What happens when you spend 58 years wondering about your biological parents, only to discover your dad is five-time Grammy winner Michael McDonald? You get one incredible family story — and then The Rizzuto Show immediately starts wondering whether Dad owes you a check and a chance to go on tour with the Doobie Brothers.This episode starts with the crew absolutely destroying breakfast from Pioneer Cafe in Kirkwood, including Nashville hot chicken hash, the Stellar Hog hash and enough onions to make Rafe question whether the universe personally hates him. And yes, somehow breakfast gets a full culinary breakdown because apparently this comedy podcast is now Diners, Drive-Ins and Dumbasses.Then comes the genuinely wild story of St. Louisan Michael Gessling, who was adopted as a baby after his biological parents conceived him when they were just 14 years old. Decades later, a 23andMe connection helped unravel the mystery of his biological family — including the small detail that his dad is Michael freaking McDonald.Yes. THAT Michael McDonald.The crew digs into the emotional reunion, Michael McDonald becoming an unexpected grandfather, whether his newly discovered son should immediately become an honorary Doobie, and the beautiful vindication this provides for every kid who ever told classmates, “My dad is actually famous.” Somewhere, the kid who claimed his dad invented Nintendo is feeling VERY confident today.Then Lern delivers Crap on Celebrities, and things remain perfectly normal for approximately zero seconds. There's Diddy prison drama, Rick Ross legal news, a Kid Rock project involving Eminem, concert announcements, Eddie Murphy heading toward scripted television, tiny residual checks from beloved '90s TV shows, Grand Theft Auto 6 earning the most predictable mature rating in human history, and Sylvester Stallone looking back at how Rambo went from emotionally damaged Vietnam veteran to extremely muscular explosion delivery system.The crew also debates Bradley Cooper as Duke in the upcoming G.I. Joe world, learns that Duke is apparently a St. Louis native — because this city will claim literally anybody it can — and examines John Cusack's new look with the sensitivity and restraint you've come to expect from us.Which is none.There's also plenty of Halloween movie talk before Porno Birthday somehow delivers the phrase “Gangsta Glory Holes 2,” providing an accidental transition so perfect that no professional writer could responsibly create it.Because waiting on the other side of the break is the Glory Hole Challenge.Riz gets blindfolded. Mystery objects are going through the hole. His face is apparently the designated scientific instrument. Listeners have prizes riding on whether he can identify what's being shoved toward him, and Rafe offers perhaps the least comforting reassurance possible: yes, it's going to be bad.It's another comedy podcast packed with weird family revelations, celebrity news, St. Louis nonsense, breakfast envy and questionable workplace decisions. In other words, another completely normal day with The Rizzuto Show.Come for Michael McDonald's surprise son. Stay because you need to know what they're putting through that hole.That's comedy podcast excellence, unfortunately.Follow The Rizzuto Show → linktr.ee/rizzshow for more from your favorite daily comedy show.Connect with The Rizzuto Show Comedy Podcast online → 1057thepoint.com/RizzShow.Hear The Rizz Show daily on the radio at 105.7 The Point | Hubbard Radio in St. Louis, MO.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Krishna Das reflects on the enduring presence of Maharaj-ji, the medicine of devotion, and finding our own way into the practice of love.This week on Pilgrim Heart, Krishna Das chats about:Accomplishing all through the name of GodEntering the presence of Maharaj-ji, the presence of real loveFinding your own way to practiceThe medicine of love and devotionThe Ramcharitmanas, an epic retelling of the Ramayana by the saint-poet Goswami TulsidasHumbling our hearts with gratitude for what we do haveMemories of arti practice with Maharaj-ji“We're always here and where we are, Mahraj-ji is. He said, ‘once I take your hand, I never let go, even when you let go of mine'. If we know about Maharaj-ji, if we've even heard of him, it means he has already taken our hand and we probably already let go a thousand times. He never lets go—life after life after life.” –Krishna DasAbout Krishna Das:Layering traditional Hindu kirtan with instantly accessible melodies and modern instrumentation, Grammy nominee Krishna Das has been called yoga's “rock star.” With a remarkably soulful voice that touches the deepest chord in even the most casual listener, Krishna Das – known to friends, family, and fans as simply KD – has taken the call-and-response chanting out of yoga centers and into concert halls, becoming a worldwide icon and the best-selling chant artist of all time. His album ‘Live Ananda' (released January 2012) was nominated for a Grammy in the Best New Age album category.KD spent the late '60s traveling across the country as a student of Ram Dass, and in August 1970, he finally made the journey to India, which led him to Ram Dass' own beloved guru, Neem Karoli Baba, known to most as Maharaj-ji. Krishna Das now travels the world sharing his kirtan practice and wonderful stories of his life, of Maharaji-ji, of his life on the Path and discusses bringing chanting into our lives through retreats and workshops. To date, KD has released 15 well-received albums, most recently Trust in the Heart released in October 2017.MORE INFORMATION and OFFERINGS VISIT: https://krishnadas.com/ KRISHNA DAS ON SOCIAL: FACEBOOK: facebook.com/KrishnaDasMusic INSTAGRAM: instagram.com/krishnadasmusic YOUTUBE: / krishnadasmusic X: @krishnadas #KrishnaDasSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Por cortesía de las fake news, esta semana hemos pasado de pensar que los VMA's habían tenido su peor audiencia en años (2 millones de espectadores en EE UU), a confirmar que habían tenido su mejor dato en más de 1 década (8 millones). Genera8ion parecen los verdaderos ganadores de la ceremonia a juzgar por los virales en redes y plataformas. Valoramos lo mejor y lo peor de la gala y quién faltó.Pero este no es un podcast sobre los VMA's. Avanzamos quién puede estar nominado a los Grammys, valoramos las nominaciones del Mercury británico y en España el Premio Ruido.En la segunda parte del podcast, hablamos de si Taylor Swift merecía ganar tantos premios MTV este año, si sus 4 nuevas canciones son tan malas como dice la crítica; valoramos la actuación de Madonna y también las demás de la noche, mucho menos comentadas, pero mejores y peores. De RAYE a Sienna Spiro, pasando por Bruno Mars.

