159. The Ghost of Hank Williams

All my rowdy poltergeists are coming over tonight! And that's where Hank Jr. got his famous line. Wow, the family tree just unspools and unspools, and suddenly there's nothing left but an old guitar on a sad barroom floor. What were we talking about?

This is the story of Hank Williams. Come for the ghost, stay for flip him like a piggy bank, coquina theory, broad-boned frost giant, punching down quite literally, Wes Anderson music label, bolos and YOLOs, that's a pH joke, and our lawyers are terrible.
