Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Evan Rachel Wood: Going Solo, Musical Awakenings and Becoming Lenore Pink (Episode 7)
Q: If you weren't acting or making music, what do you honestly think you'd be doing right now?
I'd likely gravitate toward interior design or therapy, drawn by an interest in how people think and behave, as well as an appreciation for space and design, which mirror how I approach storytelling in music.
Molly Tuttle: Guitar Style, Grammys, and Finding Her Sound
Q: Was this your first time on late-night television or have you done it before?
Molly confirms she had done Jimmy Kimmel once before and has not appeared on other late-night shows, finding the experience both challenging and rewarding.
Ingrid Andress: Authenticity, Growth and Moving Forward
Q: How did Now I Know evolve in meaning after the anthem incident?
It shifted from a relationship song to a broader meditation on life, growth, and choosing to move forward rather than clinging to past safety.
Ingrid Andress: Authenticity, Growth and Moving Forward
Q: What was the motivation behind moving to Nashville and pursuing songwriting there?
She wanted to be in a place where she could learn to write and develop her craft with a like-minded community, finding the right environment away from LA's broader entertainment scene.
Ingrid Andress: Authenticity, Growth and Moving Forward
Q: What song instantly transports you back to being a teenager?
Linkin Park; it anchors her memories and the era she lived through.
