Caryn Ganz just published a lovely, career-spanning profile of the great Kim Deal, who will release her first full-length solo album next week.

Meanwhile, former North Carolina public defender Caryn Devins Strickland is still fighting for justice in her lawsuit against the U.S.

First of all, I’d like to thank the guest playlisters who filled in for me last week, Caryn Ganz and Ben Sisario.

Lindsay is desperately seeking some time off this week, so I am the first of your guest playlisters: Caryn, the pop music editor.
