Music runs deep with Bonnie Hayes. Growing up, her home was filled with music, and two of her brothers also traveled down a musical path: Her brother Chris was lead guitarist for Huey Lewis & The News, and brother Kevin was the drummer for the Robert Cray Band. As a young musician, Bonnie's focus was jazz, and one of her first jobs was teaching music at the Blue Bear School of Music in the Bay area. From there, she sidetracked into punk and new wave and started The Punts in San Francisco, which later became Bonnie Hayes with the Wild Combo. If you've seen the 1983 movie "Valley Girl", you'll hear the song "Girls Like Me" at the start of the film, along with "Shelley's Boyfriend." However, songwriting and education became Bonnie's focus, both for herself and for other musicians. Many of her songs were picked-up and recorded by a variety of artists, including Bonnie Raitt, Cher, David Crosby, Natalie Cole, Adam Ant, Huey Lewis, Bette Midler and many others. In 2013, Hayes became chair of the songwriting department at Berklee in Boston. In 2022, she returned to the Bay Area to found a youth All Star Songwriting Program at Blue Bear School of Music. To talk more about her extensive career in the music business, Inside MusiCast is pleased to welcome Bonnie Hayes.

Hollywood is buzzing about Wendy Braun, and after sitting down with her, we completely understand why! In this episode of UNDRESSED: THE INTERVIEW, we get to know the incredibly talented actress behind the Emmy-worthy buzz surrounding Jury Duty Company Retreat and revisit the remarkable career that has made her one of television's most recognizable faces. From starring in Atypical, General Hospital, Grey's Anatomy, This Is Us, Bones, Castle, Criminal Minds, and more than 80 IMDb credits, Wendy opens up about the long road to success, including the heartbreaking rejection that saw ten of Hollywood's top commercial agents turn her away before she went on to book 19 national commercials in a single year. She also shares the surreal moment of working alongside her childhood crush, David Cassidy, dancing in The Big Lebowski, performing with Earth, Wind & Fire and Natalie Cole, and why every rejection ultimately prepared her for the opportunities she's enjoying today. We also dive deep into one of television's most talked-about new comedies, Jury Duty Company Retreat, where Wendy reveals the unbelievable behind-the-scenes secrets that have everyone talking. From performing dangerous stunt work in a single take to acting alongside someone who had no idea they were starring in a television series, she explains how the production combines scripted comedy with hidden cameras in one of the most ambitious concepts we've ever heard. It's unlike anything currently on television and her stories had us completely fascinated. Of course, we couldn't resist sharing plenty of laughs along the way. From remodeling our new studio and almost spray-painting ourselves into oblivion, to hair transplant confessions, Captain Fun hats, fashion talk, and our ongoing acting rivalry, the conversation goes everywhere in the best possible way. Wendy also gives us a masterclass on mindset, explaining why chasing authenticity instead of perfection has been the secret to her longevity in Hollywood. One of our favorite moments comes when Wendy talks about choosing motherhood over career opportunities that would have taken her away from her family. Her heartfelt perspective on raising two remarkable sons reminds us that while awards and success are wonderful, family is the legacy that matters most. It's an emotional conversation filled with honesty, inspiration, and genuine gratitude. Join us as we laugh, reminisce, celebrate Wendy's incredible career, and discover why everyone from Mike Ruiz to Emmy voters is talking about her. And don't miss what's coming next, because Wendy joins us tomorrow for UNDRESSED: THE HOT SEAT, where we tackle today's hottest headlines, fashion, and plenty of surprises!

Cornell CC Carter is an extraordinary, respected contemporary soul and R&B vocalist, songwriter, and session singer known for his smooth, soulful voice and deep roots in the San Francisco Bay Area music scene. Visit www.cornellcccarter.com Born in Berkeley and raised in San Francisco, Carter developed his musical style through years of performing in cover bands, studio sessions, and collaborations with some of the biggest names in soul and funk music.Carter earned a reputation as a premier session vocalist, working with legendary artists including James Brown, Ray Charles, Carlos Santana, Natalie Cole, Kool & the Gang, The Temptations, and producer Narada Michael Walden. His wide vocal range—from baritone to tenor—made him especially valuable in studio production and vocal arranging. Although highly respected behind the scenes for many years, Carter gained broader international recognition through his solo albums, particularly In the Moment (2016), which resonated strongly with modern soul audiences in the UK and Europe.He followed that success with Vindicated Soul (2017), a collection of soulful reinterpretations of classics by artists like Al Green and Marvin Gaye. Carter's music blends classic soul influences with contemporary production, often drawing comparisons to traditional soul stylists while maintaining a modern groove. His later projects, including One Love and singles like “Change” and “It's Over,” showcased increasingly mature songwriting focused on relationships, emotional honesty, and social themes.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/success-made-to-last-legends--4302039/support.

