Podcast appearances and mentions of Freddie Mercury

Recordamos a don Ramón Valdés en su aniversario luctuoso. Se cumplen 50 años del lanzamiento del disco "A Night At The Opera" de Queen, donde escuchamos ese gran tema llamado "Bohemian Rhapsody". ¿Se acuerdan cuando vinieron a México? Hasta zapatos le aventaron a Freddie Mercury. Además, el dato para ligar y la historia de los bergantines de Cortés.

Paulo feels XXXtra Strong, while Dori can't believe the price of Chappies.We uncover some of the weirdest sitcoms from the '80s — and surprisingly, none of them carried the bizarre 2-21 age restriction enjoyed by Emmanuelle 1–12.Dori reviews a Shifty podcast, while Paulo finds out what happens when Monty Python, Cheech & Chong, Mel Brooks' troupe, and David Bowie play pirate dress-up.Finally, Rod Stewart really shouldn't be allowed near ChatGPT — and The Pogues are definitely going to ruin our Christmas.Jump To: Strangest 80s TV Shows (00:05:11)Nearly Departed: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z2roa-VT-9URubik the amazing cube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LYs_GCy9PRkWhere's Rodney: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WDREFBAAcBYHeil Honey I'm home: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K_T3z5OuiNgTV in Apartheid South Africa (00:15:19): https://youtu.be/xUXXgPKADuk?si=PadjTnXeyZAutXRZPodcast Recommendation: The Rest is Shifty (00:24:42): https://iono.fm/c/9439Mobile Recording Studio & Lloyd Ross (00:30:37): https://www.saha.org.za/shiftyrecords/lloyd_ross_at_work_in_the_shifty_caravan.htmYellowbeard (00:35:43)Trailer: https://youtu.be/3RC69keaDGo?si=wPPKnkoSVhbpji1LBehind the scenes documentary: https://youtu.be/0CNzeAzh288?si=1BNGsFfbWrUX2081Rod Stewart, AI, and Technology Misuse (00:45:26): https://youtube.com/shorts/EgTAewBGzRY?si=ZhJygYM_Rn6VIX_yBBC Radio 2's Ultimate 80s Duet List (00:48:38): https://www.bbc.com/mediacentre/2025/bbc-radio-2-ultimate-80s-duet-results#80s pop culture, #That 80s Show, #sitcom theme songs, #SportBilly #1980s television, #1980s movies, #nostalgia, #strange TV shows, #short-lived sitcoms, #movie ratings, #censorship, #apartheid South Africa, #Full House, #Cheers, #Growing Pains, #Perfect Strangers, #Three's Company, #Nearly Departed, #Rubik the Amazing Cube, #Where's Rodney?, #Hail Honey I'm Home, #Everything 80s podcast, #PG-13 rating, #National Lampoon's Vacation, #censorship in films, #South African media, #audio work, #nostalgic candies, #tariffs, #inflation, #comedy, #boy bands, #Menudo, #Rodney Dangerfield, #social commentary, #political themes, #racial issues, #South African music history, #Shifty Records, #80s duets, #Philip Bailey, #Phil Collins, #Joe Cocker, #Jennifer Warnes, #David Bowie, #Mick Jagger, #Meatloaf, #Kylie Minogue, #Jason Donovan, #The Communards, #Pet Shop Boys, #Dusty Springfield, #Freddie Mercury, #Montserrat Caballé, #Queen, #David Bowie, #The Pogues, #Kirsty MacColl, #Fairytale of New York, #conspiracy theories, #podcasting, #humor, #cultural reflections.

