Suzy Cato is a cornerstone of Kiwi children's entertainment. Her TV shows and podcasts are beloved by children and adults alike – ‘You and Me' in particular holding a special place in the hearts of the audience who grew up with it. It delivered over 2000 episodes since it began in 1993, and is credited as one of the first children's programmes to weave te reo Māori into everyday conversation. And now, 33 years later, Cato has released a brand-new season of the beloved show on YouTube, saying it's needed in an increasingly fast-paced world. “We've had so many parents say, oh I wish there was something like ‘You and Me', that was slow and gentle and conversational, and would provide kids an oasis the way they had as children,” she told Newstalk ZB's Jack Tame. They've released nine new episodes over the last month or so, and Cato says they've already been getting amazing feedback from parents. “So many of our kids are, you know, so used to, to a faster pace,” she said. “We are getting feedback that the programme is still engaging kids, so that they will be zooming around the room and then they'll come to sit down and actually enjoy some interaction with Auntie Suzy.” 33 years is a bit of a gap, but it was easy enough for Cato to get back into the swing of things when making this new season. “We were very, very lucky – Rex Simpson was an amazing creator,” she told Tame Simpson was the executive producer and director behind programmes like ‘What Now', ‘Play School', and of course, ‘You and Me'. “[He] created such good templates,” Cato explained. “So it was easy to use that template, and we didn't have to change a thing basically." Suzy received a little birthday surprise when she came in for the chat. LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Was macht eigentlich ein Stadionsprecher? Ergebnisse durchgeben und Torschützen ansagen? Während die Fußball-WM läuft, hat der Eishockey-Sport im Sommer Pause, so auch der Stadionsprecher der Straubing Tigers. Wer regelmäßig zu den Spielen der Straubing Tigers geht, kennt seine Stimme. Seit fast 30 Jahren begleitet Peter Schnettler die Heimspiele am Mikrofon: als Stadionsprecher, Entertainer und leidenschaftlicher Eishockeyfan. Doch was gehört eigentlich zu diesem Job? Wie steuert man Stimmung, ohne sie zu erzwingen? Und wie bleibt man professionell, wenn man selbst mitfiebert? Im Gespräch mit Christian Jakubetz erzählt Peter Schnettler wie sich diese Rolle verändert hat. Es geht um die Kunst, ein Publikum zu begeistern. Gleichzeitig blickt Schnettler auf seinen ungewöhnlichen Weg vom Fanclub-Gründer über die Fachzeitschrift Eishockey News bis zum Stadionsprecher in der Deutschen Eishockey Liga zurück.

Alan sits down with Broadway producer Brian Anthony Moreland for a candid, high-energy conversation about the realities of commercial theatre. Brian shares the fascinating story of how he caught the theatre bug playing Santa Claus in the third grade , his formative years at a performing arts boarding school , and his early career as a non-union dancer dealing with the exhausting audition grind in New York City. He opens up about the pivotal moment he decided to pivot to producing, starting with a grueling five-and-a-half-year journey to bring Thoughts of a Colored Man to Broadway. Alan and Brian pull back the curtain on the industry's economic pressures, debating Broadway financials, escalating production costs, and what it truly takes to balance commercial viability with meaningful, artistic storytelling. The conversation centers deeply on Brian's extraordinary relationship with the work of August Wilson. He recalls the serendipitous train ride to Pittsburgh that led to him producing the record-breaking revival of The Piano Lesson , and how Denzel Washington personally asked him to lead-produce his next Wilson project. Brian breaks down the profound themes of identity, healing, and family preservation driving his latest production at the Barrymore Theatre, Joe Turner's Come and Gone, sharing delightful insights into working with legendary director Debbie Allen and the joyful, nurturing energy that stars Taraji P. Henson and Cedric the Entertainer bring to the rehearsal room. Finally, Brian takes on the 60-second plot challenge, pitches a classic musical, and reflects on the timeless power of theatre as a space where you can be anything. Brian Anthony Moreland is a transformative Broadway producer dedicated to shaping the contemporary cultural landscape through visionary, inclusive storytelling. Originally from California, he began his career as a performer before transitioning into producing. His impressive Broadway repertoire includes the ground-breaking global hit Othello starring Denzel Washington and Jake Gyllenhaal, the record-breaking revival of August Wilson's The Piano Lesson, The Wiz, The Lifespan of a Fact, Sea Wall / A Life, and The Sound Inside. A respected industry leader, Moreland serves on the Board of Governors of The Broadway League, where he co-chairs the Multicultural Task Force. He also holds leadership roles as a Trustee for Broadway Cares/Equity Fights AIDS, a Trustee of The American Academy of Dramatic Arts, a Board Director for NYC Tourism and Conventions, and is an active member of the Theatre Development Fund (TDF).

