World Cafe Playlist for 10/13/2026

The Army, The Navy joins host Stephen Kallao

There’s something special about the bond between Maia Ciamberello and Sasha Goldberg, who perform together as The Army, The Navy. Friends, bandmates, roommates: their closeness is at the heart of their debut album, Fake Brave Life, where the duo take the intimacy of their earlier work and expand it into something bigger, inspired by movies with huge soundtracks. On the World Cafe, The Army, The Navy talk about what goes into faking – and then finding – confidence.

Listen to the session here.
