When Chris Douridas launched Ground Zero, his new weekly radio show for KCRW in conjunction with AOL's Spinner.com, his first guest was none other than Madonna, who discussed the making of Music, perhaps the most ambitious album of her career. Madonna had just gave birth to her second child, so she did the interview over the phone from her home. Douridas also taps the insights of her various co-writers and producers: Mirwais, Guy Sigsworth, and brother-in-law Joe Henry.
KCRW’s Resident DJ is a sonic laboratory where artists are invited to reinvent, reimagine, and lean into their most eclectic, creative impulses. Resident DJ airs every Thursday night/Friday morning from midnight to 1 a.m. PT, and can be streamed anytime on the KCRW app. Just in time for Pride Month, Hercules & Love Affair will be our Resident DJ for June 2026.
