For Dariann Leigh, this is so much more than country music. From her one-stop town in Karlstad, Minnesota (population 713), Dariann captured the star power of the original women of country music. From lyrics bleeding through static-filled radios and scratched CDs.

Dariann has been featured on The Boot, CMT, and more with her previous single's "Closer", "Let Me Go", "10,000 miles", and most recently with her new single "Leave". As a kid,…

This week we dive back into the world of the Independent Fundamental Baptist (IFB) movement. A church that many call a cult. We speak more specifically this time about their homes for "troubled teens". Some of these teens sent to these homes needed mental health counseling, some were being "ungodly", and others sent away for simple things such as smoking a cigarette. Regardless of the reasons we learn this week that these homes were at best ill equipped to help and at worse an abusive place that brutally punished and terrorized those they were asked to help. I talk with Amanda Householder who …

This week was an extra special interview as I interview TV writer, Stan Zimmerman, a man who has written for some of the biggest shows of the last 40 years. He wrote for shows like Gilmore Girls and Roseanne, both shows with a huge cult following. My personal favorite and ultimate "cult following" show The Golden Girls a show he was a writer for in the legendary first season of the show. We talk about Stan's upbringing and his love for TV at a young age (funny story there!), working with some of TV's biggest leading ladies (AKA Bea Arthur and BETTY FREAKING WHITE), and his current work with so…
