We are celebrating the most important gifts of any season: love, companionship and connection. Our guests are author Pilley Bianchi whose book, For The Love off Dog celebrates our rich canine bestie history and invites you to teach your any-age dog some new tricks. And TJ Lubinsky joins us to discuss his newest My Music Presents/PBS Special, Steve Lawrence and Eydie Gorme: Memories of My Mom And Dad.

Inspired by the work of her father John W. Pilley, the psychologist whose Border collie, Chaser, charmed the nation with his impressive understanding of language, Pilley hopes to share with you what she learned from her Dad and Chaser and inspire you to to better engage with your dog. She’s written the ultimate handbook designed to teach you how to teach your dog.

TJ Lubinsky is eager to tell us about his 20 year journey towards finally making the Steve and Eydie special of his dreams. Teen heartbreak led TJ to sooth his soul with the sound of Steve Lawrence and now TJ has teamed with Carol Burnett, Michael Feinstein and Steve and Eydie’s son, David Lawrence, to bring you a PBS special rich with remarkable musical TV moments featuring his parents singing, I’m Into Something Big, Sunrise Sunset, Blame It On The Bossa Nova, Portrait Of My Love, More, and more! 

We learn from TJ that management obstruction led to the long delay. We hear about the surprising source of the pristine footage he was able to find deep in a vault and we come to understand the role David's recollections played in the making of this visual celebration of the greatest singing spouse act in American music history. 

All that, plus TJ shares how his attention to detail pays off in the live shows he produces featuring legacy acts, why he always begins every project with the right intentions and the seemingly serendipitous ways in which he helps artists receive their well earned moments of recognition and appreciation!

And Fritz is recommending Napoleon in theaters and streaming, and Weezy was moved by the Charles Blow documentary South to Black Power on Max.

Season 2, episode 20 is here. Dominic, Connor, and Mark have an awesome conversation with everyone's favorite holographic crooner, James Darren - Vic Fontaine of Star Trek: Deep Space Nine.

This absolute legend has lived a life... South Philly, over 60 years of marriage, signing a studio deal. Touring. Acting. Being close friends & colleagues with all the greats. Vegas, baby, Vegas. TV star. Movie star. Director. And - of course... Star Trek. This conversation could have gone on all day and still be great.

Our beloved Erica LaRose is away today, but she will be back soon. Wash is out of uniform again, but looking good. We get some fan questions in, play a round of Star Trek Trivia, and we subject Frakes to being "Stuck on a Deserted Island with Connor Trinneer.” Get ready to have a laugh.

Critic, author and host of the podcast You Must Remember This Karina Longworth joins Pop Pantheon to help tell the story of patient zero for the concept of a “Pop Music Icon,” the legendary crooner and American Icon Frank Sinatra. Karina and DJ Louie trace Frank's career from its origins in clubs in Hoboken to the onset of what was perhaps the first true pop star fandemonium craze of the modern era, Sinatramania. Next, they discuss Frank's cornucopia of definitive American Standards, his success in the movie business, his role in turning Las Vegas into a world-class entertainment city and the formation of The Rat Pack. Finally, they consider his legacy in American popular music, his impact on celebrity culture and his influence on artists as far ranging as Elvis, Michael Jackson and Billie Eilish.

Episode 2.26 He Came Bearing Gifts: Cheese Mule is back, hey he said he'd bring us rum.  We try Cane Island Venezuela & Equiano, from which Garrick makes a Rum Manhattan.    The conversation deteriorates into Satrgate and Eminem.  

Two rambling idiots stumble through rum, movies, television shows, theme parks, and all things Nerdy. With backgrounds in entertainment and theme park design you never know where each show will take you... but there will be booze. 

In the Bonus Room, Thomas talks about how a voice student can best use his/her time to improve, the concept of singing naturally, aging and the voice, and finally, interpreting different styles of music.

