He does a good job and I’ll watch the next one!
You, as a host, are wonderful. I hope it's going really well for you. You must be too busy to fart.

Within days of seeing the show, I made reservations to dine there with my daughters on their birthday. We explored the oasis, the gardens, the lovely grounds and then dined like queens! It was a wonderful experience and....I'm going back SOON!
Season 3: Southwest Stories with the Two Steves
Become a Patron of Southwest Stories with the Two Steves!
Southwest Stories returns for Season 3 - with two co-hosts - journalist/historian/musician Steve Brown, and Native artist/musician Steve Rushingwind.
Steve Brown is the show's creator, writer, co-host, and executive producer. Steve Rushingwind is a three-time NAMMY (Native American Music Awards) winning Native flute recording artist and performer, leader of Steve Rushingwind and The Native Groove (with co-host Steve Brown on drums).
The two Steves have worked together since Season 1 when they performed together in the beautiful Indian Canyons of the Agua Caliente Band of Cahuilla Indians for an episode about the Agua Caliente. Steve (Rushingwind) was the writer and performer of the Southwest Stories theme song for both Season 1 & 2. In Season 2, Steve (Rushingwind) returned as a guest for the final episode, Where the Old West Met the New.
Our two Steves have performed together at the Joshua Tree Astronomy Arts Theater, in Indian Canyons, and most recently at Marta Becket's legendary Amargosa Opera House, in Death Valley Junction. After a fun weekend touring around the Death Valley region with The Native Groove, the two Steves decided it was time for more adventures together around the Southwest.
With Steve Rushingwind, Southwest Stories adds a Native perspective, and more art and music, deepening our experiences and journeys throughout the Southwest.
