Bo DonaldsonTake a walk with me down Fascination Street as I get to know Bo Donaldson. Bo Donaldson and the Heywoods had the number one song in America in June of 1974; with the timeless hit "Billy, Don't Be a Hero". They also had hits on the charts all throughout the 70's. In this episode, we chat about how he got into music, and how his band came to be. Bo shares great stories about his mom deciding that she was going to meet Dick Clark and get him to make her son's band famous.... and then she did it! We also discuss some of the band's early days, where they opened for The Osmonds for over 300 shows. I pry just a bit into Bo's personal life and try to get to the bottom of some of the rumors about him dating Valerie Bertinelli before Eddie Van Halen. Along the way, we chat about each of the charting hits for the band, other fun Dick Clark stories, some previous guests of this show, Bo's real age, and why on earth he likes Cincinnati's Skyline chili so darn much! Plus, he lets me play their number one hit, as well as a little-known television show theme song the band wrote at the request of Dick Clark. Bo Donaldson and The Heywoods are still playing occasional shows in and around Southern California, and they are even playing a show in Buffalo, Ny in July. Check BoDonaldsonAndTheHeywoods.com for everything about the band; including new music, and tour dates.
Jeff Copeland is the author of the new book Love You Madly, Holly Woodlawn: A Walk On The Wild Side With Andy Warhol's Most Fabulous Superstar. By the mid-1980s, Holly Woodlawn, once lauded by George Cukor for her performance in the 1970 Warhol production and Paul Morrissey directed Trash, and the inspiration to the opening verse of the 1973 Lou Reed song “Walk On The Wildside”, was washed up. But a chance meeting with Copeland, who moved to Hollywood with dreams of ‘making it' as a television writer, changed the course of BOTH of their lives forever. This is the story of how an unlikely friendship between a young gay writer and a “mature” trans-gender actress and performer created the bestselling autobiography of 1991, A Low Life in High Heels.

We are celebrating The Golden Girls and Disco! The masterful creative output of the 70s and 80s continues to inform and inspire! Diving deep to illuminate this point are coffee table book couple, Jim Colucci and Frank DeCaro. Jim's book, Golden Girls Forever: An Unauthorized Look Behind The Lanai is packed with hundreds of exclusive interviews, behind-the-scenes and never-before-revealed stories, more than two hundred rare photos, Golden Girls sets, fashion, memorable quotes and more.Jim tells us about The Rule of Four, led by Blanche, Rose, Dorothy and Sophia that's become a sitcom template. He shares the secret formula to Golden Girls' success. Great writing x phenomenal performances. We address what fueled the Betty/Bea personality clash, and we learn how Maude, Soap and a skit promoting NBC's new 1984 programming sparked the conception of a show about women of a certain age that changed friendships, social norms, and how we view cheesecake, forever.Frank's book, Disco: Music, Movies, and Mania under the Mirror Ball, is a comprehensive guide to the queer, club music that became a dance sensation, a fashion craze and a mainstream lifestyle. Gay men and black women created the driving rhythms of Disco music and dancing, but white men, like the Bee Gees and Travolta, carried it on a shimmering wave through middle America. Studio 54's denizens were draped in skimpy haute couture while the masses were obsessed with themed merchandise, examples of which have become iconic pieces of modern kitsch. We also hear about Frank and Jim's meet-cute, Jim's first journalism assignment at a mobbed (never pardon our puns) Soprano's casting call, and the conversation doesn't end until it reaches its logical conclusion: the Nancy Walker factor.In recommendations --Weezy: The movie Dreamin' Wild on HuluFritz: The documentary, Ladies And Gentlemen... 50 Years of SNL Music on PeacockPath Points of Interest:Jim ColucciGolden Girls Forever: An Unauthorized Look Behind The LanaiJim Colucci Amazon Author PageJim Colucci on InstagramFrank DeCaroFrank Decaro on WikiFrank Decaro Show Facebook GroupFrank Decaro on InstagramDisco: Music, Movies, and Mania under the Mirror BallFrank Decaro Amazon Author PageDreamin' Wild - HuluLadies And Gentlemen... 50 Years of SNL Music - Peacock

