What happens when you put us in a room with a pair of hilarious, talented twin sisters who finish each other's sentences, constantly tease one another, and are chasing their dreams in the music industry? Absolute chaos—and we loved every second of it. Joining us from New York City is the dynamic pop duo Twin City, fraternal twin sisters Anjali and Bhavani Piti, whose infectious personalities, incredible chemistry, and passion for music immediately make this one of our most entertaining interviews yet. Before we even begin, the competition starts with a hilarious game of rock-paper-scissors to determine which twin will receive Pol's famous Armenian Coffee Reading tomorrow. The game may be over in seconds, but the playful sibling rivalry continues throughout the entire conversation, giving us plenty of laughs along the way. We dive into what it was like growing up with Indian and German heritage, being born and raised in New York, and sharing a bond that only twins can truly understand. From discovering they're actually different heights after years of assuming they were exactly the same to talking about their unique personalities, family dynamic, younger brother, and life together in Manhattan, the sisters open up about the experiences that shaped both their lives and their music. Of course, we couldn't wait to talk about their upcoming debut album, Fantasy Love, a dreamy dance-pop project years in the making. They share how they developed their signature cinematic pop sound, why they finally felt ready to release a full-length album, what inspires their songwriting, and how they collaborate as sisters without letting competition get in the way. We also learn the surprising story behind the name Twin City, along with some of the very different names they almost chose before finding the perfect fit. The conversation takes another exciting turn as they reveal what it was really like auditioning for American Idol in front of Katy Perry, Luke Bryan, and Lionel Richie. We compare audition stories, swap behind-the-scenes experiences, and share plenty of laughs as Pol tells his unforgettable American Idol story that still makes us laugh years later. From waiting all day for auditions to handling rejection, we talk honestly about perseverance, believing in yourself, and why success in entertainment is often about showing up again and again. As always, the conversation quickly expands beyond music. We chat about living in New York City, balancing creativity with business, social media, TikTok, vintage fashion, sustainable shopping, vegan living, independent artistry, open mic performances, and navigating today's ever-changing entertainment industry. Along the way, Pol shares heartfelt advice about staying authentic, embracing vulnerability, and allowing opportunities to find you instead of trying to force every outcome—a conversation that becomes one of the most meaningful moments of the episode. Naturally, there are plenty of unexpected detours only UNDRESSED can deliver. Between celebrity stories, reality television, couture fashion, Carrie Underwood, the Real Housewives, viral TikTok trends, outrageous one-liners, and our signature off-the-rails humor, this episode perfectly captures the unpredictable energy that makes our conversations so much fun. If you love discovering rising artists before everyone else does, hearing behind-the-scenes stories from the entertainment industry, and laughing through every unexpected tangent, this is an interview you won't want to miss. And trust us... after getting to know Twin City you'll definitely want to come back for one twin's Armenian Coffee Reading that could reveal what the future has in store.

When I think of surrendering my life to God, I think of Carrie Underwood's song, “Jesus Take The Wheel”. I imagine myself letting go of the steering wheel of my life, and trusting in Him to steer me through the trials I face. But life isn't a highway, and giving the Lord control over everything is a lot more complicated than just letting go of the steering wheel. In today's message, Pastor Jeff is going to teach us about what it means to truly surrender to the Holy Spirit and let Him control every aspect of our lives.

America 250 week kicked off with Joey and Nancy talking about the country's 250th birthday and reflecting on some surprising moments from early American history. Nancy also confessed to accidentally running over a squirrel while driving the WIVK truck to a Community Crew event at Shangri-La Therapeutic Academy of Riding. The crew recapped volunteering at Shangri-La, where they helped with chores around the property. Joey and Marvin ended up cleaning horse pens with pitchforks while others opted for less messy jobs like pulling weeds. Joey shared an update on his son's garden after they harvested their first homegrown cucumbers. The conversation turned into a preview of the upcoming Southern Life Expo, including Kid Boss booths, local vendors, food, and Christmas in July activities. Scrolling Through TikTok featured a grandmother who went viral for removing towels from pool chairs that vacationers were using to reserve spots hours before actually showing up. Joey and Nancy both agreed that if you're not at the pool, you shouldn't be saving chairs. Hot Tea included Alan Jackson's farewell concert in Nashville featuring appearances from George Strait, Eric Church, Carrie Underwood, and video tributes from Reba, Ella Langley, and Taylor Swift. They also discussed rumors surrounding a possible Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce wedding and Bunny XO joking that being married to Jelly Roll was like serving a ten-year prison sentence. Nancy shared a dream-inspired invention: smart glasses that would recognize people and remind you how you know them before they walk up and start talking to you. A discussion about the upcoming America 250 celebration led Joey into sharing some fascinating Revolutionary War history he learned from a documentary, including why he unexpectedly found himself feeling a little sympathy for the British perspective. Lucky 7 for $50 to Farmacy Producer Karly gave a full recap of her speed dating experience from the weekend. While she didn't find a romantic connection, she met some interesting people, made a few new friends, and concluded that confidence goes a long way in that environment. Let the Beat Drop took a patriotic turn as Joey, Nancy, and Karly attempted to sing the National Anthem while staying on beat after the music dropped out. Joey shared an emotional father-son milestone after helping his 12-year-old shave his mustache for the first time. The shaving session came after Joey and his wife unintentionally made their son feel self-conscious about it. Patriot Games gave away VIP tickets to Patriot Fest in Pigeon Forge. After several listeners struggled, one caller successfully sang the first verse of "Yankee Doodle" to win front-row seats for Carly Pearce and Parmalee.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Point Fest is almost here, and the crew is fully locked into concert-season chaos. The gang talks meet-and-greets, side stages, local bands, and the Road to Point Fest competition — including an accidental on-air mix-up that somehow made things even more Rizz Show-y. Trevor May & The Nomads get some love, Sideshow gets their rightful victory lap, and everyone agrees Highland, Illinois may secretly be manufacturing musicians in a lab somewhere.Then things take a surprisingly philosophical turn when the show debates whether adults are actually cooler now than they were in high school. What starts as a simple question becomes a full therapy session involving acne glow-ups, fake confidence, bus-seat politics, floating between social groups, and why being a jerk in high school somehow counted as “cool.” Rafe drops accidental wisdom, Lern gets deep about authenticity, and King Scott proudly explains that he still doesn't get invited to parties… but now at least he hears about them. Growth. Beautiful growth.The conversation somehow escalates into midlife-crisis accusations after truck purchases, homeowner flexes, and dangling accessories become evidence in the court of Cool Dad Law. Which honestly makes this the exact kind of daily podcast people come here for: emotionally unstable grown adults trying to justify their hobbies while roasting each other into dust. That's friendship, baby.In Crap on Celebrities, the gang covers Tool reportedly being approached before U2 for the Las Vegas Sphere, celebrity “Game of Thrones politics,” and why Tool fans may need to start saving money immediately. There's also Amazon TV announcements, Fallout casting news, Reacher updates, and an absolutely brutal listen to Vince Neil performing on American Idol alongside Carrie Underwood. Nobody survives that audio clip emotionally. Nobody.The crew also dives into celebrity jail history including Martha Stewart, Robert Downey Jr., Tim Allen, Lindsay Lohan, Khloe Kardashian, Wesley Snipes, Mark Wahlberg, and Matthew McConaughey's legendary naked bongos incident. Which somehow becomes one of the most relatable celebrity stories discussed all morning. That sentence alone should tell you exactly what kind of daily podcast this is.And because this show refuses to stay on topic for more than six seconds, the episode closes with an unexpected Steve Winwood appreciation session complete with singalongs, nostalgia, and the now-unforgettable lyric: “Bake me a pie of love.” Sorry in advance for that getting stuck in your head forever.If you love music news, hilarious fails, celebrity chaos, sarcastic humor, St. Louis energy, and a daily podcast that sounds like your funniest friends trapped in a group chat with microphones, welcome home.Follow The Rizzuto Show → https://linktr.ee/rizzshow for more from your favorite daily comedy show.Connect with The Rizzuto Show Comedy Podcast online → https://1057thepoint.com/RizzShowSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Mothers carry burdens that weigh heavily on their hearts, including worries about their family members, their finances, if they’re good enough, the past, the future, and more. We have to stop worrying about things that haven’t even happened yet — instead, we need to pray about it and give it to God. He never intended for us to carry these burdens alone; we have to let go of what we can't control, stop worrying, and let God take over. In this week’s sermon, Valerie Butler reminds us that real faith isn't about having all the answers; it's about trusting God's plan even when we aren't in the driver's seat. Just like Carrie Underwood, there are times when we have to say, “Jesus take the wheel. Take it from my hands.” Together, we’ll discover six steps toward letting go of our worries and giving them to God, which is one of the most freeing and challenging things we can do.

