LOVE SOMEONE with Delilah

ELTON JOHN & BRANDI CARLILE: "Who Believes In Angels?" Feb 11, 2025

This Valentine's week, we've been given a gift from the heart - from music legends Sir Elton John and Brandi Carlile. "Who Believes In Angels?" the single, dropped last week, and an album of the same name will be available in April.

Sharing generously of their time, these two dropped in to tell me all about the collaborative project, the highs, the lows, and the splendid outcome! Turns out, the making of the album was filmed and at some point we'll all get to watch the process. There's so much to look forward to but for right now, enjoy the conversation and this brilliant new song, "Who Believes In Angels?". (I do!) ~ Delilah

CRAIG T. NELSON: "Green and Gold" Jan 28, 2025

Oh my! What a treat it was to talk with Craig T. Nelson today, who is starring in a new movie, "Green and Gold", in theaters January 31st.

In it, he portrays Buck, a fourth-generation Wisconsin dairy farmer who, along with his granddaughter, fight to preserve their way of life, as small family farms disappear across America. Facing foreclosure, they wager everything on their beloved Green Bay Packers in a hail-Mary effort to save their little chunk of dirt.

Craig T. is warm and gracious, earnest in his support of America's farmers, and hopeful for their future. Don't miss this conversation and don't even think about missing "Green and Gold"! ~ Delilah

FAITH BROUSSARD CADE: Shine Bright Anyway Jan 21, 2025

Seven years ago life came crashing into Faith Broussard Cade in the form of a tractor-trailor rig that hit her car from behind. She sustained a concussion and a traumatic brain injury. Unable to return to her career as a school counselor, and struggling in her role as wife and mother, Faith had to figure out how to create a life where her injuries were a part of her story but didn't define her. Her practice of writing herself daily little "love notes" that reminded her that she WAS ENOUGH, and the decision to post them to social media, was transformative.

Now a virtual mental health counselor, and a content creator that shares about her personal healing journey to inspire women to prioritize peace, boundaries, and emotional well-being in their lives and relationships, Faith add's "Shine Bright Anyway - 90 Affirmations That Declare You Are Enough When The World Says You're Not" to her long list of personal successes.

What a great way to kick-off Season 7 of "LOVE SOMEONE with Delilah!"

MICHAEL BUBLÉ: "Maybe This Christmas" Dec 24, 2024

Nobody, but nobody, does Christmas like Michael Bublé does Christmas!

This year he's gifted us with a beautiful new single, "Maybe This Christmas", recorded with Carly Pearce. He calls it "a special song that comes from a deep place" wrapping up his hope, his faith and his humanity, in a prayer for grace for himself and the world. I cried when I heard it. You will too.

Michael took on a new role recently, as a coach on Season 26 of The Voice, and was gushing about it and the friendships he's forged with the other coaches when we sat down to chat. (Soon after our conversation, he became the first coach in the history of the show to have the top two artists on his team on his debut season!) He debuted "Maybe This Christmas" on the season finale, and today I get to share it all with you.

Merry Christmas from Michael and me! ~ Delilah

Hungry for a little inspiration? I've got a heaping helping of it on today's podcast episode.

By shining a light on important social issues, Aloe hopes to empower individuals and communities, reminding us all of our shared responsibility to uplift one another and contribute to a brighter future.

ANDREW RIDGELEY: WHAM! Last Christmas 40th Anniversary Nov 19, 2024

It's not Christmas without "Last Christmas", released by English pop duo WHAM! 40 long years ago. I'm in disbelief that I've been spinning that tune for as long as I have.

George Michael and Andrew Ridgeley - as WHAM! - set out to conquer the music world in 1982. They were still teenagers! And it was in 1986 they performed together as WHAM! for the last time after successfully completing their mission. Hit after hit - "Wake Me Up Before You Go Go", "Freedom," "I’m Your Man", and of course, "Last Christmas", made their time in the spotlight white-hot. The lifelong friends became one of the most globally successful pop acts of the 1980s, selling more than thirty million records worldwide!

Join Andrew Ridgeley and me as we talk of the old days, of his friend, George Michael, of the Netflix's feature documentary, "WHAM!", the BBC1 production, "WHAM!: Last Christmas Unwrapped",and so much more. We've saved it for someone special!

NICK WINTON, JR.: "One Life" Mar 26, 2024

Sir Nicholas 'Nicky' Winton was a young London stockbroker who visited Prague in December of 1938 where he discovers a large population of refugees fleeing the Nazis - and he knew he must do something, at least for the children.
Back in London, Nick spent months arranging for foster families, passports, and documentation that would usher hundreds of children to safety... 669 children! 50 years later his story came to light in a remarkable way. Nick Winton lived his 106 years humbly, with the idea that service to others isn't a calling, it's simply what one does.
Today, his son, Nick Winton, Jr., a soft-spoken, compassionate, storyteller joins us to talk about his dad and the film "One Life", starring Sir Anthony Hopkins, that is in theaters now. You'll be so moved! ~ Delilah

That he gave up boxing after a near-death experience, only to return to the ring and reclaim the title of Heavy Weight Champion of the World? It's all in the movie, "Big George Foreman" in theaters on April 28. But you'll want to listen to our conversation first. It's ahhhhmazing! ~ Delilah

CHARLIE MACKESY: "The Boy, the mole, the fox and the Horse" Encore! Apr 11, 2023

Waaaay back in November of 2021 I interviewed a delightful British author/illustrator named Charlie Mackesy. Charlie had written a book that the entire world had fallen in love with; "The Boy, the mole, the fox, and the Horse." Its message was one of hope, compassion, and above all, kindness.

