Braden Jamison's voice hits you immediately – authentic, rooted in tradition, yet distinctly his own. The Oklahoma native's path to Nashville wasn't straight, having grown up playing four sports simultaneously before making the pivotal decision to quit basketball his junior year to pursue music. That choice led to an unforgettable opportunity: opening for Toby Keith after just one band rehearsal.After moving to Nashville in 2020 to attend Belmont University, Braden embraced the songwriter's grind, collaborating with anyone willing while developing thick skin through critique. His persistence paid off when a publishing class introduction to Chris at Seagull Music led to an internship that evolved into his first publishing deal in 2024.The stories behind Braden's songs reveal both his creative process and lived experience. "CattyWampus," a standout track from his May EP release, began as a title nobody wanted to write until Lee Star embraced the concept, resulting in what Braden describes as his favorite song sonically. "Suits Me Just Fine" captures the reality of driving between gigs with barely enough money for gas while watching friends pursue more lucrative careers – "Ain't nobody getting rich, sometimes we play for tips." Meanwhile, "When It Comes to You" emerged victorious after Braden wrote three consecutive love songs, searching for the perfect track to complete his project.Braden's band name "The Neon Strangers" came about accidentally when his brother jokingly suggested it during a show introduction. Now touring regularly, he finds the greatest reward in fans singing his lyrics back to him and sharing how his music has become part of their lives.With his distinctive voice, thoughtful songwriting, and hard-earned wisdom ("The only way it for sure doesn't happen is if you stop doing it"), Braden Jamison represents country music's promising future. Listen and discover an artist whose honky-tonk heart and genuine approach to his craft will leave you wanting more.

Step into the creative minds of Nashville's legendary songwriting troublemakers, the Warren Brothers. Brett and Brad Warren's unfiltered conversation reveals how two boys from Tampa, Florida—raised in a household so strict they couldn't walk down the beer aisle at Publix—transformed into the hitmaking duo behind some of country music's most iconic songs.Their journey unfolds like a country song itself—packed with unexpected twists, poignant revelations, and belly laughs. The brothers recount how basketball skills, not musical talent, secured their friendship with Tim McGraw (leading to 37 song cuts), and how their early co-writes with Tom Douglas taught them the vulnerability required for great songwriting. From homemade Earth Shoes to spearfishing with McGraw, their stories paint an authentic picture of Nashville's creative community at its most raw and genuine.The conversation takes a powerful turn when the brothers discuss getting sober and the transformative shift from being "collectors of everyone else's energy" to serving others through their music. This perspective change coincided with their greatest successes, including McGraw's emotional war tribute "If You're Reading This" and Toby Keith's party anthem "Red Solo Cup"—a song they wrote as a joke that became a cultural phenomenon.As they reflect on thirty years in the business, the Warrens share priceless insights about creative partnerships, the evolution of Nashville's sound, and finding purpose in an industry constantly reinventing itself. Their candid discussion about cherishing longstanding friendships and focusing on quality over quantity resonates far beyond songwriting, touching on universal truths about authenticity and legacy.Whether you're a songwriter, music lover, or someone navigating your own creative journey, this conversation will inspire you to embrace your unique path, cherish meaningful connections, and find the courage to put your truth into your work.

The Lesser Known People Network proudly hosts The Wi-Files, presented by Jay Munnie. Check us out! The gang is niche now.    In this episode of The Wi-Files, we dive headfirst into the unhinged digital sermon that is Jesus-Is-Savior.com—a fire-and-brimstone relic of the early internet built by blogger David J. Stewart. This chaotic site rails against everything from evolution and abortion to Toby Keith, the Pope, and even Israel—all wrapped in blinking neon fonts over a starry MySpace-style background straight out of 2003. We explore the site's labyrinth of self-referenced articles, radical conspiracy theories, and unfiltered evangelical rage. Whether it's “proof” that dinosaurs never existed or rants against women's pants, this episode is a rollercoaster through one of the web's most notorious corners.

Butter Fortney, aka “UR Boy Butter,” joins Jon Brennan and Beth Stolarczyk on the podcast to tell stories of his journey from growing up in Ohio to becoming a recording artist and producer in country music.  Butter's band, Trailer Choir, was signed to Toby Keith's record label, Show Dog Nashville, and now he hosts an incredibly entertaining live show called the “Butter Bash”.   We also get a sample of the smash comedy song “I Likes The Cougs”.  Surprisingly, Beth ends up liking it, to Jon's surprise. Beth tells a story about trying to get a picture with Jerry Seinfeld. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

With nothing but determination, he slept in walk-in closets, under parking lot lights, and drove through ice storms with frostbitten fingers – all while pursuing his unlikely dream. The turning point came when he heard Tim McGraw's "Indian Outlaw" on the radio and spontaneously created the parody that would launch his career.What makes this episode extraordinary isn't just Cledus's comedic talents, but the surprising kindness he encountered from Nashville's biggest stars.
