Com­ing off our adven­tures with Square Danc­ing, and Jad’s dive into the world of Dol­ly Par­ton, we look back at one our favorites. About a decade ago, we found out that Amer­i­can coun­try music is sur­pris­ing pop­u­lar in places like Zim­bab­we, Thai­land, and South Africa. Aaron Fox, an anthro­pol­o­gist of music at Colum­bia Uni­ver­si­ty, tells us that quite sim­ply, coun­try music tells a sto­ry that a lot of us get. Then, intre­pid inter­na­tion­al reporter Gre­go­ry Warn­er takes us along on one of his very first for­ays into anoth­er coun­try, where he dis­cov­ers an unex­pect­ed taste of home.
