What Else? with Corey Mann

In this episode, our guest is Mac Powell—one of the most recognizable voices in Christian music. Whether fronting his band Third Day (which is reuniting for a 2026 spring tour) or through his solo work, Mac is known for keeping family first. We dive into his love of reading—he’s currently working through a book about Paul McCartney—and swap thoughts on everything from the new Superman movie to whether Corey would actually join Mac on a future adventure. It’s an honest, fun, and wide-ranging conversation you won’t want to miss.Instagram @mrcoreymannemail the podcast @whatelsewithcoreymann@gmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/what-else-with-corey-mann--5802358/support.
