Post Malone Biography Flash a weekly Biography. Post Malone's last few days have been a blur of tour drama, viral clips, and serious album stakes, and it all matters for his long term story. The most biographically important move is business, not spectacle: multiple outlets including The Charlotte Observer and entertainment coverage on Instagram report that Post has **scrapped six stadium dates and pushed back the start of his Big Ass Stadium Tour with Jelly Roll by about three weeks** so he can finish his upcoming double album, The Eternal Buzz. He posted directly to fans that he had promised new music and realized he could not complete the record and properly rehearse a full stadium run at the same time, so cities including El Paso, Waco, Baton Rouge, Birmingham, Tampa, and Oxford were dropped from this leg. According to those reports, this is not a minor tweak; it is a conscious bet that the album will outlast any short term touring revenue and will define his next era. On stage, though, the headlines have been wilder. NDTV and AOL Entertainment both circulated a now viral video from his recent performance at Gulf Coast Jam in Florida, where he appeared unsteady, rolled and lay on the stage, then lit a cigarette mid song before staring blankly toward the crowd. Some commentators on Instagram and TikTok reels are calling his behavior “bizarre” and comparing the footage to Amy Winehouse's troubled final performances, while others insist it is exaggerated stagecraft and part of his rock star persona. At this point, there is no verified medical or legal issue linked to that clip; any claims about substance abuse or crisis are speculation from fans and commentators, not confirmed by Post, his team, or major news organizations. Despite the chatter, his country crossover march continues. Local Carolina coverage and festival organizers on Facebook confirm that Post Malone is locked in as a **headliner at the 2026 Carolina Country Music Fest in Myrtle Beach alongside Blake Shelton**, a booking that underscores his ongoing pivot into country and his perception by promoters as a bankable, genre straddling superstar. Meanwhile, regional outlets like WCNC Charlotte have been highlighting huge crowds turning out for his co headlining shows with Jelly Roll, signaling that demand is strong even as dates move around. On social media, his official X account recently teased “see you in 10 days” tied to the tour rollout, but he has otherwise kept things relatively minimal, letting the postponement statement and the viral concert footage do most of the talking for him. Health and sobriety rumors continue to surface on TikTok and lesser known blogs, but Post has previously attributed his recent weight loss to lifestyle changes like cutting soda, and there have been no fresh, sourced interviews in the last couple of days revising that explanation, so newer panic posts remain unconfirmed commentary rather than fact.

Food trails can transform a meal into a full-on adventure, offering travelers a deeply personal way to connect with a place, its people, and its history.In this episode, host Angie Orth is joined by food and travel writer Kayleigh Ruller, a contributor to Food & Wine, Eater, and the Charlotte Observer, based in New York and North Carolina. With years of experience exploring culinary cultures across the country, Kayleigh brings both local expertise and a journalist's curiosity to the growing phenomenon of food trail travel.You'll learn what makes a food trail more than just eating your way through a city, how to plan one that fits your schedule and appetite, and why the best food trails are often the ones you build yourself.

This episode is presented by Create A Video – An article in the Charlotte Observer tries to make the case that Mecklenburg Sheriff Garry "Not My Fault" McFadden lost the support of white Democrats in his primary.

We're back from the road with a fresh batch of tour tales! We were staying on the same floor as the Chicago Bulls and got the chance to train like an athlete when a fire alarm caused us to haul these big ole thighs up 13 flights of stairs! From there we get into the important stuff: the very questionable legality of NYC bodega cats, the man who broke into a Little Caesars to make and sell pizzas (kinda a hero... very Sammich coded). We address the special kind of torture that is "trying to buy concert tickets online," Canadian cafe haters on Yelp, and so much more!!This episode was mixed and edited by Kevin Betts.Sponsors:➜ Get 20% off your first order, plus free shipping at MeUndies.com/counselors and using our code: counselors➜ Talk it out, with BetterHelp.
