Happy Thursday, everyone. Today's show's a little on the abstract side. Some guy and Austin and I are talking about cowboys. I mean actual cowboys, songs about cowboys, movies about cowboys, what it takes to be a cowboy, and toward the middle of the show, you get an extra treat. In a rare moment, some guy in Austin starts singing.

If it wasn't one of the best songs in the history of ever, I would have politely edited it out.

But it turns out when this song is performed by anyone, I'm drawn in.

Like young Lindsay to Troy Aikman.

For those of you who don't know, he's a cowboy, too.

Hey, everyone, I'm Lindsay and welcome to the I Hate Green Beans podcast.

During each episode, I'll be discussing television, movies, music, and books with friends who love pop culture as much as I do.

For those of you wondering, yes, we will be talking about the Bachelor franchise.

And no, I do not want to try your grandmother's famous green bean casserole recipe.

But thanks for offering.

Now sit back, relax, and enjoy the show.

It's not Bachelor season, but that didn't stop me from calling my friend, some guy in Austin,

to help me out when all of my other

guests kind of fell flat today. So I called you in an emergency and you're totally jumping in.

Thank you so much. Listen, first of all, in life today's subject, I will say howdy. And you know,

I think you can vouch that I always say howdy.

In fact, I was on the East Coast recently and I walked into a restaurant and said howdy and the

lady looked at me like I had just, you know, spilled a drink on her favorite pantsuit.

But let me just rephrase what...

I don't know.

That's what they wear in the East Coast, I think.

That's my...
