Host Jesse Jackson welcomes author and former teacher Sara Goodman-Confino to Set Lusting Bruce to talk Bruce Springsteen, fandom, and fiction. Sara shares her path from 21 years teaching to writing full-time, her Springsteen origin story rooted in hearing “Atlantic City” during a difficult college week, and her family's deep reading culture. She recounts seeing Bruce live (including being pulled onstage in Charlottesville in 2012 with a “Can I dance with Jake?” sign), attending dozens of shows, favorite songs and albums (especially Born to Run and “Backstreets”), and sending Bruce a copy of her novel Don't Forget to Write featuring a brief Bruce cameo. They discuss Sara's focus on humorous, intergenerational stories with strong female characters and “Jewish joy,” including why she writes Jewish characters beyond suffering narratives and how her novels highlight the recentness of women's legal and social limitations. Sara previews upcoming projects, including her June 9 release Off the Record about a young woman in a 1960s newspaper typing pool who uncovers a Cuban spy plot, plus a planned 2027 novel centered on the Beatles' first U.S. concert after Ed Sullivan.

In this episode of the Anglotopia podcast, host Jonathan Thomas speaks with Dan Absher, a lifelong Beatles fan and CEO, about the cultural impact of the Beatles and the insights he has drawn from their success for his upcoming book, 'The Fab Four Pillars of Impact: Building Dynamic Teams the Beatles' Way.' They discuss Dan's early memories of the Beatles, his experiences in Liverpool, and the lessons that modern businesses can learn from the Beatles' journey, including the importance of unity, vision, and adaptability. Links Dan's book — The Fab Four Pillars of Impact: Building Dynamic Teams the Beatles Way (Greenleaf Book Group Press, February 2026) fab4academy.com — Dan's website The Beatles on Ed Sullivan, February 9, 1964 Cliveden (National Trust) Strawberry Fields Forever Friends of Anglotopia Club Takeaways Dan Absher's lifelong passion for the Beatles began at age five. The Beatles' charisma and humor were key to their early success. Ringo's role was essential as the steady drummer of the group. Family traditions often incorporate Beatles music, especially at milestone birthdays. Cliveden, where the Beatles filmed, was a significant experience for Dan. Liverpool has transformed into a vibrant city with a Beatles economy. Freda Kelly provided unique insights into the Beatles' personalities. The Beatles' success was driven by the right people and a catalytic vision. Internal conflicts and differing visions contributed to the Beatles' breakup. The Beatles' legacy continues to influence modern business practices. Soundbites Here are 10 interesting soundbites from the episode: "It wasn't until much later that I started to realize how great of musicians they were too. Right then it was their charisma, their personalities, their humor." — Dan on watching the Ed Sullivan show at age five. "I might have been coerced into picking Ringo because they needed a drummer and not another guitar player. But I fully embraced the Ringo role." — Dan on childhood Beatles roleplay with his brother and cousin. "Every occasion I can think of, particularly in my life, a Beatles song gets played a lot at family outings." — Dan on how the Beatles are woven into his family traditions. "John's vision was to save the world. George's was to save his soul and be close to God. Paul wanted to remain relevant in music his whole life. And Ringo — his vision was, have fun with my buddies." — Dan on how their diverging visions fractured the band. "It sounds absurd to think of the four of them having a strategic planning retreat, but that's what they needed." — Dan on what could have saved the Beatles. "Paul was clinging so hard to try to keep them together. I think that clinging itself had a way of pushing them further apart." — Dan on Paul's role in the breakup. "No one I think is in my tree. He's talking about feeling different and isolated, maybe special." — Dan breaking down why Strawberry Fields Forever is his favorite Beatles song. "The big fight was over who was going to manage the Beatles — Alan Klein or Paul's in-laws. They were all wrong." — Dan on the business conflict that tore them apart. "Each of the four of them had a vote and each of the four of them had veto power of anything they wanted to do." — Dan on how Apple Corps eventually structured their business. "It made me realize life's short. Most people back at the company, they got it handled. They can do it without me." — Dan on how dying on the operating table inspired him to finally write the book.

Bec's back for 2026 and as we're working up an exciting meaty topic we decided to take it a little lighter to start with (kind of!) as Justin & Bec react to the official theatrical trailer for EPiC, then take a look back at a UK-exclusive Camden released in 1975 entitled "The U.S. Male." Featuring a "greatest hits" of sorts from several other prior Camden compilations, this unusual release from within Elvis's lifetime was a gateway into Elvis's music for numerous Brits, but does it cohere and hold up? And can the duo come up with tracklists that better suit the "US Male" theme? For Song of the Week, both hosts highlight gospel numbers, with Bec swinging in with "Somebody Bigger Than You and I" off the "How Great Thou Art Album" which overlaps Elvis's long affection for music originally by Bill Kenny & The Ink Spots and his love of spirituals. Then, Justin tells of the inspirations behind "Peace in the Valley," how Thomas A. Dorsey came to write it, and the world events which led to Elvis's performance of the song on the Ed Sullivan show (and subsequent recording) in 1957.

