Stewart Copeland is so much more than the drummer from The Police. Over the decades he's been in numerous bands, scored films and tv series, written operas, performed with orchestras and engaged folks on his speaking tours. He's lived around the world and toured it as well, while being part of some of the most memorable songs and videos in the early MTV era. As The Wolf and Action Jackson are (grown?) children of the MTV generation, we fulfilled our lifelong dream of speaking with the gregarious American member of our first favorite rock band. Stewart's articulate and energetic personality shines as he talks about his opportunity to play the opening ceremonies of the Paralympic Games in Italy. He regales with stories of when Andy entered the picture and made his life easier while Summers presence meant Sting finally had someone to give his songs the proper harmonies he'd been looking for. Though we loved those Godley & Creme videos from Synchronicity, he said all three of them were completely miserable during the whole experience. But he also talks about finding his love for making music again by working with Francis Ford Coppola while creating movie scores. The long prep with orchestras to perform Police - Deranged for Orchestra shows that he still has a great work ethic (and we look forward to reviewing that performance soon) and he loves the laughs he gets from his Have I Said Too Much speaking tours. His unbridled passion and enthusiasm are evident throughout the interview which two lifelong fans hope you enjoy as much as we did.

Happy Regular Guy Friday, Heal Squad! This week starts with Musical Youth nostalgia and how MTV once had the power to turn a random music video into a global hit… something that might feel familiar in the TikTok era. Kev shares a classic Kev-on-the-Scene story from his MTV days: navigating a difficult head writer, getting shut down in the writers' room, and the moment he stopped playing by someone else's rules… leading to an opportunity writing short films for Jenny McCarthy and eventually running the show. We talk resilience, Hollywood politics, and why sometimes the path forward isn't winning inside the system… it's stepping outside it. PLUS, letting go of old grudges, focusing your energy on what's next, and the simple rule: GMP — Get More Powerful. Bye Betches!

I dag, den 6. marts 2026, udkommer albummet Help(2), et engelsk støttealbum hvor alt overskuddet går til velgørenhedsorganisationen War Child, som har til hensigt at hjælpe krigsramte børn med at få adgang til mad, uddannelse og psykologisk hjælp. Det album er en regulær fortsættelse til et af de mest legendariske velgørenhedsalbum nogensinde. For det var tilbage i september 1995 cremen af den britiske musikbranche gik sammen om at hjælpe krigsramte børn i Bosnien-Herzegovina på albummet Help, og i denne uges udsendelse hylder vi denne fantastiske udgivelse. Alle 20 sange på albummet blev indspillet mandag den 4. september 1995, og allerede lørdag den 9. september var det til salg i pladebutikkerne – første gang i musikhistorien nogen havde forsøgt at indspille og udgive et helt album på bare 1 uge. Vi kommer til at gå igennem hele albummet, og det betyder at vi kommer til at lytte til fantastisk musik fra bl.a. Radiohead, Blur, Oasis, Portishead, Neneh Cherry, Massive Attack, The KLF, Sinéad O'Connor, Suede, The Stone Roses og Manic Street Preachers. Derudover skal I også møde en blind serbisk radiovært, en influenzaramt pladeselskabsmand med en god idé, en meget alvorlig Keith Allen, en togrejsende Paul McCartney, en regnvåd James Dean Bradfield, en syngende MTV-vært, en prisuddelende Roger Taylor, en vred Roger Waters og så kommer vi da også lige forbi salmebøger fra midthalvfemserne, cykelbude med politieskorte og transportflyvere fra Malaga.

