In the wake of last week's Rock and Roll Hall of Fame episode, Kevin and the Mayor check out documentaries about two of the nominees: Luther Vandross and Jeff Buckley. (Kevin also stumbled upon a 1985 movie starring Tatum O'Neal and Irene Cara that we suspect has never been seen by anyone else ever.) And we brave the mean streets of Allston, Massachusetts (featuring poorly shoveled sidewalks and drunk college kids) to see a couple of wonderful bands: Foxy Shazam (those glam rock maniacs responsible for the Peacemaker opening theme song) and Descartes a Kant (a Mexican quartet with Devo-style costumes and a super-cool retro-futuristic concept album). Plus: The Mayor is a guest on a couple of other podcasts (The Doctor's Beard and The 42cast) to discuss Doctor Who, Witchblade, and perhaps other nerd stuff. The Mayor on The 42cast!

If you ever needed proof that the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame is less a museum and more a cultural argument with a gift shop, Episode 13 of On The Record opens by doing what the institution does best: stretching the phrase “rock and roll” until it politely accommodates everyone from Wu‑Tang Clan to Shakira, with a quick stop at INXS (or, as Michael once heard on the BBC, the new Australian sensation “Inks”). Brian runs through the 2026 nominee list like a gig guide for the afterlife—The Black Crowes, Jeff Buckley, Joy Division/New Order, Oasis, Phil Collins (solo, because apparently we're double-dipping now), Melissa Etheridge, Lauryn Hill, New Edition, Pink, Luther Vandross—and lands on the question that always makes the Hall quietly hilarious: who is this for, exactly? Michael's baffled by the ceremony mechanics (do nominees really “turn up hoping”?), while Brian reassures him it's not quite the Oscars, before casually dropping the detail that there's a public vote. Nothing says rock's rebellious spirit like “exercise our democratic right” via a link. The more interesting subtext, though, is what induction inevitably drags in: absence. Several nominees have key members who've died—Buckley, Michael Hutchence, Ian Curtis—prompting the kind of morbid logistics only a Hall of Fame can inspire. Michael wonders aloud whether New Order could be coaxed into a once-only appearance, and if so, would Peter Hook be anywhere near the bass, given the long-running fallout. Rock history, as ever, is part music, part family law. From there, the episode pivots into “telly as coping mechanism” territory.  Michael has started season two of Hijack, acknowledging (with Idris Elba's own executive-producer embarrassment) the inherent silliness of re-hijacking a man who has already been hijacked.  Brian, meanwhile, goes looking for light relief in bleak news cycles and discovers Resident Alien—a show he'd dismissed as fluff until it turns out to be fluff with enough teeth to feel like therapy. The alien-in-a-small-town premise becomes an excuse for a few sharp jokes about humanity's trajectory. But the main event is the week's shared homework: Paul McCartney: Man on the Run, the new documentary spanning the years between the Beatles' breakup and Lennon's murder.  Brian begins with dread—opening on “Silly Love Songs” is hardly a confidence-builder—but both hosts admit the film wins them over. They praise the craft: strong editing, collage-like imagery, and an effective “no talking heads (but their voices)” approach. Then they do the responsible thing and ask the awkward question: how honest can a documentary be when McCartney's own company financed it? Their answer is satisfyingly unresolved. Michael argues it's “warts-and-all enough” to avoid feeling like a total snow job—especially when the film lets other musicians (Nick Lowe, Chrissie Hynde) politely wonder what on earth Paul was thinking during the early, patchy years.  Brian agrees McCartney produced plenty of throwaway material, though he'll still go in to bat for Band on the Run and even dares to defend “Coming Up” (which Michael treats as a personal affront).  They both wish the doco lingered longer on the Lagos chapter, one of the few moments in the Wings story that feels like true risk rather than post-Beatles reputation management. The emotional spine, however, is Scotland. The documentary's portrayal of McCartney retreating to a remote farm with Linda is read here not as quaint pastoral cosplay, but as a survival strategy—grief, disorientation, and the sudden absence of the band-as-family.  The hosts talk candidly about parental loss, the Beatles as McCartney's “emotional prop,” and Lennon as the creative foil who kept Paul's “twee” instincts on a leash.  Linda comes out of it as both partner and lightning rod: necessary to him, mercilessly judged by everyone else.  Along the way, Brian remembers seeing Wings at the Myer Music Bowl in 1975 (yes, he was there), and the hosts revive Norman Gunston as the patron saint of awkward interviews—plus Michael's conspiracy theory that McCartney's infamous Japan marijuana bust may have been a deliberate exit strategy from a tour that Wings' hearts weren't in.  It's ridiculous. It's also, perversely, the kind of narrative logic rock biographies thrive on. By the end, the Hall of Fame is still a “broad church,” McCartney is still a genius with a questionable edit button, and Scotland remains the unlikely setting for both reinvention and retreat.  The biggest twist is that for two men who can't even land a sponsor, they spend 30 minutes proving the oldest rock cliché true: the past is never really over—someone's just nominated it.