We have to stop worrying about things that haven’t even happened yet — instead, we need to pray about it and give it to God. He never intended for us to carry these burdens alone; we have to let go of what we can't control, stop worrying, and let God take over. In this week’s sermon, Valerie Butler reminds us that real faith isn't about having all the answers; it's about trusting God's plan even when we aren't in the driver's seat. Just like Carrie Underwood, there are times when we have to say, “Jesus take the wheel. Take it from my hands.” Together, we’ll discover six steps toward letting go of our worries and giving them to God, which is one of the most freeing and challenging things we can do.

From the Patriot Mobile studio powered by E|Spaces, the guys dive into a packed episode of Try That In A Small Town. They kick things off by reacting to the latest ACM Award nominations: who belongs, who doesn't, and why politics still run the game. Entertainer, Group, Duo, New Artist, Album, Song, Single, and Musical Event of the Year all get the TTIAST treatment, with plenty of opinions on names like Morgan Wallen, Jason Aldean, Luke Combs, Jelly Roll, Cody Johnson, Megan Moroney, Chris Stapleton, Lainey Wilson, Alabama, Zac Brown Band, Parmalee, and more. Kelly shares a huge personal milestone: after interning for Reba's company back in the 90s, he finally lands his first Reba cut on a song written in 2005. That opens up a conversation about prayer, persistence, and whether Christians should pray about career and business. The guys revisit the backstory of “If I Didn't Love You” (Jason Aldean and Carrie Underwood), from losing a duet slot to writing something ultra-specific on a deadline and watching it connect. In the fan-favorite Dip Shitty-its segment, they unload on Masters “pond jumpers,” public bathroom pee etiquette, clapping when servers drop dishes, trash in urinals, rental car abuse, and more everyday behaviors that drive them crazy. They close with a powerful Small Town Hero story from Pauls Valley, Oklahoma, where a principal charged an armed student, took a bullet, and likely saved lives. It's exactly the kind of “try that in a small town” courage the show was built to highlight. If you like country music, songwriting war stories, small town grit, and unfiltered opinions, this one delivers from front to back.

SHOW NOTES: "Josephine Victoria 'Joy" Behar is an American actress, playwright, comedian, and television host. She's best known for co-hosting the ABC talk show The View, where she won a Daytime Emmy Award in 2009. Behar is known for her sharp wit and asking questions that others might avoid, such as asking Chris Christie if he was too overweight to be president. She's also hosted her own shows, including The Joy Behar Show on HLN and a call-in radio show on WABC. She is 83." The above is a PR document from ABC about her. In fact, Behar is rarely humorous. She's rather dour and absolutely inconsolable when anyone violates her political positions. She recently refused to appear on The View with her colleagues because a guest was Carrie Underwood, the great singer and American Idol winner who has a garage-full of Grammys. Behar's tantrum was that Carrie had sung at a Trump event. That's it: She had the temerity to appear and sing as an expression of her right of free speech. This is Behar's consistent behavior, she's walked off other shows as some kind of political protest even when the person involved is there for another reason. This is what's appearing in the media as "celebrity." You don't have to agree with someone else politically, but to simply ignore them and disappear is the nadir of intellectualism. Comics are supposed to be very bright. I guess there are clear exceptions. Joy Behar makes about $7 million a year to walk off the set whenever she likes. If you need to walk out because you can't deal with people intellectually, then STAY OUT.

