Clare and Hannah each share another song that rocked their worlds. Clare's song is a universal story about the plight of the working poor, just as relevant today as it was forty years ago. Hannah spends most of her allotted time describing what happens if you trespass at a war vet's house and pester his wife (You get shot, that's what). Also, her song made both of us cry a little.

Hannah’s song: “I Can’t Help But Wonder” by Jorge Rivera-Herrans

Clare’s song: “Fast Car” written and performed by Tracy Chapman. And here is a live performance of the song: Luke Combs’s cover.

Theme music: “Splanchnics Riff” composed and performed by Clare T. Walker
