Josh Ritter is a successful and celebrated songwriter, and I feel convinced after my conversation with him that his songwriting is so good, in part, because he does not particularly care about being successful or celebrated. As he once wrote in “Snow is gone”, “I'm singing for the love of it / Have mercy on the man who sings to be adored”. I loved talking to him.

REGARDING THE VIDEO VERSION OF THE SHOW: You'll notice that I've released this episode in both audio and video format. I assumed that it would not publish on podcatchers that don't support video, but it has. If you're using overcast (or a similar podcatcher) and would like the video version, just look for the show on YouTube, it's easiest to find the video there. If you're sticking with audio, switch over to the audio version of this episode, it has slightly more content.

Fans of the banjo! Fans of punk and folk and poetry! Fans of awesome, brilliant women! (I should have all of you at this point). This month’s guest is one half of the band “The Lowest Pair”, songwriter and all around great hang Kendl Winter. The two songs we discuss in this episode are totally unlike any other songs I’ve had on the show and this is one great episode. Don’t miss it and don’t miss Kendl’s brand new album of banjo instrumentals, “Banjo Mantras”, Available in some awesome different vinyl covers, if that kind of thing tickles your fancy.
