expanding beyond the narrow labels to which I had been assigned. Like an annunciating alien, David Bowie descended upon the earth to spread his message of an evolving species by employing his celestial musicianship and ethereal beauty. His music inspired others, as we will see from the following playlist, as did this ideal that combined rock and roll with science fiction and glamour. Remaining faithful to the promise of his beatific vision, before he died Bowie prepared a final statement to be delivered posthumously: “Lazarus” in which he greeted us from the cosmos: “Look, I'm in heaven…” Even in death he remained eternally loving, and ever hopeful for our advancement.All the Young Dudes (Mott the Hoople)The Man Who Sold the World (Nirvana) / The Man Who Sold The World, 1970Life on Mars (Seu Jorges) / Hunky Dory, 1971Space Oddity (Brandi Carlisle) / David Bowie, 1969Rebel Rebel (Rickie Lee Jones) / Diamond Dogs, 1974Andy Warhol (Stone Temple Pilots) / Hunky Dory, 19715 Years (Cowboy Junkies) / The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders From Mars, 1972Heroes (Peter Gabriel) / Heroes, 1977Under Pressure (Karen O and Willie Nelson) / Hot Space (w/ Queen), 1981Ziggy Stardust (Bauhaus) / The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders From Mars, 1972

Baxie speaks with Dutch author and visual artist Bette Adriaanse (Bette A.). For the second time in less than a year Bette has teamed up with the legendary Brian Eno to produce two separate projects. The first of which to collaborate on the book “What Art Does: An Unfinished Theory”. Their second collaboration is a full multi-media presentation called “Slow Stories”. This is a collection of two short stories that Bette has been developing over the last twenty years. The stories have been set to a stunning musical score composed by Brian Eno—combined with visuals created by both Bette and Eno specifically for this project. “Slow Stories” is set to be released on March 3rd. And Bette talks about all of it as well as about her friendship with Brian—one of music's most legendary producers (Talking Heads, David Bowie, U2, Peter Gabriel, and more!)

Heroes have been a part of American pop culture for decades. We've seen them come to life on the pages of comic books and movie screens, and heard them sung about by some of our favorite musical artists. Songs by David Bowie and Foo Fighters are some of my favorites, but I think Mariah Carey's song about heroes is probably the best one to match up with today's story.

A longstanding mural of David Bowie in downtown Wellington has been replaced with one paying tribute to Fat Freddy's Drop band member Chris Faiumu, who died last year.

For our february episode we finally complete the 70s by discussing our favourite songs of 1974! You can expect lots of prog, much more krautrock than expected (particularly from Tracey), some funk classics, sparkly glam bangers, and most of the members of The Byrds.We've each chosen our 10 favourite songs of the year and sent them over to Colin's wife Helen, who put the playlists together and distributed them so we were each given a playlist of the 20 songs from the other two hosts, along with our own 10. We then ranked the playlists in order of preference and sent them back to Helen, who totalled up the points and worked out the order. She also joined us on the episode to read out the countdown, which we found out as we recorded so all reactions are genuine.Now, admittedly, in parts we're a little bit brutal to some of the songs in the list as we're three separate people with differing music tastes, but please remember that to be in this episode at all the songs have to have been in one of our top 10's of that year.Bands featured in this episode include (In alphabetical order, no spoilers here!) - Kevin Ayers, Big Star, David Bowie, James Brown, Captain Beefheart & The Magic Band, Gene Clark, Cluster, Deep Purple, Brian Eno, Focus, Fred Frith, Harmonia, Keith Hudson, King Crimson, Kiss, Kraftwerk, Lynyrd Skynyrd, Curtis Mayfield, Roger McGuinn, Mike Oldfield, Parliament, Gram Parsons, Pilot, Queen, Roxy Music, The Sensational Alex Harvey Band, Sparks, Steely Dan, Tangerine Dream, & Rick Wakeman.Find all songs in alphabetical order here - https://open.spotify.com/playlist/5DIrU8fLeTxerh4wHJTWDq?si=6e2bfca9066b44e2Find our We Dig Music Pollwinners Party playlist (featuring all of the winning songs up until now) here - https://open.spotify.com/playlist/45zfDHo8zm6VqrvoEQSt3z?si=Ivt0oMj6SmitimvumYfFrQIf you want to listen to megalength playlists of all the songs we've individually picked since we started doing best of the year episodes (which need updating but I plan on doing them over the next few months or so), you can listen to Colin's here – https://open.spotify.com/playlist/5x3Vy5Jry2IxG9JNOtabRT?si=HhcVKRCtRhWCK1KucyrDdgIan's here - https://open.spotify.com/playlist/2H0hnxe6WX50QNQdlfRH5T?si=XmEjnRqISNqDwi30p1uLqAand Tracey's here - https://open.spotify.com/playlist/2p3K0n8dKhjHb2nKBSYnKi?si=7a-cyDvSSuugdV1m5md9NwThe playlist of 20 songs from the other two hosts was scored as usual, our favourite song got 20 points, counting down incrementally to our least favourite which got 1 point. The scoring of our own list of 10 is now slightly more complicated in order to give a truer level of points to our own favourites. So rather than them only being able to score as many points as our 10th favourite in the other list, the points in our own list were distributed as follows -1st place - 20 points2nd place - 18 points3rd place – 16 points4th place – 14 points5th place – 12 points6th place – 9 points7th place – 7 points8th place – 5 points9th place – 3 points10th place -1 pointHosts - Ian Clarke, Colin Jackson-Brown & Tracey BGuest starring Helen Jackson-Brown.Playlist compiling/distributing – Helen Jackson-BrownRecorded/Edited/Mixed/Original Music by Colin Jackson-Brown for We Dig PodcastsThanks to Peter Latimer for help with the scoring system.Part of the We Dig Podcasts network along with Free With This Months Issue & Pick A Disc.Bluesky - https://bsky.app/profile/wedigmusic.bsky.socialInstagram - https://www.instagram.com/wedigmusicpcast/Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/wedigpusicpcast/Find our other episodes & podcasts at www.wedigpodcasts.com

