We welcome our special guest Jeremy Holehan (Supertouch, Miracle Drug) to talk about growing up in Kentucky, chance encounters at shopping malls, and the inextricable links between country and hardcore. We also dive into some records by Willie Nelson, Hank III, and Colter Wall. There's a Manitoba Man behind the fillin' station store.

Join us as we talk about an often overlooked gem from Steve's catalogue, I'll Never Get Out of This World Alive. Also, Tied Down Fest, baseball in London, terrible cops, and bringing back the draft. You know, the usuals. Yeah, I believe in God, and God ain't me.

Join us as we welcome a very special guest from Memphis, Tennessee, the one and only Bryan Hartley. We discuss the joys of touring, North Mississippi geography, and how if they call your show an after-party, no one is gonna come. We also dig into some excellent records by Dwight Yoakam, Kathleen Edwards, and Mississippi's own Andrew Bryant. Hey hey, we all wanna fall in love.

We're talking Townes (Van Zandt) again this week, but this time through his own records and not Steve's interpretations. Also: old man shows, college, and Marian apparitions. So shake the dust off of your wings and the sleep out of your eyes.

We're back, after a very brief hiatus, to discuss Steve's 2009 tribute to Townes Van Zandt. RIP Townes. RIP Eddie Sutton. Please lay off the string scratches this time, Tom Morello.

Join us as we discuss Leaves of Grass, the Walt Whitman-inspired 2009 film starring Edward Norton (twice) and Steve Earle playing a mean dude from Oklahoma. You have a spiritual objection to monofilament?

Tyler and Brian are together in Brooklyn to talk about Steve's move to New York and the first album he put out after crossing the Hudson, Washington Square Serenade. Just three Southern boys who dream of nights in NYC.

Join us for the third (and final) part of our deep dive on The Wire. For Walon, for Bubs, for folks in recovery everywhere. And if this little detour hasn't been your thing, don't worry, we'll be back to nerding out about Steve's music on the next episode.