The music NEVER stopped.On this episode we dive into one of the better pop culture documentaries that we have seen in recent memory in 'Disco's Revenge'.In the early 70s, the beat child of New York's Black and LGBTQ+ communities was born on the city's underground dance floor. Disco emerged as an exuberant musical genre, a vital social movement and a vibrant culture before enduring a vicious backlash nearly a decade later. In our collective pop-culture imagination, Disco's merely a fad relegated to soft-focus memories of Saturday Night Fever and Studio 54. It is a pulsating deep dive into the very soul of disco music and its enduring impact across genres and history, told by the people who created it, nurtured it, and in turn, discovered themselves on the dancefloor. The film asks: Why does disco matter and, in these divisive times, why does disco matter now more than ever? Featuring interviews and performances by Nile Rodgers and Chic, Billy Porter, Nona Hendryx and LaBelle, Grandmaster Flash, Fab Five Freddy, Nicky Siano, Earl Young and The Trammps, Jellybean Benitez, Kevin Saunderson, Sylvester and Martha Wash and many others. Never has a film really got as anthropological when looking at a slice of music culture and that's what makes 'Disco's Revenge' so damn special. With sit down with writer/direcfor's Omar Majeed and Peter Mishara to get deep into the groove of it all.'Disco's Revenge' is on all VOD platforms.

”Went to Fiorucci and it's so much fun there. It's everything I've always wanted, all plastic.” —Andy Warhol i sin dagbok, 21 December 1983. Disco, denim och änglar – i veckans avsnitt tar vi oss till hjärtat av 70- och 80-talets Manhattan och historien om det italienska modefenomenet Fiorucci. Vi fördjupar oss i den legendariska butiken på East 59th Street, en butik som blev ett andra hem för alla subversivt kreativa själar med partybehov (inklusive storheter som Andy Warhol och Madonna), som mixade disco med konst, denim med glam, och kom att definiera 70-talets "dagtida" partyscen.

In the latest episode of *Over the Ball*, the hosts dive deep into the US Men's National Team's disappointing performance against Canada, calling out their lackluster play, sloppy defense, and seeming apathy on the field. They also explore the brewing battle for the goalkeeper spot between Patrick Schulte and Ethan Horvath, while expressing cautious optimism for improvement under new coach Pochettino. Joining the conversation is Keith Tozer, commissioner of the Major Arena Soccer League (MASL), who shares insights into the league's rapid growth, the push for soccer-specific stadiums, and the exciting potential for promotion and relegation. Tozer also highlights the importance of youth development through academy programs and teases the upcoming player combine, offering a pathway for emerging talent. In a lively exchange, Tozer reflects on his own career, his experiences with Tommy Mulroy, and his time in the international soccer scene, capping it off with fun anecdotes about playing at Madison Square Garden and visiting Studio 54. This engaging episode wraps up with Tozer promoting an exciting upcoming MASL event.
Studio 54 was much more than a club. It was the embodiment of disco — a movement that empowered LGBTQ+ Americans and prepared them for a fight they never saw coming. Hal Rubenstein, a fashion icon, was a regular there. He remembers how the highs of the 70s sustained him through the lows of the 80s.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Join us as we welcome James DuMont, an actor, producer, and self-tape audition specialist, who takes us on a nostalgic journey from his early days dancing in "Blues Brothers" to a pivotal role on Broadway.

In this episode Jeremy and Tim walk us past the velvet rope and into opening night at Studio 54. They introduce us to Steve Rubell and Ian Schrager, the two businessmen who owned the club, as well as to the often overlooked Carmen D'Alessio, who's taste and art world connections were crucial to the look and feel of the party. Through these characters and more we get to learn about the founding of Studio 54. We also hear discussions on Muzak, eclecticism, returning champion Nicky Siano, and the aesthetics of ‘smoothness'. Tim and Jeremy interrogate the surprising links between Downtown and Midtown, explore how journalists tried to understand the Studio 54 phenomenon, and contemplate whether they even like disco anymore.