I was so thrilled last month when the animated film - that Charlie was hard at work on when we spoke - took home an Oscar at the 95th Academy Awards. The movie is just one more way to share Charlie's kindness with the world. I felt our conversation was worth and encore performance. Enjoy! ~ Delilah

It began, "my brain and heart divorced a decade ago over who was to blame about how big of a mess I have become.." and we could all relate.

This father of three and stand-up comic had turned to writing some years earlier to try and sort out the tsunami of anxious thoughts that threatened to overtake him and carry him out into a sea of defeat. It worked. Kind of. It's a work in progress. But there IS progress. For him. For me. For countless others who have discovered his work.

Stephen Siller, a young firefighter from Staten Island was one of thousands of lives lost while trying to save others from the collapsing twin towers. Afterward, his family, lead by brother, Frank Siller, started the Tunnel to Towers Foundation with the mission to pay off the mortgages of fallen first responders, easing the financial burden of loved ones left behind. Since that time, they've expanded their scope to encompass families of all first responders who don't make it home, and are building some of the most advanced "smart" homes for mortally wounded military personnel. It's their way of honoring their brother's life and by taking the advice of St. Francis, "Brothers and sisters, while you have time, do good." This is a powerful, moving, podcast episode on the eve of the 20th anniversary of 9/11. Prepare your hearts. ~ Delilah

P!NK: "All I Know So Far" Jun 22, 2021

The BEST conversations I have with my guests are those that happen on-the-fly. Unscripted, with little planning, and straight from the heart. Like today's podcast with P!NK! It was so unexpected.

She pulled over, with kids Willow and Jameson in the back seat, to spend a little minute with us. We chatted about her new single - and the fantastic documentary created from filming her 2019 world tour - "All I Know So Far." Turns out she knows quite a lot! Like how to be true to yourself, how to give yourself grace, and how to pour yourself into your passions. You won't want to miss this sweet episode! ~ Delilah

Thirty years after the release of her mega chart-topping album, Amy Grant's heart is still very much in motion! The beloved singer-songwriter sits down with me today for a looong lovely chat. We cover a good many topics, all of which boil down to one thing - saying "Yes" to the possibilities. Saying "yes" to the things that come your way, even if they're out of your comfort zone, or you don't feel quite prepared. Amy says her heart is still opening to new possibilities and she is loving the people and experiences the practice of saying "yes" is bringing into her life.

MERCY SHIPS Apr 27, 2021

Mercy me, do I have a fabulous podcast to share with you! We're doing a deep dive into the medical ministry of Mercy Ships, a 40-year old organization that sends floating hospitals into some of the poorest communities on earth. From humble beginnings, Mercy Ships has been able to complete over 100,000 life-changing surgeries and is dedicated to performing hundreds of thousands more, for people who otherwise would not have access to medical care. What's even more amazing, is that the organization is powered by prayer, donations, and volunteer efforts. Today I'm joined by Kerry Peterson, VP of Advancement at Mercy Ships, and 3 incredible volunteers, Rayanne, Marta, and Nate, who will share their experiences with us. We'll close with information as to how YOU might become involved, either by volunteering your time and skills, by donating, or by your prayers and blessings. Join us! ~ Delilah

LEE ISAAC CHUNG Mar 09, 2021

Fresh from winning a Golden Globe for his semi-autobiographical film, MINARI, Lee Isaac Chung is my very special guest on LOVE SOMEONE today. A soft-spoken and deeply insightful man, Isaac tells me how the story honors his grandmother, who he felt was largely invisible figure during the very formative years of his youth. Minari, a common plant grown abundantly in their native Korea, symbolizes the restorative influence his grandmother had on his family... But I don't want to get ahead of myself or give too much away about this beautiful, and brilliantly cast film.

Listen in, and then, when given the opportunity, watch Golden Globe winning, Minari! ~ Delilah

LEE BRICE Feb 09, 2021

Country music is part romance, part mystery, and part yearning for a simpler time. Lee Brice brings that all to the table - and to our podcast today - with "Hey World" his 5th studio album. This larger than life country artist is kindness itself, and that theme runs through all his music, old and new. I was especially touched by the singles, "Sons & Daughters" which speaks to the single truth that for all our differences, every one of us "is somebody's son, somebody's daughter" as well as "Lies" uncovering the sad reality that "the cruelest lies of all the lies we tell are the one's we tell ourselves..." Of course there's upbeat, fun, and funky tracks too, like "One Of Them Girls", "Atta Boy" and "Don't Need No Reason." "Hey World" is a much needed anthem to help us navigate the crazy on our way back to some much needed stability. Pull on yer boots and join us! ~ Delilah

KATRINA MCGHEE Jan 26, 2021

February is dedicated to matters of the heart, and my guest today, Katrina McGhee, from the American Heart Association is here to encourage us to make sure that we care for our hearts! Shockingly, heart disease is the leading cause of death for women, and too many people are unaware of this. Awareness, education, and even small changes in our eating and lifestyle habits can change this story. Katrina will tell us how it's done. She'll also encourage us to WEAR RED on February 5, to help bring awareness to women's heart health, and to strike up a conversation with those in your circle about the importance of self-care. Additionally, Katrina founded the "Loving On Me Academy" which is your go-to place if you're looking to put yourself in the driver's seat of your life and your health. She'll tell us all about in today's conversation. I'll keep doling out advice on keeping your emotional heart healthy, and Katrina will continue telling you how to keep your physical heart beating long and strong. Join us! ~ Delilah

LESLIE ODOM, JR. Dec 22, 2020

Ever heard of a Broadway production called "Hamilton"?? How 'bout the lead character, Aaron Burr??? If you're nodding, yes, yes, yes, you'll be excited to hear that Tony Award winner, Leslie Odom, Jr., will be joining us today on my podcast!

