    Crossroads Reloaded - Eric Clapton's 2026 Revival

    Eric Clapton's Crossroads Guitar Festival is a legendary guitar showcase he started back in nineteen ninety-nine—think epic jams with legends like Jeff Beck, John Mayer, and Santana—where all ticket sales and related proceeds go straight to funding the Crossroads Centre in Antigua.

It's been raising millions over the years to keep the center running strong. In this podcast The Trout talks about the history of Crossroads and why it’s important.

    Politics and Musicians - What Could Go Wrong

    Music and politics have always collided—think Bob Dylan in the '60s or protest songs against wars—but in recent years (especially 2024–2026), it's exploded with social media amplifying everything. Artists' views alienate half their audience, politicians steal songs without permission, and endorsements become headlines. In this podcast The Trout talks about what happens when musicians make political statements and take political stands for or against politicians. www.TheTroutShow.com Your comments are appreciated!

    Rock and Roll Hall of Fame - Where Money Talks and Rock Walks

    Welcome to Rock and Roll Hall of Fame: Money Talks, Rock Walks—the podcast that pulls back the curtain on Cleveland's shiny glass pyramid. Once built to honor the raw, guitar-driven legends who shaped rock 'n' roll—from Chuck Berry to the Beatles—it now feels more like a tourist trap than a temple. We dive into the snubs: Jethro Tull, Boston, Steppenwolf—bands that sold millions, packed arenas, and defined the '70s, yet never got a single nomination. Meanwhile, pop icons like Mariah Carey, Pink, and Dolly Parton slide right in, because hey, they sell tickets. And the money? Last year alone, the Hall pulled in sixty-five million bucks—nearly twenty million profit—while CEO Greg Harris pockets close to a million. Is this still about music, or just the bottom line? Stick around—we're calling it like it is. www.TheTroutShow.com Your comments are appreciated!
