This week's guest is a good ol' country boy who knows his way around a Deere, loves the smell of diesel in the morning, and strikes fear in the hearts of ducks everywhere: SEAN STEMALY
ERNEST and Sean talk about what it was like to move to Nashville from Southern Indiana, how Sean grew up driving tractors, and why Sean's history of building some very impressive engines is going to come in handy when Ern lets Sean do some work on his new truck. Then, they discuss who keeps a fire lit under their asses when it comes to songwriting, how social media has changed the music industry as a whole, and the two talk about their favorite Nashville bars. Finally, while he pours some refills on their tequila, Ern puts Sean's duck hunting knowledge to the test with a little pop quiz.
