Podcast appearances and mentions of Ray Charles

Send us a textThe Minnesota Twins take one of three from the Kansas City Royals at Kauffman Stadium. The boys focus on the positives as Pablo Lopez returns from the IL, and Bailey Ober has a decent outing. Dan believes that Rocco has regained control of the team and has their respect, and David thinks that it's due to the removal of Carlos Correa from the clubhouse. The guys discuss the Phillies' Harrison Bader's controversial home run ball situation, and make their picks for the upcoming Angels series.

Send us a textThis was certainly a low for the season and possibly for a span much longer than that, as the Minnesota Twins are swept by the Chicago White Sox in a four-game series in Minnesota for the first time ever. David and Dan identify a few nice performances but mostly see the bad bullpen and mediocre starting pitching, which cost the Twins against what is supposedly the worst team in the American League. David wonders what Rocco Baldelli thinks of the September call-ups, and Dan asks whether there need to be coaching changes in the offseason.

** PLEASE SUBSCRIBE ** Featured in WYGYFF Episode 28:  Jazz saxophonist, songwriter, label owner, music & film producer, and educator James “Plunky” Branch. Since the early 1970s, he has led his band, originally known as Juju and today as Oneness, through some 30 albums and hundreds of performances throughout the world. He has been on bills with stars like Patti LaBelle, Ray Charles, Earth, Wind and Fire, and Frankie Beverly and Maze, served as a studio musician for The Cosby Show, and has appeared on several avant-garde jazz albums. His latest 2025 album is titled, Made Through Ritual.  Special thanks to Paris Ford for facilitating this interview. RECORDED MAY 2025 Hosted by Scott "DR GX" Goldfine — musicologist, author of “Everything Is on the One: The First Guide of Funk” and creator/host of the popular TRUTH IN RHYTHM podcast — "Where'd You Get Your Funk From?" is the latest interview show brought to you by FUNKNSTUFF.NET. Where'd You Get Your Funk From (WYGYFF) is an open format video and audio podcast focusing on the here and now, with a broad range of creative and artistic guests sharing fascinating stories, experiences, and perspectives. WYGYFF is a welcoming avenue to newer and independent musical acts as well as established and still active musicians of any genre; authors; filmmakers; actors; artists; collectors and archivists; radio & podcast personalities; journalists; scholars; sound techs; promoters; photographers; and other creative people. A common thread, is the show's standard opening question: Where'd you get your funk from? 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.

In this episode we discuss our Top 5 Ray Charles songs with the mother of the podcast Sylvia Gentry  https://music.apple.com/us/playlist/ray-charles/pl.u-GgA50qbINoPzB

Le 7 septembre 2001, c'est toujours l'été à New York. Une température qui varie entre 25 et 30°C, de rares passages nuageux, c'est l'été indien comme on l'aime à Manhattan doit avoir lieu l'événement de l'année. En effet, ce soir à Madison Square Garden a lieu la première des deux représentations célébrant les 30 ans de carrière de Michael Jackson ? A 43 ans, c'est pas mal, hein ? Et encore ce sont les 30 ans du premier disque des Jacksons Five, avec qui il va jouer ce soir. Imaginez le truc, tous les frères Jackson seront sur scène pour un bon best of de leurs hits, c'est historique ! Mais ce n'est pas tout puisqu'une pléiade de géants de la pop, de Whitney Houston à Ray Charles en passant par Usher, Britney Spears et les Destiny's Child, seront aussi de la partie. Et puis bien sûr, Michael terminera seul avec trois titres dont son nouveau single, et oui, il s'agit aussi et surtout d'un programme télé pour CBS afin de lancer le nouvel album de Michael. Un Michael dont les ventes de disques s'éloignent de plus en plus du record de Thriller et qui, aussi, s'est plaint de ne pas avoir eu assez de temps pour répéter un tel événement télévisé.20 heures, la salle est en ébullition, avec ses plus de 20.000 sièges occupés mais voilà, Michael, qui est censé assister à la première partie aux premiers rangs, n'est toujours pas arrivé. 20.30, toujours pas de Michael et il ne répond pas au téléphone. Son assistant se fait ouvrir la porte de la chambre d'hôtel où il est descendu et constate que la star de la soirée est au lit. Il dort. T'as pris quelque chose ?Du Demorol, j'avais trop mal au dos.On se fiche de ce que tu as pris. Tu dois monter sur scène.Michael arrive très en retard et mal en point, au bras d'Elizabeth Taylor. Sous les flashes des photographes, il répond mécaniquement à une ou deux questions, comme un zombie. Ambiance Thriller. Et arrivé en coulisses, il dort debout. C'est la panique à la production, on a du mal à croire qu'il puisse assurer. Mais il y arrive malgré quelques hésitations, et bien sûr, une légère déception dans le public. Heureusement qu'il y a une seconde représentation dans trois jours, Michael a le temps de mettre au point ce qui ne fonctionne pas, et surtout d'être clair, en forme ce 10 septembre 2001 au soir.Même si l'audience cumulée des deux diffusions sur CBS de cette célébration dépassera les 70 millions de téléspectateurs en novembre, un chiffre ahurissant, ce ne seront cependant pas ces images que nous garderons imprimées de ce mois de septembre 2001 et qui vont, on le comprend, faire passer au second plan la sortie du nouvel album de Michael Jackson.

