Beyond Radio Presents
by Beyond Radio with Tim Harris and Jeff Morris
Where music nostalgia and music discovery collide.Along with my friend Jeff Morris, we bring music nostalgia and music discovery together with this Podcast. The current release of episodes has been about 1 to 2 a month and the episodes relate to a larger playlist of music that is featured on Spotify.The premise is to draw off my history of personal charting to relate new to old, old to new and everywhere in between. Jeff gets presented with the playlist and acts as kind of an audience member, giving his feedback and perspective as it relates to his life, thus bringing in other nuances.Our hope is that the audience will also provide their feedback on the music and suggestions of how the songs relate to their personal soundtracks. We want the music discovery to be circular and run through the decades.The playlists (or Pod-Castlists as we refer to them) have a thematic flow that definitely meanders and breaks off into many tangents.

Beyond Radio Presents - Castlist 017 - Ep 5 - 8Trax with Chris Morin, Part 3 - Brelian Rhodes on B4 but where's Angie
Well, Part 3 of 8Trax with Chris Morin isn't the last part of the interview. Because of the length of the final section, I decided to break it down into parts 3 and 4. Part 3 finishes up our discussion of Chris's music. We get to hear several songs not amongst the 6 that we originally selected.…

Beyond Radio Presents - Castlist 017 - Ep 4 - Episode 100, Part 4 - 8Trax with Chris Morin, A myriad of influences
As we get into the real premise of the 8Trax episodes, each of the first 4 songs we explore come with their own set of musical influences. From '70s pop, folky jam band stylings, a post-grunge sound that Jeff likens to the actual local Boston music scene, and early '80s new wave, each of the song...

Beyond Radio Presents - Castlist 017 - Ep 2 - Episode 100, Part 2 - What Do You Want From Jacky? It's All in the Voice
After teasing it at the end of Episode 1, we finally unveil my #2 and #1 songs of 1975. The spotlight leans heavily on #2—an unexpectedly rewarding rediscovery that hit me in a way I didn't see coming after nearly 50 years. There's a lot going on beneath the surface, and we dig into it. From…

Beyond Radio Presents - Castlist 017 - Episode 100 Part 1 - Where Is My Jazzy Barmoire
After nearly 8 years, we've reached an incredible milestone worth celebrating! This episode will be the first of at least three parts, kicking off with a wild holiday story that takes up about a quarter of the show—stories are a big part of this podcast, and I love to weave in music behind them....

Beyond Radio Presents - Castlist 016 - Ep 3 - Party Musique - Concert Stories, Party Games, And The Leader of Our House Band Goes Solo
This is probably the longest episode that we've put out, but a reason for that will become evident as we move through this one. Before I focus on this year's music party, we must talk about Yungblud (again) and a fun Uber ride. Once we get to the party, the first song we discuss revolves around…
more -
Beyond Radio Presents - Castlist 016 - Ep 2 -Tim's Mouth Goes Foul and it's All in the Drums
The British band Sleep Token and related bands take up much of the first half of this episode. How do Whitney Houston, Outkast, and Billie Eilish factor in? You'll see. Sleep Token and another band from the genre perform a feat that has not happened since 2013, relating back to the protagonist of...
-
Beyond Radio Presents - Castlist 016 - Ep 1 - The Gods of Rock 'n Roll
The summer hiatus is over. Coming back with a new trilogy of episodes, the first begins with honoring the passing of Ozzy Osbourne. This is a packed episode, focusing mainly on a trio of artists and featuring a brief aside at the end. In all 45 songs/artists are highlighted or mentioned. There…

Beyond Radio Presents - Castlist 015 - Ep 3 - And We Have A Special Guest - A Music Mastermind, a Couple of Tra-La-La's, and Jesus with some Gravy on the Side
Oh, what a way to end an arc! Tom and I are blindsided by the connection the first song has to Jeff's daughter Eva - something potentially under our noses, but we were completely unaware of. We kind of rabbit-hole the band in question, and I unearth how the mastermind of this outfit was…