The rock and roll legend, Billy J. Kramer, grew up in Bootle, a Liverpool suburb.  Upon leaving school, he became a trainee engineer by day and aspiring singer by night, performing under the stage name Billy Kramer. Billy's performances at local rock clubs around Liverpool soon brought him to the attention of the one and only John Lennon.  John urged Brian Epstein to sign Billy to an exclusive management contract.  Billy jumped at the opportunity to become a full-time entertainer.  Soon after, Billy was summoned to Brian's office to find John there waiting for him with the suggestion that he add the “J” to his name to give it a “rock and roll edge”.  From that day forward, Billy has been known as Billy J. Kramer.In March of 1963, Billy was the first person to have a hit record with a Lennon-McCartney song, “Do You Want To Know A Secret,” which was written specially for him by John and Paul and produced by George Martin at Abbey Road Studios even before The Beatles recorded it.Billy toured extensively throughout the UK as the opening act for The Beatles both before and during Beatlemania.  Billy also headlined tours with such greats as Del Shannon, Gene Pitney, and The Everly Brothers.Billy's recordings of the Lennon-McCartney compositions, “Bad To Me” along with “I'll Keep You Satisfied”, “From A Window”, and “I Call Your Name” all became international million sellers.  He also had a smash hit with the Mort Shuman/John Leslie McFarland song, Little Children.  Released as a double sided single, Bad To Me and Little Children have the unique distinction of being the highest entry into the Billboard charts at #8.  That accomplishment has never been equalled.Billy's appearances on the Ed Sullivan show, Shindig, and Hullaballoo secured his place in rock ‘n roll history.  In 1964, Billy performed as part of the legendary T.A.M.I. show along with such artists as James Brown, Chuck Berry, The Beach Boys, Marvin Gaye, The Supremes , Smokey Robinson, The Rolling Stones and many others.To commemorate his 50th anniversary in the music business, Billy recorded and released new material entitled “I Won The Fight”.  Billy recently released his autobiography, “Do You Want To Know A Secret.”Billy continues to record, perform and promote his Storytellers show to international audiences.Please stick around at the end of the show for a really fantastic treat.  Billy has lent us his brand new Christmas song, “Christmas Kinda Feeling…”

In this episode of Audio Talks, host Oisin Lunny welcomes Ted Cohen—the “Godfather of Digital Music”—for a masterclass in how technology, culture, and creativity have shaped the modern music industry. From backstage with the Rolling Stones before their Ed Sullivan debut to pioneering digital deals at EMI, Ted's career is a living history of music's transformation. Together, Oisin and Ted trace the arc from analog to digital, exploring how serendipity, artist development, and a relentless curiosity led Ted to work with legends like Fleetwood Mac, Van Halen, Prince, and The Who. Ted shares candid stories from the road, the boardroom, and the cutting edge of innovation—whether sneaking Mark Zuckerberg and Sean Parker into the Grammys, navigating the Napster wars, or launching Amazon Music before streaming was mainstream. The conversation dives into the evolution from distribution to the attention economy, the rise of AI and creative tools, and the shifting boundaries between consumption and experience. Ted reflects on the lessons learned (and missed) by the industry, the importance of building your “village,” and why kindness is the ultimate long game.

Lie detectors. The Reid Technique. You’ve been listening to us rant about them for nine years. One case, in 1955, was not only the perfect storm of both, but also launched John Reid’s interrogation method into national use, changing criminal justice methods throughout the U.S. into what is now the norm. But the funny thing about the investigation of Nancy Parker’s 1955 murder and the conviction of her husband, Darrel, is that it’s a huge honking cautionary tale of what can go wrong in an investigation. Maureen presents. Rebecca gives the Netflix documentary “Sunday Best,” an NNW review. So, on our ninth anniversary [!!!] check out a really good shooooeeee… [That’s an Ed Sullivan reference, kids, not misplaced ego].

In middle school, Penny Feldman played everything from Ed Sullivan to the Modern Major General to the title role in Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat (as Joseph, not the garment). She and I connected as fellow old souls. Penny and I reminisced and shared our affinity for cinematicstaircases. I also learned of her current profession in a niche corner of the world of gaming. Note: I omitted the “pitch” of the party game I'm creating because it's still in development. My apologies for withholding the premise, but I'm hoping to share soon. - Recorded on 10/11/25.
