I have known Sophia Eptamenitis as a co-worker for years. She shared a Spotify freestyle music playlist with me and I shared a podcast I did with Sweet Sensation's Jenae Colon. And that is how I found out that Sophia is a screenwriter who had, at the time of this interview, a movie that she co-wrote in the Top 10 in the UK and US on Netflix. What is that movie? Listen to her journey maintaining a day job while pursuing her dreams as a talented screenwriter. Hear about all of her project, especially the series that she did on her own on Amazon Prime. What I learned from this is that all we have to do is talk to one another and there is a world of discovery that lies ahead. #Netflix #UK #US #DeepFear #AmazonPrime #WhatExit #SophiaEptamenitis #Screenwriter #SixDegreesofMiles #RighteousMusicMedia True Transparency: Had Technical difficulties with Sophia's interview so had to pick up where we left off part 2. Listen to her journey. It is an amazing conversations of the ups and downs and her tenacity of obtaining her goals. It's a long journey but slow and steady wins the race. #Netflix #UK #US #DeepFear #AmazonPrime #WhatExit #SophiaEptamenitis #Screenwriter #SixDegreesOfMiles #RighteousMusicMedia

Tony started his professional career in the music industry in 1980 at the age of 16 years old. Playing drums since the age of 3 Tony had been pounding on his dad's 1948 Radio King drum set that was a fixture in the basement of his Queens, NY home! Not only was Tony's dad a professional musician but his grandfather and his great grandfather back in Italy were as well. It seems that music was Tony's destiny. With so many musicians in the family, Tony's listening palette was broad and wide! Opera and Big band jazz were the main stays on the turntables back then. As was the Beatles, Bee Gee's, James Taylor and all the pop artists of the day. One influential film Tony remembers was “The Glenn Miller Story”. In the story “Glenn” is searching for that “sound”. Tony's Mom would often refer to this, as Tony would come up from the basement looking for that “sound” on his drums - bewildered as to how the drums sounded so big and fat on the records. The quest was on for the “Holiest of Grails” a great drum sound! As time passed, Tony went on to work in the Studio and Live concerts with the likes of Taylor Swift, Katy Perry, Selena Gomez, Carrie Underwood, Ramone, Diane Warren, Keith Thomas, Kip Winger, Bruce Springsteen, Michael Broening, Amy Grant, Donna Summer, Roberta Flack, Paul Taylor, Discrete Drums Loop Series, Toby Mac, Cindy Bradley, Jay Soto, Stephanie Smith, Ayeisha Woods, Rebecca Saint James, Britt Nicole, Stevie B, Sweet Sensation, Kathy Troccoli, Regie Hamm, Crystal Lewis, Avalon, John Elefante, Van Zandt and on. His career has taken him from NYC to LA to his current residence in Franklin, TN. (A quaint city 14 miles outside of Music Row in downtown Nashville.) Tony is a successful session drummer and producer in Nashville. After years of touring, he had the good fortune to get into the session scene in town. The scene was healthy but still changing. Session work was going through some severe changes due to budgets and technical changes. After an encounter with LA session musician J.R Robinson, Tony was convinced that the future of tracking was going to be done in the home. Now for a gtr track or vocal overdub maybe so, but drums? Here we go again searching for that “sound” in a 25 x 25 Garage built for storing cars and gardening equipment not killer drum sounds. With much investigation and a great builder with vision, they turned the Garage and Utility room into what now is one of the busiest drum tracking rooms in town. For 8 years now Tony Morra has been tracking drums for demos, custom records, indie projects. Sounds about right, but NO! There's more!( Billy Mayes moment) Tony is tracking drums for Masters, Television, Film, Loop Libraries you hear on TV and on radio everyday. Tony is one of the leaders in home recording through the Internet since it was possible to do so! He has been a beta tester for many online programs that make it easier to do sessions in real time. What was thought to be a little drum room for some extra work has turned into a livelihood. Tony's clients span the world! These sessions are done at his home with the sounds rivaling those done in the largest and most expensive studios. A big part of Tony's career was happening when he thought he had no career! In between gigs and tours in NY when work was lean, Tony would find work as an assistant engineer at jingle studios for jingle writer friends of his. He would also get to play live drums for them from time to time, but this was when the industry was moving to drum machines and loops. These experiences, which he took for granted in that he was just “collecting a check when gigs were slow”, gave him a wealth of knowledge of the recording industry and working with midi and sequencers. Mind you this is before Pro Tools! All editing was done with a razor and a prayer. Oh and he knows how to align a tape machine! That knowledge has paid huge dividends in that beyond being an accomplished musician, he is an accomplished tracking engineer. Still Tony will bring in Top Nashville engineers to help dial in new sounds and experiment with gear. His room is outfitted with the best gear there is, Daking, API, GML, Avalon, Neve EQ's, DBX 160's, Distressors, Telefunken Pre's, vintage Orbans and so on! The mics are no joke; Neumann U47, AKG's, Audio Technica, KM 184's, modified Ribbons.........and a ProTools HDX system. It's a new world and a new frontier in recording. Tony's embracing it! Using what's available to make the finest quality Drum Tracks available for those who might never have been able to afford to do so and for those where budget is not even a concern. Some Things That Came Up: -3:00 Italian Family Legacy -7:00 Music was in the family blood. -10:30 Sitting in with Margaret Manning. -11:45 Compliments to Tony's drumming Dad -13:45 George Lawerence now has Tony's Dad's Big Band Charts -14:50 Playing drums while Mom did housework -18:30 Worked at The Modern Drum Shop in NYC and studying with Joe Cusatis -19:50 The Ted Reed Book and The Bellson Book -20:00 Cusatis Method: Play any rhythm with the right hand and fill in the triplets with the left. -24:05 The lost art of teaching swing -27:00 Trying to impress music teacher at private school -29:45 Auditioning for Queens College -30:10 Danny Gottlieb, Rod Morgenstein in the neighborhood -31:55 Tympani Tuning Incident -35:00 Driving vans for a zipper company -36:00 Drinking Grappa with Marco Soccoli -38:00 Hanging with world class drummers at Manny's Music -38:30 Drum Programming inspired by Sammy Merendino -39:00 Wedding bands in NYC were a right of passage -40:33 Intern for “The Jingle Queen of NY” at age 23, learning engineering, MIDI -43:00 Incorporating clicks and loops.

A Quick Info Session to Brighten Your Day For Friday 3/31/23
Hello everyone and welcome to another edition of Interviewing the Legends I'm your host Ray Shasho. In a distinguished career as a singer, songwriter and producer, William Bell has come to define the essence of “soul.” Born in Memphis but based in Atlanta since 1970, William Bell was one of the pioneers of the classic Stax/Volt sound, joining such other illustrious musical forces at that label as Otis Redding, Sam and Dave, Isaac Hayes, Booker T. & the MG's, Albert King, Eddie Floyd, Carla and Rufus Thomas, The Staple Singers and the Bar-Kays, among others. After a two-year stint in the Armed Forces, William released his first full-length album in 1967, the classic The Soul of a Bell, which included the Top 20 hit single, “Everybody Loves a Winner.” That same year, blues great Albert King recorded what came to be his signature tune, “Born Under a Bad Sign,” also written by Bell, which has since become one of the most-recorded blues songs of all-time. Among his other classic hits at Stax were “Any Other Way,” “Never Like This Before,” “A Tribute to a King” (William's personal tribute to Stax legend Otis Redding), “I Forgot to be Your Lover,” his internationally acclaimed duet with Judy Clay, “Private Number,” and the perennial Christmas music favorite, “Every Day Will Be Like a Holiday.” As a songwriter, William Bell's compositions have also been recorded by such diverse stars as Otis Redding, Eric Clapton, Billy Idol, Lou Rawls and Rod Stewart, among many others. In February 2017 William received a Grammy for his latest CD on STAX/Concord Records “This Is Where I Live” for Americana Album of the Year and performed on the live TV presentation with Gary Clark, Jr.! On April 14th, 2023, William Bell will release an Album titled “One Day Closer To Home” with 12 NEW songs. William Bell continues to be a major force in the music industry! Please welcome Singer - Songwriter - Entertainer – Record Producer- Business Man- the legendary William Bell to Interviewing the Legends … Legendary Soul Singer William Bell Releasing New Album ‘One Day Closer To Home' PURCHASE THE LATEST ALBUM BY WILLIAM BELL entitled ‘ONE DAY CLOSER TO HOME' Available at https://williambellmusic.com/shop-download-music “One Day Closer To Home” is a master class on how to put down the deepest kind of blues from a lifetime achiever. With tremendous groove, the song leans into his signature, soulful sound. Bell doesn't waste a note, word, or bar telling this story of trying to get back to freedom and he makes you believe every bit of it. His vocal delivery is heart-wrenching, loaded with hope and despair all at once. Both the instrumentation and the track's music video are austere and minimal, which keeps the focus on Bell, where it belongs. It's an outstanding song that will catch you and keep you.

