On Episode 191, I'm joined by country songwriter Elijah Ocean. Today--Friday, August 13--Ocean released his latest album, Born Blue, a collection of neo-traditional-inspired country songs that highlight the dim lights of late nights and early mornings. During this one, Ocean and I talk about writing the likes of "Thirty-Five" and "The Ice Machine," recording during the quarantine, Las Vegas shows, and our favorite '90s country artists.

This episode's presenting partner is Desert Door Texas Sotol, The Blue Light Live, and Charlie Stout Photography.
