Billy Bob Thornton returns to share fascinating tales from his six-year residency at LA's iconic Sunset Marquis Hotel, featured in the new documentary 'If These Walls Could Rock.' He recounts wild encounters with neighbors like Keith Richards, Jimmy Page, and Richard Harris, plus some pretty outrageous moments on the property. Billy Bob also discusses The Boxmasters' 21st album and their incredible experience opening for The Who, where they earned standing ovations. After that, Soul Asylum frontman Dave Pirner sits down for a wide-ranging conversation about the band's upcoming double album MPLS Unplugged. Dave opens up about being a self-described technophobe who just recently got an iPhone, the story behind Prince covering 'Stand Up and Be Strong,' and how the new acoustic record differs from their MTV Unplugged performance 30 years ago. They dive into Dave's songwriting process, which songs work acoustically versus electrically, and the incredible impact of 'Runaway Train' on both missing children and mental health awareness. Rounding out the podcast, Mikkey Dee joins for an in-depth conversation covering his terrifying health scare with sepsis that led to three surgeries and five weeks in the hospital. The Scorpions and former Motorhead drummer explains how the aggressive infection nearly took his right leg and his life. He discusses the formation of Lex Legion, reuniting four-fifths of a classic King Diamond lineup to create old-school metal with a modern twist. Mikkey also talks about Scorpions' continued vitality (despite the band members approaching 80), their upcoming Vegas residency, and why he's now the last man standing to carry Motorhead's torch forward.

I grew up a fan of rock photography, and the walls of my bedroom were my gallery. Back then, before social media existed, our connection to our favorite bands was to actually go to concerts, or to buy printed posters, or look at the vinyl album jackets. That part of my life influenced me so much that I began a career in radio, because if I couldn’t be the lead singer in a band (society is better for that decision) I might as well play the music. Fast forward to me in my 40s, and my radio career helped jump start me into the world of concert photography, in a wonderful full circle moment in my life. Those iconic photos from my youth have played a role in every phase of my life, and the photographers that captured those images will always hold a special place in my heart. Today’s guest is one of those legends. When talking about the music photographers that created the images that defined rock & roll there are simply too many to list, but a few always come to mind: Jim Marshall, Bob Gruen, Mick Rock, Henry Diltz, Neil Zlozower, Neal Preston, Baron Wolman, and Robert M. Knight – my guest today. Before I go any further into talking about Robert, or my love of his photography, and before someone comments that there are great music photographers today too… yeah, I know. I am lucky to call a few of them friends, and their work inspires my shooting daily, and those current photographers will all tell you that they were influenced by many of the legends I mentioned above. When talking about Robert M. Knight the conversation could go so in many directions. Robert has photographed legendary artists, like The Rolling Stones, Led Zeppelin, Run DMC, Green Day, Jimmy Page, Elton John, Slash, Jimi Hendrix, BB King, Stevie Ray Vaughan, Aerosmith, Eric Clapton, Jeff Beck, Steve Vai, and Carlos Santana. You’ve seen his photos, even if you didn’t know it at the time. I actually tried to come up with a few favorite images of his to ask him about using in the show, but that task was beyond me – I love way too many. His Zeppelin shot in front of the plane is special, then there’s the black and white shot of BB King laughing, or the extensive work he’s done with Jeff Beck. He even has some portrait work, like his shot of the late actor Robert Mitchum, that are just next level. Robert was one of the first photographers to capture Jimi Hendrix and Led Zeppelin, and he was the last to photograph Stevie Ray Vaughan. You can still find his book “Rock Gods: Fifty Years of Rock Photography”, in Hardcover and Paperback, on Amazon, and the 2009 documentary “Rock Prophecies” is a great introduction to not only Robert the photographer, but into some of the more personal areas of Robert’s life. Rock Prophecies was actually my first introduction into Robert and his wife Maryanne’s work with Guitar Center’s Hollywood RockWalk, or his work with up-and-coming guitarists. A few years ago a guitarist friend of mine, Chase Walker, posted photos he did with Robert, and I was so excited for him. I’d photographed Chase many times, and even interviewed him and his band, but for my friend to do a session with Mr. Knight was so cool. I do want to mention that Robert’s wife, Maryanne, is an amazing photographer as well. Be sure to check out their website, linked below, to see both of their work.