Though Broadway is taking a break, Leslie has been doing anything but - he's been a busy busy man! For one, he's released a Christmas album, two, he stars in a movie opening on Christmas Day, AND, this past Sunday, he hosted the CBS special, "A Home For The Holiday's" to help raise awareness of foster care adoption. He's everywhere - including here with us!

JOSH GROBAN Dec 08, 2020

Josh and I go waaaaaaay back, before he was a global superstar (but very well on his way!) His recordings have become nearly synonymous with the Delilah Christmas program; that smooth, soulful, touch-your-heart sound. It's been a while since we touched base though, so I'm so tickled to have him join me on the podcast today.

Mr. Groban has a beautiful new album that dropped last week, 'Harmony' - it includes some covers, some collaborations, and some brand new pieces that weren't originally intended for the project, but came from the time Josh had in his studio during the spring's lock-down. (The incredible music that has come from this terrible situation reminds us that life is full of silver linings!)

We get to hear all about the album and all about what's going on with the one and only Josh Groban - including musings on how learning to cook and making music have several similarities! Join us! ~ Delilah

Please excuse my excited squealing! Dolly's been beloved by my grandparents, parents, myself and siblings, as well as my children and grandchildren. She's defied circumstances, stereotypes, gender bias... and age! She is so well known, and so well loved, this guest really needs no introduction.

Ms. Dolly Parton is my guest today, here to talk about life, how she's kept busy during COVID, how she handles stress and negativity (hint, she doesn't - she prays and gives it to GOD) and how her mission in life is to spread joy, and love, and music! We'll talk about her new holiday album, "A Holly Dolly Christmas", all the guests collaborations, and so so so much more! Come on in! ~ Delilah

KATHIE LEE GIFFORD Oct 27, 2020

What I LOVE about having a podcast is being able to have real, uninterrupted, conversations with interesting, talented and inspirational people. This episode of "LOVE SOMEONE with Delilah" is just that kind of conversation, with a woman who truly has and does it all! Morning co-host of the most popular programs on television, singer, composer, author, actor, and loving wife and mother, the incredible Kathie Lee Gifford joins us today for some girl talk, and the inside scoop on her new movie, "Then Came You." It's a delightful rom-com - proving our second act can be just as scintillating as the first - filmed in the Scotland Highlands and co-staring the hilarious Craig Ferguson. Of course, Kathie Lee wrote the screenplay and the soundtrack... Join us as she dishes on her co-stars and why she chose them for their roles, how she's navigated life after losing her husband, and what might be next for this multifaceted sparkling gem of a woman. It's all here! ~ Delilah

Ms. Carrie Underwood joins us on this episode of LOVE SOMEONE with Delilah to talk about her new Christmas album, "My Gift."

KEVIN FINCH Aug 25, 2020

What's the first thing you think when you get lousy service at a restaurant or at a hotel? Most of us are not happy, we're paying for service and expect to be treated like royalty! Today's guest on LOVE SOMEONE, Kevin Finch, of BIG TABLE is serving up some food for thought and reminding us that a healthy dose of compassion feeds the soul.

A once upon a time, pastor-by-day and food critic-by-night, Kevin, who spent a lot of time ministering to people, sensed a very great great need in the service industry - if you combine food service and hotel workers, this sector far exceeds any other organized work force in America. It's made up of some of the most vulnerable, at-risk people in our society. Low pay, long hours, crazy shifts, covered by at-risk teens, single parents, immigrant populations, and those who have served time... Barely living paycheck-to-paycheck with no guaranteed hours or benefits. It's a population plagued by addictions and circumstances beyond the comprehension of most of us who go out to dinner or on a vacation.

Kevin is working to fix this, flipping the script in a completely novel way. He's setting up his BIG TABLE (it's real and seats 48!) in communities like his home town of Spokane, Seattle and San Diego - and hoping to be in 10 cities across the country in 10 years. He serves those who serve us at his pop-up underground restaurant - and in daily conversations over cups of coffee. Whether it's much need transportation, supplies for a new baby, or educational assistance, you never know what might be dished up by BIG TABLE. Join us for one of the most fascinating stories I've heard in a loooong time! ~ Delilah

JON BON JOVI Aug 11, 2020

The novel coronavirus pandemic brought confusion and frustration to the world. The question, "What do we do now" echoed around the globe. Jon Bon Jovi answered that question, in action, word, and song. "When you can't do what you do, do what you can." was the caption to an instagram shot of him washing dishes at JB's Soul Kitchen, a community restaurant where "all are welcome, and locally-sourced ingredients, dignity, and respect are always on the menu." Those words became the chorus to another Bon Jovi anthem, one that is sorely needed right now, providing purpose and passion at a time of great need.

Jon joins me today to talk about the single, "Do What You Can", and his upcoming album, "Bon Jovi 2020" set for an October release. The band decided not to just postpone their world tour, but to cancel it altogether and refund ticket purchases, because, as he said, "People need money in their pockets right now." Listen in, Jon is as warm and wonderful as ever, and has some important advice to all Americans. ~ Delilah

HARRY CONNICK, JR Jul 28, 2020

My heart be still! Talking with me today is one of America's most endearing heart-throbs. Harry Connick, Jr. is dialin' in to share the amazing journey he's recently taken with his film-maker daughter, Georgia.

