You know Lizzy Greene from her Nickelodeon days (Nicky, Ricky, Dicky & Dawn), or more recently from A Million Little Things. Now, she’s stepping into a pair of dusty boots for Netflix’s Ransom Canyon, a Western drama where she plays Lauren Brigman, the small-town Texas sheriff’s daughter with big dreams of escape.

The role is something of a full-circle moment for the Dallas native, who brought her own background in horseback riding and cheerleading to the role (with a detour to the ER after a Looney Tunes-style knee fracture during rehearsals). Greene opens up to Kyle Meredith about how growing up in Texas helped her find her way into Lauren’s world — even if it meant freezing in the Albuquerque snow and bonding with castmates over cow manure during “cowboy camp.”

Greene also discusses her emo-punk side (she’s a huge fan of The Cure and The Smiths), her reunion with co-star Garrett Wareing in the upcoming Sweating the Small Stuff, and why Jose Gonzalez’s "Teardrop" cover in the show nearly made her lose it.

On this pair of archive interviews from Kyle Meredith With…, dive into the world of one of the most successful duos in music history: Daryl Hall and John Oates.

One’s a blue-eyed soul pioneer with a voice built to cut through FM static. The other’s a mustachioed master of melodic restraint. Together, they blurred the lines between rock, R&B, and pop — then turned that blur into decades-long chart domination. We look back at a two interviews, one with Oates in 2018 regarding a solo album and the final Hall & Oates single, and another with Hall from 2022 in which he discusses teaming up with Robert Fripp, Todd Rundgren, and Eurythmics' Dave Stewart.

Justin Vernon joins Kyle Meredith With… to dive into SABLE, fABLE, Bon Iver’s latest and most rootsy record in years. But don’t call it a pivot — Vernon says it’s more about clarity than change. “Less mystery, more humanity,” he explains, crediting the song “Everything Is Peaceful Love” as the emotional and sonic compass for an album that tracks a "Man in black in a cabin, making the choice to change his life.” Listen now.

Vernon discusses the cinematic quality and "visual story" of the songs, the subconscious as his favorite collaborator, and how the album helped stitch him back together after a tough chapter. We also hear about the influence of Rickie Lee Jones (“The Horses” is his second favorite song of all time), why the band hasn’t played “Exile” without Taylor Swift (“It’s her song”), and what it was like getting snowed in with Danielle Haim ("She's one of my favorite people ever") during recording.

We also dig back into Bon Iver lore to reflect on that cover of The Outfield's "Your Love." Vernon still considers it some of Bon Iver’s best cover work: “It was a big moment for us,” he says.

On this Rewind episode of Kyle Meredith with..., hear from Sarah McLachlan and Tracey Thorn: two voices that not only helped define the emotional landscape of the ’90s, but did so on their own terms.

McLachlan, with her soaring melodies and introspective songwriting, built a legacy of haunting beauty, activism, and defiance. Thorn, as half of Everything But the Girl and a solo artist in her own right, turned quiet vulnerability into pop brilliance with a voice that could break your heart with one line. Different sounds, same fearless spirit. Kyle Meredith talks with both artists about their music, impact, and what keeps them at the center of the conversation decades later.

Jeff Bridges joins Kyle Meredith to talk about Slow Magic: 1977–1978, a long-lost batch of recordings from his late '70s jam sessions that’s finally getting its debut on Record Store Day via Light in the Attic. Listen now.

Bridges also reflects on working with legends like Burgess Meredith — who contributes a spoken word piece to the album — and how songwriting often intersects with his acting career. He recalls writing music inspired by Crazy Heart, fantasizing about a King Kong sequel, and even jamming with Bob Dylan on the set of Masked and Anonymous. “He knocked on my trailer and said, ‘You wanna pick?’” Bridges grins. “My hands were shaking.”

Looking ahead, the Oscar winner teases new projects with Terry Gilliam and the upcoming Tron: Ares, while leaving the door open for future music. “I don’t know what’s next,” he says, guitar next to him. “I just pick it up, see what happens.”

Finn Cole catches up with Kyle Meredith to talk about Last Breath, the true-life deep-sea survival thriller that finds him playing a saturation diver stranded at the bottom of the North Sea. The Peaky Blinders alum gets into the intense training he and Simu Liu underwent to shoot underwater with real gear, how they learned to stay calm in a literal pressure cooker, and how scuba diving actually overlaps with acting when it comes to breathing, focus, and presence. Listen now.

Cole also reflects on his Peaky Blinders character arc, saying it was tough to watch Michael Gray shift from fan favorite to divisive villain — but ultimately, a gift as an actor. He adds that working alongside talents like Cillian Murphy and Helen McCrory taught him how to be the kind of scene partner who can be relied on completely.

Elsewhere, he gets into his blues guitar obsession, his dream of playing John Martyn in a biopic, and that moment on set when the dive crew blasted Underworld’s “Born Slippy” through underwater speakers and turned on the disco lights at 4AM. “There’s a video of me doing full dad dancing,” he laughs.

Michael McDonald joins Kyle Meredith With… to talk about Walk This Road, the first Doobie Brothers album to feature him as a full member since 1980. What started as a 50th anniversary tour quietly evolved into something more permanent, with McDonald, Tom Johnston, and Pat Simmons writing and singing together again for the first time in decades. He shares stories about rediscovered demos, recording new songs in real time, and finally living out his dream of playing accordion on a New Orleans-inspired track. Listen now.

The album is full of surprises — gospel grooves, blues shuffles, and even social commentary — but it’s also a reminder of The Doobies’ musical range and chemistry. McDonald says playing with the band pushes him in ways his solo work never has, like taking on new instruments or singing alongside voices as distinct as Johnston’s and Simmons’s.

He also weighs in on the HBO Yacht Rock documentary, how Mavis Staples stole the show on their title track, and how touring in your seventies can still make you feel 20 when you hit the stage.

On this Rewind episode of Kyle Meredith with..., listen to throwback interviews with Talib Kweli and Peaches -- two artists who couldn’t be more different on paper, yet both built careers on defying expectations.

Kweli, one of hip-hop’s sharpest lyricists, has spent decades balancing conscious rap with undeniable flow, both in Black Star and with his great solo catalog. Meanwhile, Peaches took electroclash, punk attitude, and pure sexual liberation and turned it into a movement, proving that provocation and poetry can be closely related.

Both are innovators, disruptors, and fiercely independent voices. Kyle Meredith takes us back to his interviews with the pair of legendary artists in this special Rewind episode.
