Get that top lip curled, bleach your locks and prepare yourself for some sneering, swaggering rock n roll. Kev's seen Billy live. Corey hasn't. Thankfully, Mony Mony isn't on this album, so Kev doesn't have to listen to the ridiculous Canadian response to the chorus lyrics! But will Steve Stevens' guitar stylings tickle Kev's fancy?

An email from the Office of Personnel Management went out to millions of federal employees directing them to document what they accomplished last week. On social media, billionaire Elon Musk warned that "failure to respond will be taken as a resignation" but some agencies are pushing back. Three years ago Russia launched its full-scale invasion of Ukraine. President Trump says he can end the war, which he recently blamed Ukraine for starting. Lt. Gen. H.R. McMaster, who served as Mr. Trump's national security adviser during his first administration, joins "CBS Mornings" to break down the president's approach. A conservative coalition has secured the largest number of seats in Germany's new parliament, while the anti-immigration far-right AfD, backed by Elon Musk, won a historic 20% of the vote.

I don’t think anybody is surprised that once again the monthly new release episode is a two parter. That’s the way this excellent year in music has gone, and will hopefully carry on all the way through December. This week’s episode kicks off with a “friends of the show” series of tracks. There’s the latest in White Rose Motor Oil’s “pre-owned songs” series, along with the monthly releases of new tracks by Rob Moss and Skin-Tight Skin and Rob’s side project Robotom, LTD.  But there’s also the exciting news that fellow RealPunkRadio DJ Greg Lonesome, host of the Rock ‘n’ Roll Manifesto, has a new project called Intrusice Thoughts. As legendary blogger Lord Rutledge wrote on his Faster and Louder blog, “the band’s debut single ‘Daytime Drama’ is a ferocious shot of rockin’ old school punk with a very important message. Greg wrote the lyrics as a reflection of how he felt starting therapy…of course ‘Daytime Drama’ is a dark song, but it ends with a glimmer of hope.”  Along with these great tunes from our pals, there’s a set devoted to the fantastic Jem Records Celebrates Jagger & Richards, along with new music by Buffalo Tom, Memo PST, Ultrabomb, Micah Schnabel, […]

Welcome Sarahlyn Bruck to The TufFish Show, a place to help writers and aspiring authors get out of their own way to leave a legacy by telling the stories they want to share through writing their own books and confidently sharing them with others. The writing process can be tough and the business side can feel scary, but TufFish makes both feel smoother and achievable. Visit https://www.jennifermilius.com/tuffish to learn more. Your first manuscript may not be the first book you publish. In fact, it may be tucked away in a drawer as other pieces happened and made their way to bookshelves; however, this conversation with Sarahlyn Bruck shows how important that first book you write is. We talked about all the lessons she learned from her first piece that's still in a drawer, and how she applied those lessons and experiences to get other stories published. Sarahlyn also shared how she navigated getting her rights reversed for one of her stories.

Crystal Carson originally joined us way back for Episode #15, our very first ever Holidays Gone Good. In that episode, you got to hear a portion of her magical holiday story. Now you get to hear the whole thing completely unedited. As we approach our 3rd anniversary, we thought it'd be fun to dive back in and share some of the stories that got left on the cutting room floor. Crystal originally told this story to host Steve Silverman over 30 years ago and it stuck with him. So let's all get our jingle on a lil' early, yes? This is Crystal Carson's full holiday gone good story.

So Laura has landed a babysitting gig. Let's pray for her. Imagine spending more than a few hours cooped up with those clowns? Even Valentin seems like a clown when it comes to spy games. Valentin, if you're the one who kills Victor, we take it all back. And in other news Kristina had some lines! Boy, is she making it hard to take down Sonny. Whatever will Dex do? Also, a nice scene between Alexis and Molly! Great to see Alexis out of her office and behaving like a normal person. And finally, Best Entrance in a Daytime Drama goes to....Tracy! Good to see all of those people speechless. Seriously. Maybe less talking, more quiet introspection? Perhaps Gia and Keisha could take this note also. #generalhospital #generalhospitalpodcast #gh #atableatthetano  #mauricebenard  #kellythiebaud #maurawest #delirious #tshirtgiveaway #barshampoo #daydrinkingwithsethmeyers #hillstreetblues #kinshriner #saveava #nicholaschavez #savediane #stonewallkitchen #hallandoates #superstore #freaksandgeeks #waitingonafriend #memyselfi #freefallin #whosgonnarideyourwildhorses #maneater #whippingpost #colonoscopy #takethenap #alleymills #billylibby #chickadee #fortgorgeous #daydrinkingwithsethandlizzo #marcuscoloma #useastaplegun #riptwitch #ripepiphany #ripsonyaeddy  #waywardchickadee #barshampoo #ripmiffy #lovedogs #justinebateman #brookeshields #neilgaiman #dnice #cq #deborahcox #malcolmjamalwarner