The Black Spy Podcast Season 5, Episode 0010 Trevor Williams - Spookey & the creation of British Soul Part 1 This week Carlton explores the Black British soul music scene, with one of the guys who was lived it and made it happen - Trevor Williams. In addition to the music Trevor explains to Carlton how he ventured out to make a name for himself and his close school friends by breaking into the music scene of the mid 1970's when Black British soul bands were a rarity. However in this show, as is normally the case with Carlton, he digs beneath the surface to find out why Trevor took this route. What was home and school life like for the young Trevor? What challenges did Britain's Imperial children of colour undergo in what one called the empire's motherland, Britain? How did Trevor's Jamaican parents cope with the hostilities of the time? How did Trevor's parents obtain housing and work? How did Trevor's entrepreneurial mother achieve her goals? What did Trevor's hard working father think of Trevor's venture into the music industry. Was Trevor musically gifted? What barriers were put in Spookey's way as they created the band? And were the band aware of how cutthroat the industry was that they were entering? Consequently, we gain a feel of the trails and tribulations the band went through to climb the ladder to achieve some success in the music industry, as well as being one of the groups that lead the way for a home grown British version of that most American of musical genres Rhythm and Blues' - Soul Music.

After the so-called-but-not-really “death” of disco, dance music in the 1980s moved to its own beat. There was synthpop, electro, hi-NRG and house. But the scrappy genre that seemed to pull it all together was called freestyle—a breakbeat-tempo, Latin-flavored genre fortified with dizzying, proudly synthetic beats. Freestyle grew out of the clubs and streets of New York and Miami and briefly dominated '80s dance-pop. Freestyle's flagship artists were only medium-level stars: Shannon. Exposé. Lisa Lisa. Stevie B. Nu Shooz. Sweet Sensation. But these acts—most especially their yearning, floridly romantic, rhythmically hectic songs—punched above their weight on the charts and even affected the hits of superstars from Madonna to Duran Duran, Whitney Houston to Pet Shop Boys. Join Chris Molanphy as he defines the byways of this bespoke dance genre and traces how it bridged the disco era into the hiphop era. Podcast production by Kevin Bendis.

After the so-called-but-not-really “death” of disco, dance music in the 1980s moved to its own beat. There was synthpop, electro, hi-NRG and house. But the scrappy genre that seemed to pull it all together was called freestyle—a breakbeat-tempo, Latin-flavored genre fortified with dizzying, proudly synthetic beats. Freestyle grew out of the clubs and streets of New York and Miami and briefly dominated '80s dance-pop. Freestyle's flagship artists were only medium-level stars: Shannon. Exposé. Lisa Lisa. Stevie B. Nu Shooz. Sweet Sensation. But these acts—most especially their yearning, floridly romantic, rhythmically hectic songs—punched above their weight on the charts and even affected the hits of superstars from Madonna to Duran Duran, Whitney Houston to Pet Shop Boys. Join Chris Molanphy as he defines the byways of this bespoke dance genre and traces how it bridged the disco era into the hiphop era. Podcast production by Kevin Bendis.

Barnes (00:03):Please rate, review, and subscribe to the Pop Culture Show. I'm Barnes. That there is Leslie, and over there it's Cubby. Hey, what's going on gang? Leslie (00:12):Hello. Cubby (00:13):The band is back together for another exciting week, man. Barnes (00:16):We're back. Today, Charles Esten will be on the show today. A lot of people know him from Nashville, but most recently on one of the top five shows, called Outer Banks, on Netflix. He's the lead, he's the adult lead. There is a kid lead, or a couple of kid leads. You guys have to watch it, it's so good. Leslie (00:34):I definitely want to, especially because his character is so different from what he played on Nashville. Barnes (00:38):So Charles Esten is coming up, The Pop Culture, atthepopcultureshow.com is the hub. That's where you can listen anywhere you like to listen, like Apple Podcasts, iHeartRadio, Pandora, or where ever you get your podcasts. Hey, next week Ken Fuchs will be on the show. He is the director of every show on TV. The Bachelor, The Bachelorette, Shark Tank, Family Feud, Press Your Luck, To Tell the Truth, maybe not Press Your Luck... To Tell the Truth, I can't even keep up with... Leslie (01:11):It's unbelievable. Barnes (01:12):It's unbelievable. Cubby (01:12):It'll be fun to talk to him and ask him a lot of questions about how things have changed in a COVID world. Barnes (01:18):So many stories from behind the scenes. Just on Shark Tank alone, imagine dealing with all those personalities on a daily basis, for hours at a time. It's got to be very, very interesting. So we'll talk to Ken next week. Got a shout-out to give out. Christina Warren at Microsoft in Seattle, who listens to our podcast, thank you. She was tweeting us the other day. She's a long-time listener, Fram, of The Morning X. Leslie (01:44):Thank you, Christina. Barnes (01:45):Back to when she was, I think she said she was like 10. Leslie (01:48):Of course. Makes us feel old. Barnes (01:50):No kidding. Cubby (01:51):Christina doesn't know me, but she'll be happy to know that I use a Microsoft Surface every day for the recording of this podcast and for my radio show. So shout-out to Microsoft. Barnes (02:00):I think she might know you because she lived in New York City and she was a writer for Mashable. Cubby (02:06):Oh, very cool. Yeah. I know Mashable. Barnes (02:08):So I have a feeling she knows who Cubby is. Cubby (02:11):Well Christina, thank you for the love and support of The Pop Culture Show. Barnes (02:14):We have some other great news. We're trying every tactic to get you to listen. So now we're going to cut right to the bribe... We're going to pay you. Cubby (02:25):Yeah. Leslie (02:26):Wow. Barnes (02:27):We have money. This is called Pop Quiz and we will start this next week, because we have to tell you about it first. Cubby (02:34):So basically, starting next week you have a chance to win $50. We're going to ask you a question about The Pop Culture Show, a question from a past episode, correct? Barnes (02:42):Yeah, and it's not going to be easy. Cubby (02:43):Right. It's going to be kind of hard. Barnes (02:45):Not the past, but the week prior. Cubby (02:48):Right, the week prior. Exactly. And then if you od not get the question right, well that's a win for everybody else because that $50 rolls to next week, and it goes to $100. And then it goes to $150 if nobody gets it after that. And who knows, if this goes on for a year, we may be up to $25,000. Barnes (03:07):And you'll be in serious tax debt. It'll be fabulous. Cubby (03:10):And we'll have a problem. A big problem. Leslie (03:11):Wait a second, why don't we have Ken Fuchs, who's the director of Family Feud, just be the director of the pop quiz for The Pop Culture Show? Barnes (03:17):We're expanding, people. We're expanding. Leslie (03:19):It's so easy. Just go to the pinned post on Facebook and in the comment section just say, "Quiz me." Barnes (03:27):That's it. We're going to pick someone at random from whoever... We'll keep that as a running post. So this'll be an ongoing thing on the show until it's not anymore. Until we're broke and we have to start refinancing our house. Cubby (03:37):Right. Now this person is going to join us on the phone or on Zoom, and we're going to ask the question live. Barnes (03:44):Pop quiz will be 10 seconds. So we'll say, "Cubby, on last week's show..." Who was our guest? Oh, Oz. "On last week's show, who said they were going to quit drinking Diet Coke? Go." Cubby (03:55):Right. And we'd be like, "Barnes." Barnes (03:57):Boom. Win $50.And then if they say, "Cubby," bum, bum, bum... Then next week it's $100. Too easy. Leslie (04:04):Do we get winning music too, Barnes? Barnes (04:07):Oh, man. There's not enough time in the day. Cubby (04:09):No, I agree. We need some fanfare. Leslie (04:11):Yeah. Barnes (04:12):We will. We'll do it up. We'll do it up. Yup. That'll start next week, so please just go to that post and put, "Quiz me," if you want to be in the running to get quizzed. You guys have a good week? Cubby (04:22):I had an amazing week. I got to tell you... Guys, pumpkin spice is back, man. Barnes (04:28):At Starbucks? Cubby (04:29):Starbucks and Dunkin. It's the earliest they've ever started it. It started August 25th I believe for both. And I tell you, I'm a big fan. What about you guys, are you pumpkin spice people? Barnes (04:39):You sound like you've had four of them right now. Cubby (04:42):Hey man... Well that and the Adderall. But I'm tell you. Leslie (04:46):We learn something new about Cubby every week. Barnes (04:48):Jäger, Adderall, pumpkin spice. Leslie (04:52):Dang. Cubby (04:52):Leslie, are you a pumpkin spice fan? Because you strike me as a pumpkin spice fan. Leslie (04:55):I am, I'm a little concerned about the calories in there. Cubby (04:58):Oh, who cares? Calories don't count. Barnes (05:00):I just asked Cubby about a calorie count on Jäger this week because I'm concerned. Cubby (05:04):Yeah. It's like 100 a shot I believe. Barnes (05:05):Heather looked over at me, she was playing your story and goes, "Cubby's drinking again." I was like, "At what point... And now I've got other people telling me to lookout for my co-host." Cubby (05:14):Well you know what it is... Look, Barnes, you have two kids and when they were that young, you had to drink a little more to keep up with them. Barnes (05:22):Truth. Cubby (05:24):It's a long days, and daddy needs a little treat. Barnes (05:28):You do make a good point. Cubby (05:29):Yeah. Barnes (05:30):That's the highlight of your week, that pumpkin spice is back? Cubby (05:32):Pumpkin spice is back, fall is in the air, I love fall. I'm just happy as can be. How about you, Leslie? Leslie (05:40):I dropped my phone, my cell phone, in between the washer and dryer- Barnes (05:43):Good! Leslie (05:44):[crosstalk 