2026 is the new 2016, Craig's Log and Purple Pen

from Southern Hang · host Southern Hang Studios

Southern Hang is back with its hand on the pulse of social media trends… or so we’d like to believe. This episode takes a trip back to 2016 as we talk through what we were up to at the time — the concerts and sporting events we hit, and the music and TV that defined the year. Craig pulls out his log… errr… journal to review ticket stubs from the launch of the Lamar Jackson Heisman campaign against Florida State. We also revisit the Chris Stapleton takeover and how it helped open the door for artists like Jason Isbell, Tyler Childers, and Sturgill Simpson to break through to a wider audience. We close things out with a #JaamOfTheWeek from 2016, leaning fully itno the Wu Tang name generator roots of the artist. Enjoy the stroll through 2016 with the Southern Hang fellas.

Originated by critic Nate Chinen and broadcaster Greg Bryant, the show now convenes Chinen and Josh Jackson twice a month for perceptive variations on a theme, and their related interview with a special guest. Just like a hang at the end of the gig, in the back of the club, it’s direct, unfiltered and illuminating, revealing the music and its culture in a deeper light. 50ish & Fab: The Hot Flash Report KC Sonshine - Your Southern Sweet Tea with a Splash of BROOKLYN!
