Tim Pop Live Comes to SCM Live!
I am very excited to announce that the podcast legend by the name of Tim Pop is moving his “Rebel Rouser” country music podcast to SCM LIVE!
Rebel Rouser is an hour-long weekly podcast that mixes old-school, classic country music with the new school underground stuff. It may be new to you and SCM LIVE, but Tim Pop is already done over 60 episodes of Rebel Rouser over on the Real Punk Radio network. The show will air Thursday nights at 9 PM Eastern, 8 Central, and will be preceded by Reverend Nix’s “Mojo Medicine Show”, which has been moved from Fridays to Thursdays, starting at 8 Eastern, 7 Central.
Reverend Nix already sets the table on Wednesdays for the flagship of SCM LIVE, Outlaw Radio Chicago, so now there will be two nights a week where you can listen to great music, and if want, hang out in the chat room and enjoy the camaraderie that has made Saving Country Music one of the strongest online communities country music can boast.
I have known Tim Pop, and have been listening to his podcasts for over three years. I first heard about his main podcast “Tim Pop Live” from Rachel Brooke through MySpace. Tim Pop is based in Detroit, and is good friends with Rachel & Junk (aka Brooks Robbins) (who have a new side project called “Modern Mal”)Â The first time I listened to Tim Pop Live was less than two weeks after I had started Free Hank III, the organization that eventually morphed into Saving Country Music, and Tim Pop, who didn’t know me from Adam, was talking about it on his podcast. That is when I knew what the power of community and collaboration could do.
Y’all please stop by on Thursday’s if you can, listen a little, hang out in the chat room for a bit. And if Thursday’s are bad for you, or you want to check out what kind of chops Tim Pop has, you can check out previous episodes of Rebel Rouser or Tim Pop Live at www.timpoplive.com.
And don’t forget that THIS SATURDAY Lowebow Fest from Florida will be broadcast on SCM LIVE as well!
Tim Pop is also a lead guitar player. Here he is shredding for the band Switchblade Justice!

Tim’s a good man, and a Detroit legend. But, then, doesn’t most good things have some sorta root in Detroit??
Totally biased opinion.

Really excited to have a guy that is right there to cover the burgeoning independent country scene in Detroit and the greater Michigan and Upper Midwest area, and someone who has been around a long time and is so widely respected.

Exciting news! I doubt I’ll make it this Thursday (being St. Patrick’s Day and all), but I’m looking forward to starting my weekend off with Nix and Tim Pop. Two nights in a row of podcasts!

First,long ago, I met Rachel and we started kicking a can around together. Shortly after that her and I met Tim at the Woodward Avenue Brewery and we became an instant family! Timpop is literally like a brother to me even though he’s a city slicker. Its cool that he has a home here at SCM, he is a great guy, very talented and he makes shepard pie.Thanks for the love triggerman and great article.

Thank ya Jeremy …IceCold..HAHA..

this only benefits people with internet connections, and I don’t have one at home so I could careless about this as I don’t have access to it, and I don’t have time to spend in a library listening either. A waste of time if you ask me.
…that sound about right Denise? or does that opinion sound pretty short sided?
March 15, 2011 @ 1:05 pm
what is this??
i don’t know what this is about…you don’t wanna listen, then don’t.
talk crazy when you’re not talkin about friends of mine who do nice things for other people to no benefit of their own.
you got some kinda war goin on, leave it out of a discussion that has no negative areas.
March 15, 2011 @ 1:13 pm
Jeremy, this has nothing to do with Tim Pop or the radio shows so I probably shouldn’t have commented as I did, but my statement was tongue and cheek based on similar type comments made in other blogs which evoked a response from me.
I completely apologize for upsetting you or anyone that reads it and doesn’t know what it stems from and that it is a little shot at others.
I just couldn’t help myself, and your reaction (albeit not part of the bit) speaks directly to what happens when rediculous statements are made. You should stick up and call people out.
I apologize, and digress it was a poorly timed/executed example of things.
I will leave it at that and Trig you can delete/dump it if you want.

IceCold,
Are you still fucking here?
The only reason I am leaving this comment up is because it is the perfect example of what I have warned you about many times, and I will not warn you about again. DO NOT HARASS MY READERS, OR I WILL DELETE YOUR COMMENTS, STARTING NOW!
Stay on topic, OR GO THE FUCK AWAY !!!!
March 15, 2011 @ 2:12 pm
I was on topic. I made just as random and rediculous a comment as others have on other blogs that fire a few of us up.
Am I not one of your readers and do I not get harrassed too? Yet I am told to fuck off and leave? Gladly.

Tim Welcome! Cant wait to waste time with you my man! Welcome Welcome Welcome!
March 15, 2011 @ 1:38 pm

March 15, 2011 @ 2:57 pm
Glad to have you here man! I will do my best to hear the debut show on SCM!
March 15, 2011 @ 3:11 pm
Unfortunately Thursdays are bad for me (as is anything but Tuesday night, pretty much). I’ll check it out though when I have the time.
March 15, 2011 @ 3:51 pm
You can always check him out 24 hours a day at http://www.timpoplive.com

Whew. Happy for the link as trying to catch anything live is difficult. I’m still archiving IBWIP!

“someone who has been around a long time and is so widely respected.”
that about covers it…..and it’s good news!
Tim Pop was one of my first MySpace friends too.
March 15, 2011 @ 4:19 pm
Sweet… I may even have it playing for my St. Pat’s party Thursday!
March 15, 2011 @ 5:24 pm
Right on! TimPop was the first podcast I ever listened to after getting on Myspace. Used to really enjoy listening . . . would write with Tim’s shows on and really felt a good groove. Glad to see he’s still doing his thing!
March 16, 2011 @ 6:04 am

I am sorry I’ll be missing the first show. But St. Patrick’s Day is only once a year, and hopefully I’ll be out on the street corner with my guitar. Can’t think why I’d miss next week though. Thursday night is perfect for this for me!
