In the early hours of March 3, 1993, someone snuck into the Maryland home of Millie Horn, where she lived with her disabled eight-year-old son, Trevor, and his nurse, Janice Saunders. After shooting both women in the head multiple times, the intruder smothered Trevor Horn to death, then quietly left the house. Hours later, the bodies of all three were discovered by Millie's sister, who stepped by to check on them.Almost immediately, suspicion fell on Millie Horn's ex-husband, Lawrence, who lived thousands of miles away in California, but with whom she'd spoken just hours before the murders occurred. In time, investigators were able to establish a financial motive, linking Lawrence Horn to the murders, yet they were unable to place Horn in Maryland when the murders occurred. Ultimately, Lawrence Horn would be tried and convicted for all three murders, but by that time, he wasn't sole perpetrator of the crime. And when prosecutors were finally able to pin down the men responsible for the deaths, it turned out the killers received guidance from a very surprising source.Recommendations:Phantasma By Kaylie SmithHappy Place By Emily HenryReferencesAssociated Press. 1993.

Guest: Elena Bonomo, drummer for SIX. Originally released January 14, 2022.This is one of those conversations that still holds up years later.In this episode, Elena Bonomo talks through what it actually looks like to build a career in theater music from the ground up. Elena shares how early musical experiences with her family shaped her connection to music, why drums always felt like fun instead of work, and how getting her first drum set set everything in motion.We also talk about her early pit experiences, reading music at a young age, and how playing school musicals laid the foundation for what she does now. She breaks down her time at Berklee, why versatility mattered to her more than locking into one lane, and how musical theater work at school mirrored the real expectations of Broadway life.Elena also gets honest about touring right after school, making very little money, and learning the realities of life on the road. From there, she talks about cruise ship work, adaptability, and how every gig, even the unglamorous ones, added tools to her toolbox.If you're trying to understand how Broadway careers are actually built over time, this episode is full of perspective that's still relevant today.https://www.elenabonomo.comThis Substack is reader-supported.

In this episode, I sit down with drummer David Northrup for a deep and wide-ranging conversation about groove, longevity, and serving the song. David has built an incredible career by doing precisely that, whether he's playing traditional country, blues, soul, or roots-based music. We start by talking about his current work with Joe Nichols, why it's such a musical and personal fit, and what it means to work for an artist who values authenticity, consistency, and real country music. David shares stories from the road and explains why being a good human is just as important as being a great drummer.We spend time digging into David's early musical influences growing up in central New York, where constant exposure to Motown, singer-songwriter records, pop radio, and classic albums shaped his musical instincts. David talks about learning by listening, studying album credits, and developing a deep appreciation for feel and style long before social media or online tutorials existed. He reflects on how that environment taught him to truly listen, absorb, and respect the music rather than chase trends.David walks through his path to becoming a professional drummer, from starting in school band programs to a pivotal moment when he saw Chuck Mangione perform while in college. That experience helped him realize music was the path he needed to take seriously. We talk about the importance of mentors, including teachers who challenged him when he wasn't ready and supported him when he was, and how discipline, fundamentals, and humility played a massive role in his development.We dive deep into David's years in Nashville, including his first five years building connections, studio work, and eventually landing his long-running gig with Travis Tritt. David explains how Nashville truly is a five-year town, why patience matters, and how preparation and professionalism keep you working once you get the call. We also talk about his deep admiration for drummers like Carlos Vega, Jeff Porcaro, Steve Jordan, Russ Kunkel, and others, and why groove, taste, and feel will always matter more than flash.A significant highlight of the conversation is David's time touring with Boz Scaggs. He shares what it was like to step into such an iconic musical legacy, learn to play with conviction at very low volumes, and work alongside world-class musicians night after night. We talk about why playing the room matters, how restraint can be more complicated than power, and why those lessons apply to every drummer at every level.We also spend time talking about David's solo record Shapes, including how it came together over many years, the musicians involved, and why recording live, organic performances was central to the album's sound. David explains his philosophy of making music that's groove-focused, accessible, and enjoyable for listeners beyond just musicians. We close by discussing teaching, clinics, the importance of shuffle feel, regional time concepts, and the soft skills that help musicians not just get gigs but keep them. It's an honest, thoughtful conversation packed with wisdom for musicians and music lovers alike.To learn more about David, visit his website.

