Today's episode is a bit different.

It's a bit of a bitter sweet for me, as we'll be taking a brief break, returning for season 2 in September.

I am, however, going to drop a few episodes each month that are mostly short, simple, and sweet to encourage you through the sunburns and summer

picnics. But truth told, with planes beginning to hit the sky and a number of stages around the

globe ringing my phone, I'll be biting my time of flight delays and lukewarm coffee and

various airport lounges around the globe soon.

A good thing is, it may even be in your town. If so, I hope you will come say hi.

You won't even have to bring the chocolate chip cookies.

I mean, unless you want to.

But just an elbow bump and a smile

will do. But I want you to know something. Over the past how many ever months, we've been

through a lot together. Getting behind a microphone and telling stories of my ups and downs,

my squirrel chasing

Bernarduddle, or seeing life through the eyes of my kids, it's been and will continue

to be in the greatest stage I have ever walked across.

Had it not been for you, I honestly don't know if I would have gotten through this past year the way I have.

While a pianist to the core, my weeks have been completely centered around each Tuesday.

The next story, the next, oh, I can't wait to share this with my listeners.

And I owe it all to you.

Thank you.

This podcast is a passion piece for me.

I created it to stay connected with my music audience, and before I knew it, it has now grown to 20,000 listeners for each episode.