00:05:44] no space there. [Lannie 00:05:47] was out of town... Not out of town, Lannie was not here, and I kept hearing my phone ring and so I'm in panic mode. I tried every utensil in the kitchen, from tongs to anything that would reach down. So finally I was like, what else in the house can I use? Barnes (06:04):I would have paid to have seen this. Leslie (06:05):So I found a hanger. So I get this hanger, now I've made it worse. Now, as I'm trying to get my cell phone in between the washer, dryer, I push my cell phone under the washing machine. Cubby (06:18):Oh, you made it worse. Leslie (06:19):Made it worse. So I shimmied... Which, by the way, it's kind of heavy. I shimmied the washer out a little bit, I climbed on the dryer, seriously climbed on the dryer, got some tongs from the kitchen, dropped myself onto the floor under the washing machine, and got my cell phone out. This went on for like an hour and a half. Cubby (06:43):Leslie has the best stories, man- Leslie (06:45):I do have the photos to prove it all too. Cubby (06:47):I thought you couldn't top the whole following a random truck story, but this might be up there- Barnes (06:52):It could be- Cubby (06:53):It's incredible. Barnes (06:53):I was only applauding because I thought, "Finally she's broken that damn Android and she's going to come into iPhone." Leslie (06:59):No. No. Cubby (06:59):By the way, Leslie, was this during business hours, so peak time where the phone was ringing like you said, and people needed you? Leslie (07:04):Yeah, it was peak time. It was peak time. I thought Lannie was going to call and get nervous. Barnes (07:08):Keith Urban's calling. Cubby (07:09):Where's Leslie? Barnes (07:10):Yeah. She's between the washer and the dryer. Cubby (07:13):That's great. Barnes (07:14):Nice. Leslie (07:15):What about you, Barnes? Barnes (07:17):I'll do it quickly, I got my flu shot. I think it's a first time ever. Leslie (07:21):Really? Barnes (07:21):I just happened to be at Public's and they were like, "Get a flu shot and we'll give you a $10 gift card." I'm a sucker for a gift card, hit me. So I got a flu shot. I busted a PI out in front of my house. Leslie (07:21):What? Barnes (07:34):So there was a private... I kept noticing this car, this car with super tinted windows, camped out in my space. And so I got my gun and went outside. I'm like, "Whoever this is..." Leslie (07:51):Was your gun visible? Barnes (07:52):It wasn't in my hand. I wasn't in full... But you don't know these days. Leslie (07:56):Okay. Okay. Barnes (07:56):What someone's going to do. And I thought the guy was dead. I thought the dude in the car was dead. So I'm looking through, and tint was so dark that I had to look through the front window. So I did old fake on the phone, walked past. And then I turned and looked in the car, and the dude didn't move. And I'm like, "Okay well he's dead." So, that was my first thought. I thought, "This dude is dead." So I started doing, you know when the cop comes up behind you on the side of a car? You can't see him, but he can see in? Cubby (08:26):Right. Barnes (08:26):So I started doing that, and I had one hand on my gun, because I didn't know what was going to happen. I thought, "Well if this guy's dead, maybe whoever killed him is behind him in the seat." I can't see in the car at all. So I get up there and I look in, and then all of a sudden the door cracks and I'm like, "Whoa, hey!" The dude gets out, and he goes, "Sorry. I'm a private investigator." I'm like, "Well, then I guess you're not investigating me, because I guess you wouldn't be so obvious." He said, "No." I said, "Well dude, half the block is already calling the police because you've been sitting here for 10 hours with your car running and we thought you were dead or you were up to something no good." He said he was on an insurance case. I was like, "So, you want to come on our podcast? We can talk about..." I'm not kidding. Cubby (09:15):Now I feel like a loser. The highlight of my week was pumpkin spice, and you guys had death and MacGruber going on over here with Leslie. Unreal. Barnes (09:26):I suck. Leslie (09:27):Is that a line you would ever do, being a PI? Barnes (09:29):Just for fun. It's all very mysterious. Leslie (09:33):So I have a question for both of you, Barnes, Cubby. Have you ever, in Hollywood, have you ever dated anyone 20 years younger or older than you? Barnes (09:43):No. Cubby (09:44):No. Not me. Leslie (09:45):Never ever? Well guess what- Barnes (09:46):Maybe in my dreams Leslie (09:47):Guess what? We have the world's first extreme age gap dating site. Barnes (09:52):This is a real thing? Leslie (09:53):20 Dating. So you could date someone 20 years younger or 20 years older. It's a new app- Cubby (09:53):What? Leslie (10:01):Yeah. It's pretty extreme. It's funny because when I saw this story, I thought of all the actors in Hollywood because most of the guys are dating people 20 years or more younger than them. Barnes (10:11):It's these dudes in their 70s that are dating 40 year olds. There are a lot of them. Leslie (10:17):Yeah. The site only matches users with people 20 years younger. Yeah. Barnes (10:17):Dennis Quaid. Leslie (10:17):Yeah. Barnes (10:21):I know he's one. Leslie (10:22):He just got married. Barnes (10:23):Harrison Ford is at least 20 over Calista Flockhart. But that's been a while. There's several of them. Cubby (10:28):And then Brad Pitt has a new chick. Leslie (10:30):New German model he's dating who's I would say 30 years younger than he is. Cubby (10:36):It's a shame nobody here is single on this show, because it would be fun to have somebody on to test it would. But I would never try it out- Barnes (10:43):You would go older, right Cubby? Cubby (10:44):Me? No. No. I'm 49, man. Barnes (10:48):That was just a joke. Leslie (10:50):By the way, the app is called Gaper. G-A-P-E-R. Barnes (10:54):The name is even bad. Leslie (10:57):It's unbelievable. Barnes (10:58):So what do you think is their biggest demographic that goes on there? Girls in their 20s trying to get a sugar daddy? Cubby (11:05):I think sugar daddy. That's exactly what I was going to say. It's young girls looking for the older guys. That's my thought. Leslie (11:09):You don't think it's older guys looking for the younger girls? Cubby (11:11):Well that too. I think it goes both ways. Leslie (11:12):Yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Barnes (11:12):So it does go both ways, because the older guys have the cash, which is what the younger girls want. Cubby (11:16):Correct. Barnes (11:17):They just have to give up the booty. I've heard about so many of these things where these girls get into... And I've actually met people in travel who are with someone that old. You get them drinking and they'll start telling stories. Literally will go sit in their room, the dudes, will go sit in their room all day, and these girls are out doing everything. And then you'll see him at dinner and the girl's just a little trophy hanging on his arm. Cubby (11:46):Oh, yeah. Barnes (11:46):It's the weirdest thing. Leslie (11:48):It's super weird. But they want a different lifestyle, potentially. Barnes (11:51):Correct. Cubby (11:52):And both are happy. I think the older dude is happy because he has the arm candy. And she's eating lobster and steak, it's a win-win. Leslie (11:59):Curious to see how popular though this app will be. Chadwick Boseman (12:04):Evacuate the city. Engage all defenses. Get this man a shield. [inaudible 00:12:12]. In my culture, death is not the end. Leslie (12:30):So sad that we learned of the passing of actor Chadwick Boseman. That was him bringing the Black Panther to life. I was shocked when I saw the news because no one knew that he was sick. He had stage 3 colon cancer that he got in 2016, and he never told anyone. So he had been battling with this for years. Barnes (12:47):I thought it was one of those internet memes. Cubby (12:49):Me too. Barnes (12:49):I thought it was one of those fake death high profile person that's so sad. Cubby (12:56):43. Leslie (12:57):And if you look at the movies that he made, he brought a lot of these heroes, these black heroes, to life. I don't know if you ever saw the Thurgood Marshall movie he did called Marshall, I watched last night because I had never seen it before. Get on Up, the James Brown movie. He brought James Brown to life. It was unbelievable. Have you ever seen him play James Brown? Cubby (13:16):Nope. I never saw that movie, but I saw the clips. You would think you're watching James Brown. Leslie (13:21):And then of course, baseball icon Jackie Robinson in the movie 42. Just incredible movies at a young, and for him to die so young at the age of 43, it's tragic. Barnes (13:32):Dude not only had skills but had just something inside him that's different than everybody else. He filmed a lot of those big movies while going chemo and going through treatment. Cubby (13:42):And nobody knew. And it's funny how he treated his fans like gold. He really was an icon both on film and real life. He just was a super good guy. Never met him, but I heard he was one of the nicest guys. Leslie (13:57):And the stories that are coming out from all the actors, as you know that he played with, especially Denzel Washington who had a statement the other day saying he was, "A gentle soul and a brilliant artist who will stay with us for eternity through his iconic performances over his short, yet illustrious career." Denzel, by the way, financed his studies at this theater program and the University of Oxford. Sad story. Are you guys following Nandi Bushell the little 10 year old phenom drummer? Barnes (14:28):She's awesome. Cubby (14:29):No. Barnes (14:29):How did she become a thing? She just one of these people that started playing the drums on YouTube and... Leslie (14:35):Yeah. I think she's got almost 100 thousand followers on YouTube. But she was inspired early on by seeing a drum kit of Ringo Starr's, but she's a huge Foo Fighter's fan. She's been on a lot of TV shows, she's already been on every morning show and Ellen. But anyway, she challenged Dave Grohl. I don't know if you ever saw her do her drum-off of Everlong, but she challenged Dave Grohl and Dave came back, I guess Dave got a lot of tweets- Barnes (15:02):He did. Leslie (15:02):Dave just accepted. Dave Grohl from the Foo Fighters accepted Nandi Bushell's challenge. Barnes (15:08):Check this clip out, this is him. He has just played Everlong, and I'm a drummer, I will tell you that playing a Foo Fighters song will take the breath out of you completely, like most of them. So that's why he sounds like he's breathing heavy, he just played Everlong. But here's his response, he did video back to her. Nandi Bushell (15:26):Hey everyone. Dave Grohl has just responded to my battle request. I can't wait to watch it. Let's see what he says. Dave Grohl (15:33):In the last week, I've gotten at least 100 texts from people all over the world saying, "This girl is challenging you to a drum-off. What are you going to do?" Now look, I've seen all your videos, I've seen you on TV. You're an incredible drummer. I'm really flattered that you've picked some of my songs to do for your videos and you've done it all perfectly. So today, I'm going to give you something you may not have heard before. This is a song called Dead End Friends from a band called Them Crooked Vultures, which is me playing drums, Josh Homme from Queens of the Stone Age playing guitar and singing, and John Paul Jones from Led Zeppelin playing bass. This is my response to your challenge. So now the ball is in your court. Barnes (16:29):Dave Grohl gets it on so many levels, it's unbelievable. He's so smart to play these games. Cubby (16:35):And she is going to be Cindy Blackman. Barnes (16:38):She's awesome. Cubby (16:39):You know who Cindy Blackman is, right? Leslie (16:40):No. Cubby (16:41):The drummer for Lenny Kravitz- Barnes (16:43):She looks like her as a kid. Leslie (16:44):She does look like her and it's funny that you say Lenny Kravitz because if you go on her YouTube page, Nandi is jamming with Lenny Kravitz at O2 Arena. Barnes (16:54):It's just wild hearing them, "Yeah, so here's the song. It's me on drums and John Paul Jones from Led Zeppelin on guitar. Have fun with that." Leslie (17:03):Anybody watch Bill and Ted Face the Music? Cubby (17:05):Last night. Leslie (17:06):You did? Cubby (17:07):I watched it because I loved the original. Leslie (17:10):It's really funny because originally they were going to have them as their older selves interacting with their younger selves, but they just went ahead and did I guess Keanu and Alex Winter, how do they look? Cubby (17:19):It actually looked pretty, they looked great. I really thought they looked great. Obviously they look older, but it was fun. I'm not going to lie, I was surprised. It's got I believe 78% on Rotten Tomatoes and I said to myself, "That's pretty good. I don't know if it's going to be that good." And actually, I was pleasantly surprised. Hour and a half, which is perfect, and it was fun. It really was fun. A lot of the older characters you kind of forgot about show up in the movie too. Barnes (17:43):I'm just all done with remakes. Cubby (17:46):Well, yeah. Remember we were laughing a couple weeks ago about all the reboots that Leslie had- Leslie (17:50):It's all there is. Cubby (17:51):All there is, yeah. Leslie (17:52):Original they said they were going to use CGI for George Carlin, but I guess they decided not to. But you liked it, what kind of rating would you give it? Cubby (18:02):B+. Barnes (18:02):Really? Cubby (18:03):I think that if you're my age, I'm 49 years old, so I was a kid when the first one came out, you'll like it for the nostalgia part. My wife, who's 10 years younger than me, she saw the original, didn't quite remember it that well, she was into the first 30 minutes and then I noticed she was on her phone a lot after that. Leslie (18:21):She was like, out. Barnes (18:21):Yeah. Cubby (18:22):And that's how you tell to me a good movie. If you're not looking at your phone a lot. Barnes (18:26):I yell at Heather for that. We'll start a new series- Cubby (18:29):Oh, I hate that. Barnes (18:30):And she'll be on her phone at the beginning, I'm like, "Listen, you got to put the phone down." Cubby (18:33):Especially when you know they're going to like it. I'm like, "Please, give it 10, 15 minutes." Leslie (18:37):The only time I'm on my phone is with live TV, or something that might be live, like a season finale... Because I want to see what people are saying on Twitter, the hashtags. Like Yellowstone last week, which, by the way, just killed it in the ratings. Apparently is the number one most watched cable telecast of the year. Barnes (18:53):Okay. Listen. I tried last night, I'm so sick of everybody getting up in my Yellowstone, "You got to watch, you got to watch, you got to watch." Leslie (19:00):Don't tell me you only watched one episode. Barnes (19:02):Hold on, we put it on and this is when I said to Heather, "Put your phone down, let's give this a chance." And then I was watching it and watching it and then like 30 minutes in, I just looked over, I said, "I don't know if it's just I'm not into this type of culture, or the surroundings and the whole thing. I'm just not into it." Leslie (19:23):That's so surprising because I think if you gave it a couple episodes... I'm so hooked on it. Barnes (19:28):Then that girl started getting undressed. And so that was about 40 minutes in. I'm like, "Okay, well hold on. Don't hang up yet. Don't hang up yet." But I still, it didn't resonate. I feel like it was a cowboy western Sopranos. Leslie (19:43):It's really good. I think Kevin Costner, some of his best work. I don't know, maybe try to give it a couple of more. Barnes (19:49):What are you watching, Fram. Give me something else. Leslie (19:52):Now I'm going back and watching old John Grishom movies, because the new movies just don't hold up for me. Barnes (19:58):You're not watching any TV shows? Leslie (20:00):No, not right now. Cubby (20:01):Right. It's kinds of quiet right now. Leslie (20:02):I just finished Yellowstone. What about you, Cubby? Cubby (20:04):I got to be honest with you, if we were doing this podcast a year ago, I'd be talking to you for an hour about shows I'm watching. But with the baby, and I'm not using this as an excuse, it's non-stop baby and usually when she's up and awake, we have some kind of baby show on. So my only down time is between 7:00 PM and 10:00 PM, and by that time I'm too tired. Yeah, I'm not watching too much TV. Barnes (20:25):We binged Indian Matchmaking. Leslie (20:28):I heard it's good. On Netflix. Barnes (20:30):Excellent. It was so good. It's a good character study. It was excellent and you binge it so fast. My only complaint is that the end of it, eight or 10 episodes, they don't really wrap everything up, they leave it hanging. But it was fascinating. And there's a thing called Bae Watch, have you seen that? B-A-E Watch? Leslie (20:47):Oh. A different Bay Watch. Barnes (20:49):Yeah. Don't waste your time. Netflix is touting it in that upper slider. Leslie (20:53):Mm-hmm (affirmative). Barnes (20:53):It's so bad. It's a U.K. dating show where they send these people to a resort for the weekend and they put cameras everywhere. So I think they're telling them they're on some other type of show, and then they put their family in the adjoining room, who have like 10 screens. Kind of Truman Show-ish, and they're dictating what happens. So they'll go and the director will do an interview and they say, "Ask him how much he likes, if he wants to go to the park later." Leslie (21:17):I won't like this. Cubby (21:21):Not good. Barnes (21:22):We started a second episode and they do the same thing. Cubby (21:25):Can I shout-out one movie, by the way? Have you seen The King of Staten Island? Barnes (21:27):Nope Leslie (21:28):Haven't watched it yet. Cubby (21:29):Surprise me. You'll like it. Do me a favor. It came out in June, it's still on-demand, Pete Davidson, based on- Barnes (21:36):I've heard that's good. Cubby (21:36):His real life story. It's surprisingly good. My wife and I were like, "Wow." Leslie (21:40):Can I tell you why I haven't watched it yet? There's been so much stuff about him, that I'm just like, "Ah..." Barnes (21:45):It's up and down. Cubby (21:46):Yeah, I hear you. Leslie (21:46):You know what I mean? Cubby (21:47):Yeah. Yeah. Leslie (21:48):I don't know. Barnes (21:49):But the best TV I'll leave you with for the week, Love Island. They're nailing it. It's on every night- Cubby (21:55):That's on CBS, right? I saw it last night. Barnes (21:57):Yeah. The biggest nights, for me, are Big Brother and Love Island on the same night. Leslie (22:00):I'm so not into any of those shows- Cubby (22:02):Neither am I- Leslie (22:02):I'm so more into drama. Barnes (22:04):Love Island- Cubby (22:04):I was channel surfing and I saw Love Island and I thought of you, Barnes. I always think of you. Barnes (22:08):It's number one. Cubby (22:10):Because there's nothing else on. Barnes (22:11):No, there's a lot of things on. I'm telling you, they do great casting and it's good. Leslie (22:17):Give me 10 episodes of Shark Tank back to back. So now couple of Hollywood things, because we keep talking about Hollywood can't reinvent itself. The new trailer for Batman with Robert Pattenson, what do you think about him as Batman? He was a vampire. Barnes (22:34):Look-wise, yeah. I haven't seen any clips. Leslie (22:37):I think it might be really good. Cubby (22:38):Look-wise, it makes sense. But I want to see it. Leslie (22:41):And they've been talking about this for years, about a new Mad Max and now the rumor is it could be Chris Hemsworth. Barnes (22:46):I could see that. Leslie (22:47):I don't mind that. I do not mind that one bit. Now there's a rumor that Johnny Depp is asking for, you ready for this? $50 million for Pirates of the Caribbean. Which would be the 6th one. Cubby (23:00):Wow. Do you know how well that movie would have to do just to pay him? Leslie (23:03):I mean seriously. Cubby (23:05):I mean serious, that's crazy. Leslie (23:06):It would be half, right? Cubby (23:07):Yeah. It would be. Leslie (23:08):And finally, Katie Perry and Orlando Bloom have a little baby. I thought the name was cute, Daisy Dove Bloom. Cubby (23:16):And how good is her timing that her new album came out? Barnes (23:19):She dropped a baby and an album in the same week. Cubby (23:23):Well