A number of top professionals have come to Thomas Heyer for help with technical problems which leads us to a further discussion of technique in singing. As a teacher he was first opposed to teaching on Zoom, but now is comfortable with using this method of teaching. Other ideas discussed are how seeing a particular graffiti in Minnesota spoke directly to him, how he works on passaggio passages with his students, and finally, he gives his take on the theme of talent vs. hard work.

Thomas Heyer is a Professor of Voice at the Hochschule für Musik und Darstellende Kunst Frankfurt am Main. Recognized as one of the top voice teachers in Europe, his students sing in major opera houses throughout Europe. As a tenor he has sung throughout Europe, in addition to North America and Africa.

In the first part of our conversation, I ask Thomas about the arc of his career, first as a singer and then as a teacher, the beginning of which was different from that of most singers and teachers. We then discuss in depth his approach to teaching and the main areas where he focuses his concentration... vocal cords, resonance, and support, and how to bring these into balance.

SILENT NIGHT (SONGS OF THE SEASON)

Silent night, holy night! 
 All is calm, all is bright 
 Round yon Virgin, Mother and Child 
 Holy infant so tender and mild, 
 Sleep in heavenly peace, 
 Sleep in heavenly peace 

Silent night, holy night! 
 Shepherds quake at the sight 
 Glories stream from heaven afar 
 Heavenly hosts sing Alleluia, 
 Christ the Savior is born! 
 Christ the Savior is born 

Silent night, holy night! 
 Son of God love's pure light 
 Radiant beams from Thy holy face 
 With the dawn of redeeming grace, 
 Jesus Lord, at Thy birth 
 Jesus Lord, at Thy birth 

Silent night, holy night! 
 All is calm, all is bright 
 Round yon Virgin, Mother and Child 
 Holy infant so tender and mild, 
 Sleep in heavenly peace, 
 Sleep in heavenly peace 

Lyrics:  Joseph Mohr
Musical Arrangement:  Franz Xaver Gruber

Upward and Onward Productions Presents “Our Meeting at the Crossroads” music series episode “Red Clay Chronicles”. This segment is all about Tony Hightower’s road to jazz. Host Darren Lorenzo, takes you inside this musical experience. Join us for talks about Atlanta, the music industry and jazz. 

The art of cool has been wayward since the likes of Nat King Cole, Frank Sinatra, Mel Tormé, Miles Davis, and John Coltrane. As represented by these legends of jazz, cool is a state of mind, an attitude of confidence and strength in one’s craft. Jazz artist Tony Hightower encompasses a new age cool that is part homage and part regeneration. Being not only an admirer but a student of the genre, Hightower’s passion and direct connection to jazz music allows him the advantage of properly emulating the timelessness of the classics without the kitsch while still injecting his own interpretations.

Tony Hightower was immersed in multiple forms of music as a child. The son of prominent jazz vocalist Theresa Hightower, his experiences with music, jazz in particular, were ingrained in his upbringing. Regularly witnessing not only his mother perform but a wide range of talented artists helped shape his own penchants for singing and arranging. Hightower’s inherent musical expertise spans genres, allowing him opportunities to create with such talents as Lionel Ritchie, Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis, Outkast, Dottie Peoples, Charlie Wilson and a roster of other artists and producers. Critically acclaimed musicians Freddy Cole and Wycliffe Gordon have both acknowledged Hightower’s ingenuity in regards to The New Standard, with Cole providing musical guidance throughout the conception while Gordon praised the project as a “great recording.” However, accolades for this album don’t stop there; The New Standard received a nomination, amongst veterans and major label-backed artists, as a candidate for the Grammy’s 2015 Best Jazz Vocal Album. Although the candidacy did not manifest into an official nomination, this high achievement further validates the authenticity of Hightower’s purist jazz vision.

The bare honesty in Tony Hightower’s works emit not only through his albums but also in his performances. Speaking on the live experience, he reflects, “Performing live is like a conversation, a conference call; the musicians are having a conversation on stage and then having a conversation with the audience. I enjoy the connection I’m able to have with the [listeners].” With only his passion and vocals on stage, along with the assistance of his band, Hightower confidently shares his labor of love and His respect for the cool.