A new Valentine's Day Uncuffed My Mixtape, where Eric Allen shares his favorite song: "If this world were mine," by Cheryl Lynn and Luther Vandross 

In this episode, I'm joined by Grammy-winning keyboardist, composer, producer, and arranger Jason Miles - an artist whose legacy spans decades of music-making across jazz, R&B, and beyond, and whose work has helped define the sound and direction of multiple musical eras, working alongside some of the most influential voices in modern music like Miles Davis, Luther Vandross, Grover Washington Jr., David Sanborn and Marcus Miller, to name a few.No less than Roberta Flack said about him, “Jason Miles has raised the level of excellence for the musicians who have had the good fortune of working with him, myself included. He has enriched the lives of millions of people.” And Miles Davis, in his 1991 autobiography, labelled Jason a genius - not a term he threw around!Jason and I met here in Lisbon, and what started as a conversation became a very honest and enriching exchange for me. I'm grateful to have had the opportunity to sit down with him.This podcast explores the journey behind the music - the decisions, mindset, and lessons that shape a sustainable creative life, especially in today's DIY landscape. We begin our interview by talking about what Luther Vandross understood about music that most musicians never quite grasp.From there, Jason shares the biggest lessons he's learned across his outstanding career — we explore creative decision-making, trust on the business side of music, and his perspective on today's jazz landscape compared to the past, as well as Jason's 2026 musical projects.This conversation is about practises that still guide artists today. If you're an independent musician looking for clarity and perspective, I am sure you'll find a lot of inspiration in hearing Jason's stories, reflections and guiding principles.Jason Miles - Links:WebsiteThe Extraordinary Journey of Jason MilesBandcampTable of contents:00:00 Intro03:29 Luther Vandross's integrity & intention14:26 Advice for DIY artists: listen & learn21:16 Why decision-making matters22:19 Trust in the business side of music23:11 Dealing with rejection26:11 Today's jazz landscape28:27 Jason Miles' 2026 projectsAs you listened, what reflection stayed with you the most?Let's talk about today's episode:

Send us a textIn this episode, Makosi explores the quiet but powerful question shaping culture in 2026: what actually makes someone relevant?Using three real moments from this week's pop culture — the controversial silence around Melania Trump's documentary, the values-driven statements made on the Grammy Awards stage, and the explosive energy of iShowSpeed's African tour — this episode unpacks the difference between attention, noise, and lasting relevance.Makosi reflects on why many people tuned into the Grammys expecting artists to speak out about immigration and ICE, why silence can be more controversial than outrage, and how a simple, human moment involving Cher accidentally brought Luther Vandross back into collective memory.This is not a gossip episode.It's a thoughtful conversation about timing, moral responsibility, cultural alignment, and why relevance today is less about being loud — and more about being felt.If you're navigating leadership, visibility, influence, or simply trying to stay grounded in a very noisy world, this episode will change how you think about power, silence, and what truly lasts.Support the show

Ricki & Tim broadcast from their new studio for the first time and Tim was absolutely not having it—he hated everything about the change while Ricki tried to keep it together. The handball vs downball vs upball debate continued after a Melbournian TikToker reignited Australia's most divisive schoolyard argument, with listeners calling in from every state with different names for the same game. A legendary songwriter got mistaken for Ghislaine Maxwell at the Grammys because of their similar hairstyles, and the internet lost it. Australian Idol returned with over a million viewers and some incredible auditions that'll make you cry.

