The Rev. Shawn Amos has had an extraordinary life and career in the music business. His father Wally Amos, best known as the delicious genius behind the Famous Amos cookie brand, was also a successful talent scout (the first black talent scout in the country to be exact) working with the likes of Marvin Gaye, The Temptations, Simon & Garfunkel and many more. So you could say that the music business is in Shawn's blood. Shawn forged his own path, working his way up as an A&R man for Shout! Factory! and Rhino Records. Among the many great artists he worked on records with include soul singer Solomon Burke, Herb Alpert, The Dirty Dozen Brass Band, Matthew Sweet, and the late great Quincy Jones, who sadly passed away shortly after we recorded this interview. Also an acclaimed author, Shawn's book "Cookies & Milk" was awarded the NAACP Image Award for Outstanding Literary Work - Youth/Teens! And on top of all that Shawn is a accomplished blues musician and singer/songwriter. His latest albums include the funk-inspired joyful blues album "Soul Brother No. 1" and a live album of 13 Rev classics entitled, "Vivir En España". Recorded on a recent tour of Spain. We get into all that and more in this fascinating conversation with The Rev. Shawn Amos. www.shawnamos.com . .

Today on the LA Food Podcast, is work/life balance possible in fine dining? What the heck is postmodern craft beer? And why should Angelenos care about the passing of Famous Amos founder Wally Amos? James Beard-nominated reporter Gab Chabran is with us today to explore all of these topics, and to tell us why he believes the city's best tacos are in Whittier, and where you should consider heading next time you're craving sushi or in need of Japanese pantry goods. Our interview today is with Chef Daniel Shemtob, the founder of The Lime Truck and HATCH Yakitori in Downtown LA. Daniel's most recent venture is called Snibbs. Snibbs is bringing cutting-edge, and rather good-looking work shoes, I might add to professional kitchens. Daniel saw a big hole in the market for stylish, functional footwear after slipping in the kitchen and missing the opening of his own restaurant. Daniel exudes entrepreneurialism, and this is a deeply inspiring conversation for anyone who's ever thought of starting a business, or who's even remotely interested in foot health and/or fashion. And did I mention that Daniel won two seasons of The Food Network's Great Food Truck Race?

In the newest issue of The Comic Section Podcast, the hosts will begin by paying their heartfelt condolences to two beloved figures who have recently passed away. First, they will honor Rachael Lillis, the talented voice actor known for bringing multiple Pokémon characters to life in the cartoon series and films, including Misty, Jessie, and Jigglypuff. The hosts will also remember Wallace "Wally" Amos Jr., the founder of Famous Amos cookies, whose impact on the snack industry remains legendary. The episode will then dive into the world of Marvel with a discussion on the highly anticipated Daredevil: Born Again series on Disney+. The hosts will explore how this new series, with Vincent D'Onofrio confirming it, may push the boundaries even further than the original Netflix series, setting new standards for Marvel's storytelling on the small screen. In industry news, the podcast will cover the significant decision by Paramount Global to shut down Paramount Television Studios. Originally intended to revive Paramount Pictures' presence in television production, the closure is part of a broader cost-cutting effort as the company seeks to eliminate $500 million amid ongoing changes in the entertainment industry. The hosts will also discuss the buzz around the upcoming film 'Alien: Romulus,' which is expected to rake in $75 million globally at the box office, showing the enduring popularity of the iconic sci-fi franchise. Another topic will be Tom Cruise's involvement in the Olympics closing ceremony, which drew an impressive 20.8 million viewers, highlighting the star's continued influence in global entertainment. In a more somber segment, the podcast will cover a legal case involving Disney+. The hosts will discuss how Disney is arguing that a man cannot sue the company over the death of his wife due to terms agreed upon in a free trial of the streaming service. The lawsuit, filed by Jeffrey Piccolo, is a wrongful death claim following his wife's severe allergic reaction after dining at a Disney World restaurant in 2023. In the "Coming Soon/Preview" segment, the podcast will give listeners a sneak peek at trailers from upcoming releases, including Kraven The Hunter, Agatha All Along, and Saturday Night. Lastly, in the review segment, Jason and Rigel will share their thoughts on Umbrella Academy Season 4, while all three hosts—Jason, Rigel, and Ant—will review Amazon Prime's Batman: The Caped Crusader. Tune in to The Comic Section Podcast for an episode filled with tributes, industry insights, and the latest reviews from the world of comics and entertainment!
Welcome back to another thought-provoking episode of the "That's Absurd Podcast." This week, we're diving deep into questions of identity, the latest news in politics, hip-hop, and pop culture, and some controversial moments in sports. Let's jump into it! Question of the Week: Do African Americans Consider People Like Kamala Harris as Black Historically? This week, we're tackling a complex question: How do African Americans view figures like Kamala Harris in terms of their racial identity? We explore the historical context and modern perspectives on what it means to be "Black" in America, especially when it comes to biracial or multicultural individuals. Notable News: Politics: Kamala Harris Announces VP Tim Walz: In a surprising political move, Vice President Kamala Harris has announced her running mate, Tim Walz, for the upcoming election. We discuss what this partnership means for the Democratic ticket and how it could shape the future of American politics. Hip Hop: Nelly Arrested in St. Louis: Hip-hop star Nelly was arrested in St. Louis due to an outstanding traffic summons. We break down the details of his arrest and discuss its implications for his career and public image. Pop Culture: Michael Rubin Speaks Out on "Black Hate on Hate": Michael Rubin, a prominent figure in sports and entertainment, has expressed his concerns over the rumors regarding Meek Mill's sexuality and the broader issue of "Black hate on Black hate." We delve into the impact of his statements and what they reveal about race and community in today's culture. Wally Amos Passes Away: We pay tribute to Wally Amos, the legendary founder of the Famous Amos cookie brand, who has sadly passed away. We reflect on his legacy and the impact he had on the food industry and African American entrepreneurship. Sports: Noah Lyles: The Rise of an Unlikable Star? Track and field sensation Noah Lyles has been making headlines, but not always for the right reasons. We discuss his recent comments and actions that have led some to label him as "unlikable." Is this criticism fair, or is it just part of being in the spotlight? That's a wrap for this week's episode of the "That's Absurd Podcast." From political maneuvers and hip-hop arrests to cultural commentary and sports controversies, we've covered a lot of ground. We hope you enjoyed the conversation and gained some new insights along the way. Thanks for tuning in! Don't forget to subscribe, share, and join the discussion on our social media channels.

