The theme to this episode is the thrill of victory and the agony of defeat, all thanks to the OSU Cowboys.  We also find out what kind of job Preston really wants and is hoping Rock Sports Radio can help making the dream come true.  We have everything from Cracker Barrel to Marty McFly and why you don't want to wait in line long at the Disney theme parks and more on this episode of Rock Sports Radio.

Our first 'return' guest on the MMHP, Bay City, MI, Author and Beatles fanatic Kristofer Engelhardt was our first author discussion outside of Sir Fred, during Season 1, Episode 12. He was already at work on Fully Uncovered when we sat him down to talk about his books, Beatles Series and Mark Farner. Please give that episode a listen once again and refresh! 

   In this episode, Kris dives into the autumn years of the fab two who are left with us and all the final treasures that have been laid upon his path from all four, completing his series with Beatles Fully Uncovered. Released Sept. 19, 2022, Englehardt sees no reason to tackle this topic anymore and gives us the lowdown on some of his favorite interviews and the ones that got away. Dr. J helps the crew dive even deeper with Kris, as he wasn't available the last time for the Season 1 interview. This episode has a lot of outtake footage as well, going off topic into Chuck Berry, U2, Queen and more. This is the Ultimate Author interview right here. Once again, sharpen your pencil and take notes folks...

Voici l'histoire qui se cache derrière le son d'un morceau qui a marqué le blues, le rock'n'roll et la musique en général : Johnny B. Goode de Chuck Berry !

Fasten your seatbelts, music enthusiasts, as I welcome the multi-faceted Canadian artist Jack Panic on this engaging installment of Music Junkies. Jack's musical voyage began with the piano at the tender age of eight, transitioning to the guitar, and eventually playing bass in the band Sparrows. As he shares his fascinating journey, we traverse the turbulent terrain of the music industry, unearthing insights about the endurance and sincerity found in bands like Motley Crue and Tommy Lee, punctuated by an intriguing encounter with DJ Ashba

But it's not all about the high notes and hit songs. The conversation takes a poignant turn, as we explore the echoes of managing relationships for artists living life in the fast lane. We dissect the transformation of the entertainment world, from the rock & roll rebellion of yesteryears to the more accountable and somewhat censored environment of today. Also on the playlist is a discussion about how concerts have evolved over the years, from a wild, immersive experience to a polished performance for social media.

Our deep dive into the world of music wouldn't be complete without discussing our favorite genres and songs, and underlining the importance of an open mind when it comes to appreciating different types of music. Jack and I also pull back the curtain on his secret Billy Talent show at the Horseshoe Tavern in Toronto. Finally, we wrap up by exploring the creative process behind his music, the challenges of releasing an album independently, and where you can find him online. Tune in to this electric episode of Music Junkies and experience the thrilling journey of Jack Panic!

Chuck Berry (1926-2017) was the original King of Rock and Roll. That is according to Jon Brewer, and being referred to as 'God of rock docs,' he should know.

Jon discusses Chuck Berry and the making of his documentary about the American icon. The film tells the story of Chuck’s life through the lens of his relatives and friends, and also uses dramatic reenactments of certain situations Chuck Berry lived through. 

Jon goes on to share a host of amazing stories drawn from his 50 years in the music business. He worked with the likes of Jimi Hendrix, Rolling Stones, he was David Bowie's manager at one point, he produced some of Gerry Rafferty's songs, and he spent significant time with B.B. King. And that's just to name a few.

As Jon has more documentary projects under way, Factual America will be following his work and bring him back for more exciting stories about iconic musicians.

“Chuck Berry was the original king of rock and roll. He was a poet, he invented many words, and he created the teenage audience.” - Jon Brewer
