Kate came of age with radio that delivered 41 00:02:49,440 --> 00:02:53,360 Speaker 1: everything from Pearl Jam to De La Soul and so 42 00:02:53,440 --> 00:02:58,200 Speaker 1: many women Billie Holiday, Eded James, Joni Mitchell, Alanis Morris, 43 00:02:58,280 --> 00:03:03,119 Speaker 1: sat Madonna, Patty Grim and Chrissy Heine who captured all 44 00:03:03,240 --> 00:03:07,040 Speaker 1: the emotions of teenager feels. Today, we're going to get 45 00:03:07,040 --> 00:03:09,120 Speaker 1: a chance to talk to Kate and ask her what 46 00:03:09,280 --> 00:03:12,480 Speaker 1: took her so long to release her album. But first 47 00:03:12,480 --> 00:03:14,960 Speaker 1: we're going to drop a few words about a sponsor 48 00:03:15,400 --> 00:03:19,760 Speaker 1: that helps to make these conversations happen.

It was sort of this sort of disc 335 00:20:01,080 --> 00:20:04,000 Speaker 2: hook in the writing sketching process, but it really was 336 00:20:04,160 --> 00:20:09,360 Speaker 2: just a hook. And when we came when Danny kind 337 00:20:09,359 --> 00:20:11,439 Speaker 2: of got all of the you know, we had written 338 00:20:11,440 --> 00:20:13,720 Speaker 2: twenty six songs. When Danny had got the whole project 339 00:20:13,720 --> 00:20:15,880 Speaker 2: and was sitting with it and kind of really producing 340 00:20:15,920 --> 00:20:20,920 Speaker 2: all of the music, he basically said, I got to 341 00:20:20,960 --> 00:20:23,439 Speaker 2: figure out talk about Love because it's such a good 342 00:20:23,600 --> 00:20:26,199 Speaker 2: It's just such a good hook, and I already had 343 00:20:26,200 --> 00:20:29,119 Speaker 2: written so many of the lyrics and I loved what 344 00:20:29,200 --> 00:20:33,480 Speaker 2: I wanted to say, So talk about Love really was 345 00:20:33,520 --> 00:20:35,880 Speaker 2: that the one song on the album that we kind 346 00:20:35,920 --> 00:20:40,080 Speaker 2: of sort of leaned into. It's a little bit it's 347 00:20:40,080 --> 00:20:42,760 Speaker 2: probably a poppyst song on the album other than Lying 348 00:20:42,760 --> 00:20:45,840 Speaker 2: to Myself, And it's really just about why is it 349 00:20:45,880 --> 00:20:48,600 Speaker 2: so hard to talk about the one thing we need 350 00:20:48,640 --> 00:20:52,520 Speaker 2: the most? And for me, it's a very simple way 351 00:20:52,760 --> 00:20:56,639 Speaker 2: of like communicating that we need to be connecting. 352 00:20:57,440 --> 00:21:02,879 Speaker 1: That embodies my entire career fifty years on the radio 353 00:21:03,520 --> 00:21:07,440 Speaker 1: in one set of lyrics. That's my old show is 354 00:21:07,960 --> 00:21:11,080 Speaker 1: about connecting. We need to connect. We need to connect, 355 00:21:11,119 --> 00:21:14,080 Speaker 1: we need to share our heart, we need to stop fighting, 356 00:21:14,119 --> 00:21:17,200 Speaker 1: we need to stop being divisive and talk about love. 357 00:21:17,520 --> 00:21:21,959 Speaker 2: That's it, we really do. And it's the it's if anything, 358 00:21:22,080 --> 00:21:26,159 Speaker 2: Like I just don't understand why it's so hard for 359 00:21:26,240 --> 00:21:30,520 Speaker 2: people to talk about it and why it's where people 360 00:21:30,560 --> 00:21:32,560 Speaker 2: get all. I mean, I guess at this point in 361 00:21:32,560 --> 00:21:35,040 Speaker 2: my life, I do understand why it can be hard 362 00:21:35,119 --> 00:21:38,320 Speaker 2: for people. But like you have to break it open, 363 00:21:39,119 --> 00:21:40,879 Speaker 2: you know, And that's kind of what the bridge is. 364 00:21:40,960 --> 00:21:43,119 Speaker 2: It's sort of like I'm standing right in front of you, 365 00:21:43,200 --> 00:21:46,359 Speaker 2: like let's like just take it. Just like open it, 366 00:21:46,520 --> 00:21:51,359 Speaker 2: open your heart and really like be open to love. 367 00:21:52,080 --> 00:21:54,919 Speaker 2: We know what the antidote is to all of the 368 00:21:54,960 --> 00:21:58,119 Speaker 2: stuff that's going on in the world, right but we 369 00:21:58,240 --> 00:22:03,200 Speaker 2: still refuse so many people refuse to like lead with it, 370 00:22:03,359 --> 00:22:06,960 Speaker 2: and that is love and of all of the things 371 00:22:07,000 --> 00:22:09,920 Speaker 2: that people want you as a you know, personality or 372 00:22:09,960 --> 00:22:12,399 Speaker 2: a celebrity to get involved with politics or this that 373 00:22:12,440 --> 00:22:15,040 Speaker 2: I'm like, I can't. I just want to talk about 374 00:22:15,280 --> 00:22:18,240 Speaker 2: I just want to talk about connecting and. 375 00:22:18,240 --> 00:22:23,680 Speaker 1: Love and therein lies everything. There in lies the antidote, 376 00:22:24,320 --> 00:22:30,840 Speaker 1: the healing balm of everything that is wrong with our world. 377 00:22:31,600 --> 00:22:34,199 Speaker 2: Yeah, and you know it is in every scripture. It 378 00:22:34,240 --> 00:22:38,240 Speaker 2: doesn't matter where you come from, what you study, how 379 00:22:38,280 --> 00:22:38,760 Speaker 2: you pray. 380 00:22:39,600 --> 00:22:42,880 Speaker 1: Love is the answer.