In this episode of Hip Hop What Ifs, we explore one of the most intriguing "almost" moments in cinematic history: the possibility of DJ Jazzy Jeff and The Fresh Prince (Will Smith) taking the lead roles in the 1990 classic House Party. We pull back the curtain on the unexpected legal battle that started it all, involving a copyright infringement lawsuit filed by New Line Cinema over the duo's hit song "A Nightmare on My Street". As part of a potential settlement to offset the lawsuit, the studio offered the pair several film scripts, with House Party being one of the primary options on the table. The discussion dives deep into why the duo ultimately passed on the project, including DJ Jazzy Jeff's hesitation regarding the film's heavy focus on dancing. We also examine the creative vision of director Reginald Hudlin, who originally developed the story as his college thesis at Harvard, inspired by the vibe of Luther Vandross's "Bad Boy Tonight". You will learn how the search for a "black hip hop group" led Hudlin to Kid 'n Play after witnessing their massive fan reception in New York, a move that would define the culture of the early 90s. Finally, we analyze the "Butterfly Effect" of this casting choice. We compare the popularity of Jazzy Jeff and The Fresh Prince against Kid 'n Play in the late 80s, debating whether the film would have reached the same heights without the specific chemistry and iconic dance moves of the legendary duo. We also touch on the supporting cast that rounded out the masterpiece, including the introduction of a young Martin Lawrence, the bullying presence of Full Force, and the comedic brilliance of Robin Harris and John Witherspoon.

There were history-making moments, as well as awkward ones, at last night's 68th annual Grammy Awards. Cher's Lifetime Achievement Award presentation went off the rails and culminated with her introducing Luther Vandross as the winner of the Record of the Year. (Vandross passed away 21 years ago.) The night also included interesting outfits, ICE references, and a Trevor Noah joke that prompted Pres. Trump to promise a lawsuit. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The Grammys were pure chaos—Cher forgot to present an award, walked off stage, came back and accidentally announced Luther Vandross as the winner (he died in 2005). Bieber performed in his boxers, Lola Young dropped an F-bomb, and Olivia Dean won Best New Artist. Brooklyn Beckham's getting roasted for making "spaghetti bolognese" with orechiette pasta instead of actual spaghetti—guess he couldn't ear the recipe properly. A UFC fighter's toupee got knocked off mid-fight and he blamed his mum's shampoo. We opened the mailbag after announcing the big changes and listeners are in their feelings. Plus Mariah sat stone-faced watching artists attempt her impossible songs at the MusiCares tribute—her shade face was everything.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The Grammys were absolutely chaotic and we're breaking down all the best moments. Cher was supposed to present Record of the Year but instead ad-libbed about her career, then just walked off stage without giving out the award—Trevor Noah had to call her back, and when she finally read the winner she accidentally said Luther Vandross (who died in 2005) instead of Kendrick Lamar. F-bombs were dropping left and right, Jamie Foxx wore the same giant novelty hat he had on at dinner with us, and Beyoncé showed up fashionably late with just Jay-Z, Blue Ivy, and her bodyguard at a tiny table. Bieber performed in his boxers and socks with his eyes closed the entire time, and somehow Michelle Yeoh got a Razzie nomination for Wicked even though Defying Gravity won a Grammy.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

On this week's episode of Artist Friendly, Joel Madden is joined by Richard Marx. Marx delivered his self-titled debut album in the spring of 1987 and has kept up the pace, adding over a dozen more to his catalog since. All the while, he frequently showed up on the pop charts, shared a Grammy for Song of the Year with Luther Vandross, and sang background vocals on Madonna's “White Heat.” In 2021, he released a memoir called Stories to Tell, which unpacked his four-decade career, but it also serves as the title of his podcast. This week, the roles are reversed, sitting down with Madden to delve into his latest full-length, After Hours, and beyond. Listen to their conversation on Artist Friendly wherever you listen to podcasts.

