As Oscar Season rolls around, Recall This Book looks back to John's 2019 discussion with Columbia University professor Sharon Marcus about The Drama of Celebrity, her tour-de-force account of how stars are born, publicized, and in time devoutly scrapbooked by adoring fans. They tackle a question at least as old as Sarah Bernhardt: who or what makes a star? Rather than crediting star making to the culture industry, to fans, or to star themselves, Sharon makes the case that all three forces together constitute a celebrity creation machine. After discussing her archival work on theatrical scrapbooking in Indiana, Sharon pulls from the vaults a marvelous Hollywood memoir, Brooke Haywood's Haywired. That triggers discussion of the studio system and how its models of celebrity are and are not with us today. Sharon's two Recallable Books also capitalize on mid-century notions of celebrity: Mommie Dearest by Christina Crawford and Edie: American Girl by Jean Stein and George Plimpton. John's choice, The Entertainer by Margaret Talbot, another biographical account written by a star's daughter, gives a slightly rosier perspective on the family memoir. Discussed in this episode: Sharon Marcus, The Drama of Celebrity Daniel Boorstin, The Image (“a person who is known for his well-knownness”) Theodor Adorno and Theodore Horkheimer, “Culture Industry” in Dialectic of Enlightenment Henry Jenkins, “Textual Poachers“ Dick Herbdige, “Subculture: The Meaning of Style“ Mark Twain, Patented Scrapbook Innovator Brooke Hayward, Haywire Christina Crawford, Mommie Dearest Jean Stein, George Plimpton, Edie, American Girl Margaret Talbot, The Entertainer Read the episode here.

It is a privilege to welcome actress and singer Kim Yarbrough back to The Jake's Take with Jacob Elyachar brand (and for the first time on the podcast) for the first time in 14 years! Many Reality TV fans first saw Kim Yarbrough audition for The Voice USA: Season Two in Spring 2012. Her powerful interpretation of Chaka Khan's “Tell Me Something Good” turned both founding coaches' chairs, Adam Levine and Christina Aguilera, around. After joining Team Adam, Kim wowed the audience with her cover of Mary J. Blige's “No More Drama” and advanced to the Season Two Live Playoffs. During The Voice: Season Two Live Playoffs, she sang Adele's “Rolling in the Deep” but fell into the Bottom Three. After delivering a superb, powerful cover of Jennifer Hudson's “Spotlight,” the Maroon 5 frontman chose to advance Kim's then teammate, Katrina Parker, to the Top 16. After her appearance on the NBC talent competition, Al Roker, Hoda Kotb, and Kathie Lee Gifford interviewed her on Today, and she sang with the Roots on Late Night with Jimmy Fallon. Over the years, Kim dove deep into the entertainment industry. She guest-starred on several television shows, including 2 Broke Girls, 9-1-1, Hollywood Heights, Hot in Cleveland, Kenan, The Mindy Project, New Girl, Shameless, and The Up-Shaws. Kim also had recurring roles in Cherish the Day (Aunt Natalie), The Haunted Hathaways (Madame Labuef), and the animated series Kid Cosmic (Flo (voice)). In addition, Kim lent her voice to the Oscar-winning animated film Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse. She also shared the stage and screen with entertainment industry legends, including Dennis Quaid, Loretta Devine, Octavia Spencer, Cedric the Entertainer, Stevie Wonder, Sheila E, and the late Betty White and her mentor Della Reese, who produced the stage show Della Reese Presents Kim Yarbrough, which allowed Kim to showcase her talents to the Hollywood Entertainment Community. On this episode of The Jake's Take with Jacob Elyachar Podcast, Kim Yarbrough spoke about voice acting, tutoring students in the arts, and if she would ever audition for America's Got Talent or wait for a future All-Stars season of The Voice USA.

Klaas will über Bücher reden - da ist er bei uns genau richtig. Er liebt dicke Bücher. Wir auch! Er möchte ALLES mitmachen. Okayyy! Jan und Daniel reden mit ihm über alles.

