The One About Jason Aldean (175)

<p>A &quot;Mars on Life&quot; first, we talk about country music. Jason Aldean released a music video to accompany his two-month-old song, and it&#39;s the kind of song Matt and Ryan recognize growing up in Santa Clarita. Drew broaches the subject within the greater context of a sectional crisis within the country music world, how that reflects city life in the South and the country as a while, as well as conservative media&#39;s attempt at victimization (perhaps &quot;The Sound of Freedom&quot; fits in this category too).</p> <p>Finally, we share an update on one of our intrepid cohosts as we enter the final 25 episodes of the season, closing in on Episode 200.</p> <p>To check out the New Yorker article we talk about, it&#39;s well worth reading — here&#39;s the link: <a href="https://www.newyorker.com/magazine/2023/07/24/country-musics-culture-wars-and-the-remaking-of-nashville">https://www.newyorker.com/magazine/2023/07/24/country-musics-culture-wars-and-the-remaking-of-nashville</a></p> <p>Social media:</p> <p>Mars on Life: @marsonlifeshow on Twitter and Instagram</p> <p>Ryan Mancini: @mancinira (Twitter) and @manciniryan (Instagram)</p> <p>Andrew Martinez: @andrewomartinez (Twitter)</p> <p>Matt Fernandez: @matt_fern (Twitter) and @thewoodseyninja (Instagram)</p> <p>Artwork by Zachary Erberich (@zacharyerberichart)</p> <p>&quot;Space X-plorers&quot; Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com)<br>Licensed under Creative Commons: By Attribution 4.0 License<br>http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/</p> <p>&quot;Iron Bacon&quot; Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com)<br>Licensed under Creative Commons: By Attribution 4.0 License<br>http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/</p> --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/mars-on-life-show/message Support this podcast: <a href="https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/mars-on-life-show/support" rel="payment">https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/mars-on-life-show/support</a>
