Pluck of the Draw
Show notes
It's a solo flight for Mark Houston this Juneteenth, and he spends the afternoon pulling one thread he's never pulled before. Turns out almost every song on the radio, from Taylor Swift to your favorite country tune, traces back to one day in Galveston, Texas. The banjo on your front porch playlist took a much longer trip than you'd think. Then we get into Father's Day, a holiday that started with a coal mine disaster and almost didn't survive because a circus act and some fireworks stole its thunder. Crank something you love this weekend and find out where it really came from.