The Jay Franze Show: Your backstage pass to the entertainment industry
Ella Langley didn't just have a good ACM Awards night, she turned it into a full-on statement. We're breaking down the 61st Annual Academy of Country Music Awards from Las Vegas with Shania Twain hosting, Cody Johnson grabbing Entertainer of the Year, and a wave of winners that makes you ask what country music is rewarding right now. We talk through the biggest moments, the funniest bits, and the kinds of wins that feel like the format finally caught up to the fans.Then we zoom out into the bigger music industry trends behind the headlines. Why does “traditional country” suddenly feel like a flex again, and why does that make some Nashville decision-makers nervous? We also hit a fast music news run across country and rock, including reunion-tour culture, documentary buzz, and the ongoing fight for artist ownership after Avenged Sevenfold regains rights to key recordings. If you care about master recordings, catalog value, and creative control, you'll want to hear this part.We keep it interactive with our question of the day: what artist or band had you hooked from the first time you heard them? From Ozzy to Journey to Live and a pile of listener answers, it turns into a real-time map of musical first loves. After that, we rip through the country and rock chart countdowns and finish with trivia night chaos as Tiffany tries to redeem herself against Mark.Subscribe so you don't miss the next live hang, share this with a friend who argues about awards shows, and leave us a review.

Wanda Sykes jokes about her favorite part of lockdown in her Netflix special, "I'm An Entertainer".
We're delighted to welcome audience engagement specialist Michael Kent as our guest today. In this episode, Michael speaks with Eric about audience engagement, corporate events, comedy, magic, workplace culture, and the growing role of AI in live experiences. Stay tuned as Michael shares how years of performing around the world shaped his approach to helping companies create meaningful events that bring people together, reduce stress, and strengthen workplace relationships. Michael's Journey Michael has been entertaining people since he was six years old. After discovering magic at Walt Disney World, he became known as "Magic Mike" throughout school and college. He later worked as a marketing director while continuing to perform magic shows on the side. Once the numbers made sense financially, he left his day job and moved into entertainment full-time. Over the last 23 years, he has toured internationally as a comedian and magician, performing in 21 countries and 49 states. Over time, he came to realize that his real role was to engage audiences to help companies connect with their people through experiences that are fun, positive, memorable, and meaningful. A Clear Goal Entertainment should support the broader purpose of an event rather than exist separately from it. Michael believes many companies only hold annual events because they have always done so. But that is not enough. Before planning entertainment, it's essential to define exactly what the event aims to accomplish, as different goals require different approaches. Early Involvement Michael prefers to be included early in the planning process rather than hired at the last minute, as he needs to understand why the company chose the venue, who will attend, whether spouses are included, and what challenges the organization is facing. Audience Engagement Audiences become more engaged when they share experiences. Michael's role is often about helping people who do not know each other feel connected. By bringing people on stage, creating audience participation, and encouraging interaction, he helps attendees build familiarity and trust. That matters because people remember shared experiences long after the event, helping their workplace communication feel more comfortable. Matching Entertainment Style To The Audience After being brought in late to an event, Michael discovered a major language barrier with the audience, as most attendees spoke very little English, forcing him to rely on visual aids rather than his usual interactive comedy style. That experience reinforced how important it is to match the entertainment style to the audience and to include performers early enough in the planning process to allow for proper adaptation. Safe Comedy for Corporate Events Michael always guarantees that his performances will contain nothing objectionable. He avoids political, racial, or offensive material because his goal is to bring people together, not make anyone uncomfortable. For him, even one person feeling alienated at an event matters. While college audiences sometimes expect slightly edgier material, most organizations today simply want clean, trustworthy entertainment that creates a positive shared experience. Stage Fright Michael feels that nervousness before speaking is healthy because it means you care. He always focuses on the mission of the event rather than his own anxiety. Before his performances, he thinks about how to help people relax, reconnect, and enjoy themselves together. Workplace Relationships Matter Workplace friendships can significantly improve productivity and retention. Events give employees a chance to see each other outside their normal work roles, creating a more human connection. He recommends seating arrangements that combine new hires, long-term employees, executives, and people from different departments, as this helps younger employees feel included while