Send us a textThe Minnesota Twins hosted the San Diego Padres for a three-game set at Target Field in Minneapolis. The guys come away with a different perspective on Taj Bradley, and appreciate Rocco's shift in management style since the trade deadline. David is still furious due to games being broadcast by 3rd party providers, and Dan has a relaxing trip for work to a very hot San Antonio.

“The Blues Brothers” 1980 is packed with music and lots of law enforcement car chases. Then add in “Joliet” Jake and Elwood on “a mission from God” to save the orphanage, plus attacks on Jake's life by a mysterious woman left waiting at the altar, pursuit by the angry country western band, and attacks by a neo-Nazi party. What did I forget? Director John Landis herds these events into a crazy-quilt of music and mayhem.John Belushi is Jake Blues and Dan Aykroyd is blood brother Elwood. The large cast includes Cab Calloway, James Brown, Aretha Franklin, John Candy, Ray Charles, Twiggy, Steve Lawrence, Frank Oz, Henry Gibson, Steven Spielberg in the Assessor's office, Ralph Foody as Police Dispatcher, and a long list of other talented folks. Hang on!

Faith Hill showcases her powerful and versatile vocal stylings on her plaintive 1998 hit "Let Me Let Go". Vince Gill's harmony vocals don't hurt a bit either, but what are we to do with all these unorthodox chords? And what does Ray Charles have to do with it?

All week we're revisiting archival interviews with key figures in early rock and roll, rockabilly and R&B. We listen back to a 1989 interview with singer and pianist Charles Brown. Brown is credited with creating an expressive style of music that blended rough Texas blues with the soft glamour of Hollywood. And we revisit a 1998 interview with soul singer Ray Charles, who helped shape American music, beginning with his 1955 hit, “I Got a Woman.”Learn more about sponsor message choices: podcastchoices.com/adchoicesNPR Privacy Policy

Send us a textThe Minnesota Twins travel across the border into Canada and come away with one game in a three-game series against the Toronto Blue Jays, one of the top teams in the American League. The results leave David wanting more, especially because the Blue Jays seemed willing to give away Game 3. Dan is a bit more optimistic and saw plenty of good signs from the team's younger players, albeit there were also plenty of miscues. David thinks that Kody Clemens needs to give Matt Wallner some bat flip tips, and Dan thinks that Mickey Gasper has a little Willians Astudillo about him. The guys also preview the MLB 2026 schedule, which was released this week.

Today on part one the Rarified Heir Podcast, we speak to Sharyn Felder, daughter of one of the greatest songwriters of the 20th century, Doc Pomus. While you may not know the name Doc Pomus, you absolutely know his songs. Everyone from Elvis Presley, Dolly Parton, Bruce Springsteen, Ray Charles, Leonard Cohen, Dr. John, B.B. King have all recorded Doc Pomus songs…the list goes on and on. And we'll get to those songs he wrote shortly. On the day we spoke to Sharyn, it was release day of a new box set of her father's music, You Can't Hip a Square: The Doc Pomus Songwriting Demos on Omnivore Recordings, a six-CD set of lost, archival tracks that are a fascinating look into Doc's music and his voice. We also get to hear the back story of how the music survived, the family archive  as well as some famous people who also sang on the demos as well as the famous names whose sides didn't survive. Along the way we discuss more famous and infamous characters who were part of Doc's inner circle and those who sought out his help when the ships were down. And let us tell you, it's one hell of a list. Like who?  Robbie Robertson and Levon Helm when they were in Ronnie Hawkins band, Bob Dylan at a creative low point , Dr. John when he was struggling to quit heroin, Phil Spector, Bobby Darin, Otis Blackwell and many more. Somehow we concluded part one with a tale about the Runyon-esque existence her father lived to the fullest and the literal death of a clown. It's funny/not funny. Take a listen to this episode of the Rarified Heir Podcast.