The music video didn't just shape pop culture…it defined it. From the glam‑soaked excess of the '80s and '90s to the gritty authenticity of the alt‑rock era, and finally to the algorithm‑driven, globally connected internet age, the music video has lived many lives. In part two of this deep dive, we trace the rise, collapse, and surprising rebirth of the music video that once ruled MTV and MuchMusic. We look at the groundbreaking work of directors like Spike Jonze, the multimillion‑dollar spectacles of superstars like Madonna and Michael Jackson, and the moment YouTube and smartphones permanently rewired how we watch, and make, music videos. From Pearl Jam's refusal to play the game, to viral sensations like OK Go, to the billion‑view world of K‑pop and global micro‑scenes, we discover that the music video isn't dead. It escaped television. And it's thriving. This is Part 2 of the Rise and Fall and Future of the Music Video. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Interview with Steve Wynn of the Dream Syndicate. Steve Wynn is a singer, musician and songwriter. He led the band the Dream Syndicate from 1981 to 1989 in Los Angeles, afterward began a solo career, and then reformed the Dream Syndicate in 2001 Steve's info : (links to Medicine Show release ) https://www.stevewynn.net/dream_syndicate_medicine_show.php. Steve's Bio: Steve Wynn was born in Santa Monica, California in 1960 and got his first guitar (a nylon-string acoustic) when he was nine, shortly after which he wrote his first song "Sing My Blues". He formed his first band "The Light Bulbs" that same year and the band made the circuit of parties and school functions; the band's oldest member was ten years old. By the time he was 13, Wynn had played in bands with such colorful names as Purple Passion and Sudden Death Overtime, alternating between his own early originals and songs by Neil Young, The Rolling Stones and The Who. In the years that followed, Wynn found himself sidetracked by a strong desire to become a sportswriter. Abandoning his electric guitar for a notepad, pen and typewriter Wynn found himself on the other side of the interview, speaking to football, basketball and baseball players and dreaming of one day seeing his name on the masthead of Sports Illustrated. During his high school years, Wynn entertained notions of becoming a sportswriter but the excitement and immediacy of the punk rock explosion of 1977 brought him back into the world of songwriting and performing. He found himself writing and playing guitar for UC Davis (near Sacramento) New Wave pioneers "Suspects", a band for whom Wynn wrote over 100 songs, none of which he has performed since. A move back to Los Angeles with Suspects lead singer Kendra Smith was the first step towards the formation of The Dream Syndicate, the band with whom Wynn would gain national and eventually international acclaim. The Dream Syndicate played together for the first time in December 1981 and within three weeks had recorded its self-titled first EP. The record was released in April 1982 and followed six months later by the band's debut album "The Days of Wine and Roses", an album which fans and critics alike still consider one of the best and most important rock albums of all time. Those early years are represented here by "When You Smile" and "That's What You Always Say," songs which have been covered, respectively, by Concrete Blonde and Luna. The band was almost immediately signed by A&M Records for whom it recorded the landmark "Medicine Show" (the title song opens this compilation), a record that was recently named one of the 40 best rock albums of all time by the London Guardian and whose songs have been covered by REM and The Black Crowes among many others. Several years of worldwide touring (including several trips to Europe and Japan and Australia) followed before the band broke up at the end of 1988. Wynn has said "As proud as I was of The Dream Syndicate, our music and our accomplishments I felt we had reached our peak and everything that followed would have been a disappointment. I wanted to be a band that broke up while we were still doing our best work." In 1990 Wynn came back with his first solo offering "Kerosene Man," an album of incredible diversity that showed Wynn's enormous growth as a songwriter and record-maker. The songs "Carolyn" and "Tears Won't Help" were among the most-played songs that year on Modern Rock radio stations and his video for "Carolyn" was in regular rotation on MTV for six weeks. The follow-up "Dazzling Display" was Wynn's most elaborate production to date, a dizzying synthesis of the best rock music of the previous 30 years featuring the talents of, among others, REM's Peter Buck, Concrete Blonde's Johnette Napolitano and members of The Bangles, The Turtles and the touring bands of Lou Reed and Tracy Chapman. A four-day writing vacation in Richmond, Virginia with the House of Freaks' Bryan Harvey turned into the side-project supergroup Gutterball who released two albums, garnered overwhelming press response and built a frenetic cult following; the Black Crowes took the band out as its opening act even before the first Gutterball record was released. Not one to stand still, Wynn followed the success of Gutterball with the more introspective "Fluorescent", an album whose single "Carelessly" picked up heavy radio play throughout the US and Europe. In 1994, Wynn moved to New York City. He harnessed the excitement and energy of his new home in his record "Melting in the Dark". The two albums that followed,"Sweetness and Light" and "My Midnight", found Wynn settling into the sound that would define the next phase of his solo career. In 2001, Steve went to Tucson and recorded the double album "Here Come the Miracles" which was released to overwhelming critical acclaim. The album was seen as a stunning comeback and appeared on many year-end critics' surveys along with winning Best Alternative Rock Album by the American Federation of Independent Music. The album was followed by "Static Transmission" and "...tick...tick...tick", both also recorded in Tucson with his new backing unit "The Miracle 3" and which were viewed as part of a "Desert Trilogy" that is seen by many as the best work of his career. But Wynn has never been one to settle into an easy or predictable groove. Since the last of the desert trilogy he has recorded "Cast Iron Soul", a new Danny & Dusty album with Green On Red's Dan Stuart, joined forces with his wife and drummer Linda Pitmon and legendary Spanish producer Paco Loco to concoct the twisted pop side project "Smack Dab", and collaborated with the Walkabouts' Chris Eckman in Slovenia on the lush and lavish "Crossing Dragon Bridge", a record that made up a tandem of new releases in 2008 with "The Baseball Project", a baseball song cycle collaboration with Pitmon and also Scott McCaughey and Peter Buck of REM and the Minus 5. In the midst of such a prolific recording career, Wynn has still found time to average over 100 shows a year all over the world. He has found himself as welcome in Rome, Oslo, Athens, Brussels, London and Madrid as he has in Los Angeles, New York City, San Francisco, Chicago and Boston. And for the devoted fans he has made in these and many other cities, his extensive discography of music reflects the consensus among fans: that Steve Wynn is one of the most adventurous, accomplished and exciting songwriters of the last few decades. If all of this is still news to you, just put on this cd and get ready to join the legions of people who have enjoyed Wynn's dazzling display of songs over the last 25 years.