Tony Award winner Tonya Pinkins thrives by learning and listening. An actress who's gone from Jelly's Last Jam to Caroline or Change on Broadway to TV roles including her 20 year run as 'Livia' on All My Children, she's reached a place in her life where she's comfortable with who she is and yet she continues to still strive to evolve as an artist and as a person. She's the guiding force - literally she wrote, produced, directed, acted, and cooked too - for and behind her horror feature film, Red Pill. We talk the good of wearing multiple hats, spending time with people who don't share our political views, playing a love triangle where no one has sex with each other, and why everyone deserves one good scare just in time for Halloween.

Harvey Brownstone conducts an in-depth interview with Eric Braeden, Legendary Star of “The Young and the Restless”, Author, “I'll Be Damned: How My Young and Restless Life Led me to America's #1 Daytime Drama” About Harvey's guest: Today's special guest, Eric Braeden, is a legendary actor, athlete and humanitarian who's best known for playing the invincible Victor Newman for 42 years on the #1 daytime drama series of all time, “The Young & The Restless”.   He first came to our attention as Captain Hans Dietrich in “The Rat Patrol”, and as Dr. Charles Forbin in “Colossus: The Forbin Project”.  And who can ever forget him as John Jacob Astor in “Titanic”, or my favourite, Reese Paxton in “The Man Who Came Back”.    In 2017 he published a highly compelling book entitled, “I'll Be Damned:  How My Young and Restless Life Led me to America's #1 Daytime Drama.”   The book chronicles his amazing journey as a youngster in postwar Germany, to his struggles as a young actor in Hollywood, constantly being typecast in one-dimensional roles playing Nazi officers and bad guys and coming to terms with the realization of the devastating crimes against humanity committed by the Nazi regime.   This inspirational man has dedicated himself to atoning on behalf of Germany, and to finding meaningful ways to advance the relationship between Americans, Germans and the Jewish Community.   He's won 3 Soap Opera Digest Awards, a Daytime Emmy Award, a People's Choice Award, and he has a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.  He's been honoured in Monte Carlo, Italy, France, Germany, and he received a humanitarian award by the government of Israel. For more interviews and podcasts go to: https://www.harveybrownstoneinterviews.com/ https://www.ericbraeden.com/https://www.facebook.com/officialericbraedenhttps://www.instagram.com/ericbraedengudegast/https://www.tiktok.com/@ericbraedenhttps://mobile.twitter.com/ebraeden #EricBraeden  #Y&R  #harveybrownstoneinterviews

Join us as we discuss the goings on of last week's episodes of Days of Our Lives. Highlights will include what "befell" Tripp, is the Devil really gone?, where were all the cops that were supposedly surrounding St Lukes yet when Eric ended up having to call 911 there was no one around outside surrounding St Lukes?, how cute were Kaman that they matched outfits? (ans: v cute),  OH and THE GHOST OF BO BRADY SHOWED UP TO SAVE HIS GRANDSON AND NAMESAKE plus many other compelling and highly important topics will be addressed, questions posed and some even potentially answered.