She could not simply listen to the soundtrack of the 60s. She had to find a way inside of it… or, at least backstage. She is Glorious Groupie Goddess, Pamela Des Barres and she joins Weezy and Lisa for a captivating conversation about love, music and the cultural revolution that forever changed us all.Pamela reflects on coming of age as the buttoned-up 50s gave way to the clothing optional 60s, when rock music moved minds, stirred loins and invited adventure.Her “Meet The Beatles” album was not just a revelation. Pamela read it as an instruction. At 14, she and her Beatle besotted besties made their way into the hills of Bel Air, spotted a kid on a bike who looked like he lived there. He did. He was Jerry Lewis's son, Ronnie, and he let the girls into his backyard where they crawled through the Beatles-mansion-adjacent bushes and remained there all night until they were picked up, in the morning, not by the Beatles, but by the cops.By age 18, Pamela's tactics had blossomed into: 1) Look cute. 2) Be legally of age. 3) Knock on the stage door. Her subsequent friendships and romances with rock superstars are chronicled in her groundbreaking memoir, I'm With The Band. Here, Pamela reveals remarkable details about her relationships with Keith Moon, Mick Jagger, Jimmy Page, Gram Parsons, Frank Zappa, Jim Morrison and the legends of Laurel Canyon.Frank Zappa was so taken by the music muses that he fashioned Pamela and her fellow fangirls into a dance troupe called GTOs (Girls Together Outrageously). They set the dance tone at The Whiskey and The Shrine, eventually recording their own album! Today, Pamela continues to inspire new generations through her women's writing workshops, rock-and-roll tours, one-woman shows, and live events. She also hints at her next book, 'Sex, God and Rock 'n' Roll', revealing how a lifelong interest in spirituality has paralelled her passion for music.Plus, we challenge Pamela with a round of Rock Star Boyfriend Trivia!In media recommendations --Lisa: Lifestyle influencer Stephanie Joplin, @betterwithchardonnayWeezy: The series, A Woman Of Substance on BritboxPath Points of Interest:Pamela Des BarresBooks by Pamela Des BarresPamela Des Barres on WikipediaPamela Des Barres on FacebookPamela Des Barres on InstagramI'm With The Band by Pamela Des BarresStephanie JoplinA Woman Of Substance Media PathMedia Path on FacebookMedia Path on InstagramMedia Path on XLisa's Upcoming Comedy Dates at Flappers
What can live radio offer that an algorithm never will? I talk with WNCW radio host and Southern Songs and Stories creator Joe Kendrick about music discovery, public radio, human connection, and the changing music industry. Joe shares how childhood mixtapes led to more than 30 years at WNCW, where live DJs help listeners find new artists while reflecting the communities they serve. We also explore emergency broadcasting, vinyl records, streaming royalties, podcasting, bluegrass history, and why supporting artists and public media still matters. I believe you will enjoy Joe's stories and his clear reminder that technology can offer endless choice, but it cannot replace a trusted human voice. Highlights: 01:23 – How a small-town childhood shaped Joe's curiosity. 04:29 – How radio and mixtapes sparked his love of music. 17:49 – Why live radio creates a stronger human connection. 22:28 – How public radio supports people during crises. 31:16 – Why public radio still matters to communities. 41:38 – How streaming affects artists and music value. About the Guest: Fascinated by radio at an early age, I was having “driveway” moments by grade school, or at least moments when I wished my parents would let the song play out before cutting off the engine. My father's turntable, with its enchanting cue lamp shining on the platter's pattern of dots indicating whether it was at the correct speed, was like a lighthouse beckoning me to a land filled with yet-to-be discovered, electrified bliss. I was also enamored of stars on television, including sportscasters and newscasters, taking on their persona to call an imagined NASCAR race on a portable cassette recorder for example, and imitating Robin Williams in front of my fourth-grade class. By middle school, I got my first jam box and was off to the races with mix tapes, recording songs straight off the radio, my favorite study aid. I was keenly interested in not only the music on the radio but also how the DJs presented it, and would call in to make requests or to ask why they kept playing the Guns N' Roses songs I did not like. I started collecting music, primarily though tape clubs like Columbia House. I read Rolling Stone and wrote to the editor to disagree with a David Fricke review of Jimmy Page's album Outrider. By college, I was determined to become a DJ, the coolest job on the planet. At UNC-Chapel Hill, WXYC beckoned, and after trying and failing to get on staff (the screening process was quite challenging, filled with questions about music I had never heard of on commercial radio or in print), I landed there in my junior year. There, my musical horizons expanded beyond where I could have imagined when transfixed by that vintage Technics turntable spinning Queen's News of the World a few years before. There was more, of course, like college basketball (asking Dean Smith a question about how he coached his teams to shoot free throws so well at a student forum was likely my first brush with greatness), and a budding instinct to make sense of the world via the written word. Journalism school (specifically advertising) and hand-written album reviews at WXYC were early outlets. During and after college, there was also the occasional short story or essay, along with a few features on other passions like mountain biking, and more music reviews to write for zines and entertainment weeklies. Writing and radio remained an avocation for the next fifteen years, with a notable stretch of ten years as a franchise owner in the landscape lighting business dominating my resume before selling that and becoming full time morning host at public radio WNCW in 2006, where I had been volunteering following college before working part-time in the early 2000s. In the mid-1990s, I moved into the old family homestead, which my great-grandparents begun in the 1880s. I got married and had kids, and learned about being a husband and father, as well as how to take up the mantle of family legacy. Two ancestors who became more and more important in this legacy are Earl Scruggs (see: banjo) and W.J. Cash, author of The Mind of the South. Fast forward to 2014, and the concept for Southern Songs and Stories had taken firm root, after previous music-oriented endeavors Lingua Musica and What It Is had run their courses. As a video documentary series before lack of funds cut it short at two episodes, it became obvious that my ambitions outstripped my means, and making it a podcast was the way to go. DIY, y'all. Southern Songs and Stories is primarily a music artist-focused series, with interviews, music excerpts, and commentary. The concept of elision is my north star: I edit conversations to fit for length (typically a half hour each episode, currently) and for the overarching statements that each episode should make. Marrying concepts and focusing on the intersection of ideas is typically my goal, along with the foundational work of highlighting engaging conversations and music. My hope is to bring in casual fans and die-hards alike: whether you know anything about artist X, Y or Z, I aim to pull you into their world within the first three minutes and keep you engaged there for the remainder of each podcast. I also love working with a chain saw and making campfires, but that conversation can wait until we might connect later on.

