It's been a minute since I caught up with the fabulous Trisha Yearwood and we're cookin' up a great conversation in this podcast episode!

Fresh on the heels of the acclaimed release of her songwriting album, "The Mirror", we’re getting still more new music from her this year. "Christmastime" arrived on November 7, just in time for holiday listening!

This twelve-song collection features sweeping orchestral versions of holiday classics, a reimagining of “Pure Imagination,” from Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory, and a duet written and performed with hubby, Garth Brooks, "Merry Christmas Valentine."

Come on in and join us as we talk music, Christmastime, touring, and life! Trisha is the real deal! ~Delilah

Christmas is a time for sweet surprises... LeAnn Rimes thinks to too!

She's surprising us with a new album, "Greatest Hits Christmas" full of holiday classics like "Rocking Around The Christmas Tree" and songs from Hallmark movie soundtracks including, "You and Me and Christmas." Plus, its got two original new songs and a couple of duets - one with the sensational Luke Evans and another with Gavin DeGraw! Surprise! Surprise!

LeAnn is the most delightful, down-to-earth, REAL person! You're gonna love this conversation and maybe you'll think of another Christmas classic that could have been on the album, once you've listened.

And hey, after you've enjoyed this episode, look for LeAnn in her new role as Dixie on 9-1-1 Nashville. She's fantastic! ~ Delilah

A TSO Christmas concert is something my family looks forward to year after year. Once you attend, you'll be hooked too! Listen in!

Stage and screen legend, William H. Macy, joins us to talk about a powerful new film - in theaters this Friday 10/10 - "Soul on Fire". The movie is based on the true story of motivational author and speaker, John O'Leary, who survived near-fatal burns as a child, and went on to inspire millions.

William portrays Jack Buck, baseball announcer for the St. Louis Cardinals at the time of John's accident. Jack was instrumental in John's recovery and William nailed the part. He talks about the movie, of course, but we get to know William too. To our delight, he's a low-key, affable guy with a great deal of gratitude for his life and love for his family. Listen in to hear who inspired William to become the man his is today. ~ Delilah

You might not recognize her without the outlandish wigs she dons as Queen Charlotte in Bridgerton, but Golda Rosheuvel shines as the overall-sporting stoic aunty Dinah that takes in her abandoned niece in the adorable film, GROW.

You'll love watching her character's transformation from gruff to gratitude. A delightful fall film about gardening, pumpkin wars, and what it means to grow as a family! There's a host of mad-cap characters, high stakes and high jinx! In theaters October 17.

It was so lovely to speak with Golda. She's insightful, retrospective and absolutely amazing. Don't miss this conversation! ~ Delilah

When we "try" we're really just giving ourselves permission to postpone success, is the message from Carla Ondrasik, author of "Stop Trying: The life-transforming power of trying less and doing more." Carla's book, which hits shelves today, outlines the steps and strategies to train your brain to filter out the noise, make choices, and step into the activity you've decided upon to meet a goal.

A successful music executive who discovered and signed her now-famous husband, John Ondrasik of Five for Fighting, Carla knows what she's talking about. She's been putting it into practice for a very long time hitting her targets in business, in her marathon running days, in parenting, and as the president of her HOA. Now she can add "author" to the list of accomplishments her philosophy has led her to.

We had a delightful conversation. Come on in!
