    EP 131 - Billy Joel On Late Night TV Part 1 (with Steve Mandel of The Tonight Show)
    Feb 11 2025
    Late night television has been an important showcase for musical talent for well over half a century. The casts and crews make producing these shows seem effortless. But the truth is that it takes split-second timing and a tight knit team to get each episode on the air. In this two-part series, we’re exploring Billy Joel’s late-night TV appearances from the mid 70s through the current decade. But before we dive deep into these performances, we’ll get a behind-the-scenes glimpse at the machinery behind the broadcasts. First up is our conversation with audio engineer and Roots music supervisor Steve Mandel. A longtime friend of the podcast, Steve has worked with the hip hop group The Roots since the mid-90s. He and the band have collaborated on nearly 3,000 episodes of Jimmy Fallon’s late-night talk shows over the past 16 years. In this episode, we explore the precise timing and careful choices that go into every episode. Steve also recounts his experiences meeting Billy the times he was a guest on the Tonight Show.

    EP 130 - Billy Joel Desert Island Tracks Vol. 2 (1980-1993)
    Jan 28 2025
    It's felt like seven years since we've been trapped on this desert island with only 12 Billy Joel songs to listen to. If you missed Part One of this series, Jack and I picked one song from each of Billy's studio pop albums that we would want if we were trapped on a desert island. So far, we've gone from 1971's Cold Spring Harbor to 52nd Street in 1978. Along the way, we picked up on songwriting motifs and lyrical themes that span Billy's catalog. Now, we're concluding our picks starting with Glass Houses in 1980 and continuing through 1993's River of Dreams.

    EP 129 - Billy Joel Desert Island Tracks Vol. 1 (1971-1978)
    Jan 14 2025
    What are the 12 Billy Joel songs you can't live without? That's what we are discussing over the next two episodes. We picked one track from each pop studio album that we would want if we were trapped on a desert island. Our choices were rarely the hits, and not necessarily our favorite go-to songs, either. Ultimately, the exercise revealed new insights into Billy's songwriting style and common themes throughout his catalog.
