Show Notes

GARTH BROOKS GOES ROCK! Friend of the pod, Bonnie Finley, joins us for that one album we knew we were going to have to do eventually. Is this more like Jim Carrey playing Andy Kaufman, or Andy Kaufman playing Tony Clifton? Is this what people in Nashville think rock sounds like? What lessons did a young Garth Brooks learn from Kiss? Which Indiana Jones movie is really the worst? Who is a better rapper, Billy Joel or Garth Brooks? What kind of car accident would rearrange your face from that of a Brad Pitt stand-in to that of a middle age Garth? What kinds of drugs inspired this album? And most importantly: Is Garth Brooks really Lil Nas X? Hop in the saddle and rope the wind with us this week on Detours and Outliers.