Outward is going on a little summer break, in the meantime we're leaving you with a delightfully queer episode of Slate's Hit Parade with Chris Molanphy called Mighty Real. This is part two—catch part one in our previous episode. Little Richard was rock ‘n' roll's flamboyant architect. Lesley Gore sang that no one owned her. Sylvester was a gender-fluid icon who helped define disco. Freddie Mercury made rock operatic, and George Michael demanded freedom. What all of these LGBTQ artists had in common was bold hitmaking—and fear of being fully out of the closet. For decades, queer acts topped the charts while cloaking their true identities and paving the way for today's more openly queer stars. For Pride Month, join Chris Molanphy as he traces the hidden history of queer hitmakers on the charts—including those that managed to be both out and No. 1, right up through our modern age of Lil Nas X and Chappell Roan. It's a celebration of these artists' quest to feel… mighty real. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Amongst its pages, there are many familiar names—Oscar Wilde, Quentisn Crisp, Sappho, James Baldwin, Freddie Mercury — but also many we might not expect: Florence Nightingale, Marlene Dietrich, Cary Grant, J. Edgar Hoover, Eleanor Roosevelt, Tchaikovsky, Greta Garbo, Richard the Lionheart, even Abraham Lincoln,  along with 1000 other stories of artists, generals, politicians, kings, despots and many more figures drawn from 5000 years of hidden culture.   Keith Stern came to the Bureau to talk about his extraordinary encyclopaedia ‘Queers in History', what drove him to write it, and why it matters.   The book is more than a who's-who of queer life —it's a challenge to the official version of the past, a reminder of how history gets made, unmade, and remade,  depending on who's telling the stories, inviting us to consider how queerness has always existed, and has contributed to the culture. And we get into the subject of whether Gandalf was Queer - yes, we really do…

(Re-publicacion de episodio de 2020) En este fascinante episodio, "Ecos de lo Remoto" desentraña el misterioso don de la profecía a través de un inusual producto cultural: el manga japonés. Exploramos el asombroso caso de Rio Tatsuki, una mangaka que, desde 1980, experimentó recurrentemente sueños premonitorios, los cuales recopiló en su obra "El futuro que vi", publicada en 1999. La portada de este cómic, cargada de simbolismo, ya anticipaba la naturaleza a menudo negativa de sus visiones. Entre sus predicciones más impactantes y cumplidas, se encuentra la muerte de Freddie Mercury en la fecha exacta de su fallecimiento, el terremoto de Kobe de 1995 (del que avisó a 20 personas, salvándolas), e incluso la mención de un virus desconocido para 2020.

Chaz and AJ asked the Tribe to call in their real-life nightmare stories, from bear encounters, to late night volleyball games and even some viral thievery. (0:00)  Jim Pino from the Rum Runners (and other bands) was in with Chaz and AJ this morning to talk about the 16th annual Beach Jam. They've raised over $625,000 so far for cancer patient care. (18:13)  During Stump the Chumps, Marty called in to quiz the show about Freddie Mercury. A simple question and answer turned into a classic Marty-verse detour of madness. (23:49)

He's jammed with Freddie Mercury after Live Aid, written songs with Beach Boys royalty, and once found himself shooting guns in a backyard with KISS guitarist Ace Frehley…while on Quaaludes. I'm talking about musician, songwriter, and producer Larry Dvoskin. Over the years, Larry has collaborated with legends like Robert Plant, Sammy Hagar, Sean Lennon, Robin Zander, Bad Company, Al Jardine, and MGMT. In this episode, we cover it all—from co-writing “Wish” with Al Jardine, to talking quantum physics with Paul McCartney, to the unreleased David Bowie–Brandy track he's holding onto. He shares the full story behind that surreal Ace Frehley moment and discusses his latest release, “This New Age,” recorded with the band Familiar Faces. We kick off this conversation with a heartfelt look at the legacy of Brian Wilson - and the timeless music of the Beach Boys that continues to inspire generations.

