Summary

Our friends, Abner and Amanda from JOHNNYSWIM are back with us today and we got to sit down in person at the Hepzibah House in New York City to record this one.  Their brand new album, When The War is Over came out in February and y’all know we needed an album to be our soundtrack for the spring, so I hope you’ve already started listening to this one. It’s SO good. We talk about how this album was inspired by an intense season of change, our shared love for musical theater, and our favorite NYC restaurants. If you’re following along in your TSF Seasons Guidebook, we’re on page 49! Find the show notes here . . . . .
