It was 65 years ago this month that the Everly Brothers signed a 10-year, $1 million deal with Warner Brothers Records following an incredible three-year run at tiny Cadence Records. It was one the first big money contracts for a rock and roll act, and their first two years provided an incredible return on investment for Warner. But 1962 brought a drought that effectively ended their incredible chart run and, as the brothers desperately tried to regain their chart footing, they were confounded by the seemingly endless onslaught of British Invasion artists. In his latest article for the Strange Brew, music historian Scott G. Shea talks about this time in the Everly Brothers’ long career and how their blend of perseverance and role as rock and roll influencers churned out a slew of incredible records.

Nick Marshall was not exactly your average twenty-one-year-old from New Jersey. After serving three years in prison for armed robbery, he was still fairly young upon his release, but wondered what kind of life he could lead as an ex-con. As he soon came to find, life on parole had its limits, but he was fortunate enough to have a salaried job, a roof over his head, and a car. Yet something still tugged at him: his yearning to be an artist. Aware of the immense time and effort it would take to fulfill such a dream, he gave up his safety net and took his place at the bottom of the totem pole in the hospitality industry. What Nick did not expect was for a series of jobs in bars and restaurants to catapult him into the exciting yet treacherous world of New York City nightlife. By connecting with all of the right movers, shakers, gatekeepers, and the like, he began to blaze a new trail. Before he knew it, he was a power player who had it all—or so he thought. He began to question if trips to Saint-Tropez, infinite freebies, and celebrity-like treatment were enough to let the dream that started it all take a backseat. Yet again, he found himself ready to make a major sacrifice. Try Again: An Ex-Con’s Path from Prison to Prosperity is the inspirational story of one man’s climb back into society as the woes of post-prison life kept kicking him down. It is a recount of the lessons he learned—how being blinded by the limelight cost him everything he worked so hard for, as well as his mental health and stability. Try Again won’t just speak to the formerly incarcerated; it is for anyone looking to start anew when it feels utterly impossible.

Television personality and founder of LA-based organic Italian food and accessories company, Pizza Girl, Caroline D'Amore ("The Hills: New Beginnings," "Keeping Up with the Kardashians," "Gordon Ramsay's Food Stars") is taking back control with her powerful new true crime series with iHeartPodcasts, the No. 1 podcast publisher globally according to Podtrac, "Once Upon a Con" premiers February 12, 2025, on the iHeartRadio app and everywhere podcasts are heard. The series chronicles D'Amore's transformation from victim to relentless crusader as she exposes David Bloom, the notorious and prolific fraudster. Produced by Alex Baskin's 32 Flavors-the creative force behind "The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills," "The Real Housewives of Orange County," "Vanderpump Rules," and "The Valley," among many others -and AYR Media ("Queen of the Con"; "Bitter Blood" and "Spy High," among many others), "Once Upon a Con" delivers gripping access to D'Amore's dramatic pursuit of justice, featuring never-before-seen footage of her high-stakes confrontation with Bloom that ultimately led to his arrest on multiple felony charges. In 2020, Bloom infiltrated the star-studded world of Hollywood's iconic Villa Carlotta, a prestigious haven for A-list creatives. Masquerading as a philanthropic billionaire with fabricated ties to top executives, Bloom orchestrated an elaborate scheme to defraud D'Amore and her business partners out of tens of thousands of dollars-and other victims out of significantly more. But Bloom didn't anticipate D'Amore's determination to fight back. Refusing to remain a victim, D'Amore launched her own investigation, uncovering decades of deceit that stretched back to Bloom's days as Manhattan's infamous "Wall Street Whiz Kid." The podcast reveals D'Amore's fearless pursuit of the truth, taking listeners step-by-step through the relentless investigation and dogged efforts that ultimately bring Bloom to justice. "'Once Upon a Con' isn't just about what happened to me-it's about exposing the manipulators who prey on trust and showing that even when you feel powerless, you can take the fight to those who think they're untouchable," says D'Amore. "Once Upon a Con" features exclusive interviews with Bloom's victims, including survivors from his earlier multi-million-dollar busts in Manhattan in the 1980s and 1990s, uncovering his long trail of fraud across Hollywood and Manhattan, and delivering shocking revelations about his tactics. With unprecedented access to the investigation, "Once Upon a Con" gives listeners a front-row seat to the dramatic takedown of one of Hollywood's most cunning predators, who now sits in a Los Angeles County prison waiting for trial.

