Ya Good?

Ah, f*ck! We didn't have a guest for this week, so we're shootin' the shit about other stuff. This episode would make a sailor proud.

Our first musician podcast of 2020, and this one's special! Our old friend James Hatem came up from Nashville to share his story with us, and boy is it wild. He plays two original songs for us, "Don't Call Me Crazy" and "Harriett!"

Happy New Year! For our first episode of 2020, we review "The Rise of Skywalker," and also do a healthy dose of reviewing of the year 2019 in general! If you haven't seen the movie yet, listen at your own risk!

Merry Christmas and a happy New Year from your pals over at Ya Good! We've got games, gifts, jams, and answers to life's burning questions.. such as, why does Dylan have a box on his head? We've got special guests The Knotty G's back in the house to get this party started, and boy do we party like it's going out of style!