This is a very nice recording of Jimmy Page and the Black Crowes, from June 24, 2000 in Tinley Park, IL. The show is a banger as is the norm for this tour. I play a soulful Bad Luck Blue Eyes with tasteful Jimmy licks throughout, the never played live by Zeppelin, In The Light (which shines with all those guitars), and fun and rollicking Out on the Tiles. A good time is to had. Come on in.
From the latest vinyl record collecting news to one of the biggest debates in music, this week's episode of Surface Noise is packed with opinions, hot takes, and plenty of opportunities for you to weigh in! We kick things off with Current Events, covering the biggest headlines from the world of vinyl records, record collecting, audiophile releases, upcoming reissues, pressing news, and everything happening across the Vinyl Community. Topics covered: (1) Iron Maiden sells their catalog and intellectual property. What is gained? What is lost? (2) Not one but TWO DSS (Definitive Sound Series) One-Step announcements, including one announced at the launch of a new album (new Beck record, "Ride Lonesome). (3) A rare record collection is going up for sale through another Discogs co-op, this time with Lance and his store, Permanent Records, out of Los Angeles. (4) The grass-roots campaign in the VC led by Steve Westman to get the attention of Led Zeppelin's Jimmy Page to reissue their catalog as Rhino Hi-Fidelity Audiophile releases. Will it work? Then we tackle a fascinating question: What's the difference between talent and skill? Are the greatest musicians naturally gifted, or have they simply mastered their craft through relentless work? We'll name some of the biggest artists in music history and debate whether they're truly talented, exceptionally skilled, both... or neither. This topic is sure to offend (you've been warned). If you love vinyl records, record collecting, classic rock, jazz, soul, metal, punk, country, live concerts, music history, audiophile discussions, record stores, Discogs, rare records, album collecting, and passionate conversations about music, this is an episode you won't want to miss. ⏬⏬⏬⏬ For more on host Concert Buddie: https://www.youtube.com/@ConcertBuddie https://concertbuddie.com IG: @concertbuddie For more guest Kendall (aka Spin Doctor and His Vinyl Mayhem): https://www.youtube.com/@spindoctorandhisvinylmayhem For more on guest Joel (Static ATX Records): https://staticatx.com IG: @staticatxrecords For more on Chris (Groove Seeker): https://www.youtube.com/@Groove_Seeker IG: @thegrooveseeker For more on Jason Roxas: https://www.youtube.com/@JasonRoxas For more information on Vinyl Community Podcasts: https://vinylcommunitypodcasts.com . . . .

Jeff Beck wasn't just one of the greatest guitarists of all time—he was one of rock's most fearless innovators.In this episode of Booked On Rock, I welcome Brad Tolinski and Chris Gill, authors of Blow By Blow: The Jeff Beck Story, for an in-depth conversation about the legendary guitarist's remarkable life and career. We explore Jeff's groundbreaking work with the Yardbirds, the Jeff Beck Group, 'Truth', 'Blow by Blow', his friendship with Jimmy Page, his collaborations with Stevie Wonder and Johnny Depp, the story behind "Superstition," the car accident that changed his career, and why he remained one of the most respected musicians in rock until his passing. Along the way, Brad and Chris separate fact from fiction, share stories uncovered through years of research and interviews, and explain why Jeff Beck's relentless creativity made him one of the most influential guitarists in music history.Purchase a copy of Blow By Blow: The Jeff Beck StoryFollow Chris Gill on InstagramFollow Brad Tolinski on FacebookSubscribe to Brad Tolinksy's Substack Page----------
Rock Talk Studio: Reviewing Rock 'n' Roll Books and Documentaries
Jeff Beck was a guitarist's guitarist-a restless genius who could do things that even contemporaries like Eric Clapton, Jimmy Page, and Jimi Hendrix couldn't touch. But why did one of the top five greatest guitarists of all time never achieve the same massive commercial success as his peers?The new book Blow by Blow: The Jeff Beck Story looks at the "Woodstock moment" that defined his career, his complicated artistic identity, and why his refusal to be "packaged" made him both a legend and an enigma. Plus, a look at "Jeff's Guitar Garage," a technical breakdown of the gear that powered his otherworldly sound.Support the showemail Big Rick at:info@rocktalkstudio.com

With his shag haircut and white Stratocaster guitar, Jeff Beck was an icon known and loved by millions. Yet somehow, he maintained the ineffable low profile cool of a cult hero as he glided through six decades of musical trends with nary a lapse in taste. Not to say he ever played it safe. What other guitarist can lay claim to performing with opera star Luciano Pavarotti, mainstream television personality Kelly Clarkson, and professional degenerates like Guns N' Roses with equal grace and wit? Or as Beck himself once quipped, “I'm an awkward son of a bitch when it comes to doing the expected.” In Blow by Blow: The Jeff Beck Story (Da Capo, 2026), Brad Tolinski and Chris Gill return to chart the unexplored life of rock's greatest and perhaps most enigmatic instrumentalist. Culled from approximately 30 hours of interviews with the late guitarist himself, numerous conversations with those closest to him, and extensive research, the book sheds new light on the genius that Jimmy Page once said, “shifted the whole sound and face of electric guitar music.” Learn more about your ad choices.

