Father's Day with Tanner and Finley

Hello and happy to all the dads out there! On today's special episode of The Happy Meemaw, I'm joined by my grandson Tanner and my granddaughter Finley, and I'm trying to get some dirt on their dad (my son). Spoiler alert - they don't give much away! I asked them some questions, and they had fun answering and telling me about what a great dad they have. I hope you all enjoy this - I wish all the dads out there a wonderful day. It's your day. Do what you like to do - we'll even laugh at your jokes today. Thanks for listening!

Phil Gemmell is With the Band

It's Meemaw Music Monday, and today I'm chatting with a creative who has taken his love of music turned it into a fantastic day job. In addition to teaching students of all ages, he plays with several bands, and even subs in when a band is without a member. I was pretty fascinated at being this musically nimble, and also loved the influence his parents and their musical loves and influences had on him. Hope you enjoy our conversation!