Entertainer and Chaplin historian, Dan Kamin, was kind enough to join us at the home office of the Golden Silent Films Podcast to discuss the 1925 Chaplin classic, "The Gold Rush." This episode is a rare event for us. We don't do in-person interviews often, but this one was defiantly worth stepping out of our comfort zone for. Dan Kamin had so many great insights and stories from the making of "The Gold Rush" and our chat is a great compliment to our full episode breaking down the film. We hope you enjoy this conversation as much as we enjoyed having it!Bluesky - @goldensilentscastInstagram - goldensilentscastTwitter/X - @goldensilents 1Dan Kamin - www.dankamin.com#chaplin #charliechaplin #charleschaplin #silentfilm #silentmovie #silentfilms #silentmovies #filmpodcast #filmdiscussion #classicfilm #hollywood #thegoldrush #filmcomedy #pittsburgh
Vor 650 Jahren starb in der Toskana Giovanni Boccaccio. Ein Dichter am Ende des italienischen Mittelalters, Rechtsanwalt und Sohn eines erfolgreichen Kaufmanns. Vor allem aber ein großer Gelehrter und Entertainer. Als die Pest wütete, schrieb er 100 Geschichten über die Liebe. Das Dekamerone ist schlau, deftig und bis heute sehr gut lesbar. Giovanni Boccaccio hat viel zur italienischen Kultur beigetragen – wie Dante und sein Zeitgenosse Petrarca. Zum Todestag erscheinen pünktlich zu Weihnachten eine Neuübersetzung und eine neue Biographie – man kann von Boccaccio auch lernen, wie das ist mit der Liebe heute. Alexander Wasner diskutiert mit Franziska Meier – Professorin für Romanistik und Komparatistik, Universität Göttingen; Ijoma Mangold – Feuilletonredakteur "DIE ZEIT" und einer der Teilnehmer am Podcast „Die sogenannte Gegenwart“; Barbara Vinken – Professorin für Romanistik an der LMU München

Ich wünsche dir gute und inspirierende Unterhaltung mit Roberto Blanco.
Episode 217 of The Hitstreak, a podcast where we talk about anything and everything! This week we are joined by Groundbreaking Nashville DJ, producer, and Entertainer, Dee Jay Silver and Super Bowl Champion, Pro Bowl Wide Receiver, Entrepreneur and Podcaster, Golden “Showtime” Tate!Episode in a Glance:In this episode of The Hitstreak, I get to talk to a dynamic duo, DJ Silver and Golden Tate, who share their journey of creating a podcast that bridges the worlds of sports and music. We discuss the importance of authenticity, the natural flow of conversation, and the excitement of sharing real stories that resonate with listeners. Silver and Golden share personal anecdotes about overcoming self-doubt, the drive to succeed, and the significance of reliability in high-pressure situations. The episode also touches on navigating criticism, dreaming big for the future, and creating a safe space for open conversations.Key Points:- The importance of surrounding oneself with good people.- Challenging listeners to think critically.- Belief in the power of storytelling to inspire others.- Finding a way to overcome challenges is essential.- Criticism can be a motivator to stay true to oneself.- Dreaming big and setting goals can lead to exciting opportunities.- Generosity and giving back to the community are vital.- Authenticity in connections can lead to meaningful relationships.About our guest: | Dee Jay Silver made history as the first DJ ever signed to a major Nashville record label—RCA Nashville—pioneering the fusion of country music and dance culture. For over 15 years, he's electrified audiences as a touring DJ, remixer, and producer, performing across the U.S., Mexico, and Canada with his high-energy, genre-blending style. A longtime touring partner of Jason Aldean, Silver has also shared the stage with Luke Bryan, Kane Brown, Florida Georgia Line, Luke Combs, and many more. He's brought his signature sound to major festivals like CMA Fest, Tortuga, and Rock the South, as well as sporting and entertainment stages including the Super Bowl, NASCAR, and the ACM Awards. | Golden Tate III, widely known as “Showtime Tate,” is a Super Bowl Champion, Pro Bowl wide receiver, and one of the most electrifying playmakers of his generation. From his early days at Notre Dame—where he captured the prestigious Biletnikoff Award as the nation's top receiver—to becoming the NFL's undisputed YAC (Yards After Catch) king, Golden built a career defined by relentless heart, fearless hustle, and unforgettable highlight moments.

