In the late '90s, Jolie Holland and Samantha Parton founded The Be Good Tanyas. The duo reunited this year and CapRadio's host of Hey, Listen! Nick Brunner, invited them for an in-studio session and conversation.

Parton explains how a pair of car crashes in 2012 saved her life. Holland extolls the virtues of being born rich (even though she wasn't) and the pair discuss their encounters with a rare species - the female sound engineer.
