My disabled ass can barely afford to live in Shreveport. It's absolutely wild that folks think I've got "flee the country" money.

I don't even have weekend trip to New Orleans money...

Hell, that dirtbag earnestness is why I pay attention to you in the first place. You do what you do, and the right people will find ya. If they don't like it, fuck 'em.

"ma'am, this IS me being broad. If you don't like this, you REALLY wouldn't like what I don't share.."

I swear, folks don't know how to keep opinions to themselves...

Shit, I got three places back here in Shreveport, and two in Bossier, that'll beat that. On of em, I swear, you don't even have to get out of the car.

But that's because most of the garages here understand folks are bringing in their only ride, and can't afford a tag ticket.

"My shield is raised and my visor is lowered" is a nice way of saying "I don't see shit about what's happening, I'm just prepared for impact"

As far as obscure conflicts go, there a LOT IN Shreveport Sounds that explains the beef between Shreveport and Nashville.

Or, more specifically, why Shreveport thinks Nashville can go fuck itself. LOTS of talent poaching...

Pick up anything written by Dr. Tracey Laird. She wrote THE book on the Louisiana Hayride, was the driving force behind the 50th anniversary update of Country Music USA, and likely knows more about your musical roots than you do.

Not my favorite song on his new album, but it definitely doesn't get a skip.

Another fantastic choice! They're in the same podcast family.

If you need a palate cleanser, Cool People Who Did Cool Stuff is the exact opposite podcast. Same style, but cooler subjects.

Is it Weird Little Guys, by any chance? @socialistdogmom.bsky.social is doing great work when it comes to making Nazis look like, well, weird little guys

I was listening to a whole album of Willie duets the other day while cleaning. Man, that happy old stoner really has made a whole-ass career out of an ampersand, hasn't he?

Dude loves a collab, and I love that for him.

Honestly, I miss Popn' Pizza. They had cinnamon sticks with icing injected into it, like a dessert stuffed crust.

We're just a bit too north for frog legs and gator tail, but Johnny's will throw just about every other Creole cooking staple onto a pizza. It's excessive, indulgent, and a bit ridiculous, but that's Shreveport for ya. Gotta enjoy something before Lent...