Beyond Radio Presents - Castlist 015 - Ep 2 - And We Have A Special Guest Part 2 - Bayou Soul, Tommy Splatter, Sibling Connections, and a Number of Left Turns
Part 2 of our conversation with Tom begins in concert territory. Unfortunately, we miss one that is happening that day. Jeff becomes intrigued with a video playlist that Tom and John (mostly) contribute to. From there, we revert to music from our youth, connected to our siblings, once annoying…

Beyond Radio Presents - Castlist 015 - Ep 1 - And We Have A Special Guest Part 1 - A Strange Afternoon Commences
Castlist 15 is a trio of episodes that all revolve around one afternoon of music at our house in March. Our friends Tom and Tony were over as they often are. Tom is a music junkie in a different way than me, and all four of us, my husband John included, connect to music deeply in various ways. I...

Beyond Radio Presents - Castlist 014 - Ep 7 - A Trio Of Interesting Songs with corresponding Revelations
Wow, it's been a while since I put out an episode under 30 minutes. Don't be fooled, it's packed with lots of great stuff. The final thought in the Songs of the Summer, 2024 edition, includes 3 songs that piqued my interest back then. It starts with a country artist doing a collab with a prolific...

Beyond Radio Presents - Castlist 014 - Ep 6 - Going to the chapel in the sick city
We still have our guest, Jeff's daughter Eva, for the first part of this episode. They introduce me to a song by 100 Gecs and then we get into the meat of the matter, the summertime explosion of Chappell Roan, We pretty much mention almost half of her phenomenal album "The Rise and Fall of a...

Beyond Radio Presents - Castlist 014 - Ep 5 - Song Of The Summer Part 2: Wow, A Rabbit Hole with Cheese at the End
After the playlist misstep at the end of the last episode, we resume with the real playlist. This episode features a great Uber story, the most bizarre of my 8 year history. A long defunct band surfaces with a new song, appropriate for the discussion. This begins the rabbit hole and a prolific...
-
Beyond Radio Presents - Castlist 014 - Ep 4 - What I Did Last Summer 2024 - The Song Of The Summer, Part 1
It's taken a while to finally get this episode out. Circumstances in the fall delayed a conversation with Jeff and then the holiday season did its usual thing. Before we even get to the first song a story about my sister and her car takes center stage, along with Thanksgiving catch ups. Once we…

Beyond Radio Presents - Castlist 014 - Ep 3 - What I Did Last Summer 2024, Part 3 - Disco Stories
We continue the discussion of some dance tunes, 1 new and 2 old ones that are associated with 2 great stories, one about my husband and the other from an Uber ride.

In this episode, we start off with a dance collaboration that unexpectedly showed up on the music party countdown and I reveal this year's top 5. Somebody has 2 songs in the top 5 and I feel one of the artists could win Best New Artist at next year's Grammys. One of the artists in the…

Beyond Radio Presents - Castlist 014 - Ep 1 - What I Did Last Summer 2024, Part 1 - The House Band, Concerts, and the Wonders of Sushi
Summer stories will be the bulk of Castlist 014. First off a tie back to an artist from a recent episode. Then I'm in concert mode with 2 great shows.

Beyond Radio Presents - Castlist 013 - Ep 4 - Glam Tragique Part 2
A continuation of our discussion about Jobriath's music, this episode features a trio of his songs that other major artists have recorded. Two artists are prominent in this episode, Def Leppard and Kylie Minogue. Joe Elliot from Def Leppard was very connected to 70's glam as a youth and…

