A lot is happening in the world, the government is shut down, and massive kookery all around. I work a lot, no days off, if you know me personally you’ve heard me complain about all the working. But, but, this week is my birthday, in the past I’ve done a joint bday show with Jeff Shuman, live from Musso & Frank, we also did a live from Disneyland. I’ve had my mother and sister on.

I Want You To Know - Sunny Moonshine

2025/09/23

My next guest is a time traveller. She manages to make melodies that sound familiar, classic, predetermined in the souls of the soulful, she has a folksy accent, modest demeanor… yet She seems other worldly, esoteric, with futuristic arrangements, and sensibilities, blending several genres at once—to create her own genre, she seems almost alien, wearing clothes that appear like a costume…a costume that someone from another time would believe a groovy art pop person would wear.Full disclosure, this

My next guest is a visual artist, not quite a musician (he makes music), a radio host and jock—at times. But, above all else, he’s someone with an artistic mind. When you’re with him, talk to him, or working with him—he doesn’t quite process things in a conventional and linear way. He brings his entire life story into his process. It’s truly an artistic mind. I had a mentor once tell me “treat every project you do as if it’s an art project”—and thankfully, (and unfortunately) it’s mostly easy for me

This is a remixed episode. It’s sort of a rerun with footnotes, updates, and revisiting themes. Since a lot of my show is interviewing my friends, or people I’m criss crossing within projects—often themes and events are revisited.In some cases, a show’s theme will change with time—I guess that’s the nature of life, but reverberations can be tracked, lines (jagged and linear) drawn back to an event or episode or person.Recently, while gathering mailbag questions, a writer named Sam asked about my

Are you ever out and about in the world and you spot one of those people who expertly dress to a specific period? Doesn’t it make you wonder—how much research has this person done? Is the easy to them? And, where is this inspirations sourced? Are they a profoundly superficial person (to quote Warhol). I don’t mean that as an insult. But sometimes you encounter someone with such a distinct sense of aesthetic you ask "where does it all come from?" My next is an artist, an expert in many things, and