Welcome back to When Words Fail Music Speaks, the podcast where we explore how melody can lift us out of the darkest moments. In today's episode host James Cox sits down with legendary metal guitarist Phil Sandoval—co‑founder of Armored Saint—to uncover the raw, heartfelt story behind their upcoming record Emotional Factory Reset.From growing up in East LA's high‑school metal scene of the early‑80s to navigating today's streaming‑saturated landscape, Phil shares how the industry has shifted, why making a record now feels both easier and tougher, and what it means to “reset” our emotions in a world that feels chaotic. He opens up about the band's roller‑coaster history—being signed after just 52 shows, the painful departure and later return after guitarist Dave Pritchard's passing, and the deep gratitude that fuels his playing today.Listeners will also get a glimpse into Phil's personal coping tools: the therapeutic power of picking up a guitar (and even a piano), the importance of gratitude rituals, and his go‑to anthem for anyone battling depression. Plus, we dive into the quirky origin of the album's title—spun from a murder‑trial commentator's phrase—and Phil's all‑time musical heroes, from Jimmy Page to Dio and Jimi Hendrix.Whether you're a metalhead, a music‑lover, or someone searching for a lifeline in song, this conversation blends nostalgia, industry insight, and practical advice on using music as a mental‑health lifeline. Grab your headphones, hit “play,” and let Phil's story remind you that, sometimes, all it takes is a single chord to start a factory reset for the soul.
The Strange Brew - artist stories behind the greatest music ever recorded
Martin Barre is already playing when the evening begins. Recorded live at The CAT Club in December 2025, this is Barre in conversation with Jason Barnard. Hendrix turns up, and Jimmy Page, and a French chateau that put Jethro Tull in the bathroom for a week. So does a Grammy, won at home because the record label wouldn’t pay for flights. He also talks about his autobiography – wrote it four times. The first version was, by his own description, full of scores to settle. But he took all of it out. Further information martinbarre.com Support The Strange Brew Podcasts also available: Martin Barre – 50 Years of Jethro Tull, Ian Anderson, Greg Spawton – Big Big Train, Dave Pegg – Fairport Convention This podcast is also available on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, YouTube, Google apps and all usual platforms The post Martin Barre – live in conversation appeared first on The Strange Brew .
For today's episode I thought I'd share an archived interview from around twelve years ago, that I did with session drumming legend - Clem Cattini.Based in Stoke Newington, UK - Clem Cattini is an English drummer who was not only a member of 'The Tornados' but so prominent in the 50's, 60's and 70's that he is actually regarded as one of the most prolific drummers in UK recording history, appearing on hundreds of recordings by artists like Cliff Richard, Lou Reed, Marc Bolan, The Kinks, Herman's Hermits, The Yardbirds and Tom Jones. Clem and I talk about his work with a young Jimmy Page, how hard it was to get lessons back in the day, songwriting and of course his legendary drumming career - where he played on over 40 UK number one singles.For more information on Clem or his work, please search for him across all socials or google.For further information on Travis Marc or 'Musicians-Mentor' website, please visit www.musicians-mentor.com As usual, thanks for checking out the channel and if you're getting anything useful from my content, please feel free to comment, like, share and subscribe, thank you.

This week InObscuria exhumes those unmarked graves of unsigned artists! These bands may not have been signed to a major or gained internationally distributed success, but they were all rock stars to those lucky enough to hear and see them! Anyone who's ever been in a band and played local/regional shows knows that some of the best live acts and musicians (and friends) are met through sharing bills with other acts. We hope we turn you on to some great music that you may have otherwise never had a chance to hear! New to InObscuria? Every week your two hosts crawl down to the crypts to exhume obscure Rock n' Punk n' Metal in one of 3 categories: the Lost, the Forgotten, or the Should Have Beens. These are artists that are all amazing, but lost to most of the world. If you were there, you know! If you dig it… go dig it up and buy it! Support these artists and keep your devil horns high in the air! Songs this week include: Ghost Of You – “Heartbreak Creepin (feat. Tuk Smith)” from Heartbreak Creepin – Single (2022) Ghost of You I Love Rich – “Wake Up, Let Me Rock You” from Respect The Rich (2014) I Love Rich ELEMENT 117 – “You Gotta Get Away” from You Gotta Get Away - Single (2024) 117 Bliss – “Dreams And Fantasies” from Beatitude (1996) Planeside – “Dead & Gone” from Under The Circumstances, It's Not Such A Bad Idea… (2008) Planeside Dayroom – “Contagious” from Contagious (1996) Dayroom Leilani Kilgore – “Snake In The Grass” from Snake In The Grass - Single (2025) Leilani Kilgore Sunbrain – “Not So Stranger” from Good Side (1994) Sunbrain Toecutter – “Beer Song” from Toecutter (1993) Please subscribe everywhere that you listen to podcasts!

