Here's another encore episode of the “Someone You Should Podcast.” In this episode, I spoke with Darius Rucker.  Prior to going country in 2008,  he was the frontman for Hootie and the Blowfish. I caught up with Darius in late 2003 while he was promoting, their 5th album, called “Hootie and the Blowfish.”  Listen in as Darius shares a few funny moments from the tour and some info about the album.