“Politics taught me and prepared me for a world that is more political than politics.” Wayne County Commissioner (District 2) and 13th Congressional District Democratic Party Chair Jonathan Kinloch joins Detroit is Different for a Detroit-rooted, world-spanning conversation that starts at Second & Myrtle—“you know you're Detroit when you remember” it was once Myrtle, now MLK—and reaches back to South Carolina and New Jersey family migrations. Kinloch breaks down how elders like Erma Henderson wrapped their arms around a young volunteer, handing him the City Charter and saying, “I want you to read that and… explain it to me,” then sending him to police, planning, and historic commission meetings to learn how power really moves. From Northwestern's Motown pipeline—meeting Esther Gordy Edwards—to giving artists civic honors, Kinloch reveals the thread between culture and governance: legacy is built when we protect the block, the schools, and the ballot. He names Reagan-era disinvestment, party infrastructure fights, and why “this bipartisan thing is… bull crap” when working families need results. This episode ties past and future Black Detroit: migration, mentorship, music, and the mandate to organize precinct by precinct so our people steer what's next. Tap in for stories, strategy, and Detroit love. Detroit is Different is a podcast hosted by Khary Frazier covering people adding to the culture of an American Classic city.

Join Here: ⁠https://ow.ly/msoH50WCu0K⁠In this segment of Notorious Mass Effect, Analytic Dreamz delivers a sharp, data-driven analysis of Bruno Mars' explosive lead single “I Just Might,” released January 9, 2026, via Atlantic Records—the first preview of his fourth solo album The Romantic, set for February 27, 2026.Born October 8, 1985, Bruno Mars has sold over 200 million singles globally, earned multiple Grammys, and defined retro revivalism through 1970s disco, funk, soul, and Motown influences. After 24K Magic (2016), Silk Sonic, and recent smashes like “Die With a Smile” and “APT.,” this marks his first solo album in nearly a decade.Co-written/produced by Mars, D'Mile, Philip Lawrence, and Brody Brown, the mid-tempo disco-pop/pop-soul cut layers funk guitar, bold brass, and pristine vocals with nods to Leo Sayer's 1976 classic “You Make Me Feel Like Dancing.” The co-directed music video (Bruno Mars & Daniel Ramos; choreography by Mars & Phil Tayag) features a 1970s soundstage, multi-instrumental performance, and “clone” versions of Mars, quickly surpassing 11 million YouTube views.Early metrics (as of January 13-14, 2026) set career highs: Spotify US debut #1 (1.94M Day-1 streams), Global #3 (4.97M Day-1)—his largest solo Spotify global debut ever. It instantly topped US iTunes and claimed 71% of votes in Billboard's Best New Music poll, outpacing The Kid LAROI, Zach Bryan, and Robyn. Release triggered catalog resurgence, with “That's What I Like” and “Locked Out of Heaven” re-entering Billboard Global 200 charts, placing four Mars tracks simultaneously.Analytic Dreamz examines the strategic rollout: no genre reinvention, but flawless execution leveraging nostalgia, polished showmanship, and fan demand for elite streaming, digital sales, and immediate approval. Positive reception highlights catchiness, dance-floor energy, and nostalgia; pushback includes creative stagnation critiques and renewed cultural appropriation discussions around retro Black music homage. Yet the data underscores commercial dominance, priming The Romantic—a romantic, retro-forward feel-good project—for strong first-week impact, amplified by The Romantic Tour (April–October 2026 across North America, Canada, Europe; presale January 14, onsale January 15; supports DJ Pee .Wee/Anderson .Paak, Leon Thomas, Raye, Victoria Monét).Join Analytic Dreamz for this no-fluff breakdown of Bruno Mars' strategically perfect 2026 comeback launch.

Alors qu'il est élevé au rang de prince de la soul, Marvin Gaye ne parvient pas à se défaire de ses démons. Marqué par une enfance sous le signe de la violence et de l'emprise, le chanteur semble incapable de trouver la sérénité. En 1981, paranoïaque, alcoolique et cocaïnomane, Marvin Gaye fuit les Etats-Unis pour Ostende, petite ville paisible sur le littoral belge. Là-bas, il trouve un semblant de réconfort, mais doit rapidement quitter son quotidien tranquille pour retourner auprès de sa mère malade. Le voilà de nouveau face à face avec son père, Marvin Gay Sr, responsable de ses maux, et bientôt de sa mort.Crimes • Histoires Vraies est une production Minuit. Notre collection s'agrandit avec Crimes en Bretagne, Montagne et Provence.

