God's Country

“God’s Country” with The Brothers Hunt (brothers Dan and Reid Isbell) is a rollicking weekly podcast that sits at the intersection of country music and the great outdoors.

Nashville songwriters by profession who spent their childhoods getting muddy in the wilds of Tennessee, Dan and Reid draw on their own passion for hunting and fishing to lead a thought-provoking and fun exploration of the fundamental role of outdoor living in country music.
