Join us as we welcome another special guest, friend of the pod and Louisville hardcore legend Scott Keeling, to hang out and discuss some of our favorite records by Guy Clark, Tré Burt, and Drive-By Truckers. Rock and roll means well but it can't help telling young boys lies.

Join us as we explore The Mountain, where Steve teams up with the Del McCoury Band and makes it sound like he's been playing bluegrass since he came out of the womb. Let's keep singing, just as long as our luck and our lungs hold out.

For all of us who still can't get through "Wildflowers" without tearing up. Whether your day is a diamond or a rock, I hope you'll spend part of it with us.

We're back, with a tribute to one of the greatest songwriters to ever live, Mr. Thomas Earl Petty. We picked six albums from his massive discography, and dive into three of them here. Remember, even the losers get lucky sometimes. Also, time is most definitely a flat circle.

Let's talk about a record that AP writers called "one of the top 10 best pop albums of the 90s." Right up there with Dr. Dre, Beck, Lauryn Hill, and Portishead. Come on, let's go. This ain't Louisiana. Your mama won't know.

On June 25th, 1996, Steve Earle played a show at the Cold Creek Correctional Facility in West Tennessee, as a condition of his parole. In addition to making a killer live recording, MTV was also on-hand to make a mini-documentary, that included lots of great footage of Steve and the Dukes, and also quite a bit of standard-issue court-mandated war on drugs carceral state nonsense. Come for the tunes, stay for the prison abolition.

This week we are joined by our good friend, Tom Sheehan (Indecision, Most Precious Blood, Axe To Grind Podcast), who was gracious enough to come hang with us and talk about some of our favorite records. Come hang out as we dig into some classics from Lucero, Emmylou Harris, and Sturgill Simpson, and learn about how a Brooklyn boy came to have such great taste in country music.

We're back with a dive into "I Feel Alright," Steve's first record of all new material since his early 90's "vacation." Come stand with us at hell's door with a bad attitude and a .44

Join us as we discuss the 1976 documentary "Heartworn Highways" and ask the tough questions: Was Riley Gale a Townes Van Zandt fan? Is David Allan Coe a poseur? Will we get off this LA freeway without getting killed or caught?

While it doesn't feel quite right to call this a "comeback album," it was in many ways. Steve is back, he's sober, and he's got an arsenal of great songs that he wrote back in the 70s, along with a few new ones and some covers. Join us as we fight for no country but die for good pay.
