Hank Williams: 40 Greatest Hits (1978)

This episode is pleasant but not memorable even though it features more hits than Bobby Bonilla because this week we become the best podcast about Hank Williams and the 132nd greatest album of all time, Hank Williams 40 Greatest Hits.    But before we get to the album we talk about some other stuff, because variety is the spice of life. First, we take a voicemail from an old friend, which leads to some stories about tobacco, a cheese ball container, a fire extinguisher, and a magic penny. Then we discuss eating tacos and lingerie shopping, how kids ruin our ability to enjoy our favorite activities and laying low at events with extended friends. We also become the best MMA podcast when we talk about being humbled at jiu-jitsu. And for those of you wondering, yes we're only at album 132 and we are going back to the ovipositor jokes.   Then at (48:00) we have our own little curtain call when we discuss Hank Williams and the 1978 compilation of his 40 Greatest Hits. We discuss Hank Williams's songwriting ability, the best songs with mandolins, and how Hank's catchy tunes can shoot daggers right in your heart.    Next week the guys will eat some black crow, proving again that this is the best Joni Mitchell podcast when we discuss her folk-rock album, Hejira.
