Welcome to episode 19 of M2H2, the Mountain Music Half Hour, hosted by Randy Black from Johns Creek Studios in Milton, West Virginia. This episode, recorded on October 23, 2024, comes with a couple of new rules for listeners: tune in using a modern podcast app and make sure to boost and stream to support the artists featured on the show. We kick off with Nate Johnivan's 'Fake Love,' a track that delves into the complexities of relationships and self-reflection.
Following that, we enjoy Jesse Lark's 'Rainbows,' a song discovered on The Split Kit, bringing a fresh sound to the lineup. 'Out on the Streets' by Effigies keeps the energy high with its rocking beat. Randy emphasizes the importance of using podcast apps that support value and time splits, like Fountain, which allows listeners to send boosts and stream value directly to artists.
Next, we introduce Garage T. Rashington III with 'Brain and Chain,' a track that explores themes of mental struggle and liberation. The episode continues with 'Looking Fine' by My Favorite Band, a song that humorously reflects on the fleeting nature of relationships.
We also feature 'Ode to Ashley' by 18 Sundays, a playful tribute to a friend, and 'Don't Count Me Out' by Jimmie Bratcher, a soulful reminder of resilience and hope. Randy highlights the Payday Picks, a ranking system for listener payments, showcasing top tracks like 'Girls at Kroger' by Luke Jenison and 'I Need a Little' by The Retrograde.
Closing the show, we listen to 'We're Not Even Drinking' by Jessica Lynn Witty, a lively country tune that defies stereotypes. Randy encourages listeners to continue supporting artists by streaming sats and sending boosts, reinforcing the value-for-value model that underpins the show. Thank you for tuning in to M2H2, where music and community come together.
