The LEGENDARY Iris Harrison and I are gonna go deep. This radio phenom has met, interviewed and played music by every musical heavyweight under the sun! We’ve all missed hearing Iris on-air since she retired this past year. But I’m feeling blessed to get to hang out for a bit to catch up… And you will, too!
Nick may be best known for forming the 1980s British new wave band Wang Chung. But Feldman was also half of the duo Promised Land, which also featured Jon Moss of Culture Club. He was a founding investor in Interactive Ideas and has worked for Warner Brothers, Sony Music and Sony/BMG. Even more important to me: Nick is a genuine and heartfelt human. We’ve met across the world on tour, sharing experiences, laughs and a few cries along the way. Listen in on some candid conversation with this 80s icon!
Mike has one of the most iconic personas from the 80s era, and a fascinating story of his formation of A Flock of Seagulls, the “other” famous band from Liverpool, UK. We’re going to have a chat about touring the world, finding fulfillment on- and off-stage, and what he’s doing to stay busy during the global pandemic.
Sure, many folks know Bob from Fast Times at Ridgemont High as Mike Damone, but music fans can catch Bob gigging with his band “Poppa’s Kitchen”. This man has quite a lengthy list of film and TV credits, and we’re gonna rap about what’s going on his life these days.
Sure, you probably saw Eddie on those iconic Robert Palmer videos, or with Chic, or Rod Stewart, or Blondie, or… yeah, you get it: this cat has played with- and recorded with EVERYONE! So many Grammy Award-winning records, you won’t even believe it. At least, until you hear his story. His newest album “Akosua” is a masterful blend of perfect hooks and sensual melodies. Eddie is one of those guys that leaves your jaw on the floor when you see him play, and your heart full when you spend time getting to know him. There may not be a kinder soul on the planet.
Here we reminisced about an incredible past, the current state of his world, and what’s to come.
If you heard part 1, you got to know how Glen got his start at an early age in the music business. He has recorded and toured with so many notable artists, it’ll make your head spin. Speaking of spinning, we’ll catch up to talk about Glen’s filling in for Tommy Lee, including a ride on the spinning roller-coaster drum kit. You won’t want to miss this one!
Mike and I have shared the stage many times over the years, and this cat has been an influence on me far beyond the lighted stage. He’s a seasoned pro from Motown, and has been releasing new music of his own over the past several years, in-between successful tours with The Romantics. Come get candid nostalgic with Mike Skill and me:
If you hadn’t fallen in love with Phil Buckman’s deep pocket onstage (with no shirt on) playing bass with Filter, Fuel or Petty Cash, or swooned over his characters on Boston Public or City of Angels, then you DEFINITELY grew fond of his inimitable voice behind Carl’s Jr. and NBC News. We’ll chat about all of that and more this week!
You have seen Geoff as the singer/guitarist of Western Aerial, Metts, Ryan & Collins and Ants in the Kitchen, or bought guitars from his award-winning Five Star Guitars, but the story of Geoff Metts goes much deeper. Come dig in and share some bandwidth with a business visionary to see how he’s been able to adapt to changes in the industry.
This gal will knock your socks off. She’s been a regular in the session world of LA for decades as the go-to sax player for the biggest names in the biz.

From her appearances on Star Trek Nemesis to her performances with Scorpions, we will unearth stories that you won’t want to miss!