Send us a textDuring a weekend series in Chicago, the Minnesota Twins made the White Sox look like a good baseball team, something that says a lot about the current state of both franchises. Dan is happy to see the returns of some of those midseason trades, though admittedly he'd like to see more out of Mick Abel and Taj Bradley. David has lots to say about the play and words of Royce Lewis, who might want to look more closely at his stats before he speaks about them. David and Dan discuss the just-announced 2026 game between the Twins and Phillies at the Iowa Field of Dreams, and Dan recounts a recent viewing of a childhood favorite baseball film.

The latest edition of Blues is the Truth is ready to roll and it's packed with a huge variety of sounds from every corner of the blues. You'll hear the raw power of Big Mama Thornton, Otis Rush, Albert King and T-Bone Walker alongside the modern fire of Breezy Rodio, Luca Kiella, The Cinelli Brothers, Kathy and the Kilowatts and Half Deaf Clatch. There's room for some legendary names too, with Eric Clapton, Ray Charles, Clarence Gatemouth Brown and Lightning Hopkins all taking their place in the mix. We revisit the grit of George “Wild Child” Butler and the Howlin' Wolf Band, the guitar fireworks of Kenny Wayne Shepherd, and the Chicago shuffle of Smokin' Joe Kubek. There are surprises with Tomiko Dixon, Maria McKee, the Slimline Shufflers and The Steady Rollin' Revue making appearances, plus the soulful swing of Chris Corcoran and the energy of the Kerry Kearney Band. Whether it's the timeless edge of Howlin' Wolf himself or the fresh perspectives of today's rising stars, this episode is a reminder of why the blues remains as vital as ever.

Send us a textAt home against the homeless Athletics, the Minnesota Twins lose all three contests at Target Field to continue a stretch of bad baseball played by what is now a very young team. David sees some hope in the play of Brooks Lee but is disappointed at other young players' performances. Dan is pleased to see Joe Ryan and Bailey Ober giving the team their all. David muses about a favorite song and wishes that the Pohlads had a love for baseball in their heart. The guys discuss the various realignment proposals that have recently circulated, and they look around at a violent (baseball-related) act in the minor leagues.

Each host shares their personal top five tracks that showcase the power of keys.Professor Aubrey's picks span from Billy Preston's legendary turn on The Beatles' “Get Back”, to Stevie Wonder's funk-defining “Superstition”, the haunting post-punk of Joy Division's “Love Will Tear Us Apart”, MGMT's psychedelic anthem “Kids”, and the shimmering dance beat of Arcade Fire's “Sprawl II.”Tim the Nerd counters with his own heavy-hitting lineup: The Who's stadium-shaking “Baba O'Riley”, Van Halen's synth-laden “I'll Wait”, Ray Charles' groundbreaking “What'd I Say”, Queen's operatic masterpiece “Bohemian Rhapsody”, and The Doors' moody classic “Riders On The Storm.”Listeners can head over to the Friends Talking Nerdy website and cast their vote for whose playlist reigns supreme.But the episode doesn't stop there.

Send us a textThe Minnesota Twins drop 3 of 4 to the Detroit Tigers at Target Field. The boys try to stay positive knowing the rest of this season is a lost cause. Dan is still trying to figure who is a starting pitcher on this baseball team, and David is furious at Rocco's decisions to close out game 1. Further, David is convinced Rocco needs coaching help to get better at being angry. David is trying to find a reason to keep watching this season, and Dan offers some optimism looking ahead to 2026.

A los 91 años ha muerto Quincy Jones, nombre clave y factótum de la industria musical que estaba a punto de recibir el Oscar honorífico. Será el tercer premio póstumo tras los de Douglas Fairbanks en 1940 y Edward G. Robinson en 1973. Trabajó (por sólo decir algunos de los nombres más destacados) con Michael Jackson (al que convirtió en el rey del pop) y Frank Sinatra (al que recuperó tras sus incursiones en el cine) así como con Miles Davis, Aretha Franklin, Ella Fitzgerald o Ray Charles. Se convirtió en pieza valiosa indisociable a la música del siglo XX y ganó hasta 28 Grammys (6 de ellos llegaron en 1990 por "Back on the block") coronando un legado lleno versatilidad y trascendencia. Este reportaje pertenece al programa "El Cine de LoQueYoTeDiga" nº 448 (16x05) y fue emitido el 9 de noviembre de 2024.

