Britta Phillips has maintained two very different careers for decades - one is all kitsch and the other has a ton of street cred. She starred in that kinda fun, but mostly bad 1988 Justine Bateman movie Satisfaction and was the singing voice for Jem ... more
Producer Paul O'Duffy may not have been the actual architect of the sophistopop movement in the UK in the late 80s, but he had a hand in popularizing it. The man helped shape the sound of five of the major players within the genre - Hipsway, Breathe,... more
Around the year 2000, keyboardist Jai Winding decided he didn't want to be a hugely successful musician anymore and traded in his rock star life for real estate. He made the right move for him, but boy was it fun while it lasted. Some of the collabor... more

The artists this guy gets on are fantastic w great things to say, but the interviewer himself is an absolute moron. He’s ignorant and insulting and too dumb to notice. Fortunately for him his guests are too gracious to point this out. Don’t know why these artists subject themselves to the humiliation of this podcast.
Great interview! DeLaughter IS a gift!!! Have seen The Spree twice and both times were fantastic! Now I live in DFW & have visited Good Records. Can’t wait to see their Christmas show & take my son. Thanks for a great episode!
Jon Lamoreax asks the burning questions most other journalists and podcasters are too afraid - and/or uninformed - to ask. With a wonderful bias toward obscure 80s musical artists and producers, The Hustle delivers in entertaining, surprising, and unique ways. Thanks for delivering a consistently great pod.