done, Katie. Barnes (23:23):That rolls nicely into... This was one of the biggest new music weeks that I have seen in a long time. I'm going to run through a couple of key ones, just so you know that they exist. One of them, of course, is Katie Perry. Katie Perry (23:37):(singing) Barnes (23:48):Her team knows how to produce a hit, man. They just crank these out and they sound excellent sonically, every time. Cubby (23:54):Yeah. I agree. Barnes (23:55):Smashing Pumpkins were teasing people on their webpage. They had a countdown, a mysterious countdown going on, no one knew what it was. Well now we know, it's a new album coming but they dropped two songs. Here's one of them. Smashing Pumpkins (24:06):(singing) Barnes (24:06):That one's called Seer. Leslie (24:06):It's such a undeniable voice. You always know it's Billy Corgan. Barnes (24:23):But he looks like he's right out of My Three Sons, or what was the... The Munsters. He looks like straight out of the Munsters in this video. It's a performance video, so it's supposed to be- Leslie (24:32):I need to look and see who's in the band now. Barnes (24:34):Everyone but Darcy. Here's the second one they did, it's called The Color of Love. The guy knows how to put a song together. Smashing Pumpkins (24:41):(singing) Barnes (24:53):So it's coming out in a couple of months. That's a thing now, Leslie, right? Everyone's putting out their music so early. Leslie (24:57):Mm-hmm (affirmative). They're releasing tracks every week, just bonus tracks from the album. And seriously with having the band back together, that's pretty huge for The Pumpkins. Barnes (25:06):Here's a new one, Calvin Harris and the Weekend, it's called Over Now. Calvin Harris, The Weeknd (25:09):(singing) Leslie (25:16):I love The Weekend. Barnes (25:17):I think all these songs sound the same. Cubby (25:22):Well that's you showing your age. Barnes (25:24):I know. Cubby (25:26):We're officially that age now, we're like, "What is it with music these days?" We're doing what our parents would do. Barnes (25:31):But in that genre. I feel like it's just a big baseline and Auto-Tuning. That's just me. Cubby (25:37):No, I'm with you. I agree. But that's just where music is right now. Barnes (25:40):Well again, I'm pointing only to that genre. This guy is like the singer's singer, Chris Stapleton. Everyone that is a serious singer, this is his new one called Starting Over. Chris Stapleton (26:02):(singing) Barnes (26:02):Would call him country, Fram, or would you call him just... Leslie (26:12):Yeah, he's country. He's one of the best song writers in town, too. He's incredible. Barnes (26:16):Yeah. Everyone loves that guy. Keith Urban came out with a flying one. Keith Urban (26:29):(singing) Barnes (26:33):One thing about Keith Urban people don't know, he can shred the guitar like more... He can blow away some of the best rock guitarists. Leslie (26:40):One of the best guitar players ever. Barnes (26:42):Yeah. Leslie (26:43):He does a lot of rock songs too in concert, he'll do Zeppelin and stuff. Barnes (26:45):He can shred, shred. Okay, and the last one is... This band put this together in 1986 and never released it, and now they've got this box set coming out. Tell me if you can name the band. Tears for Fears (26:58):(singing) Barnes (27:12):Cubby? Cubby (27:13):Wow. Wow. No, I'm sitting here thinking... Barnes (27:16):Heather guessed Wham. I said, "Well that would be good, but yeah, no." Cubby (27:20):Yeah. No George Michael. Leslie (27:20):Who is it? Cubby (27:22):Who is that? I really don't know. Barnes (27:23):Everybody Wants to Rule the World. Cubby (27:25):Tears for Fears. Leslie (27:27):Really? Barnes (27:27):Yeah. Cubby (27:27):Dammit. Barnes (27:28):They've got a huge box set coming soon. Tony! Toni! Tone! (27:32):It's amazing, sincerely, it's unbelievable. 150 years people have been looking for that goddamn gold. None of them could find it, you found it. Charles Esten (27:42):Here's the thing son, finding it? That's where your fun ends. That's where all your problems begin. Barnes (27:49):Ladies and gentleman, our guest today is Charles Esten. That was him doing his acting thing in Netflix powerhouse, Outer Banks. Hey, Charles. Charles Esten (27:59):Hello. Good to speak with you guys. Cubby (28:02):Great to have you here, man. Leslie (28:02):So excited. Cubby (28:04):So excited to have you. And can I start from the very beginning? Because I know you've done a million things, and we're going to get to all the things, but it all started with a game show. I'm a big game show buff, you were on Sale of the Century back in the late 80s? Leslie (28:19):What? Charles Esten (28:20):I absolutely was. Let me first start by saying, "Hi," to my friend Leslie, because I love Leslie Fram so much. We got to know each other through Nashville, she was there on my greatest day ever when we announced that we got that CMT pickup on stage. Hi, Leslie. Leslie (28:36):So good to talk to you. I can't wait to get caught up today. Charles Esten (28:38):Oh, I can't either. Now going back to that game show, that game show was so crucial, so pivotal to everything else it's kind of scary. I went to college and over the summers I would do construction and try to raise a little money. I didn't know what I wanted to do yet, I had a couple friends that went out to LA and were making it work, so I thought maybe I'll try it. I went out there in I guess September, and I think I was out there maybe a month, and I was already flat broke. I was sleeping on a mattress with all my clothes in a milk crate in a house full of stunt men. I didn't have enough money to stay, and I didn't have enough money to go home. Back then there was no internet, I was just flipping through something called the recycler in the local newspaper, and they had all these game shows that were auditioning.I've been a TV buff my whole life, I grew up addicted to it. So I thought, "I'll do that." But I thought to myself, "I don't want to do one that's pure chance, like Wheel of Fortune, where you're just bankrupt on a roll of a wheel. I don't want to do one like Win, Lose, or Draw, or Pyramid where you're depending on some idiot celebrity to help you win your money." And I didn't want to be on Jeopardy because I thought, "I don't think I'm quite... I might win one Jeopardy, but I won't do well enough to make some money." So I found a show called Sale of the Century. I loved it. It was like Jeopardy but the questions weren't as hard, but you had to be fast. You had to be really fast. I guess I was pretty fast because five days later, I walked away with $34,000 in cash and prizes, as they say. That was almost like God saying, "You can stay." Barnes (30:23):What was the tax on that? Charles Esten (30:26):Yeah, it was brutal. It absolutely was brutal. Cubby (30:32):But that's where the bug began, right here. From a game show, to where you are right now. Charles Esten (30:37):Well it certainly is the thing that made it all possible. By the way, it wasn't just the fact that I had to pay taxes, I had to sell all this stuff because some of it was cash, but most of it was these strange prizes like a child's bed shaped like a car, or a microwave. So I had to go on the recycler, the classifieds, and sell these things. I had these two massive cardboard boxes full of redwood that ultimately you would assemble into a sauna. I had to drive it out to some dude in Ventura and he wrote me like an $800-something check, and that was the first steak meal I had in Hollywood. Leslie (31:16):You have conquered so many mediums, from the big screen, television, you're a very successful songwriter and musician. In the very early days though, growing up, what did you see your career to be? Did you want to be an actor or did you want to be a musician? Or did you want to be both? Charles Esten (31:32):Well I was an inveterate showoff always. So it was one or the other. I didn't do a whole lot of acting. If I go way back, my family tells this story that when I was just a little guy, my dad said, "What do you want to be when you grow up?" And I think he was expecting, "Fireman," "Astronaut," and I said, "A clown." And by the way, this was long before clowns were creepy. They were just sort of fun and [crosstalk 00:31:57]. There was a day where clowns were actually beloved. In any event, he goes, "Why do you want to be a clown?" And I said, "Because I want to make people laugh."I think it was this super simple answer, but at the time, if I go back and if I'm in the therapist couch, there were some times where it wasn't that funny around my house. And so I always was the guy that wanted everybody, "Hey, everybody. Watch me do this. Let's all laugh, let's all smile. Let's not go down that road, for now." So there was a whole lot of that. But also, later I also come to understand what a song can do, if I could play a song on a piano or a guitar, that somebody might... If it was a funny song, they'd laugh, or if it was something more sentimental, it might move them in some way.I guess the through line, eventually I didn't really do serious acting until I went to LA, but the through line through all of that I think I've come to find is, I want to make somebody feel something. And that's it. I want them to either laugh at Who's Line is it Anyway, or The Office, or be afraid of something from Outer Banks, or be moved and sad or heart warmed by something Nashville. That's definitely the through line, that's sort of what I get off on, is bringing an emotion to somebody that they didn't have. Barnes (33:12):Well, not that Outer Banks isn't good, but you can send a big thank you to COVID-19, because you had a captive audience that was latching on great content, and I think that gave it the booster that it needed to become one of the top shows on Netflix. Charles Esten (33:29):Well, I couldn't really argue with you there. I think we would have had the younger audience, I think that would have been there, just by the nature of how great this young cast is. But I think you're right, I think all the families locked down. Tiger King had had it's day, so we knocked them off it's throne and Outer Banks took over. Yeah. Not that you would ever wish it on anything, but it was the timing that made this where families