On this Rewind episode of Kyle Meredith With..., revisit a conversation with foundational Foo Fighters members Taylor Hawkins and Chris Shiflett.Foo Fighters are a band that rose from the ashes of grunge to become rock’s most reliable hit-makers and festival headliners. But beyond Dave Grohl’s frontman glow, it’s guys like Shiflett and the late, great Hawkins who gave the band its heartbeat and bite. Shiflett’s slick guitar work brought a sharp edge to their sound, while Hawkins’ explosive drumming and larger-than-life personality made him the band’s not-so-secret weapon. Together, they helped shape the Foo Fighters into more than just Grohl’s post-Nirvana project — they became a rock institution.Listen to Foo Fighters chat about all this and more.

Kyle Meredith sat down with Natti Natasha to dive into her latest album, Natti Natasha en Amargue, which marks a return to her roots and a deep embrace of Bachata. Listen now.Produced and written by none other than Romeo Santos, the king of Bachata himself, the album is a passionate exploration of love, heartbreak, and cultural pride. “This is definitely a moment of just being very close to the fans, embracing the Dominican Republic, embracing Latinos,” Natasha shared.Collaborating with Santos was a dream come true. “I used to listen to Romeo while growing up in the Dominican Republic,” she recalled. “To now sit in the studio with him, watching him create — it’s surreal.” But despite the big names and genre shifts throughout her career, Natasha insists on one constant: “No matter the style — whether it’s Bachata, R&B, or reggaeton — you’ll always get Natti Natasha. That’s my stamp.”Listen to Natti Natasha chat about all this and more or watch it on YouTube. Please take the time to like, review, and subscribe to KMW wherever you get your podcasts, and keep up to date with all our series by following the Consequence Podcast Network.Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

On this Rewind episode of Kyle Meredith With..., Creedence Clearwater Revival's John Fogerty, Doug Clifford, and Stu Cook muse over the iconic band's legacy.

Kyle Meredith caught up with Sam Jaeger to talk about his standout year, balancing roles in Blumhouse’s Wolf Man and the final season of The Handmaid’s Tale. Listen now.Known for his versatility across comedy (Parenthood, Take Me Home) and intense drama (The Handmaid’s Tale), Jaeger said he’s always focused on finding the humanity in his roles. In Wolf Man, he plays a man grappling with isolation and transformation, themes he noted were inspired by the pandemic. “It’s really a story about a family trying to stay connected,” Jaeger explained. “[Screenwriter and director] Leigh Whannell wrote this during quarantine, and you can feel the weight of that experience."Jaeger also touched on wrapping The Handmaid’s Tale, which he praised for tackling heavy, relevant themes. While fans may crave resolution, Jaeger assured viewers the finale will stay true to Margaret Atwood’s cautionary tale, resisting the temptation of a neatly tied-up ending. “This isn’t a ‘happily ever after’ kind of story,” he emphasized.Listen to Sam Jaeger chat about all this and more or watch it on YouTube. Please take the time to like, review, and subscribe to KMW wherever you get your podcasts, and keep up to date with all our series by following the Consequence Podcast Network.Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy
