The Me That Remains isn't just the first original Amy Grant album in 13 years, produced by Mac MacAnally, it's a deeply intimate, stripped-down, folk-pop reflection on survival, aging, and reconstruction, heavily shaped by a series of profound, recent life-altering health events including a severe 2022 bicycle accident that left this multiple Grammy winner and Kennedy Center honoree with a traumatic brain injury and a long road to recovery. Luckily, Amy fought her way back to tell us all about it in this wide-ranging and revealing conversation.

Happy June! When we first had Sean Ono Lennon on the show we discussed his loving curation and restoration of the work of his famous parents, John Lennon & Yoko Ono.

Greatest Hits Records & Books in Media, PA, is where our guests, Stu Eli, Jesse Gennett, and Dom Glisson cooked up the idea to record and release an "audio time capsule" of the sounds of Delaware County, Pennsylvania, a/k/a "Delco." The result is the 92-track album, The Sounds Of Delco, Vol. 1, a light-hearted but affectionate nod to their region and to the used sound effects records that wash up in the store from time to time. Paul also pays tribute to Jack Douglas (1945-2026) the legendary music producer and engineer of classic albums by John Lennon & Yoko Ono, Cheap Trick, Patti Smith Group, Aerosmith, and The New York Dolls, who passed on at the age of 80 on May 11.

Castle Rat is a self-described "medieval fantasy metal band" led by our guest, Riley Pinkerton. In her stage persona as "The Rat Queen," Pinkerton is a sword-wielding heroine on a mission to expand and defend 'The Realm' from those who seek to destroy it. Off stage, she's a friendly, glue-gun wielding creative arts kid, firmly grounded in the real world. She's here to talk about the band's most recent concept album, The Bestiary, why she feels that the body positive fantasy art of Frank Frazetta was actually empowering to women, and how she and her band all get a good laugh out of watchingl the film, This Is Spinal Tap.

Toronto-based band Metric have come a long way since their official formation over two decades ago, but as they sang in their 2008 single "Help, I'm Alive," their hearts are still "beating like a hammer."