What if the key to becoming a better leader is not adding more goals to your list but stripping everything down to just one word? This week, Jon Goehring and Coach Jim Johnson sit down with Dan Britton, speaker, writer, coach, former professional lacrosse player, 34 year veteran of the Fellowship of Christian Athletes, founder of Sports Life Leadership, and co-author of nine books including the bestselling One Word, written alongside Jon Gordon and Jimmy Page. This conversation is one of the most personal and practically powerful the Lounge has delivered.Dan opens with a compelling vision of faith-based servant leadership, drawing on the example of Jesus at the last supper to illustrate what it looks like when a leader walks into every room with the posture of someone who is there to serve rather than to be served. He makes the case that servant leadership is not a soft concept but the most transformational leadership model in history, and challenges every listener to ask whether they are leading from a position of ego or a posture of humility.The conversation shifts into one of the richest discussions of coaching and correction the Lounge has had. Dan shares the lesson his quiet, unassuming high school football coach Sleepy Thompson taught him about accentuating the positive, and then draws a critical distinction that every leader needs to hear: there is a fundamental difference between being critical and offering correction, and great leaders know how to hold their people accountable without ever making them feel shamed.Dan then walks Jon and Coach through the one word concept, starting with the story of how a simple question from a friend on a three hour road trip in 1999 exposed the seven pages of goals he had been writing every year that he never actually completed. He explains why one word works where long goal lists fail, the difference between to do goals and to be goals, and how a single word can become the lens through which every dimension of your life, physical, mental, spiritual, emotional, relational, and financial, comes into focus throughout an entire year.The episode also delivers a masterclass on building your personal dream team, including the warriors who lock arms with you as peers, the watchmen who sit on the wall and see what you cannot yet see, and the workmen you are pouring into as a mentor. Dan shares how this framework carried him through one of the hardest transitions of his life when he left FCA after three decades and had to rediscover his identity from the ground up.The episode closes with Dan's two hour morning discipline routine, built over 35 years of leading in ministry, and a challenge to every leader to get right inside their own circle before unleashing themselves on the world around them.Whether you are drowning in goals that never seem to get done, navigating a major life transition, or simply looking for a leadership framework rooted in something deeper than ambition, this episode will stay with you.Connect with Dan: sportslifeleadership.com Grab One Word on Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/Word-That-Will-Change-Expanded/dp/1118809424

The Yardbird's Godfrey Townsend is Living a Rock 'n Roll Wet Dream Fourth time IS the charm. After way too many reschedulings, as with all things, this conversation with the Yardbirds' Godfrey Townsend happened exactly when it was intended. Lightning doesn't strike the same spot twice, and this was an electric circus of talk and music perfection. From jumping in at the opening with The Who's Won't Get Fooled Again, to Godfrey's masterpiece of Jeff Beck's, Cause We've Ended as Lovers, from Blow by Blow, which cracked my heart open and left me with goosebumps, in tears… to every single moment in between, this was heaven. I've fostered my share of conversations that have blown my mind; this is amongst the best of the best. For a girl whose moniker was RockGirl back in the day when Godfrey and I met decades ago, this conversation was truly a Rock 'N Roll wet dream. Godfrey not only shares stories with Jack Bruce, John Entwistle, Alan Parsons, Mark Farner, Dave Mason, Joey Molland, Todd Rundgren, Howard Kaylan, The Cowsills, Chuck Negron, The Association, Mark Volman… he's played with them all! And his stories and intimate experiences with them left me breathless. And then there's meeting Clapton, his divine private audience with Pete Townshend, his adorable Jimmy Page encounter and impression, meeting Beck! Has any rockin' stone been left unturned? Dammit, I didn't even ask about Mick and Keith! Next time. And there will be a next time. For the two hours of this, I trust there are so many more unmined gems. If rock's your thing, if you lived through the 60s till now, or just dig the music, Do Not Pass Go, Do Not Collect $200… hit the play button and hunker down for a wild, fun, and wonderful ride. An inside view from an insider. Consider this the audiobook of Godfrey's sure-to-come bestselling rock memoir. Hachachacha! LOVED IT! Godfrey Townsend Live on Game Changers With Vicki Abelson Wed, May 6, 5 pm PT, 8 pm ET Streamed Live on my FB, YouTube & LinkedIn

Guitar world magazine said: Blues-rock newcomer Amani Burnham's love of full-step bends, trills and pentatonic fills leads to inevitable Jimi Hendrix comparisons, but his style isn't outright mimicry – the 20-year-old happens to draw inspiration from the same well of artists as the guitar icon.

