As season two continues, I am stoked to have John Spong on the show today. He was nominated for a National Magazine Award in 2009 and twice won the Texas Institute of Letters’ O. Henry Award for Magazine Journalism. He is the author of A Book on the Making of Lonesome Dove and his stories have been collected in Best Food Writing and The Best American Sports Writing. He’s got two boys named Willie Mo and Leon. Spong is a native Austinite and in my opinion, a walking Willie Nelson encyclopedia. I say this not only because he pretty much invented the Texas Monthly issue on Willie but also I have listened to every episode of his podcast called One By Willie where he has a notable Willie fan talk about their favorite Willie song. Check it out, it is WILLIE cool. My favorite episode is season two’s podcast with Don Was. Another one of my heroes. And because he knows so much about Willie, today’s podcast we each picked our favorite three Willie records and discussed them. If you don’t mind heading over to Apple podcasts and giving us a review, we’d sure appreciate it awful good! https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/my-top-five-records/id1494022573 Cheers! https://thebiggunshow.com/ https://www.facebook.com/thebiggunshowband/ https://www.instagram.com/thebiggunshowband/ https://www.youtube.com/thebiggunshowband
