Stephanie & Stephanie Talk Tunes

In this episode, we're talking about the ultimate influencer (before influencers were even a thing)! Are you a fan of Morrissey? How about George Strait? We're talking about someone who has heavily influenced both artists who you may not have expected --- Vicente Fernández. Vicente, who passed in December, was a beloved multiplatinum recording artist, actor, and film producer whose career spanned a number of decades.  Join us as we speak about his classic "Volver Volver," what Morrissey "borrowed" musically and stylistically from Vicente, and the memories we attach to the musical culture he created. We GUARANTEE you'll learn something today. Enjoying the show? Be sure to tap 5 stars on Spotify. Appreciate you, Talk Tuners! Proud member of Pantheon Podcasts. Learn more about your ad choices.

It's about time for a Top Gun revamp, and it's hard not to think of the band Berlin's musical contribution to the soundtrack with "Take My Breath Away." But what about their other hits? We're talking about Berlin's "The Metro" in this episode, including where in the world they intended to set the song, what it was like filming the music video, and the funny memories we associate with the music. On the way, we talk about music and movement (a heavy metal yoga or punk rope class, anyone?), including the objectively best genres to work out to. We also shout out to some great reviews from Talk Tuners! Episode sponsored by BetterHelp. Proud member of Pantheon Podcasts. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Co-host Stephanie Myers has long considered herself a Meat Loaf superfan -- she saw him in concert 13 times, has every album, and has seen all his movies. After his tragic Jan. 20 passing, she's looking back on lots of amazing memories, ranging from meeting him after a show to interviewing him for an article. What she's sharing here today are not only her stories and memories connected to his music and legacy, but also the previously unreleased audio from that 2010 interview, shortly after the release of his album "Hang Cool Teddy Bear." Meat was his usual warm self in this interview, and we want to share that side of him with you on this episode. Meat talks with Stephanie about the album, touring, the music industry, and even the music he enjoyed at the time (including Foo Fighters/Dave Grohl and Kings of Leon). The Stephanies hope you enjoy it. Rest well, Meat. Proud member of Pantheon Podcasts. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Look what the cat dragged in -- the final episode of season 1, which is all about our memories and stories connected to Poison's "Talk Dirty to Me"! We talk about the surprising history of the song, and why our memories of this song are forever tied to the to the NYC karaoke scene (Sing Sing, anyone?). You'll also hear about the history of glam rock and how Poison is a rightful heir to the genre. We'll be back for season 2 on Jan. 5!
