In addition, Bridges will revisit a key interview from its first season with Dove Award winner Lynda Randle. The Gospel songstress shares some of her experiences facing racism and why being committed to unity is so crucial in the February 14 episode. “Patsy and I began co-hosting Bridges in 2020, a humdinger of a year marked not only by the introduction of a global pandemic, but our nation’s struggle to balance racial relations and political unrest,” Greer explains. “The ability to pause, sit around a table, and ask questions of guests from all ages, backgrounds and perspectives has given Patsy and me a new foundation for seeking understanding in the hardest of dialogues, as well as a fresh lens through which to experience our faith. Hopefully this is what our listeners receive from these inspiring and enlightening conversations as well.” “I have loved embracing these ‘bridges’ confirming the importance of connections that bring us together,” Clairmont adds. “Andrew and I set a high priority on learning and growing so I’m thrilled we will be showcasing even more guests of all ages and all walks of life who will unite us with their stories, music and faith.” Landing in the Top 15 on Apple’s Religion & Spirituality podcast chart following its debut in 2020, Bridges with Patsy Clairmont and Andrew Greer…Spiritual Connections Through Generational Conversations welcomed such guests as speaker and social media influencer Carlos Whittaker; bestselling author Rebekah Lyons; Cy Young Award-winning MLB pitcher Barry Zito; former star of “The Bachelor” Ben Higgins; and YouTube sibling superstars Cimorelli, among other personalities in its first season.
