The Importance of Being Ernest with Justin Lloyd

Here is a quick Ernest mini-episode. I talked with Jim Varney documentarian Justin Lloyd, who is also Varney’s nephew. I thought it would be a nice follow-up to last week’s conversation with Ernest writer Daniel Butler. While neither Lloyd or Varney are Nashvillians, the character of Ernest was birthed there. This blew my mind when I found out about it, hence a two-parter. We’ll be back with a full episode next week!
