I've been hired to do oppo research by Dillon's Resistance.

Too late, hotplate. I've already Made Dillon Great Again.

I suppose you have gotten life expectancy back down to the glorious Cretaceous Period.

I have honestly never heard “Dirt Dauber” used outside of South Carolina.

Made up of JD Wilkes from The Legendary Shack Shakers, his wife and some others.

Wasn't Dirt Dauber governor during the 1920s? If memory serves, he was an arch-segregationist and wasn't too keen on Jews or Catholics either.

You’re thinking of Pinckney “Mud Puppy” Ravenel.

Huh. Maybe it's Alabama.

I have been listening to episodes of the Cocaine & Rhinestones podcast, which are deeply researched dives into 20th century country artists/songs/etc: https://cocaineandrhinestones.com/

Great stuff. The Bobbie Gentry episode is fascinating as hell.

Been digging Sunny Sweeney lately. Here she is covering jerry jeff walker:


on a hank-related note, if i'd written the Kristofferson tune, I'd have probably called it "if you don't like hank williams then you can go fuck yourself" which is why no one asks me to write lyrics for them.

I somehow missed this the first time. Yeah that podcast owns. The Spade Cooley one is not for the faint of heart, even if (like me) you already knew a bit about him from James Ellroy.

The Spade Cooley episode was horrifying.

I just finished the Tom T. Hall episode today and it prompted me to try to dig into his catalog a bit more than the Greatest Hits I already know (and enjoy). Man... he had not been served well in the digital era. I'd say a good 3/4 or more of his albums have never made it onto CD and the streaming pickings are pretty slim.
