Where's that f'n sound coming from? Preston & Steve Sound Clip Origins

Last time we talked to Daughtry was back in November, when he stopped by the Camp Out For Hunger to promote a show in Atlantic City. This past Friday, Chris and guitarist Brian Craddock stopped by the Preston & Steve studio to promote a new song and their show in Atlantic City that night with Breaking Benjamin.

They started off with  a quick  hello and then got right into rocking, because Chris wanted to make sure he wouldn’t lose his voice during the performance so early in the morning. The first song was their brand new song “Pieces”, which was released earlier that morning. They followed  that up with their 2021 hit “Heavy Is The Crown”. Preston and Steve were blown away with how "un-freaking-real" Chris's voice is, especially so early after performing the night before.

After the two songs  Chris and Brian chatted with Preston & Steve. They talked about Chris finding his voice and realizing he had something with it,  the potential of being burnt out by his own music while creating it, and the car/headphone test with new music. They chat about rolling up like a baller in his tour bus, working out on the road in hotel gyms, and being star struck with celebrities.

Brian tells a great story of the time he met Don Henley at a Grammy's after party, where he might have "had a few wobbly pops."

He also expands on his time on American Idol and how it opened all the doors for his career but also hindered (in his mind) his credibility to rock radio in the start.

Daughtry Performs New Song for P&S

"Celebrity Jeopardy!" Million Dollar Winner, Lisa Ann Walter, checks in with The Preston & Steve Show

From Parent Trap to winning one million dollars for charity on Celebrity Jeopardy!, star of Abbott Elementary, Lisa Ann Walter graced the airwaves this morning.

We flooded the phone line with congratulatory praise, but Lisa was more than excited to tell us about her nerves going into last night's big show.

Anxiety levels were running high on the night of filming. We learned that while pressing the button early didn't affect her score, Lisa did admit to sitting out on questions she could confidently answer.

The shining moment of the night came when answering a question about Villanova University. Lisa whipped out the accent she perfected on screen so many years ago and answered/asked, “Wut es Phil-uh-delfia.” Lemme tell ya, that jawn was on point.

If you are not familiar with the format of Celebrity Jeopardy!, the famous contestants faceoff in a series of tournaments, then the top three faceoff in the finals. This year is came down to CBS Sunday Mornings’ correspondent Mo Rocca, sports commentator, Katie Nolan and of course, the inevitable champion.

The million dollar prize is heading to an organization close to Lisa’s heart. She proudly chose the Entertainment Community Fund as the recipient of her prize winnings. The money will be going to actors and writers affected by the Hollywood strike.  

On the big night of the primetime debut of the show, Lisa Ann hosted a watch party with family and friends. Spoiler alert- she already knew she friggin won!

It was a short check before hitting the hair and make-up trailer on set. Oh, yeah, “Abbott Elementary” is back filming. Season 3 debuts February 7th on ABC.

Lisa Ann Walter's Surprise Call Into Preston & Steve

How did an article in the Entertainment Report turn into one of the greatest calls Preston & Steve have ever received?  Honestly, we aren’t quite sure either, but we are going try to unpack this segment of our show. 

As Preston went through the daily Entertainment Report, he began to read that a few of Lizzo’s ex backup dancers are suing for sexual harassment charges. One dancer says that Lizzo pressured her to touch a nude performer at a club in Amsterdam. The lawsuit details different features of the bar, including its banana theme and nudity. None of it has been confirmed. 

That was until Mike called in to share that he had been to that bar in Amsterdam. He went on to give many details, maybe a few too many details, about “Bananenbar”. 

He explained that the strip bar was exactly how the women in the case explained it: lots of nudity, lots of drinking, and lots of bananas. He and his brothers were in town to see a Ween concert, but boy, did they see a lot more than that. 

For your sake, we won’t get into the nitty gritty details. But if you want to hear more about what this bar really offered, you can check out clips of phone.

Lizzo + Mike's Amsterdam strip club story

We at The Preston & Steve Show got to talk to one of the bands set to be at the always-glorious MMRBQ and Preston’s favorite modern band in the world: Larkin Poe! 

Rebecca and Megan Lovell’s live performance in the studio this past fall still sticks with us, mainly because that is when they debuted their song “Strike Gold.” Our assistant producer Connor recently saw them live, and he loved the show. Rebecca and Megan had a lot of fun at it as well. They cannot wait to come back to Philadelphia, especially in September for the MMRBQ. 