McBryde also has a gift for a Scottish accent, and once she starts it up, she can't stop. Join us on the podcast for a conversation that gets to the human side of one of Nashville's most important songwriters.

Kicking off a run of artist-on-artist Exchanges for RA25, the musical multi-hyphenates discuss poetry, religion and their experiences as protectors of oratorical tradition. There's a deep creative current running between music and poetry, and Saul Williams and James Massiah know those waters well. This week's RA Exchange is the first in a series of intergenerational artist-on-artist conversations we'll be running to mark our 25th anniversary. In it, Williams—the Grammy-nominated poet, musician, writer and actor—and Massiah—a South London poet and musician—talk about lyricism and what first drew them to the written word. Both grew up in the church: Williams as the son of a Baptist preacher, Massiah in the Seventh-day Adventist church, raised on the King James Bible. They discuss how those upbringings shaped their sense of oratory and morality, and the tension between rejecting institutional religion and still holding on to its aesthetic traditions. They also get into what happens when a poem meets music, and what a dance floor can be beyond entertainment. Williams argues it has always been a training ground: a space for resistance, ceremony and mobilisation, where ideas can spark minds and movements. Massiah, meanwhile, explains how simply wanting to keep partying ended up radicalising him. As he puts it: "Where are we going to party if the bad guys have got all the good party locations?" The conversation was recorded in Amsterdam, where Williams performed with Underground Resistance. His new album, Leap Life, is out now on Big Dada. Listen to the full episode.

Former Vice President Al Gore needs no introduction. He is, in a way, the original climate influencer. His film An Inconvenient Truth gave rise to a new wave of climate activism in the 2000s. It was one of the highest-grossing documentaries of all time upon its release, and it won an Oscar, a Grammy, and — for Vice President Gore — a Nobel Peace Prize.He's remained active in climate policy since then and leads the Climate Reality Project. He is also an investor and was a longtime director at Apple.For this episode of Shift Key, Vice President Gore joined Rob for a live conversation at our Heatmap House event, part of New York Climate Week. He reflected on the 20th anniversary of An Inconvenient Truth, the existential risk of artificial intelligence, and what has surprised him most about the evolution of climate politics.Shift Key is hosted by Robinson Meyer, the founding executive editor of Heatmap News.You can find a full transcript of the episode here.Mentioned:Previously on Shift Key: Energy Secretary Chris Wright on Trump's Pro-Nuclear, Pro-Fossil Fuel Agenda--This episode of Shift Key is sponsored by ...RE+ 26 is the largest clean energy event in North America, happening November 16th through 19th at the Las Vegas Convention Center.

