A simple question sets the tone: what are you thankful for? We lean into the heart of Thanksgiving with real talk about gratitude, grief, and the quiet kind of joy that shows up even when life feels thin. From travel prayers to table rituals, we trace the holiday’s roots across cultures and the way harvest traditions still whisper to us now. Faith makes an appearance, not as a lecture, but as an honest thanks to the Creator and an open invitation to anyone who needs a little hope this week.

Then we turn the dial to the modern frontier: an AI country act called Breaking Rust climbing a digital chart. We break down the song’s polish and the uncanny gap where breath should be, asking whether music needs human imperfection to feel true. Is chart success a mirror or smoke? Are follower counts inflated or earned? You’ll hear a candid debate that balances curiosity with skepticism, and a clear call for your take. If you’ve listened to Walk My Walk, we want to know what you hear—and what you don’t.

Between the moments of reflection and the AI debate, we roll up our sleeves in the studio: rescuing old hardware with Linux Lite and Mint, running Umbrel for a home server, and stress-testing a Raspberry Pi for recording. It’s a small stand for openness, tinkering, and making the most of what you have, rooted in the same value for value ethos that keeps our show free and listener-powered. If you need a warm voice for the drive or a nudge to name your blessings, pull up a chair.

If this resonates, share it with a friend, subscribe for more, and drop us a note with your thoughts on AI in music and what you’re thankful for. Your voice shapes where we go next.
