Adam Goldberg has quite legitimately always been one of my favorite actors—and from Dazed & Confused, to the Fargo TV show, to A Beautiful Mind, he has always been EXCELLENTLY attired, right down to his boots. But he doesn't just play a person who cares about boots on TV and in movies! Adam is a very real-deal obsessive who's neck deep in Clinch, Zerrow's, and quite possibly too much more.In an episode that will surely open the floodgates to most-to-all of Hollywood coming on the Shoecast to confess their footwear compulsions, Adam and Ben discuss boots he wore in different roles—usually self-selected!—sings a lovely rendition of "Working My Way Back to Ropers", tells the twist-and-turn-filled tale of his decades-long quest to get James Dean's boots reproduced, and announces the "only"(ha!) pair of boots he wants, all while we attempt to figure out what the hell is wrong with us for loving this stuff so much. ______________________________________________________________________________________________This episode was sponsored by Nicks Boots—who turns 60 this year!Theme Song: The Road by Punk Rock Opera

Welcome to the Drum Channel Podcast with Billy Amendola. This week's guest is one of NYC's first-call-session-drummers of the 70s-80s and beyond, Allan Schwartzberg. Schwartzberg, who started playing Jazz at a young age, went on to record drums on AM/FM radio hits; “Tie A Yellow Ribbon” (Tony Orlando & Dawn), “Cats in the Cradle” (Harry Chapin), “Working My Way Back to You,” (The Spinners), “Funky President,” (James Brown) Never Can Say Goodbye,” (Gloria Gaynor), “Star Wars Theme,” (Meco), and Rod Stewart's “Great American Songbook,” (volumes 2,3,4), to name a few. In between his very busy session schedule, Allan was king of the jingles here in New York, as well as touring periodically with Stan Getz, Mountain, (filling in for Corky Laing), Peter Gabriel, (who first solo album after his departure from Genesis, featured Schwartz on drums), The Brecker Brothers and more. Enjoy!

The story of how, at the age of 40, Christine Morrison walked away from her long and successful career as a fashion executive and beauty marketer (at the time she was a VP for Calvin Klein in NYC) to become a freelance writer. A lifelong fashion aficionado (think Carrie Bradshaw here, ladies) Christine had dreamed of a career as a writer when she younger; she'd even majored in journalism. But life intervened. Christine's is a story of relentlessly and methodically working your way back to your passion. Today, Christine (@writinginblackandwhite) is a working fashion and beauty writer based in Atlanta. Her articles have appeared in, publications including The Washington Post and The Boston Globe. She has also lent her copywriting expertise to brands including Calvin Klein, Juicy Couture, and Lumity skincare. The mom of twins is currently on working her memoir—a collection of essays reflecting the meaning behind and the humor in what she wore while forming her identity, navigating her way to true love, and discovering her authentic self.

