The culture he grew up in tried to crush Ethan Thomas. Being gay and growing up in a conservative family and church in the 90s made Ethan become hidden and even resentful of himself. Why couldn’t he just pray the gay away? But somehow Ethan wasn’t crushed, he found a way to make it through and now can begin to finally live as the real Ethan.

#601 Flowers In The Sidewalk With Ethan Thomas

All we ever do is make music, talk shit, and do fun things that lead to good stories. That's what the Emery culture is about. We love telling you band stories and even more, we love convincing your favorite artists to tell their stories... even the ones they probably shouldn't. 

Join us each week to hear amazing stories from the road, Song Rescue (where we roast and improve listeners songs), the Damn News, and more!

Toby Puts The “Hustle” In “Side Hustle”

If we told you there were 300 billion stars in the universe you would believe us, but if we told you the paint was still wet you would have to touch it to believe us. So, your mom, who is so old that when she was born the Dead Sea was still just getting sick, shouldn’t listen to this.
