I over complicated the above, it can be simplified to:
CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION public.new_event_session(p_event_id text,
p_start_time timestamp with time zone, p_end_time timestamp with time
zone, p_sess_title text, p_sess_desc text)
RETURNS text
LANGUAGE plpgsql
AS $function$
DECLARE
v_session_id text;
BEGIN
INSERT INTO event_sessions(event_id, evt_sess_id, evt_sess_times)
VALUES(p_event_id, 2, tstzrange(p_start_time, p_end_time))
RETURNING evt_sess_id INTO v_session_id;
RETURN v_session_id;
END;
$function$

select * from event_sessions ;
event_id | evt_sess_id | evt_sess_times
| evt_sess_inserted
