Remembering Tim Curry

Author: Appen Podcast Network September 1, 2026 Duration: 45:31

Tim Curry's unmistakable voice, magnetic presence and fearless performances made him one of the most memorable actors of his generation. Following his death at 80, we take a look back at Curry's remarkable career and the lasting legacy of an actor who could command the screen, stage and microphone with equal force.

Joining us is film producer and sound mixer Aron Siegel, who first appeared on the podcast during our 1975 series to discuss the premiere of The Rocky Horror Picture Show and the cultural phenomenon it would become. Aron returns to share his perspective on Curry, his iconic performance as Dr. Frank-N-Furter and why Rocky Horror continues to resonate decades after its release.

It's a celebration of Tim Curry's career, his influence and the unforgettable characters that made him a pop-culture icon.

Since its start in 2019, The Georgia Politics Podcast has served as a steady guide to the political landscape of the Peach State. This isn't just a surface-level recap; it's a focused dive into the mechanics and personalities shaping policy where it happens. You'll hear detailed analysis of the latest from under the Gold Dome, breaking down complex legislation and the political maneuvers driving the news. The conversations go beyond the capitol steps, however, connecting statehouse decisions to their real-world impact on communities from the mountains to the coast. Produced by the Appen Podcast Network, each episode prioritizes clarity and context, whether the legislature is in session or not. Tuning in means getting a clearer picture of how Georgia's House and Senate operate, the key figures involved, and why their actions matter. For anyone curious about the forces directing one of the country's most politically dynamic states, this podcast provides an essential, grounded perspective. It’s designed for engaged citizens who prefer substance over soundbites, offering a reliable narrative of how Georgia's government functions, fights, and finds its way forward.
