About this episode
To start off I don't claim to know shit about the amazing world of Country Music or am I a real authority on music in general.
About four years ago I started to feel a side of sorrow that begin to nag at me deep like. This is also about the time I heard the genius of Waylon, you see I was drinkin at the time when this man let the good lord shine through his words and lay a pretty little hand on my heart. I was sold to the power of the outlaw story and the world of honky tonkin. I got to a thinking and wanted to pay omage to a few of these Honky Tonk Heroes and the songs that can get you through those rough nights.
Again I ain't know no shit about known what makes a good country song or the roads these story's have walked. I just know that these are hyms of sorrow, hard-luck and drinkin all of which I take part.