allowing experienced staff to serve as mentors and support systems naturally. A Simple Engagement Strategy A simple idea companies can use at events is to have attendees wear color-coded wristbands or name tags linked to their years of service or departments without them initially knowing their meaning, to create curiosity and conversation. Later during the event, the system is explained, and leaders can use it to highlight employee experience levels and connections across the company. Small details like this encourage interaction and help audiences become more engaged. How Michael Views AI and Authenticity Michael believes many people currently feel more stress than opportunity around AI, although he expects that to change. One major problem is that people use AI to bypass authenticity. He has attended company events where executive speeches clearly sounded AI-generated, which immediately reduced the feeling of connection in the room. Michael believes AI should function as a tool rather than replace human communication. At the same time, he expects AI to increase demand for live experiences because people still crave authentic, in-person interaction and shared laughter. Live Events Still Matter Live events provide something that screens and AI cannot fully replace. Hearing hundreds of people laugh together creates a shared emotional experience that people deeply miss in a screen-focused world. Michael believes companies that invest in meaningful in-person experiences will continue to see value in stronger workplace culture, better communication, and improved employee relationships. Michael's Approach to Success Fame has never been Michael's main goal. He prefers to focus on helping people, creating meaningful experiences, and leaving audiences happier than when they arrived. BIO: Michael Kent Michael Kent is an Audience Engagement Specialist. Through more than 2 decades of experience as a Comedy Magician working with corporations, colleges, and military installations, he has mastered the art of one thing: Connecting companies to their people in a way that's good, fun, positive, memorable - but more than that - meaningful. He's been named Entertainer of the Year by Campus Activities Magazine, Magician of the Year by the Association for the Promotion of Campus Activities. He has appeared on the television show Penn & Teller: Fool Us. Michael enhances company events and is passionate about ensuring they have a real-world impact by improving employee retention, reducing absenteeism, promoting a positive corporate culture, and fostering the inspiration that leads to a healthy, profitable organization.

Cedric the Entertainer is on Celebrity Jobber with Jeff Zito this week. What type of work would Cedric be doing if not for being a comedian, actor, TV host, and one of the original Kings of Comedy? Many celebrities will tell you that if not for that one lucky break or meeting, they would have been selling plastic bags door to door like Mark Cuban, or folding t-shirts in a Hawaiian surf shop like Jason Momoa. In other words, they may have been just a jobber. Thanks for listening. Please rate, review, and subscribe to the Celebrity Jobber with Jeff Zito wherever you pod.

The Jay Franze Show: Your backstage pass to the entertainment industry
The ACM Awards are coming, and we're not treating it like background noise. We lay out what to expect from the show in Las Vegas, how to watch on Amazon Prime, and what it means that Shania Twain is hosting for the first time. Then we make our ACM predictions with zero fluff, debating what “Entertainer of the Year” should actually reward, and why the new-vs-established “rivalry” narrative feels more like marketing than reality. From there we hit the week's music news with an eye for what matters: Morgan Wallen teasing a new era, Luke Combs setting huge concert attendance records, and the constant push toward genre blending across country, rock, and everything in between. We also talk about why certain artists thrive right now through touring, streaming, and fan engagement, and how that shifts the industry's gatekeeping. Then we dive into our question of the day: who is the best drummer of all time? We explain what to listen for as a non-drummer, read listener picks, and argue our way to a final ranking that's guaranteed to spark comments. We wrap with charts, birthdays, and a mailbag packed with practical music industry advice, including what to do after a TikTok blow-up, streams vs ticket sales, and how to handle gear failure in a high-pressure studio session. Subscribe for more, share this with a friend who will argue with our drummer list, and leave a review with your pick for best drummer of all time.Episode LinksJim Cristaldi: https://jayfranze.com/episode27/Bob Bullock: https://jayfranze.com/episode28/Dalila Mya: https://jayfranze.com/episode102/Mark Badolato: https://jayfranze.com/episode140/Stephanie Rabus: https://jayfranze.com/episode149/Send us Fan MailSupport the showLinksJay Franze: https://jayfranze.com/JFS Countdowns/Playlists: https://jayfranze.com/playlists/ContactContact: https://jayfranze.com/contact/SocialsInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/jayfranzeTikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@jayfranzeX: https://x.com/jayfranzeYouTube: https://youtube.com/@jayfranzeServicesServices: https://jayfranze.com/services/BooksBooks: https://jayfranze.com/books/MerchandiseMerchandise: https://jayfranze.com/merchandise/SupportSupport: https://jayfranze.com/support/Sponsor the Show: https://jayfranze.com/sponsor/