My superpower is the bridge between the people on the ground who aren't thinking about how to do marketing or to get people to act... I bring their stories and I tell their narratives and I help them go to a much wider audience who then support them.Anxiety is overcome by action. Across the country, tens of millions of independent voters, moderate Democrats and moderate Republicans feel completely overwhelmed by political drift and the sheer volume of choices available. That flood of options causes a form of paralysis where people want to do something to protect democracy, but simply do not know where to start.When I sat down with my guest Paul Katz—Chair and CEO of Entertain Impact Advocacy Alliance, multi-Grammy-nominated producer, author and social impact entrepreneur—he outlined a remarkably simple path to turn that passive concern into meaningful civic participation.Through his initiative, Commit Together, Paul is providing an easy on-ramp for anyone who wants to take a first step, whether they have ten minutes or five hours to spare. Visitors to CommitTogether.org can select their key issues, input their general political leanings and receive three aligned organizations that match their values to take immediate action.Paul's work draws directly on his deep history of mobilizing pop culture for social change, from organizing celebrity advocacy on Capitol Hill to raising awareness for civil rights heritage and global health initiatives. As Paul shared during our conversation:“Anxiety is overcome by action. Doesn't matter how small it is or, you know, just a little step. But we agree that democracy is a good thing that we want to keep for our kids.”He further emphasized that taking that initial step transforms how we experience public life:“Just by taking the first step, your anxiety kind of flows away from you, and then you feel a little bit more empowered. And what happens there is you find community.”By lowering the barrier to entry, Paul shows us that protecting democratic institutions doesn't require complex strategies—it begins when ordinary citizens choose simple, constructive engagement over quiet paralysis.tl;dr:Paul Katz introduced Commit Together to guide citizens from political anxiety into direct civic engagement.The nonpartisan Commit Together initiative connects voters with organizations matching their personal value systems.Paul shared how pop culture and artist advocacy amplify vital social impact and civil rights initiatives.Paul defined his superpower as acting as a bridge between frontline changemakers and wide audiences.Today's episode highlighted how local community engagement and simple actions help protect democratic participation.How to Develop Bridge As a SuperpowerPaul's superpower is acting as a bridge between frontline changemakers and the broader public. As Paul explained, “what I am good at, I guess, is reflecting those who really do the work... My superpower is the bridge between the people on the ground who aren't thinking about how to do marketing or to get people to act... I bring their stories and I tell their narratives and I help them go to a much wider audience who then support them.”To demonstrate how he uses his superpower as a bridge, Paul described an initiative aimed at increasing voter participation among the Black faith-based community in Georgia. Rather than relying solely on high-profile figures like Kerry Washington and Common, Paul bridged directly into local communities across 105 counties. By connecting with trusted local leaders—such as local barbers and ministers—he enabled communities to mobilize internally. This grassroots bridge successfully mobilized thousands of individuals to participate in the democratic process who otherwise might not have voted.Actionable Tips for Developing the Superpower:Practice vote tripling during elections by directly contacting two friends and inviting them to vote with you.Share compelling, purposeful stories with neighbors and colleagues to foster local connection.Engage in direct, open conversations with members of your immediate community to build trust.Take one concrete step at a time to connect ordinary people to meaningful causes.By following Paul's example and advice, you can make bridge a skill. With practice and effort, you could make it a superpower that enables you to do more good in the world.Remember, however, that research into success suggests that building on your own superpowers is more important than creating new ones or overcoming weaknesses. You do you!Guest ProfilePaul M.

She landed in Grammy swag bags and airport shops, then walked away from her distributor after one surprise visit. Ginny Bailey of Friggin Lip Balm on stepping away for nearly a decade and coming back stronger.Ginny started Friggin Lip Balm out of her shop in Uxbridge, Ontario, where customers kept asking her to make a lip balm, the one product she was sure the world didn't need. A spot in the 2011 Grammy swag bags and a Toronto Star feature turned it into a local sensation, and a distribution deal put it in Vancouver and Toronto airports. Then a gut feeling sent her across the country to visit her distributor, and what she found ended the partnership on the spot.After stepping back to deal with major life events, Ginny relaunched from her new home in Sechelt on BC's Sunshine Coast. She tested the market again with just two flavours, turned seasonal limited runs into permanent SKUs, and doubled her sales through Shopify and local markets. Phil and Ginny get into how a Community Futures business program changed the way she saw her brand (hello, "frigging affirmations" on every cap) and her numbers, why she's confident enough to charge what a premium product is worth, and why she's staying firmly in her lane as a lip care expert.It's also a reminder to pay attention to the Canadian-owned brands still standing: Friggin is handmade and hand-labelled in BC, at least until the labelling machine finally arrives.Shop Friggin Lip Balm: http://frigginlipbalm.com/

