Dagnut Dalrymple’s Culture War Country

Two reactionary country songs got a lot of coverage this summer and I’m sure the mockery (including this cartoon) will only strengthen their victim complex. Until they’re in prison being sung to by the ghost of Johnny Cash, they’ll be just fine.

Modern country has gotten so formulaic, all the creative voices in it strain to call it something else like Americana, outlaw, folk, or as call ’em all, “the good kind.”

I listened to a lot of Willie Nelson albums while drawing this, and it’s a toss up between “Teatro” and “Red Headed Stranger” for my favorites.

Martin Scorsese Roasts Your Fandom

I like a lot of dumb pop culture. We unwind (My wife from her real job, me from, uh, this.) at our house by watching 90 Day Fiance and Below Deck. I’m not going to cry if a great director points out that they’re not prestige television.
