We roll into our 80s hard rock showdown, where we put ACDC's Back in Black, Van Halen's 1984, and Guns N' Roses' Appetite for Destruction under the brightest light we know: track-by-track comparison. Jump meets It's So Easy; Panama squares off with Nightrain; Hot for Teacher tangles with Paradise City. The fun isn't just the score—it's how those matchups rewire your nostalgia.From there, we zoom in on live recordings that changed how we hear legends: Elton John's 1970 trio storm on 17-11-70, and The Doors' final Jim Morrison concert, a difficult night for him by all accounts, that closes on the aptly chosen "The End."Minute with Jimmy unwraps the shockingly modern birth of Little Richard's Tutti Frutti—those opening syllables were a drum part first—and why 1955 still sounds like tomorrow. We close on the Jim Carroll Band's People Who Died, a song that once felt like pure punk adrenaline and now reads like a roll call of lives that shaped us. If you love rock history, live albums, and the way songs become landmarks, you'll feel right at home.Learn Something New orRemember Something OldIf you enjoyed the show, follow, rate, and share it with a friend.

Who'd have thought the views of a pair of opinionated Aussie music fans could have entertained so many for so long? In this episode, we celebrate the artists, music & events we've covered over the last five years. Mick's habit of tapping the table when he gets excited; Jeff's potty-mouth; The origin of the Globite School Bag as a staple of the program. We look at where our listeners live – and how on Earth they find out about us!

To top it all off, the soundtrack for five years of “Mick & The Phatman Talking Music” is awesome. You're going to love it!! See you next year.

The Lumineers are heading out on a world tour in January, 2026, so it feels right to encore our delightful conversation with the band's co-founder, drummer, and piano player Jeremiah Fraites. Jer loves Radiohead and an unexpected side-bar about the infamous 1993 MTV Beach House performance, which TMEP co-host Alex attended as Radiohead's tour manager, nearly hijacked the interview. Fortunately, we got back to Spinal Tap Moment stories and Jer lit us up with tales of the time Elton John gave him a love tap on the Grammy Awards red carpet; what it was like to fly on U2's private 747; and why Alice Cooper thinks The Lumineers need to "go and eat a steak."

Epstein maintained a public account on Spotify, and his playlists — created between roughly 2011 and 2015 — show a strikingly broad and eclectic taste in music. His selections ranged from classical (including Ludwig van Beethoven) to jazz (notably Oscar Peterson), Broadway show tunes, gospel, pop, rock, and even contemporary club-style hits. His playlists featured songs by major artists such as Aerosmith, Led Zeppelin, The Who, The Doors, Elton John, Céline Dion, Billy Joel, Bob Dylan, The Beach Boys, and Pitbull. Beyond music, the account also contained a comedy-album by Louis C.K. — illustrating that Epstein's public streaming activity extended beyond just songs.However, analysts and reporters have pointed out that some songs on Epstein's playlists carry lyrics or themes that — in the context of what's later known about him — read as disturbing or even alarmingly suggestive. For example, his playlists included tracks like Hot for Teacher by Van Halen (a song that has been criticized for its sexualized and somewhat predatory undertones), and My Heart Belongs to Daddy an older jazz number by Oscar Peterson that many interpret as featuring a troubling adult-child dynamic. Observers contend that while a playlist alone doesn't prove intent or wrongdoing, those particular song choices — when viewed with the rest of the evidence in Epstein's history — add a deeply unsettling and ironic dimension to how he publicly presented himself.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

Kristi Noem posted some serious truths and tough words on Monday that take a stance on illegal aliens like no other. It's beautiful and this is her best way to communicate. At the same time, a senator from Ohio has a perfect plan for American citizenship that should be passed as law ASAP. A Trump fan has a great idea for him to end all this gender ideology nonsense. Elton John says Trump could be on of the GOATS of the White House if he does one thing. A listener sends an email in that is just wonderful. In sports, Andy Reid gives up one of the most bizarre quotes ever while former KC quarterback Alex Smith drops truth bombs about this year's team.

Did an early version of Elton John's Saturday Night include the lyric "Saturday night's alright for fighting crosswords"? We don't know for certain, but we do know that today's crossword was an epic battle -- at least for Mike. Jean, as usual, found this to be a more of a minor skirmish.

Synopsis Rock N Roll Archaeology excavates the divergent paths of Elton John and John Lennon in the first half of the 1970s, a period where one man sprinted toward the brightest spotlight on Earth while the other desperately sought an escape. From Elton's star-making coronation at the Troubadour to Lennon's chaotic "Lost Weekend" in Los Angeles, their journeys collide in a New York studio with a high-stakes wager over the song "Whatever Gets You Thru the Night." This is a story of two friends, two paths, and the unforeseen consequences of getting exactly what you wish for, set against the backdrop of the post-Beatles power vacuum and the dizzying heights of 70s superstardom.

