Hey folks, this is Kevin. We have a very special treat today, a little something extra, and it features yours truly.

This is an episode of an entirely different podcast called Songwriter.

And in this brand new episode of Songwriter, I tell a true story.

And then a songwriter shares a song they wrote that was inspired by my story.

But it's not just any songwriter. It's the wonderful Carolyn Kendrick, who you can find at Carolyn Kendrick.com.

And Carolyn doesn't just compose and perform absolutely, gorgeously soulful songs.

But she produces two of my very favorite podcasts out there in the world.

She produces Your Wrong About with Sarah Marshall, and she produces You Are Good, also with Sarah,

and also with the lovely Alex Steed. Alex has been on risk, and I have been on You Are Good.

And now Carolyn and I are both on this episode. You're about to hear of the podcast Songwriter.

That is so beautifully produced and hosted by Ben Arthur.

You can learn more about Ben and the Songwriter podcast at songwriterpodcast.com.

I would be so excited if risk fans and fans of You Are Wrong About and fans of You Are Good and Songwriter all became fan friends.

And I just felt so honored and moved with how this episode of Songwriter turned out.

That I wanted to share it like this. It's vulnerable, it's real, and the song that Carolyn wrote for me has made me cry multiple times.

So enjoy it and share it and help spread the word about Carolyn's music, about You Are Wrong About, and You Are Good.

And of course, about the podcast you're just about to hear Songwriter.

This is Songwriter, the podcast that turns stories into songs. My name is Ben Arthur.

Today, we have a brand new song from Carolyn Kendrick, a musician and songwriter and podcast producer.

But first, the story that inspires the song by a different star in the podcast world.

I'm Kevin Allison. I've thought of myself mostly as a storyteller.

And someone who helps other people tell their stories, there's really kind of a therapeutic element to it in that I'm constantly unpacking who I am.