Epstein; Tariffs; GM; Fed; Energy; Sugar; Cronyism; Russia; China; Fusion; AI |The Yaron Brook Show | July 22, 2025 In this packed and provocative episode, Yaron dives into the latest headlines—from the moral rot surrounding Jeffrey Epstein and the cowardice of those in power, to the destructive resurgence of protectionism in the form of tariffs. He takes on General Motors and the growing web of corporate-state entanglement, lambasting the Federal Reserve for its continued economic manipulation. In segments on energy and sugar, Yaron exposes the deep-rooted cronyism distorting prices and crushing innovation—all while enriching the politically connected.The conversation then turns global, with sharp commentary on Russia's aggression, China's authoritarian ambitions, and the West's philosophical disarmament in the face of both. Yaron explores the promise and peril of emerging technologies—like the bold (but dubious?) claims of nuclear fusion breakthroughs, and the race to harness AI without sacrificing individual rights and human purpose. Can the West still lead? Only if it reclaims its moral and philosophical foundations.**Live Questions:**In a dynamic and wide-ranging Q&A, Yaron answers questions about the psychology behind public shaming and resentment, the loneliness epidemic, the relationship between logic and reason, and whether a love of money is virtuous. Viewers asked about favorite rockstars to resurrect (hello, Freddie Mercury), Kurosawa films, NYC boroughs, and even the ethics of eternal post-death consciousness. One question explored how proximity to people who refuse to truly *Live* can affect your own ability to thrive. As always, thoughtful, unscripted, and unapologetically rational.Key Time Stamps:05:00 Jeffrey Epstein10:15 Tariffs15:15 General Motors19:10 Federal Reserve27:00 Energy30:45 Sugar35:55 Cronyism44:20 Russia48:40 China53:40 Fusion1:03:00 AILive Questions begin at 1:08:18---

In this highly scientific and not at all petty episode of Past Tens, Dave and Milt throw down in the only arena that really matters anymore: pop culture debates. It's the Past Tens Riff-Off, where no sacred cow is safe, every cow is delicious, and every opinion is shouted like it's 1986 and you just lost your cassingles collection. The format? Timed debates. The stakes? Imaginary. The judgment? Left up to you, our dear listeners with way too much time on your hands. From Freddie Mercury vs. Mick Jagger (tight pants vs. tighter pants) to the eternal dilemma of whether a hot dog is a sandwich (it's not, calm down), Dave and Milt spar over music, movies, TV, theme park rides, game show hosts, and more. Along the way, you'll hear grunts, woos, awkward impersonations, and the occasional moment of clarity. Then you vote on our Facebook page to settle the debates because we're way too biased to be trusted. Timestamps for your convenience (or if you're hate-skimming): 00:00 – Welcome to Past Tens (you know the drill) 00:56 – Warning: Musical debates ahead 01:56 – The Riff-Off explained (kind of) 05:43 – Debate 1: Freddie Mercury vs. Mick Jagger (glam vs. strut) 11:26 – Debate 2: Pirates of the Caribbean vs. Space Mountain (eyeliner vs. nausea) 18:40 – Debate 3: Chrissie Hynde vs. Stevie Nicks (scowl vs. shawl) 24:20 – Debate 4: Top Gun ‘86 vs. Maverick ‘22 (volleyball vs. trauma) 29:52 – Debate 5: “Holiday Road” vs. “I'm Alright” (Lindsey Buckingham tries, Kenny Loggins is alright) 35:36 – Coin flips and shameless begging for votes 36:26 – Debate 6: Trebek vs. Sajak (intellect vs. wheel-spinning) 41:35 – Debate 7: “Woo” vs. “Uh!” (James Brown intensifies) 47:44 – Debate 8: Al Michaels vs. John Madden (miracle calls vs. turducken) 53:07 – Debate 9: “Come On Eileen” vs. “Turning Japanese” (one-hit wonderland) 58:45 – Final Debate: Is a hot dog a sandwich?

Christian Dryden, bassist and lead singer of The Ritualists, joins Nicole Barlow and Ryan Pak to talk about the Queen soundtracked 1980 Mike Hodges film, Flash Gordon. Queen took the assignment so seriously that they spent a year dedicated to creating the soundtrack for this out of this world, space opera. The iconic "Flash's Theme" and "The Hero" even made regular appearances in Queen's setlists.Chrstian is both a huge Queen and comic book fan, so he was the perfect guest to talk about Flash Gordon. There are plenty of juice behind the scenes tea with this movie, including the possiblity of George Lucas being involved with the film.The Ritualists' new album, Too Pure to Cure is out now wherever you get your music.

