The West Wing: "17 People" In what's widely regarded as one of TV's all-time best bottle episodes, the staff of The White House stays late for two reasons: a tense confrontation in the Oval Office about the President's health, and a writers' room punch-up of Correspondents' Dinner jokes. Time to talk turn-of-the-century liberal politics with Aaron Sorkin's Emmy sweeping series -- including the stacked cast who do "walk and talks" and speak in meter, why Martin Sheen makes a good TV president, how young Bradley Whitford was so much less hot than he is now, and how the show does (or doesn't) hold up in a 2020s political landscape.

We had the pleasure of interviewing Hrishikesh Hirway over Zoom video!Acclaimed musician and Song Exploder host/creator Hrishikesh Hirway's first EP under his own name, Rooms I Used to Call My Own, is out now. The album features collaborations with a long list of acclaimed artists, songwriters and producers including Yo-Yo Ma, Jay Som, Baths, Jenny Owen Youngs, Jimmy Tamborello (The Postal Service, Dntel), Jonathan Snipes (Clipping), John Mark Nelson and Grammy-winners John Congleton (St. Vincent, Sharon Van Etten, Angel Olsen) and Kimbra.Rooms I Used to Call My Own marks the first time Hirway has released music under his own name following five critically acclaimed records under the moniker The One AM Radio. A deeply personal work, the EP is informed by Hirway's experiences as a podcast host; eschewing the inward gaze of his previous work as an artist, Rooms I Used to Call My Own instead focuses on collaboration, each song formed out of a conversation of sorts with everyone he's brought into the project with him. Likewise, the subjects of the EP are all other people: the people he loves. The songs are about the deep love and appreciation he holds for his wife, Lindsey, as well as his parents and family.Hirway is also set to continue his Spring tour with Jenny Owen Youngs, performing select dates throughout the west coast in May. They'll be on stage together, doing one combined set of all their songs, performing as a duo. Jenny and Hrishikesh have collaborated as co-writers on several songs and are both storytellers, as hosts of popular, award-winning podcasts: Hrishikesh with Song Exploder, The West Wing Weekly and Home Cooking; and Jenny with Buffering the Vampire Slayer and Veronica Mars Investigations. These special performances will be a mix of songs and stories from two dear friends; find tickets HERE and see below for a list of dates.Hrishikesh Hirway has been producing music for over two decades; first with his project The One AM Radio, and later with MOORS, a collaboration with Oscar-nominated rapper/actor Lakeith Stanfield. As a composer, his credits include the Netflix original series Everything Sucks!, the theme for ESPN's 30 for 30 podcast and the theme for the Song Exploder series on Netflix. Hirway launched the award-winning podcast Song Exploder, where musicians take apart their songs and tell the stories behind their inspiration and creative process, in 2014. Since then, the podcast has been streamed and downloaded over 65 million times, and has featured guests including Fleetwood Mac, Billie Eilish, Dua Lipa, Solange, U2, Arcade Fire, Metallica, Lin-Manuel Miranda, The Roots and many more.

For our fifth season, we partnered up with Under The Radar to explore the lives of musicians, writers, actors, and creatives. Our guest Hrishikesh Hirway embodies the ethos of Why Not Both: he just released his debut solo EP "Rooms I Used To Call My Own" after spending the better part of the last decade crafting the brilliant podcasts Song Exploder, The West Wing Weekly and Home Cooking while executive producing The Jump with Shirley Manson. What surprised us most was learning that he started his podcast and writing journey in reaction to his music becoming his main source of professional success. After chatting with countless creatives, Hirway found his way back to songwriting with a nudge from his friend Jenny Owen Youngs and a renewed sense of personal purpose, proving that exploration and expression are the most important ingredients after all.

Hrishikesh Hirway has been making music for as long as he can remember and, as an adult, spent years building a career in the industry, writing, performing, producing, and touring. But, it was a moment where he took a bit of a pause to re-evaluate that led him to record an interview with a friend about the story and creative decisions behind a song that would change everything. That conversation eventually became the opening episode of the podcast, Song Exploder, which itself then exploded into a global phenomenon that I've been obsessed with since hearing that first episode. Now, it's grown into not just an award-winning podcast, but also a Netflix original television series where musicians break down the creative process behind their songs, featuring many of the biggest names in music like Alicia Keys, Billie Eilish, Lin-Manuel Miranda, Dua Lipa, The Killers, so many others. And, building on the success of Song Exploder, Hrishikesh has now grown a network of shows, producing and co-hosting the award-winning podcasts Home Cooking, with chef and author Samin Nosrat, and The West Wing Weekly, with actor Joshua Malina. He's also the host and producer of the Partners podcast.All the while, he's continued to write and perform his own music, releasing four albums under the moniker The One AM Radio, and an EP with Moors, his project with Lakeith Stanfield. As a composer, he has written music for film, television, and podcasts, including the score for the Netflix series "Everything Sucks!" and the theme to ESPN's "30 for 30" podcast. Recently, he released two singles, “Between There and Here," which features Yo-Yo Ma, and “Home,” featuring Jay Som. These, in fact, are the first songs he's released in 10 years, and the first under his own name. His new EP, Rooms I Used to Call My Own is out March 30.You can find Hrishikesh at: Website | Instagram | PodcastsIf you LOVED this episode you'll also love the conversations we had with Kaki King.

