We're back and we're discussing "Our Mother The Mountain," Townes Van Zandt's second studio album and probably his goofiest release. We hate ICE. We love BD Wong and Wayne's World.

We're joined by Louisville's own Patrick Ryan (aka Moe) for a deep dive into Nebraska 82, Bruce Springsteen's recently released multi-disc set covering demos, outtakes, Electric Nebraska, a new live recording, and a remastered version of the 1982 masterpiece. Also: riding the bus, Scatman John, and building empathy for your parents. I guess there's just a meanness in this world.

Join us as we spend a lot of time talking about For The Children in Boston, and a little bit of time talking about Townes Van Zandt's 1968 debut studio album. Also: traumatic brain injuries, misplaced nostalgia for the early 2000s, and Hannibal Buress bits. Keep going, friends. Your stories are not yet written.

We have the absolute pleasure this week of chatting with our friend and brother, Aaron DuRall. Aaron talks to us about growing up in Joplin, Missouri, finding his voice in hardcore and in country music, and what motivated him to recently record and release some exceptional songs. For this edition of record club, we explore George Strait's "Strait from the Heart," Whiskeytown's "Stranger's Almanac," and Tyler Childers' "Bottles and Bibles." We don't toss away what we love.

This episode has it all: clowning on the Blood Brothers, extensive gig talk, random Memphis anecdotes, and a deep dive on 2005's Johnny Cash biopic, Walk The Line. Honestly, this movie is even better than you remember. Join us as we retroactively diagnose Johnny Cash's autism. "We're all goin' to hell for the songs we sing."

The world is bleak. We jump into the abyss and still find some things to laugh about. Also, Steve does a couple of interesting Tom Petty and Clash covers, and a Dutch DJ makes a remix of "Copperheard Road" that is so low-effort that it feels insulting. Join us.

Today we're exploring the most recent of Steve's tribute records, 2022's "Jerry Jeff," dedicated to the incredible Mr. Jerry Jeff Walker. Also, this podcast is now fully endorsed by the Grocery Store Straight Edge. Picture of my face, on the window pane, is it tears I see or is it rain?

Our special guest for today's Record Club is Zane Pugh, who sings for the killer San Antonio band, Hardside. Join us as we discuss Alan Jackson's "Here in the Real World," Gillian Welch's "Hell Among the Yearlings," and Margo Price's "Midwest Farmer's Daughter." From what I've found, this town gets around.
