Podcast: Sept. 13, 2026: 9/11 & 2001 Special

Episode #1150

It’s been 25 years since the tragic events of 9/11. Much has been said about the profound losses and changes to all of our lives after that day. It also happened to be a music new release day, and a bunch of great albums were released that day and quickly overshadowed by what was going on in the world. Today we listen back to some of that great music and then widen the focus to listen to musical memories from a year of great joys and sorrows.
