Last week Amy Grant unexpectedly released a single called The 6th of January (Yasgar's Farm).

I think you know what Katie and Matt think about it already but just in case here's our reactions to it!

On January 14th, 1986 Rich Mullins released his debut solo record. We originally considered doing an episode on that album but we since neither of us had an emotional attachment to Mullins music, instead Matt did a little research on this iconic musician to teach Katie about his early years, his politics at the time and the circumstances of his untimely passing. After this episode we are beyond prepared to fully dive into his catalogue in the future!