You know you've made it in the music industry when "Weird Al" Yankovic requests to parody your song. "Weird Al" has spent more than four decades turning hit songs into time capsules that often outlive the originals. In a career that includes Grammy Awards, Platinum records, best-selling tours and the number one album decades. On this episode of the Really? no Really? Podcast, Jason and Peter sit down with Al and discuss his journey being a shy kid on the accordion to being the king of parody music. "Weird Al" has an extensive library of parodies that not only spans genres and decades, it's also a reflection on music history and culture ranging from Madonna to Michael Jackson to Nirvana to Coolio just to name a few. But not everyone has been on board for the "Weird Al" bump. Jimmy Page is a fan of Al's but wasn't crazy about a Led Zepplin polka. Al, Jason and Peter delve more into this. We'll also discuss how Al's career has taken some pretty wild and amazing turns from selling out venues like Carnegie Hall and Madison Square Garden to writing his own parody biopic and casting Daniel Radcliffe playing himself.

NEW BOOK -- The Price of Becoming Buy it -- www.LearningLeader.com/Becoming The Learning Leader Show with Ryan Hawk This is brought to you by Insight Global. If you need to hire one person, hire a team of people, or transform your business through Talent or Technical Services, Insight Global's team of 30,000 people around the world has the hustle and grit to deliver. Jim Collins is the author of some of the most influential business books ever written — Good to Great, Built to Last, and Great by Choice. His concepts have become part of the leadership vocabulary. Level 5 Leadership. The Flywheel. First Who, Then What. The Hedgehog Concept. He spent more than a decade at Stanford as a professor and has advised CEOs, four-star generals, and heads of state. His new book is What to Make of a Life: Cliffs, Fog, Fire, and the Self-Knowledge Imperative. It is the product of ten years of research and is the most personal thing he has ever written. We flew to Boulder, Colorado, to record this one in person with Jim. Key Learnings Jim's grandfather wrote his own death story. Jimmy Collins was a test pilot in the 1930s. He told Jim's grandmother, Dolores, that if he died, she should pull the last chapter from his desk and publish it. He died in a test crash. After the service, she pulled out the chapter. The title was "I'm Dead." The last chapter, written in first person, described the plane coming out of the sky, the screaming wings, the crash. The final words, by his own pen: "I am dead now." For seven decades, his grandmother never cried. When Jim asked her in her nineties to tell the story of his grandfather, she cried and said, "Thank you for that. I've never cried before." She'd been a single mom in the middle of the Depression. Of all the things Jim feels good about in his life, asking her to tell that story before she died at almost 100 years old is one he's most proud of. A cliff is an event that alters the trajectory of your life and forces you to reconstruct everything that comes after. Jim's first big cliff: he lost his father while his father was still alive. Jim's father took the family to San Francisco in the 1960s. They lived a few houses down from Haight Street. When a man was shot dead on their doorstep, Jim's mom moved them to Boulder. They lived in a cold basement with cots and a hot plate. They couldn't afford a Christmas tree, so Jim and his brother rolled a boulder into the basement and called it their Christmas rock. The Greyhound bus moment. In high school, Jim took a Thanksgiving turkey on a Greyhound bus down to New Mexico, where his father was living in an adobe hut with a dirt floor. He had this romantic vision: they'd cook the turkey, share Thanksgiving, bond as father and son. The whole weekend, his father had no interest in him. He spent it trying to convince Jim to convince his grandmother to give him money. On the bus ride home, looking out the window into the fog, Jim realized: there will never, ever be a father there. No male role models. No frameworks. No guidance. "I've got this one life. What do I do with it?" The inflection point in Jim's life is Joanne. They got engaged four days after their first date. He'd admired her from afar for years but never had the courage to ask her out. Once they were together, Jim began a conscious process: I need to become a person worthy of being married to her. He didn't know exactly what that meant or how to get there. But he knew that was the work. Forty-six years later, it's still a never-ending journey. What Joanne does brilliantly: she sees what needs attention. Jim is encoded to hear it. Someone once asked Joanne what she thought Jim's greatest strength was. She said: "Jim takes critical feedback better than any person I've ever met." Joanne sees what needs attention. Jim hears it. Then they adapt and adjust. That's the inner flywheel of their marriage. Circle the wagons together. Guns pointing out, never at each other. When life gets really difficult, whether it's disease or other cliffs. You are always together. Always on the inside of the wagons. Never aimed at each other. Joanne won the 1985 Hawaii Ironman by 92 seconds. With a hamstring injury that limited her running training to 16 miles a week, she came off the bike with a 10-minute lead. Then mile by mile, the lead shrank. Nine minutes. Eight. Seven. With a few miles left, she stopped in the middle of the lava field, massaging her legs, almost pleading with them to run. She looked