The emotional track, inspired by deeply personal experiences, reflects on themes of love, grief, and ultimately hope. Prior to the interview, Mark shares comments from recent episodes, a personal update, and a word from this episode's sponsor. This episode is sponsored by the 2024 Novel Writing Storybundle - Only available until the end of November 2024. In the interview, Mark, Cathy, and Ken talk about: Cathy's various family members who are musicians, her first exposure to music when she was young and how that impacted her creative lifeGetting into theatre, and acting, when she was little, but not having the confidence in music itselfThe first time Cathy had to perform a singing scene when she was acting in a filmThe difference between being a performing musician and being a live hostKen's background as a musician having toured with various different artists over the yearsHow being the lead singer might be one of the more difficult positions to be in, since the majority of the audience focus is on them (rather than, for example, the drummer)The concept of the instrument choosing the musician rather than it being the other way around - and how that's the way it was for Ken and playing the drumsHow playing drums was never "work" for Ken no matter what type of band he was inThe great producers that Ken has worked alongside over the yearsThe way that Cathy and Ken first met and started to work together (When Jon Ronson asked Cathy to interview Ken about his most recent album)Cathy showing some of her poems to Ken and getting some feedback on the option to produce one of them into a songHow everything in this production unfolded organically and the chemistry of Cathy and the musicians in producing the songThe delightful lyrical and musical Easter Eggs that appear in the songThe connection between Neil Peart's loss of his daughter and the loss of Cathy's nephew Christian and why the song is a tribute to both their memoriesWhat people who want to support the musical artists can do to help out After the interview Mark reflects on three different things that came up in the conversation, including the magic of organic creativity, the concept of playing a character when on stage, and the value of art, music, poetry, and prose in expressing deep emotion and forging connections.

Whether on stage, on camera, or in any crowd, Rankin brings a strong female voice to her music on every level. Never one to take a backseat, this force-to-be-reckoned-with doesn’t just move fans with her powerful vocals, but also proudly reps the girls while holding her own with the guys. And, in Cathy's case, it's not just any ordinary "guys" that are part of her project, its renowned rockers David Ellefson, bassist (Kings of Thrash, Dieth, formerly of Megadeth), Ken Mary, Drummer/Composer/Producer (Flotsam and Jetsam, Great White, Fifth Angel, formerly of Alice Cooper and House of Lords), and guitarist John Bronson.