This week on Cultural Manifesto, we remember some of the notable Indiana musicians and music figures who passed away in 2025. Join us as we honor the lives of artists who shaped funk, rock, music education, and global psychedelia — including:  Fort Wayne guitarist Gray Brabson, also known as G Money, whose work with the funk band Trust produced the cult-classic 1978 single “Funk Power,” later rediscovered by collectors and reissued by Numero Group. Indianapolis funk keyboardist DeMorris “Dee Gee” Smith, a deeply connected figure in the city's soul and funk scene who also performed with national acts including the Bar-Kays, Natalie Cole, Luther Vandross, and Bootsy Collins. Indianapolis trumpet player Ron Hedrick, best known for his work with Ebony Rhythm Funk Campaign. Indiana-born bassist Toby Myers, whose career bridged the state's rock scene and the global stage through his long tenure with John Mellencamp, as well as his earlier work with Roadmaster and later contributions to Lisa Germano's landmark 4AD release. Gladys Stone Wright, a pioneering West Lafayette band director, conductor, and composer who helped redefine the role of women in band leadership and co-founded the Women Band Directors National Association.  And Indianapolis-based writer, scholar, and musician Stan Denski, a central figure in documenting and preserving psychedelic music history. As a co-founder of OR Records, a member of the band Many Bright Things, and a key contributor to the influential Love, Peace & Poetry compilation series, Denski helped bring psychedelic music from Africa, Asia, and Latin America to wider attention.

We've been celebrating our 10th anniversary all year by digging in the vaults to re-present classic episodes with fresh commentary. Today, for our final "classic episode" of 2025, we're revisiting our 2020 conversation with "All I Want for Christmas" co-writer Walter Afanasieff. Happy holidays and thanks for a great year of looking back together as we continue to look toward the future!ABOUT WALTER AFANASIEFFThirteen-time Grammy nominee and two-time winner Walter Afanasieff is best known for his collaborative songwriting and production partnership with Mariah Carey that yielded hit singles such as “Can't Let Go,” “Dreamlover,” “Hero,” “Without You,” “Anytime You Need a Friend,” “Butterfly,” “My All,” and “One Sweet Day,” a duet with Boyz II Men that was named ASCAP Song of the Year. It hit #1 in December of 1995 and stayed there for sixteen weeks—a record that remained unbroken for more than two decades. Their “All I Want for Christmas is You” was released in 1994 and has since become a holiday standard. It hit #1 on Billboard's pop chart for the first time in 2019, giving Walter and Mariah the world record for the longest period of time between a song's original release and its arrival at the top of the chart.  In addition to his success with Carey, Afanasieff carved out a formidable reputation as a go-to producer of hit movie songs. After co-writing and co-producing the Gladys Knight single “License to Kill” from the James Bond film of the same name, he went on to produce “Beauty and the Beast,” “A Whole New World” from Aladdin, “Even If My Heart Would Break” from The Bodyguard, and “My Heart Will Go On” from Titanic, which became the best-selling single in the world for 1998. Additionally he produced “Some Day” from The Hunchback of Notre Dame and the Academy Award nominated “Go the Distance” from Hercules.Other hits from the Walter Afanasieff songbook include “Can You Stop the Rain,” a #1 R&B single for Peabo Bryson that earned a Grammy nomination for Best R&B Song, “Missing You Now,” a #1 Adult Contemporary hit for Michael Bolton, “If You Go Away,” a Top 20 single for New Kids on the Block, Savage Garden's #1 pop single “I Knew I Loved You,” and Ricky Martin's massive global hit “She Bangs.”The long list of additional artists Walter has written and produced music for includes Michael Jackson, Lionel Richie, Luther Vandross, Destiny's Child, Kenny G, Andrea Bocelli, Johnny Mathis, Kenny Loggins, Barbra Streisand, Christina Aguilera, Marc Anthony, Babyface, and Josh Groban.   Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
