Reggie & Ladye Love are interviewed by Tori Taff, Gene McDonald, Daniel Britt, and also by the late Amber Nelon which would be among her final radio recordings for the show. The interview segments were recorded while at sea on the Gaither Caribbean Cruise last fall and will be featured throughout the program.
