Podcast Description
Shouts From The Lawn is a podcast by Oregon resident Jim Mercurio. This writer and blabbermouth records a show from his home; interviewing guests you've never heard about topics everyone is familiar with. It is a comical, opinionated and homegrown show from an erratic, fried-chicken obsessed trivia geek who is also the father of three. If you enjoy rants from the disjointed middle class and deep, rich, buttery sarcasm...Jim's your guy.