We stand in gratitude to Bruce Vilanch for Peak Hollywood's most treasured and iconic entertainment history moments. Bruce is an EGOT Award Show Writer and he's penned warehouses and server farms full of TV Variety shows and specials with lingering legacies. As infamous Youtube gems were mined, during lockdown, by intrepid Millennial podcasters, Bruce bravely opened wounds to spill toxic details.Yes, we are talking Star Wars Holiday & Paul Lynde Halloween Specials. The hot tea is on tap in Bruce's new book, It Seemed Like A Bad Idea At The Time.As a child, Bruce was not just your garden variety funny fat kid. His mother recognized his unique potential and submitted young Bruce as a Lane Bryant Charming Chub print model.  His journalism career took off at summer camp where Bruce successfully avoided outdoor activities by writing a popular and dishy camp newspaper. During college he went pro as a cub reporter for The Chicago Tribune, watching the films Gene Siskel elected to skip. A review of Bette Midler's cabaret show led to a collaborative lifelong friendship.The pattern has continued with Whoopi Goldberg, Billy Crystal, Dolly Parton and beyond. Bruce's comedic charms are so potent, he can take stinkers like Can't Stop The Music and Ice Pirates (featuring Bruce as a court jesting body-less head) and  churn hilarity. Wherever the comedy leaned towards tragedy, Bruce mined the gold that is his new book.Bruce also tells us how Donny Osmond's pull with Mormon elders got a Utah affiliate to broadcast Bette Midler's HBO special. Bruce then boldly addresses the Jo Koy Golden Globes fiasco. He imparts the famous legend of Beethoven (the dog's) Oscar movement, and tells of his daring journey in search of a look at Milton Berle's alleged equipment.But, Bruce's glories will not be outshined by his duds because we are ringing in a round of IMDB Roulette in which we celebrate: Ray Charles, Dolly Parton Elizabeth Taylor and The Constitution!

Send us a textThe Minnesota Twins went to Yankee Stadium and did something entirely expected in losing a series, two games to one. What was not so expected (but maybe should have been) was the news that the Pohlad family is no longer intending to sell the team. David and Dan react to that news as they also look at what the trade deadline deals have done to the Twins decidedly younger roster. David weighs whether he should give up his season tickets. Dan suggests that this behavior by the Pohlads is nothing to be surprised at, though the loss of hope is palpable.

Ray Charles famously sang, "What'd I say?" A lot of times, musicians genuinely leave their audiences asking that very thing. The siblings bring that question to life once again with a variety of musicians across a wide range of genres. Do these musicians have a soft spot for potty humor, or are we just hearing things? Is Ronnie Dunn a superhero, or is he playing games with us? Find out all of these answers and more as we dive into 15 new misheard lyrics on the 4th installment of what is always one of The Music List's fanbase's favorite episodes of the year.

A request for an encore podcast of our conversation with the Late Honorable Representative John Lewis, Prince and Billie Holiday, moderated by Luana Anders on the flipside, and Jennifer Shaffer (.com) on this side... from the liner notes: Another mind bending session. Apologies for the wifi interruptions on audio... there's a moment in here where I ask Representative Lewis about three names - James, Andrew and Michael.  Prior to the session - I knew who they were. All freedom riders (like John) and two of them he knew well.  When he reported through Jennifer being reconnected with them... and then I asked him to show Jennifer who they were... and she correctly says on camera that they were murdered by the KKK... it doesn't get any more proof of concept than that. The "Emmett" I refer to is the one and only Emmett Till - the 14 year old boy murdered in the South whose death effected John Lewis immensely.  Apologies for becoming emotional - but sometimes this information is overwhelming.  I can only imagine what he describes to Jennifer - the standing ovation from millions of people who had been hurt, whose lives he honored with his life. Last week - we asked him to come forward but I didn't name him - this week Prince returned to introduce him to the class.  He was the one who mentions Billie Holiday and I took the opportunity to ask her some simple questions. It was John who I researched this morning when I realized that he might show up in class today. Apologies to anyone this interview might offend - but in terms of his life, and his journey, I am here to state unequivocally, I film these, I report these for the same reasons that John walked into a wall of billy clubs in order to speak the truth.  The part about Jesus is in the transcripts of both "Hacking the Afterlife" the book and "Architecture of the Afterlife."   The interviews with Dr. King, James Brown, Ray Charles and others is in "Backstage Pass to the Flipside 3."  We're just reporting.

