Inspired by creator and host Carmel Holt’s own 25 year career in radio, and lifetime devoted to music, SHEROES is a podcast that amplifies womxn’s voices in song and conversation. As the third production under the SHEROES name, following her syndicated public radio show SHEROES Radio, and SHEROES: Mixtape Memoir (Sonos Radio), the SHEROES podcast on Talkhouse acts as kind of creative lab, expanding to include mini-episodes that highlight the intersectional feminist heart of SHERO interviews, live tapings, roundtables and more. Carmel’s approach continues to be guided by a fierce commitment to diversity and inclusivity, showcasing a wide range of guests sharing their experiences spanning genres and generations, with a passion for amplifying new voices while recognizing and celebrating the womxn who paved the way.
Grammy-nominated singer, songwriter, poet, and painter Courtney Marie Andrews returns to SHEROES this week to talk with Carmel Holt about her brand new, tenth studio album, Valentine. We learn that this album is a piece of a greater whole that includes Courtney’s latest book of poetry, Love Is A Dog That Bites When It’s Scared, and she reads one of those poems during this in-depth conversation.