The story of Sonia Mansfield has roots in The Bay. In this episode, we meet and get to know my friend Sonia. She and I worked together at the Fangs' Examiner back in the mid-2000s, and have been friends since. I loved her presence in the newsroom. I'd often listen to her make us all laugh from her A&E desk across the room. We've been through weddings, births, illness, divorces, and many, many beers together. These days, she hosts the What a Creep podcast, and I'm so glad you get to meet her now. We begin Part 1 with the story of Sonia's parents. Her dad is from Richmond, California, and her mom is from Concord. Her dad eventually moved to Concord, where he went to Mt. Diablo High and dated a girl who turned out to be Sonia's mom's best friend. After her dad got his heart broken by that friend, Sonia's mom jumped right in. They were high school sweethearts who got married right after graduation, and have been together ever since. The young couple had their first kid—Sonia—a couple years later, when they were 21. Another girl came around about three years later, followed by a boy five years after that. Sonia was born and grew up in Concord. She recalls the East Bay town before BART, with plenty of wide-open fields and other undeveloped spaces. She rollerskated a lot (hey, it was the Seventies, after all) at local roller rinks. The Concord Pavilion (now known as Toyota Pavilion at Concord—barf) was where big touring acts played, and Sonia went to her share of concerts there. Her childhood and early adulthood were, in her words, "so Gen X." She and her siblings and their neighborhood friends ran wild, like feral animals. Anyone from this generation, including me, can relate. Looking back as an adult with a kid now, Sonia figures her parents just wanted them out of the house. What's the worst that could happen? The only "surveillance" would be: If the family dog, a Dachshund named Oscar, was sitting outside a nearby house, you could bet that Sonia was inside. He got there by chasing his favorite person while she rode her bike. No leash. Why would you? It was so laissez-faire, in fact, that Sonia says she would walk into strangers' houses. "You're watching cartoons. I like cartoons." Cool. Her sister was always part of her crew, her and other kids from the neighborhood. They also had hella cousins. Sonia's mom is one of eight kids in her family. We go on a little sidebar about all the crazy, dangerous shit we all did as kids. In Texas, there was a certain kind of injury, where some part of your body scraped across cement or asphalt. We called it "getting skinned," and it hurt like hell. But it was just part of the game. The conversation turns to Sonia's earliest days loving TV and movies. She's loved them as long as she remembers, thanks to her dad. He used to love going to theaters to watch movies. Now, he prefers seeing them from the comfort of his own home, but it speaks to his love of the medium. And Sonia says she got that from her old man. Her mom also loves movies, and kept going to theaters longer than her husband. She took her eldest daughter with her almost always. The movies they saw were never age-appropriate, but she got in because she was with her mom. Young Sonia also loved TV Guide, and would read the magazine from front-to-back, word-for-word. She says that before the internet, before Google, her dad would call Sonia and ask her about movies. The TV was always on, something else I relate to (my parents, both in their mid-eighties, still do this). Sonia was an early MTV adopter. Probably because her parents were younger than most, they liked cool music and Sonia heard a lot of it. That whole "walk into neighbors' houses, everyone's my friend" ran head-first into seventh grade, when Sonia learned the hard way that it just can't be true. One day, on the bus she rode every day, one kid started teasing her and then got other kids on the bus to join in. And it happened again the next day. And the next. The torture lasted for months. And it wasn't just the bus—the dude kept up the torment in the classroom. She says that the bullying changed her chemically. She went from open and outgoing to shy and afraid. She started spending more and more time in the school library during lunch. She didn't share her shame with anyone—not friends, not her parents. She internalized it. Part of turning inward for Sonia meant watching more and more TV. She'd go see movies alone. But it's not like she had zero friends. Sonia found her weirdos, the nerds and theater kids, and kept her circle small. She got even more into writing during this time in her life. In middle school, she'd write "really shitty short stories." She asked her parents for and they bought her an electric typewriter. In high school, she took a creative writing class and joined the school paper staff, for whom she wrote movie reviews (duh). Siskel and Ebert were huge influences, and she regularly read the Contra Costa Times' A&E section. When her family would go off on camping/hunting trips and leave Sonia behind because she wasn't into that kinda thing, she'd take the $20 they left her and go rent movies at her local indie video store. She'd browse the aisles and read the backs of every tape. She credits this with why she has so much useless knowledge around movies in her brain all these years later. After she graduated from high school, Sonia got a job at the local movie theater. And at that job, she started making friends with other movie nerds. Because her coworkers were new in her life and not privy to the BS she put up with in middle and high school, she could start fresh with them. And she was getting attention … from boys. Some of the folks she met at that theater job and another that followed have remained lifelong friends, in fact. Sonia was really finding herself as a young adult. We wrap up Part 1 with her decision to stay close to home and go to community college, vs. moving away and going to a four-year school. Check back tomorrow for Part 2.