Cette semaine dans Crimes · Histoires Vraies, vous avez découvert l'affaire Marvin Gaye. Cet icône de la soul aux chansons inoubliables est tué par balles chez lui, en 1984, la veille de ses 45 ans,. Le responsable ? Son propre père. Prédicateur d'Église, très religieux mais alcoolique de longue date, il le battait depuis l'enfance... Lors de son procès, il est condamné à six ans de prison avec sursis. Mais il n'avait ni plaidé coupable ni non-coupable. Comment est-ce possible ? C'est un concept juridique dans le droit états-unien et de certains pays du commonwealth (les anciennes colonies britanniques), qu'on appelle nolo-contendere ou no contest plea. Voici ce que cela signifie.

Before they hit the road for 15 dates around the country on their 'Green Electric Tour', Sarah McLeod and Dallas Frasca joined Bern Young to go through some of their favourite tracks from '60s America.

Le voilà de nouveau face à face avec son père, Marvin Gay Sr, responsable de ses maux, et bientôt de sa mort.Fin 1983. Marvin Gaye a complètement rechuté. Il est épuisé, accro à la cocaïne, insomniaque, rongé par la paranoïa. Il croit que des gens veulent sa mort. Il parle de menaces, de complots, d'argent détourné. Il regarde par les fenêtres, ouvre les rideaux, les referme, vérifie les portes, les verrous, les armes. Dans cette maison, il y a son père, Marvin Gay Sr. Alcoolique, violent, amer. Toujours prédicateur, même sans église. Toujours en colère, même sans raison. Trente ans de rancoeur cumulent dans cet espace clos. Le succès de Marvin ne signifie rien ici.Crimes • Histoires Vraies est une production Minuit. Notre collection s'agrandit avec Crimes en Bretagne, Montagne et Provence.

Joe Bergamini on Subbing, Broadway Reality, and Building a Real Music CareerIn this episode of the Broadway Drumming 101 Podcast, I sit down with Joe Bergamini—drummer, educator, author, and one of the most thoughtful voices in the drum world.Joe has subbed on more than 15 Broadway shows, toured nationally, taught for decades, and written some of the most respected drum books out there. But what really stands out is how clearly he talks about what it actually takes to build a sustainable life as a working musician.We dig into what subbing on Broadway is really like, how learning music note-for-note early on prepared him for theater work, and how teaching, touring, rock bands, and saying yes to the right gigs quietly shaped his career. Joe also shares stories from his early club days and why preparation, curiosity, and relationships matter more than hype or shortcuts.This is an honest, practical conversation for drummers who care about longevity.Here are just a few books he has written:Speaking at NAMM – January 24I'll be expanding on many of these ideas in person at NAMM:Building a Career in Theater MusicSaturday, January 2411:30 AM – 12:00 PMHilton California AIf you're attending NAMM and curious about Broadway, touring, subbing, networking, contracts, and the real financial side of being a working musician, I hope you'll stop by.Broadway Bound and BeyondMy upcoming book, Broadway Bound and Beyond: A Musician's Guide to Building a Theater Career, goes deeper into many of the topics we talk about here—how musicians actually get hired, how careers are sustained, and what no one explains when you're starting out.Get on the list at:www.broadwayboundbook.comSubscribe and Stay ConnectedIf you're getting value from these conversations, make sure you're subscribed to Broadway Drumming 101 so you don't miss future episodes and articles.If you know a musician trying to figure out their next move, share this episode with them.

Il veut comprendre, dénoncer, faire entendre ce que l'Amérique se refuse à écouter. Pendant des mois, il reste chez lui, rongé par la tristesse, la culpabilité, la colère. La douceur de Tammi, la violence de son enfance, la sensation d'injustice : tout s'entremêle. Marvin ne veut plus embellir la vie. Il veut dire ce qui la détruit.Crimes • Histoires Vraies est une production Minuit. Notre collection s'agrandit avec Crimes en Bretagne, Montagne et Provence.

Il n'a pas encore cinq ans. Les fidèles de la House of God entrent en procession. Ici, pas de croix, pas de choeurs gospel policés. Les vêtements sont immaculés, les têtes couvertes, décorées d'une étoile de David bleu pâle. Saxophones, tambourins, orgue, guitare, piano : chacun joue comme s'il parlait directement à Dieu. On ne chante pas pour être beau. On chante pour être possédé. « Le seul devoir musical est de faire un bruit joyeux », expliquera plus tard l'apôtre Simon Peter Rawlings.Crimes • Histoires Vraies est une production Minuit.

