Maggie Rose is a class act. Have you ever met someone who has incredible presence? Someone who can walk in a room and cause everyone to take a pause and notice them, even without a word spoken or any invitation to look their way? This is how people react to Maggie Rose. It is rare enough, even for professional music artists, but when you witness it happening, it is something special. That is how I felt when speaking with the Nashville artist at Merlefest in Wilkesboro, NC, in late April 2026. Maggie Rose's fifth album is titled Half Moon, and it was the subject of much of our conversation. We touched on her many musical sisters and brothers in song, her first impressions of MerleFest, and her lifelong love of connecting with live audiences. That, as well as musical excerpts from Half Moon awaits you in this episode.

Maggie Rose has been known as “Nashville's best-kept secret” for far too long. With her new album Half Moon and a pair of Grammy nominees under her belt, the singer-songwriter is standing fully in the spotlight. On Nashville Now, Rose talks about reinventing herself in the competitive music industry, how she became a favorite of jam-band audiences, and why living in Nashville as an all-genre artist can be a double-edged sword. It's a snapshot of a woman who bravely took control of her career and, as she titled one of her albums, changed the whole thing. Country is Here… Nashville is Now.

Two-time GRAMMY nominee and Americana Music Association Award nominee Maggie Rose joins us to chat about the development of her creative voice and her excellent new album, Half Moon. PART ONE Paul and Scott discuss Brandie Carlile's recent live cover of Alanis Morissette's "Uninvited," which leads to a conversation about cover songs before spiraling out of control into despair about aging. PART TWO Our in-depth conversation with Maggie RoseABOUT MAGGIE ROSE Maggie Rose earned her first GRAMMY nomination, for Best Americana Album for her No One Gets Out Alive LP, in 2025. Later that year, the Americana Music Association nominated her for Emerging Act of the Year. The recognition was hard won. After moving to Nashville in 2009, Rose released her debut album, Cut to Impress, in 2013, which yielded the Top 40 country single “I Ain't Your Mama.” She went on to release a handful of EPs, albums, and singles that explored a broader sonic landscape, including original songs such as “Body on Fire,” “Change the Whole Thing,” “Saint,” and “Poison in My Well,” a duet with Grace Potter than earned Rose her second GRAMMY nomination in 2026. Maggie's fifth studio album, which was just released, is called Half Moon. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

On this week's Talkhouse Podcast, we've got a pair of powerful songwriters—one you surely know, one you may not yet—who recently toured together, and who both have great new albums out. It's Melissa Etheridge and Maggie Rose. I'll try and fail to do justice to Melissa Etheridge's incredible life and career in one short paragraph: She's sold millions of records, written and performed massive hit songs, won Grammys and an Oscar, beat cancer, written books, done a one-woman show about her life, been a loud and strong advocate for gay rights since well before that was a mainstream thing to do, and now she's started a foundation to investigate alternate therapies for drug addiction after losing a son to opioids in 2020. She also managed to write and release her seventeenth studio album over the past couple of years: Rise was co-produced with Shooter Jennings and it's a bit more rock-leaning than usual. Etheridge is doing a big co-headline tour with Wynonna Judd, and the other half of today's conversation, Maggie Rose, is opening those shows—and as you'll hear in this chat, having a ball. Though she started her career in Nashville, Rose has always pushed at the boundaries of what might be called country music, and her last few albums don't fit the tag at all. Her brand new album, Half Moon, is out this week, and it's a big, bright pop record—smart and sophisticated and thoughtful and fun. She's been through the industry wringer and come out the other side with a stronger sense of self than ever. Half Moon and its accompanying EP Cocoon are influenced by motherhood, which you'll hear about it in this lively chat. Check out “Red Shoes” from Half Moon right here. In this sweet, mutually admiring conversation, Etheridge and Rose talk about the importance of following your own path, about being mothers in a crazy business, and about the Etheridge Foundation, among other things. You'll also hear them talk about joining each other on stage on tour—you can catch them both on the road the rest of this summer, too. Enjoy. 0:00 Introduction 02:22 Start of conversation 02:32 On “The Four Agreements” and the importance of expression 04:24 On finding connection with yourself as an artist, and on touring together 06:56 On “Poison in My Well, Maggie's latest releases, and Melissa's influences on her music 12:47 On how Maggie writes with her husband, and the stories behind “The Other Woman” and “Davina” 15:50 On Melissa's foundation researching and developing alternative treatments for addiction 19:10 On supporting each other, raising kids while touring, and teaching kids life lessons 23:13 On showing kids that doing what you love matters, and Melissa's creative journey after her son's passing 26:22 On recording Melissa's album “Rise,” and engaging with fans in a new way during the pandemic 29:22 On Maggie's new album “Half Moon,” why Melissa loves her as an artist, and working outside of genre confines 32:26 On being a live performer, feeling “undiscovered” by the wider music industry, and finding success on your own timeline 35:54 On longevity versus “flash in the pan” success, and learning from Bruce Springsteen about what matters as a musician 38:27 On the rest of their tour, and on Melissa's 12-string guitar Thanks for listening to the Talkhouse Podcast, and thanks to Melissa Etheridge and Maggie Rose for chatting.

