16 - Sarah McLachlan

How she sold 40 million albums, created Lilith Fair & opened a door for Taylor Swift. Featuring Sarah singing live in Robert's living room. Former KPRi Program Director Haley Jones brings the data. And our first interview with Sarah conducted by morning show host Mike Dale.

His music strikes a mellow chord. Four # 1 selling albums, sold-out tours, and even a performance for the Dalai Lama. He’s an award-winning film maker who told me how his cinema experience helped him write lyrics for one of his most loved songs. @jackjohnson

Comedian Steve Martin and singer-songwriter Edie Brickell join Robert to discuss Bright Star, the musical they co-wrote. Then we hear Edie with guitar maestro Charlie Sexton in a three-song live set and interview from the studios of San Diego’s 102.1 KPRi.  (ROBERT: "...a musical jewel!") @stevemartinreally, @ebnewbohemians

Robert John Hughes revisits his radio documentary on the massive Vietnam War protests in DC in May 1971. How those much larger events compare to the January 6th Capitol riot 50 years later.

How John Hiatt wrote a song about Elvis ("The King") that became the title track of an Eric Clapton album featuring "the King of the Blues" BB King. It only took 17 years. Episode features interview and live performance by Hiatt and slide guitar whiz Sonny Landreth, as well as a Robert's backstage visit with BB King.

You may not know his name, but chances are good he took the cover photo of more than one of your favorite rock albums.

We preview the first episode in our brand new Season 2. Plus, audience insights and highlights from the most loved episodes in Season 1.

This is is one of my favorite interviews of all time and it's because of the easy going humanity of my special guest - the founder and lead singer of the Police. We met October 24, 1999 in San Diego. And he taught me a lesson in leadership.

When you break out an acoustic guitar and put it in the hands of a master, something magical happens. And so it was in August of 1999 when Bruce Cockburn visited KXST for a live interview and performance on our morning show.

Hear what happens when an original Eagle and a founder of the Byrds visit Robert's studio for a live performance and interview. They talk about squirrels, nuts, and Gram Parsons.
