    Ryan Sinn - Punk Rock Bassist (The Distillers / Former Angels & Airwaves)
    Apr 13 2026
    Ryan Sinn
    Take a walk with me down Fascination Street as I get to know Ryan Sinn. Ryan Sinnott is the bass player for the pop punk band The Distillers, and the founding bass player for the pop punk band Angels & Airwaves. In this episode, we chat about how he came to be a bass player in the first place, and how important it is to him to maintain the structure of the role of a bass player. We talk about the fancy flourishes and fills that some bass players get overly enthusiastic about, and how there can only be one Les Claypool! As Ryan is bound by an NDA, he cannot really discuss his time with Angels & Airwaves; so instead, I tell him about the first time I heard that debut album. It was a magical experience for me and one that I remember to this day. Next, we dive into where I first heard his band The Distillers, and how he came to be part of that project. He does let me play that first song by The Distillers that caught my attention (thank you Ryan). Ryan is a certified audio engineer, and he does explain why he felt the need to go that route, and he gives some less expensive shortcut tips for anyone out there who wants to go to audio engineering school. Lastly, we discuss some of the interesting paydays that come along with songs being selected for video games. The Distillers had a song on the video game Tony Hawk Pro Skater 4. Follow Ryan and follow The Distillers everywhere and tell Ryan you heard him on Fascination Street Podcast!

  • Throwback: Don McLean - Music Legend / American Icon (American Pie)

    Throwback: Don McLean - Music Legend / American Icon (American Pie)
    Apr 9 2026
    Hey Streetwalkers. This is a throwback episode with American music icon Don McLean. Don's first appearance on the show was 8.13.21 It was such a compelling & fun episode, l decided it needed to be re-visited! Enjoy this throwback episode, tell a friend, and thanks for listening!

    Don McLean
    Take a walk with me down Fascination Street as I get to know Don McLean. Legendary singer / songwriter; Don is most known for his super smash hit AMERICAN PIE, which was released FIFTY YEARS AGO this year! In this episode, Don and I chat about: some of his songs, his new and upcoming projects, including: a new album of originals, a new album of covers, a new documentary, a play, a movie, and a new children's book called "American Pie: A Fable" which drops in October. Then he tells us about the true story behind the hit song "Killing Me Softly"; which is not his song, but has a very interesting connection that I bet you didn't know about. Don was kind enough to let me play some of his classic songs during this episode, as well as one of the covers off of his new album of covers called "Still Playin Favorites". Be sure to check out his website for upcoming tour dates (covid permitting). Don McLean is a legend, a brilliant poet and songwriter; but more importantly, he was a super king and generous to me! Enjoy this conversation with a LEGEND. Follow Don on social media: Twit: @DonMcLean Insta: @TheDonMcLean FB: Don McLean (Musician) Website: DonMcLean.com

    J.R. Stokes Returns! - Filmmaker (Beautiful, Pam)
    Apr 6 2026
    J.R. Stokes Returns!
    Take a walk with me down Fascination Street as I get to know even more about J.R. Stokes. J.R.'s first appearance on the show was March 24, 2025. In that episode, we did the whole life story thing; so we don't really do that this time. In this episode, we chat about what he has been up to since we last spoke. J.R. has just released his second feature film. It is called 'Beautiful, Pam' and can be seen on his You Tube channel FOR FREE. We talk about what this film is about, who he made it for, and what he hopes to get from making and releasing it. I grill him on WHY it is free, just like his previous film 'Edge X'. J.R. explains the plot of the film (no spoilers), and we discuss some of the actors involved, and how they were an integral part of the story telling process. We also cover some of his inspirations, and why he thanks them specifically in the closing credits of this new feature. Lastly, I argue with him about how this film should be seen. There is an offer in here where you can have the physical DVD sent to you FOR FREE. Follow J.R. and go watch this film!