The Association released their debut (and most successful) album, And Then...Along Comes The Association in June 1966. They had received some success with non-album releases prior to this, but the album itself would become one of the best selling albums of the year. The Association was known as sunshine pop, which incorporated elements of both folk rock and psychedelic music. The group was formed originally by Jules Alexander (guitar) and Terry Kirkman (wind instruments, percussion) who met in Hawaii in 1962, then reconnected in Los Angeles in the mid-60's. They joined with Russ Giguere (rhythm guitar, percussion), Brian Cole (bass, woodwinds), Ted Bluechel, Jr. (drums, rhythm guitar, bass), and Jim Yester (rhythm guitar, keyboards) to make this album. All group members contributed to vocals, and the group was known for their harmonies.The Association was first known as The Men, and played as the house band for The Troubadour where they would play with musicians such as Mama Cass Elliot and David Crosby. The Association would continue touring for decades, though with over 20 members throughout the time. Enter the YoungThis deep cut is the lead song from the album. It gives a good sense of the harmonies of the group. The lyrics are an ode to the younger generation. "Enter the young, yeah. Yeah, they've learned how to think. Enter the young, yeah. More than you think they think."Your Own LoveAnother deep cut seems representative of the sounds typical of television shows of the time. Russ Giguere takes the lead vocal duties on this one. Along Comes MaryThis is a hit from the album. The phrase itself was somewhat controversial, because "Mary" was a euphemism for marijuana, though the band never confirmed this. Either way, Mary improves the life of the singer - "When we met I was sure out to lunch, now my empty cup tastes as sweet as the punch." Jim Yester was on lead vocals for this hit.CherishA ballad would be the biggest hit off the album, and would have decades-long staying power. Kirkman and Giguere share lead vocal duties. The single runs 3 minutes and 13 seconds, but it was listed as "3:00" because radio programmers discouraged songs over the 3-minute limit. ENTERTAINMENT TRACK:Theme from the television series “The Dick Van Dyke Show”This comedy would end its run in June 1966. STAFF PICKS:“Opus 17 (Don't You Worry "Bout Me)” by The Four SeasonsBruce features the Jersey Boys in their prime. This is the second single released after the title song from the album "Working My Way Back to You." The song was written by Sandy Linzer and Denny Randell, who also wrote "Let's Hang On." There are 5 key changes in this 2-1/2 minute song.“Dirty Water” by The StandellsWayne's staff pick mocks the city of Boston, Massachusetts and it's then infamously polluted Charles River and Boston Harbor. Some elements of this song from the Los Angeles garage band were inspired by a Mugging of their producer, the women's curfew at Boston University, and even a mention of the Boston Strangler. Fans of the Bruins and Red Sox will recognize this tune from hockey and baseball games.“Red Rubber Ball” by The CyrkleRob's staff pick was written by Paul Simon and Bruce Woodley, and reached number 2 on the charts. Simon offered the song to the band when they were opening for Simon and Garfunkel on tour. It’s a fun, positive song - "The morning sun is rising like a red rubber ball."“Kicks” by Paul Revere & the RaidersBrian finishes off the staff picks with a minor key song. This is the first anti-drug song of the rock era. It was written by Barry Mann and Cynthia Weil as a warning to a friend about the dangers in drug use. COMEDY TRACK:“You Can't Roller Skate in a Buffalo Herd” by Roger MillerThis comedy track finishes off our session this week. Stay away from those buffalo herds, but you can be happy if you want to!

Taken from: For Amusement Only: the life and death of the American arcade [https://www.theverge.com/2013/1/16/3740422/the-life-and-death-of-the-american-arcade-for-amusement-only] 75. "If you’ve never been inside a “real” arcade, it could be hard to distinguish one from say, oh, a Dave & Buster’s. Authenticity is a hard nut to crack, but there are a few hallmarks of the video game arcade of days gone by: first, they have video games. Lots and lots of video games, and (usually) pinball machines. They’re dark (so that you can see the screens better), and they don’t sell food or booze. You can make an exception for a lonely vending machine, sure, but full meals? No thanks. There’s no sign outside that says you “must be 21 to enter.” These are rarely family-friendly institutions, either. Your mom wouldn’t want to be there, and nobody would want her there, anyway. This is a place for kids to be with other kids, teens to be with other teens, and early-stage adults to serve as the ambassador badasses in residence for the younger generation. It’s noisy, with all the kids yelling and the video games on permanent demo mode, beckoning you to waste just one more quarter. In earlier days (though well into the ‘90s), it’s sometimes smoky inside, and the cabinets bear the scars of many a forgotten cig left hanging off the edge while its owner tries one last time for a high score, inevitably ending in his or her death. The defining feature of a “real” arcade, however, is that there aren’t really any left." 76. Open Comments: 77. The years between 1978 and 1982 saw unprecedented growth across the entire video game industry. A January 1982 cover story in Time magazine noted that the most popular machines were pulling in $400 a week in quarters and the number of dedicated arcades in the United States reached its peak with around 13,000. Video game cabinets also appeared in grocery stores, drug stores, doctor’s offices, and even in school recreation centers. The arcade chain Tilt began opening locations in the growing number of shopping malls across America. Beginning with Space Invaders in 1978, a string of now legendary games were released in rapid succession: Galaxian ('79), Asteroids ('79), Berzerk ('80), Centipede ('80), Rally-X ('80), Defender ('81), Donkey Kong ('81), Frogger ('81), Galaga ('81), Ms. Pac-Man ('81), Dig Dug ('82), Donkey Kong Jr. (('82), Joust ('82), Pole Position ('82), Q*bert ('82), and Tron ('82). 78. Simultaneously, the home console business blossomed: from the primitive Magnavox Odyssey in 1972, the concept of home gaming erupted with the Atari 2600 and the Apple II in 1977, the Intellivision in 1980, the Commodore 64 and ColecoVision in 1982, and the NES and Sega Master System in 1985.But it was 1980’s Pac-Man, the most successful video arcade game of all time, released by Midway in the United States, which had the most lasting effects on the industry and the American psyche. 79.

