My friend Jack Brewster and I decided to do our annual Best TV episode early this year to beat the rush of the holidays. In some ways it felt like an off year in TV, but in others maybe I just didn’t have AppleTV+. I would like to offer an early apology for my whacked out list. Haha I decided to rank shows by what I thought about the most and not n…

Hey everyone! I dusted off the trusty old podcast to share a LONG conversation with my Mossy Stones bandmate Joshua Irwin about the making of our recent 2nd album Crafted Out of Paperclips. We put it together despite a good deal of obstacles, including Josh becoming a father for the third time a couple weeks after the album came out. One could say …

It's been busy where I am but I've been wanting to do a podcast about my new book, Wish It Were Sunday. In this episode I talk about the story and how it came to be for about twenty minutes, then read the first episode (28 pages) to give a little teaser.Jeff Grant's Evolving Podcast is available on SoundCloud, Apple Podcasts, Stitcher & Google Play…

Over Thanksgiving break my niece Kenzie came back on the podcast for the 3rd time (see also: episodes 23 & 83). This was an unplanned and unfocused conversation but we hit many important topics including high school, TikTok, ASMR, Magic 8 Balls, Gilmore Girls, and so much more. And keep your ears peeled for a surprise guest no one will see coming!J…

Congratulations! Christmas has come early. Clear your schedule, dump your significant other, and listen to my friend Jack and I once again slowly and methodically go through our top 10 TV shows of the year. How many will end up on both of our lists? Is there any hope for Suits? Who would win in a fight between Succession and The Bear? And most impo…

My friend Jack and I got together to record this year's Top 10 TV Shows episode (coming later this week) and thought it'd be fun to quickly run through some movies we also enjoyed before recording that one. Think of this as a bonus appetizer episode before the main course. Jeff Grant's Evolving Podcast is available on SoundCloud, Apple Podcasts, St…

I recently started a new songwriting project/band with my friend Joshua Irwin (Mossy Stones) and we just put out our first 10-song album, Luzita (NOW STREAMING EVERYWHERE). In this episode we dove DEEP into the writing and recording of the album during my recent week-long visit to where he lives in Eureka Springs, Arkansas. The original plan was to…

I just put out my newest book, The Leg End, and thought it might be fun to read the first section of the story to give people a taste of what to expect. I don't think I've ever done anything quite like this on the podcast before. The book is available on Amazon. You may have to search "the leg end jeff grant". It will correct you, thinking you mean…

I got together again with my friend Jack Brewster this week to go through our top 10 TV shows of the year. You're excited about that, right? Thanks. This was a LONG episode with a few hiccups along the way but we made it! Please clap for us. Happy holidays, everyone!What were YOUR favorite shows this year? There sure were a lot of great things to w…

To celebrate the end of one of our favorite shows, my friend Jack & I reconvened to give our final thoughts on Better Call Saul. (for more listen to our episode from before the final season). Here are the segments if you'd like to skip around:00:00 - Intro/Other Things We've Been Watching19:25 - Series Finale Discussion41:15 - Season 6 as a Whole1:…

I wrote a book! It's called Follower Bot(thanks, I'm excited). I know people probably have questions and I conveniently have a podcast so I thought I'd try to answer some. Right now the book is only available digitally on Amazon. That's discussed in the podcast. If you have any MORE questions please ask me somewhere on the internet and hopefully I …

Better Call Saul is FINALLY coming back for its 6th & final season & it's a HUGE deal. My friend Jack & I wanted to celebrate the event by chatting (gushing) all about it. This episode is divided into 3 sections. In the first we talked about some shows we've been enjoying recently. Then we switched into general non-spoiler thoughts about Better Cal…

My 13 year-old niece has taken over my podcast today! It's now called Klassy Konversations with Kenzie (do NOT abbreviate that). My nephew Klaytin & I joined her. Warning: this is a WILD episode. All I can say is PLEASE LIKE AND SUBSCRIBE!!Jeff Grant's Evolving Podcast is available on SoundCloud, Apple Podcasts, Stitcher & Google Play Music. Thanks…

On this week's podcast I got together with an old friend of mine from elementary school, Jack Brewster, to go through our top 10 TV shows of 2021. It's been a crazy year and it was fun to celebrate our favorites and share some the other had never heard of. We discussed around 20 shows here, in case you're looking for recommendations (though I imagi…