Listen to a conversation with the virtuoso multi-instrumentalist, vocalist, and bandleader, Ricky Skaggs. Born in Kentucky in 1954, Skaggs has played a central role in shaping modern bluegrass and country music. A child prodigy, he first performed on stage with Bill Monroe at age six, and at age seven he appeared on national television with Lester Flatt and Earl Scruggs. Before turning 18, Skaggs had already performed with many of the greatest legends in bluegrass. At age 15, he and his childhood friend Keith Whitley joined Ralph Stanley's Clinch Mountain Boys. In the 1970s, Skaggs' musicianship helped redefine progressive bluegrass through his work with the Country Gentlemen, J.D. Crowe & the New South, and Emmylou Harris' Hot Band. He launched his solo career in the early 1980s and became a leading figure in the neotraditional country movement. His string of #1 hits — including “Crying My Heart Out Over You,” “Highway 40 Blues,” and “Heartbroke” — made him one of the decade's most influential artists. During this period he earned multiple CMA Awards, including Entertainer of the Year in 1985, as well as several Grammy Awards. In the 1990s, Skaggs returned his focus to bluegrass, forming his acclaimed band Kentucky Thunder. In 2018, Skaggs was inducted into both the Country Music Hall of Fame and the Bluegrass Music Hall of Fame—one of the few artists to receive both honors. He is also a member of the Grand Ole Opry. Skaggs has performed and recorded with a wide range of legendary artists across many genres, including Jack White, Ray Charles, Johnny Cash, Dolly Parton, Charlie Haden, Bruce Hornsby, Béla Fleck, John Fogerty, and Dionne Warwick, among many others. Across his decades-long career, Ricky Skaggs' contributions as a singer, mandolinist, fiddler, bandleader, and tradition-bearer have secured his legacy as one of the most important figures in American roots music. Ricky Skaggs and Kentucky Thunder will present a special Christmas concert at the Brown County Music Center on December 11.

My guest for this show is Konstantinos Pappas, Course Leader and serious entertainer! As he puts it, sometimes teachers have to be actors, even clowns. And he has a point. Last time we talked about voice; now let's talk about performance. How do we grab attention and keep it through a long lesson? How do we make dry concepts come alive? And is this approach really practical for teachers? Where's the line - and do we even need one? Let's talk about all of it.

The Jay Franze Show: Your backstage pass to the entertainment industry
A live-sung medley that actually left us breathless. That's how Lainey Wilson opened a CMA night that felt tighter, braver, and more fun than it's been in years—and yes, she backed it up with Entertainer of the Year, Album of the Year, and Female Vocalist. We talk about why her solo hosting worked, how she commanded the stage with eight outfit changes, and what her wins say about where country music is heading.We dig into performances that sparked debate, especially Chris Stapleton solo versus his duet with Miranda Lambert—great song, flawless execution, but does it fit either brand? The Red Clay Strays brought harmonies that surprised us with an Arctic Monkeys vibe, raising a bigger question about identity: when southern bands don't claim “country,” yet chart on country formats, is that healthy expansion or a nudge to fit the market? Along the way, we celebrate pros who hold the scene together—Paul Franklin's Musician of the Year nod and a heartfelt tribute to Vince Gill's mentorship and humility.Then we zoom out. Are labels signing too many TikTok artists who can't deliver live? How much do charts really matter now—less for artists, more for songwriters? We compare A-players in the studio to road bands on tour, why some artists are skipping the “Nashville session” model, and how remote recording and AI risk eroding that full-room magic where eight players breathe together. You'll also hear a lively news round-up, a chart countdown, candid listener mailbag on genre blending and economics, and a hilarious community game: ruin a band name by changing one letter.

The CMAs tried to be everything at once: a celebration of country's roots, a launchpad for rising acts, and a glossy TV moment with crossover appeal. We sat down after watching every minute (twice) and cut through the noise with a blunt, song-first breakdown of what actually worked, what didn't, and why the fans' reality isn't showing up on stage.We start with Lainey Wilson's capable hosting and a performance that sparked debate about image and song fit. Then we zero in on the music: Chris Stapleton's band-first power, Zach Top's classic-country momentum, Red Clay Strays' raw charisma, and Stephen Wilson Jr.'s singular style. Kenny Chesney's thoughtful tribute to Brett James reminded us what sincerity looks like on a big stage, while a disco-styled duet left us wondering how a concept can eclipse the song. We also grapple with the Vince Gill tribute choice—how to honor an icon with the right voices and the right feel.The conversation keeps coming back to scale and stakes. If Entertainer of the Year is about ticket sales, streaming impact, and cultural reach, fans know who they're crowning. We talk candidly about the Morgan Wallen-sized gap between stadium reality and awards-night narrative, why certain categories feel hollow, and how the business can champion bands and vocal groups without blurring what those categories mean. Along the way, we call out who likely played live, where production helped or hurt, and which artists have “a thing” that cuts through.If you want a no-spin tour through the night's highs, lows, and head-scratchers—plus a grounded take on where country music is actually headed—this episode is your companion piece to the broadcast.

