this week you are in for quite a treat because i am pickin it out with a couple of legends in country music, peanutt and charlene montgomery. now peanutt wrote over 70 songs for george jones and tammy wynette. he also wrote songs for emmylou harris, hank williams jr, melba montgomery, and many more. you might have seen them on shows like 'tales from the tour bus' or 'george and tammy' but you have never seen them like this.
i apologize for the audio issues in this episode. it was filmed in april 2026, before i upgraded all of my equipment, so we had some mic problems. after a lot of thought, i decided this episode is too good not to publish so i hope y'all will enjoy this as much as i did and please forgive me for the sound problems in this one.
this week, i am pickin it out with one of my favorite real country music artists these days, mo pitney. we talk about everything from mo meeting merle haggard to the bible to the current state of his longtime record deal with curb records.
