Director Steve and myself, your host, Joseph Hudak, Deputy Editor at Rolling Stone. Joining us is Sheryl Crow, Rock & Roll Hall of Fame member. She has a new album out called Pick You Up.

It is just one of my favorite interviews we've ever done. Steve, what did you think?

Steve John (1:17)

It was heartfelt.

Joseph Hudak (1:19)

Heartfelt.

Steve John (1:19)

It was emotional. It was joyful.

Joseph Hudak (1:22)

Hopeful.

Steve John (1:23)

Hopeful.

Sheryl Crow (1:24)

Yeah. Yeah.

Steve John (1:24)

Good word. Also, Sheryl Crow walked through our door.

Joseph Hudak (1:29)

Sheryl Crow.

Steve John (1:30)

There's still, I can't believe it.

Sheryl Crow (1:32)

Yeah, I know.

Steve John (1:32)

She was so kind and so sweet.

Joseph Hudak (1:34)

So kind. It was like, I said afterwards to you, it was like having either a colleague I've worked with forever sitting across from us, or like some relative, you know? It was wonderful. She was just, there was zero ego. Anything was fair game, didn't worry about anything, and just could not have given us more time. I was really happy to have her.

Steve John (1:56)

I opened the door because you could hear them creeping. People come through our woods here, and I opened it and I said, hey, she said it's the right place. She just said, Steve, if you were to ever tell us, Joe, in our teenage tree. That's right. Sheryl would recognize you. She's like, I love the podcast. I love you guys. It was, gosh.

Sheryl Crow (2:15)

I love her. I'm going to die on that one, man.

Joseph Hudak (2:17)

Sheryl Crow said she watches and listens every week, so that was terrific. All right. So we have a great interview with her about her record, Pick You Up, and a whole bunch of things. Way till the end, it's really an emotional moment. Sheryl Crow, thank you for going there with us. Thank you for joining us. Up next, Sheryl Crow.

Joseph Hudak (3:30)

Man, it's been a really busy couple of weeks for you.

Sheryl Crow (3:34)

It has been.

Joseph Hudak (3:35)

I saw you here in Nashville at the BMI Troubadour Award dinner.

Sheryl Crow (3:38)

I heard you were there. It makes me mad how many people I'm finding out were there that I didn't see. That is- Robert Earl King. I can't believe, I mean, I would love to have met him. Jeffrey Steele, big fan of his work. Marin was there. I never got to see her. Oh, no. Yes.

But what a crazy night. You were awarded the Troubadour Award.

Joseph Hudak (3:59)

It is like we do a lot of industry events in this town, right? At the drop of a hat, drop of a cowboy hat. But that is my absolute favorite industry event.
