Today's Guest: John Doe, singer, co-founder, X, author, Under the Big Black Sun: A Personal History of L.A. Punk   Watch this exclusive Mr. Media interview with John Doe by clicking on the video player above!  Mr. Media is recorded live before a studio audience full of aging punks who no longer take pride in torn fishnet stockings and who are using safety pins in ways they never dreamed of in 1978 … in the NEW new media capital of the world… St. Petersburg, Florida! Under the Big Black Sun: A Personal History of L.A. Punk by John Doe with Tom DeSavia and Friends. Order your copy today by clicking on the book cover above! John Doe and Exene Cervenka probably never dreamed, when they met at a Venice, California, poetry workshop in 1976, that one day they would be regarded as the core of a musical movement that shook, stirred and ripped corporate rock. I didn’t say they ultimately prevented its rise – I wish they had – but as co-founders of the LA punk band X, they built one of the first bulwarks against the tide of homogenized rock ‘n’ roll. JOHN DOE podcast excerpt: "X — our music — was always accessible. We weren’t trying to piss people off; we just did it naturally. There was no ‘marketing’; the term barely existed. The way you were DIY in those days was you went out, met people, lived your life, did your thing. I have no regrets; that’s the way you get cancer." The Westerner by John Doe. Order or download your copy today by clicking on the CD cover above! And even if youth culture didn’t ultimately heed their warnings of what lay ahead, Doe and Cervenka left us a legacy of Americana, rockabilly and rawness that stands up to whatever today’s generation of next big things might offer. More Fun in the New World by X (Expanded and Remastered Edition). Order your copy today by clicking on the album cover above![ The LA punk scene – fortified with nutrients that included X, Black Flag, The Germs, The Blasters, Los Lobos, and yes, even The Go-Go’s – was a regional reflection of what was happening all over the world in the late ‘70s and early ‘80s. Manhattan had its Ramones, Television and the New York Dolls; London produced the Sex Pistols, The Clash and Madness. It was an era that captured what rock ‘n’ roll should be: revolutionary, off-putting, controversial, against-the-grain. JOHN DOE podcast excerpt: "(X's 2016 appearance on NPR's 'Fresh Air' with Terry Gross) was not the first time people have tried to explain X's harmony in somewhat strange or even a backhanded compliment. Exene didn't know traditional harmony. She would get to that at times, then she would stray. She just sang what she heard." Doe captures the LA punk sound in his new book, Under the Big Black Sun: A Personal History of L.A. Punk, which he wrote and edited with Tom DeSavia, and essays contributed by Henry Rollins of Black Flag, Jane Weidlin and Charlotte Caffrey of The Go-Gos, Dave Alvin of The Blasters, Robert Lopez – El Vez – of The Zeros, and his long-time musical partner and former domestic partner, Exene Cervenka. (And yes, I won’t miss an opportunity to point out that Exene grew up here in St. Petersburg.) The book is a great companion piece to Legs McNeil’s Please Kill Me: The Uncensored Oral History of Punk. In addition to his new book, Doe is promoting a new album, The Westerner, which vocals from Blondie’s Debbie Harry on the song “Go Baby Go.” Singing and Playing: John Doe & Exene Cervenka.

Key interview moments: • 4:14 After appearing on NPR’s “Fresh Air” with Terry Gross, who described X’s melodies as “being a little off” and that its notes “become flat in unusual places,” X co-founder John Doe shakes off the “backhanded compliment” and explains Exene Cervenka’s approach; • 20:00 Doe compares the nascent 1970s punk scenes in New York, London, and Los Angeles; • 37:30 It wasn’t that X didn’t want to be successful and commercial, Doe explains, it’s just the band didn’t fit well...

Today's Guest: Dave Thompson, author, The Rocky Horror Picture Show FAQ   Watch this exclusive Mr. Media interview with Dave Thompson by clicking on the video player above!  Mr. Media is recorded live before a studio audience full of Riff-Raffs, Magentas, Columbias, Brads and Janets – dammit! – far more than one tiny living room can possibly contain… in the NEW new media capital of the world… St. Petersburg, Florida! The Rocky Horror Picture Show FAQ by Dave Thompson, Mr. Media Interviews   The Rocky Horror Picture Show. Order your copy today by clicking on the DVD cover above! I couldn’t begin to count the number of times I’ve seen The Rocky Horror Picture Show on the big screen. It’s a lot. DAVE THOMPSON podcast excerpt: "I first saw 'Rocky Horror' at a theatre in Chelsea when I was 13. It stuck with me ever since and its always been on my mind that I would love to tell the whole story and see where it goes. Finally, I did" That’s because, in college, I worked at the Royal Park Cinemas 4 in Gainesville, Florida, and every Friday and Saturday night, it was all hands on deck come 11 p.m. as hundreds of cosplayers – not that we called them that in 1979 – lined up for admission to the greatest midnight show in town, The Rocky Horror Picture Show. Rocky Horror Picture Show - Dr. Frank N Furter by FunKo. Order yours today by clicking on the action figure above! I was the guy at the door tearing tickets – and, occasionally, the projectionist, concessionist or ticket seller – seeing it all. Honestly, my young mind wasn’t ready for it then and I’m not sure I can wrap my adult brain around it any better now, in 2016. The Rocky Horror Picture Show was an abject failure in its original theatrical release, but one that found a second life by literally creating a midnight circuit around the globe. It spawned multi-generational fans who dress up as their favorite characters, shout obscenities at the screen, act out the musical numbers, know every word by heart, and, occasionally, get drunk and screw right there in the theater. (We minimu-wage employees found the empty liquor bottles and used condoms—always in close proximity—on the floor afterward to prove it.) The Rocky Horror Picture Show is popular around the world. DAVE THOMPSON podcast excerpt: "What this book brings to the table is an appreciation of the cultural impact of 'The Rocky Horror Picture Show,' not only in the US but elsewhere." What many people don’t know is that while the movie gets all the attention, it started life four decades ago as a British theatrical production in Chelsea, and endures today, all around the world. Dave Thompson, author of more than 100 books on rock ‘n’ roll and pop culture including biographies of David Bowie, Robert Plant and Kurt Cobain, has produced The Rocky Horror Picture Show FAQ, easily one of the most definitive tomes on the cult classic. Key interview moments: • 3:45 Author Dave Thompson explains what motivated him to tell the entire story of The Rocky Horror Picture Show; • 16:30 Rocky Horror's lasting impact goes far beyond British or US borders; • 32:40 Thompson reveals that, as teens, he and his girlfriend "went through a Magenta and Riff-Raff stage."