Traveling over 3500 miles in a rented RV, this dynamic duo set out from their home in Connecticut stopping in numerous cities and towns along the route to listen to the stories of essential workers - the janitorial staff and garbage collectors, grocery and gas station attendants, truckers, food preparers, and more. They listened, they learned, and many celebrity friends "Zoomed" in too, giving their heartfelt thanks to these heroes who represent the heartbeat of America.

With a television crew following and filming (while practicing safe distancing and mask-wearing) the Connick's incredible journey came to an end in New Orleans. The footage captured became the CBS special "United We Sing: A Grammy Salute To The Unsung Heroes" which can now be seen on CBS All-Access, and Harry's new single "Stars Still Shine" can be downloaded where ever you get your music. All proceeds from the single will benefit the Ellis Marsalis Center for Music,- a phenomenal organization I encourage you to check out. Thanks for joining us! ~ Delilah

CHRISSY METZ Jul 14, 2020

She plays Kate Pearson on the hit show, "This Is Us," but her name is Chrissy Metz, and if you didn't know it because of her TV show, or her role in the movie, "Breakthrough", you're now going to know it as a recording artist! Last year Chrissy joined me on the podcast to tell us all about her movie, but somehow we neglected to talk about the fact that she'd lent her talent to the soundtrack - this lady has some serious pipes as well as acting chops! She's now signed with a record label, and is working on a full album (no thanks to the coronavirus!) Her first single, "Talking To God" is getting a lot of airtime on Christian, Country, and A/C stations - yes, it's THAT good! Find it, download it, listen to it, then join us right here on "LOVE SOMEONE with Delilah" and we'll give you the backstory, the continuing story, and all kinds of stories in between! ~ Delilah

SHANNON MCPEEK Jun 23, 2020

The vast majority of us have, at one time or another, benefitted from the TLC of a nurse. It's a grueling profession with long hours on your feet, strange shifts, not entirely pleasant duties (understatement!) and is often taken for granted. So here's a question for you, who takes care of the care givers?

Shannon McPeek has always likes hepling others, this personality trait led her to the nursing profession, which she finds immenently rewarding, but sooooo stressful! Six months into her new vocation, she hit a profound low, and soon after determined that not only would she find ways to reduce her own anxiety, but other's as well. Enter "Operation Happy Nurse" an on-line support community offering a boutique menu of self-help services; fitness instruction, community forums, book club, nutrition advice, and give-aways (LOTS of give-aways!)

Or as Tracee puts it, "It's not about a color BLIND world, but a color FULL world,. That's where all the humanity and the robustness of life comes from!" Join us! ~ Delilah

KATY PERRY May 26, 2020

Where are you with your dreams? Are you still pursuing them? Are you living them? Have they been put on a shelf or have some been taken from you? Katy Perry is a woman with dreams and I am so thrilled for her that one of her BIG dreams is coming true - the dream of motherhood. Katy broke the news to her fans through - what else - music! With her single, "Never Worn White" and she's now released another chart-topper, "Daisies."

Of "Daisies" she tells me, it's about the noise... All the racket that can occur when you 're working toward a dream when others, even well-meaning family and friends, want to weigh in, and how important it is to create your own path in life. She also says it speaks to the times we're living in now. The "pause" button has been pressed and we're all anxious for "play" to resume, and when that happens, all of us need to take our dreams off the shelf and start living them!

JEWEL Apr 14, 2020

Mental health is beginning to lose the stigma its been wrapped in for much of recent history, but there is sooo much work still to be done, and sooo many conversation still to be had on this topic. Singer, songwriter, activist, and scholar, Jewel, has spent much of her adult life researching and enacting effective ways to deal with anxiety and depression, and then share her work with the world. She'll tell you (and I'll agree with her) that as obsessed as we all are with "hacks" they simply don't exist for getting through grief and emotional healing. What does work? Join us on this episode of LOVE SOMEONE with Delilah as we discuss her theories and she talks about the book she's working on. This is Part 2 of the most fascinating conversations I've ever had! ~ Delilah

JEWEL Mar 24, 2020

Show of hands for all of you who love singer/songwriter Jewel... Mine's up in the air! Since her break-out hit, "Hands" in the fall of 1998, this sweet and sparkly Jewel is much beloved, but I'm willing to guess that many of you are just as clueless as I was as to the absolute powerhouse of intellect this woman is!

Raised in circumstances of dire need, without the security most of us have always taken for granted, Jewel has always been a crafty survivor, but she has grown into so much more. Her philanthropy stretches across continents and is also strongly felt on our shores. She started by offering to others, who were looking for ways to bolster their mental health, the coping practices she developed for herself during a brief time of homelessness. From there, she's developed several more projects, each targeted at helping vulnerable populations. Her latest work is a film, "Lost In America" about our homeless youth, and of course, her own music provides the soundtrack. The single, "No More Tears" is out now, and we're going to talk about that and so much more on this episode of Love Someone with Delilah. It's Part 1 of 2 and I know you're going to want to join me next time to hear the rest! ~ Delilah

