  • The Songbook that Helped Zac Maas Love Country
    Sep 10 2024

    This week we go in a totally new direction: we discuss not a song, not an album, not even an artist, but a BOOK that was a gateway to country music. Of all things, it was the Reader's Digest Country and Western Songbook that helped this week's guest, comedian Zac Maas, discover his love of country music.

  • Phases and Stages by Willie Nelson
    Sep 3 2024

    We're back! And for the month of September we are doing something special—a series of episodes about concept albums that we are calling CONCEPTEMBER! First we are digging one of Willie Nelson's best albums (if not his absolute best) which came out 50 years ago this year, Phases and Stages, a concept album about divorce and how both sides of the couple experience it differently.

    2024 has arguably been one of the best years for new country music in quite a while. With acclaimed releases from favorites like Kacey Musgraves and Sturgill Simpson (er...I mean, Johnny Blue Skies), innovative LPs from rising stars like Willi Carlisle and Sierra Ferrell, country debuts from megastars Beyoncé and Post Malone, and killer releases from country's most prolific songwriters Zach Bryan and Charley Crockett, there's a lot for country fans to be excited about. There's also arguably too much to keep track of.

    This week we dig into the best albums of 2024, so far. Let us know what you think—what's your favorite? What did we miss? What do we need to hear?

  • Did Sturgill Simpson (aka Johnny Blue Skies) Just Release the Best Country Album of 2024?
    Jul 23 2024

    Want more Take This Pod and Shove It? Consider supporting us on Patreon HERE! (Patreon.com/takethispod)

    After blowing out his vocal chords and leaving much speculation about if or when he might ever return to music, Sturgill Simpson suddenly dropped a new album, Passage du Desir. This week Danny and Tyler talk about the new album, released as Sturgill's new alter ego Johnny Blue Skies, and discuss how Sturgill went on a globe-trotting quest to find himself, only to discover something totally new that's also satisfyingly familiar.
