In the Blind Podcast is a raw artist to artist country music podcast hosted by Love and Theft and filmed inside Riley Green’s Duck Blind in midtown Nashville. Eric and Stephen sit down with the people they actually want to talk to and leave the polish at the door. Careers, family, the road, fishing, mental health, and the stuff that never makes the press release. Episode 77 welcomes rising Alabama born Nashville based country artist Clay Barker, the independent voice behind tracks like I Can’t Be in Love With You, Drinkin’ Tonight, and Whiskey on Mine who is pulling early 2000s country into a new generation.

Clay grew up in Alexander City, cut his teeth around Auburn and the Southeast bar circuit, and now lives the grind of vans, late nights, and writing rooms. In this one they cover small town Alabama, fraternity parties that turned into songs, nights on the water, the reality of the road, new music, what growth actually looks like when nobody hands it to you, the goals he is chasing next, and the mental health side of staying in it when the wins feel slow. Unfiltered, no script, just three country music singers in a duck blind.

Join hosts Eric Gunderson and Stephen Barker Liles (Country Duo Love And Theft) for Episode 76 of "In The Blind." This week rising country artist Colin Lynch sits down for an honest conversation covering his Jersey Shore roots, balancing college with a fast-rising music career, the song that blew up, writing from real places like Sea Isle City, hitting the road, and how quickly everything has changed.

Colin Lynch is a Pennsylvania-raised, Sea Isle City-summered songwriter whose music sits somewhere between Zach Bryan storytelling and Springsteen-style Americana. After getting discovered on TikTok, he broke through with “4th of July Darlin’,” followed it with singles like “Mary Jane” and “Aida’s Smile,” and dropped the EP Miracles Off Exit 17. He’s been playing festivals, opening bigger rooms, and building a catalog that already feels lived-in.
