  • 18. Steve and Jill Grossman and My Wife: The Musicians Marriage
    "Marriages don't work when one partner is happy and the other is miserable. Marriage is about both people being equally miserable." In this season finale episode of N2M we get down to brass tax and talk about the musician and the marriage of a musician. This week I have some really special guests and people who know much more about marriage than I do. First up we have Steve and Jill Grossman. Both Steve and Jill are musicians, authors, and have a marriage counseling ministry. They have been married for almost 30 years and as they say most of them happily. They have 2 grown children. My next guest is a Marriage Counselor and Author and most importantly my wife Summer. We have 4 children, 3 boys and 1 girl. We all have an honest and open chat about the unique challenges of being married and a musician from the lack of steady income, to the travel and family adjustments, the emotional roller coaster that being married to a creative is, and even the groupie issue. So sit back, buckle up and adjust the rearview, we’ve been down this road befor…remember normal is just an exit a few miles back on this weeks episode of Nashville to Memphis. Now that Steve and I have finally figured women out go check out Steve’s work at www.stevegrossmanonline.com and Jill at www.jillgrossman.com AND also be on the look out for my wife Summer’s new book “I AM” out worldwide from all the outlets that outlet. That is a wrap on the first season of Nashville to Memphis. Thank you to all the guests and listeners and supporters. Next season will be out soon. Opening Quote from Forget Paris.

  • 17. Justin Patton: Social Media is Driving Us All Mad
    Like my all time personal hero Lloyd Dobler says, “I don't want to sell anything, buy anything, or process anything as a career. I don't want to sell anything bought or processed, or buy anything sold or processed, or process anything sold, bought, or processed, or repair anything sold, bought, or processed. You know, as a career, I don't want to do that.” It all starts with a nutty bar. The only multi-appearing guest this season of N2M is the one and only Justin Patton. He takes a break from his training for his NBA debut…sorry wrong Justin Patton. Justin is back to talk about the ills of social media, politics, why the fringe always wins, American Hubris, cultural assumptions and why humans crave security and control.  So sit back, buckle up and adjust the rearview, the exits for that Truckstop on 100 and Dunkin Donuts in Dickson are just ahead on this weeks episode of Nashville to Memphis. Now that Justin and have proved there was a 6 day creation you can all sleep much better at night. Opening Quote from Say Anything.

About Nashville2Memphis

From the publisher's feed

Nashville To Memphis is a podcast hosted by Dr. Jason Lee McKinney; a recording artist, songwriter, and the Rock Star Professor. N2M is a podcast where Jason and a guest or two talk about random crap Jason thinks about. Jason is a front pocket theologian, back pocket socio philosopher, and a jock strap surveyor of the modern music industry. You may not be able to make sense of it all but that's okay, neither can He.
