Join Paul Gibbs for a brand new edition of the Jesscott Music Hour! This week, we dive into the archives to celebrate the anniversary of the first-ever live sports broadcast on KDKA and explore the curious history of the safety pin—an invention born out of a simple need to pay a debt. Plus, we dig into the world record for the largest fruit cobbler ever made!

In this episode of the Jesscott Music Hour, we explore the heart of the independent creator. From the Nashville-infused sounds of Jim Worthing to the powerhouse sibling harmonies of The Williams Singers, this hour is a journey through the "Songwriter's Life."

Host Paul Gibbs brings you a curated set of tracks designed to encourage you to be "Bold" and remind you that "Heaven's Got Your Back." We also take a lighthearted detour into American snack history—ever wonder why Twinkies taste the way they do? The answer involves a wartime shortage and a surprisingly fruity original recipe!

Featured Tracks:

• Nate Miller: "We Worship You Alone"
• Leah Paschall: "Bold (Just Keep Moving)"
• Dust and Grace: "Little Footprints"
• Richard Lynch: "Thankful Grateful & Blessed"

Take a breather from the noise with an hour of transformative melody. This week on the Jesscott Music Hour, we explore the "why" behind the music, from the 35th anniversary of Amy Grant’s Heart in Motion to a legendary radio rescue.

Did you know? In 1943, a 24-year-old Billy Graham and his small Chicago-area congregation stepped in to save the program Songs in the Night from cancellation. That move birthed a 70-year partnership with soloist George Beverly Shea and changed Christian radio history.

We’re carrying that same spirit of bold faith today, featuring powerhouse indie worship from Stephan Youngblood in the Philly/Jersey scene and the "undefeated" energy of DPB. Whether it's a "wake-up call" or a song of "home," this hour is a reminder that the final word belongs to God.

The Lineup:

1. Nicole Spowart - He Is Faithful
2. NCS Collective & Justin Barnett - Nothing But the Name (Live)
3. Stephan Youngblood - We Will Rise
4. Lauren Denise Byrd - My Strength And My Redeemer
5. DPB - Undefeated
