Bob Barry’s Unearthed Interviews Podcast: Tammy Wynette

Howdy folks! Welcome to a Country version of Bob Barry’s Unearthed Interviews. Here’s a woman who’s iconic as a cowboy hat at a honky-tonk, the first lady of Country music, Tammy Wynette. She was born Wynette Pugh in Tremont, Mississippi. She went from cotton picking to picking up Grammy awards. She taught us all how to spell D-i-v-o-r-c-e. And Tammy reminded us to “Stand By Your Man,” even if he forgot to take out the trash. Tammy’s life was like a Country song come to life, full of love and heartbreak. She paved the way for women in Country music and proved that a big voice and bigger hair can take you straight to the top.
