Host Kelly Krause sits down with Austin City Limits executive producer Terry Lickona, who has been at the helm of the iconic series since 1978, for a conversation about the enduring power of great music—and the rare magic of building something that never loses its soul. For nearly five decades, Terry has helped shape the longest-running music series in television history, introducing audiences to legendary artists and tomorrow's stars alike. He reflects on the show's remarkable history, why its format has remained intentionally timeless, how ACL has touched generations of music fans, and what makes an ACL Live taping one of the most coveted milestones in an artist's career. They also explore the art of spotting talent before the rest of the world catches up and why human curation still matters in an algorithm-driven age. This is Told Y'all — where founders, creatives, and culture-shapers say the quiet part out loud. Socials: @acllive @kelly.krause @toldyallpod Music by Harvest Thieves.

Host Kelly Krause sits down with legendary barbecue duo Aaron Franklin and Stacy Franklin for a conversation that goes far beyond brisket. From hosting backyard barbecues to building Franklin Barbecue into a global destination, Aaron shares the craft behind the barbecue while Stacy shares the strategy behind the business. Together, they talk about leading as a couple, why they've never chased hundreds of locations, the fiercely loyal community they've built, and what it takes to protect something once it becomes bigger than you ever imagined.

Host Kelly Krause sits down with Dr. Shannon Ritchey, founder of Evlo Fitness, for a conversation about the fitness lies we've been sold and what actually works. From the myth that more workouts equal more results to the belief that we can earn or burn our meals through exercise, Shannon breaks down the science behind strength training, muscle building, recovery, and sustainable fitness. She shares why "gentle consistency" has become her guiding philosophy and how she's helping women rethink everything they've been taught about exercise. Whether you're a lifelong fitness enthusiast or someone who's tired of starting over every Monday, this conversation will challenge the way you think about movement, health, and what it really means to get stronger.

Host Kelly Krause sits down with Jamie-Lynn Sigler for a conversation that goes far beyond nostalgia. From The Sopranos to her memoir "And So It Is," Jamie reflects on growing up in public, navigating life with multiple sclerosis, and why she refuses to let one part of her story define her. They talk podcasting, motherhood, creative evolution, her role on Grey's Anatomy, and what she’s learned from years of having honest conversations — whether with Robert Iler, Christina Applegate, or herself.
