God’s Country hosts Dan and Reid Isbell jumped in with the perfect solution when a podcast guest unfortunately had to back out at the last minute. The pair of brothers launched a Bro Pod, and teamed up with Konnor, of Phire Creek Outdoors LLC, and Michael Heeney to discuss the Country Music Association Awards.

Dan and Reid said “we had a blast recording this. It’s a lot of music, a lot of deer hunting, and wayyy to much rapping from [The Brothers Hunt],” on the recent podcast episode.

“This week's episode is brought to you by Reid and Dan LIVE from Music Row as they string together one of their funniest episodes yet. The episode covers a range of topics from the downfall of boxing to Dan's way too detailed ‘What Ya Made At’ to featuring one of their listener's stories as he just harvested his first buck ever after listening to GCP. Reid and Dan call Music Row legend Michael Heeney to give his CMA Award picks and Konnor, from Phire Creek Outdoors, to give a midwest rut report.”

Dan and Reid — who have written music for Luke CombsMiranda LambertScotty McCreeryJon PardiLainey Wilson and others — started their weekly podcast this year. Guests appearing on the show so far include HARDYDustin LynchColbie Caillat and others.

“One of our favorite things about country music has always been how intertwined it is with the outdoors,” Dan and Reid Isbell said in a statement when God’s Country launched. They hope to “bring the outdoor enthusiast or country music lover an up close and personal look into the minds of some of the best songwriters and artists of the genre — a place where they can be honest about struggles, relationships, their connection to the outdoors, the music business, family, whatever they feel comfortable talking about. We can’t wait to see where this partnership will lead and who this podcast will reach.”

The iHeartPodcasts/MeatEater show is available anywhere you listen to podcasts, including in the iHeartRadio app. Select country stations will broadcast the show between 7-11:30 p.m. local time on Sunday evenings. Find God's Country here.
