Welcome to That’s Entertainment! The place where legends don’t just visit… they pull up a chair, tell the truth, and sometimes… sing it.

Today, we welcome an artist whose voice doesn’t just fill a room — it transforms it. A voice that has travelled from the intimate jazz clubs of Toronto… to the bright lights of New York and Los Angeles… and into the hearts of audiences around the world.

You may know him as part of one of the most iconic vocal groups ever to come out of this country — a group that redefined what the human voice could do. As a member of The Nylons, he helped create a sound that was timeless, daring, and unmistakably cool.

But tonight is about the man behind that harmony.

Because after decades of chart-topping albums, standing ovations, and a career that continues to evolve in remarkable ways, he’s stepping into the spotlight in his most personal way yet.

His new show, Up On The Roof: An Evening with Micah Barnes, isn’t just a concert — it’s a conversation. One man. One piano. And a lifetime of stories told through song.

Audiences will hear the originals that defined his solo career… the jazz and blues standards that shaped his musical DNA… and yes, the songs that first made millions fall in love with that unmistakable sound.

Now, as he brings his Up On The Roof tour across the country — including right here in Alberta. 

In Calgary on March 7th at the Jazz Vocal Workshop, and March 8th at the Polaris Threatre in Rocky View County. 

Then Later in March, he’ll be in Edmonton on March 13th at the SING! Festival, and on the 15th of March at the  Indigenous Voices Master Class with Donita Large – Fringe Theatre Arts Barns, Edmonton. 

He’s inviting audiences into something rare: intimacy. Authenticity. And the chance to truly meet the artist behind the legend.

This is That’s Entertainment with the incredible Micah Barnes.

Ladies and gentlemen, trainers and casual button-mashers, welcome to a very special episode of That’s Entertainment with No, Not Them! — the only show bold enough to ask the questions no one’s been brave enough to face since 1996… like:“What is a Pokémon, really?”“Why do ten-year-olds keep getting sent into the wilderness with wild electric mice?”And of course — “Why can’t I fit more than six of them in my backpack?”That’s right! Today, Mike and I are diving Poké-Ball-first into the cultural phenomenon that turned our childhoods into a lifelong addiction to catching imaginary animals. From Japan to Johto, from Pikachu plushies to Pokémon GO-induced traffic accidents — we’re covering it all.And, we’ve got reason to celebrate — because the brand-new Nintendo Switch game Pokémon Z-A has dropped! The game that promises new adventures, new Pokémon, and the same excuse to ignore your real-life responsibilities for 300 more hours!We’ll explore how Pokémon went from a humble Game Boy cartridge to an empire of movies, memes, and more merch than the Vatican gift shop.And throughout the episode, we’ll attempt the impossible — to answer that eternal question: Who is the best Pokémon?Will it be the adorable Pikachu? The majestic Charizard? Or, let’s be honest… will it just be the one I picked randomly. We will answer all that and so poke-more, right now on That’s Entertainment. ************************************************* Support The Show Today: https://www.crossborderinterviews.ca/support-the-showJoin The Show: https://www.crossborderinterviews.ca/be-part-of-the-show ***************************************************Follow Us On Social Media: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/crossborderpodcast/Threads: https://www.threads.net/@crossborderpodcast Blusky: https://bsky.app/profile/crossbordernetwork.bsky.socialFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/CrossBorderInterviews/Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/company/crossborderinterviews/ Website: https://www.crossborderinterviews.ca/Thats Entertainment is Part of the Cross Border Network© 2025

Welcome to No Not Them!—the show that bravely asks, "Is this really the best we could do?" and answers, "Yes. Unfortunately."

I’m Chris Brown—not the dancer, not the singer, just a guy with strong opinions and a microphone no one asked me to use.

And joining me, as always, is a man whose accent makes him sound 20% smarter and 80% more suspicious—Mike Nichols!

Today’s menu of madness includes:

Tickle that, federal agents, Elmo’s social media meltdown

Colbert getting the boot

And Coldplay turning couple’s therapy into a concert performance..

Today on That’s Entertainment... we’re turning up the heat with a group that helped define an era of pop music and is now taking full control of their legacy.

With over 15 million albums sold worldwide, eight Billboard Top 40 hits, and harmonies that melted hearts from coast to coast to coast in Canada, and around the globe, 98° became the soundtrack of a generation. But now, they’re not just revisiting the past—they’re rewriting it.

The vocal powerhouse—Nick, Drew, Justin, and Jeff—are back with their brand-new album Full Circle, which came out in May.

It’s a bold new chapter: five brand-new songs and re-recordings of their biggest hits, finally giving them ownership of the music that made them global superstars.

And here’s the best part—98° is hitting the road, and they’re bringing the heat to Alberta! 

Catch them live in Calgary on July 25th and in Edmonton on July 27th as part of the epic K-Days celebration. It’s a tour stop you do not want to miss.