We're back to take stock of one of the biggest bands to explode out of the 1980's as we decide The Best and Worst of Bon Jovi! In this episode, we kick off Part 1 covering every studio album from the self-titled 1984 debut through 2002's Bounce. The goal was simple: each of us picked one favorite and one least favorite track from every album — no live albums, no compilations — and let the arguments fall where they may. We start with Bon Jovi and 7800° Fahrenheit. These 2 first albums straddled the line between AOR vibes, solid riffs, keyboard overkill, and rushed timelines for recording. The discussion revolves around early identity, flashes of future greatness, and whether these records are overlooked gems or simply necessary growing pains. Then it's into the arena-stratosphere era with Slippery When Wet and New Jersey, where a string of hits vaulted the band into stadiums and MTV dominance. We examine whether the massive singles define the albums or overshadow deeper cuts. The early '90s shift begins with Keep the Faith, marking a reinvention in the grunge era, and continues with the darker, more introspective These Days. These records sparked some of the most interesting debate: growth vs accessibility, musicianship vs hooks, and whether deeper cuts like “Dry County” outshine the radio staples. We wrap Part 1 with the comeback of Crush and the post-9/11 tone of Bounce. We hope you enjoy The Best and Worst of Bon Jovi Part 1 and SHARE with a friend!

A song-of-the-summer redefines a band through a period of musical maturation, and puts a spotlight on the downfall of MTV. And a cover reveals hidden depths. Still Into You, originally by Paramore, covered by Lewis Capaldi. Outro music is the theme song from Dr. Who, because there's a Capaldi in this episode, and it may be our only chance to pull that tune out.
We present to you a Music Stars themed week which allows for more deep cuts on some cult favorite movies: Join me for a minisode on the BELLY films starring DMX, Nas, The Game & Michael K. Williams (A.K.A. Omar from HBO's The Wire). Where does the first film rank in terms of some of the many other CARLITO'S WAY/GOODFELLAS inspired films? Why did they do this in-name-only sequel and did it entertain or fail completely? Why didn't Hype Williams have a bigger cinematic career outside of MTV music videos? And how is the soundtrack utilized for the narratives in these films? Armor up, speed away to your crib & join the Ruff Ryders for this engaging deep cut! FREE TO USE MUSIC BY SOUNDSCRATE.
Ben Vaughn in conversation with David Eastaugh https://benvaughn.org/ https://www.straightfromthehat.com/ https://lnkfi.re/SFTH Ben Vaughn grew up in the Philadelphia area on the New Jersey side of the river. At age 6, his uncle gave him a Duane Eddy record and forever changed his life. In 1983, he formed the Ben Vaughn Combo. The band was together five years, releasing two albums and touring the U.S. several times. They received rave reviews in Rolling Stone and People magazine and video airplay on MTV. The attention inspired Marshall Crenshaw to record Ben's "I'm Sorry (But So Is Brenda Lee)" for his "Downtown" album. Ben embarked on a solo career in 1988, recording several critically acclaimed albums, touring extensively in Europe and the U.S. and receiving more MTV exposure. During that period he produced three records for the Elektra Records American Explorer series (Memphis rockabilly legend Charlie Feathers, Muscle Shoals country soul singer Arthur Alexander) and recorded "Cubist Blues," a collaboration with Alan Vega and Alex Chilton. He also scored two films ("Favorite Mopar" and "Wild Girl's Go-Go Rama"), as well as appearing as a frequent guest commentator on nationally syndicated radio shows “Fresh Air” and "World Cafe."
