Summary

Does she sound like Adele, Billie Eilish, or Ella Fitzgerald? Glenn can’t pick just one in this very special, music-filled edition of "The Glenn Beck Podcast" with rising star Emma Nissen. From the night B.B. King hit on Glenn’s wife to Emma wiping her runny nose right before shaking John Legend’s hand, the stories flow between live renditions of Emma’s songs. She reveals how a hemorrhaging vocal cord forced her out of college, led her to serve God in Sweden during COVID, and ultimately birthed her first song. She then unpacks the limits of contemporary Christian music, what’s missing in Taylor Swift’s love songs, and how “Jesus and jazz” is the sound the next generation has been craving. With searing honesty, she opens up about her battles with anxiety, eating disorders, and body dysmorphia — and the cognitive shift that finally allowed her to declare, “I am beautiful.” Sit back and enjoy the sound of the next generation’s Jesus music: full of unpredictable scat, unbounded joy, and the still, small voice of God.
