  • Lowen

    It's Pride Month! There's also a lot going on right now with BLM and racism in America and I wanted to comment just a little bit on my journey toward activism. Feminism was my gateway drug to more activism.

    I then got to sit down with the singer/songwriter, Lowen on The Melissa Etheridge Cruise! She has a very unique and amazing voice and I loved what she had to say about activism.

  • The Evangenitals & Working at a Sex Shop

    I sat down with the very talented ladies from the Avant-Americana 9-piece band, The Evangenitals; Juli Crockett and Lisa Dee on The Melissa Etheridge Cruise. We talk politics, feminine energy vs. male energy, sex toy stores, and how the pendulum always swings back around.

  • Lucy Spraggan & The X-Factor

    Have you watched Mrs. America yet during the pandemic? Why am I struggling to press 'play?' Does clapping at 7pm bring you cheer too? #DisasterFeminist #Pandemic #MrsAmerica

    As we swayed back and forth on The Melissa Etheridge Cruise in a little room looking out at the Caribbean somewhere between Belize and The Cayman Islands, I got to talk to the wonderful musician, Lucy Spraggan. Her X-Factor audition in 2012 (when she sung her own song, "Last Night" ) shot her to fame and she's been touring ever since! Follow her @Lspraggan

  • Dar Williams & Finding Your Voice

    On the top, back deck of the Melissa Etheridge Cruise while cruisers brunched their hearts out, I sat down with Dar Williams to talk about her beginning days in Northampton, MA; feminism, capitalism ("The Nose"), and how the music industry has changed since the 1990s. Dar is a singer-songwriter specializing in pop folk. You might know her songs, "When I Was a Boy" or "The Babysitters Here."

  • Paula Cole & Being a Starving Artist

    The Melissa Etheridge Cruise was my first cruise ever; and since Coronavirus hit, I"m never going on one again. On this episode, we meet my first CRUISE FRIENDS Maureen and Leanne and to top it off; I interview PAULA COLE! You know her famous songs, "Where Have All The Cowboys Gone?" and "I Don't Want to Wait," but did you know she self-produced that entire album and won Best New Artist in 1998? Also, I grew my armpit hair out just for her.

  • Jill Sobule & I Kissed a Girl

    As we hang out on The Melissa Etheridge Cruise, I talk to the singer/songwriter/activist/awesome chick, Jill Sobule. You may know her song, "I Kissed A Girl," or "Supermodel" from the Clueless Soundtrack.  We talk Fabio, getting a record deal, her new album,  "Nostalgia Kills," and how maybe I'm too drunk to do the interview. Enjoy!