It was a great time talking with Jake about his transition from Political Science to music, how he puts a song together, and he had a really good take on when a song is truly finished. He also told us about how doing improv comedy lends itselfto songwriting, and of course, his new album “Idling High” available everywhere! Jake Cassman's music echoes the raw energy of indie rock, the artful melodicism of power pop, and the thoughtful and vulnerable songwriting of the best Americana. And since he began releasing music in 2013, Cassman has embarked on a musical odyssey that has taken him to intimate venues and major stages around the country, drawing in audiences with electric,eclectic performances, and songs that make the intimate seem epic and the political feel personal. This year will see the release of his debut LP, Idling High -- a staggeringly ambitious and disarmingly honest record that showcases Cassman's wry humor, acute observations, and deep compassion. Jake began playing piano at age five, and started writing music soon after. He loved Elton John from an early age -- but when his teacher couldn't show him how to play Green Day songs, he began teaching himself; and when he realized he wanted music to be his career, he left an Ivy League school to pursue it. Since then he has worked as a dueling piano player, musicaltheater composer, improv and sketch comedian, and podcast producer (just to name a few gigs). He is also a published academic and a school music educator, while still finding time to play pickup basketball most weekends and try new beers based on the silliness of their names. Cassman has contributed performances and songs to various political and social justice causes, and his inventive, award-winning music videos bring the stories and ideas from his songs to life in unforgettable ways. His previous project, Drunken Logic, contributed the song and video"What A Beautiful Morning!" to the 2016 anti-Trump compilation 30 Days, 30 Songs alongside R.E.M., Death Cab For Cutie, and more. Now using his own name, Cassman is poised to join acts like Counting Crows, Frank Turner, Sam Fender, and Lucy Dacus whose music is at once introspective and anthemic, and whose singing and writing voice is both timely and timeless.

Show Notes What if Hamlet, but lions. We watched the 1994 classic The Lion King and enjoyed the emotions inherently available in animated faces that simply cannot be duplicated in “live action.” Elton John thought the movie was ruined because his beautiful song was sung by a meerkat, but joke's on him, it was a genius move. Sometimes you gotta have a creepy little guy sing to the main characters to get them to fall in love.

Join me for an inspiring conversation with Laura Nix Gerson, CEO and co-founder of NixGerson Media and host of the VentureF podcast, where she champions women investing in women. Laura's journey from military kid moving across the globe every three years to becoming a pioneer in building communities for women investors is a masterclass in turning connection into catalyst. In this rich conversation, Laura shares her formative years growing up in a military family, living everywhere from Korea to Iran to Germany, and how those constant moves taught her the art of building relationships and creating anchor points in times of change. She reveals the profound impact of her father's Sunday afternoon budget meetings—complete with handmade grids before spreadsheets existed—showing her the importance of allocating dollars across buckets including charity and savings. Laura takes us through her fascinating career evolution: from launching her first nonprofit arts festival in college, to running prestigious art galleries (where she witnessed Elton John casually point at ten pieces of art without asking prices), to becoming one of LA's first "mommy bloggers," to ultimately founding VentureF. Along the way, she discovered a critical gap: brilliant women founders solving real problems but unable to access capital from predominantly male investors who couldn't understand why European baby formula or perinatal nutrition mattered. Most powerfully, Laura discusses why she created VentureF as an aggregation point for women seeking to invest in other women—offering guides, glossaries, and curated communities to help accredited investors (many who don't even realize they qualify) deploy capital aligned with their values. With 66% of wealth transferring to women in the next decade, Laura is ensuring we're prepared to invest it wisely and meaningfully. This episode is essential listening for anyone interested in building wealth through community, understanding alternative investments, or learning how to leverage relationships as your greatest asset. Key Topics: How constant change can become your superpower for building meaningful relationships The power of budget allocation: why dividing your money into buckets (including charity) sets you up for success Why building community and connection has been the through-line of every successful career pivot The hidden barrier to female founders: solving real problems that male investors don't understand or value What the great wealth transfer means for you: how to prepare for when 66% of wealth is in women's hands Where to start as an investor: finding resources, education, and deal flow without feeling overwhelmed How to have productive money conversations with your partner and raise financially literate kids The shift from investing for returns to investing with values: using your capital to create change Connect with Laura online: Website: https://lauranixgerson.com/ https://www.nixgersonmedia.com/ Podcast: https://www.venturef.com/ VentureF Podcast (available on all platforms) The Foundry: Apply at venturef.co to join this invitation-only community for women investors Find more from Syama Bunten: Instagram: @syama.co, @gettingrichpod Website: wealthcatalyst.com Podcast: wealthcatalyst.com/getting-rich-together-podcast Download Syama's Free Resources: wealthcatalyst.com/resources Wealth Catalyst Summit: wealthcatalyst.com/summits Speaking: syamabunten.com Big Delta Capital: www.bigdeltacapital.com
