In this episode, Matt revisits the story of Robert Johnson and his supposed deal with the Devil at the crossroads. Along the way we discuss the history of Blues music, Jim Crow-era racism, and how the culture of the 1980s led to the story of the bluesman who sold his soul becoming permanently affixed to Johnson.
