On Roundy’s Rants, Raves and Reviews, Tanya interviews singer, actress, and model Liahona Olayan, originally from Hawaii and now based in Utah, who competed on American Idol Season 19 at 16 and reached the Top 24, later releasing her album “Just Me Liahona.” Liahona shares how reality TV shaped her, how she set firm standards around faith and modesty despite industry pressure, and a defining lesson from her father about worth and virtue. She discusses accountability, repentance, and choosing to save physical intimacy for marriage, pushing back on “test drive” dating culture. Liahona explains how her family’s move to Hawaii and living in a tent deepened gratitude, humility, and her relationship with God, inspiring her songwriting and mission testimony through music. She also mentions upcoming concerts and competing in the Miss Greater Salt Lake pageant.

Latino by Birth, American by Choice | Juan Pablo Panchano on Faith, Freedom & the Spirit of America
https://latinobybirthamericanbychoice.com/
Host Tanya Roundy interviews Juan Pablo Panchano, a Cali, Colombia–born filmmaker-turned-audiologist and new author, about his book “Latino by Birth, American by Choice.” Juan shares moving to New Jersey at 12, his film production work (including projects like Spider-Man and Law & Order), and what inspired his writing on the “spirit of America” as a God-centered call to growth beyond geography or citizenship. He explains his ideas on knowledge, unity, liberty as agency, and why moral and religious principles are essential for freedom, referencing founding-era perspectives and contrasts with Latin America’s historical attachment to old systems. Juan discusses his hopes for renewed unity, love, and kindness, where to find the book (Amazon and latinobybirthamericanbychoice.com), and his upcoming community video project, “Pick Up Your Piece.”

This is a video about Sourdough and the Savior: An allegory for our Time with Ganel-lyn Condie

https://a.co/d/0hrH4w3s

Host Tanya Roundy welcomes author and speaker Ganel-lyn Condie to discuss her new book, “Sourdough and the Savior” (her 20th, released in February), and how sourdough became a metaphor for faith, healing, and resilience. Ganel-lyn shares her background in teaching, media, and the intersection of mental health and faith following the suicide of her sister 12 years ago, plus her long-term lupus diagnosis and family life. She explains how her writing began from spiritual promptings, how grief shaped her first book, and the importance of timing, vulnerability, and a stewardship (not ownership) mindset in work, health, and relationships. Ganel-lyn outlines the book’s sourdough steps—start, feed, grow, create, share—connecting them to Christ as the “bread of life,” and closes with encouragement to honor quiet, “middle” seasons of uncertainty.
