On this episode, we celebrate Kris Kristofferson’s birthday earlier this week. We’ve got new music from the Last Revel, Peter Mayer, Drew Holcomb and the Neighbors and Marty Stuart. And we’ll play a set of music for Pride Week — songs from Mary Gauthier, her partner Jaimee Harris, and Joe Troop too.