The day the world stopped to listen. July 13, 1985 stands as a pivotal moment when music transcended entertainment to become a global force for humanitarian change. Live Aid connected London's Wembley Stadium and Philadelphia's JFK Stadium through groundbreaking satellite technology, reaching nearly 2 billion viewers.What made Live Aid revolutionary wasn't just its scale but its immediacy. Unlike Woodstock or other historic concerts we experience through curated footage, Live Aid happened in real-time before our eyes. From Status Quo kicking off with "Rockin' All Over The World" to the "We are the World" finale, we witnessed music history unfiltered—technical glitches, microphone failures, and all. This raw authenticity created an unprecedented shared global experience.The performances ranged from career-defining triumphs to disappointing reunions. U2 transformed from cult favorites to superstars with their electrifying 11-minute rendition of "Bad," featuring Bono's spontaneous rescue of a fan from the crushing crowd. Queen delivered what many consider rock's greatest live performance, with Freddie Mercury commanding 72,000 people like a conductor before his orchestra. Phil Collins made the impossible happen—performing in London, flying on the Concorde to New York, and helicoptering to Philadelphia to play with Eric Clapton and Led Zeppelin all in the same day.Beyond raising millions for Ethiopian famine relief, Live Aid fundamentally changed how we understand music's potential impact. It created the blueprint for benefit concerts that continues today, proving that artists could mobilize massive global action. Four decades later, in our fragmented media landscape, Live Aid's achievement seems even more remarkable—a singular moment when music united humanity across continents, cultures, and borders for a cause greater than ourselves.Music in My Shoes" where music and memories intertwine.Learn Something New orRemember Something OldPlease like and follow the Music in my Shoes Facebook and Instagram pages and share the podcast with friends on your social media.

It’s a celebration of the 40th anniversary of Live Aid! Live Aid was grand in scope and ambition. It was largely the brainchild of an unlikely hero, Bob Geldof, the Irish singer who fronted The Boomtown Rats, and who had helped assemble the all-star cast of Band Aid. Watched by 1.5 billion people, Live Aid eventually raised $127 US million for famine relief in Africa. But beyond that, Live Aid was also a cultural touchstone that showed the power of pop music and the determination of millions of people to make a difference in the world. Hours before the event took place, Christopher Ward had a chat with organizer Bob Geldof, who, in his intense way, told of the importance of Live Aid. He disputes the cultural significance in favour of the pragmatic view of delivering much needed aid to African famine relief. It’s an extraordinary interview with a man who is firing on all cylinders, almost to the breaking point. And of course, we also talk about the music, including: Although Geldof didn’t want them in the lineup, Freddie Mercury and the band provided the most memorable 22 minutes of the day, perhaps the best ever performance in music history. U2 – We have the full story of why they played only two songs that day… and how it became a major moment on their road to superstardom. David Bowie’s set was also memorable. But he almost didn’t play that day. And it was all because of a CBC report on the famine. We have the full story. Duran Duran. Simon LeBon made a considerable gaffe during one of their songs. He considers it the most embarrassing moment of his career. Led Zeppelin - why Jimmy Page blamed Phil Collins for Zeppelin’s less than perfect performance. There were also a number of artists who chose not to perform that day, including Bruce Springsteen, Michael Jackson, Prince, Culture Club and Huey Lewis. At least two of those acts regretted that decision. And we talk about the importance of Live Aid as a cultural milestone. Famous Lost Words, hosted by Christopher Ward and Tom Jokic, is heard in more than 100 countries worldwide and on radio stations across Canada, including Newstalk 1010 Toronto, CJAD 800 Montreal, 580 CFRA Ottawa, AM 800 CKLW Windsor, 610 CKTB St Catharines, CFAX Victoria, AM1150 Kelowna and 91x in Belleville. It is in the Top 20% of worldwide podcasts based on the number of listeners in the first week.

Baz Richards and Jess Contos talk with Peter Straker about his life in music and recalling Live Aid and his friendship with Freddie Mercury.

Welcome back to another Trve. Cvlt. Pop! it's the polyjamorous... nah, it's not... it's a music podcast.On this week's show, Sam is here and we look at the slew of music biopics that have been released over the last couple of decades, and show no sign of stopping, and ask; why are they so bad?From a shy Freddie Mercury with awful false teeth to a mockney Amy Winehouse getting blamed for her drug addiction, music biopics almost universally miss the entire purpose of what made their intended subject matter so special, and instead rely on cliches, formulaic structures, surface level performances and watered down versions of events.Here, we look at the problems with the genre, what can be done to improve them, what we fear is coming next and a couple of our own pitches that Hollywood might just want to consider picking up.There's also some new music recommendations and a lost banger from the past by Oxidde and Neutrino to chat about.