In this episode Jeremy and Tim discuss the economic and social setting into which Studio 54 opened in 1977. They talk about the differences between midtown and downtown scenes, the antagonism (or lack thereof) between punk and disco, subcultural theory and escapism. How did disco become so popular so quickly? The guys explore the commercial phenomenon as it exploded after 1975, including the first Disco Convention in 1976 (with awards ceremony!), the in-crowd vs the suburbs, and an extended meditation on the history and value of gimmick records.

Andy Warhol once said, “The key of the success of Studio 54 is that it's a dictatorship at the door and a democracy on the dance floor.” We begin this episode with Steve Rubell and Ian Schrager on the evening of April 26, 1977 as they open the doors to Studio 54, smack-dab in the middle of the glitter and grime in and around Midtown Manhattan. We discuss Warhol moving from being the darling of academic art nerds to mainstream provocateur and celebrity worshiper, bringing his scene with him. - - - - - Visit our full episode page for show notes, the visual examples we discuss, additional links and more! https://www.twodesignerswalkintoabar.com/episodes/episode-61-factory-meets-54 - - - - - Have a question or idea for Todd and Elliot?

Behind every unforgettable space and every extraordinary experience is a certain je ne sais quoi. If anyone has an idea of what exactly that is, it's the hospitality impresario and Studio 54 co-founder Ian Schrager. For more than four decades, Schrager has been a defining cultural catalyst and beacon across industries, from hotels and nightlife, to art and architecture, to fashion and food, and beyond. Since the early 1980s, Schrager has devised and developed more than 20 ahead-of-the-curve hospitality properties, including the Public hotel (2017) in New York City and the Edition line of hotels, as well as, going further back, the Morgans (1982), the Paramount (1990), the Hudson (2000), and the Gramercy Park Hotel (2006) in New York; the Mondrian (1996) in Los Angeles; the Delano (1995) in Miami; St. Martins Lane and the Sanderson (both 1998) in London; and the Clift (2000) in San Francisco. Beyond designing for mere aesthetic appreciation, Schrager cultivates places with a soul and spirit all their own.On this episode—our 100th—Schrager discusses his tried-and-true design philosophies and definition of luxury today; his admiration for the visionary thinking of Steve Jobs, Elon Musk, and Walt Disney; and the enduring aura of Studio 54.Special thanks to our Season 8 sponsor, Van Cleef & Arpels.Show notes: [00:33] Ian Schrager[02:54] Morgans Hotel[02:59] Studio 54[03:02] Steve Rubell[06:26] Edition Hotels[06:33] Arne Sorenson[12:44] Public Hotels[13:03] Paramount Hotel[13:29] The Royalton[14:45] Hudson Hotel[24:37] John Pawson[26:04] The Palladium[26:05] Arata Isozaki[33:24] “Studio 54” Documentary[42:41] Enchanted Garden[50:48] Bianca Jagger[50:51] Truman Capote[50:51] Andy Warhol[50:56] Issey Miyake[53:33] Paul Goldberger[01:03:01] Paperless Post

Break out your spatula and tongs because this week on the podcast we are joined by grillmaster and television personality, George Motz! We get the literal hottest tips from this burger expert about the best way to grill burgers (it's not outdoors), discuss the "stunt burger" phenomenon and bond over our similar opinions on the abomination known as surf and turf. We then flip the metaphorical burger patty to discuss George's experiences as a kid taking the train into NYC to see matinee shows at the infamous CBGB (not to be confused with Studio 54). We also discuss the best food to eat at shows, our own culinary experiences as touring musicians/comedians and did you know there are jails on cruise ships? Finally we play a food-centric game of CHANGE DOT DORK where we debate the merits of paying your parents rent, serving veggie burgers at school and the enduring legacy of BBQ Fritos. Be sure to check out George's signature burger now available on Virgin Voyages and his new NYC restaurant Hamburger America, which is opening soon!See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
