Episode # 182: David Jenkins (Paul Jenkins) & Jordan Summers (Yale Summers)

Rarified Heir Podcast

Today on another encore edition of the Rarified Heir Podcast, we are talking to two guests who have been on the podcast prior but not at the same time. We are speaking with David Jenkins, son of actor Paul Jenkins and Jordan Summers, son of actor Yale Summers.

This is a unique episode for a couple of ways, the first is that we don’t often have two guests on at the same time. And two, while they did not attend the same high school, both David and Jordan gravitated to music, rather than acting and began playing music in long gone LA clubs while still in high school, back in the 80s. What’s more is that that love of playing music never left them and they get together at the world famous (ahem) Kibbitz Room at Canter’s Deli in Los Angeles for monthly jam sessions. The thing is, these aren’t your regular jam sessions. Quite a few big name musicians have joined them on stage playing rock, soul, Motown, disco, pop and more. Like who you ask? Well, listen in to find out who was doing it in the “Middle of the Road” with a “Super Freak”

Talking to David & Jordan was like hearing to a strangely reminiscent version of host Josh Mills’ own youth as familiar names, places and people come up in our conversation, it’s almost like being there. Sort of. This encore episode is one is for all you music fans out there. This is the Rarified Heir Podcast. Everyone has a story.