Everybody Knows My Show Theme is "Risk It or Regret It!" Whatever IT is for YOU! So, I thought it would be fun to share how I risked getting my first paying radio job after college. It's a memorable story of driving in a thunderstorm at 11 o'clock at night after working all day at another job, to a radio station in an old house in Briarcliff Manor, NY where Howard Stern had worked, to audition for an immediate opening for a news reporter. I invited the guy who called me the next morning to tell me I got the job as the news reporter for WRNW Radio, to come join me in the studio to co-host a show. Ol' pal Gary Axelbank was the then Program Director of WRNW Radio. He's now the host of BronxTalk and Bronx Buzz on BronxNet and he also hosts The Bronx Music Podcast -with Gary Axelbank. He got in touch with me recently, sparked by the theme of my new book out to say he was totally on board with the point of "How to Talk to Strangers Advice From A Professional Stranger Talker". I wrote it to try and spark people to try to have more meaningful conversations 'in person' versus the virtual conversations we've become accustomed to having by texting and email. Even making an actual phone call is becoming a lost art. (These days when I make a phone call and a human answers, I actually get excited!) Gary said, “You know among many reasons that I responded to the point of your book is that I'm a communications professional like you are, and communication is so important, yet people don't talk to each other. I talk to people who I work with and I'm like, you know, we've got to get this guest booked or whatever. I'll tell them, do me a favor, just pick up the phone and find out if they can do it or they can't do it. They say OK I'll send them an email. Send an email? If you send them an email we're going to wait forever. Then you get an email chain where there's a whole discussion about, well, I can't do 12.30, I'll do 1.30 and I've lost track of what's going on. If we picked up the phone, we could get to somebody.” Gary and I are alike in that we intentionally put good energy into engaging people to converse ‘in person' pretty much every day. We both feel it matters a lot, wanted to talk more about why it matters. So we did… in this podcast of my entire show which airs weekdays 11-12noon EST on WGCH Radio in the NY/CT area and airs live globally on the digital livestream on WGCH.com I rarely post a whole show but decided to post this one because we both tell some good stories…. like the day I arrived to work at my usual 5:30am and found a drunk guy sitting on my typewriter. LOL And the day Famous Amos of Famous Amos cookies just walked in to introduce himself with a big box of his ‘new' cookies he was trying to promote. Gary tells a story about when Howard Stern worked there and what happened when he tried to kill a bee in the studio. Ha. We also talked about all the famous people who came from the Bronx. People like Jennifer Lopez (who has my same birthday) and Chazz Palminteri who's stopped by the show in the past and told me I reminded him of his mother Ha! Gary also teaches a course in TV performance and teaches his students that to conduct a great interview they need to ‘listen'. “Well, this is a cool thing that I do. One of the things that we talk about is like when you do an interview, how do you get good depth? You get good depth because you ask a question based on what I say. And then I demonstrate to them, and I do it with them. I ask, you know, where were you born? What are your parents like? To do this, you must be a good listener. I could walk into the pharmacy and talk to the pharmacist, and I could do a half hour right on the spot with that. And why? Because when I ask well, what medication do you sell a lot of? They'll say, we sell diabetes meds. And I'll say, oh, what are the options? And then he'll say, well, these are the options. Why would somebody choose one, and why would somebody choose the other? And I could stand there forever. And it doesn't matter.” We both could talk forever but that's what we do professionally. We both ust want to encourage the rest to you to talk a little more, listen a little more, and make a little more an effort to engage your fellow humans in authentic conversations. Enjoy this podcast of our live conversation on The Debbie Nigro Show. If you'd rather read than listen the audio transcript is below.

BJ and his wife had dinner with a family they know yesterday. One of the family's kids was talking about how he was going off to college this weekend with just a tank of gas and 30 dollars. The kid was trying to figure out how he was going to make it to school without getting any additional help because his mom won't even help him make sure he has enough gas to get to the school. The dad suggested that the mom wants to teach the kid a lesson. What lesson is being taught here? There is a report about drama on the set of the movie "This Ends With Us".