Les, Kurt, and Jason are back and ready to talk about some Blac Chyna drama, some Will Smith / Chris Rock / Jada Pinkett-Smith Oscars drama, and the Hallmark movie A Little Daytime Drama. Before you watch the movie, you should seriously go look up clips of the early 90's talk show Attitudes to really soak in some peak Linda Dano and Nancy Glass (or look up clips from SNL of Nora Dunn and Jan Hooks). Then, you'll be primed for this soap opera-set movie that has a questionable understanding of Los Angeles and Hollywood geography, how many pages of script a soap can film in a day, and how a dog's reaction means that the characters have been… intimate. If this movie isn't for you, you can always look at the content on PosthumusPorn.com.    Facebook : lifetimeofhallmark Instagram : lifetimeofhallmarkpodcast Theme song generously donated by purple-planet.com

On the day Scott Sickles and I recorded his 'Tales of the 2SLGBTQ+' interview, he had just received news of yet another Writers Guild of America Awards nomination for his writing on 'General Hospital'. That day was also the 10 year anniversary of the last episode for 'One Life to Live' which was another show he had a hand in writing.In addition to accomplished writing on ABC Daytime television/Soap Operas, we meant to explore more of his own life being a gay, neurodivergent, mixed-race Korean writer, but the news of the day caused us to focus on One Life to Live/General Hospital most of all. I have always loved GH . . . the Robin/Stone storyline from the 90s! BJs heart! The Mob Wars!If you are a fan of One Life to Live, General Hospital, how one writes for a Daytime Drama show plus many more stories with that then this is an episode for you! Plus, if you know Scott, you already love him and this gives you a little bit extra time with him.We are going to get together to record more because the time spent together chatting was great.www.scottcsickles.comSupport the show (https://www.buymeacoffee.com/TalesLGBTQ+)

What's good about...CANCER? Crystal Carson is going to tell us what - and how - she found her good. She's a wife, a mother, a daughter, a sister - she's also an actor and an acting coach - and she's living with stage 3 breast cancer. She's lived the dark part, now she's ready to share the light, the good she's discovered within others, and most importantly, within herself. Nine out of ten people will deal directly with cancer in their lifetime and that makes finding the positives all the more important.

This week I review the fourth movie of the second wave of the Summer Night series titled "A Little Daytime Drama" starring Jen Lilley and Ryan Paevey. I didn't like this movie. There were several things I had issues with. Too many storylines, there was no flow and the romantic angle was weak. But I do have to say this is the most relatable character Ryan has ever played for Hallmark and love the shoutouts to soap opera tropes. I gave it 2.5 stars.

This week's Days of Our Lives was "all about the couch".. the Horton Couch to be exact. Never has one couch held so much history, kept so many secrets, and still looked as good as the day it was made. This mystery, along with many others, will be explored in this week's podcast. 

I’m so honored and delighted to welcome one of my closest friends whom I truly admire, love, and adore, our friendship spans over three decades., Today, I welcome Emmy Award-winning Actress, Director, Producer, and Author Crystal Chappell.Crystal is currently working on the successful soap opera digital series “Venice”, which is going into its 7th season, She’s also working on, “It girls on the stoop”  and “Beacon hill”. BIO: Chappell's first daytime appearance was as a day player on All My Children in 1989. In a July 2006 interview in industry magazine Soap Opera Digest, Chappell recalled actor Maurice Benard helping her through her first scenes. After a brief run on Santa Barbara in 1990, (she played a classmate of Eden's who died of an ice overdose), Chappell was cast as Dr. Carly Manning Alamain (Katerina von Leuschner) on Days of Our Lives. She portrayed the role from June 1990 to October 1993. Chappell and future husband Michael Sabatino met on Days of Our Lives, where he played villain Lawrence Alamain.Chappell was front-burner for most of her time on the show, first when her character Carly was featured in a romance with lead character Bo Brady (Peter Reckell, Robert Kelker-Kelly), and then in a complex, Byzantine storyline that featured her heretofore unknown secret identity as a European blueblood. The story culminated in a controversial plot that had Carly buried alive by Lawrence's aunt Vivian (Louise Sorel)Chappell's next role was as Maggie Carpenter on One Life to Live from October 1995 through September 1997. The character of Maggie was created for Chappell, and she was again paired with a romantic lead on the show, Max Holden (James DePaiva). Her main storyline revolved around the tension between her burgeoning romantic relationship and her plans to profess vows as a nun. From July 2, 1999 to September 18, 2009, she played complex villainess/anti-heroine Olivia Spencer on Guiding Light. The role of Olivia was initially only intended to be a short-term role, but Chappell's portrayal was so popular she was signed to a contract. She won a Daytime Emmy Award for Outstanding Supporting Actress in a Daytime Drama for her work as Olivia in 2002 and was nominated again in the same category in 2005 and 2006. In 2007, she earned her first nomination in the Outstanding Lead Actress category.