In this episode, we welcome Michael, author of "The Mighty Van Halen: One Fan's Journey," for a nostalgic journey through the cassette rock era of the 1980s.We start by tackling some technical challenges with audio and Discord setup before diving into Michael's book, which chronicles his coming-of-age as a Van Halen fan during the golden age of rock. Michael shares how readers from different regions have found his story deeply relatable, highlighting the unique experiences of a generation that built stereos, traded tapes, and lived for new album releases.The conversation flows naturally into memories of first hearing Van Halen—from Michael's 1970s introduction to the band, to watching MTV's early days, to the cultural phenomenon of the 1984 album. We discuss David Lee Roth's eclectic SiriusXM radio show and share stories about the transition from vinyl and cassette culture to the digital age.We explore concert experiences and the modern music scene, touching on Wolfgang Van Halen's upcoming shows, potential collaborations with Billie Eilish, and news about Slash filming in Winnipeg. The conversation takes a fun turn as we share our most anticipated album purchases—from Van Halen's 1984 to KISS's Dynasty—and reminisce about our first music purchases, early disco influences, and those treasured Christmas albums from the late '70s.It's a celebration of the era when music was a tactile experience and every new album release was an event.https://www.amazon.com/Mighty-Van-Halen-Fans-Journey/dp/B0G1KYGKGG Linktree: https://linktr.ee/seangeekpodcastPatreon: https://www.patreon.com/c/meetthegeeksWe are a part of the Boneless Podcast Network: https://boneless-catalogue-player.lovable.app/Merch:Tee Public: https://www.teepublic.com/seangeekpodcastRed Bubble: https://www.redbubble.com/people/seangeekpodcast/shop@seangeekpodcast on Twitter, Instagram and FacebookMentioned in this episode:New Merch AdAn ad that incorporates Red Bubble and Tee Public

Send us feedback/questions via TextHey there, Dave Jackson here! In this episode, Jim Collison and I dove deep into some hot topics in podcasting and audio media. We kicked things off with a look at the latest Edison Research findings showing that, for the first time, more time is spent listening to podcasts than to AM/FM radio for spoken word audio. We reminisced about the evolution of radio, the challenges of finding a working radio today, the shift of talk and sports content to podcasts, and how technology keeps changing the game.We also had fun nostalgia moments: remembering AM static, Headbanger's Ball, MTV catchphrases, and what really happened to music videos.Advertising in podcasting got a thorough critique—how much is too much, what makes ads skip-worthy or valuable, and what lessons we can take from radio and even the Super Bowl.Another lively discussion came up around video podcasting. We debated YouTube versus distributing video everywhere, addressed anti-YouTube sentiments, and reminded listeners that audio is still king for a lot of people.I also shared some behind-the-scenes tech workflows, like how I use Tella, Hindenburg, and Podchapters, how to move sites to Podpage, and why no tool does it all (yet).Big philosophical questions popped up too: What would actually "kill" podcasting? Is it too many bad ads, a decline in content quality, or moving away from RSS? Or, is podcasting simply evolving, and are our definitions (or nostalgia) holding us back?Randy Black called in with a great riff on what "remarkable content" really means—it can be good or bad. We wrapped up by agreeing that, at the end of the day, success in podcasting comes from making meaningful shows for your audience and being authentic.Sponsors:PodcastBranding.co - They see you before they hear youBasedonastruestorypodcast.com - Comparing Hollywood with History?Video Version (unedited)Mentioned In This EpisodeSchool of Podcastinghttps://www.schoolofpodcasting.com/joinPodpagehttp://www.trypodpage.comHome Gadget GeeksFeatured Supporter: Shane from SpybraryWe interview spy authors, espionage historians and fans of spy books, spy movies and spy TV series!

