E27 More with Jimmy Baron

In Part II of my interview with former Actor/Radio DJ Jimmy Baron, we cracked open the vault of personal music memories. Picture this: Music Midtown Festival '95, where my chance encounter with Jimmy Baron led to him recommending seeing the band Cake's performance who we both still listen to. Throughout our chat, we unearthed the anthems that defined a generation, from Twisted Sister's raucous "Stay Hungry" to the enduring charm of Tom Petty's "Full Moon Fever" – an album that defied initial rejections to become a classic hit. We mused over how tracks like "I Won't Back Down" become part of our collective consciousness, uniting us in a chorus of resilience and remembrance of the artists who've left their indelible marks on our hearts. We celebrated the 30th anniversary of Weezer's 'Blue Album' and relived songs like "Come Undone" and "Buddy Holly". 

Strapping on our nostalgia skates, we glided back to the days of 99X and Dave FM. On a more personal note, Jimmy Baron shared the tale of his own career pivot from the radio biz to real estate, reveling in the unexpected fulfillment of helping clients find their dream homes. Embracing his mother's wisdom to zero in on what truly matters, he found a fresh beat in the rhythm of life, proving that sometimes the B-side of our careers can produce the greatest hits.
