    Entertainment entrepreneurs Walid Chaya and Kavita Raj present a special two-part episode featuring two Hollywood moms who are the driving force behind their children's showbiz careers in music, dance, and acting. This is part 1 of 2.

    Meet our two Special Guests, first Andrea Knoche, a dynamic mother and podcaster who fosters the talents of her two sons. Grant Knoche, renowned for his stint as a Kidz Bop Kid, has evolved into a Los Angeles-based singer-songwriter and producer. He was most recently on NBC's “American Song Contest” with his song “Mr Independent”. Meanwhile, Hunter Knoche, once a child star in commercials for Smucker's jam and in the cast of Barney, has seamlessly transitioned into a successful entrepreneur with a focus on creative brand deals for gamers.

    And our second Special Guest, Nanette Wilson, the influential force behind artist Ciara Riley Wilson, nurtured her daughter's talent, propelling her into the spotlight as a versatile performer and rising fashion designer from Portland, Oregon. Ciara Riley Wilson, known for dynamic roles in TV shows like "LA's Finest" and "Kim Possible," captivates audiences. Ciara is currently a series regular in “Freeridge” on Netflix.

    Episodes in this third season, airing this summer, originally debuted on iHeartRadio via the Rukus Avenue Radio station on our spin-off show, "Lights Camera Convo." We're thrilled to bring these favorite radio episodes to our podcast, along with never-before-seen YouTube video premieres.