We explore the evolution of music videos, the decline of a popular MTV show, and security problems at Pinnacle Bank Arena.
Send in your music story!A skipped lyric on live TV, a stunned crowd, and a pop empire built on a voice the stars didn't sing—few stories grip music fans like Millie Vanilli's. We pull back the curtain on how two magnetic performers became the faces of chart-topping hits, why a producer gambled on deception, and what really happens behind the scenes when image outruns honesty. From MTV dominance to a revoked Grammy, we revisit the flashpoint and the fallout—and the real vocalists who were left in the dark.We also zoom out to the modern playbook: manufactured groups, collaborative writing rooms, studio perfection, and the rise of live tech. Backing tracks, in-ear monitors, click guides, and tasteful autotune can elevate a show when used to translate the record to the stage. Where's the line between enhancement and fraud? Intention and transparency. If a singer sings and credits are clear, technology is craft. If a face fronts someone else's voice, that's a breach of trust and a theft of credit.Along the way, we talk ethics, pressure, and the human cost. Rob Pilatus's tragic decline and Fab Morvan's return to the craft reveal how fame without foundation collapses under scrutiny. We examine producer Frank Farian's central role and ask how today's tools—AI voice cloning, real-time tuning, algorithm-driven discovery—reshape the same old incentives. The beauty bias still lingers, but access has changed the game: independent artists can build loyal audiences with honesty, skill, and smart use of technology.If you care about live performance, studio polish, songwriting credits, and what authenticity should mean in 2026, this conversation is for you.

Subscribe to Greg Fitzsimmons: https://bit.ly/subGregFitz Greg sits down with Ali Siddiq for a sharp, wide-ranging conversation that blends comedy craft, fatherhood, prison politics, and mental health. Ali opens up about performing through a broken toe, battling panic attacks on the road, raising nine kids with wildly different personalities, and why he continues to independently release massively successful specials after repeated industry rejection. It's funny, raw, opinionated, and full of the kind of honest storytelling that makes Ali one of the most compelling voices in stand-up today. Sponsors RULA Visit Rula.com/fitzdog to get started.

For decades, music videos weren't just promotional add‑ons…they were the beating heart of global pop culture. The music video affected the art of movie-making...it affected the way we look at tv, not to mention fashion, language, politics, gender fluidity, LGBTQ issues, and so much more…videos may have altered our attention spans–which kind of concerns me because this program is an hour long and I need you to hang in there with me... Music videos exported soft power from the West, especially the United States, to the rest of the world. At one point, MTV was one of the most influential creators and disseminators of culture….and by “culture” I mean America. That was then…music videos are still an art form and still necessary (well, mostly necessary) for promoting music…but things just aren't what they used to be… How did we get to this point?...this is the rise and fall and future of the music video…part 1 Learn more about your ad choices.

In 1985, MTV was in the thick of the rock revolution. You couldn't turn on the channel without seeing guys with big hair and loud guitars playing to sexy, scantily clad women, and Y&T's “Summertime Girls” was no exception. This long-running Bay Area band was well respected in the world of hard rock and had amassed legions of fans around the globe, yet they remained somewhat under the radar in the American mainstream. Although the band wrote “Summertime Girls” as a joke, their record label insisted they record it, a decision that initially seemed like a stroke of genius when the song became their most well-known hit in the States. It wasn't long, however, before a backlash set in, and the fiercely determined band was forced back to square one. This week, we're joined by Horror Movie Night's Scott Roger to dive into the life and times of Y&T, a prolific band that may have made one huge, albeit catchy, mistake.
