What to expect

Music Tales / The Originals: Volume 1

Moby, the biggest selling electronica artist in history, ponders the question: Why did so many people hate his guts? Discussed: his surreal documentary Moby Doc, which covers his brutal childhood, his rise and fall from pop stardom, and the drugs and booze that nearly did him in.

Andrew interviews “Master of Chaos” music manager Allen Kovac, who shares all the grisly details of managing Mötley Crüe, Meatloaf, Duran Duran … and Richard Marx.

Andrew reignites his decades-simmering crush on Kristin Chenoweth, the diminutive Tony- and Emmy-winning performer with the ungodly soprano range, currently featured on Apple+’s Schmigadoon.

Miraculously, Andrew lures icon, 100 million+ record seller and five-time Grammy winner Dionne Warwick to the show. Warwick, the subject of the recent CNN Films documentary Dionne Warwick: Don’t Make Me Over, shares her signature BS-free takes on love and music.

We put author, actor, and E Streeter Stevie Van Zandt on the couch on the eve of Bruce Springsteen & The E Street Band’s 2023 world tour. Host and guest explore the meaning of failure and success. It gets a little raw.

Chaka Khan has long held the title of “Queen of Funk,” but after this appearance, shall also henceforth be known as the “Queen of Candor.” Khan, who recently turned seventy and celebrated fifty years in the music business, joins Andrew and gets a few things off her chest.

Scenes from a rock and roll marriage. In this super intimate episode, model and author Paulina Porizkova reveals everything you were ever curious to know about her marriage to The Cars’ Ric Ocasek. We’ll be breaking some news with this one.
