Peter Frampton, Rock Hall Inductee!
Phil and David absolutely LOVE guitar god and rock legend Peter Frampton -- Do You Feel Like We Do? Celebrating his recent induction into the Rock n Roll Hall of Fame, David explains how he first came to meet Peter and then work with Frampton on 2014's acclaimed Grammy Salute to The Beatles for which Peter played guitar. Peter tells Phil and David about how David Bowie -- his childhood friend and a favorite art student of Peter's father -- had a tremendous impact on Peter's life and career. Peter discusses the good, bad & ugly of having a success as massive as the "Frampton Comes Alive!" album -- as well as his recent recording for Dolly Parton's upcoming "Rockstar" album. Peter also answers guest questions by his "Almost Famous" collaborator Nancy Wilson -- one from David son' s Alec about his experience making the famous and infamous "Sgt. Pepper" movie.

A Whole Lotta Life
This episode spans a timeline full of life and love. Yes everybody loves Phil but with David we get so naked. Not that we want to feed a naked Phil, mind you. Thank you, guys.
These two amazingly talented writers bring their craft to the table where we meet Donny Osmond. The idea is furtherest from in considering how these two would celebrate the 100 milestone. And yet this concept sums up this podcast. The sheer charm that these three share in hearing Donny’s stories is truly special. You gotta have a listen.
Please let this just be Phil’s show
David seems to have had quite the career that’s for certain. I don’t need to know about this fact every episode nor have him step on guest’s answers/not let them answer or just fumble and stumble around. Season 1 I was able to handle this but no mas. Sorry but have to say it as this is an annoyance every episode.
Your Donny Osmond interview was exceptional!
I am looking forward to downloading some more episodes!