A bizarre ballpark craze takes center stage as fans scramble for chicken finger ice cream, sparking a larger conversation about hype, expectations, and the fan experience at Yankees games. From long concession lines to whether anything is actually worth missing game action, the discussion sets the tone for a lively breakdown of early season frustrations and realities. The conversation shifts to the debut of Sunday Night Baseball's new theme from Zac Brown Band, with mixed reactions comparing it to the iconic Carrie Underwood intro. Evan Roberts and Tiki Barber also dig into Mets concerns, questioning which players can truly be trusted, while balancing realism with fan hope. Along the way, they touch on scheduling quirks, media strategy, and even a few unexpected tangents that keep the energy sharp and entertaining.

It's Tuesday, March 31st, A.D. 2026. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard on 140 radio stations and at www.TheWorldview.com.  I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Kevin Swanson and Timothy Reed Court awards Christian photographer $800,000 over discrimination Christian photographer Chelsey Nelson has scored an $800,000 settlement from the city of Louisville, Kentucky. That comes after city officials tried to force her to photograph and promote homosexual weddings. Bryan Neihart, Senior Counsel at Alliance Defending Freedom, worked on the case. His take is that “the government cannot force Americans to say things they don't believe. For almost six years, Louisville officials tried to do just that by threatening to force Chelsey to promote views about marriage that violated her religious beliefs.” Chelsey said she hoped people would see the reason she fought for her free speech, even if they don't agree with her. NELSON: “What I wish more of them would understand is that I'm actually fighting for their right to create consistent with their beliefs, even though it's a separate worldview and belief system from my own.” “My witness to my children is very important to me. I would hate for them to grow up and look back and see that their mom cowered on this issue because she feared man more than she fears God. So that was an incredible inspiration to me.” 2 Timothy 2:15 says, “Be diligent to present yourself approved to God, a worker who does not need to be ashamed, rightly dividing the Word of truth.” Spain, Sweden, Netherlands, & Germany embrace abortion and perversion the most The worst nations in the world for attitudes towards homosexuality and abortion are Spain, Sweden, Netherlands, and Germany. Sweden was the worst nation on all morality indexes. Nigeria, Kenya, and Indonesia maintained the highest moral conscience on moral issues, in this survey conducted by Pew Research. Of the 25 nations surveyed, the United States was the only country where the majority of the people surveyed considered their own nation as morally evil. Canada topped off as the most self-righteous nation, with 92% considering their citizenry to be morally good.  Trump shares Franklin Graham's evangelistic message on Truth Social U.S. President Donald Trump shared a letter on his Truth Social account on Sunday which had been sent to him by Evangelist Franklin Graham last October. Without any additional comment from President Trump, the letter from Franklin Graham contained a powerful evangelistic message, reminding him, “The only One who can save us from hell is Jesus Christ. You cannot save yourself. … The only way to Heaven is through the shed blood of Jesus Christ. God requires of us to turn from our sins, and by faith, believe in our heart, that Jesus Came to Earth, died on the cross for our sins, was buried, and God raised Him to life on the third day.” The letter closed with Romans 10:9: “If you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead, you will be saved.”  70% oppose sending Abortion Kill Pill in mail A large percentage of Americans oppose the Abortion Kill Pill being shipped through the mail. According to a new poll from CRC Research, 70% oppose abortion drugs being dispensed through the mail. Plus, nearly half of respondents say they would be less likely to support those who promoted the kill pills. Marjorie Dannenfelser, President of Susan B. Anthony Pro-Life America, said, “Voters could not be speaking any more clearly on abortion drugs flooding the mail, driving up abortion rates and undermining protections for women and children. They recognize this is an urgent public health and safety crisis that demands a return to common sense, like in-person doctor visits that were required under the first Trump administration.” Job 36:6 says, “He does not preserve the life of the wicked, but gives justice to the oppressed.” Beef and oil prices are spiking The price of beef is spiking as markets are volatile, oil prices remain high, and beef herds continue to diminish in the United States. In January 2026, only 86.2 million head of cattle were reported in the United States, the lowest number since 1951.  The war in Iran is also affecting the supply chain for fertilizer and oil, products the cattle industry relies upon heavily.  “Project Hail Mary” movie acknowledges God's providential control The film Project Hail Mary has topped the worldwide box office for two weekend in a row now. The Christian movie review organization, Movie Guide, touts the movie as “Christian” for its reference to a belief in God, and an acknowledgement of God's providential control over what happens. The story is about a school teacher who saves the world. Fox News called the film, starring Ryan Gosling, an anti-woke blockbuster. Megan Basham, Babylon Bee, and other conservative commentators gave the film a thumbs up.   Rotten Tomatoes gives it a 95% critics score, and a 96% audience score. And some say this may be the film that saves Hollywood.  The film has netted $300 million in two weekends. It's the top-grossing film of the year, thus far. However, parents should be warned that Focus on the Family reveals that God's name is used in vain 7 times, there are references to hooking up, and that the content is heavy for kids. The movie is based on the book by the same name written by Andy Weir which has been featured on the New York Times' best-seller list for 41 weeks in a row. He also wrote The Martian in 2011 which was adapted into the 2015 film of the same name starring Matt Damon and directed by Ridley Scott.  Another country music crossover into pop And finally, in pop media, country music is crossing over again onto the pop charts. Ella Langley, a Southern Baptist girl, made it to #1 on both charts with “Choosin' Texas.” The trend picks up with Carrie Underwood and Taylor Swift's big hits from the early 2000s.

