The musical is a self-aware parody that creates a chaotic, over-the-top rock musical. In true Rock and Roll fashion, Exorcistic: The Rock Musical features a rotating cast of Celebrity Guests each week, creating an incentive for audiences to return again and again. This unique aspect sets the musical apart in the crowded horror-comedy genre, promising fresh surprises at every performance. Special guest stars include: Lance Bass, Garrett Clayton, Orfeh, Frankie Grande, Lena Hall, Lindsay Heather Pearce, Marissa Jaret Winokur, Evan Rachel Wood, Ryann Redmond, Nick Cearly and MORE!

    Season 5: Episode 18 - Charlene Oliver Interview - I've Been To Paradise, But I've Never Been To Me

    This season on my podcast, Baring It All with Call Me Adam, I am spotlighting My Entertainment Idols. Today I am catching up with Motown Singer & Songwriter Charlene Oliver, who you know as the songstress behind the #1 song, "I've Never Been To Me," written by Ron Miller & featured in one of my favorite movies, The Adventures of Priscilla, Queen of the Desert. Charlene & I last spoke in 2020 and now I am thrilled to be speaking with Charlene once again! In this NEW interview, Charlene is Baring It All with Call Me Adam about: How she came to record the global hit song, I've Never Been To MeGetting out of her abusive marriageFinding tranquility amongst the chaos of the worldThe sweetness of candySo much more  "I've Never Been To Me" is available to stream on all music platforms! Special Thanks:Adam White & Jeff OliverTheme Song by Bobby CroninPodcast Logo by Liam O'DonnellEdited by Adam RothenbergUnderscore Music by Cutique Connect with Me:Website: www.callmeadam.com Facebook: @CallMeAdamNYC Instagram: @CallMeAdamNYC More on Charlene Oliver:Charlene Oliver always knew she wanted to be a singer, from her childhood in Hollywood in the late 1950s, one of two sisters in a loving family of Italian/American origin.  Charlene's first break came with the offer to join Petula Clark's backing singers at Caesar's Palace in Las Vegas. Before long, she was auditioning in front of legendary Motown boss Berry Gordy and to her joy, being signed, the first ever white female singer to be signed to the label. Her first song, "All That Love Went To Waste," came out in 1974, followed by two albums on the Motown label. Then writer Ron Miller persuaded Charlene to record his song, "I've Never Been To Me," in 1977, but the single only just scraped into the Top 100. By the early 1980s, Charlene's career seemed to be stalling and she had left the US to move to her second husband Jeff's home in Essex, England, where she found work in the local sweetshop. It was there that she heard, in 1982, that a Florida DJ had been pushing her song so much that it had been re-released, and was finally hitting the charts. Within a few weeks, the singer found herself back at the top, as the song hit #1 in country after country all over the world, and she left her Essex sweetshop to fly on the Concorde to perform internationally.  The growing international success of the musical Priscilla, Queen of the Desert has confirmed her as a hugely popular singer amongst the gay community, and recently she released a new club version of her iconic song in association with Eye Witness. Charlene's story has it all: the stars, the fame, the struggle, the pain.

    Season 5: Episode 16: Steve Burns Alive - Original Host of Nickelodeon's Blue's Clues

    This season on my podcast, Baring It All with Call Me Adam, I am spotlighting My Entertainment Idols. Today I am catching up with Steve Burns, who you know as the original sleuth finding host of Nickelodeon's Blue's Clues. I first interviewed Steve in 2017 when he released his album Foreverywhere (alongside Steven Drozd of The Flaming Lips). From 1996-2002, on camera, Steve Burns was entertaining millions of kids as the happy go-lucky host of Nickelodeon's Blue's Clues, but towards the end of his run, behind-the-scenes Steve was starting to hear multiple rumors of his death which was one of the events that led him to struggle with depression. Now, Steve his bringing his story to the theatrical stage with his solo show debut in Steve Burns Alive. In this NEW interview, Steve is Baring It All with Call Me Adam about: What life was really like behind the camera during his days on Blue's CluesHow he almost missed his opportunity to write the theme song for CBS' Young SheldonWhy he is grateful to be alive todayHow he hopes this interview will help someone who is also struggling with depressionSo much more  In Steve Burns Alive, Steve dissects the bizarre phenomenon of being mourned while still breathing. This isn't just his story—it's an excavation of how parasocial relationships shape our reality, how digital mythology replaces truth, and what happens when millions of strangers grieve a version of you that never existed. Steve Burns Alive cuts through the layers of myth and performance to expose the raw mechanics of human connection in the digital age. This is not a children's show. This isn't nostalgia. This is an unflinching forensic examination of what it means to exist in the space between who people think you are and who you actually are, and the stories we tell about the people who shaped our childhoods. Steve Burns Alive will play for 3 performances ONLY, from July 23-25, 2025 at The Club at La Mama in NYC's East Village. Click here to watch this interview in video format!

Then he disappeared. On purpose. Since then, Steve has released indie rock albums, toured with The Flaming Lips, wrote the theme song for Young Sheldon, been a host and storyteller for The Moth and gone massively viral by quietly breaking the internet with a heartfelt message to a generation of now-grown-up viewers.
