Weight just a minute! It’s another episode of THE STORY SONG PODCAST! Join your hosts as they review the 1968 classic “The Weight” by influential rock band, The Band.

So feed Jack the dog (when you can), catch a cannonball, and come on let’s go downtown on this episode of THE STORY SONG PODCAST. Say hey to Fanny for us.