Born and raised in Hamilton, OH, the fourth child of nine, he gravitated toward music at an extremely early age; he was only five years old when he received his first guitar. 119. By 11, he was playing in local bands with one of his brothers. 120. Influenced by old-schoolers B.B. King, Jimmy Reed, Chuck Jackson, and Junior Walker, and then-current chart-toppers The Temptations, Wilson Pickett, and the Beatles, by the late '60s, Roger had added Hammond organ to his resumé of instruments, and 2 more brothers. 121. Like many of his generation, Roger and his brothers became enraptured by such funk/rock artists as Jimi Hendrix, the Isley Brothers, Stevie Wonder, and Funkadelic. 122. By age 26, the band was playing shows all over the U.S. and Canada. The group added another Troutman brother to their ranks ((4 in total), Terry, who went by the nickname of "Zapp," and that soon became the group's new name. 123. Shortly thereafter, Bootsy Collins' brother, Phelps "Catfish" Collins, happened to catch a gig by Zapp, who put them in touch with Bootsy, who then brought them to the attention of George Clinton. Clinton promptly signing the group to his own custom label, Uncle Jam. 124. Clinton got Roger (Not Zapp) a performance spot at a 1979 Awards show and declared “Roger Troutman as the most talented musician” he'd ever seen in his life. Roger’s performance created a buzz for Zapp's self-titled debut release, issued in 1980. 125. Audio clips 126. After the 1980 release of Zapp's debut album, tensions rose between Roger Troutman and George Clinton. Troutman's solo album “The Many Facets of Roger” was primarily funded by Clinton and Clinton was experiencing financial troubles due to his poor management skills and shifting tastes in music. 127. Troutman could see the disarray surrounding Clinton and severed their partnership by accepting a higher offer for the album from Warner Bros. and cut Clinton out of the picture. 128. Clinton's view was, "…I paid for it. I don't like to go into it on the negative side, but it cost about 5 million [dollars], and a lot of people's jobs and what we consider as the empire falling". - The financial loss from the rupture with Troutman is credited as one of the factors that derailed Clinton's musical career and sent Funkadelic into hiatus. 129. On Sunday morning, April 25, 1999, Roger Troutman was fatally wounded as a result of an apparent murder-suicide that was orchestrated by his older brother, Larry. Roger was shot several times in the torso by Larry as he exited a recording studio. Larry's body was found in a car a short distance away from the murder scene. There were no witnesses at the time, and Larry's motive for the murder of Roger remains unclear. Larry had been experiencing increasingly severe financial problems managing the family-run business. Larry might also have been bitter after Roger fired him as manager of his music career, a position Larry had held for several years. 130. After Troutman's death, Ice Cube said that "More Bounce To The Ounce" introduced him to hip-hop. "I was in the sixth grade, we'd stayed after school. We had this dude named Mr. Lock, and he used to bring in his radio with these pop-lockers. He used to teach [the dance group] the L.A. Lockers, and he would do community service in after-school programs. He knew a lot of kids and introduced them to all the new dances, he put on that song 'More Bounce', and they started pop-locking. And I think from that visual, from seeing that, it was my first introduction into hip-hop. Period. I didn't know nothing about nothing. I hadn't heard 'Rapper's Delight' yet. It was the first thing that was really fly to me. They started dancing, and since 'More Bounce' goes on forever, they just got down. I just think that was a rush of adrenaline for me, like a chemical reaction in my brain.” 131. Open Comments 132. Black Movies: Fame 133. Blending elements of straight drama, music, and dance, FAME shadows a group of gifted students (including singer Irene Cara, dancer Gene Anthony Ray, and composer Lee Currieri) during their time at New York's prestigious High School of Performing Arts, where they're learning the skills they need to succeed. The film -- which won two Oscars for its music (including a Best Original Song statuette for the title track "Fame" -- spawned a 1980s TV series of the same name that allowed several of its young stars to reprise their roles and gave Debbie Allen a much more prominent role as a no-nonsense dance teacher. 134. Critical response: Gene Siskel of the Chicago Tribune, "When the kids perform, the movie sings, but their fictionalized personal stories are melodramatic drivel." - Roger Ebert of the Chicago Sun-Times, "Fame is a genuine treasure, moving and entertaining, a movie that understands being a teen-ager as well as Breaking Away did, but studies its characters in a completely different milieu." 135. Audio Clips 136. Open Comments 137. Black Television: Eddie Murphy – The Young Prince 138. Edward Regan Murphy, (@ 19 yrs. old), Comedian, actor, screen writer, film producer, and singer? He was the dominant comedic voice during the 1980s. 139. Born and raised in NYC, parents split when he was 3, father died when he was eight, lived in foster care for a year, and began doing stand-up comedy after listening to "That Nigger's Crazy", by Richard Pryor, when he was 15. 140. Doing impersonations of Al Green at talents shows helped him land gigs at late night clubs. 141. After the 79-80 season of SNL wrapped for summer break, the show had a major shakeup. OG Producer, Lorene Michaels and the OG cast left. After the new producer was hired, she had 2 months to re-cast the show. 142. In September 19-year-old Eddie contacted the show and repeatedly pleaded for an audition. 2 months later he made his national television debut. 143. Audio Clips 144. Major criticism:” Welcome Back, Eddie Murphy! The rise and fall and rise of America's most dangerous comic” - Chris Nashawaty November 06, 2011 - [https://ew.com/article/2011/11/06/welcome-back-eddie-murphy-the-rise-and-fall-and-rise-of-americas-most-dangerous-comic/] 145. “If you grew up watching Eddie Murphy chomping on a cigar as Gumby or getting gunned down in a hail of bullets as Buckwheat on Saturday Night Live, or better yet, dropping F-bombs as the cool-cat star of 48 Hrs., Trading Places, and Beverly Hills Cop, it’s hard to wrap your head around the fact that there’s a whole generation out there that has no clue just how funny and dirty he once was. When they think of Eddie Murphy — if they even think of him at all — it’s as the donkey from the kiddie franchise Shrek, or the once-dangerous comedian desperately searching for laughs in fart gags and fat suits in The Klumps.” 146. Audio Clips 147. Open Comments 148. Question: Is Eddie funny or formula? 149. Vote: Favorite Pop Culture thing for the year?