Ryan Luis Rodriguez of The Coolness Chronicles podcast returns for the closure to the remaining seasons of this always intense political thriller and disaster drama that is rather fascinating to watch still. But we ask are the non-Aaron Sorkin remaining seasons worth their weight on their own terms, are too many of his fanbase not giving those latter years an equal chance or did it end on a rough note? Furthermore, we again comment primarily on The Godfather-esque editing, other insane plot twists and the individual characters’ evolution.  A special thank you goes out to The West Wing Weekly podcast for helping us with some serious trivia as well! #JackedUpReviewShow #9/11 #TheWestWing #NCIS #MarkHarmon #MartinSheen #PresidentBartlett #SamSeabourne #WillBailey #Obama #JoshuaMolina #JimmySmits #RobLowe #Senate #Congress #AlanAlda #MASH #24TVShow #Mutiny #SecretService #JamesCromwell #JoshAndDonna #CJCregg #AllisonJanney #BradleyWhitford #JasonIsaacs #InternationalAffairs #SpyMayhem #PresidentsOfUS #POTUS #PoliticalDrama #NBC #FOX #CBS #TheDailyShow #Islamphobia #Racism #Prejudice #KarlRove #BillClinton #Kissinger #Nixon #Mom #Mockumentary #Documentary #Relevant #Controversial #Tone #Mood #Filmmaking #Noir #Season3 #Season4 #Season5 #Season6 #Season7 #Emmy #GoldenGlobe #DonHenley #NewYorkMinute #PresidentialAdvisor #AaronSorkin #TheEagles #TheNewsroom #AlexGraves #Oil #PlotBuildUp #2016Election #2020Elections #AgentGibbs #Terrorists #RockyCarroll #MichaelNouri #MartinSheen #JorjaFox #CSI #Crusade #Babylon5 #GaryCole #MichaelONeill #ChicagoHope #MiddleEast #Murder #ExecutiveOrder #AirStrike #USNavy #TheGodfather #Fraking #ArchieBunker #EditedMontages #Opera #Overseas #ForeignTrade #Scandal #DesignatedSurvivor #Psych #CharlieSheen #MadamSecretary #AntiHero #LawAndOrder #SVU #NYPDBlue #Leo #JohnSpencer #LALaw #Comedy #Drama #Thriller #StagePlays #ParksAndRec #Steadicam #WestWingWeekly #JamesBrolin #GeorgeHWBush #GeorgeWBush #CSPAN #DonaldTrump #PresidentialPrimaries #PoliticalOpponent #MarleeMatlin #Sports #CredibleThreat #GoodDrama #Diseases #CoronaVirus #Polling #CNN #News #DebatePrep #NonTraditional #JohnWells #Drugs #TedKennedy #PoliticalScandals #RoyalPains #DarkSide #TwoParter #MassiveAttack #PrisonBreak #Sitcom #SpeakerOfTheHouse #YoYoMa #USANetwork #LimitedSeriesEvent #MichaelNouri #TheOC #Pretty #Sexy #AwesomeShows #JohnDeLancie #FrontlineNews #JohnGoodman #Corruption #ClearAndPresentDanger #TomClancy #HBO #FailSafe #DonaldMoffat #JohnCarpenter #TheThing #Dementia #FamilyDrama #Cynical #PoliticalSpeeches #JaneaneGarafalo #Comedians #SNL #Babe #StarTrek #ER #TayeDiggs #Broadway #Prank #Ego #ElizabethMoss #Subtext #Scriptwriting #StockardChanning #ZeljkoIvanek #SaturdayNightLive #AnnabethGish #XFiles #RomanticTriangle #MaryLouiseParker #Weeds #JesseBradford #GlennClose #WilliamFichtner #AirForceOne #GuestSpots #MissionImpossible #Twitter #Stargate #VillainOfTheWeek #AnthonyZerbe #TonyAwardWinners #OlympusHasFallen #LawrenceODonnell #DaveMatthewsBand #JonBonJovi #FullFrontal #SamanthaBee #FooFighters #BareNakedLadiesBand #AllStarCast #BTS #BehindTheScenes #FunnyOrDie #Spoof #Parody #Expendables #SealTeamSix