Rydell High, that is – the name of the school where Danny Zuko and Sandy reunite, where the T-Birds and the Pink Ladies rule the roost. As many times I have watched that movie over the years, it never clicked that calling the fictional institution “Rydell High School” was a tribute to America’s most famous Rydell – Bobby. BOBBY RYDELL podcast excerpt: "When I was with Mr. Sinatra at the Copacabana for the first time and he said, 'What do you drink, Robert?' I said, 'C-C-Coke.' I figured if I said, 'Scotch and water,' I'd get smacked in the face, y'know?" Pretty cool – even if it was his pal Frankie Avalon who played the film’s Teen Angel, not him. After all, South Philly’s gift to teen pop and adult cool, Bobby Rydell, has enjoyed more than his share of fame and fortune. There were the hits, none bigger than “Volare.” And, of course, co-starring in the film version of Bye Bye Birdie with Dick Van Dyke and Ann-Margaret.

Thirty years ago, I reviewed his “Golden Boys of Bandstand” tour appearance with Fabian and Frankie Avalon at the old Bayfront Center Theater here in St. Petersburg, Florida. I remember going in and thinking Fabian and Frankie were likely the real stars. But then along came too-cool-for-school Bobby Rydell, who blew the audience away with his pipes. This is the rare case of the dropout who deserves his own high school.

"First Impressions with Dana Carvey" When Rachel Butera appeared on the TV show “America’s Got Talent” in 2014, the man who declared himself “America’s Judge” had to disqualify himself from voting on the impressionist’s talent because he was the one who already put her on the map. So, after she squeezed Wanda Sykes, Rosie O’Donnell, Whoopie Goldberg and Joan Rivers into 90 seconds of vocal magic, there was only one thing that Howard Stern, the King of All Media, could say to her: “You’re somebody I believe in… I’m proud of you.” RACHEL BUTERA podcast excerpt: "For people who know the Howard Stern Show, I competed in the 2010 Staff Impressions Contest. I did Tracey Millman, who used to work on the show and she used to call everybody a 'douche.' And Little Lupe, the porn star. And Underdog Woman, the woman who wears the cape and dances around in parades like Underdog." Rachel’s comedy and impressions do her Jersey heritage proud – the Bloomfield native lets her characters rip, both in language and tone. Comedian Rachel Butera In addition to working as a standup and frequent TV and radio guest, she also has a growing body of work in commercials and cartoons, which makes sense when you experience the full range of her voices. This summer, Rachel will appear on the new USA Network comedy competition series “First Impressions,” starring Dana Carvey and hosted by Freddie Prinze, Jr. It’s a funny show, populated by impressionists, and airs Tuesdays at 10:30 p.m. RACHEL BUTERA podcast excerpt: "Being on 'First Impressions' was fun but it was nerve-wracking because it was all improv! I'm not that comfortable at improv. I like to write things out, so I was really nervous. But it was super-fun. And Dana Carvey was so sweet!"

[ White Ghost: A Graham Gage Thriller by Steven Gore. Order now by clicking on the book cover above! Whether San Francisco private eye Graham Gage solves his latest case or not, his odds of lining up his next one are looking pretty thin. Graham Gage has non-Hodgkins lymphoma. Cancer. And it’s killing him. STEVEN GORE podcast excerpt: “Graham Gage is more cerebral, more analytical (than Harlan Donnally). I think that made him a better character for this subject (coping with a late stage cancer diagnosis).” Gage, the hard-working, world-traveling, great-friend-to-have-in-a-crisis hero of three previous novels by Steven Gore, stands tall in his fourth thrilling adventure story, White Ghost. But is it his last hurrah? Order Final Target by Steven Gore from Amazon.com by clicking on the book cover above! I’m not tellin’. But what I will share – and what Gore himself will likely describe in moments – is that Gage’s illness came to him organically. That’s right – author Gore had it first. But Gore, a real American character, has kept his cancer at arm’s reach for 15 years. I’m not sure the same can be said about Gage. Mostly because I haven’t read to the end yet. I didn’t want to spoil the conclusion by accident for anyone. Order Power Blind: A Graham Gage Thriller by Steven Gore from Amazon.com by clicking on the book cover above! STEVEN GORE podcast excerpt: "Some novelists rely too much on superpowers. The perfect memory or perfect recall. Nobody has that." White Ghost is full of globe-trotting, heroin-smuggling, chemotherapy-laced Gage intrigue. Steven Gore has become one of my favorite American novelists, a point I can prove by saying this is his fifth appearance on Mr. Media, tying him overall with only sportswriter Peter Golenbock. That’s how much I like his work.
