The Magnificent Others with Billy Corgan

Billy Corgan sits down with Erin Murphy, the iconic Tabitha from Bewitched, for a candid look at what it really means to grow up inside one of TV’s biggest phenomena, pulling in over 30 million viewers a week. Erin shares vivid, almost dreamlike memories from working side-by-side with Elizabeth Montgomery to childhood moments that felt more like play than pressure. She reveals behind-the-scenes quirks fans still debate (including the infamous “Dad switch”), how production quietly bent rules to keep the show running, why fame never hit her the way it hits most child actors and how she's channeled her platform into advocacy for children, autism awareness, and causes close to her heart.

He reveals how MTV was forced to finally play newly transcendent artists, what it took to push past label politics, the high-stakes power struggle with Joe Jackson, shaping Madonna’s rise and working alongside Billy Idol.

Billy Corgan welcomes guitar virtuoso Jeff "Skunk" Baxter for a journey through music history starting with the guitar he didn't even want. Baxter shares incredible stories from his early days in Mexico City, from writing fan letters to his heroes The Ventures to eventually producing their records. He reflects on playing alongside Jimi Hendrix and what made the legends truly magnetic: joy, not just skill. Along the way, he breaks down the philosophy behind his signature sound and how his work with Steely Dan helped redefine studio perfection.
But there's tension in the story too, walking away from Steely Dan at their peak and reinventing the Doobie Brothers. Baxter also reveals his second act as a defense consultant, drawing surprising parallels between jazz improvisation and military strategy, while he and Corgan dig into AI's growing threat to the music business and the irreplaceable humanity at the heart of a live performance.

Billy Corgan sits down with Disturbed frontman David Draiman for an unfiltered conversation about music, identity, and what happens when an artist steps into the political firestorm. What starts as a reflection on a surreal Black Sabbath/Ozzy tribute quickly turns into something deeper. Draiman shares how the October 7 attacks reshaped his worldview, why he felt compelled to go public, and the personal toll it’s taken, from media narratives to fractured relationships. Corgan pushes on the bigger questions: Where’s the line between free speech and responsibility? Should artists use their platform for politics or stay out of it? This is a tense but thoughtful exchange about conviction, consequence, and the role of artists in a divided world.

Billy Corgan sits down with icons Billy Idol and Steve Stevens for a conversation about how a genre gets built from scratch—and what it really takes to make something last. Idol and Stevens trace their origin story from a chance meeting in New York to a 40+ year creative partnership that fused punk, dance, and rock before anyone thought it could work. Corgan pushes deeper into the creative decisions behind it all—rejecting “punk purity,” trusting instinct over rules, and using technology as a tool instead of a crutch. They also get into MTV-era fame, excess, and what it’s like building an identity in real time while the culture is both shifting and blowing up around you.
