This week's episode is sponsored by the Choose Your Struggle podcast. Listen to real-life people share their struggles with addiction and mental health and #EndTheStigma today.

Otherwise, not a whole lot going on -- just the usual blend of Americana, country, punk and funk! Album of the Week: Uncle Ben's Remedy -- Easy Way to Here
If you're looking for some of that rough-and-tumble country punk that's so hard to find these days, check out Easy Way to Here. There's nothing but great songs and boot-stomping here. Uncle Ben's Remedy can part as hard as anybody, but when they want to slow things down and delve into the small tragedies of every day people, they do a fantastic job there, too. The album came out in December, but it's good a way to start the year as any.
