The War and Treaty’s Michael and Tanya Trotter grew up in Cleveland, Ohio, and Washington, DC, respectively, but both have family roots in the South. They also grew up in the musical traditions of their churches – Tanya in the Black Baptist Church and Michael in the Seventh Day Adventist Church – where they learned the power of song to move people. After becoming a father at a very young age, Michael eventually joined the armed forces and served in Iraq and Germany, where he took up songwriting as a way of dealing with his experiences there. Meanwhile Tanya embarked on a singing and acting career after a breakthrough appearance in Sister Act 2 alongside Whoopi Goldberg and Lauryn Hill. Now, after a long and sometimes traumatic journey, Michael and Tanya are married, touring, winning all sorts of awards, and set to release their fifth album together, and their fourth as The War and Treaty. Sid talks to Michael and Tanya about the new record, Plus One , as well as their collaboration with Miranda Lambert, what it was like to record at FAME studios in Muscle Shoals, and how they’re blending country, soul, gospel, and R&B.

And on the last day he said, Dad, that’s the only 10 out of 10 thing I’ve ever done in my life. I just had to keep him walking."

When you go somewhere and you ask for help, nothing more powerful than that. Being vulnerable is a strength, not a weakness. If Americans went out and saw the world they’d come back and say, it’s not what I thought, and they tell two people and they tell two people and they tell two people, and we change."

Teen-Tested, Tech-Approved: My Genesis Road Trip to Death Valley on The Tech Show 2:41

منذ 5 weeks2:41

2:41

Thanks to The Tech Show for having me! Host Sonya Gavankar leads this American television show, covering everything from the latest in tech news to apps, gadgets, and video games. I had a great time sharing my Death Valley road trip experience—an adventure in a high-tech Genesis G80 with my friend, who I worked with on cruise ships and scuba dived with—so she’s no stranger to adventure! She brought her two teens along, and we put this luxury sedan to the ultimate test. Death Valley is the largest national park in the contiguous United States, as well as the hottest, driest, and lowest of all the national parks in the country. That meant we needed a car that could handle the extreme conditions— enter the Genesis G80. It’s safe, tech-forward, and most importantly, spacious enough for two teens! Even when GPS failed and our phones lost service, the car’s tech (and a good old-fashioned ranger paper map) helped us navigate to our next stop and hotel. But the adventure didn’t stop there! For our next road trip, we took a Genesis GV70 to Joshua Tree , exploring even more stunning desert landscapes. (Links in the notes for all the details!) Luxury met adventure, and the Genesis lineup proved to be the ultimate road trip companion—smart, stylish, and reliable even in the most extreme conditions. Would you trust a high-tech car to guide you through the desert?

This is a recording of my talk at Stephen Wise Temple about my memoir, Brave-ish: One Breakup, Six Continents and Feeling Fearless After Fifty, for Shabbat. I wanted to share it as my book is now out for nearly a year. It has been such an incredible time of events, interviews and awards. FROM STEPHEN WISE TEMPLE Travel writer, author, podcaster, and Stephen Wise Temple Board member Lisa Niver, who just released her memoir, Brave-ish: One Breakup, Six Continents, and Feeling Fearless After Fifty, shared about her steps to Begin Again on Sept 29, 2023 for Shabbat and Sukkot. Lisa's memoir debuted as the top solo travel title on Amazon.com when it was released on Sept. 19. Her podcast, Make Your Own Map, launched this summer and has been watched on six continents. It was a finalist for two Southern California Journalism Awards in 2023. Elected this summer as a Congregational Director, Lisa is a graduate of Wise’s religious school program. Wise’s founder, Rabbi Isaiah Zeldin, officiated her bat mitzvah. She began her “nomadic” lifestyle by spending a summer in Israel on LA Ulpan, and went on to study abroad in Jerusalem at Hebrew University. She returned to Israel with her family for Rabbi Zeldin’s 80th birthday celebration. As a journalist, Lisa often shares articles about Wise clergy and services, most often through her column in the Jewish Journal. Lisa has taught religious school at Wise and science at Brawerman Elementary, and has spoken at Wise about the Jews of Morocco. Through the Jewish Federation, Lisa was part of the Rautenberg New Leaders Project and a mentor for the Julie Beren Platt Teen Innovation Grants Program.
