Rock in Retrospect
“Rock in Retrospect” focuses on the lives, careers and legacies of artists who made a significant impact on the music industry. Host Nick Bambach invites a guest to discuss their favorite artists and why they matter. We also occasionally create episodes focusing on awards shows and music-related institutions such as the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame, the Oscars, and the Grammys. If you enjoy stimulating and often-humorous discussions about music history in a laid-back environment, then this is the podcast for you!

Artist Spotlight: Cyndi Lauper
On our season two premiere, we talk to the Induct Cyndi Lauper team (Joe, Colin and Bay) about their ongoing campaign to get this 80s icon into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame (sign their petition here). We also have an in-depth discussion of Lauper's life, career and impact on American popular culture. Topics discussed include Lauper's iconic debut album She's So Unusual, her involvement with the then-WWF in the mid-1980s, her ventures into other forms of art (including television, film and theatre) and her political and social activism.
