Show Notes
Ryan Cabrera jumps on with Erik Zachary for a fast, funny, and surprisingly heartfelt catch-up that runs from Times Square windows to toddler tantrums. Ryan’s celebrating the 20th anniversary of “On The Way Down” with a star-stacked new version (Joey Fatone, AJ McLean, members of Hanson, Hot Chelle Rae, Nick from Walk the Moon) and a punchy rock take with Like Ghost—proof that great songs don’t age, they shapeshift.
He talks late nights turned dad life, why seeing his daughter side-stage changes the meaning of every show, and how painting (shoutout to a first portrait of Charles Bukowski in Lisa Marie Presley’s Hawaii home) became his creative reset. Plus: TRL war stories, a Will Ferrell cameo, being up for “Best New Artist” against Kanye West.
Other Highlights
• The 20th-anniversary “On The Way Down” collab lineup + the Like Ghost rock version
• From road warrior to girl dad: performing with family in the wings
• Painting as therapy and philanthropy (Bukowski → Dylan → Harrison)
• TRL nostalgia, VHS time capsules, and a Will Ferrell flashback
• Fans old and new, and the timeless power of a great hook.
