Dave and Matt welcome the incredible Ryan Montbleau to the pod. Ryan and Matt grew up together in the great city of Peabody, Massachusetts. Ryan is a singer, songwriter, and an all-around incredible musician. His latest album, "Wood, Fire, Water, and Air" is not only great music but also does a fantastic job of using an Oxford comma in its name.
Matt and Dave talk with Ryan about his musical journey, some of the great venues he's played at, life on the road, putting down roots, how to make social media work, and how he's thus far not taken advantage of the wide-open opportunity to become America's #1 Bris Band. We even got a very special surprise drop-in from a previous pod guest.

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
