Dave and Matt welcome the incredible Ryan Montbleau to the pod. Ryan and Matt grew up together in the great city of Peabody, Massachusetts. Ryan is a singer, songwriter, and an all-around incredible musician. His latest album, "Wood, Fire, Water, and Air" is not only great music but also does a fantastic job of using an Oxford comma in its name.

Matt and Dave talk with Ryan about his musical journey, some of the great venues he's played at, life on the road, putting down roots, how to make social media work, and how he's thus far not taken advantage of the wide-open opportunity to become America's #1 Bris Band. We even got a very special surprise drop-in from a previous pod guest.

You can find out more about Ryan at his website: ryanmontbleau.com

Information about his upcoming tour dates, all his music, merchandise, and more can be found there.