Our guest this week is Bonobo. UK musician Simon Green has spent over twenty-six years and seven albums building one of electronic music's most distinctive careers, blending field recordings, organic sounds and electronic production in a way that has earned him seven Grammy nominations and collaborations with artists like Erykah Badu and Damon Albarn. In early September he released Distance in Static, his eighth studio record, bringing together collaborators like Arooj Aftab and Nilüfer Yanya for another stunning collection of songs, and one Simon has hinted could be the last Bonobo record in its traditional format. On today's episode, Simon joins the podcast to discuss the making of Distance in Static and his process when sampling field recordings, why he feels this album marks the end of Bonobo as it currently exists, and how his varied musical past led him to making electronic music.Bonobo  : Instagram / Spotify / WebsiteVisit our official website here and follow us across our socials.

What if creativity isn't something you're born with? What if it's something you can actually practice, strengthen, and learn?On this episode of YOUR WORLD OF CREATIVITY, host Mark Stinson talks with Grammy-winning producer and mix engineer Dom Morley about what 30 years in recording studios with some of the world's most accomplished musicians have taught him about how creativity really works.Dom learned his craft at London's legendary Metropolis Studios and went on to engineer Amy Winehouse's Back to Black, earning a Grammy for Record of the Year. Across his career, he's worked with artists including Adele, Sting, Mark Ronson, Richard Ashcroft, Shakira, Underworld, and Jeff Beck.But after decades around extraordinarily creative people, Dom came to an important conclusion: creativity isn't a mysterious gift reserved for a select few. It's a skill we can develop.His forthcoming book brings together lessons from the recording studio with research into flow, play, constraints, generalism, collaboration, and the conditions that help better ideas emerge.In This Episode, Mark and Dom Explore:Creativity as a learned skill. What separates people who consistently generate ideas from those waiting for inspiration—and the habits Dom has observed among highly successful creative people.The advantage of being a generalist. Dom has deliberately worked across pop, rock, folk, electronic, and orchestral music. While conventional career advice says “pick a lane,” he explains why crossing disciplines can become a creative advantage.Why outsiders sometimes have the breakthrough. Deep expertise is valuable, but it can also narrow how we see a problem. Dom explores why ideas imported from another field can sometimes unlock solutions the experts overlook.Less freedom can mean more creativity. Unlimited time, tools, and possibilities sound ideal—but they can also become paralyzing. Mark and Dom discuss how deadlines, limitations, and deliberately designed constraints can push us toward more inventive solutions.Flow, play, and getting creatively unstuck. Is creative block really a lack of ideas, or are we failing to create the right conditions for ideas to emerge? Dom shares why experimentation and play remain essential even when creativity becomes your profession.Human creativity in the age of AI. As AI makes it increasingly easy to generate music, writing, images, and other creative outputs, what becomes more valuable about the human creator? Dom and Mark consider the growing importance of curiosity, experience, judgment, taste, and knowing which ideas are worth pursuing.Building Your Creative PracticeDom's experience offers an encouraging challenge to the mythology of the “creative genius.”You don't need to wait for inspiration. You don't have to stay in one lane. And you don't need unlimited freedom or resources to produce original work.Instead, creativity can be cultivated by expanding your influences, creating useful constraints, making room for play, developing your judgment, and practicing the process of generating and recognizing good ideas.Whether you're a musician, writer, designer, filmmaker, entrepreneur, scientist—or someone who has never considered yourself particularly creative—the question isn't simply “Am I creative?”A more useful question might be: “What can I do today to become more creative?”Connect with Dom MorleyWebsite: https://www.dommorley.com/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/dommorleyauthor/Follow Dom on Instagram for practical tips and ideas for becoming more creative—and to be among the first to hear about the release of his forthcoming book.Keep Unlocking Your World of CreativityIf this conversation sparks an idea, share the episode with another creative person. And wherever you listen, be sure to follow YOUR WORLD OF CREATIVITY, rate and review the podcast, and join Mark Stinson for more conversations with creative practitioners from around the world.Until next time, keep exploring, keep experimenting, and keep unlocking YOUR WORLD OF CREATIVITY.