Katie and Delaney, inseparable since childhood, find their paths diverging in their 30s. While Katie is happily committed and living with her boyfriend, Delaney is still single and living with a roommate. Despite the differences in their lives, their friendship is still a top priority. They've always been the most important person in each other's lives. That is, until Katie's boyfriend proposes. To soften the blow, Katie plans a nostalgic trip to their childhood beach town, intending to share the news in a familiar setting. But the journey takes unexpected turns, courtesy of a bizarre rental homeowner, a chance encounter with a former classmate, a bachelor party, and a few potential love interests. Caught in a whirlwind of emotions, Katie hesitates and withholds the news from Delaney, putting their lifelong friendship in peril. Funny, fresh, and full of heart, ADULT BEST FRIENDS is the first feature from filmmaking Delaney Buffett (director/co-writer/star) and Katie Corwin (co-writer/star). The pair drew upon their own decades-long friendship and brought together a close-knit crew and cast, that includes Zachary Quinto, Cazzie David, Mason Gooding, Casey Wilson, Owen Thiele, and Benjamin Norris, to capture the joy of growing up with a best friend - and the angst of potentially moving beyond them.

The Adventures of Jelly Bean and The Further Adventures of Jelly Bean are the stories of a fourth-grader who faces challenges that just about all children her age can recognize. Her parents don’t approve of her favorite friend in the whole world. She has trouble getting along with the brother who is closest in age to her. The uncle she loves so much is about to marry the most awful woman she could ever imagine, and the girl who used to be her best friend has turned on her. Jelly Bean faces these and other stumbling blocks, including: the difficulties in achieving and maintaining popularity and how important having certain friends should be to her; difficulties inherent in relationships with various friends and family members; and learning how to make decisions on her own. In these first two books of my middle-grade series, Jelly Bean comes to understand that much of life is trial and error, and that the only constant in life is that it is always changing.

"INEVITABLE is a comprehensive account of the greatest upheaval in the transportation industry since the invention of the internal combustion engine. One of the best automotive journalists in the world, Colias delivers an unvarnished retelling of the EV revolution, warts and all. Essential reading for everyone interested in the future of the car industry." - Sean McLain, reporter, Wall Street Journal The $2 trillion global automobile industry has long been dominated by its largest players: the GMs, Volkswagens, and Toyotas of the world. But, as Wall Street Journal reporter and veteran of the US automotive beat Mike Colias writes in the new book INEVITABLE: Inside the Messy, Unstoppable Transition to Electric Vehicles, the auto industry is at an inflection point. The rise of electric vehicles is radically transforming the industry and Colias shows how none of the major players were prepared. For the first time in living memory, startup auto manufacturers are gaining major market share, and Colias provides a dramatic insider account through the lenses of executives, entrepreneurs, engineers, car sales people and customers, of how EVs are upending the industry, transforming economies, and even reshaping the roles vehicles play in our lives. As Colias writes, fifteen years ago EVs were a novelty and no major car manufacturer was considering jumping into the field in any serious way. But a funny thing happened in the ensuing years: EVs started selling in numbers impossible to ignore, and those customers weren't buying Fords and Nissans but Teslas, Rivians and BYDs. And the behemoths didn't really catch on until the upstarts had a large head start. Big automakers are skilled at making adjustments and tweaks year over year, but as Colias writes, creating a successful manufacturing program for an all electric vehicle calls for agility and it isn't as simple as swapping out an internal combustion engine for an electric motor. The process actually requires different skill sets, new vehicle designs and a massive rewiring of their global supply chains.Colias's is a story of hubris, shortsightedness and inertia in which Big Auto executives were blindsided even though the rise of EVs-Tesla in particular-was happening right in front of their eyes. Colias takes readers inside the boardrooms where executives chasing Tesla battle over EV strategies; to the family-run car dealerships wrestling with the decision of whether to sell EVs-or sell their business; the battery factories where scientists try to pack ever more power into the same space; and to some of the countless independent component manufacturers dotting the midwest that have counted on Big Auto as a customer for generations and now face an uncertain future.In a conversation with Lem Yeung, who'd worked on internal combustion engines for Ford for three decades and elected to take the company's buyout offer, Colias reports that the engineer was reflective: The built-in advantages that the incumbent carmakers wielded for more than a century are disappearing as cars become less mechanical and more infused with complex software, Yeung warns. They are entering a race in which they're starting from behind, with companies that suffer none of their legacy drag. The upstarts are outmaneuvering the GMs and Volkswagens on lower-cost battery setups and consumer-friendly tech features. Thinking like a car company has flipped to become a disadvantage. 'I think all the barriers to entry have gone.'" Electric vehicles: Another executive order signed on Trump's first day in office targeted electric vehicles. A tax credit for people buying EVs was scrapped, and federal funds intended to help install charging stations were put on hold. While some funds that have been allocated for charging stations are still expected to be used, the moves are likely to slow the development of the electric vehicle industry in the United States, and help President Trump's ally, Tesla chief executive Elon Musk.