Send us a textThe Minnesota Twins take 2 of 3 from the visiting Kansas City Royals at Target Field. The new-look Twins feature a youthful energy that has David and Dan excited even though the games at this point are unlikely to lead to a postseason berth. The guys are both falling hard for Luke Keaschall and believe he could be a centerpiece of this team moving forward. David loves Rocco's new piggie-back pitcher management, and Dan wants to know how this team will rebuild the bullpen this offseason. David asks the question no one wants to answer: Will the Twins trade Joe Ryan, Bailey Ober, and Pablo Lopez this offseason?

Deeper Roots means just that…and this week we're spinning some blues, gospel, r&b, and swing … all music that introduced the rhythm that would become known as rock ‘n roll. We'll go as far back as the late 1930s with Joe Turner and Pete Johnson and make the picaresque journey across the alleys, juke joints, and house parties where tradition and urban electric blues became the foundation of a sound. We'll share blues from Little Walter, Jimmy Reed, John Lee Hooker and a handful of others. Also on tap, Goree Carter, Sticks McGhee, Amos Milburn and Julia Lee with some rhythm and blues and jump whose beat and attitude would influence many a rock ‘n roll musician and songwriter. Also on board: Hadda Brooks, Ray Charles, Louis Jordan and Tiny Bradshaw. Don't miss a wailin', rockin' morning here on KOWS Community Radio.

Gaea Star Crystal Radio Hour #631 is an hour of compelling, visionary acoustic improvised music played by The Gaea Star Band with Mariam Massaro on vocals, Native flute, acoustic guitar, mandolin, ukulele and harmonica, Bob Sherwood on piano and Craig Harris on Native drum and congas. Recorded live in late July of 2025 at Singing Brook Studio in Worthington, Massachusetts, today's show begins with the hallucinatory, hazy summer anthem “Love Is The Holy Sacred Way”, an energetic minor workout with a soaring vocal and a gorgeous, unusual coda of soaring Native flute, heartbeat drum and lush, imaginative key cycles on the piano. “Deep Inside Is The Divine” is a deep blues with earthy harmonica and Ray Charles influenced piano work and “In Your Doorway” is a fantastical, breathless mandolin-driven rocker with a fine vocal and skipping congas. This piece codas into another panoramic Native flute coda called “Humaya”, an intense, focused accompaniment from the ensemble that reintroduces Mariam's vocal in a deeply spiritual, chanting poem. “Flowing Like Spirit” is an affecting acoustic guitar ballad with a wistful, gentle vocal from Mariam and “Flowers Of Delight” from Mariam's “Release” LP is presented with a serene, mystical vibe that supports a particularly fine vocal and soaring Native flute from Mariam. “Blessed By Every Delight (In The Grandest Union)” is another playful, mesmerizing, skipping mandolin-driven reel that evokes the deep forest to conclude today's hour.   Learn more about Mariam here: http://www.mariammassaro.com

David returns from his board game vacation and finally gets the opportunity to give his thoughts about the trade deadline. Andrew "Hoges" Hoganson fills in for Dan and  the guys discuss Luke Keaschall and try to determine if he's really this good, or if it's just a fluky small sample size. David goes into detail regarding the Correa trade, and he and Hoges find themselves on different sides of the argument.