Beyond Radio Presents - Castlist 013 - Ep 3 - Glam Tragique Part 1
This episode focuses on early '70's glam, a few well-known artists, and an obscure one who has an amazing and crazy story behind him. The lead singer of one of the bands featured gets a lot more time on the clock than I expected but it is well deserved. There is a saxophone having an aneurism, a...
-
Beyond Radio Presents - Castlist 013 - Ep 2 - This Is The Place To Be
This episode continues the discussion of the Canadian band Mother Mother with the fun and playful side of the artist. I felt the song "The Stand" was a no-brainer for Jeff to enjoy and I was right. We also explore how their most streamed song came about 12 years after its release. We up the...
-
Beyond Radio Presents - Castlist 013 - Ep 1 - I've Got The Oh Yeahs, Oh Nos, Dystopia, and Alienation
This playlist starts with one of my favorite songs from 1974 that came to me while I was sleeping. The episode has a lot of energy, music spanning from the 60's through today, a couple of fun Uber stories, a French songstress, hardcore punk, and 3 versions of the same song (twice!). You'll also...

Beyond Radio Presents - Castlist 012 - Ep 3 - On The 3's, The Cat Empire and Toy Matinee
On this episode we explore an Australian band that came together over 20 years ago and a duo that produced one album in 1990. Jeff definitely had differing opinions on each. I find positive qualities from both artists.
-
Beyond Radio Presents - Castlist 012 - Ep 2 - On The 3's - Between a Hard Hard Place and a Rock
If you know where that lyric is from, I love you! This episode starts with another artist that we talk about their evolution. This band went on to be one of the premiere alt/dance acts of the last 40 years. The transition to the next song was a jarring one for Jeff (of course that was on purpose)...
-
Beyond Radio Presents - Castlist 012 - Ep 1 - On the 3's - Artist Evolution
I am dedicating this episode to my high school classmate Thomas Campbell who recently passed away. He was a huge music enthusiast and musician plus an occasional listener to the podcast who has corrected me on occasion (which I appreciated). We were not close in high school though if we had been…

Beyond Radio Presents - Castlist 011 - Ep 3 - What I Did Last Summer, Last Night
Wow this episode has a lot of stuff going on in it. We first explore the world of the song of the summer and an emerging trend associated with it. It is certainly adding an interesting wrinkle to the Pop universe. A viral video becomes part of that conversation, as does a wee bit of political...
-
Beyond Radio Presents - Castlist 011 - Ep 2 - What I Did Last Summer, The Morning After
This episode is nostalgia centric though it does stem from a fun summer story. There are lots of movie and television references in the episode as well. From the title, the Maureen McGovern song The Morning After leads us down a movie path and towards one of my favorite shows of all-time. Plus a...

Beyond Radio Presents - Castlist 010 - Ep 6 - Moms, Dads, Sarah, Christopher, and Survivor
This is a non-music related episode that was the beginning of a conversation that will be out later this summer. It's a bit of a therapy session with my new friends from Manic Bloom (though they feel like old friends). It was just what I needed today to get me back in the game.
-
Beyond Radio Presents - Castlist 010 - Ep 5 - I've Got A Bridge To Sell You, Part 2
We continue to explore the bridges in songs and start in a really fun place. Jeff's memory of the first song leads to a find in my music studio just to the left of where I was sitting. As we move along a number of my all-time favorites are explored, to varying affects on Jeff. As it should be.
-
Beyond Radio Presents - Castlist 005 - Ep 2 - Guster and All Time Faves
This is a slightly updated version of the podcast originally posted in April 2020. One of my faves. Lots of laugh and definitely emotional for me. We start by exploring Guster, past and present (and some meows for good measure) and then move into some of my favorite songs of all time. One of…

-
Beyond Radio Presents - Castlist 010 - Ep 4 - I've Got A Bridge To Sell You, Part 1
As the title suggests we start to explore the bridges in songs and this leads to a '70s band popping up again, a ghost singer (?), a '90s music magazine trend, and 2 of my favorite albums of all-time. I test Jeff's memory (some things click, others don't) and we end with an intense vocalist whose...
-
Beyond Radio Presents - Castlist 010 - Ep 3 - Manic Bloom Interview
This was the most gorgeous conversation with one of my favorite bands. If you haven't listened to the 2 part episode featuring the band ( episodes 5 and 6 of Castlist 009) this is a great introduction. It is a wonderful music therapy session filled with talk of the struggles bands go through, the...

