Howard Jones Meets Jimmy Jam!

from Naked Lunch · host Phil Rosenthal, David Wild, and Straw Hut Media

This week, on "Naked Lunch," we explore the Soul in the Machine as we bring together two distinguished musical greats who each in their own way made David love The Eighties a lot more -- and who are both out there still turning on synthesizers and audiences here in 2027. They discuss Howard curating his current "Things Can Only Get Better Tour" featuring Wang Chung, English Beat and Modern English, and Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis' acclaimed "Nothing But Hits" Las Vegas residency at Volaire inside the Venetian. Join us for great stories about Stevie Wonder, George Michael, Ringo Starr and more and some deep musical conversation. For more on Howard's tour and upcoming 2027 album, "Global Citizen," go to http://www.howardjones.com.

ME READING STUFF Robyn O'Neil This is simply me reading stuff. Poems, essays, letters, recipes, and whatever else feels alive in the moment — mixed with my own rambling thoughts, laughter, and honest reflections on life, art, and everything in between.Think of it as having lunch with a good friend: warm, unfiltered, and admittedly a little bit strange. A space where we can escape together with books, encourage each other, and feel a little less alone.Sincerely,Robyn O’Neil Explicit Art Grind Podcast Dina Brodsky, Marshall Jones, Sophia Kayafas and Tun Myaing Art Grind is a podcast for and about artists, art lovers and art professionals. It is a social practice of giving back to the art community of which we are a part and explores the process, content, concept and motivation behind art making of both established and emerging artists and the people who bring that art to a wider audience. We are artists ourselves and wear many hats, including curation, art writing and art teaching. We share a passion for authentic and skilled art making, be it trained or self-taught. Whether in the studio, on your lunch hour or chilling out after a long day of hustle, have a listen while we explore, along with our guests, the backstories of what we fondly call “the art grind”.

Private Parts is where the naked truths come out and the fun really begins.Produced by Spirit Studios. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information. Explicit
