Howdy y'all! This week we're taking it back to our roots with an episode all about Country music. Country has a reputation for being a very white, male-dominated space. But is that reputation still deserved? We talk about what, if any, progress has been made for women, POC and LGBTQ+ artists. Plus we discuss the online backlash to this week's Game of Thrones episode.