Jersey Boys is by far my favorite Broadway musical. For those who are unfamiliar with Jersey Boys, you must be living under a rock! Jersey Boys was a 2005 jukebox musical with music by Bob Gaudio, and book by Marshall Brickman and Rick Elice. It is presented in a documentary-style format that dramatizes the formation, success and eventual break-up of the 1960s rock 'n' roll group The Four Seasons. The musical is structured as four "seasons", each narrated by a different member of the band who gives his own perspective on its history and music. Songs include "Big Girls Don't Cry", "Sherry", "December 1963 (Oh, What A Night)", "My Eyes Adored You", "Stay", "Can't Take My Eyes Off You", "Working My Way Back to You" and "Rag Doll", among others. The title refers to the fact that the members of The Four Seasons are from New Jersey and are men. The musical ran on Broadway from 2005 to 2017, and since its debut has seen two North American national tours and productions in London's Wes --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/mike36/support

Jersey Boys won four 2006 Tony Awards including Best Musical, and the 2009 Laurence Olivier Award for Best New Musical. Jersey Boys was the behind the scenes story of Frankie Valli and The Four Seasons. From the streets of New Jersey to the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, this was the musical that rocked the world. Let’s talk about some legal issues that surfaced during the running of the musical. Specifically, there are two cases that grew out of copyright infringement claims and shook the foundation of the Jersey Boys empire. They are SOFA Ent., Inc. v. Dodger Prod. and Corbello v. DeVito. In this episode, I'll discuss each case. For those who are die-hard fans of "Jersey Boys," you will love the new musical, "A Bronx Tale" that has taken Broadway by storm.
In the triumphant season 2 premier, Alf becomes even more of a slave than he already was.