Beyond Radio Presents - Castlist 010 - Ep 2 - The Search For A Higher Plane, Part 2
This episode starts with the flow-through between Queen's "Death On Two Legs" and Manic Bloom's "Push Off The Ground", a bit of a recap of the prior Manic Bloom songs we spoke about and the reveal of the connection to Wilder Woods from the last episode. We talk about the upcoming interview and…

Beyond Radio Presents - Castlist 010 - Ep 1 - The Search For A Higher Plane, Part 1

-
Beyond Radio Presents - Castlist 009 - Ep 4 - Retro Song Trilogy
This is a long episode but has 3 sections so easy to take a break between sections. The first section is a followup to our Hopeful Boy Pop episode where we re-visit previous artists and songs discussed while bringing in some new stuff as well. Through it we stumble upon a new trend, the sped up…
more -
Beyond Radio Presents - Castlist 009 - Ep 3 - Number One Contenders
In this episode I compare one of the biggest songs on my personal chart this year to the original version that was out in 2021. The contrast between the 2 versions is sharp. The discussion goes to songs that could take over at the top spot, some previous chart toppers and songs that missed…
more -
Beyond Radio Presents - Castlist 009 - Ep 2 - New For Jeff 2022
In this episode I present new songs to Jeff from artists he has enjoyed in the past, hoping they click with him. In the process it becomes evident that there is connective tissue between the selections that comes about through the research and the music angels that are always watching over me.
-
Beyond Radio Presents - Castlist 009 - Ep 1 - Super Quirky Cordiale
We veer out of Castlist 008 for a handful of episodes that hinge on recent developments. In this first episode I follow up on the concert that Jeff was going to see the last time we talked. Initailly I was going to I relate 2 other songs to the band Superorganism and we end up on a tangent right...

Beyond Radio Presents - Castlist 008 - Ep 12 - Music Party Recap 2022
In this episode we look back at my 39th Annual Music Party that happened at the end of June. It had been a long time since Jeff & his wife Jen were both at the party. We look back at the best songs of 21/22 and 1982 according to the participants. They did choose songs for the 1982 list but not…

Beyond Radio Presents - Castlist 008 - Ep 10 - Hopeful Boy Pop
This was such a fun episode. It was supposed to be the beginning of an episode that recaps this summer's music party but it became an entity unto itself. I present a number of songs that have impacted Pop radio in the States in recent months to Jeff, exploring a trend that I am seeing develop....
-
Beyond Radio Presents - Castlist 008 - Ep 9 - Gang Of Youths
This is an artist-centric episode though as has been typical lately, I have a song for Jeff to hear for the first time before we get into things, Stories about my Mom and my Dad fit nicely into the narrative. A couple of perennial favorites from past episodes show up in the discussion and we get…

Beyond Radio Presents - Castlist 008 - Ep 8 - The Boys of the 2010's Part 2
In the final discussion of our boy band arc of episodes there is actually a lot to unpack. New music from 5 Seconds of Summer and Harry Styles. How All Time Low found their biggest success 15 years into their career (and a wonderful coincidence that follows it). A boy band that has a connection…

Beyond Radio Presents - Castlist 008 - Ep 7 - The Boys of the 2010's Part 1
After a 2 month hiatus the cliffhanger is finally revealed. We really only focus on 2 bands in this episode but talk about influences, paying homage and sampling. We try to pinpoint the origin of something Jeff can't get out of his head, talk about college and in the end have to push off the...
-
Beyond Radio Presents - Castlist 008 - Ep 6 - Pop Punk and Big Hooks
As the boy band discussion continues we talk about a popular pop punk band of the aughts, an obscure band from Southern California and Boys who like Girls from Massachusetts. The mood shifts towards the end of the episode and we get a little '80s nostalgia thrown in.
