What do Bruno Mars, Flo Rida, Ke$ha & Selena Gomez have in common? They are just a few of the artists who have in common our guest, Aaron Bay-Schuck. Aaron is the President of A & R at Interscope Records and has signed and developed some of the biggest names in music.  He's been a co-writer on some of the biggest hits of the last five years. The crew discusses how Aaron found Bruno Mars and what goes into building the careers and the creative expressions of so many of our favorite artists.   Also, how is the music industry changing? Aaron grew up as the son of actor John Schuck and actress Susan Bay.  Bay then remarried, Leonard Nimoy.  So Aaron grew up as the step-son of Leonard Nimoy and talks about his step-dad and the family since Nimoy's passing. It's a great hour about music, creativity and a ride through what happens in the new world of the music business. The show starts with THE FAST 15: Political reporter and analyst Michael Shure owns the fact that he may be wrong about THE ELECTORAL COLLEGE and not just because of the election result. Heather Ankeny joins Mark Thompson for the conversation with AARON BAY-SCHUCK
