Tulsa since 1898 and Hometown Heroes since 2006. Two short years ago and with help from "Podcasting For Dummies", Davit and Dustin became dummies podcasting. We're in no way suggesting they no longer need help, but they are finding their way. However, the music from Tulsa needs absolutely no help at all. T-Town is a great place to live, made even better by it's music and the musicians who make it. With worldwide listenership in the thousands and growing each week, the proof is in the pudding or in this case, the music.

Channel 6 News in Tulsa recently did a nice feature on Hometown Heroes and our companion podcast iROK Radio:

Ah, late April, early May in Tulsa, Oklahoma. Not counting Kansas, we're right in the middle of this United States. Rain and 50 degrees one day, sunshine and 80 degrees the next. We experience every season here in T-Town and as fate would have it, every musical genre as well. The daily weather may change, but the outstanding quality of music never does. Host Davit Souders and producer Dustin Parkhurst feel pretty darn lucky to live here. They even own "I love (heart) Tulsa" t-shirts. Now that's commitment. That's why they also love showing off the music that provides the awesome soundtrack to the Tulsa experience. We've certainly said it before, if you lived here, you'd be home now.

Callupsie- The Murderous Type

Unlike television, the little podcast that could and does, did not have a writers strike. So we have consistently given you a brand new episode each and every week including this show. That adds up to 93 fun-filled weeks of music from the 93rd largest city in North America. 93 would seem to be the magic number this week. Host Davit Souders and producer Dustin Parkhurst believe that every song they include in every single podcast/broadcast is magical in its own way. As you enjoy T-Town music, you also learn two fun facts about Tulsa and/or Oklahoma. Is it true the Air National Guard recently bombed Midtown Tulsa? Why you'll just have to listen, the truth and Tulsa music will set you free...