This is a Broadway Drumming 101 Classic.Originally released in December 2021, this episode features Rich Rosenzweig, recorded on the very day Companyofficially opened on Broadway. The timing alone makes it special. Rich was stepping into an opening night shaped by grief, history, and pressure, following the passing of Stephen Sondheim, while carrying the responsibility of yet another major Broadway chair.But what makes this episode endure is not the moment. It is the honesty.Rich and Clayton dig into the parts of Broadway drumming that rarely get talked about clearly. Reviews. Word of mouth. Why some shows with mediocre press run for years while others with praise disappear. Rich explains how the power of critics has shifted, and why storytelling, audience response, and momentum now matter more than ever.From there, the conversation goes deep into subbing. This is one of the most detailed discussions anywhere about what chair holders actually look for in a sub drummer. Not flash. Not ego. Preparation, consistency, psychological trust, and the ability to make a conductor feel safe. Rich explains why subbing can be more stressful than holding a Broadway chair full time, and why even great drummers struggle if they miss these non-negotiables.They also talk candidly about career reality. Getting fired. Losing gigs. Being passed over. How to assess whether feedback is something to grow from or simply a mismatch. Rich shares stories from Beauty and the Beast, Cats, Rent, Memphis, and more, showing how longevity in this business often comes down to adaptability and self-awareness, not perfection.This episode is essential listening if you are serious about musical theater, Broadway, or touring at a high level.Not motivational quotes. Not shortcuts. Just real talk from someone who has lived it.If you are trying to understand how Broadway actually works, this one belongs in your library.Support Broadway Drumming 101 and unlock exclusive content at BroadwayDrumming101.com.Clayton Craddock is the drummer for the upcoming Broadway musical Cats: The Jellicle Ball, opening at the Broadhurst Theatre on April 7th.

Discograffiti is the deep-dive podcast for music obsessives. In this episode, we feature the next entry in The Chuck Granata Pet Sounds Interview Series: it's Part 2 of Chuck's chat with his close friend, legendary bassist Carol Kaye. This time around, they're joined by Chuck's bassist buddy, Ammo. Carol is one of the most prolific bass guitarists in rock and pop music, playing on an estimated 10,000 recordings during a career spanning over 65 years. She actually started doing session work in 1957 on guitar, and after a bassist failed to turn up to a session in 1963, she switched to that instrument, quickly making a name for herself as one of the most in-demand session players of the 1960s. She's appeared on sessions by Frank Sinatra, Simon & Garfunkel, Stevie Wonder, The Supremes, The Temptations, The Four Tops, and The Monkees. The intro on Glen Campbell's “Wichita Lineman”? She came up with that. Of course, that's also Carol plucking away on The Beach Boys albums Today!, Summer Days (And Summer Nights!!), Pet Sounds, and Smile. Most famously, Kaye's bass lines are the driving force behind “Good Vibrations”, one of her many number 1 hits.  Here's just a few of the many things that Carol discusses with Discograffiti in this podcast: Brian's psychological difficulties; A nerd's fantasy: a rundown of her equipment; The corruption she experienced firsthand while working for Motown; The music she liked and didn't like playing; The particularities of the legendary studios in which she recorded; And just setting the record straight in general, about absolutely everything.

Let's AgeGayfully® together, with intention, humor, and each other. Aging Gayfully hits the jukebox! Josh and Chris time-travel through the soundtrack of their lives—from 60s Motown and The Big Chill memories, to 70s Elton John and eight-tracks, to MTV-fueled 80s anthems like “Take On Me,” and finally a 90s detour to the Three Tenors that sparked a love of classical music. Along the way: why everyone needs “their pub,” the $20 bartender tip rule, TV shows that made us music fans, and how orchestral soundtracks and symphonies still soothe the brain as we age. It's nostalgia, community, and the science-backed wellness of music—served with bartender-level hospitality. Keywords: LGBTQ+ aging, music and memory, Motown, Elton John, MTV, 80s pop, classical music, wellbeing, community, travel & leisure. A gay senior, Christopher MacLellan, and an ally, Josh Wilson, podcasting about life, love, liberty and travel. Don't Say Gay?… Say AgingGayfully®! AgingGayfully® is about living life with dignity in an age-friendly society regardless of orientation or economic status because longevity is a justice issue. AgingGayfully® is about finding your voice as we age. We are all part of the aging process and have real connections in diversity. AgingGayfully® is a modern type of activism that supports the concept of belonging. AgingGayfully® is about Adventure, Leisure, Travel, being a citizen of the world, traveling to destinations, and being part of the global community as we age and prosper in body, mind, and spirit.

After the Pointer Sisters nail “Santa Claus is Comin' to Town,” Santa Redd Foxx and elf Marsha Warfield provide some comedy. Following that, Ronnie Spector and Darlene Love sing a Christmas medley with awkward transitions between each song. They kill it so hard, though! Great stuff!Desiree Coleman, Smokey Robinson, and Natalie Cole wow the audience with soulful carols.