Volodymyr Zelenskyy and the Evolution of Ukrainian IdentityVolodymyr Zelenskyy, a Russian-speaking Jewish entertainer and businessman, represents a shift toward a civic Ukrainian identity rather than an ethnic one. His 2019 election victory was rooted in a desire for an outsider to fix the failing political system and find a path to peace with Moscow. Because of his background, Zelenskyy initially believed he could negotiate directly with Putin. His presidency highlights that being Ukrainian is now defined by a commitment to the state rather than language or religion, directly contradicting Putin's "one people" myth. Guest: Professor Eugene Finkel. (6/8)1890

"Did I do that?" Yes, in fact, he did. After a successful career as a writer on hit sitcoms like "Mork and Mindy," "The Nanny," and "Married with Children," podcast guest Alan Eisenstock managed to step from television writing rooms and reinvent himself as one of the publishing industry's most sought-after collaborators. His most recent books include New York Times best-selling memoir Life's Too Short, written with Darius Rucker; Hang Time: My Life in Basketball, with NBA legend Elgin Baylor; the crime novel Flipping Boxcars, with Cedric the Entertainer; and the just-published memoir Arsenio, with comedian and pioneering talk show host Arsenio Hall—an immediate New York Times best-seller. "It was great, it was lucrative," he writes of his television career, which included a memorable turn behind the scenes of the ABC sitcom "Family Ties," where he came up with one of the most famous catch-phrases in television history—delivered in almost every episode by the show's breakout character Urkel, played by Jaleel White. "But I longed to return to my first love, writing prose, seeing my words in print, full-time." Join us for a conversation on what it takes for a writer to leap from the top of the Nielsen ratings to the New Releases table at the local bookstore, and to give enduring voice to some of our leading artists, athletes, newsmakers, and influencers.

From the Patriot Mobile studio powered by E|Spaces, the guys dive into a packed episode of Try That In A Small Town. They kick things off by reacting to the latest ACM Award nominations: who belongs, who doesn't, and why politics still run the game. Entertainer, Group, Duo, New Artist, Album, Song, Single, and Musical Event of the Year all get the TTIAST treatment, with plenty of opinions on names like Morgan Wallen, Jason Aldean, Luke Combs, Jelly Roll, Cody Johnson, Megan Moroney, Chris Stapleton, Lainey Wilson, Alabama, Zac Brown Band, Parmalee, and more. Kelly shares a huge personal milestone: after interning for Reba's company back in the 90s, he finally lands his first Reba cut on a song written in 2005. That opens up a conversation about prayer, persistence, and whether Christians should pray about career and business. The guys revisit the backstory of “If I Didn't Love You” (Jason Aldean and Carrie Underwood), from losing a duet slot to writing something ultra-specific on a deadline and watching it connect. In the fan-favorite Dip Shitty-its segment, they unload on Masters “pond jumpers,” public bathroom pee etiquette, clapping when servers drop dishes, trash in urinals, rental car abuse, and more everyday behaviors that drive them crazy. They close with a powerful Small Town Hero story from Pauls Valley, Oklahoma, where a principal charged an armed student, took a bullet, and likely saved lives. It's exactly the kind of “try that in a small town” courage the show was built to highlight. If you like country music, songwriting war stories, small town grit, and unfiltered opinions, this one delivers from front to back.
