In this episode, Jann Arden celebrates the release of her 16th studio album, 'Mixtape,' reflecting on her long career in the music industry and the nostalgia surrounding mixtapes and cassettes. The conversation shifts to the creative process behind the album, including the choice of songs and the emotional connections they evoke. They also discuss the Academy Awards nominees, highlighting Canadian representation and the significance of nominations in the film industry. They also enjoy a moment of unexpected magic for Jim Murphy's book to be front and center in the NFL.