Up next, an exclusive one-on-one interview with the guys of 98°—we’re talking legacy, reinvention, and what it means to finally call their music their own. 

Stay tuned… As That’s Entertainment with 98 Degrees.*

Welcome to another edition of That’s Entertainment.As you have come to expect, I’m Chris Brown, and I don't dance or sing—I just judge choreography and vocal performances from the couch with Cheeto dust on my shirt. And joining me as always, is Mike NicholsWe’re digging through the sequinned performance of the 2025 Tony Awards.Then we head to the multiplex for the summer blockbuster season, where Marvel and DC are once again battling for your wallet, your attention, and the last two remaining original ideas. Marvel’s bringing Fantastic Four, while DC fires back with Superman. And finally, we’ve got summer recommendations. Movies, shows, books—yes, actual books—and a foolproof excuse to skip your cousin’s outdoor wedding. Hint: just say “I think I’m developing a one-man play.”***************************************************Follow Us On Social Media: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/crossborderpodcast/Threads: https://www.threads.net/@crossborderpodcast Blusky: https://bsky.app/profile/crossbordernetwork.bsky.socialFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/CrossBorderInterviews/Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/company/crossborderinterviews/ Website: https://www.crossborderinterviews.ca/That's Entertainment with No, Not Them is Part of the Cross Border Network© 2025

Welcome to another edition of That’s Entertainment, with Chris Brown and MIke NicholsToday on the show, we will be breaking down the age-old question as to whether you should judge a book by its cover. The new Minecraft Movie is a massive success financially, but universally panned when the trailer dropped last year. Are moviegoers too quick to judge based on trailers? Then we will be discussing TV networks giving the heave-ho to some of the shows and renewing others. And talking about any shows that were cancelled too soon? Or gone on too long? Then we promised last episode that we would break down the JUNO’s the Highs the Lows, and Anne Murray, being all Anne Murray. Then we will wrap up with a quick spotlight on what's coming up on Broadway, and if there are any shows that Mike is looking to take in this year. ***************************************************Follow Us On Social Media: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/crossborderpodcast/Threads: https://www.threads.net/@crossborderpodcast Blusky: https://bsky.app/profile/crossbordernetwork.bsky.socialFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/CrossBorderInterviews/Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/company/crossborderinterviews/ Website: https://www.crossborderinterviews.ca/That's Entertainment with No, Not Them is Part of the Cross Border Network© 2025

Good evening, music lovers, and welcome to That’s Entertainment! Today, we’ve got something special on the tracks—and I do mean tracks in every sense of the word! We are chatting with Vocalist for The Brother Bicker Band Jeremy Hrdlicka . Now, if you’re sitting there thinking, 'Hold on, didn't we already talk about the Brother Bicker Band's album Another Kind of Train back in 2023?'—well, guess what? You’re absolutely right. And we loved chatting with the band about that release. But here’s the kicker: Spectra Music Group— the indie powerhouse out of New York—loved the album so much, that they’ve signed the band and are giving Another Kind of Train a second life, this time with a fresh release on May 2nd, 2025.But this isn’t just a reissue—it’s a reintroduction. Think of it as the deluxe edition with a passport. Spectra’s getting the Brother Bicker Band on track for a much wider journey, heading straight into U.S. and European markets, and bringing their Alberta-born sound to the world stage.The new version of Another Kind of Train still features the original ten tracks recorded with Christian Stonehouse at OCL Studios—songs that were born out of years of live shows, grit, and that little thing called a global pandemic. But now, fans will also be treated to two brand-new additions: the hauntingly timely 'Take My Gun,' and a powerful cover of Whiskey Myers’ ‘Stone,’ recorded by Kurtis Schultz at Blue Willow Studios.And get this—the new 'Stone' features a showstopping collaboration with Calgary’s own REVV52, led by the brilliant John Morgan. Add in some of Canada’s best guest musicians like Mitch Jay, Brendan Waters, and drummers Darryl Swart and Matt Dawe, and you've got yourself an album that doesn’t just revisit the past—it redefines it.So buckle up, because we’re hopping aboard Another Kind of Train—and trust me, this ride is just getting started. Stay with us!*************************************************** Pre-Order Another Kind of Train:https://orcd.co/brotherbickerbandhttps://brotherbicker.com/*************************************************** Support The Show Today: https://www.crossborderinterviews.ca/support-the-showJoin The Show: https://www.crossborderinterviews.ca/be-part-of-the-show ***************************************************Follow Us On Social Media: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/crossborderpodcast/Threads: https://www.threads.net/@crossborderpodcast Blusky: https://bsky.app/profile/crossbordernetwork.bsky.socialFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/CrossBorderInterviews/Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/company/crossborderinterviews/ Website: https://www.crossborderinterviews.ca/Thats Entertainment is Part of the Cross Border Network© 2025
