The Chris Court Show: An Indie Music Podcast

(Recorded 10/2/26) E340: "Because 69" (36m)

Buckle up, because this week’s episode is pure, unadulterated chaos.

Chris and Matt are unpacking the wild Christa Pike drama, Kid Rock suddenly finding Jesus (well, at least halfway) alongside Eminem, and a 69-car pileup that happened for the most immature reason possible—because of course it did.

Plus, want your music on the show without waiting in line? We break down how you can grab a Fast Pass on Ko-fi. Every single dime goes right back into supporting independent artists, so you get airplay and good karma all in one shot.
