This week Danny and Tyler discuss forgotten country superstar Webb Pierce, and his hit version of "In The Jailhouse Now." They're joined by comedian and Webb Pierce fan, Michael Timlin (Work Sucks, I Know! Podcast). Webb Pierce may be a new name to many, but the dude basically owned country music radio in the 50's, so there's a lot of fun stuff to unpack and talk about.
The boys discuss Webb's (in)famous extravagance, faking it 'til you make it, and the illusive origins of "In The Jailhouse Now."