Na'vi ha sido una de las mentes detrás del sonido de Alejandro Sanz, Pablo Alborán, Carlos Vives, Kany García, Marc Anthony, Ricky Martin y Humbe. Nicolás de la Espriella, su nombre de pila, es un productor, compositor e ingeniero colombiano radicado en Miami, ganador de un GRAMMY y un Latin GRAMMY, y llega por primera vez a La Clave Pop para hablar de su trayectoria musical. En la conversación con Marysabel Huston, Na'vi cuenta cómo empezó todo con una guitarra eléctrica a los nueve años, cómo una llamada del productor Julio Reyes Copello lo llevó a dejar la universidad para trabajar con artistas como Malú, Pablo Alborán y Alejandro Sanz, y cómo nació “Mi persona favorita”, la canción que le dio su primer Latin GRAMMY. También habla del concepto detrás de Dueño del Cielo, el álbum que produjo junto a Humbe, y responde a una de las preguntas más debatidas del momento: si el pop, tal como se conocía en los noventa y los 2000, se está desdibujando por tantas fusiones con géneros urbanos, afrolatinos y regional mexicano.Cierra la charla hablando de lo que viene: el nuevo disco de Humbe, el álbum de Arthur Hanlon, con colaboraciones que incluyen a Carlos Rivera y más.

Madonna won Artist of the Year and Taylor Swift made a splash at Sunday's MTV Video Music Awards - she became the most decorated performer in VMA history, and premiered her music video for Patient Zero, the lead single from the encore to her album The Life of a Showgirl. And there's a reason the VMAs might have been so keen to have her - award ceremonies aren't pulling the big audiences that they used to. Millions of people used to tune in and pore over the outfits and the speeches, hoping their favourite artists would win. But now, viewing figures are falling for shows like the Grammys, the Oscars and the Emmys.So… why are award shows in their flop era? And what's being done to revive them?BBC culture journalist William Lee Adams breaks it all down - and we hear from music fans on whether they think award ceremonies are still relevant.Instagram: @bbcwhatintheworld Email: whatintheworld@bbc.co.uk WhatsApp: +44 330 12 33 22 6 Presenter: Hannah Gelbart Producers: Benita Barden and Chelsea Coates Editor: Emily HorlerVMAs 2026 audio courtesy of MTV/CBS

Nicole Zuraitis has spent much of her career being asked (and asking herself) variations of the same question: where do you fit? Is the music jazz? Is it pop? Is it cabaret? Her new album, The Devil I Knew, doesn't exactly settle the question. Instead, it makes the question seem increasingly beside the point. It's a sprawling, 20-song project produced by Larry Klein, with string arrangements by Vince Mendoza, horn charts by Jerry Hey, and musicians including Larry Goldings, John Cowherd, Gilad Hekselman and Christian McBride, alongside her working quartet, which includes her husband, Dan Pugach, on drums. The conceit of the project, which is broken into five parts — The Mirror, The Martyr, The Malediction, The Reckoning and The Requiem — came when a friend described a moment in her own life when she realized that, after years of seeing herself as the victim, she had become the villain in someone else's story. Nicole was fascinated by the idea that the hero and the villain could be the same person. That became part of the world of The Devil I Knew. It's a record about reckoning with your own choices, told by an artist fascinated by narrative, drama and what she calls "jazz lore": the stories and mythology that surround the music. That same instinct led Zuraitis to found the Modern Songbook Society, a project devoted to the idea that the Great American Songbook doesn't necessarily have to be a closed book. Nicole says she was a late bloomer. As she tells it, "I wasn't a fully baked cake until I was 37 years old. Like, I didn't burst into the scene when I moved to New York at 25. [...] I was so nervous. And just constantly learning. And so my cake was not even fully baked. But then once it's baked, I'm like, 'For crying out loud, nobody wants this cake? Like, this is good cake. Somebody wants this cake? No? Fine. I'll eat the cake. It's fine.'" By any conventional measure, the cake is baked. Her album How Love Begins won the Grammy for Best Jazz Vocal Album in 2024. And yet, even after that recognition, she says she still feels like something of an outsider in the jazz business. She plays nearly 150 shows a year, mostly on the road, but remains fiercely independent and largely self-managed — still baking her own cake. We talked recently about all of this: about her early years as a rising soccer player and the injury that led her from one kind of pitch to another, her brief stint as a trombone player, her years of hustling in New York, what it means to live a jazz life in today's music business, and how she went about creating the world of The Devil I Knew. www.third-story.com www.leosidran.substack.com www.wbgo.org/podcast/the-third-story

