Episode 224: Joshua Hedley

from Vinyl Emergency · host Jim Hanke; Joshua Hedley; New West Records

He may have only turned 40 this year, but Joshua Hedley figures he's already been gigging for 75% of his life. Infatuated with the fiddle and western swing from an early age, he began performing steadily at 12 and had released his first album by 15, before moving from Florida to Nashville, playing almost 60 hours a week up and down Lower Broadway. Ahead of the late-October release of All Hat -- his third LP, courtesy of New West Records -- Joshua chats today about failing in public, the similarities between pro wrestling and Music City's cutthroat country-western food chain, and why he's finally not nervous to put an album out. Pre-order All Hat from JoshuaHedley.com, and keep up with his weekly gigs in and around Nashville via @joshuahedley on Instagram.

You read the news, you listen to the analysis, you've got the outrage. What you don't have is a plan.The Most Important Question — 6x Webby-nominated, 2x Signal Award-nominated — is a weekly conversation with one person who stopped asking "what can I do?" and went and found out. Not pundits. Not commentators. The scientists, doctors, nurses, journalists, farmers, activists, and policymakers who are doing the actual work on the frontlines of climate, public health, democracy, AI, food, water, medicine, and justice.Host Quinn Emmett goes deep with each of them — the infectious disease doctor building new outbreak surveillance tools, the investigative journalist who traced how forever chemicals got into 97% of our blood, the economist building emergency lifeboats for foreign aid that got axed overnight, one of the greatest writers alive reckoning with the history we were never taught — and every conversation ends with something nobody else gives Explicit Resus Tonight - Critical Care and Emergency Nursing Resus Tonight The Resus Tonight team is curious to learn how critical care & emergency nursing can be better. The team translates research into everyday clinical practice, challenge the sacred cows of nursing and occasionally rant.
