This is one of those Up+Adam episodes you remember. When a guest like David Foster joins the show, you know you're in for something special. Sixteen Grammys. A career that’s defined the sound of entire generations. And now? He’s scoring Broadway. This is more than a cool conversation. It’s a front-row seat to one of music’s greatest living legends.

What happens when a hitmaker steps into the world of Broadway? You get BOOP! The Musical, a lush, cinematic journey through the world of the iconic Betty Boop, composed by Foster himself. In this episode, Adam connects with the icon over the phone to talk about what made BOOP! one of the most personally satisfying projects of his career, how he approached crafting timeless music you can’t pin to an era, and the magic of working with a full Broadway cast.



They also dive into Foster’s enduring love for R&B, shouting out All-4-One and the unforgettable harmonies of the 90s, and what still keeps “The Hitman” hungry after decades at the top. Plus, a preview of his genre-blending summer tour with trumpet phenom Chris Botti, featuring Katharine McPhee.