would sit around and watch this show. I think some of the older folks are going, "I think I like this more than I'm supposed to or thought I would." Barnes (34:03):You guys, everyone who hasn't watched it, do yourself a favor and spend those 10 hours watching it. I think you're going to enjoy it and Ward Cameron, you want to talk about a dick, Cubby. I'm just saying. Charles Esten (34:17):Spoiler alert. Barnes (34:18):Takes one to know one, right? Leslie (34:22):You were on this cultural phenomenon, which was Nashville the TV show, from ABC. I was lucky enough to work with you when we had it on CMT, but it was such a worldwide hit, and it wasn't just a TV show. You were part of these amazing musical tours, you and some of the cast members, selling out Royal Albert Hall, and O2 in London, and all of the soundtracks that came out. This wasn't just a regular show. What you guys did for the city of Nashville, putting it on the map, putting a lot of these venues on the map, literally saving the Bluebird Café. What was it like being in that moment? Charles Esten (35:03):Oh, Leslie. That job for me, that role of Deacon, it was such... They say, "My cup runs over," and sometimes you think of that, almost like a cup of coffee that has a little too much in it. This is more just like a cup under a waterfall because it was everything I had ever wanted. Look, when I got this, I was 46 and I had been in Hollywood a long time, and I've had a career that I was very happy with. I'd been on The Office, and Who's Line is it Anyway, a bunch of shows that you've heard of, but I'd never found a real home. I was always the guest star, the eight episode arc. So the fact that it came together on something of such quality, and such heart... And the music on top of that, because I was a singer, songwriter long before I was an actor. And so it's really sort of hard for me to square how wonderful that was. All I know is I loved every single moment of it.I feel very grateful for those things what we were able to... Look, all we did was turn a light on Nashville and on country music. If it hadn't been as wonderful as it is, it wouldn't have meant much. But thanks to Callie Khouri and her wonderful writing and all the great music that came out, whether it was T Bone Burnett, or Buddy Miller, or Tim Lauer. It was really something. By the way, that music is what's really cool about it because any other show, you can go back and binge Nashville like you can go back and binge anything else. But it has this body of music that I think stands up so strongly. You were talking about the international appeal, that still is a thing. Because of Nashville, I'm able to go over and be a part of festivals overseas. I, myself, got to go play the Royal Albert Hall. I swear to you, I never thought that was possible.I think there was a few things I had maybe let go, when you start getting to 42 and 43. And then at 46, this thing kicks in and all these things that I had let go came rushing back into my life. So I consider myself incredibly blessed and I'm incredibly grateful. I'm really actually very grateful to CMT because not only did we get two more seasons because of CMT, but in a real way, we sort of got to finish it, close it down, and it got to slow down a little bit. Part of the ABC-ness of it all was that intense, high energy, this wilder, more dramatic, people falling off roofs, all those things. And we could do that with the best of them, but I always thought our strongest moments were those quiet bluebird moments, those father-daughter moments, those two people in love moments, those human moments. And I think that's what draws everybody to the show. Anybody that ever got on the Nashville train never got off. I'm incredibly grateful for that. Cubby (38:03):In the current pandemic that we're just continuing to go through, it feels like it's never going to end, how is that affecting taping, for what you're doing right now? What's the protocol for taping TV shows? Charles Esten (38:16):Well we're in pre-production right now, I don't start until Monday and I can tell you that it is massive, it's a massive undertaking. You know shooting a show is already a massive undertaking, but what they're doing on top of it is extremely impressive. It's just, I can tell, a group of people, and this includes the actors guilds and Netflix and all our production that said, "This I important. We want to do this. But we want to do it safely." It's like the space program. There's so many protocols, everybody is wearing the masks. Like just to go get a wardrobe fitting today, the costume designer and the assistants have on their mask and their shield in front of their mask, and I have on a mask, and I've had my temperature taken at the door and I've answered questions. We're getting tested very often. So it's sort of like man, if we can pull this off, it will really be something. More and more I'm starting to believe that we can, just by seeing how seriously they're taking it, but they're also... They're taking it seriously so that we can do it.From what I hear also, when we're shooting it's going to be in pods, for lack of a better word. Usually everybody's all at work at one time in one place. I think this is going to be the actor and the directors come onto the set, figure out what they're going to do, then they exit the set. Now here comes lighting and camera, and they're going to do what they do. Then they're going to exit the set. Now here comes set decoration. So it is wildly intense and stringent. But with a whole lot of people saying, "Yeah. We're going to do it because we care about this and we want everybody to be safe." This will be a wonderful thing, put us in your prayers, if we can get away with this and create a season two of Outer Banks, the scripts I've read are fantastic and I think it's looking good. So we're just going to be all as careful as we can and make something as great as we can. Barnes (40:16):But can there be anything worse than being in that part of the country, at this time of the year, with a mask on your face? No. Charles Esten (40:24):We haven't shot outdoors yet, so I know what you're saying but I'm telling you, I'm that guy that's like, "Oh my gosh, what are we doing here." But when you care about something, and when you care about someone, I care about the show, I care about making it happen. Yeah. We're going to do it. We're going to make it work somehow, and I'm grateful that we get a chance to. Barnes (40:46):Well your credits are pages and pages and pages long... Party of Five, The Office, E.R.- Charles Esten (40:52):You're calling me old is what you- Barnes (40:54):[crosstalk 00:40:54] No, we're calling you successful. But all these shows, I would like to hear something in all of these auditions, somewhere in there, give me a story. And I'm not talking about, I doubt you're probably a casting couch candidate in the reverse world... Charles Esten (41:12):Never had that, no. Barnes (41:13):Give me something from an audition that stuck with you forever. Charles Esten (41:18):Well... Boy oh boy. There's been so many, and I've been really fortunate on so many of them. Probably the best one besides Nashville that I got was The Office, and the real quick story on that, and then I'll tell you one I didn't get... The Office was that I had known Rainn Wilson for a number of years because he and I shot a pilot where we played androids who solved crimes and spent maybe 30% of the show naked. So, I go to this audition and they say, "We understand you're friends with Rainn." And I go, "That is true." I go, "Did he tell you how we met?" And they go, "No." And I go, "Yeah, I bet he didn't." And then I described the show to them and I said, "Here's the thing. You give me this job, I show up day one with a DVD of that pilot." I wasn't even to my car yet and my phone was ringing, and I had the job. That's how I got on The Office. Leslie (42:17):That's a good one. Charles Esten (42:20):That pilot never aired, but it got me on The Office. But probably one of the hardest ones, every long career has your biggest disappointments and for me... I'm sure you remember that great, great mini series, Band of Brothers, HBO. Barnes (42:37):Oh yeah. Charles Esten (42:39):Yeah. It was wonderful. Tom Hanks producing on that and man, so many great actors ended up on that, great young actors playing these soldiers in World War II. So I went through all the auditions, I had a bunch of them, first you're just auditioning for the casting director, maybe she wants to see again. Now they bring in a producer, now you go back again for producers again. I swear, this many. And then I go back, and there's Tom Hanks in the room and I read with Tom Hanks. Barnes (43:09):Whoa. Charles Esten (43:10):And it goes really well. And I get a phone call later that night to go, "Well, it went really well. They really like you. They just want you to come back tomorrow for one more." And I'm like, "Oh my gosh. What do I got to do? This is killing me. I want it so bad." I wanted it so bad, you guys. And I'm thinking if Tom Hanks likes you, who needs to see you? Well I got my answer the next day when I walked in the room, and without being aware or ready for it at all, there's Tom Hanks in one chair and Steven Spielberg in the other. Barnes (43:38):Oh! Cubby (43:38):Oh, wow. Charles Esten (43:41):And that would have been enough, but basically Steven Spielberg stands up, I shake hands, and he's got a camcorder in his hand, back when that was a thing. So I'm acting out these scenes in a conference room, hiding behind a desk pretending I'm holding a rifle, then crawling across the floor, with Steven Spielberg's camcorder three feet from my face, and he's crawling with me. And I don't even know how I did it, I don't know how I crawled, I just wanted to stop at every second and go, "I really like Jaws," where do you even begin? I don't know where you begin, but I don't know what my face looked like, but inside I was imploding. And in any event, later that night or the next day, I found out that I didn't get it. Barnes (44:27):Oh. Charles Esten (44:27):And man, that one was brutal because it was such an incredible production, and on top of that, no matter what you do, it's hard not to