up at the sky. Then her gaze fixed somewhere down the road. She started to run. You're racing for self-respect. Joanne told Jim afterward: in the end, you're racing to know that you couldn't have run a step faster. Only you'll know. If you know you couldn't have run a step faster, that's actually winning. When Jim writes, he's on the lava fields. When he finishes a book, he wants to know he couldn't have written one sentence better. When you're on the lava fields, this is the moment you want to quit. Don't. Writing is thinking. When the writing isn't working, the thinking isn't clear. Go back to the data. Find the through-line. There are three types of luck: What luck. A cancer diagnosis. A guitar left in an empty house. An event that breaks your way. Who luck. The people who walk into your life. Joanne. Morten Hansen. Jerry Porras. Bill Lazier. Zeit luck. When what you're doing intersects with the surrounding zeitgeist. Jimmy Page was in Surrey when the British rock explosion happened. Luck is an event you didn't cause, with significant consequences, and an element of surprise. The big winners weren't luckier. They had a higher return on luck. What you do with luck events matters more than the luck itself. Bill Lazier: the closest thing to a father Jim ever had. Jim ended up in Bill's class at Stanford because the class he was trying to take was full. The random course-sorting mechanism threw him into the first class Bill ever taught. Pure WHO luck. Jim did not cause that. Discover your encodings. An encoding is a durable capacity of your intrinsic construction that resides within, awaiting discovery through the experiences of life. Jim has done over 300 online courses on every imaginable subject. Constitutional law. Napoleon. World War I. The history of China. He started them to learn how to teach. Then his curiosity took over. That's what an encoding looks like in the wild. You have a constellation of encodings. Like stars. When your life captures a bright set of those encodings, you're in frame. When it doesn't, you're out of frame. The same person can look amazing in frame and not very amazing out of frame. The most important finding from this book: don't follow anyone else's advice. Their advice is well-meaning. It may have worked beautifully for them. But it worked for them because it flowed from their encodings. And their encodings are not your encodings. Barbara McClintock and Grace Hopper. Two women who won the Nobel Prize and shaped computer science. McClintock was encoded for solitary work. She didn't even have a phone. She heard about her Nobel Prize on the radio. Hopper was encoded to work through people. She kept a pirate flag in her office and once stole furniture for her team in the middle of the night. Two completely different encodings. What they shared: their lives were in alignment with their encodings. Leadership is the art of getting people to want to do what must be done. It's not a trait. It's a choice. Anyone in any organization can lead, depending on their desire to make a difference. Nobody needs to wait for a title. Ryan's encoding is "the relentless persistence of invitation." Jim observed that Ryan has incredible encodings for what he'd describe as attractive persistence. Not pushy. Not aggressive. But persistent and welcoming. The invitation never goes away. The way you lead should be different from everyone else. Because you are encoded differently. Trust your encodings, not their playbook. Roger Sherman saved the U.S. Constitution. Twice. He created the bicameral legislature compromise. He insisted the Bill of Rights be amendments, not rewrites. Yet most people don't know his name. He almost never spoke. He listened in committees and waited for the precise moment to introduce just the right point to turn American history. Quiet. Behind the scenes. Uncharismatic. Unglamorous. Enormously effective. That was his encoding. You should largely ignore what other successful leaders did. It's marvelous to listen to. It might give you ideas. But everything that worked for them reflected their encodings, not yours. The work isn't to copy their playbook. The work is to discover your encodings and trust them. The color of Jim's fire changed. When he was younger, his fuel was rage, fury, and a sense of terror with no safety net. He used to worry that if he ever lost it, he'd lose his drive. What replaced it was a different kind of fire: the joy of curiosity, of being lost in giant projects, of marvelous conversations, of sharing what he's learned. His drive is higher than ever. It just feels a lot better now. The 3x3 reflective practice. After almost any conversation, teaching moment, or significant interaction, Jim writes down three things that went well and three things he could have done better. He's done it for years. He's now systematizing it. He doesn't pause to celebrate. He pauses to learn quickly and move on. At the top of Jim's notes for this conversation: "The biggest reminder for today, reconnecting with an old friend." That's the celebration. What could be a better celebration than reconnecting with somebody you've had marvelous conversations with? Reflection Questions What is your most significant cliff? What did you reconstruct on the other side, and what are you still rebuilding? What are your encodings? Not what you've been told you should be, but what genuinely flows from your intrinsic construction. When have you felt most in frame? Like Jim with Joanne, is there a person or purpose you are actively trying to become worthy of? What would that work look like this week?