Having come up in the bluegrass scene, the sisters love playing festivals. There is a lot of collaboration and jamming at bluegrass festivals, which is a sight you don’t often see with rock ones. However, we and the sisters hope that can change with the MMRBQ. Seeing Rebecca sing with Billy Idol would be quite a sight, but we want to see her harmonize the Safelite jingle with Steve and Casey while Preston plays drums. 

We did get to talk with the sisters about their most recent album, Blood Harmony. Preston found that the album has a much larger sound compared to the previous ones, and according to Rebecca, that’s ironically from stripping down the music. By being on the road, Larkin Poe has gotten comfortable as a four-piece band, which translated into the studio with them avoiding the layering of guitars and vocals on Blood Harmony. 

It turns out, the sisters have a very close relationship with Elvis Costello. They met at a musical event, and he has since become a great mentor to them. He was the one who taught them not to simplify themselves or confine their music to a box. He believes that artists should curate the art they are passionate about, and, in turn, fans will respond with love. 

Megan and Rebecca recently made their television debut on Jimmy Kimmel Live!, and Preston was very happy about one of their song choices. They played “Bad Spell,” a song he describes as “stanky.” That is intended as a compliment! 

The sisters are also close to WMMR’s resident vampire Jacky Bam Bam. He has their personal cell numbers, and they can confirm what we have always known about him. They called him “one of the most precious of all the rock ‘n roll angels.” 

Thanks to Rebecca and Megan for having a chat with us. We look forward to seeing them rock the stage at MMRBQ in September!

Straight from the MMRBQ '23 Lineup: Larkin Poe

What do CaseyBoy and Brandon Marsh have in common? They both have a fear of sharks. Well, not so much a fear, more of a respect. The open water is where the sharks live and there’s no reason to visit them home.

That conversation was one of the many highlights of our Spring Training conversation with the Phillies Outfielder.

First and foremost, we talked about last season. Brandon said that some of his best moments of his life spent on the baseball field happened last fall. This team wants to run October back. (woo!)

Preston found a beautiful way to lead that into a hair conversation. We were all confused at first, but Preston was courageous enough to admit it. Through the laughter, Brandon sniffed a couple of stands and confirmed that it is clean today and smells lovely!

What was it like for Brandon to join the Phillies at the deadline? He was super nervous because he only knew one player. But that went away quickly. He’s now a guy from Georgia who uses the word “jawn”.

Back to the fear of sea animals. Casey shared his plan to eradicate sharks by lure them in with possums that have grenades inside them. Brandon’s on board. What about gators? Same. He saw mini gators while playing mini golf.

Ready to love Brandon Marsh even more? He grew up as a Braves fan, but told us how much he loved hitting a homer against them. He loves that Philly as a city is a harsh critic because he has a football mentality when it comes to playing.

Oh, and if you need more hair care tips, Kathy’s got you.

Brandon Marsh at Spring Training

Hawaiian shirts are a regular fixture of Charlie Manuel’s wardrobe. They fit his vibe perfectly since he spends much of his year in Florida. It was during our conversation with the World Series winning Manager that he and his wife, Missy, argue over colors. He prefers the monochrome color pallets, while she likes to pick out brighter patterns for him to wear.

That’s where our conversation with Charlie at Phillies Spring Training begin. He’s been in Clearwater since Pitchers and Catchers reported to the facility.

We flashed back to the evolution of Spring Training. Charlie’s first major league camp was in 1968, and back then, it was intended for getting all players the out-of-shape players game ready again. Charlie recalled having to go to the hospital during his first camp. Conditioning is a lot lighter nowadays.

Then there was the Tony Bennett story. After a game in Toronto, Charlie met Tony in a hotel elevator. He blurted out, “Hey Tony Bennett, sing us a song.” Tony’s reaction – and the way Charlie recalled it – was hilarious. Second to that story is the time that Charlie met Julie Andrews. To be fair, it was made better by the alternate ending that Steve Morrison imagined.

So what else is Charlie up to once the season starts? He visits PA affiliates in the summer and Florida affiliates during other points of the year. A lot of guys want to talk to him about baseball and aren’t intimidated by him. He is a self-proclaimed top scout in the league. If you’re looking for a tip, Charlie told us that fans should be excited about Johan Rojas in Reading and the younger players currently in the camp.

Great catching up with Uncle Chuck!