walk away with the feeling that Steven Spielberg doesn't think I'm a good actor. Barnes (44:41):Who got it? Charles Esten (44:42):You know what? I swear to you, I couldn't tell you right now. I watched like half hour of Band of Brothers, I'm like, "I'm out. I don't care anymore." If I went back, I could find it. Leslie (44:53):I think Damian Lewis was in that show. Barnes (44:56):What was the character? Charles Esten (44:57):I know. I think it may have been him. I think it might have been that. Barnes (45:01):[Tommy's 00:45:01] going to look it up. What was the character? Charles Esten (45:03):I think it was Winter. Barnes (45:06):Winter? Charles Esten (45:07):I think that was... Colonel Winter or maybe... I think that's what it was. Barnes (45:13):We got to hear this. You were crawling around the floor? Charles Esten (45:18):I don't know what's funny about it, you guys are trying to look it up to rub my nose in this, "I'll tell you who got that job, Chip." Leslie (45:18):Yeah. Thanks a lot. Barnes (45:18):Well I think it's worked out okay for you. Charles Esten (45:29):Yeah, it took another 20 years, but I got there in the end. I tell you a sweet ending to that is that my wife, we've been together since college, so she was there, she's seen every step in the road, and I don't think I cried about it or whined too much but she saw how hard it was hitting me, in a way that most things don't. I'm a pretty easygoing guy. I never expected to get very job I read for, and I said, "I'm in this for the long haul," and no one's going to stop me because I'm not going to quit.But she could see how much this one was hurting me, and in the end, I found on my pillow a letter, a handwritten letter in an envelope basically saying, "I know how much this hurts, but you have to see it for what it is. This is a major step in your career. This is something that shows that you belong here." Just the sweetest letter about, "Your show is coming, I have no doubt you will get there."And when we were moving from LA to Nashville, I'm going through my desk and piling all my stuff, and I sit down in that chair, same chair I read it back in when I got it years earlier, 11 years earlier I think, and I unfold this letter saying, "Someday you'll get your show," and here we are packing up to go to Nashville to do my show." So, that was kind of a good button to put on the end of that. But yeah, I think it was Damian Lewis' role. Cubby (46:54):Damian Lewis. Got you. Yup. Yup. Yup. There it is. Barnes (46:57):Oh, so you know it was Damian Lewis? Charles Esten (46:59):I'm looking at it now with you, I have IMBD too. Barnes (47:03):[crosstalk 00:47:03]. You lost out to an incredible actor, at least you can feel good about that. Charles Esten (47:09):Believe me, I know. That guy's as good as it gets, so absolutely. Barnes (47:11):So looking at the cast, Collin Hanks got a role. I'd go back with nepotism complaints right now and just get that all unearthed. Charles Esten (47:22):Can you imagine if he got my role, that would have hurt a little more, I'm sure. Leslie (47:27):I'm not sure if Barnes and Cubby know this or not, but Charles Esten is in the Guinness Book of World Records. Did you guys- Barnes (47:34):For what? Leslie (47:35):You didn't realize? Cubby (47:36):I read that too. I read that too. Leslie (47:38):And I was a part of this, it was an amazing time. Charles, do you want to tell them about every single Friday that you did for what, 54 weeks? Charles Esten (47:47):Yeah. It was this amazing thing... It comes down to this, Leslie, while I was doing the show Nashville, I knew that this was only going to last so long and I don't ever like to leave a situation feeling like I left anything undone, like I left anything on the table, and here I am in Music City and I'm surrounded by these great songwriters, which has always been my deepest passion, and these great musicians and producers so I thought, "Am I going to do an EP? Or am I going to do an album?" And every time it kept coming around to that, my music at that time had not focused quite down on exactly who I was, but I had a whole bunch of singles, and they were all over the place, and I just didn't know if they held together as one. To me, and album should be an album for a reason. Especially in the years that we're in now, singles are singles. You can release them when you want.So I decided what I wanted to do, I figured everybody was used to watching me once a week and I thought, "Maybe they'll be happy to hear me once a week," so I went out and held my phone up and did a selfie video where I promised to release a brand new single every week, I think I said, "Until it's stupid." And it might have already been, but I don't know because who does that? Nobody does this. Leslie knows, you don't step on your own single, you give it time, you give it love. Well this was not that. This was me wanting to be as creative as I could. I tend to succumb to paralysis of analysis an awful lot. So this is me busing through that and just going for it. And I have to say, it was a shock to me when 54 weeks later, I had 54 singles. Leslie (49:31):Unbelievable. Barnes (49:32):That's unreal. Were you writing them as you went? Charles Esten (49:36):There was all kind of stages of them. I had some already, others I wrote as I went. Some I would get out of order, some jumped to the front of the line. It was the ones that made me just the most excited. Also I had some ideas, like where they would go. One would follow the next. I didn't want them to step on each other in terms of them being too similar. Almost like a long, long album. But also, if you ever go and look at that, the other thing is we had to... Usually if you do an album, the artwork is the artwork. We had to do a new artwork for every single for every week. So between all that, it was just an insane amount of work but it was the absolute definition of a labor of love. Barnes (50:17):That's unbelievable. Cubby (50:18):Did you know you were setting a record at the time? Or did you just keep going? Charles Esten (50:21):Oh, no. I had no idea. I didn't know. No, I didn't. I just kept going, and I kept going. Do I have one? Yeah. I just promised myself I was not going to... What I didn't want was to do one if I didn't have one. Like here's a song I don't like, but I need one, I'll do that one. So I never did that. And when I go back and listen to them, I have to tell you, I'm proud. There's not one that I was sort of like ugh, I should have stopped there. I love them all. Barnes (50:51):I want to play a clip of your latest single. You've got an amazing voice, and I have to admit, I didn't know you were a singer. Leslie told me that you... I knew you as an actor, not as a singer. Usually you hear, "Oh, I'll listen to it," and you're like, "Okay, here we go. An actor singing. Okay. Hit play." But actually- Leslie (51:07):He's amazing. Barnes (51:08):You know what you're doing. Leslie (51:09):And he's a great songwriter too. Barnes (51:11):Here's a quick clip of his latest song called Sweet Summer Saturday Night Charles Esten (51:31):(singing) Barnes (51:32):How much did Michelob Light pay for that? Charles Esten (51:38):Yeah. Not much. It was hard as hell to find a Michelob Light. They have that new version of Michelob Light, what's it called now? Oh, I forget, but it's something slightly different. So I wanted a bottle for the cover, and man, that was hard to find. But no, they have not paid a cent yet. That's free to them. Cubby (51:55):Do you like Michelob Light, or did it just rhyme? Charles Esten (51:58):No, it was what we would have been drinking back then. Cubby (52:03):Oh, got you. Charles Esten (52:04):Yeah. Michelob Light was of that era. It's not like a thing though. But it does have great syllables, Michelob Light. Drinking a Coors Light doesn't quite sing the same way. Barnes (52:15):Well Charles, thank you for coming on. Look up Charles Esten where ever you get your music, where ever that shall be. And also, you've got... When is Outer Banks coming back? I know you're just starting to film it, but when is it slated to return? Charles Esten (52:26):I actually don't know that. I should find that out. I'm not even sure they know actually, but we are just at the beginning of a very long road, we have 10 episodes we're going to shoot here. We're shooting here, I'm in Charleston, South Carolina right now and we're going to actually do some shooting in the Bahamas. Barnes (52:42):Really? Leslie (52:43):Nice. Charles Esten (52:43):Which is where the gold went. So this is going to be good. I cannot complain. Barnes (52:47):He's sitting on the Royal Merchant, everybody. Well Charles, thank you very much. I cannot wait for the next season to come out. We are total fans. Leslie (52:54):Cannot thank you enough. Love to the family, and thank you. Charles Esten (52:57):Aw, thank you so much. Leslie, real quickly before we leave here, I hear them call you Fram, I want to know if I can do that? Leslie (53:03):Oh, any time. Charles Esten (53:05):I've called you Leslie, am I close enough? I can call you Fram? Leslie (53:07):Yes. That's all Barnes calls me. Charles Esten (53:09):Yeah, I've noticed that. Barnes (53:11):One syllable. It's just easier. Charles Esten (53:14):It's way easier. I'm honored to be on the Fram tram. Thank you. Leslie (53:17):Thanks, Charles. Charles Esten (53:19):Thanks, Fram. Leslie (53:20):Thank you. Charles Esten (53:21):Appreciate you guys so much. Barnes (53:22):We haven't done Barnes Bitches in a while, and I had a moment this week that made me get excited about doing this segment again. My segment, chill with the exotic grocery lists please. If I'm going to the store and I could be you, so I'm just saying, if we, people, are going to the store and your significant other or whoever says, "Oh, you're going to the store?" And then you're already in motion and they say, "I have a few things on my list." And you're like, "Okay. Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. It can't be anything exotic." My wife asked me to bring back skim milk and there is no skim milk anymore. Leslie (54:03):What? There's not? Barnes (54:04):So I was there for five flipping minutes staring at each of the milks, trying to find skim, I didn't see skim. Cubby (54:10):Are you sure? Barnes (54:13):I looked at every brand, I went down the whole... So much so I needed to go home and get a jacket, I was in that aisle so much. But don't ask... Maybe there's skim milk somewhere, but my Public's did not have it. And also she asked me to get celery salt. I'm like, "Whoa!" I don't know because when you got to the store, you know where your stuff is. I get the same stuff every time, bananas, non-exotics, easy things. Leslie (54:38):You can't go to the condiment section and get her some celery seed or celery salt? Barnes (54:42):Celery salt. I'm like, "What the hell is celery salt." But then they start playing, "Oh, get un-sour cream." What the hell is that? But seriously, these are exotic things. Leslie (54:52):Now wait a second, isn't- Cubby (54:53):Look, I love Heather, why isn't she doing the shopping? Barnes (54:56):We both do the shopping. I'm just saying, you got to chill with exotics. If you're sending your people to get stuff, don't come out of left field. Don't ask for, "Get seedless strawberries," what the hell? Leslie (55:09):I have to tell you, I talk to Heather about this and your, "Exotics," I mean, Barnes... Come on. Barnes (55:14):Which were what? What did she say? Leslie (55:16):So what. Because listen, if you have a recipe and it calls for celery seeds or celery salt, it's a little extra time, Barnes. Barnes (55:24):Right, but I- Cubby (55:25):I have this guy in China who's sending me seeds all the time. Barnes (55:29):That's a whole other conversation. Cubby (55:30):They're great. Barnes (55:31):It's a whole other thing. But, "Can you pick up some organic Pop Tarts?" Leslie (55:37):So you're calling this, "Exotics?" Barnes (55:40):An exotic is variable. If you're used to going to the store and you pick up your bananas, your whatever, and no Diet Coke anymore, because Dr. Oz yelled at me. I haven't had one since then. Cubby (55:50):Really? Barnes (55:50):Yup. I haven't had one. I'm on a roll. Two weeks. Leslie (55:52):I'm proud of you. Barnes (55:53):Fat free humus. Pick up some fat free humus, Cubby. If you're asking someone to go exotic for you at the grocery store, you're a big inconvenience, that's all. Leslie (56:02):Wow. Exotic. Cubby (56:03):Real quick and I'll let this go here, what about when you're behind somebody... You strike me as somebody, Barnes, that will be upset if you're behind somebody in Starbucks who's doing the elaborate order. Barnes (56:11):No, that doesn't bother me because that's different. That's them doing their order. Cubby (56:16):But it's holding you up. Barnes (56:17):It'd be if you, Cubby, ask me, "Get me a duh-duh-duh, duh-duh-duh, duh-duh-duh latte with duh-duh-duh, duh-duh-duh, duh-duh-duh." If someone says, "Do you want a burger, I'm going to where ever," you can't come out with, "Yeah. So I want one patty with cheese on it, one without cheese..." You have this long exotic list, then you're on your own. Then you go, "Nah. I'm out." You do it. Cubby (56:37):You're like a shark. I'm out. And for that, I'm out. Barnes (56:39):No, you go, you go. So that's it. Think about it. Be sensitive when you're send your people to the store. Leslie (56:46):This is a Barnes Bitch. Unbelievable. Intro (56:48):This is Cubby's pop culture throwback, a rewind into the volt of music, movies, and moments. Cubby (57:00):I thought it would be fun to go back to the first week of September in 1990. It was big year for me. I was about to leave my hometown to Virginia Beach, Virginia to do radio in Houston and the station I was working for, Leslie, you remember this, WGH in Norfolk/Virginia Beach- Leslie (57:18):Mm-hmm (affirmative). Cubby (57:18):They made the flip from top 40 to country and I wasn't very happy about that, and so I went ahead and moved to Houston. So all these songs I remember vividly. September 1st, 1990, the number one song on the pop charts this week, it was Sweet Sensation, If Wishes Came True. Sweet Sensation (57:38):(singing) Cubby (57:39):I know it's a cheesy pop song, Barnes, but do you remember it? Barnes (57:42):I don't. Cubby (57:43):Leslie? Leslie (57:43):I do not remember this at all. Cubby (57:44):This was a total Power 99, before 99X, Power 99. Leslie (57:44):Wow, I don't remember that. Cubby (57:51):The number one song on the R&B charts this week was Tony! Toni! Tone! Feels Good. Tony! Toni! Tone! (58:01):(singing) Cubby (58:04):1990 a big year for the whole new jack swing sound. On the country charts, Clint Black had a number one song, a song called Killin' Time. Clint Black (58:14):(singing) Cubby (58:14):Leslie, is this song still played in country music, or is it too old? Leslie (58:23):Some of the classic country stations. Yeah, he's doing an anniversary for that song. Cubby (58:26):Really? It's a great song. Leslie (58:28):It is. Barnes (58:30):Early 90s was good for country. With Garth, yeah... Leslie (58:35):Big resurgence now. Cubby (58:37):The number one song this week, back in 1990 on the modern rock charts, this is before Been Caught Stealing, Jane's Addiction had a song called Stop. Jane's Addiction (58:46):(singing) Barnes (58:58):Great song right there. The number one movie at the box office this week in 1990. Speaker 21 (59:02):What's happening? Speaker 22 (59:02):I think about you every minute. I feel like I can still feel you. Speaker 21 (59:10):The problem with you is you still think you're real. It's all up here now. You want to move something, you got to move it with your mind. Cubby (59:17):That would be Ghost, everybody. Number one at the box office. And finally, everybody was watching this show on TV, it was huge and you probably know the theme. Speaker 23 (59:32):(singing) Cubby (59:33):In Living Color was the big TV show this week in 1990. And that is 30 years ago this week, folks. Leslie (59:39):Wow. Barnes (59:40):I loved that show.

Arrancamos con unas banderillas al profesor, que lo veiamos un poco dormido ultimamente (y como veremos surten efecto). Buen ánimo general por los últimos resultados. Repasamos el partidazo contra el Chelsea. Antonio tirado a la larga entre el balón y la porteria. Yarmolenkazo para cambiar la tendencia. Nos vamos a Newcastle y Casta se pregunta porque no abrazan a Soucek y todos nos preguntamos que hacía Fornals reclamando ese fuera de juego. Repasamos próximos rivales. En Payet is better than Zidane con motivo del 125 aniversario Rodri nos cuenta los inicios del club y como tras un apuesta la equipacion claret and blue pasó a ser la uniforme hammer.

Stephanie Dorthea Mills[9][10] (born March 22, 1957)[1][11] is an American Grammy award–winning singer, songwriter and Broadway stage actress. Mills rose to stardom as "Dorothy" in the original Broadway run of the musical The Wiz from 1975 to 1977. The song "Home" from the show later became a Number 1 U.S. R&B hit for Mills and her signature song. During the 1980s, Mills scored five Number 1 R&B hits, including "Home", "I Have Learned to Respect the Power of Love", "I Feel Good All Over", "(You're Puttin') A Rush on Me" and "Something in the Way (You Make Me Feel)". Mills' won a Grammy Award for Best Female R&B Vocal Performance for her song "Never Knew Love Like This Before" in 1981. The Wiz (1975) and later success[edit]Mills's career took a rise when she portrayed Dorothy in the Broadway musical The Wiz, an African-American adaptation of The Wonderful Wizard of Oz. Her song "Home" from the show would become her signature tune for years, and would be covered later by Diana Ross for the movie adaptation three years later. Commercial success in the music industry remained elusive until 1979, when she signed to the 20th Century Fox Records label. There, Mills found her niche in mainly disco music, recording songs such as "Put Your Body In It", "You Can Get Over", and "What Cha' Gonna Do With My Lovin'". The resulting album, What Cha' Gonna Do with My Lovin', was Mills's first gold record and the first major hit for the James Mtume-Reggie Lucas production team. She quickly followed the success with 1980's Sweet Sensation, which featured Mills's hit "Never Knew Love Like This Before". The single became a #12 R&B and #6 Pop hit in 1980, as well as reaching #4 in the UK Singles Chart.[13] 1981's Stephanie featured a top hit for her and Teddy Pendergrass entitled "Two Hearts", while her 1983 album, Merciless, featured her hit cover of Prince's "How Come You Don't Call Me Anymore?", as well as the #3 dance chart hit "Pilot Error", which was her first dance hit in the U.S. In 1984, Mills had her third UK hit with "The Medicine Song" (#29),[13] which also reached #1 on the U.S. dance chart and #8 on the R&B chart. On May 24, 1984, Mills returned to theater to star in a short-lived touring revival of The Wiz. The production closed on June 3, after 13 performances and 7 previews.[citation needed] In 1985, Mills's recording of "Bit by Bit (Theme from Fletch)" was featured in the Chevy Chase film, Fletch, and reached #52 on the Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Singles & Tracks chart and #78 on The Billboard Hot 100.[14]Success for Mills had peaked until 1986, when her version of the Angela Winbush-penned "I Have Learned to Respect the Power of Love", hit #1 on the R&B singles chart. Mills truly returned, however, with her next release, If I Were Your Woman in 1987 under MCA Records, which she was now signed. The hits from the album include the title track, originally a hit for Gladys Knight & the Pips in 1971; a three-week #1 R&B hit, "I Feel Good All Over" (a song her label mate Patti LaBelle did not wish to cover); and "You're Puttin' a Rush on Me", to name a few of the songs released. The album reached platinum status. That same year, she appeared in the NBC TV special, Motown: Merry Christmas along with other musical artists and actors, performing the song, "Christmas Everyday", which was written by actor/comedian Redd Foxx. Mills's success continued with 1989's Home album. The hits from that album include "The Comfort of a Man", the title track, a cover of her old standard from The Wiz and another song penned by Winbush titled "Something in the Way You Make Me Feel". It became another platinum record for Mills. See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.