This episode is a little different. It's still about music, but from a very particular perspective. My guest is author Daniel Rachel. He's written some fantastic books like Isle of Noise (about UK songwriters) and The Lost Album of The Beatles. His latest release may be his most controversial. It's called This Ain't Rock ‘n' Roll: Pop Music, The Swastika, & The Third Reich. In it, Daniel explores the fascination musicians have had with Nazi imagery, symbolism, and paraphernalia. There are some connections you've probably heard of, like Jimmy Page and Lemmy. But there are others that you might not be aware of, like The Human League and Nick Cave. Daniel and I talk through how the British, especially in the 60's and 70's, used symbols as a way of mocking Nazi-ism. We also talk about a seeming resurgence in the symbolism, particularly through artists like Kanye West. The book gives facts and tells stories. But, importantly, it lets the readers draw their own conclusions. It was a fascinating read, especially if you like music & history. I recommend picking it up.

There were few faces as recognizable to anyone with an interest in the occult as his was in the twentieth century. His clean-shaven head and piercing eyes got the attention of everyone from would-be disciples in the 1920s to rock stars in the 1960s. Musicians like the Beatles put him on the cover of their Sgt. Pepper album and Ozzy Osborne used his name as the title of one of his songs. Jimmy Page from Led Zeppelin was an ardent collector of his books, relics, and artifacts and he even bought the man's home on the shores of Loch Ness in Scotland – yes, that Loch Ness, where the monster lives.But the former owner of that home was a monster of another kind. His name was Aleister Crowley, and he not only was a man closely linked to the Devil and the occult, but he also helped to shape the rabid interest in the occult that exploded in America decades after his death.Our Sponsors:* Check out Shopify: https://shopify.com/hauntingsAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

Zakk Wylde opens up about Ozzy's final show, the 17 days that followed, Dimebag's unfinished recordings, and the making of Black Label Society's crushing new album Engines of Demolition. Topics Include: Zakk runs on 14 pots of Valhalla coffee every single day. He was invited to Back to the Beginning well in advance. Tony Iommi, Jimmy Page, and Ritchie Blackmore are mythical heroes to Zakk. No More Tears was rehearsed but Ozzy pulled it on the day. Ozzy was giddy meeting Axl Rose — couldn't believe it was happening. Zakk watched Sabbath's final set alongside Axl Rose and Sharon Osbourne. Just 17 days after the show, Ozzy passed away unexpectedly. They'd been texting memes and planning another record together right until the end. Zakk envisioned a global Back to the Beginning charity tour series. A sober Zakk and Ozzy watched their blasted crew destroy a Tokyo restaurant. Dimebag left hours of unfinished song ideas on tape for potential release. Playing Dime's solos means staying faithful — like Stevie Ray covering Hendrix. Zakk and Eddie Van Halen's amp, calling it life-altering history. Engines of Demolition was built across several years alongside the Pantera Celebration tour. Zakk confirms BLS, Zakk Sabbath, and more Pantera shows are all coming.

What really happened at the Ambassador East Hotel in Chicago after a late-night dinner at the Pump Room in 1969? It has been whispered in certain circles for decades that Jimmy Page made musical history with Joe Walsh in Room 6 with nothing more than two guitars, a pizza box, and a four-track recorder. Join Janda on this special Behind The Song podcast exclusive as she traces that night and the origins of the long-lost song they allegedly recorded, “Angel On The CTA.” Featuring a guest appearance by Joe Walsh himself to explain what happened to the tapes, this April 1st episode of Behind The Song changes everything we thought we knew about two of rock's most legendary characters.

Episode Description:This was one of those interviews where James thought he was talking about leadership—and realized halfway through that he was really talking about responsibility.Jocko Willink doesn't use buzzwords. He doesn't soften the message. He talks about ego, blame, and why most problems—at work and in life—don't come from bad systems but from leaders who won't take ownership.What struck James most wasn't the battlefield stories. It was how calmly Jocko explained things everyone avoids: hard conversations, personal discipline, and the quiet habits that prevent disasters before they happen. No theatrics. No motivation talk. Just clarity.Listening back now, years later, this episode feels even more relevant. The ideas haven't aged at all. If anything, they matter more.What You'll Learn:Why ego—not lack of skill—is the biggest obstacle to leadershipHow taking ownership defuses blame and accelerates problem-solvingWhy hard conversations get easier when you have them earlyHow decentralized command builds trust and better decisionsWhy discipline creates freedom in work, creativity, and personal lifeTimestamped Chapters:[00:00] Handling criticism, ego, and emotional control[03:00] Introduction: Jocko Willink, Extreme Ownership, and Way of the Warrior Kid[06:00] Kids, insecurity, and learning discipline early[08:00] Combat decision-making and pausing under pressure[11:00] Friendly fire, responsibility, and the origin of “Extreme Ownership”[12:30] Blame vs. ownership in business and life[15:00] Ego as the real obstacle to leadership[17:00] How leaders share blame without losing authority[18:30] Clarifying expectations: writing, follow-ups, and alignment[20:00] Avoiding confrontation—and why it backfires[22:00] Hard conversations: why earlier is always easier[24:00] Escalation, accountability, and firing as leadership failure[25:30] Being proactive instead of reactive[26:30] Why Jocko joined the SEALs[28:00] The “dry years”: training for war that never came[30:00] Discipline equals freedom[31:30] Discipline in art and creativity (Jimmy Page example)[33:00] Commander's intent vs. micromanagement[35:00] Decentralized command and trusting your team[37:00] Managing micromanagers by over-communicating[41:00] Leadership problems vs. process problems[44:00] Sleep, routines, and daily discipline[47:00] Way of the Warrior Kid and teaching confidence[49:30] Jiujitsu as discipline, restraint, and self-control[54:00] Confidence reduces conflict[58:00] Discipline, freedom, and building a personal code01:03:00] National strength and deterrence[01:05:00] War, leadership, and human nature[01:08:00] Why veterans think twice about war[01:10:00] Perspective from real suffering[01:13:00] Gratitude in modern life[01:15:00] Studying hardship to build humility[01:18:00] Comfort vs. resilience[01:20:00] Perspective, sacrifice, and responsibility[01:26:00] Paying tribute to endurance and resilience[01:28:00] Closing reflections and sign-offSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
