Pee-Wee As Himself is an HBO Max two-part documentary exploring the life and career of Paul Reubens, known for his character Pee-wee Herman. Directed by Matt Wolf, Pee-wee as Himself is constructed around over 40 hours of candid interviews with Reubens, conducted before his passing in 2023. The film delves into his early influences in circus and avant-garde theater, his meteoric rise with Pee-wee's Playhouse and Pee-wee's Big Adventure, and the deliberate separation he maintained between his personal identity and his Pee-wee persona. The documentary also addresses the controversies that impacted Reubens' career, including his 1991 arrest and the 2002 charges related to vintage erotica, which were later dropped. In a poignant final audio message recorded shortly before his death, Reubens reflects on the pain of being misunderstood and emphasizes the importance of self-acceptance and non-conformity—a message he consistently aimed to impart to his audience. Joining Kate is two-time Emmy and Grammy award-winning comedian Kathy Griffin, one of Paul Reubens good friends.

In honor of The New Yorker's centennial this year, the magazine's staff writers are pulling out some classics from the long history of the publication. Louisa Thomas, The New Yorker's sports correspondent, naturally gravitated to a story about baseball with a title only comprehensible to baseball aficionados: “Hub Fans Bid Kid Adieu.” The essay was by no less a writer than the author John Updike, and the “Kid” of the title was Ted Williams, the Hall of Fame hitter who spent nineteen years on the Boston Red Sox. By happenstance, Updike joined the crowd at Fenway Park for Williams's last game before his retirement, in 1960. Thomas, looking at subtle word changes that Updike made as he was working on the piece, reflects on the writer's craft and the ballplayer's. “Marginal differences really matter,” she says. “And it's those marginal differences that are the difference between a pop-up, a long fly, and a home run. Updike really understood that, and so did Williams.”Plus, a visit with one of the great modern practitioners of the earworm, Charles Strouse, who wrote music for “Bye Bye Birdie” and “Annie,” and the theme to “All in the Family.” Strouse died this month at ninety-six. In one of his last interviews he gave, in 2023, he spoke with the Radio Hour's Jeffrey Masters about his rivalry with Stephen Sondheim. “Stephen and I were friendly enemies. He didn't like me much. I didn't like him less.”

Ever wonder what it takes to write a hit song? Try writing 84 of them. Ashley Gorley has accomplished what many thought impossible – becoming the most successful commercial songwriter of all time, surpassing even Paul McCartney's legendary catalog. This record-breaking achievement didn't happen overnight; it was built on years of dedication, countless hours in writing rooms, and an unmatched work ethic.From his humble beginnings making DJ remixes and blending acapellas with different musical backings, Gorley developed a versatile approach that would later serve him across multiple genres. While Nashville's country music scene became his primary canvas, his talents have extended far beyond, crafting hits for artists ranging from Jason Aldean and Morgan Wallen to Bon Jovi and even earning a Grammy nomination with Weezer.What separates Gorley from other songwriters? Perhaps it's his unique process – often writing without touching an instrument, focusing purely on melody and lyrics before anything else. Or maybe it's his remarkable ability to sense a hit, though he admits being surprised when experimental songs like "That's My Kind of Night" and "T-Shirt" became massive successes. More likely, it's his philosophy of originality: "Don't write B versions of what's already out there... what can you bring to the table that we don't already have?"Despite his professional triumphs, Gorley's priorities remain firmly rooted in faith and family. Rather than chasing material possessions, he's invested his success in experiences, taking his children on meaningful trips around the world and mentoring the next generation of songwriters. Through his publishing company, he's helped foster another 50 number one hits beyond his personal catalog.For aspiring writers, his advice is both encouraging and sobering: find your creative community, be open to criticism, and prepare for rejection. The path isn't easy – Gorley wrote for seven years before his first hit – but for those willing to put in the work and offer something unique, Nashville still offers that rare opportunity where a great song can be recorded simply because someone loves it.The Try That in a Small Town Podcast is powered by e|spaces!

We remember Broadway composer Charles Strouse, who died May 15 at age 96. He wrote the music for the hit musicals Bye Bye Birdie and Annie, which included such songs as "Put On a Happy Face," "A Lot of Livin' to Do," and "Tomorrow." Jay-Z sampled "Hard Knock Life," from Annie, on a Grammy-award-winning rap recording. Strouse understood why: "I wanted that song to be gritty. I didn't want it to be a fake. I wanted it to show these desperate times and these maltreated girls." Strouse spoke with Terry Gross in 2002. Also, critic-at-large John Powers reviews Mission: Impossible – The Final Reckoning.