Looking for a simple way to make your yoga classes feel fresh without creating a brand-new sequence every week? In this episode, I share 6 different transitions (linking poses together) that you can begin incorporating into your classes, along with the cueing and anatomy considerations that make each one effective. From Warrior I to Warrior II and Side Angle to Half Moon to Reclined Hand-to-Big-Toe Pose into a Supine Twist, you'll learn how thoughtful transitions can create a different experience for your students while allowing you to build confidence with a sequence you already know. I also share why making small, intentional changes to a Signature Sequence is a great way to change your Signature Sequence a little bit but not so much that you can't remember what comes next. At the end, I speak to a specific kind of yoga teacher; one who's ready to step forward and feel more confident teaching.

In Episode 227, Sarah talks with book industry analyst Brenna Connor about the behind-the-scenes world of book sales, bestseller lists, and publishing trends. Brenna shares insight into how sales data is gathered and used across the publishing industry, from tracking pre-orders and audiobooks to measuring the impact of celebrity book clubs and award recognition. They also discuss what makes a book commercially "successful," what current reading trends are revealing about 2026 so far, and what Brenna is watching for in the second half of the year. Plus, Brenna shares her own book recommendations. This post contains affiliate links through which I make a small commission when you make a purchase (at no cost to you!). CLICK HERE for the full episode Show Notes on the blog. Highlights Why tracking book sales is far more complicated than most readers realize — including what Circana can and can't actually measure. A behind-the-scenes look at bestseller lists and the role Circana data plays in lists like the New York Times, USA Today, and Publishers Weekly. The famously secretive methodology behind the New York Times Bestseller List. The impact celebrity book clubs and reading lists from Reese, Oprah, and Obama have on book sales. What current sales data is revealing about 2026 reading trends — and how the economy may be shaping book buying habits. Brenna shares the books she recommends — and the trends she's watching for the rest of the year.

Feliks Banel's guest on this BONUS EPISODE of CASCADE OF HISTORY is Ruth Leonard of Lacey, Washington - the granddaughter of Mabel of Lebam. Ruth's grandmother's full name was Mabel Pearl Goodell Thompson. Mabel's father, Jotham Goodell founded the community of Half Moon, in what's now Pacific County along Highway 6, about midway between the communities of Frances and Holcomb . When the US Post Office rejected "Half Moon" for the post office there circa 1890, Jotham Goodell came up with an alternate: Lebam, which was his three or four-year-old daughter Mabel's name spelled backward. In this conversation, Ruth Leonard brings her grandmother to life through memories of Mabel and of the community of Lebam. Mabel Pearl Goodell Thompson, who gets no more than a sentence or two in Washington state placename books as Lebam's namesake, is rendered by her granddaughter as a three-dimensional human being. CASCADE OF HISTORY spoke with Ruth Leonard on Wednesday, April 1, 2026.

Which Caribbean Island Is Right for You? Aruba, Grand Cayman, Dominica, Jamaica & MoreNot all Caribbean islands are created equal — and finding the right one can make or break your vacation. In this episode of All Things Travel, travel advisors Ryan and Julie from Wonder and Beyond Travel break down the best Caribbean islands based on your travel style, so you can stop scrolling Pinterest and start planning.In this episode, you'll discover:Best for First-Timers: Aruba — Why this easy, English-speaking island with predictable weather and US pre-clearance is the perfect Caribbean introduction. Plus, why you won't find a great all-inclusive resort there (and why that's actually a good thing).Best for Families with Young Kids: Grand Cayman — Calm, shallow waters at Seven Mile Beach, Stingray City, the Cayman Turtle Centre, and short airport transfers make this the ultimate stress-free family getaway.Best for Adventure Seekers: Dominica — The Caribbean's most untouched island offers rainforest hikes, geothermal snorkeling at Champagne Reef, canyoning, whale watching, and dramatic volcanic landscapes. Not for the beach-and-pool crowd — and that's the point.Best for Foodies: Jamaica — Jerk chicken from roadside grills, Blue Mountain coffee tours, rum tastings, farm-to-table resorts, and some of the most vibrant culinary culture in the Caribbean. Ryan and Julie also share their top resort picks including Half Moon and GoldenEye.Bonus: Honorable mentions for best beaches, including Turks & Caicos in summer vs. the Dominican Republic in winter — and why Roatan, Honduras might be the Caribbean's most underrated destination.Ryan and Julie also share an exciting client story: an all-concierge Disney Wish cruise for a multigenerational family, and a sneak peek at next week's episode on Iceland.Whether you're a nervous first-timer, a parent wrangling toddlers, a thrill-seeker, or a passionate foodie — there's a Caribbean island with your name on it. Tune in and find yours.
On today's episode, I talk to musician Steven Brown. Originally from Chicago, IL, Steven moved to San Francisco in the 1970s, where he eventually joined the artist collective and commune The Angels of Light. It was though this group that he would meet his collaborators in the brilliant post-punk band Tuxedomoon.

