Thanks to everyone for listening to our podcast yesterday! 😉 We’ve had the best overnight streams so far and are back trending! 😂

‼️⚡️EPISODE 6⚡️‼️
Well, on the back of numerous comments about our previous podcasts we are releasing what could be the most controversial yet!
YEP, that's right, even more than episode 3 which today seems to have created quite a storm!
We would both like to say the following...
"We have not set out to upset or offend anyone, we believe that the scene in the UK needs to be taken more seriously and know we are only saying what many have said privately or think themselves. We have thought long and hard about this episode but decided that if everyone just continues to ignore certain aspects then the scene will never change. We both believe passionately in country music in the UK and only want to highlight how the bar needs to be raised. As always, comments via email to [email protected]
We will mention all comments received (email only) in the future podcast/s.
