100th Episode: Our Daughter-Saint Sinner-LIVE!
The music at the beginning and the end of every episode is the song "Calm Me Down" by our daughter Hannah, you may know her as Saint Sinner.
She is a Grammy-nominated singer/songwriter, an incredible producer, an innovative creator as a DJ artist, and she is an all-around amazing, inspiring human being with a beautiful soul.
This is our 100th episode and we want to do something special!
We don’t have guests on the show, but we are making an exception for this special episode, and we thought the perfect person would be our daughter Hannah - Saint Sinner.
We talk about what it’s like to be our kid, messy church stuff, coming out, her music, and she is going to sing for you!! :-)
