Delilah: The Untold Story Behind Radio's Most Comforting Voice

Delilah, one of the most iconic voices in American radio, sits down with Bunnie Xo for a raw, emotional, and surprisingly funny deep dive into the life behind her legendary late-night show. With 8–10 million weekly listeners, she’s been the comforting voice in America’s bedrooms for decades—but here she opens up in a way you rarely hear.

In this episode, Delilah talks about growing up with a high-functioning alcoholic father and a codependent mother, discovering secret half-siblings just miles away, and even being duct-taped by a teacher for talking too much—only to turn that “problem” into a superpower and a record-breaking radio career. She shares the harsh sexism and harassment she faced in radio, the mentor who helped her transform a throwaway nighttime shift into a national brand, and the night she hit rock bottom, asked God to prove He was real, and began a completely new chapter of faith.

Delilah also takes us inside her life as a mom to a huge blended family through birth, foster care, and international adoption, and she doesn’t shy away from the dark realities of the foster system or the trauma so many kids carry. She opens up about losing her son Sammy to sickle cell complications and her son Zach to suicide after SSRI side effects, and how she still chooses love, service, and God in the middle of unthinkable grief. From farm-to-table living, gardening and cows, to a house full of kids and multiple girls named Delilah, this conversation is as real and layered as it gets.
