Back to the Future
Broadway
In this episode, music legend Huey Lewis joins Tim and Troy Green for a wide-ranging conversation about life, loss, fame, and finding joy after adversity. Huey reflects on his early yearshitchhiking through Europe with a harmonica, busking on the streets, and discovering his voice in Londons punk scene. He shares powerful memories of mentors like Phil Lynott, the lessons he learned from Robert Altman, and the unforgettable night recording We Are the World with Michael Jackson, Stevie Wonder, and others.
Huey also opens up about his profound hearing loss and the spiritual peace hes found in nature, fishing, and family. With characteristic humility and humor, he talks about his Broadway-bound musical, the impact of Back to the Future, and why sometimes the setbacks are what set you free.
This isnt just a trip through 80s nostalgiaits a story about staying grounded when the world goes wild, and why the journey matters more than the spotlight.