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 2019 conversation with Valerie Simpson of Ashford & Simpson. ABOUT VALERIE SIMPSONSix-time Grammy nominee Valerie Simpson is best known as one half of the songwriting, production and performing duo of Ashford and Simpson, which she formed with musical partner and eventual husband Nick Ashford after they met at a church in Harlem, New York, in the early 1960s.  After early successes with Aretha Franklin's recording of “Cry Like a Baby” and Ray Charles' recordings of “Let's Go Get Stoned” and “I Don't Need No Doctor,” Nick and Valerie signed with Motown Records, first as songwriters, where their early successes included the hit singles “Ain't No Mountain High Enough” and “Your Precious Love,” recorded by Marvin Gaye and Tammi Terrell. They soon began both writing and producing for the duo, with hits such as “Ain't Nothing Like the Real Thing,” “You're All I Need to Get By,” “Good Lovin' Ain't Easy to Come By,” and “What You Gave Me.” Additional writing and production credits at Motown came with hits by The Supremes, The Marvelettes, The Miracles, Gladys Knight, and Diana Ross, who found success with “Reach Out and Touch (Somebody's Hand)” “Remember Me,” “Surrender,” and a remake of “Ain't No Mountain High Enough” that topped both the pop and R&B charts.   In addition to writing #1 hits such as Quincy Jones's “Stuff Like That” and Chaka Khan's “I'm Every Woman” after their Motown period, Ashford and Simpson began releasing their own recordings as a duo, landing nearly 40 songs on the Billboard R&B singles chart. Their list of Top 10 hits as artists, includes “It Seems to Hang On,” “Found a Cure,” “Love Don't Make it Right,” “Street Corner,” “Outta the World,” “Count Your Blessings,” “I'll Be There For You,” and “Solid.”   Ashford and Simpson were the recipients of the ASCAP Founder's Award, which is the highest honor bestowed by the organization. They were inducted into the Songwriters Hall of Fame, named among Rolling Stone Magazine's 100 Greatest Songwriters of All Time, and provided the inspiration for the establishment of the Soul Train Ashford & Simpson Songwriter's Award. Following Nick's untimely death in 2011, Valerie has continued to write, record, and even appear on Broadway in the acclaimed musical Chicago.

Send us a textIn the aftermath of a crazy trade deadline, Dan and Hoges discuss the Minnesota Twins' series loss to the Cleveland Guardians. Hoges dwells on the positive of winning a one-run game in Cleveland for the first time in forever, while Dan is still feeling betrayed by Carlos Correa. They are both interested in seeing which young players take advantage of extra playing time, especially in the bullpen, which had itself a pretty decent series. Hoges debates whether he should renew his season tickets for next year, and Dan figures that anyone leaving the team now isn't a true fan.

Send us a textIt's happened: The Minnesota Twins have become sellers at the MLB trade deadline. Dan and Hoges discuss the move to trade Jhoan Duran to the Philadelphia Phillies, as well as the team's dispiriting series loss to the Boston Red Sox. Dan is upset over Carlos Correa's alleged willingness to go back to the Astros, while Hoges is upset at how Rocco Baldelli is managing his team as it shifts toward the last couple months of the season. They both wonder whether Rocco will survive a change in ownership -- and also whether the Twins are done trading away players as this disappointing season enters its final phases.

0:00 - Can Bo Nix avoid the feared Sophomore Slump? More importantly, is that even a real thing? Sean Payton isn't worried about it at all.15:18 - Bo Nix spent a few days hanging out with Drew Brees this summer. Brett raised an interesting question: can the GOATs really teach young guys? Sometimes, the best players ever have a natural ability and athleticism that can't really be taught. 36:18 - Brett's an old soul, He still listens to Ray Charles and Frank Sinatra on vinyl.

Here's a preview from a new podcast, Charlie's Place. How did a Black man in the 1940s Jim Crow South open a club where Black and white people danced together? Charlie's Place was revolutionary, and that meant it was dangerous. Host Rhym Guissé explores the unbelievable true story of Charlie Fitzgerald, a mysterious Black businessman whose nightclub became an unlikely site of integration in Myrtle Beach. Charlie broke down racial barriers through the power of music and dance, hosting some of the greatest musicians of our time: Little Richard, Count Basie, Ray Charles, Duke Ellington, and many more. But who was Charlie? How did he rise to power? And what price did he pay for achieving the impossible—an integrated club in the Jim Crow South? This is a story of joy and passion that erupted into violence and changed a community forever. Listen to Charlie's Place wherever you get your podcasts.

Send us a textComing out of the All-Star Break, the Minnesota Twins give Colorado Rockies fans something of a surprise: a series victory for the Coors Field faithful. It's a disappointing series for the Twins, who fall three games under .500 and waste a chance to do better following what was an exciting pair of performances by Byron Buxton and Joe Ryan in Atlanta earlier in the week. David wonders whether Ryan has reached legitimate ace status, while Dan is eager to see the Twins shake up the roster by releasing one player and demoting another. Dan also praises Rocco Baldelli for his off-day management, but David is confused about Rocco's pinch-hitting choices.

