For Emerson Day, storytelling came naturally from a young age. She was influenced by the sounds of a southern rock guitar and an old church piano. Growing up on her family's farm in Maryland, she would sit outside playing guitar and singing for hours.
Emerson graduated from university as a decorated Lacrosse player with her degree in Homeland Security. The same competitive nature which drew her to sports and a career in federal law enforcement, quickly engaged when she felt God calling her to pursue music. It wasn't until she started leading worship at a small church in North Carolina that God showed her the path he truly had for her.
Emerson signed her first record deal in 2022 with Fair Trade Services. Her debut to Christian music is on Micah Tyler’s song, “People Like Us” in January 2024.
Here's an exclusive performance from Emerson Day.

STRYPER launched in Orange County, California in 1983. Michael Sweet, (and his brother Robert), met Jesus thru the TV when a Televangelist led them to the Lord. But after a faulty start with ROXX REGIME, they changed their name, adopted the yellow and black colors for stage clothes and production, and the rest is head banging history. Somewhere around 10 million albums sold worldwide, STRYPER still makes the trek across America with classic songs and newer heading banger favorites too. We play a round of ‘Show and Share’, how does the band continue longevity, other musical partnerships with surprising names, and a possible ‘inspirational’ album on its way before 2024.

We talk upbringing, origins, inspirations, how much he actually doesn’t know about actual music writing, or string changing, and what it is about this Jesus that fuels Matt’s pencil and paper.

Ken Mansfield – January 30th, 2019 is the 50th anniversary of the last time the Beatles would ever play together in a ‘live’ setting. It was on a rooftop of their record label, 40+ minutes, and audio that would eventually be used for the album, “Let It Be”. There were only a few ‘employees’ on the roof that day, and if you google photos, you’ll see a man with a white coat. Ken Mansfield worked for Apple Records and was there that day.

In September of 2014, I was at a conference that Plumb performed at. She knocked me over, I already knew she could sing, but her story is what struck me as powerful. Fast forward to a radio tour in May of 2015, and I had the privilege of interviewing her on our morning show. The other female voice you will hear is my co-host, Melanie. So into the archives we go Tiffany Lee, a.k.a. Plumb.

Kevin Matthews is the reason why I’m doing what I’m (still) doing in radio broadcasting. His time at WLUP in Chicago is legendary to “Kev-Heads” around the Midwest and beyond. It wasn’t just Kevin either - it was also sports announcer “Jim Shorts”, Darnell, Devon, Ronald Reagan, Elvis, Pee Wee Herman, and a cast of others, all flowing out of the mouth and brain of Kevin. Kevin has written a book called “Broken Mary” that has given him a much different perspective on life. Pardon me while I geek out talking to my hero, Kevin Matthews.

There are people who are naturally funny, and there are people that need to work at it. The cartoonish southern style of speaking leads me to believe that Chonda is naturally funny. Almost like a cartoon voiceover actor, Chonda is the ‘Queen of Clean” comedian, with 10 comedy albums, multiple books, tv specials, and quite a story. From her start as a Minnie Pearl impersonator at Opryland, to audiences of thousands listening to funny stories about being born in a cab, her mom’s wig, misplacing her husband’s body,….(really.)
