Pat Finnerty on YouTube does a great series called What Makes This Song Stink. It’s definitely not for everyone, as he doesn’t give a shit about YouTube algorithms and keeping videos to an ideal length. But has a recent hour long video on Jason Aldean’s Try That in a Small Town. The video (Pat Finnerty’s not Jason Aldean’s) is phenomenal.

Honestly, they’re worth going back and watching all of them from episode 1. He’s got a lot of jokes that he builds up across episodes.

He hooked me so hard by showing how Ohio would sound over it, I wanted to laugh but I was also flabbergasted and so just noise and head shaking and disbelief is what I mustered.

But yea, I’ll go back and watch the old ones. Thanks.

Pat Finnerty is a treasure. His podcast is also pretty funny if you haven’t checked it out. But every day a new video from him drops is a good day.

Another video you (and @FunderPants@lemmy.ca, @Grayox@lemmy.ml, @Holyhandgrenade@lemmy.world) might enjoy is Chill Goblin’s take on “Oliver Anthony, Welfare, and Blair Mountain”. Oliver Anthony is the artist who did “Rich Men North of Richmond” and it’s a really great breakdown with historical contexts from the mining union wars to the Reagan Era of “Welfare Queens”.

Todd in the Shadows also did a great breakdown of this song
