This week Reid and Dan Isbell host multi #1 songwriter and artist, John Morgan, out in God’s Country. The guys dive in on what it looks like for John to juggle road life with a newborn and how his three kids inspire him to continue his journey as an artist. John hails from North Carolina and they talk through what growing up hunting in the mountains looked like and some updates on how the people in the area are recovering from the 2024 devastating hurricanes. He breaks down what Ginseng hunting looks like in their culture and the different ways people benefit from their findings. John’s Nashville story is the most interesting one you will hear on this podcast and tune in to hear how a random phone call from Jason Aldean changed his life. The episode ends with a Keith Whitley gravorite and we’re still not over it.
