    This episode was intended for release back in January, but was delayed several times, for which I apologize. The episode's length is due in part to the samples of each song in the chart countdowns.

    Episode 15: Blue Collar Comedy Tour, COVID-19, ACM Awards 2020 - The Social Distance Episode (Recorded 03/19/2020)

    Howdy! Welcome to the Cedar Country podcast, where we talk about country music! Hosted by Ray and RJ from the Dungeons & Dragons podcast Realms & Nerds! Apologies: This episode was recorded toward the beginning of the Coronavirus COVID-19 pandemic back, and to keep us socially distanced and simultaneously test remote recording quality, Ray's audio was recorded over a video call, hence the lower quality of his microphone. In our fifteenth episode, Ray and RJ discuss: The Blue Collar Comedy Tour & Grand Rapids' annual LaughFest event, cancellations of and changes to events and shows due to the pandemic, Brad & Kimberley Paisley's Instagram & Facebook livestream concert, The Grand Ole Opry, the 2020 ACM Awards, and new music the week of 3/19/2020.

    Episode 14: COUNTRY ARTIST INTERVIEW: Daniel Borge and His New Single, "Time"!

    Howdy! Welcome to this very special episode of the Cedar Country podcast, where we talk about country music! Hosted by Ray and RJ from the Dungeons and Dragons podcast, "Realms & Nerds"! On this episode of the show, we had the absolute pleasure of interviewing up-and-coming country music artist Daniel Borge, who is gearing up to release his next single, "Time", releasing tomorrow, Friday, May 28, 2021! From the song's press release: "...“Time” tells a thought-provoking and relatable story of a narrator experiencing regret and wanting to go back in time. Borge and Branch put a clever spin on the concept, personifying “time” as a man that the narrator wishes he could reason with to turn the back the clock... The mid-tempo country track features modern, radio-ready production as well as a melody that evokes nostalgia. “Time” also highlights Borge’s rich voice and ability to convey emotions with his vocal delivery. Borge said his feelings about this past year inspired him to write the song with Branch. He explained, “I believe the lyrics are especially relatable because of the pandemic. We ́ve all had a lot of extra time to think and reflect on life and the choices we’ve made in the past...”“Time” follows Borge’s previous singles, “There I Was” and “Room 208,” all three of which Borge plans to include in his upcoming album, due out later this year." Apologies for the audio balance issues during the interview. RJ accidentally had the volume settings reversed, so Daniel may be a little hard to hear at points. This is definitely something we'll fix for any other interviews we may have on the show. We had a wonderful time interviewing Daniel on the show, and think that this song is definitely worth your time! We'd also love to hear it get played on the radio. Let your local country stations know about the song! Help it rise on the streaming charts as well!

    Episode 13: Ray's First Country Concert - Garth Brooks in Detroit, February 22 (Recorded 02/23/2020)

    Howdy! Welcome to the Cedar Country podcast, where we talk about country music! Hosted by Ray and RJ from the Dungeons & Dragons podcast Realms & Nerds! ANNOUNCEMENT: PLEASE KEEP AN EYE OUT FOR OUR NEXT EPISODE! IT'S A HUGE EPISODE FOR US! WILL BE RELEASED ON WEDNESDAY OR THURSDAY! Apologies: This episode was recorded during a timeframe when our microphone mixing board accidentally had some knobs turned up on some reverb effects, which can't be removed easily in post, so that's why things sound echoey at points. In our thirteenth episode, Ray tells RJ about his experience at the Garth Brooks concert at Ford Field in Detroit, Michigan on February 22, 2020. This was the last episode recorded prior to the COVID-19 outbreak in 2020, and therefore includes discussion of then-upcoming events that may have been cancelled, postponed, or altered due to the pandemic.

    Episode 12: Popular Country Music Timeline, Part Three: 1812-1849 (Pre-Country Music)

    Howdy! Welcome to the Cedar Country podcast, where we talk about country music! Hosted by Ray and RJ from the Dungeons & Dragons podcast Realms & Nerds! A few warnings for this episode: First and foremost, we do discuss a few songs that contain racist themes and elements. As always, we do this as a means to educate on history. Second, this episode was recorded during a timeframe when our microphone mixing board accidentally had some knobs turned up on some reverb effects, which can't be removed easily in post, so that's why things sound echoey at points. In our twelfth episode, we continue our journey through the history of popular country music songs. However, we're still way back in 1812-1849 (between approximately 106-69 years before country music's official inception). Essentially, we're looking at popular (at the time they were published, at least) music that helped lead the way to the birth of country music.
