Before The Cheering Started with Budd MishkinBefore The Cheering Started with Budd MishkinPETER ASHER: A World With Love Of MusicSend us a textPeter Asher has been part of the music that has elated and sustained me for some 60 years.  The songs of Peter and Gordon as part of the 1960’s British Invasion still sound fresh and wonderful six decades later.  And the musicians he produced and managed, especially James Taylor and Linda Ronstadt, created the soundtrack of my life.  And Peter still has the touch, co-producing Barbra Streisand’s beautiful album of duets, “The Secret of Life: Partners, Volume Two.”Getting an opportunity to interview him before a live audience at Magical...2025-07-1245 minBefore The Cheering Started with Budd MishkinBefore The Cheering Started with Budd MishkinHARRY TEINOWITZ: Getting Another ShotSend us a textTalk to Harry Teinowitz for ten seconds and it’s easy to understand why he’s had a successful career in Chicago sports talk radio.  There’s a fun gift of gab, a solid sense of humor and a passionate love of sports.  He brought a lot of joy to Chicago sports fans.  But then came a DUI, rehab and a coming to terms with his alcohol problem.  The result? A play called “Another Shot” that is opening off Broadway in New York this fall.  Where once he provided laughs to his audience...2024-09-2734 minBefore The Cheering Started with Budd MishkinBefore The Cheering Started with Budd MishkinBEN MANKIEWICZ: For The Love Of Family And FilmSend us a textMany of us grow up in homes with high expectations, but perhaps not the burden of expectation that Ben Mankiewicz experienced.  His grandfather and great uncle were prominent in Hollywood, his father in the world of politics.  Ben long ago dreamed of being a baseball broadcaster.  Along the way, he worked in sports media, hosted an eclectic news broadcast in Miami and eventually moved to California where he went on scores of auditions and batted .000.  But much like in his beloved baseball, it only takes one.  At the audition for Turner Classic Movies (TCM...2024-09-1938 minBefore The Cheering Started with Budd MishkinBefore The Cheering Started with Budd MishkinFRANK RICH: From Ticket Taker To Critic To ProducerSend us a textYou never know what job you have that will teach you lessons that you’ll use decades later.  Growing up as a theater loving kid, Frank Rich got a dream job as a ticket taker in a theater in his hometown of Washington, D.C.  And he watched as shows were changed, rewritten, shortened and lengthened from night to night in preparation for Broadway.  What he observed and the lessons he learned served him well later as the New York Times drama critic and much later as an executive producer on the HBO serie...2024-09-1243 minBefore The Cheering Started with Budd MishkinBefore The Cheering Started with Budd MishkinLEN ELMORE: Balancing The Books And BallSend us a textFor much of his adult life as an athlete and attorney, Len Elmore has balanced academics and athletics.  That work continues to this day as a Senior Lecturer at Columbia University in the Sports Management program.  The balancing act began long ago growing up in New York City, then attending Power Memorial Academy, the University of Maryland, playing in the NBA, going to Harvard Law School, serving as an Assistant District Attorney in Brooklyn and beyond.   We are wowed by the big time nature of college sports and the gaud...2024-09-0438 minBefore The Cheering Started with Budd MishkinBefore The Cheering Started with Budd MishkinNick Lowe: Writing And Singing The Book, Part 2Send us a textNick Lowe has been writing and singing his songs for some 50 years.

But to steal a piece of wisdom from Rob himself, no one’s trajectory is a straight line.