IT IS DONE. In the final episode of the Western Trip Series my dad & I made it back home after a few quiet traveling days highlighted by catching the new James Bond movie in a small town theater in Wyoming & some last-minute karaoke in Pueblo, Colorado. Afterwards we gave some final thoughts on the trip as a whole. Thank you to anyone who followed …

After leaving California, we headed north to Portland & Seattle before traveling east to Coeur d'Alene, Idaho, Bozeman, Montana, then a couple rainy days driving 100s of miles in gigantic & beautiful Yellowstone National Park. We had a lot to cover in this episode, from bookstores to rock star memorials to airbnbs to bison & how geysers work, so bu…

In the 4th episode of the series we make it to San Francisco for a fun, thigh-destroying day in the city, followed by the beautiful Muir Woods & almost running out of gas on the Pacific Coast Highway before being warmly welcomed to Crescent City by some homeless Doobie Brothers. TTYL, California!Jeff Grant's Evolving Podcast is available on SoundCl…

In the most scatterbrained episode of the podcast so far (which is saying a lot) our travelers pinball through Los Angeles, Hollywood, Santa Monica & up the west coast overcoming audio issues galore (this one was miraculously stitched together from 8 separate bits because the recorder on my phone kept cutting out). Hollywood was a fun, special but …

This 2nd episode of our Western Trip Series is all about Arizona. After Albuquerque we spent a couple nights in Sedona before heading to the Grand Canyon for our first campout of the trip. Find out how it went & if we decided campout again or not!Audio warning: episodes 2-5 were recorded in the truck while we were driving so they're VERY noisy but …

I recently went on a 3 & a half-week trip out west with my dad. Along the way we recorded SIX podcast episodes to help chronicle what we did. In this first episode, recorded in our hotel room, we cover the first 5 or so days from Fort Worth, Texas to Albuquerque, New Mexico. Most of this episode is about going around to different locations from the…

After the previous episode my friend Jared & I realized we both had a lot to say on the topic of writing & decided to meet up again for a more focused conversation about it. Things discussed: what drew us to writing in the first place, what we write about now, writing in coffee shops, typing vs. handwriting, being introverts, what being a successfu…

I've known Jared Brown and Brandon Cowan my whole life. We met up the other day & I talked them into coming on the podcast! We sat on the back patio, smoked pipes, sipped bourbon, talked about old memories, growing up in the same church & how things have changed and/or stayed the same. It was a nice, chill, goofy (and FOCUSED) conversation... until…

This one is special. My friend Brian Carter returned to the podcast for the 5th time for an IN PERSON conversation in his living room in East Nashville, Tennessee. This is the first episode of this podcast NOT recorded in Texas and the first with another person in way too long. Topics include: the village nature of Nashville, Croc life, how to prop…

Somehow I was able to see all 8 movies nominated for Best Picture at the Oscars this year so I wanted to rank them on the podcast. That's what this is. Thanks for listening.Jeff Grant's Evolving Podcast is available on SoundCloud, iTunes, Stitcher, Spotify and Google Play Music.Por Jeff Grant

I quit my job recently and wanted to do a quick episode about it. Mostly I get into some plans I have, like a trip to Nashville and attempting to write a book. (Not sure if that'll work, but...) I'm hoping I can get more podcasts recorded and released and get to some things I haven't been able to lately. Yep. Thanks for listening.Jeff Grant's Evolv…

On today's episode I played through acoustic versions of the songs from my new album Tokyo 2020. The songs were all written on acoustic guitar before I changed how they sound for the album. I wanted to talk a little about the songs & see if I could play them live again, after mostly just hearing them on my computer for the last year. Thanks for lis…

My new album, Tokyo 2020, is available in Spotify and Apple Music and a few other places now. Link: https://distrokid.com/hyperfollow/jeffgrant/tokyo-2020I wanted to do a last episode in my "Making an Album" series to talk about finishing it and getting it out. This has been a rough time in my life but this is something I've been working on and I r…

On today's episode I went through my personal top 10 favorite "shows" I watched this year. There are SO many things to see and I'm sure you have 10 totally different things you enjoyed more. These were just the 10 that clicked with me. I hope everyone is having a great holiday season. Also, happy New Year to you and your people! Thanks for listenin…

I went to my shrunken 2020 Thanksgiving yesterday & something strange happened: I struck up a nearly 4-hour conversation about K-pop with my cousin Savanna (21, from episodes 14 & 41)and my cousin Kellie's 13 year-old daughter Kimberly, who seems to know EVERYTHING about K-pop. At a certain point I asked them if I could record the conversation for …

I had a day off from work the other day & wasn't sure what to do. Has that ever happened to you? Did I go see The Nightmare Before Christmas? Did I say anything about Wes Anderson? And more importantly, did I buy any pants? You'll have to listen to find out! & if you keep going you may eventually hear a cover of a Gin Blossoms song. Get ready for a…

I had an idea to do an episode where I write down 10 questions about creativity & just answer them. I thought it'd be a fun semi-structured way to do an episode. Like many recent episodes this one was recorded on my phone in my car while parked in a parking lot BUT this time I was in a movie theater parking lot, which was an incredibly exciting cha…

In today's "podcast in a car" episode I visit 2 different bookstores and share about what I found, and what I learned... about myself.

