Welcome to the 'What Country Is' podcast! Join Sara as she dives into up-to-date topics about country music and country living. As a small-town girl from Upstate New York, Sara has grown up learning what it means to be country and realizing that there are rednecks everywhere. Her love for the simpler things in life and the genre that expresses those sentiments is why she wants to have a curiosity-induced conversation of the topics she finds to be interesting about the concept of what it means to be country.
Welcome back to the podcast! Sara has been away for a few months and is ready to answer all the questions you probably have had since she was away. This one gets deep. So strap in!
Welcome back to the second season of the What Country Is Podcast. We've got a lot to talk about. So let's just jump right in!
Summer is here, everybody! We're talking about everything summer from the music to the activities. Sara touches a little bit on what she's been listening to and what it takes to be a country summer anthem. And of course, goes in deep talking about the results of the summer-themed Instagram poll.
Welcome back! Sara gives a little insight into why she missed last week's upload but jumps right in with some fun country music content. Asking the question, “Will Chris Young go out with me?” and telling her crazy fun concert experience stories. Finally, she covered this week's Instagram poll about country music icons with some interesting results.
Sara has a very strange encounter with the cops that might involve a true mystery as well as dishing out some strong opinions about the results of the Academy of Country Music Awards. She gives an update on what she's been listening to this week and gets in deep with her country sub-genre poll this week.
What better way to start off the week than with honey cupcakes and Cody Johnson. This week Sara talks about songs that influenced her (and her Instagram followers) to explore country music, shares her totally unique and original recipe for honey cupcakes, gives a brief update on the career of Morgan Wallen and is clearly excited about her new set up which needs a windscreen for next week. Oops...
Sara really gets into this week's episode by having a maybe too long of an intro life update that includes turtle church, covid vaccines, and the great cat fiasco. She sprinkles in a handful of thought-provoking statements about outlaw country and completes the episode by checking out the results of her Instagram poll about country music clichés.
In this week's episode, Sara talks about her newfound inspiration for songwriting, Jensen Ackles and his music-making escapades, bringing a new pet into her life and the possible names it could have, and lastly what Disney songs would be great Country Songs based on her Instagram responses.
Sara gushes over her favorite acapella group "Home Free" and is joined by her furry co-host who has some purrfect country music commentary.
Sara takes a look at the results of the 2021 Grammy's in the country categories. Discussing the contribution of women to the genre and taking a deep dive into Mickey Guyton and her historical performance of her song "Black Like Me".