Ever have the desire to be your own boss? To take a passion of yours to the next level and offer it up, and get paid for your time and talent? If so, then my guest today on LOVE SOMEONE with Delilah is definitely someone you want to get to know! Lindsay Teague Moreno is a married mama of three little ones, a successful business owner, podcaster, and author. Her book, "Boss Up!" was my book club pick for last September, and I am super happy to be able to talk with her today. She's an ardent advocate for women entrepreneurs, and those who want it all but give themselves 50 excuses why "right now" isn't the right time. Lindsay helps women gain the confidence to know that having ambition doesn't diminish their roles of wife or mother, it ENHANCES it! It is not only OK to want it all, it's also very possible! I'm so glad you've decided to join us for this episode, ~ Delilah

DAVID FRANCISCO Feb 25, 2020

David Francisco Platillero is a survivor. Young, handsome, healthy, and talented, he was living his dream when IT happened. Hit by a distracted driver while riding his bicycle, David was gravely injured and told he would never walk again... HA! His lion heart led him through the pain of his injuries, surgeries, and months of grueling therapy to the love of his life, Kristi. The two now walk together through life and feel like they can face any challenge it has to offer.

David has released a CD, and companion book, called LIONHEART; an inspiring story of love, forgiveness, and the power of music. He and his beautiful bride Kristi join me today to talk about their journey and their mission of empowering others to face their fears, even when all seems lost. Lionheart is also my February book club pick. Visit my Book Club at Delilah.com to learn more, and go to www.DavidFranciscoMusic.com to keep up with David's work! ~ Delilah

ELIZABETH ST.HILAIRE Feb 11, 2020

This Valentine's Day podcast episode is all about The Heart. Specifically, about the Healing Heart... and even more specifically, how art can be a soothing balm for an aching heart.

My guest, Elizabeth St. Hilaire, is a successful artist, teacher, author and innovator. I stumbled onto her work when I was grieving deeply, and found submerging myself into the art techniques she developed (and went on to share with the world,) had an immensely therapeutic and transformative effect. Elizabeth's own heart is made of gold, and she and I have become good friends. I'm so happy that she agreed to join me on LOVE SOMEONE to encourage anyone and everyone to give art and creativity another try. If you've experienced a loss and/or find yourself in place of vulnerability, or if you're the type to proclaim that you don't have any talent or aren't creative... this episode is for you. Give us a listen. ~ Delilah

CELINE DION Jan 28, 2020

Oh Celine! How do we love thee... in so many many ways! Almost no one says "Valentine's" like Celine, or rather SINGS Valentine's! We are so fortunate that THIS Valentine's Day, she's back- better, stronger, and more courageous than ever!

Courage, her new album, is all about where Celine is right now in her life - and it will resonate with millions of her fans that’ll hear a little of themselves in her music. She’s learning to live without her husband by her side, but instead within her heart. She’s watching her boys grow and change and championing their growth as well as her own. She’s on the road without her family for the first time, since the kids are involved in school and sports and in very good hands back home...

It’s a time of intense challenge, discovery, and COURAGE and on this episode of LOVE SOMEONE with Delilah, she's going to share a big dose of it with us! Courage is good medicine ~ Delilah

RICHARD MARX Jan 14, 2020

How many times do you think I've played "Right Here Waiting For You" since it was released in 1989? I wouldn't even be able to guess, but let's just say A LOT!!!! With me in the studio on this episode of LOVE SOMEONE with Delilah, is the man behind the music, the incredible Richard Marx!

We're talkin' life, love, and music music music. Jump in and catch up with Richard and I. You know you want to hear about life with Daisy Fuentes, his boys, his past, his present, and what the future holds. (Hint: Music!)

SANTA & JOHN CHURCHILL Dec 24, 2019

There's a wonderful organization in the Chicago area called Santa's Volunteers, who generously enable hundred of families (nearly 1000!) to celebrate the holidays with food, gifts, and the basic necessities of a cold mid-western winter. John Churchill is the chairman of the board, and he met with me at the Museum of Radio Broadcasting to tell me all about this amazing group of glad tidings. Another guy dropped in also - he was wearing a fuzzy red suit, trimmed in fur. He had a snowy white beard, rosy red cheeks, eyes that twinkled, and lots of ho ho holiday spirit! 4 of my kids joined us too - won't you? It's Christmas and we are feeling The Spirit here on LOVE SOMEONE with Delilah!

DELILAH: Gratitude Nov 26, 2019

On today's episode of LOVE SOMEONE with Delilah, I'm celebrating this season of gratitude with you!

The most common question I'm asked, is how I've continued to do what I do for all the years I've been doing it? (Radio that is!) And the answer is this - because of the amazing stories my listeners share with me, and the thread of gratitude that seems to run through them all. Life is a stormy adventure to be sure, but those that not only survive, but thrive, have one thing in common - an attitude of gratitude. And these are the folks that inspire me day after day, to get up, to do my radio program, to care for my family, and to LIVE! Live to the fullest, grateful for all I've ever experienced, all the experiences yet to come, and holding nothing back...

Have a wonderful and blessed Thanksgiving my friends, I am so very grateful for all of you. ~ Delilah

SHELTER FROM THE STORM Nov 19, 2019

In the studio with me today is Wayne Chimenti, a retired tall boat captain, and an active program director and mentor to youth involved in The Community Boat Project of Port Hadlock, a maritime community in Washington State. Wayne is accompanied by a few of his interns working on the Shelter From The Storm, program, a subset of the larger organization that is busy building tiny homes.