David Gray's White Ladder album remains the biggest selling album in Ireland, ever. He talks to Brendan about that time through the prism of five songs ranging from Madness to David Bowie to John McCormack.

Most musicians dream of stability. Johnny Thirkell built a 50-year career with David Bowie, Paul McCartney, George Michael, and The Who - starting from colliery bands and working men's clubs in the North East. This isn't about talent. It's about the business systems that keep session musicians working for decades while others struggle after a few years. Johnny shares the relationship-building frameworks that get you in the room with major artists, the professional standards that ensure callbacks, and the economic strategies that survive massive industry changes - from the 1970s studio system to today's remote recording reality. Whether you're building a session career or any sustainable music business, the principles are the same: systematic relationship management, clear professional standards, and strategic adaptation to industry shifts. Topics covered: How session musicians actually get hired by major artists The relationship maintenance framework that creates repeat clients over decades Pricing strategies for session work Professional studio standards that ensure callbacks Adapting to 50 years of technology and industry changes Why "Blown It!!" became a book instead of staying as stories Career longevity principles that transfer to independent artists Show Notes Support the Unstarving Musician The Unstarving Musician exists solely through the generosity of its listeners, readers, and viewers.

Just like the opening match on a wrestling show has the important role of setting the tone, the main event has the important role of ending the show on a strong note. Not every wrestler can be a main eventer, but the ones who prove they belong are the ones who stay in that spotlight. The same can be said for the closing track on an album. Not every song works as an album closer, but the ones that do stand the test of time. On this episode, Andrew and returning guest JoJo Remy (Voices of Wrestling) play a selection of their favorite album closers, mostly classics but a few modern ones as well. Artists played include Todd Rundgren, The Raconteurs, The Who, Superorganism, UFO, The Flying Burrito Brothers, Pink Floyd, Muse, David Bowie, and many more. The lights are bright and everybody is listening, because it's time for the main event!Theme song: "Hemispheres" by Silent PartnerBluesky: @MusicoftheMat / @justandrew / @jojorunsAll VOW podcasts, articles, previews, and reviews: VoicesofWrestling.comJoin the VOW Discord to discuss Music of the Mat and other shows/topics: VoicesofWrestling.com/DiscordDonate to Music of the Mat and other VOW podcasts: VoicesofWrestling.com/DonateOur Sponsors:* Sign up and get 10% off at BetterHelp: https://www.betterhelp.comAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

A final album isn't supposed to feel this alive. Blackstar greets us with ominous symbols and then, almost mischievously, turns the lens toward warmth, groove, and human detail. We trace Bowie's late-era reinvention through a razor-sharp Manhattan jazz band, hip‑hop inflections, and lyrics that carry the weight of myth—eyes as portals, solitary candles, bluebirds hovering between a wink and a benediction. The journey moves from the ritual gravity of the title track to the aching candor of Lazarus, where heaven's distance meets the drop of a phone and the thrum of a bass that sounds like memory learning to breathe.We talk about why Bowie's personas were tools, not disguises: ways to make new space without asking permission. That same spirit shapes Blackstar's sonic palette—horns that cut, drums that keep time like clocks, and harmonies that hint at older Bowies without getting stuck in nostalgia. Sue (Or in a Season of Crime) sharpens the debate with lyrics that disturb and arrangements that stun, proof that beauty can interrogate darkness instead of decorating it. Girl Loves Me plays with slang and glossolalia, bending time until “Where the f— did Monday go?” feels less like a question and more like a diagnosis of our attention economy.Then there's Dollar Days, a soft reckoning with exile, roots, and the stories fame can't finish. It leads to I Can't Give Everything Away, a line that reads as boundary and blessing. After decades of giving more than we had a right to expect, Bowie keeps a private room intact—and the band carries that choice with understated grace. Across the episode, we unpack the music, the symbols, and the choices that turned a goodbye into a practice: collaborate deeply, compress what matters, and let the unsayable remain luminous.If this conversation resonates, follow the show, share it with a friend who loves Bowie, and drop your top three Blackstar tracks in a review—we'll read our favorites on a future episode.Send a textSupport the show

Chameleon: That's long been the word used to describe David Bowie, pop music's shapeshifting extraterrestrial.

He drifted in and out of the spotlight, and on and off the charts, before one final chart-topping farewell 10 years ago this month.Join Chris Molanphy as he takes us from station to station across the chart career of David Bowie, on a journey from Starman to Blackstar.Get more Hit Parade with Slate Plus!
