We’re back from a quick hiatus (I turned 40—milestone unlocked!) and covering a lot of pop culture ground with DJ John Michael. This episode, we spotlight an underrated Michael Jackson deep cut, give Traci Lords’ “Control” its overdue flowers, and shout out Bradley Stern. We unpack the drama around William Orbit and Madonna’s “Veronica Electronica,” talk DJ John Michael’s Pride Ride with Cody Rigsby, and dig into some standout tracks in his mix, including Chris Lake’s remix of Kylie Minogue’s “In Your Arms” and Barry Harris & Pepper Mashay’s “Dive in the Pool.” Plus, I open up about his DJ days, we get nostalgic over Wild Orchid’s unreleased Fire album, and show some love to the HQ2 Club Mix of Toni Braxton’s “Spanish Guitar.”