I found Wayne and his group of merry builders when trolling through on-line classified ads late one evening. I ran across a tiny home for sale that caught my fancy. When I made further inquiries, not only did I learn about the item that had been posted, I found about an incredible group of people working to better the lives of students through some amazing experiential learning. I had to have these folks share their work and their mission with you on LOVE SOMEONE with Delilah.

Get ready to be inspired! ~ Delilah

KRISTIN CHENOWETH Nov 12, 2019

With me today on LOVE SOMEONE with Delilah, is Emmy and Tony Award winner singer, actor, educator, and downright beauty, inside and out, Ms. Kristin Chenoweth. I became a fan of Kristin's after watching her perform on Broadway in Wicked. In fact, I saw her in that role at least three times!

Kristin has a new album out, "For the Girls," a celebration of music’s most passionate women from one of Broadway’s most vibrant stars. It includes songs such as “The Way We Were,” (Streisand) “When I Fall in Love” (Garland) and - my favorite - "Desperado" (Ronstadt). If you're lucky, you can catch Kristin this November at one of only 8 performances on Broadway as she premiers the songs from this new hit album.

In addition to her singing and acting career, Kristin's heart is in coaching and supporting the arts through the Kristin Chenoweth Arts and Education Foundation. This started after the Broken Arrow Performing Arts Center, in her home town of Broken Arrow, Oklahoma, named a theater after her. Kristin felt a responsibility to uphold the honor they had placed in her and started teaching a yearly master class to a few high school and college students. That evolved into the Kristin Chenoweth Broadway Bootcamp, supporting 50 students from all over the nation. She's now in the process of building a creative arts center that will cater to the underserved youth of Oklahoma providing training in Crafts, Drawing, Design, and Writing - as well as serving dinner to it's enrollees!

Kristin is doing her part, to make the world a better place one heart at a time and I am so happy that we were given this time to get to know her better! ~ Delilah

MAX LUCADO Oct 22, 2019

Max Lucado is one of my favorite authors and I never miss and opportunity to talk with him! In his new book, How Happiness Happens, pastor and best selling author Max Lucado, shares the unexpected path to a lasting happiness, one that produces reliable joy in any season of life. Based on the teachings of Jesus and backed by modern research, Max tells us and shows us that Happiness happens when we give it away! He shares his personal experiences and backs his suggestions with research, for example how modern imaging shows the pleasure centers of the brain lighting up, even when we THINK of doing something good for someone else! Stop waiting for others to make you happy. Be the family member who offers to wash the dishes after dinner. Be the colleague who serves the coffee at the next staff meeting. Volunteer at a soup kitchen...There are innumerable ways to be a giver! If you haven't been able to check the Happiness Box lately, join us on this episode! ~ Delilah

CATHY PARKER Oct 08, 2019

Cathy Parker was a bank employee, a wife, and a mother of 4 student athletes. She didn't have a lot of money, or power, and had ZERO knowledge of artificial athletic turf... but when her children called to her to watch a documentary about a town in the northern reaches of Alaska, struggling to keep kids safe, engaged, and in school, she took action!

Cathy answered a whisper in her heart, which led to a whole lotta shouting on the sidelines! Her book, "Northern Lights" tells the story of how she was able to get an artificial athletic field, purchased, transported, and installed in a town with no roads in or out. And, how she changed countless lives in the process, but none so much as her own.

Northern Lights was my book club pick for August - check it out on my web site - and join us for this inspiring episode of LOVE SOMEONE with Delilah! ~ Delilah

KERRY TYMCHUK Sep 24, 2019

Today I welcome a guest into my studio who has spent his life in public service. Once upon a childhood, he was my neighbor, my classmate, and my friend. Today he is everyone's neighbor and friend. Kerry Tymchuk has worn many professional hats - first as a young public prosecutor, then on to several roles in Washington DC, and then back to Oregon where he is now the Director of the Oregon Historical Society.

He's the son of a small town merchant/mayor, and a teacher; their attendance at every community meeting and event were almost guaranteed. Kerry, and his brother Keith, grew up with that ideal of service and have now become the models their parents once were. Keith (who I may have had a little tiny crush on...) became a teacher and returned to our home town where he too has served as mayor, and together with his wife, Jennifer (also a teacher), and children, are enmeshed in the fabric of the community.

In between official roles, Kerry has co-written 8 books with individuals who have had big impacts on our world, became a 4 time Jeopardy! champion, and served on numerous boards and causes, his favorite being the Special Olympics. He is a husband to another mover and shaker, Becky, who is the president of their local school board, and a father to two young adults just now making their way in the world.

His message to us? Find your place to serve, you always get more than you give! And please remember, "civility and decency still matter." Thank you for joining us today, I hope you feel inspired! ~ Delilah

ELTON JOHN Sep 17, 2019

I fell in love with Elton John's music waaaaaay back in the day with hits like Honkey Cat, Island Girl, and Crocodile Rock... I've played his songs, been to his concerts, and even had the chance to interview him a time or two, but NEVER did I have a sense that I really knew the man behind the giant sequined sunglasses until I watched the biopic, Rocket Man!

On this episode of LOVE SOMEONE, Elton and I have an absolutely lovely conversation about the movie, and how closely it resembles his life, his music - old and new - his past addictions and current sobriety, the changes of perspective and motivations that children bring, and of course, his Farewell Concert Tour. What and incredible man!

Join us, (and listen for this gem, "The philosophy of getting sober is helping others." Amen!) ~ Delilah

DELILAH: Back to School with Beloved Educators Sep 10, 2019

It's back to school time around the country, so I thought there would be no better way to kick-off September than with an episode honoring educators!

