On the Saturday June 6, 2026 edition of The Richard Crouse Show we’ll meet singer-songwriter, TV host, producer, director and composer Kevin Gillis, creator of the beloved and legendary animated show “The Raccoons.” He is ushering in a new era for the beloved franchise as its iconic music is released digitally for the first time. Last month, the original version of the beloved theme song “Run With Us,” performed by Lisa Lougheed, arrived on streaming services for the first time ever. This leads into the release this month of “Evergreen Nights,” the first full album in the collection, featuring newly remastered originals with fresh interpretations from contemporary artists as part of a larger, multi-phase expansion. “Evergreen Nights” is available now wherever you legally buy, download and stream music.

Then, we’ll meet queer feminist author and high priestess of home mixology Lindsay Merbaum. She is an author and mixologist specializing in custom and themed drink recipes like the themed drinks she creates for her books! Today we talk ablout her new book, “Vampires at Sea,” which is a kind of an Anne Rice / Love Boat romp featuring two ageless vampires on a cruise.