Los que aparecen 1) Mudo: Cuando en vos habita la mudez implica que hay cosas que no hablas por miedo o porque no sabes cómo expresar. Es necesario sacar lo que hay en el interior porque puede llegar a pudrir tu vida y tu relación con el exterior. Todo lo que se habla tiene solución y todo lo que se calla puede llevar a una depresión. Es importante expresar lo que te pasa, como incluso hacen algunos artistas que ponen en arte lo que les sucede. Un ejemplo puede ser Freddie Mercury, quien en su canción “Bohemian Rhapsody” pone todo lo que pasa en su interior y su crisis con el mundo. Expresar lo que te pasa puede calmarte y también ayudar a otros. 2) La multitud: La gente siempre verá tu éxito, pero le costará ver tus fracasos o tu trabajo para lograr lo que has logrado. Por tanto no dejes que la gente sea tu medidor de vida más bien tu vida va más allá de lo que te mida la gente. 3) Fariseos: En el ámbito de lo religioso nos encontramos con gente difícil que todo te cuestiona y hasta crea un Dios cuestionador. Por eso, no dejes que te enferme cierta gente religiosa que te quiere reglamentar tu vida o simplemente que seas un mero cumplidor de normas, olvidando lo esencial de la vida cristiana y espiritual. Busca las cosas que te mueven a Cristo y recordá que los pilares de tu vida cristiana son la Eucaristía y la Palabra. Que tu vida espiritual sea un motivador de llevar a Cristo y no que te motiven los meros cumplidos. Algo bueno está por venir.

Little Richard was rock ‘n' roll's flamboyant architect. Lesley Gore sang that no one owned her. Sylvester was a gender-fluid icon who helped define disco. Freddie Mercury made rock operatic, and George Michael demanded freedom. What all of these LGBTQ artists had in common was bold hitmaking—and fear of being fully out of the closet.

“Bohemian Rhapsody” is widely regarded as one of rock's all-time greatest songs, despite breaking just about every rule of what a hit single is supposed to be. In this Throwback Thursday episode (originally aired August 15th, 2022), Chris and Chris dive deep into Freddie Mercury's six-minute masterpiece—dissecting the song's bold arrangement, ambitious production, and soaring dynamics. They go beyond the surface to unpack the opera section's lyrics, revealing layers of meaning that most listeners likely never realized. From the a cappella intro to the explosive finale, it's a detailed tribute to Queen's genre-blurring classic.

An episode that didn't just think outside the box—it questioned why there's a box in the first place!In Episode 143 of The Autistic Culture Podcast, Dr Angela Kingdon continues our journey through the 10 Pillars of Autistic Culture as we move onto Pillar 6 — Game Changing Innovation. Autistic innovation isn't about trends or flash. It's about paradigm shifts. It's about seeing what no one else is looking for, hyperfocusing on what matters, and rebuilding the world, system by system.Dr Angela looks deep into the game-changing transformations developed by Autistic game changers, such as Sir Isaac Newton, who invented Calculus, Sir Richard Branson's out-of-the-box business models, and Angela's father's innovations in creating build-your-own Hot Rod kit cars.Here's what defines this core Autistic trait:* Autistic people challenge assumptions, not to be difficult, but because we can see the assumptions in the first place.* Neurodivergent people innovate through sensory truth, emotional intensity, and process precision.* Autistic people don't disrupt the status quo to seek attention. We disrupt because the system doesn't make sense, and we can't unsee that.* Game changers in autistic culture often challenge capitalist efficiency with a call for meaning, integrity, and alignment.* Many autistic innovators aren't seen as leaders until the world catches up to their vision.* Historical and modern change agents in autistic culture often operate without blueprints, forging their own.Key Concepts:* Game-changing is not about chasing disruption for its own sake. It's about building entirely new paradigms based on noticing what others overlook.* Autistic game changers are pattern-breakers and system rewriters — not trend-followers.* Our deep focus and drive for autonomy let us find wholly new approaches to enduring problems.* Emotional intensity and sensory insights fuel world-building innovation.* It's often misunderstood or resisted because the new paradigm doesn't fit existing frameworks.
