Ep. #1076: Morgan Nagler

Morgan Nagler is here to discuss her long-awaited debut solo album, I’ve Got Nothing to Lose, and I’m Losing It, her connection to nature, compiling songs she wrote during a long relationship that she realized predicted the end of that relationship, fuelling up with grassoline, a deep bond she has formed with Kim Deal after Deal suggested they write songs together, her prolific child acting career and the clever way she earned a role on The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air, encountering Michael Jackson during a screen test for the “Smooth Criminal” video, whether she’ll ever act again, the dynamic, multi-genre sound of her new record, future plans, and much more.
