Reigning Queen of Gravel Rosa Klöser returns to the show to talk about some of the major developments in her career since we spoke with her after her surprise win at Unbound last year. That victory launched her into the spotlight as a major new player in the gravel scene, but her spur-of-the-moment decision to race German Road Nationals really brought her to the attention of the broader cycling world. After coming in 9th place in a stacked field, Rosa scored a contract with the WorldTour team and Tour de France Femmes champions Canyon-SRAM.She sat down with Payson in Girona last week to talk about how a disorganised and last-minute stop at German Nationals set her on a new path in the sport, her first training camp with Canyon-SRAM, and how she'll be managing a privateer program on gravel with a WorldTour team on the road.

Taylor Swift has, since the pandemic began, ascended from precedent-shattering pop superstardom to something even grander. She's released four full-fledged (and long) new albums; re-recorded and expanded the tracklists for four of her previous albums; captivated global audiences with the massive-scale Eras Tour and accompanying blockbuster film; picked up two more Album of the Year Grammys; weathered a breakup from a rebound; rebounded from the previous rebound; gained a new appreciation for Football Culture ("seemingly ranch," anyone?); played a supporting role in the film Amsterdam (lol); and announced her intention to write and direct a full-length feature film. If you're exhausted just reading that list of accomplishments, imagine how she must feel pulling them off. The Tortured Poets Department, her latest album, gave Mark and Devin an opportunity to imagine just that, and to ponder how they feel about Taylor Swift's stratospheric omnipresence. They're joined by Erin Vail, a beloved returning guest and self-proclamed "medium- to high-level Swiftie."

Melissa Lawson, Winner of NBC Hit Show Nashville Star Season 6 is back and continues her INCREDIBLE life story. We pick up with her being in Nashville, for the Nashville Star competition, making it into the top 12 and being sequestered for 3 months. We get lots of behind the scenes information. She says that she was given an opportunity and felt like it was her responsibility to take full advantage of it and work as hard as she could. The show was MC’d by Billy Ray Cyrus, who Melissa says is truly an amazing guy and the judges were John Rich, Jewel and Jeffrey Steele. Melissa’s mentor was John Rich, who really fought for her. She tells us how extremely nerve wrecking it is to stand on stage to find out if you get voted off. She tells us about the finale and what it was like to be announced the winner of Nashville Star, Season 6. So incredibly exciting. After winning she experienced the ride of her life for a few months, being whisked from interview to interview, being flown to Bejing China and performing for the Olympic games and headlining every weekend for months. After about 6 months she returned home only to find her kids out of control and slowly her life crumbling in front of her. She was asked to step down from the worship team of her church because her fame was a distraction, she found out her husband was having an affair, Warner Brothers told her she had nothing to offer them and released her from her contract, they had to file bankruptcy, lost the house, cars and every material thing. They lost it all. Her husband tried to save their marriage and had to come clean about everything he had ever done, and it confirmed everything she had suspected for years. Melissa is so compassionate and decided to forgive him, because all she wanted was to keep her family intact. She has PTSD and fights mental illness on a daily basis from the traumas she repeatedly experienced over the course of 20 years. However she is friends with her ex husband and they co parent together. Listen to her experience with Tony Robbins who worked with her and her husband, Rick. The pair, who have five children, are struggling to overcome Rick’s infidelity while Melissa was away from home on tour and recording. The conflict has affected Melissa’s career and the couple’s relationship with their kids. The outcome is crazy. They tried to repair their marriage several more times, but after yet another affair Melissa had had enough, left, filed for divorce, started her own super successful company and met her new husband. She was going through a very confusing time and made choices she is not proud of but you must hear her tell the story of getting pregnant with her 6th child. It is spellbinding and mind blowing. She wrote a suicide letter, took pills, was rescued, but was put on lock down and put in a psychiatric unit for 14 days. Today Melissa is trying to inspire women of all walks of life and she started a podcast “Living with the Lawson’s” and is actively working on reviving her music career with her boys that have a band. We encourage her to go on America’s got talent. Melissa is a big believer that nobody has to be perfect and it is better to share the truth than to keep secrets. What an inspiration she is. Question of the Day Segment: Name a movie that you have watched over 5 times that you are still entertained by.Penis and Pussy Talk Segment: The sex talk isn’t enough. How parents can teach teens about healthy relationships. To end the show Melissa blesses us with 2 more songs that give us chills. Her talent is incredible. She truly has the voice of an angel. We want to see her get another chance and become the star she was born to be. Everyone needs to know Melissa Lawson. You can find her on her social media accounts athttps://www.instagram.com/themelissalawson/?hl=enhttps://www.facebook.com/melissalawson/https://www.facebook.com/melissalawsonmusic

And is it different for the guys and the gals? Veteran comedians Peggy Platt and Kristen Kirkham dish about their careers, the challenges for women in the business of being funny, and what makes us laugh. Peggy Platt, the “Reigning Queen of Seattle Comedy,” has plied her trade as a noted performer, comedian, teacher, and artist in the Pacific Northwest.

"In Your Dreams" STEVIE NICKS: A Celebration "There is an Italian love song I wrote when I was in Italy last summer. There is a crazy, wild rock 'n' roll song called "The Ghosts Are Gone". There is a song about a novel called "Wide Sargasso Sea", the precursor to Jane Eyre. It was a crazy movie in the '80s that I loved. There are two tracks that Michael Campbell wrote that I wrote songs on top of, and they are just magical. There are love songs, hard rock 'n' roll songs, really contemplative songs and very Bob Dylan-y songs and there are lots of good poems."- Stevie Nicks INCLUDING: Music of The Gold Dust Woman, Rock Icon Stevie Nicks, of legendary Fleetwood Mac fame, as performed by the 2 best Tribute Artists in the Stevie Community.