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're celebrating our 10th anniversary all year by digging in the vaults to re-present classic episodes with fresh commentary. Today, we're revisiting our 2021 conversation with Richard Marx. ABOUT RICHARD MARX:Grammy-winning performer Richard Marx has sold more than 30 million albums as an artist, but if you only know him from late 1980s ballads such as “Hold on to the Nights” and “Right Here Waiting,” you only know part of the story. A prolific songwriter, Marx has landed fourteen songs at the top of various Billboard charts, and has written a #1 single in each of the last four decades. His genre-crossing songwriting success includes “What About Me” and “Crazy,” which Kenny Rogers carried to the top of the Adult Contemporary and Country charts, respectively; “Edge of a Broken Heart,” a hit for the female metal band Vixen; “This I Promise You,” a Top 5 pop single for NSYNC that stayed at #1 on the Adult Contemporary Chart for 13 weeks; Josh Groban's debut single “To Where You Are,” which also reached #1; and “Dance With My Father,” which Richard wrote with the song's performer, Luther Vandross, and which earned the pair the prestigious Grammy Song of the Year award in 2004. Additionally, Richard has scored three major hits with Keith Urban: the Top 5 “Everybody,” and the #1 singles “Better Life” and “Long Hot Summer.”  Despite all his songwriting success, however, Marx is best known as a singer and performer who today jokes about his 80s hairstyle and of-the-era drum sounds. But the songs are undeniable, all of which Marx wrote and produced himself. His debut self-titled album yielded four Top 5 singles: “Don't Mean Nothing,” “Should've Known Better,” “Endless Summer Nights,” and “Hold on to the Nights.” His follow-up, 1989's Repeat Offender, was even more successful, going quadruple-platinum and earning two number one Billboard pop singles, “Satisfied” and “Right Here Waiting,” in addition to the Top 5 “Angelina.” More hits followed, including “Keep Coming Back,” “Hazard,” “Take This Heart,” “Now and Forever,” and “Until I Find You Again.” In addition, Richard's songs have been integral to a number of successful film soundtracks. He earned a Grammy nomination for his contributions to St. Elmo's Fire; scored a Top 10 pop hit with “Surrender to Me,” which Ann Wilson of Heart and Robin Zander of Cheap Trick recorded for the movie Tequila Sunrise, and wrote “At the Beginning,” a hit duet for the film Anastasia that Richard performed with Donna Lewis. Over the course of his career, Richard's songs have been recorded by Barbra Streisand, The Tubes, Sarah Brightman, Monica, Natalie Cole, Michael Bolton, Paulina Rubio, Emerson Drive, Chicago, Billy Ray Cyrus, Vince Gill, Kenny Loggins, LeAnn Rimes, Celine Dion, Julio Iglesias, Berry Manilow, Daughtry, Vertical Horizon, Lifehouse, Dave Koz, Jennifer Nettles, Ringo Starr, and many others. His memoir, Stories to Tell, is available from Simon & Shuster.   Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

This is much deeper than it may seem as the answer need not be strictly about funky music, as not everyone has found the funk. It could hit on whatever type of music touches their soul or pleasure centers. Additionally, the question extends beyond music. Paraphrasing George Clinton, funk is whatever it needs to be to get you over the hump. Thus, guests can explain where they got their grit, perseverance, inspiration, talent, creativity, character or other qualities that shaped them into who they are today. This serves as a springboard into candid, in-depth and engrossing conversations. LEGAL NOTICE: All video and audio content protected by copyright.

Let's Chat!A single pill promises rest—and opens a door. We follow Aston Keller, a high-performing attorney whose sleepless nights turn his glass-and-marble life into a mirror maze where reflections stop mirroring and start studying. A voicemail bleeds into Natalie Cole, a boardroom melts into versions of his own face, and a wall of Polaroids tightens its red thread into a body that learns to breathe with his lungs. The question isn't whether he'll sleep—it's who will wake up in his place.I share why predators never rush the kill and how exhaustion is their favorite accomplice. We unpack the subtle ways stress collapses timing, how sedation blurs the line between rest and surrender, and why institutions often reward replaceable reflections over real authorship. Claire's absence becomes both grief and glitch, and the city turns into a chorus of “Not you anymore,” forcing a reckoning with identity, memory, and consent. This is a tense, cinematic chapter packed with practical takeaways: guardrails for decisions, rituals that return your breath, and five reflection questions that cut through numbness without shame.If you've ever medicated your defenses, if your work reads wrong in your own handwriting, or if your reflection feels like it learned you too well, this story will hit home. Listen, then sit with the prompts. Share it with someone who knows your real face. And if it helps, subscribe, leave a quick review, and pass it along—your support keeps this journey honest and alive."True mastery is found in the details. The way you handle the little things defines the way you handle everything."
