The Madonna Get Together Podcast

Let’s get sticky and sweet as we round out our Hard Candy discussion by talking about, of course, the tour. We say what we like and do what we feel by pinpointing highlights and lowlights of the tour. Thank you to the ever amazing Stephen Andrews for making a special appearance on the show again.

There ain’t no time to lose and the time is right now as Stephen and I go on and on, just as the beat goes. Our love for Prince has us bond over the best name drop on a Madonna song and we also agree on an overlooked missing bonus track from this album. So, get down, beep beep and join us as we wrap up our discussion of M-Dolla’s Hard Candy album.

We’re gonna take you to the candy shop and miles away to discuss my least favorite album, but I brought a Madonna podcasting legend from The Immaculate Podcast, Stephen Andrews, to help be the voice of reason. We will go track by track and dive into each song selection and I get to tell you my disdain for Justin Timberlake. Come get stupid with us.

I’ve brought on an ICON, in more ways than one, to help me with this episode. Ron Radvinsky is a founding member of Madonna’s official fan club and fanzines “Like A Fanzine” and “ICON.” He shares his Madonna journey, his almost dance career after a dance audition for Blond Ambition, and his chance run-ins with the queen herself. Run also gets “vulgar” as we chat about Madonna’s grand re-entrance into the top 100 for the 5th decade with her Weeknd collaboration and his thoughts on the upcoming tour. Come sit at the “popular” table with us as we get together.

You’ll see, somehow, someday or perhaps already that Madonna’s use of background video screens for her tours have evolved, even if we go deeper and deeper back to The Virgin Tour and Who’s That Girl Tour. I welcome Beaureguarde Von Hoffman of the Von Hoffman Picture Company to talk me through some of our favorites that come alive for us. He also talks about his experience pitching a background video screen to Madonna’s team for the Madame X tour.

The night is young, and the show…well, you know the rest. We have disco fever as we discuss Madonna’s Confessions tour, with one of the best intros of all of her tours. Come on check it out with me and Rehan as we jump in the saddle and tell each other our favorite performances from each section.

Oopsie! We had an accident. Since we didn't discuss the Tokischa remix of Hung Up, nor the Blondish remix of Sorry, we have no regrets and we say why in this bonus episode of The Madonna Get Together. I get Rehan back on the borderline before they hang up so we can talk about these two additions to Madonna's TikTok era.

We haven't got much time to waste, so here is the conclusion to the Confessions on a Dancefloor discussion. Now we can tell you about the rise and the fall as we keep the fighting spirit to go through the rest of the tracks off of this dance masterpiece. The sound is still a little wonky (still waiting for someone who knows about sound to come up and speak to me).

It’s no illusion, we are getting together for the namesake of this podcast to discuss Confessions on a Dancefloor album. I really - really wanted to be with my friend and next guest, Rehan, for an in-person discussion, which I haven’t done since the first episode - and speaking of the first episode, the audio is giving very first episode vibes. We faced some tech issues, but we aren’t sorry for anything, just let it will be. Come get hung up with us in this latest episode and hear every little thing we say.

We are getting back into the groove for our season 3 opener and backing that up to the beat to catch up on all the Madonna news since the end of the last season. I welcome model, image consultant, and host of Idol Worship, Ruben Zambrano, to the podcast to talk about the Celebration tour, new music on streaming, Madonna's appearance on the Grammys (along with ageism & misogyny), and the phenomenal photo and video "Enlightenment" for Italian Vanity Fair.
