Hey there, Campfire Circle—

This one’s special. I had the chance to sit down with Ned LeDoux for a conversation about music, family, highways, cowboy culture, and the stories that shape us. We discussed how Brother Highway was born, Ned’s years on the road, his time drumming for his Dad, Chris LeDoux, and how songs sometimes come to life in minutes when the story is true enough.

Ned also shared about working with Mac McAnally, the songs that carried over from his Dad’s notebooks, and what it’s like to build his own legacy while carrying forward a family tradition of music tied to the road.

This video episode is available only here on Patreon for the Ember tier and above. You’ll see the full conversation—laughter, memories, and some behind-the-scenes stories that didn’t make it into the audio cut.

As Ned says in Brother Highway:

“The road and I have been like brothers
From all the miles and time we’ve spent together
Yeah, we’ve seen it all
We’ve both seen changes in our time
Busted dreams and detour signs
We keep rolling on.”

That’s what this podcast is about—rolling on, sharing the real stories, and finding the beauty in the detours.

The audio version is now live on YouTube, Spotify, Apple Podcasts, and wherever you listen, but the video is exclusive to you here on Patreon.

So grab your coffee (or your three fingers whiskey 😉), pull up a chair at the fire, and enjoy this conversation with Ned LeDoux.

Keep wandering, keep chasing horizons, and keep listening to the road.
