As usual, there were some big surprises along with this year's announcement of The Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame's 2023 nominees.

Eight of the fourteen artists nominated are first-time nominees, four are women, and one has been eligible for 20 years! This afternoon I had a chance to chat with the CEO of The Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame And Museum, Greg Harris. Not only did I learn a lot about the nominees, the Hall and the awards process, but I also found out Greg is from the Delaware Valley, went to Temple University and co-founded one of Philadelphia's coolest indie record stores!

We had a great conversation about this year's festivities, and you can hear it right here:
