Hey fellow lushes! This week we’re joined by musician, songwriter, and now stand-up comedian Stephen Kellogg. Fresh off the release of his new comedy special Maybe This Will Work and his latest album To You, Old Friend, Stephen sits down with us to talk about his journey from 3,000 concerts to comedy clubs, and why he’s more inspired than ever to keep creating.

We dig into his time at Mile of Music, his friendship with Adam Duritz and the Counting Crows, and the unforgettable moment of sharing the stage with his daughters in front of thousands of fans. Stephen also opens up about the challenges of balancing art with family life, adapting to a changing music industry, and finding new ways to connect with audiences.

It’s a heartfelt, funny, and inspiring conversation with an artist who’s still chasing big dreams — and reminding us all why you never give up.
