Free Ramblin' Men: A Country Music Podcast
Ever heard the saying, "if you're middle of the road, you get run over?" And that was before social media… That’s how this new country music podcast began. With an idea to see arguments from both sides. To restore balance to an imbalanced genre. And yet, to add some fair and free commentary along the way. Co-hosts Stuart and John plan to outrun the pressure of picking a side. They plan on ramblin’ free. And as any good podcast should be, this shall be a gateway into the industry. The industry that is country music. Welcome in, to Free Ramblin' Men.
