This week's guest is one of the most legendary country artists of all time. He is a 4x platinum artist as well as ACM's Artist of the Decade. He is an avid Georgia Bulldogs fan, owner of countless businesses, and knows how to have a damn good time: JASON ALDEAN
First, Jason and ERNEST talk about Jason's first few years in Nashville and what had to happen for him to find his footing in this industry. Then, they jump into his country music "freshman class" and what it was like performing with Ludacris at the CMT awards. Next, they answer some fan questions, discuss why Tyler Farr's property is excellent for slinging mud as well as getting a tan by the horse trough, and we hear about Jason's ventures in the music industry. Finally, they close out the episode with how Jason's outdoor brand, Buck Commander, came to be, the two discuss their favorite artists (Jason's pick may surprise you), and Jason describes which awards have meant the most to him.
Oh yeah, and disaster finds ERNEST while recording...

Sean Stemaly

This week's guest is a good ol' country boy who knows his way around a Deere, loves the smell of diesel in the morning, and strikes fear in the hearts of ducks everywhere: SEAN STEMALY
ERNEST and Sean talk about what it was like to move to Nashville from Southern Indiana, how Sean grew up driving tractors, and why Sean's history of building some very impressive engines is going to come in handy when Ern lets Sean do some work on his new truck. Then, they discuss who keeps a fire lit under their asses when it comes to songwriting, how social media has changed the music industry as a whole, and the two talk about their favorite Nashville bars. Finally, while he pours some refills on their tequila, Ern puts Sean's duck hunting knowledge to the test with a little pop quiz.
