Truth or Fiction: Musical Biopics with Monte Warden

from Talking Movies with My Mom · host Two Bells Media

On a super-sized edition of "Talking Movies with My Mom," we’re joined by special guest Monte Warden, a two-time inductee into The Texas Music Hall of Fame as both a solo artist and as a founding member of his band, The Wagoneers, and writer of hit songs for recording artists like George Strait. Together, we sort truth from fiction in three of our favorite musicians’ life stories: "Rocketman"; "Weird: The Al Yankovic Story"; and "The Buddy Holly Story."Come for the investigation into a levitating piano (never happened), recording in a college restroom (actually happened and have a plaque to prove it), and mixing up a Fender Strat with a Fender Telecaster (also happened, and how could it?). Stay for the conversation about what makes a biopic — the facts of the life or the spirit of the man. And, of course, the singing (Monte, not us). For additional information, resources, and a transcript of the episode, visit https://www.podcastics.com/podcast/talking-movies-with-my-mom/ You can also follow us on Instagram @talkingmovieswithmymom.