In 2005, Carrie Underwood's song “Jesus, Take the Wheel” captured a feeling many of us know well. It tells the story of a young mother who, after losing control of her car on an icy road, throws her hands up and surrenders control to Jesus. The song became a massive success because it tapped into a foundational truth of the spiritual life: if you want to truly gain control of your life, you must first relinquish it. It is a powerful call for divine surrender, a recognition that our own efforts often lead us down dangerous roads.This idea of letting go is what Paul describes as living a Spirit-led life. He contrasts walking "in the flesh" with walking "in the Spirit." The flesh represents the parts of us wounded by past pain, while the Spirit is the divine image of God within us. When we let Jesus take the wheel, we stop allowing our hurts and baggage to direct our lives. Instead, we allow the Christ consciousness within us to lead the way, transforming how we see ourselves, treat others, and engage with the world.

On this episode of The Bandwich Tapes, I sit down with Jake & Shelby, a Nashville-based songwriting duo whose music is built on a natural chemistry that you can hear immediately. Our conversation feels a lot like their songs—honest, relaxed, and rooted in the process of figuring things out together.We start in the middle of a Nashville winter storm in early 2026, when power outages and unexpected downtime forced them to slow down—and unexpectedly reignited their songwriting spark. From there, we rewind to how the two of them first met through Jake's dad's music school, and the wide range of artists that shaped their musical instincts along the way, including Taylor Swift, Carrie Underwood, Lizzy McAlpine, John Mayer, Stevie Ray Vaughan, The Cars, and Madison Cunningham.One of my favorite parts of the conversation is hearing how their duet sound developed naturally rather than by design. They didn't study classic duos or try to replicate an established formula. Instead, their voices gradually found each other. Jake talks about how he essentially learned harmony from Shelby, and how their blend now feels like one shared musical voice—two distinct tones moving with the same phrasing and instinct.We also talk about some of the surreal early moments in their career, including the sudden attention that came when Michael Bublé and Kim Kardashian shared their music, amplifying their audience almost overnight. That early exposure opened doors, but it also led them to the next stage of their work: moving beyond the stripped-down Just Us era and into a fully produced debut album recorded across Nashville and Los Angeles.Along the way, they share how songs typically come together—often starting with a guitar idea, building melody, and shaping lyrics in shared phone notes. Collaboration, for them, means letting the song win when disagreements come up. By the end of the conversation, it's clear they've already built a massive catalog—nearly 100 finished songs—and they're still very much at the beginning of their story.Key TakeawaysHow Jake & Shelby's musical partnership began through Jake's dad's music school.The wide range of influences shaping their sound, from Taylor Swift and Lizzy McAlpine to Stevie Ray Vaughan and The Cars.Why their vocal harmony developed organically rather than by modeling classic duos.The surprising early boost when Michael Bublé and Kim Kardashian shared their music online.The shift from their