Songs & Stories Podcast
All we ever do is make music, talk shit, and do fun things that lead to good stories. That's what the Emery culture is about. We love telling you band stories and even more, we love convincing your favorite artists to tell their stories... even the ones they probably shouldn't.
Join us each week to hear amazing stories from the road, Song Rescue (where we roast and improve listeners songs), the Damn News, and more!
This podcast and our music is supported and funded directly by Emeryland. Join us at emerymusic.com

#476 Creating Rambo, with Author David Morrell
David Morrell is the author of the book "First Blood," which became one of our favorite movies ever, Rambo. He tells us in what ways they changed the dynamics the book brought out in generational relationships and the effects of war before PTSD was a talked-about phenomenon. He's been out there doing things his own way for so many more years than us, and encouraged us way more than just talking about some books he wrote.
