| 7/28/25 | A Tribute to Ozzy and Val Kilmer | Always a bridesmaid but never a bride.

Well since hip hop came on the scene in the late 70's the chance that a portion of another song is being lifted are pretty darn good.

| 7/1/24 | The Lost Art of Movie Soundtracks | Remember when you were a kid and you could go out and buy a soundtrack to remember your favorite movie? In the days before home video and streaming that was our way to relive the movie experience, and those soundtracks did not disappoint. They were some of the best ways to get compilations for your parties without having to create a mix tape. What happened? Those multiplatinum soundtracks seem to have been replaced with prosaic orchestral themes. Unfortunately the trut... | 1h 43m 39s | ||||||
| 4/26/24 | Beyonce and the Country Crossover Conundrum | Why is “crossover” a dirty word in the music world? Texas girl Beyoncé grew up in Houston, performed at the Rodeo, and loved horses, but some people got royally torqued when she recently released a country record.

| 3/18/24 | Desert Island Discs | Okay I know we’ve all played the game where we ask ourselves “You're trapped on a desert island and you can only bring X". In this case we pick and justify our ten albums that we would listen to for the rest of our lives...or at least until we get off this damn island. We might even throw in a few songs we think should be thrown in the ocean and never heard from again. So sit right back and hear a tale, a tale of a fateful ego trip as Chuck and Cary explain their picks. https://music.apple.... | 1h 37m 41s | ||||||
| 3/1/24 | Size Doesn't Matter | Does it take a large catalog of work to be famous and revered? We don't think so, and in this episode we sing the praises of the small catalog.
