Scott Scovill - Part 1: Overcoming Trauma, Tenacity & Self Help

Dave Brown - Part 2: Hitchhiking, Minor Miracles & Growing a Garden

Before Dave Brown became the co-owner of The Basement, The Basement East and Lowbar, he was just a guy who wisely decided to drop out of college and hitchhike across the country. He had just lost a dear friend in a horrific tragedy and was working through his grief, trying to make a living and casually figuring out the meaning of life along the way. Hear him talk about spotting small miracles in the moment, dumpster diving, and being stung by a scorpion in the second half of his sit-down with us.

Dave Brown - Part 1: Spotting Talent & Co-Owning The Basement, Basement East & Low Bar Nashville

Like a lot of people in Nashville, Dave Brown is a songwriter and musician. Like exactly one other person in Nashville, he's the proud (and humble) co-owner of the legendary The Basement, plus The Basement East and Low Bar Nashville. Even though he's not the kinda dude who would take credit in this way, the former is a space that has helped launch musical magnificence: St. Paul and the Broken Bones, Maren Morris, Kacey Musgraves and Sturgill Simpson, just to name a few. His Part 1 details his journey into becoming a business guy. But his Part 2? That one is all about his very unbusiness-like freewheeling escapades hitchhiking across the country after an early existential crisis.

Scott Scovill - Part 2: Facing Fear, Meeting Yourself & Psychedelic Therapy

Scott is here on a mission. He's ready to be the latest stranger to sit with us and he's willing to get extra vulnerable. He's just finished a book to help people get out of their own way and get busy pursuing their dreams. He cringes when he calls the book self-help, but he glows when he shares that he's gotten astronauts, famous artists and professional athletes to contribute their stories on its pages. He talks about navigating his relationship with a father who was mentally ill, we make some fart jokes and we cry a little too.