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 2016 conversation with Mike Stoller. ABOUT MIKE STOLLERMike Stoller has written more than 60 songs that have appeared on the Billboard charts, including the #1 hits “Hound Dog,” “Kansas City,” “Yakety Yak,”  “Searchin',” “Jailhouse Rock,” “Poison Ivy,” “Stand By Me,” “Young Blood,” “Don't,” and “Ruby, Baby." After Stoller and songwriting partner Jerry Leiber found early R&B success with recordings by Little Esther, Charles Brown, Ray Charles, and Big Mama Thornton, Elvis Presley turned their song "Hound Dog" into a #1 single on the pop, R&B, and country charts in 1956. Elvis went on to record more than 20 Leiber and Stoller titles, including the hits "Love Me," "Loving You," "Jailhouse Rock," "Treat Me Nice," "She's Not You," and "Bossa Nova Baby." Mike and Jerry signed an independent production deal with Atlantic Records in the mid-1950s, where they wrote and produced a series of hits for several artists, including the Drifters' "There Goes My Baby," "Dance With Me," and "On Broadway." Additionally, the pair wrote and produced all the Coasters' singles, including "Young Blood," "Searchin'," "Charlie Brown," "Along Came Jones," and "Poison Ivy." Other highlights from the Leiber and Stoller songbook include "Love Potion No. 9," which was a hit for both the Clovers and the Searchers, and "Is That All There Is," which was a hit for Peggy Lee. Eleven different versions of their song “Stand By Me” appeared on the Billboard charts over the span of 50 years, with the original version by Ben E. King hitting the Top 10 in both 1961 and 1986. Smokey Joe's Cafe, which included 40 Leiber and Stoller songs, opened in 1995 and became the longest running musical revue in Broadway history. Stoller received the prestigious ASCAP Founders Award in 1991, has a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame, and is a member of both the Songwriters Hall of Fame and the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.

Hour 1 The Knicks hired Mike Brown as their new head coach, a move many see as lateral from Tom Thibodeau. The press conference is expected to focus on Thibodeau's departure, as the team hasn't addressed it publicly. Brown inherits the strongest Knicks team in recent memory. In MLB news, the Yankees lost to Toronto despite a comeback, while the Mets won with a Brandon Nimmo grand slam. Francisco Lindor, named an All-Star starter, also homered. Clayton Kershaw achieved his 3,000th strikeout. ESPN's Jeff Passan criticized Yankees fans' complaints. Hour 2 Gio loves the Fourth of July, enjoying fireworks with Ray Charles' "America The Beautiful." Callers debated Anthony Volpe's performance and Boomer's positivity. Gio shared a personal anecdote about a golf ball incident and an allergic reaction. Later, Jerry provided an update, including Evan Roberts' reaction to the Mike Brown hiring. The Yankees lost to Toronto again, with Aaron Judge discussing their slump. The Mets split their doubleheader, believing a winning streak has begun. Golfer Max Homa is leaving X (formerly Twitter) due to its negativity, calling it a "safe haven for assh***s." Hour 3 Boomer believes his prom song was "Candle In The Wind," a choice that surprised Gio. A caller celebrated Mike Brown's hiring as Knicks coach. The hosts then discussed high school class and prom songs, with Gio noting Boomer's supportive golf demeanor with one exception. Jerry's update covered the Yankees' loss to Toronto despite a comeback, and the Mets' win against the Brewers, featuring a Brandon Nimmo grand slam and Francisco Lindor's home run and All-Star starter nomination. Clayton Kershaw also achieved his 3,000th strikeout. The segment concluded by mentioning Green Day's "Good Riddance" as a common farewell song. Hour 4 Gio noted several All-Stars, like Pete Crow-Armstrong, with past Mets ties, prompting a caller's anger at David Stearns for their departure. Another caller questioned the Knicks' free agency plans, with Gio suggesting Rich Paul might try to bring LeBron to the Knicks, though Boomer believes they're set. Jerry's final update followed Gio's musings on Zyn pouches and his love for Rum Raisin Haagen-Dazs. The Yankees' comeback fell short against the Brewers due to Devin Williams, while the Mets won game two with a Brandon Nimmo grand slam. The "Moment of The Day" highlighted Gio's golf course allergic reaction. The show will be off next week, with Jerry hosting with Willie Colon on Monday and Wednesday.
