	88: "We Have Fed You All For 1000 Years" by Willi Carlisle	08 Jul 2025	01:03:02
This week Tyler and Danny discuss Willi Carlisle's incredible new album, Winged Victory, and add its opening tack to our Ultimate Country Playlist. "We Have Fed You All For 1000 Years" (sometimes written as 'A Thousand') is a powerful union song over 100 years old, attributed to "an unknown proletariat." In Carlisle's hands it is a barn burner that maintains all of the old song's importance, relevance, and bite. We love it and think you will too! Check out our Patreon! Check out our new merch store!
