  • Manfred brings the Cool!

    I save these podcasts up so I can listen to them in bunches when I have long travel times in my car or on planes. They are never short on "a-ha!" moments or laughs. If you've always wanted to be a "fly on the wall" in the studio during the creation of your favorite songs by your favorite artists, this is as close as it comes. The dulcet tones of show host the Mighty Manfred (lead singer of garage-rock band The Woggles) makes you feel like he's sitting right beside you in your car with whoever... more

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

16: Courtney Hadwin: Coolest Conversation 11/24/25
Q: So you have this Jagged single that came out last fall. And it seems like that's incorporated in the album just sort of as an intro, right at the beginning. But the song itself isn't on there. Why?
Courtney explains that Jagged was about being uniquely yourself and influenced the album, but it didn't fit the album's vibe, so it serves as an intro instead.
16: Courtney Hadwin: Coolest Conversation 11/24/25
Q: Did any of that experience, how did that experience kind of like influence the album either creatively or logistically?
Courtney mentions that it didn't influence the album directly, but it was a significant period of her life that shaped her into who she is now.
14: Glenn Page: Coolest Conversation 11/14/25
Q: Can you tell me about the inspiration for your song Misty Medway?
The song is partly a celebration of my home, inspired by a beautiful scene I witnessed by the Medway river, and also reflects a difficult personal time after my mother's passing.
14: Glenn Page: Coolest Conversation 11/14/25
Q: What accounts for the vibrant music scene in Medway?
It's a small interconnected group that has been making music over time, and the honest, sometimes rough feedback drives artists to be genuine and energetic.
13: Bob Ezrin: Coolest Conversation 10/27/25
Q: What are the good and bad things that have happened in the music industry since the '70s?
Ezrin emphasizes the democratization of music production tools as a positive but also expresses concern about a flood of mediocrity resulting from everyone having access to these tools.
