Pickin' It Out with Andrew Pope

sometimes, no introduction is needed. this week, i am pickin it out with one of my biggest heroes and a man i am proud to call a friend, mr. travis tritt. if you have ever wanted to just sit and talk with travis tritt, do not miss this very candid episode with a country music legend (that NEEDS to be in the country music hall of fame). we talked about his friendships with folks like hank williams jr and waylon jennings, how he never moved to nashville, why he ever wanted to write a song, our mutual friend miss jeannie c riley, the state of country music today and so much more. if you are a newcomer in the music industry, travis also gives some invaluable advice. a lot of times i say don't miss this'n but right now i am going to tell you to absolutely NOT miss this. i appreciate travis having us out to his home to film this conversation.

this week you are in for quite a treat because i am pickin it out with a couple of legends in country music, peanutt and charlene montgomery. now peanutt wrote over 70 songs for george jones and tammy wynette. he also wrote songs for emmylou harris, hank williams jr, melba montgomery, and many more. you might have seen them on shows like 'tales from the tour bus' or 'george and tammy' but you have never seen them like this.
i apologize for the audio issues in this episode. it was filmed in april 2026, before i upgraded all of my equipment, so we had some mic problems. after a lot of thought, i decided this episode is too good not to publish so i hope y'all will enjoy this as much as i did and please forgive me for the sound problems in this one.

this week, i am pickin it out with one of my favorite real country music artists these days, mo pitney. we talk about everything from mo meeting merle haggard to the bible to the current state of his longtime record deal with curb records.