I dialed up a couple of teachers that have had a huge impact on my life; Coach Jim Wells, who was an history teacher and an athletic coach for many many years in my home town of Reesdport, Oregon, and who, with his wife Mary Ann, also a retired teacher, continues to be a vital presence in our community. And Mike Allen, choral director of the high school three of my kids attended. He shares his passion for music with his students by creating some of the MOST AMAZING programs including an annual Madrigal Feaste and Broadway production that give students an opportunity to showcase their creative abilities as well as their musical talents.

Please join me on this episode of LOVE SOMEONE with Delilah, as we honor educators for all they do and all they are! ~ Delilah

KIM BOGUCKI Aug 27, 2019

Joining me today is a good friend, a career police officer, and the co-founder of an amazing organization called The IF Project; a collaboration of law enforcement, currently and previously incarcerated adults and community partners focused on intervention, prevention and reduction in the number of women incarceration and recidivism.

The project is centered around individuals sharing their personal stories about incarceration. As Kim says, we ALL have stories, the felon, the police, the person you're standing next to. Finding the common denominator in our stories and tapping into the human connection, will help us to figure out the "what IF?" and take the steps necessary to change a life.

Join us for a conversation that may challenge your perception of incarcerated women and hopefully inspire you to be someone that's the "IF" to another's story. ~ Delilah

GLORIA GAYNOR Aug 13, 2019

"I Will Survive" has been the empowered woman's anthem for over 40 years, since the disco tune was recorded by Gloria Gaynor in 1978. (The year yours truly graduated high school!) There have been many times in my life that I've drawn strength from it's lyrics and fun, funky disco vibe to get me through rough patches, so imagine my delight at being able to tell the voice behind the message how much her music means to me!

The inimitable Gloria Gaynor sat down with me recently to chat, and ooooooh boy, did we have a lot to talk about! Mainly, her fabulous new gospel album, "Testimony," just out! Full of fresh tracks, many featuring folks I'm privileged to call friends, like Bart Millard, Jason Crabb, Yolanda Adams, and Mike Farris... the music is somehow still familiar and eminently satisfying! Come on in and sit down with us, then put "Testimony" on your play list! ~ Delilah

I had the great privilege recently of meeting up with two rather amazing people while in New York City. Dr. Jordan Kassalow, and Rabbi Jennifer Krause teamed up to write a sensational book, Dare to Matter, Your Path to Making a Difference NOW. Jordan is the founder of Vision Spring, a "compassionate capitalism" venture that has restored sight, livelihoods, and hope to millions of people the world over. Jen is a beloved rabbi, whose words of wisdom and guidance Jordan tapped into to tell his story. It's a good one. If you've ever wondered how your unique gifts and talents could make a difference in the world, read Dare to Matter, you'll wonder no more!

HATTIE MITCHELL Jul 09, 2019

I'm excited to introduce you to a brilliant educator, Hattie Mitchell, founder of Crete Academy in the Hyde Park neighborhood of LA. Hattie has always had a heart for the homeless, and as a young adult set her mind to changing the trajectory of homeless children. Unlike me (who has a "by the seat of my pants" methodology) Hattie carefully laid her plans and set them to action. First she obtained her teaching degree, then participated in several programs gaining skill and insight that several years later would lead her to opening the doors of Crete Academy. Join us on this episode of LOVE SOMEONE and hear how Hattie is changing the world ONE (little) HEART AT A TIME, and be sure to visit https://www.creteacademy.org/ if you've been inspired to help OR if you believe your community could use a program like Crete Academy.

DAUGHTRY Jun 26, 2019

Frontman for the band bearing his name, DAUGHTRY sang his way to prominence on the fifth season of American Idol. Since then he's released four albums, all of which reached the Billboard Top Ten and have combined sales of over 8 million copies in the U.S. You probably know him for one of his smash singles, "It's Not Over", "Leave This Town", "Break The Spell", or maybe "Waiting For Superman."

Recently I got to know him for so much more! Chris came to hang out for a day at the farm so he could get the lay of the land before he performs at my annual Farm to Feast garden gala benefitting Point Hope. We had such an amazing time together laughing, talking, and checking in on Zena the zebra, Emmy the Emu, and Peek-A-Boo's new pups.

His single, "As You Are," from the 2018 album, "Cage To Rattle", was written with his wife Deanna; An incredible testimony to unconditional love, it wrecks me, He even put on an impromptu performance for me in the studio, and I'm still a-swoon. I'm so glad you're joining us today on LOVE SOMEONE to share in the Daughtry experience! ~ Delilah

GARY SINISE Jun 11, 2019

I've admired the acting skills of today's guest for years and I've been equally impressed (and entertained) with his musical abilities! But it is his devotion to our Veteran's, our First Responders, and their families that propelled my esteem for him into the upper stratosphere.

Gary Sinise is a man of talent, honor, and action. Join us as we talk about his new book, Grateful American, A Journey from Self to Service, and the work of The Gary Sinise Foundation, AND to hear of my own very personal (and profound) experiences with what Gary refers to as our "Freedom Providers."

The audio quality of our interview isn't the best, but the man and his message are FANTASTIC on this episode of LOVE SOMEONE. ~ Delilah

ANGELA TUCKER May 14, 2019

One late evening, while indulging in my favorite insomniac habit of watching documentaries, I stumbled upon Angela Tucker's CLOSURE. This film, created by Angela's husband on a flip-phone, was only meant for her at the time of it's making.

