LOVE SOMEONE with Delilah

If he'd had 5 more minutes to think about it, the Goo Goo Dolls would have a different name, so frontman and guitarist Johnny Rzeznik tells me. I'm glad he didn't, it's so much fun to say!

He's with us today sharing info on the upcoming summer tour, the "angsty" music on a soon-to-be released new album, and the importance of showing up for his young daughter, being the "big person" he wishes he'd had in his life.

Authentic, kind, insightful - I loved getting to know the real John Rzeznik and so will you! ~ Delilah

"Girls" is a love letter to Rachel Platten's children--perhaps to herself as well. And if you have daughters (or you ARE a daughter) you'll embrace it as your own. The singer/songwriter that brought you "Fight Song" always writes from her heart and we feel her music in ours.

Join us for this sweet, intimate conversation where we speak of the dark times that inspire such powerful messages, and the light that's able to illuminate the chords and the lyrics. "Girls" has been out for a while, and her newest, "Mercy", has just been released. She's so amazing, you'll want to get to know her! ~ Delilah

One late evening, while indulging in my favorite insomniac habit of watching documentaries, I stumbled upon Angela Tucker's CLOSURE.  This film, created by Angela's husband on a flip-phone, was only meant for her at the time of it's making. It's the step-by-step journey she went on to find her birth parents and something of herself she felt was missing. Angela, a bright, beautiful black woman was raised by strong, loving white parents in a predominantly white community. They gave her a loving foundation, a family, and a future, but her features did not match theirs - those of us who have no experience with this may not understand how difficult that can be for a child to process. Angela found her birth family and discovered many things about herself along the way. She also found her life's work created from a passion to help and support others on similar quests; sharing CLOSURE is one way of doing so.  Angela is among those warriors helping to make the world a better place, One Heart at a Time! Join us in the studio as she shares her story. ~ Delilah   Learn more about your ad-choices at https://www.iheartpodcastnetwork.com
