Famous and Gravy
Wondery | 14th Street Studios
125 episodes
1 week ago

We explore the lives of notable people who’ve just died—celebrities, icons, cultural figures—and asks what their stories can teach us about ourselves. It’s part obituary podcast, part biography, and part existential detective work.

Think you know everything about some of modern history’s most recognizable figures? We’re Amit and Michael, two pop culture enthusiasts who upend your assumptions about the iconic and the famous. Because that’s where you find the “gravy” – the rich, flavorful sauce that brings out the best parts of the dish that is life.

Each episode we’ll put the lives of recently deceased celebrities under the microscope to consider the not-so-obvious ways these icons of culture left their impact and imprint on modern history. It’s a hilarious and fresh perspective on the celebrities you thought you knew.

History Daily | When Bowie Became Ziggy
Today on Famous & Gravy, we’re sharing an episode from one of our favorite history podcasts—History Daily, hosted by Lindsay Graham. Why do we think Famous & Gravy listeners will enjoy this show? Because, like us, they believe that history is human. Each daily episode zooms in on a single moment in time, offering a compelling narrative that’s both immersive and full of unexpected insight. In this episode, we hear the story of how David Bowie—then still going by David Jones—morphed into his most iconic alter ego, Ziggy Stardust. It’s a tale of transformation, inspiration, and bold creative reinvention. If you liked our Bowie episode, you’ll love this. Happy listening—and Famous & Gravy will be back next week with our regularly scheduled programming.
