Take This Pod and Shove It - The Best Covers of Bob Dylan’s “Don’t Think Twice, It’s All Right”

Take This Pod and Shove It is listener supported. Visit our Patreon to support the show!

Bob Dylan has always been a fan of country music, and even though he only intentionally wrote and recorded country music a few times in his career, his impact on the genre is massive and goes back to his earliest days as a young folk prodigy. This week Danny and Tyler take a look at one particular Dylan song that has been covered by country artists so many times it is basically a country standard: "Don't Think Twice It's All Right."

Listen to hear us rank our favorite covers of the classic tune; and to hear the controversial backstory behind the song's writing credits.