It's the step-by-step journey she went on to find her birth parents and something of herself she felt was missing. Angela, a bright, beautiful black woman was raised by strong, loving white parents in a predominantly white community. They gave her a loving foundation, a family, and a future, but her features did not match theirs - those of us who have no experience with this may not understand how difficult that can be for a child to process.

Angela found her birth family and discovered many things about herself along the way. She also found her life's work created from a passion to help and support others on similar quests; sharing CLOSURE is one way of doing so. Angela is among those warriors helping to make the world a better place, One Heart at a Time! Join us in the studio as she shares her story. ~ Delilah

Happy Mother's Day! To all of you who have been a mother; a birth mother, a step mother, an adoptive mother, a grandmother, a mothering aunt, a single dad that must carry both loads... I want to honor and thank you for a sometimes thankless job.

Mother's are our unsung heroes, the givers of life, the ones who teach, who love, who sacrifice. Those who forgive the sometimes unforgivable, the supporters, the nurturers... The ones who care, always.

I'm sharing some great calls from my archives that celebrate mother's and motherhood, and sharing my thought with you on the topic. Thank you for joining me on the special May episode of LOVE SOMEONE ~ Delilah

CHRISSY METZ & DEVON FRANKLIN Apr 09, 2019

What a privilege it is to be able to chat with an actress I have admired for so long! I don't watch a lot of TV, but I'm hooked on "This Is Us" and adore the character of Kate Pearson! When I heard Chrissy Metz is starring in a new movie, "Breakthrough" out on April 17, I was really eager to talk to her about it!

We were joined by producer, DeVon Franklin, who coincidentally produced an animated Christmas movie I had a few lines in, "The Star." It was fantastic to get to connect with them both!

Join me on this episode of LOVE SOMEONE with Delilah, where I barely contain my excitement over being able to talk with these two! "Breakthrough" based on an amazing true story, is a moving testimony to the power of prayer and love of family and community! ~ Delilah

That's what Barbara Marlowe did when she saw a newspaper photograph of a little girl who desperately needed help. Their story is in the book "A Brave Face" which I encourage you to pick up and read.

Barbara and Teeba shared their story with me also, and I can not wait for you all to hear what they had to say. It's touching, awe inspiring, and so full of heart and soul, it will make you weep with joy. ~ Delilah

Josh and I share the belief that children should be championed! He's doing all he can through his Find Your Light Foundation - supporting children involved int the arts. http://www.joshgroban.com/foundation/mission.

PAT MONAHAN - TRAIN Feb 26, 2019

I recently got to cozy up to the charming and charismatic Pat Monahan, front-man for the iconic rock-band, TRAIN. We had such a good visit!

Train is going on tour with the Goo Goo Dolls in the summer, they have a new album out, "Greatest Hits." and Pat's life is BUSY! But not too busy to share some time with us and never, ever, too busy to give credit to his wife, and love to his family.

When you give this episode of LOVE SOMEONE with Delilah a listen, you'll soon discover, like I did, how much family means to Pat and how it influences his every waking - and sleeping - moment. Enjoy! ~ Delilah

Wow. Just wow. What a phenomenal human is Tim Tebow! He stepped onto a football field and stole our hearts several years ago, and continues to hold them in his strong, capable hands! Football star, baseball star, founder of the Night To Shine Foundation, and now teaming up with his brother Robby as executive producers of the movie, "Run The Race."

I ran into Tim while we were both in New York, he promoting "Run The Race", and me talking about my book, One Heart At A Time. He graciously sat down with me behind some pipe and drape to have a genuine heart to heart chat about what love really is. My favorite quote from the conversation, "The greatest form of love is to chose the best interest of another person and act on their behalf." Amen

I'm so glad I get to share my chat and Tim's warrior heart with you! "Run the Race" is in theaters February 22nd! ~ Delilah

MAX LUCADO Oct 28, 2017

Finding calm in a chaotic world is not easy. Anxiety and depression is something we all know about, but not something that is often truthfully discussed. We all suffer from it in varying degrees but lately it seems exponential. I think it's time we all start being more honest. We can't help each other if we don't talk and open up. Please listen to this podcast, the amazing, smart and loving Max Lucado has some real words of wisdom.

PAT MONAHAN: "Train - All Aboard" Mar 18, 2017

Keeping the theme of positivity and love going in this conversation with Pat Monahan, lead singer from the Grammy award winning band Train.

Many of Train's songs are among my most requested ever. "Hey Soul Sister", "Marry Me," and "Calling All Angels" are just a few of those titles. Pat is not only an amazing singer and songwriter but is so refreshingly humble.

Together, we share thoughts on life, music and Train's upcoming tour. We even manage to squeeze in a wee bit of silliness for good measure. ~ Delilah

The Foundation Of Love Feb 08, 2017

All month long we have been challenging everyone to choose love over all of the negativity that seems to be dominating our daily lives. It's especially crazy over social media and media in general. What is particularly concerning is that it's actually infiltrated real relationships. It's so puzzling as to why that kind of energy spreads like a horrible flu. Wouldn't it be great to have a vaccine for that? We can't offer a cure but we can offer a home remedy (a kind of calming cup of tea). Her name is Delilah and she has challenged you to focus on who and what you love today. This week's podcast focuses on the foundation of that. Tune in now to find out what it is.

Dealing with death or the terminal illness of a loved one can often send us into a downward spiral of devastating grief.

There is only a way through it. If you are facing this most difficult of life's circumstances, you are not alone. You are on holy ground.