A sixteen-time Grammy-winning producer, approaching sixty with nothing left to prove, was still working seven days a week. Darren Hardy asked him why, and the answer he got about Saturday mornings reframed what separates the world-class from everyone else. On DarrenDaily On-Demand, Darren shares that conversation and connects it to the ten thousand hour rule, and to the uncomfortable truth that mastery is not a gift you are born holding but a bill you pay in hours. The real question is not whether you have the talent. It is whether you would rather be doing your work on a Saturday morning than anywhere else on earth. Most people cannot answer yes, and that answer explains more about their results than their genes ever will. Get more personal mentoring from Darren each day.

Produced by Joseph Cottrell, Wayne Hall, Doug Curran and Jeffrey Crecelius This week Mark and I spoke to Chris Braide from the Downes Braide Association about their new album, Trauma. Even if you don't know Chris, you will know his work because he has written and/or produced songs for many of the world's most successful artists. He's been nominated for a Grammy and has won an Ivor Novello songwriting award. This is the 6th DBA album and we usually manage to speak to Geoff Downes about the duo's output so it was great to have a chat with the other half of the outfit. Chris' Yes connections go further than Geoff, of course, as he was one of the original members of Producers, along with Trevor Horn. In fact, he has recently released new versions of the songs on the Producers' 2012 album, Made In Basing Street. You can listen to that collection on Bandcamp. Mark and I highly recommend Trauma, which is released today on Cherry Red Records, complete with another fabulous Roger Dean cover. Is this album different to the previous 5 from DBA? Who are the guests this time? Is the music relevant to progressive rock fans? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MvQhwOUyDpY  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=blOUE9TerVE  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yZnRoIjS0k0  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XXGf0dbUmOo  YMP Patrons: Producers: Joseph Cottrell Wayne Hall Jeffrey Crecelius Doug Curran Patrons: Robert Nasir Declan Logue John Thomson John Holden Jamie McQuinn Stephen Lambe Chip Palmer Brian Husvar Michael O'Connor Geoff Bailie Lobate Scarp Ronnie Neeley Hogne Bø Pettersen Chris Bandini Michael Handerhan Peter Hearnden Scott Colombo John Viola Mark Slater Robert Vandiver Paul Tomei Brian Sullivan Todd Dudley David Watkinson Simon Barrow Steve Scott Geoffrey Mason Steve Dill Tim Stannard David Pannell Thomas DeVries Bob Martilotta Brian Harris Brian Harris Paul Hailes Ray Riethmeier Henrik Antonsson P.T.

At 22, Danielle Brooks was being chased through subway stations by Orange Is the New Black fans while still struggling to afford the life her new fame seemed to require. The series helped turn Netflix into a cultural force and made her recognizable around the world, but behind the success, Danielle was afraid to negotiate, afraid of being replaced, and increasingly willing to let other people decide what came next. Now an Oscar-nominated actor, Grammy winner, wife, mother, and host of the podcast The Intermission, Danielle gets strikingly honest about the money, rejection, faith, ambition, and self-doubt that shaped her rise + the power she’s finally ready to claim.

Olivia Rodrigo is a Grammy-winning singer and songwriter. In June 2026, she released her third album, You Seem Pretty Sad for a Girl So in Love. The day it came out, it broke streaming records on Spotify and Amazon Music, and it debuted at number one on the Billboard Charts. I talked to Olivia Rodrigo here in my studio, and I also visited her long-time producer and co-writer Dan Nigro at his studio. Dan Nigro won the Grammy for Producer of the Year in 2025, in part for his work with Olivia Rodrigo. For this episode, the two of them told me the story of making Olivia's song “The Cure,” from the original voice memo to the final version.For more info, visit songexploder.net/olivia-rodrigo.
