Orphans of God Hosts: Todd A. Zeller & Spun Counterguy

In Part 2 of our deep dive into the legacy of LoveSong, Todd and Spun along with Ron & Jerry, explore the period when the band began winding down their collaborative work and moving into solo careers or other callings. We reflect on how each member continued to influence the world musically, spiritually, and culturally beyond the band’s heyday. The episode also examines LoveSong’s enduring impact on Contemporary Christian Music (CCM), tracing threads from their pioneering sound to today's worship and Christian pop genres.

There is conversation commemorating the legendary Jesus Music Festival, Explo 72. Along the way, we uncover a priceless piece of history: long-lost 16mm archival footage capturing the band in their prime and a rare visual window into the heart of the Jesus Music era. We wrap with a heartfelt look at the broader Jesus Music Movement, how it shaped a generation and how its echoes can still be felt in Christian culture today.