stripped-down Just Us era into a full-band debut album.How songs often start with guitar ideas, shared phone notes, and collaborative lyric writing.Why their rule during disagreements is simple: let the song win.Music from the EpisodeLoophole — Jake & ShelbyYou Don't Know — Jake & ShelbyShut Up and Kiss Me — Jake & ShelbyFalling Out of Love — Jake & ShelbyMorning Light — Jake & ShelbyAbout the PodcastThe Bandwich Tapes is a long-form conversation podcast where host Brad Williams sits down with some of the most thoughtful musicians, composers, and artists working today.

Today I share a new perspective on a familiar Christian anthem — Carrie Underwood's “Jesus Take the Wheel” — this is a fresh, Kingdom-centered perspective that may surprise you.“Jesus taking the wheel” isn't actually how God relates to us. God doesn't want to hijack our lives or override our free will — He invites partnership, not passivity.Imagine your life as a car journey:God is not interested in forcefully kicking you out of the driver's seat.He is a gentle, loving Father who waits to be invited into the car.Once invited, He becomes the wisest, most trustworthy co-pilot — speaking, guiding, and directing your path.As Proverbs 3:6 (EASY) reminds us:“Whatever you are doing, remember that the Lord is with you. Then he will show you the right way to go.”This is the posture of a yielded life — not a surrendered steering wheel, but an open heart that listens, responds, and obeys.Sis, connect with God's guidance to a GPS system:When we make a wrong turn, the GPS doesn't shame us or shut down.It simply reroutes us.In the same way, God doesn't condemn — He gently, calmly, and lovingly redirects.Isaiah 55 reminds us that God's thoughts and ways are higher than ours — which is why we need His voice to help us navigate life's roads.God gave you free will on purpose.He wants you to choose Him, not be forced.His goal isn't control — it's companionship and guidance.Learning to hear His voice clearly is the key to staying on the path He has marked out for you.God is not harsh or pushy — He is a gentle Father enjoying the ride with His beloved daughter.God is not as a demanding taskmaster, but a loving Daddy on a peaceful Sunday drive — present, attentive, and delighting in you.If you want to grow in your ability to hear God's voice more clearly, yield to His loving direction, and truly enjoy the ride of your life with Him in the passenger seat — DM me on Instagram for information about coaching opportunities. Click hereThe 40 day journey begins next week and I would love to sojourn with you! I'm here to help you grow in wisdom and flow in the power of the Holy Spirit so you can live an abundant life and prosper in every way.

The phones take over with everything from Super Bowl skepticism to full-blown life advice. A caller argues the Patriots had one of the easiest paths ever to the Super Bowl, but Evan and Tiki make the point that banners do not come with footnotes. Win the game and history does not care how you got there. Then the conversation takes a hard left into one of the most relatable debates of all. Should you ever meet your heroes? From a heartfelt Sam Darnold encounter story to Evan's painfully awkward run-ins with Carrie Underwood and Kurt Angle, the segment spirals into a hilarious breakdown of why admiration is safer from a distance. The takeaway is simple. Players and celebrities are human, fans are weird, and sometimes the best move is saying nothing at all.
