Glass Houses - A Billy Joel Podcast

The 1970s is the decade when Steven Spielberg and George Lucas created the modern blockbuster with Jaws and Star Wars. Directors like Martin Scorsese and Francis Ford Coppola stretched the limits of narrative and visual and storytelling for mainstream moviegoers. Off-beat and unconventional films from Harold and Maude to Midnight Cowboy grew into cult classics and celebrated cinematic landmarks.

In this Side Quest episode, Jack talks with filmmaker, author, and teacher Peter Hanson about the innovations and cultural impacts of '70s cinema, the conditions that led to this renaissance, and the underlying ideas about creativity and storytelling that fuel great movies.

Billy Joel - The 100th: Live at Madison Square Garden is the first full Billy concert to get an official release. Along with documenting the band that helmed the 11-year Garden residency, it's also a visual tour-de-force thanks to behind-the-scenes passion and the latest in video technology.

On the eve of its Blu-Ray and DVD release, Executive Producers Steve Cohen and Barry Ehrmann gave Glass Houses a long look behind the production curtain: Everything from the initial vision, precise coordination, and technical expertise, through the moment-by-moment shoot and a few last-minute developments that helped make the night a success.

This week, we’re joined by acclaimed singer-songwriter Matt Nathanson for a lively, candid conversation about his deep connection to the music of Billy Joel.

Fresh off his appearance at the all-star Carnegie Hall tribute, The Music of Billy Joel, Matt takes us inside the unforgettable night—sharing stories from the stage, the electric atmosphere in the room, and what it meant to perform classics like “I Go to Extremes” and “Miami 2017 (Seen the Lights Go Out on Broadway)” in such a legendary venue.

We dig into his brand new six-song EP, Songs In The (M)attic, which finds Matt reimagining Billy Joel classics through his own lens, balancing reverence with fresh perspective.

Matt also talks about watching the recent Billy Joel: And So It Goes documentary, which helped him reconnect with his longtime love for Billy and set the stage for everything that followed.

Listen to Matt Nathanson's Songs In The (M)attic HERE.