MSNBC's Ari Melber hosts "The Beat" on Friday, May 23, and reports on President Trump's "retribution campaign."

When the jazz singer Cécile McLorin Salvant was profiled in The New Yorker, Wynton Marsalis described her as the kind of talent who comes along only “once in a generation or two.” Salvant's work is rooted in jazz—in the tradition of Ella Fitzgerald and Sarah Vaughan and Abbey Lincoln—and she has won three Grammy Awards for Best Jazz Vocal Album. But her interests and her repertoire reach across eras and continents. She studied Baroque music and jazz at conservatory, and performs songs in French, Occitan, and Haitian Kreyòl. “I think I have the spirit of a kind of a radio d.j. slash curator,” she tells David Remnick. “It's almost like making a mixtape for someone and only putting deep cuts.” And even when singing the standards, she aims “to find the gems that haven't been sung and sung and sung over and over again.” During a summer tour, she visited the studio at WNYC to perform “Don't Rain on My Parade,” made famous by Barbra Streisand; “Can She Excuse My Wrongs,” by John Dowland, the English composer of the Elizabethan era; and “Moon Song,” an original from Salvant's album “Ghost Song.”This segment originally aired on May 31, 2024.

We've mistaken platforms for purpose. We've idolized influence and sacrificed intimacy. And we've called it success when in reality, it's just burnout in disguise. This week, Grammy-nominated singer/songwriter Tauren Wells joins Win Today for a brutally honest conversation about the danger of exposure growing faster than character. Together, we explore how influence without intimacy leads to insecurity, how image management becomes spiritual performance, and why pathologizing our struggles has kept us from doing the real work of healing.

GRAMMY winner Suzanne Vega talks "Luka," "Tom's Diner," her first studio album in more than a decade, and much more! PART ONEPaul and Scott talk about the pop culture museum in Seattle, as well as Nirvana, Soundgarden, the diner in Seinfeld, canned green beans, and other important stuff. PART TWOScott's in-depth conversation with Suzanne VegaABOUT SUZANNE VEGAGRAMMY winner Suzanne Vega is best known for “Luka,” which was a top 5 pop hit in 1987. In 1990 DNA reworked and remixed her song “Tom's Diner,” giving her another top 5 pop hit. In total, Vega has released ten studio albums, four acoustic collections, and eight live albums, earning five GRAMMY nominations in the process. A wide-ranging songwriter, Suzanne has earned accolades for “Book of Dreams,” “Blood Makes Noise,” and “Caramel,” three sonically distinct compositions that reflect the breadth of the musical ground she covers. In 2004 she won a Peabody award for entertainment. Suzanne's most recent album, Flying with Angels, is her first new studio record in over a decade. 

On the latest episode of ‘New Classical Tracks,' Grammy-winning composer Michael Daugherty talks about his latest album, ‘Blue Electra,' which explores the triumphs and tragedies of flight, and features violinist Anne Akiko Meyers. Listen now with host Julie Amacher!

In this episode of Takin’ a Walk, host Buzz Knight strolls through the creative journey of Grammy-nominated vocalist Ryan Shaw and acclaimed pianist/composer Ray Angry (The Roots) as they discuss their electrifying new project, Off Broadway. Listeners get an inside look at how a chance collaboration at New York’s 54 Below sparked the idea for an album that reimagines classic Broadway hits through the lens of R&B, soul, jazz, rock, reggae, house, and even classical music, covering material from over 70 years. Ryan and Ray share the story behind the album’s genesis: how producer Scott Jacoby, inspired after witnessing their live chemistry, proposed capturing their synergy in the studio, resulting in a whirlwind two-week recording session that brought together top-tier musicians and bold new arrangements. The duo reflects on the creative freedom and mutual respect that fueled the project, revealing how they pushed each other out of their comfort zones to deliver surprising, genre-blurring renditions of Broadway standards like “Gethsemane” and “Send in the Clowns”. With anecdotes about their favorite tracks, the magic of live improvisation, and the thrill of bringing fresh energy to beloved songs, this episode is a must-listen for music lovers and Broadway fans alike. Tune in for a behind-the-scenes walk, recorded at Scott Jacoby's Eusonia Studio in New York City(and joined by Scott) with two prodigious talents who are redefining what it means to go “Off Broadway”.
