The Outlaw Spirit of Country Music ft. Elizabeth Cook | Conversate with Killer Mike ep. 50

from Conversate with Killer Mike · host Killer Mike

What do outlaw country music, working class America, faith, family, and forgotten history have in common? Singer, songwriter, and SiriusXM Outlaw Country host Elizabeth Cook joins Killer Mike, Bear, and Moetown Lee for a wide ranging conversation about growing up in rural Florida, building a career outside Nashville's system, and telling stories that history often overlooks. Elizabeth shares the inspiration behind her new album Great Television and the story of the women who died in the 1971 Thiokol plant explosion in Woodbine, Georgia, a tragedy that changed countless lives but remains largely unknown today. The conversation explores country music legends like Kris Kristofferson, Johnny Cash, and Waylon Jennings, the realities of poverty in the South, church culture, songwriting, addiction, recovery, independence, and what it means to stay true to yourself in an industry built on conformity. Elizabeth also discusses her documentary The Easy Kind, life on the road, and why some of the most important stories come from people the world has forgotten. Whether you're a fan of country music, Southern culture, American history, or great storytelling, this is a conversation about resilience, authenticity, and the people who keep going when nobody is watching.
