  • What a happy accident

    Forget how I stumbled across this pod, but I’m another sad-music queen. I’ve found my people! Keep up the great interviews, please. (Tiny quibble: It’s also okay to talk a little slower sometimes, leave some space between big thoughts. Just like these artists sometimes do!)