I had a day off last week & decided to continue my "make up a podcast while recording it" trip I guess I'm on at the moment. I ended up at a coffee shop, then needed to find a mailbox & THEN decided to burn it all down & drive to a different Walmart than usual. So... how did it go? You'll have to listen to find out.Jeff Grant's Evolving Podcast is …

I enjoyed doing the previous episode without a plan and wanted to try a long one where I just turn on the microphone and see what happens. I have a fear of being a redundant bore, so this is how I faced that. What happens if you just keep talking? What will come out? Hmm... I think I just had a lot on my mind and needed to talk. This episode has a …

I'm needing to take a break from the album I've been working on because there are a few too many other things vying for my time & attention at the moment. I was disappointed I wouldn't have anything to talk about on a new Making an Album episode but then I remembered that taking a break is PART of the process. So yeah. Ima set this thing aside for …

Can you believe it? I've been working on my album so much I've forgotten to make a new episode talking *about* working on it in around 2 months! I do consider the interview I did with my friend Josh Irwin about songwriting a part of this series though, so listen to that one if you haven't had the chance to. Today I wanted to do a quick update about…

I've been in #songwritingmode for a little while & wanted to talk about it on the podcast but not just do another one by myself, so I got my good friend & fellow songwriter Josh Irwin (from episode 34) to come back on the show so we could go deep & nerdy about how we make up songs. We've both been doing this over 20 years (yikes!) so we definitely …

My friend Brian Carter called into the podcast for a 4th time this week. Any episode with Brian a good time. The conversation rambled through several topics including all this COVID-19 junk, the recent tornado in Nashville, what Brian (a professional chef) gets at the grocery store (the answer might surprise you)and Bob Dylan's new song (which I st…

Not even COVID-19 could stop this slow bullet train of podcast episodes describing the process of one man trying to make an album! No way! In this 3rd episode of the series, I (Jeff) discuss how the coronavirus has changed my day to day life (spoiler: not a whole lot). Then I move on to discuss the state of the album at this point. YEA!Hope everyon…

Surprise! The podcast is back today to help you celebrate the holiday season. I played through some Christmas songs from Jeff Grant's Evolving Christmas Album (which is available on most streaming services). I also did 1 that's not on it. Hope you enjoy!BTW, we have merch now. You can find shirts, mugs, stickers and the like here: https://teespring…

My sister Brittany Garmon has had a busy year with quite a few changes. I wanted to have her on so she could talk about what it was like to lose 80 pounds and then wrap up her time as an elementary math teacher to become a health coach (yes, I said changes). It's been fun to watch her grow so much recently and come out of her shell in a lot of unex…

I'm about to hit episode 50 and I have a special guest and I wanted to hurry up and get to it so I decided to do a quick solo episode to fill a spot (you can do this when you have your own podcast that has zero rules). You can skip this one if you want, it ain't no thang. I gave a quick update on the podcast and shouted out a couple people who supp…

To celebrate this week's release of the Switch remake of The Legend Zelda: Link's Awakening, my friend Britt Reginelli and I got on the phone to share our personal top 5 favorite Zelda games. It was a ton of fun to get REAL nerdy for this episode(this one required decades of miserable research, I'm telling ya'). 🤓What is YOUR favorite Zelda game?Ar…

My friend Brick (from episode 42 about Long Distance Romance) returned to the podcast this week to tell me about his job as an EMT. We discussed how he got into the profession, what a normal day looks like and how doing what he does gives him a sixth sense when he's off the clock.Jeff Grant's Evolving Podcast is available on SoundCloud, iTunes, Sti…

This past Monday night, with a busy few days ahead of me, I realized I didn't have time to record a podcast for this week. Then I got an idea to see what would happen if I got onto a discord voice party and invited whoever wanted to join in for some conversational chaos. I went in not sure who the guests would be or what we would talk about (or if …
