A funny and informative podcast discussing every Billy Joel song from A to Z.

I’m Elon Altman — and I’m Dave Juskow — and this is the Billy Joel A to Z Podcast. We’re two comedians who love Billy Joel. We enjoy praising his great songs and ripping on, well, you know, “All You Wanna Do is Dance” 😉

We are going to review and talk about every song Billy Joel has ever written. We had the idea to do this podcast because we wanted to talk about “Zanzibar,” but, unfortunately we decided to go through Billy Joel’s catalog alphabetically, so expect our “Zanzibar” discussion in two years. Every episode we do a deep dive into a particular song. We talk rankings, make fun of Billy’s hilarious music videos, tell funny stories, and do trivia and song parodies too.

So join us on this fun journey with new song episodes every Tuesday.

Some of our research and content comes from a terrific site called – https://www.onefinalserenade.com/

Every week I choose a song from the 50s through the 80s and dive into its history, the story behind the song and other items of interest. Find more stuff at www.howgooditis.com John Hall has been around the block a few times, and he’s not finished traveling. In fact, when he and I chatted via Skype a short time ago, he was in the middle of a move from New York to Tennessee, and making that move in between gigs for both his solo shows and with the band that cemented his position in the Rock and Roll firmament, Orleans. In this episode we talk about the early days of his career, including how a couple of Orleans’ first few hits came to be. We also get into his time away from the band, working on solo projects and how that turned into dedicating himself to environmental causes. And how that, in turn, provided the impetus for him to embark on a political career for several years. He managed to sponsor some legislation that not only received vocal bipartisan support, it actually passed with a bipartisan vote. It was a pretty significant piece of law, and he’ll tell you about it during the show. After a health scare, John returned to playing music, both with Orlans and with his solo projects. He chronicled his journey in a book called Still the One: A Rock and Roll Journey to Congress and Back a couple of years ago, and this past year he released a solo album called Reclaiming My Time. (These are Amazon links but I don’t get affiliate money for them.) And during the interview he also talks about a special project that Orleans is working on, which will be coming out in the fall. During the interview, I made mention of Orleans performing “Dancing in the Moonlight” and mistakenly said I thought the clip was from the late 70s, when they first covered it as the title track for an album. In fact, that performance was from 2006 and I present it here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_7QMsALoZMQ&ab_channel=JohnMarsden Sorry, no transcript for this episode.

Connecting the Classics is a weekly competitive radio hour, in which hosts Lee Robinson and Will Hagle connect two classic albums using tangential music references, Kevin Bacon style. Each week, Lee picks an album and Will picks an album. They play songs from their chosen albums and discuss them, then weave webs using other songs and artists, resulting in six songs of separation (Kevin Bacon style). Points are awarded for good connections but the points don’t matter (Whose Line Is It Anyway style).

Discover the music of Igor Stravinsky, one of the 20th century’s most important creative figures, in a series of five podcasts from his publisher Boosey & Hawkes. Jonathan Cross reassesses Stravinsky’s achievement, 50 years after the composer’s death, with a selection of musical examples illustrating the rich variety of his works. Stravinsky’s deep fascination with time and rhythm is explained and the podcasts explore his interests ranging across art, literature, myth, faith, dance and jazz. We join the composer’s journey, from 19th century Russian romanticism, through a sequence of pioneering ballets and a new look at classical traditions in the 1920s and 30s, to a radical post-war reinvention in the USA. Stravinsky’s legacy is reassessed and his complex connections with other classical composers is charted throughout his lifetime and beyond.

If you would like to see a specific topic tell us and we will do our best to talk about it; we always welcome feedback from our community of Educated Oxys.New episodes every Monday at 8 AM! A Best of All Time Show Hello, Educated Oxys “The Boys” premiered in 2019 on Amazon Prime after being in development hell for eleven years. Amazon was so confident in the show, it actually renewed it for a second season even before it premiered. However, this amazing show almost didn’t happen. As the title suggests the comic was canceled by DC after only six issues for poking too much fun at their titular superheroes. Luckily every other publisher was ready with an offer to bring the two creators into their fold. If you enjoy this episode make sure to like, share, subscribe, or leave us a nice review, and keep on learning Educated Oxys!

It’s One For The Money, Two For The Show, Three To Get Ready, Now Go, Cat, Go! We’re putting on our finest Blue Suede Shoes this week and talking about the self-titled 1956 debut record of the King Of Rock And Roll himself, Elvis Presley! We’ll talk about how this small-town Mississippi boy came to be one of music’s most influential superstars and dig into hit songs like Tutti Frutti, I Got A Woman, and Money Honey (some of the most highly acclaimed songs of all time)! From his Graceland home to his chimpanzee to his untimely death, we still barely scratch the surface of the legend in this episode. Also… did you know Elvis was a law enforcement officer?
