Chris Gaines' Greatest Hits by… Garth Brooks? (with Stephen Deusner, author of the 33 ⅓ book on Chris Gaines)

Who or what is Chris Gaines, exactly, and to what extent is Garth Brooks involved? We are just as confused as you are.  Luckily, Stephen Deusner, author of the definitive book on Chris Gaines, has been forced to join us as we try to make sense of whatever this is.  Also on this episode: Ralph performs Chris Gaines' most notorious song like you've never heard it before.    Keep up with Stephen here: https://www.stephendeusner.com   Find us on Bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/rchpodcast.bsky.social   Or send us an email: [email protected]   Our visual art was created by Elaine Banks (@elaineprints on IG).   This podcast is recorded at a house somewhere in Michigan and produced in a state of sweaty panic by Ralph and Michael, who have no choice in the matter. It's a long story not worth getting into here, but if you've been with us thus far, you've probably more or less pieced it together.