The Jay Franze Show: Your backstage pass to the entertainment industry
Awards night pressure meets a changing country music landscape. We break down the CMA slate with honest picks, why Entertainer of the Year is a different beast than Album of the Year, and how a solo-hosting Laney Wilson turned momentum into a movement. From Morgan Wallen's chart gravity to Ella Langley and Megan Moroney's six-nomination surge, we track who's peaking, who's pushing through, and what it takes to make the leap from “new name” to headliner.Beyond the trophies, we dig into what's really shaping the sound: TikTok breakthroughs, streaming playlist economics, live-streamed concerts, and the way synced lyrics and captions change how fans listen. We talk about the rise of crafted online personas, the risk of shorter artist lifespans in a swipe era, and why authenticity still cuts through—especially when artists open up about mental health and sobriety. The conversation stays grounded with a focused review of Ella Langley's “Choosing Texas,” from lyric arc and imagery to the mix decisions, mandolin ear candy, and Miranda Lambert's harmony that gives the hook extra lift.Style gets its due too. We compare onstage looks and what they signal about identity—Laney's western glam, Megan Moroney's color eras, Dolly's timeless sparkle—and how fashion now plays into fan engagement and discoverability. Add a brisk chart rundown, indie gems, and a lively mailbag, and you've got a fast, fun, and thoughtful tour through where country is headed next.Drop your CMA predictions in the comments so we can read them on the next episode.Episode LinksAI Experiment: https://jayfranze.com/experiment/Billie Jo Jones: https://jayfranze.com/episode98/Dalila Mya: https://jayfranze.com/episode102/Send us a text Support the showLinks Jay Franze: https://jayfranze.com/ JFS Country Countdown: https://jayfranze.com/countdown/ Contact Contact: https://jayfranze.com/contact/ Socials Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jayfranze TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@jayfranze X: https://x.com/jayfranze YouTube: https://youtube.com/@jayfranze Services Services: https://jayfranze.com/services/ Books Books: https://jayfranze.com/books/ Merchandise Merchandise: https://jayfranze.com/merchandise/ Support Support: https://jayfranze.com/support/ Sponsor the Show: https://jayfranze.com/sponsor/

The 59th Annual CMA Awards are over, and the dust is still settling in Nashville. Jrod breaks down the three-hour spectacle, from the biggest wins that shifted the genre to the snubs and controversies that social media can't stop talking about. Inside this episode: Lainey Wilson's Reign: She walked away with Entertainer of the Year and Album of the Year, but did the triple win while hosting taint the victory? We analyze the reaction and whether she deserves the crown. The Vocalist Upset: Why Cody Johnson's Male Vocalist win was the biggest correction in years, and what it signals for traditional country music. The Snub: We dive deep into the artists who went home empty-handed—starting with a major nominee—and what their loss means for their current chart momentum. Best on Stage: We break down the absolute standout performances, including Kelsea Ballerini's cinematic moment, the genre-blending performance of Luke Combs & BigXthaPlug, and the emotional, career-defining tribute to Vince Gill. The Controversy: The truth about the "rigged" claims, the performance we wish we could forget, and the continuous Morgan Wallen vs. Awards Show tension. Learn more about your ad choices.

Cedric the Entertainer reminds everyone that hunger is no laughing matter, blasting political indifference while stressing empathy for families one paycheck away from broke. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
The Rickey Smiley Morning Show Podcast dives into the week’s biggest mix of justice, politics, and nostalgia — with equal parts heart and humor. The episode opens on a somber but powerful note: former Illinois sheriff’s deputy Sean Grayson has been convicted of second-degree murder in the killing of Sonya Massey, the Springfield woman fatally shot in her home after calling 911 for help. Grayson’s sentencing could bring up to 20 years in prison, marking a rare but significant conviction in a police shooting case. From there, the show shifts to Senator Pastor Raphael Warnock, who joins the crew to break down the looming SNAP benefits crisis and government shutdown. He warns that more than 40 million Americans — many of them working parents and children — could see their food aid vanish if Congress doesn’t act. The pastor-senator calls the standoff “organized cruelty” and urges listeners to support food banks and local ministries until the government releases emergency funds. Lightening the mood, Cedric the Entertainer reminds everyone that hunger is no laughing matter, blasting political indifference while stressing empathy for families one paycheck away from broke. Finally, pop culture gets a nostalgic jolt as news drops that Kelly Williams (Laura Winslow) and Telma Hopkins (Aunt Rachel) are launching a Family Matters rewatch podcast — promising behind-the-scenes stories, guest appearances, and plenty of “Did I do that?” memories.
