Country Music VS The I.R.S. (Tax Day Spectacular!)

Since the release date of this episode happens to be Tax Day we decided to explore country music's complicated and contentious relationship with the I.R.S. Whether it's Cash or Paycheck, or the many in between, they've got beef with the government, and today we tell their stories! Who owed millions, who lost their property, who wrote songs about taxes, and who got songs written about them—it's all here in this episode!
Some announcements too!
Take This Pod and Shove It will be doing a live show at The Chief Comedy Festival in Trinidad Colorado again this year—May 5th at 5pm. Danny and Tyler will also be performing standup live at the festival.