Sammy and Jack take one last quick look at a disappointing defeat against Brighton at the weekend. They discuss what went wrong with the lineup and whether there is really much debate to be had over the last-minute penalty. Also, they preview Fulham's meeting with Tottenham Hotspur and predict how Silva might deal with another fixture without Sasa Lukic. Another key point of debate in the Fulham conversation is over the release of Crystal Palace tickets for the FA Cup quarter-final. Fulham fans were pleasantly surprised to see the release of reasonably-priced tickets - surely this could be a rare match to forget about ticket price debacles. However, many Putney End season ticket holders and members stand very little chance of securing a ticket due to the number of tickets initially made available to season ticket holders. Sammy and Jack look into whether this is a continued oversight on the club's part. In part two, they answer some of your listener questions. How come Fulham keep conceding from 1-0 leads? Should Fulham be looking towards signing some more American-based players?--SHOW-LINKS:If you enjoy Fulhamish, please consider contributing a small amount monthly to help pay our costs.

A nice sunny afternoon was ruined by a last-minute Joao Pedro penalty that secured Brighton a 2-1 victory over Fulham. An important fixture in the wider European discussion saw Brighton edge Fulham to snatch a handy point away from their finger tips. George is joined on the pod by Dan Cooke, Issy Barker and Jack Stroudly to run over where Fulham fell below par on Saturday afternoon. They reflect on whether Silva's decision to set-up with a back five restricted our attacking drive, only managing a goal against the run of play and from a magical Iwobi moment. Emile Smith Rowe's form remains in the conversation as his lack of progression begins to frustrate. Where does this missed opportunity for a point leave Fulham in the European picture and are we getting too ahead of ourselves in our ambition's for the team?In part two, they answer some of your listener questions. Would Godo and King have provided some youthful spark to the final stages of the game and are we seeing a Pereira redemption arc?--SHOW-LINKS:If you enjoy Fulhamish, please consider contributing a small amount monthly to help pay our costs.

Sammy and Jack look back once more to Fulham's stunning win over Manchester United at the weekend. Was it actually the most pleasant game of football to watch? Heart rates were high and nerves sickening, but the result is that Fulham are in the quarter-finals. The team now face Crystal Palace in the next round that maybe is not the neutrals first choice but will certainly be a challenge. The FA Cup has opened up with Manchester City and Preston being the standout teams from opposing ends, can Fulham take advantage?Looking forward to a trip down to the south coast, they consider whether Brighton really see Fulham as their bogey team. Fulham are unbeaten in the past 9 league fixtures against Brighton but some of those games have been gloomy. It will not be an easy match at the Amex against Hurzeler's side. In part two, they answer some of your listener questions, responding to accusations that fans are too quick to be unsatisfied with Fulham's current position in the table and recent league results.--SHOW-LINKS:If you enjoy Fulhamish, please consider contributing a small amount monthly to help pay our costs.

Fulham have done it! No 1-0, no red cards but plenty of nerves. Manchester United are left smarting after Bernd Leno saves penalties from Lindelof and Zirkzee to see Fulham through to the next round of the FA Cup. Silva's side ground down a very poor Man United team through 90 minutes, extra-time and finally, penalties. George is joined by Yasmin, Elizabeth and Luke Resch, on his Fulhamish debut, to bask in the glorious sunshine that comes after beating Man United at Old Trafford. It was by no means a beautiful or entertaining game of football for the neutral but it did have Fulham fans' heartbeats sky-rocketing. Bassey's header put Fulham ahead in the final stages of the first-half but a moment of magic from Bruno Fernandes threatened to send Fulham packing. The second-half and extra-time were littered with Man United chances but Leno's heroic hand of god clinched victory for the Cottagers. In part two, they answer some of your listener questions. Is there a feeling better than this on a magnificent spring morning? Is Bernd Leno pinching Mark Schwarzer's spot for second best all time Fulham keeper? Will Sess be seen again at right-wing?--SHOW-LINKS:If you enjoy Fulhamish, please consider contributing a small amount monthly to help pay our costs.

Sammy James is joined by Elizabeth Barnard, both Molineux attendees, as they digest a bounce-back victory against Wolves. Tuesday night brought five changes to the starting line-up from Marco Silva, surprising and unnerving many Fulham fans. This gamble paid off after two goals from Ryan Sessegnon and Rodrigo Muniz. There were tears in many's eyes as Sess opened the scoring within the first minute, rolling back the years to his first stint at the club. Fulham recovered from Wolves' equaliser, stinging the home side with another early goal in the second-half from a lovely Muniz fish and chip finish. Sammy and Elizabeth discuss Marco's tactical changes and how the result provided the perfect reaction to an uncomfortable loss to Crystal Palace at the weekend. They debate whether fans were too quick to judge a poor weekend performance with the other evening's results suggesting that Fulham remain in the mix for European contention. In part two, they look forward to a looming Manchester United fixture in the fifth round of the FA Cup. Can Fulham avoid another painful 1-0 defeat and put emotional memories of previous FA Cup visits to Old Trafford aside to overcome Amorim's poor team. They answer some of your listener questions including some recent tasty Fulham statistics and why Leno has lost the captain's armband.--SHOW-LINKS:If you enjoy Fulhamish, please consider contributing a small amount monthly to help pay our costs.
