Post Malone BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.Post Malone has dominated the headlines in the past several days, with a wave of developments showing his remarkable momentum in music, fashion, business, and pop culture. The biggest news swirling right now is the growing speculation that Posty will headline the Dallas Cowboys' Thanksgiving halftime show later this month. The NFL team's cryptic teaser video—a truck, cheerleaders, cowboy boots, and a classic Dak Prescott bobblehead—all but shouted Post Malone, and the fan chatter online is reaching fever pitch, according to American Songwriter and El Paso Times. With the Cowboys set to take on the Chiefs, if he does perform, it will be a defining homecoming moment for the artist who grew up a diehard Cowboys fan, thanks to his father's work with the team.This spotlight comes hot on the heels of his foray into country, where Post Malone released F-1 Trillion in August to near-instant success, topping both UK and US charts. Hits Daily Double now confirms the album has moved more than 880,000 units this year—an achievement that's already reshaped his place in both pop and country history. Since the spring, Malone has been touring and making festival headlines, including a show-stopping set at Coachella, where he openly reflected on being labeled a one-hit wonder early in his career, urging fans to believe in themselves and ignore the doubters, as reported by Parade.The collaborations keep coming. Post and Morgan Wallen announced a new single, I Ain't Comin' Back, scheduled to drop this Friday, April 18, as detailed by TBS News. Social media engagement remains strong, with @postmalone's Instagram boasting 27 million followers and earning him between $54,000 and $74,000 per month, according to HypeAuditor. The latest campaign making waves features Malone stripped down to camo briefs for SKIMS, Kim Kardashian's high-profile brand, giving the launch of its men's heavyweight fleece extra star power. Images of Malone against Utah ranch backdrops captured by photographer Theo Wenner have been widely praised on social media and major outlets alike.Amidst the attention, fans have fixated on his dramatic weight loss—a transformation from 240 to 185 pounds that Malone attributes to cutting out soda and eating leaner, healthier meals as reported by NYU's Bulk publication. His father recently reassured fans in a statement to AOL that the singer is the healthiest he's been in years, dismissing worries about wellness.On the business front, Malone's longtime manager Dre London dropped new insights in a recent Earn Your Leisure podcast, recounting Post's journey from New York gamer and rapper to global superstar and mentioning how London's tequila venture, Don Londrés, has quickly pushed $2 million in sales—a reminder of the artist's broad entrepreneurial instincts.Rounding out the pulse of pop culture, fans and Queer Eye's Karamo Brown have joked on Twitter about sending Malone for a makeover on the Netflix sensation, with Post poking fun at himself while praising the show's hosts.With the ongoing Grammy buzz and new collaborations in Nashville making waves—verified by VPM/NPR—there's no sign of Malone slowing down. Whether it's new music, major TV moments, fashion collaborations, or just unapologetically being himself online, Post Malone is squarely in the biographical fast lane. And if those halftime rumors prove true, expect the next chapter to be bigger than ever. All reports point to a star refusing to be boxed in, driven as ever by self-belief and boundary-pushing creativity.Get the best deals https://amzn.to/3ODvOtaThis content was created in partnership and with the help of Artificial Intelligence AI

Author Matt Cox joins the show to unpack an online conspiracy linking country megastar Garth Brooks to clusters of disappearances and unsolved homicides—claims that exploded from Tom Segura & Christina P's Your Mom's House meme into a crowdsourced rabbit hole. We stress: these are allegations and speculation, not proven facts. Still, Matt walks us through why some internet sleuths think the timelines and tour stops are suspicious, how “organized” offenders evolve, and what retired profilers and a former tour roadie allegedly told him about the logistics that make this theory feel possible. In this episode (allegations discussed): -The YMH spark and why the guest decided to write a book with a formerly incarcerated co-author. -What “heat-map” patterns of missing persons around tour dates might suggest—and where that logic breaks. -Interviews with retired FBI profilers, criminologists, a Hollywood producer, and an anonymous roadie (under NDA). -Early cases near Oklahoma State University, the move to Nashville, and a controversial first big purchase: 300 acres of rural land. -Touring mechanics: slipping away between load-ins, rest-stop encounters, and the “suitcase” hypothesis. -Vegas residency years, access to a private jet, and why some claim disappearances spiked. -Why a simple on-air appearance could defuse the rumor—and why that may never happen.

He was born Jason DeFord in Nashville, Tennessee. By the time he was a teenager, he was in and out of jail, surrounded by addiction, violence, and survival. He thought his life would end the same way it began: in chaos. But somewhere inside those walls, he started writing lyrics and dreaming about music. Today, the world knows him as Jelly Roll, one of the most unlikely success stories in country music. He has gone from a decade behind bars to the top of the Billboard charts, winning CMA Awards and earning Grammy nominations along the way. His songs are raw, confessional, and painfully honest. They are about addiction, faith, shame, forgiveness, and the long, slow road to redemption. In this deeply moving conversation with Kate Langbroek, recorded backstage at Qudos Bank Arena in Sydney minutes before he hit the stage, Jelly Roll went deep about how he turned his pain into purpose. He shares the stories of the people who saved him, including his wife, Bunnie XO, and his children. He opens up about his years in prison, his mother’s struggles, his faith, and the moment he learned that forgiveness starts with yourself. It is the story of a man who refused to give up on himself, even when the world had. A boy who became a better man, a husband, a father, and one of the most honest voices in country music today.

Send us a textThank you, Steve Garraty, for making this week's episode possible! Today, we welcome Lon Stroschein to the podcast. Lon's story hit home for me after spending over 20 years in corporate America. He is now an author, a podcast, a coach, and more, and you will hear all about it today. At Normal 40, his relationship-based process starts by helping you articulate your dream—identifying the bigger life you've been waiting to build. They then organize those dreams into bold, actionable steps, remove the perceived risk, and design a life aligned with your aspirations. This is about betting on yourself, avoiding future regret, and creating an impactful family legacy.Lon's shares how moments in life will shape a leader at home and at work, and they thread through a conversation about values, courage, and the trade you make when success no longer feels like fulfillment.The spine of the story is a South Dakota farm and the 1980s crisis that forced his family to make hard choices. Instead of bankruptcy, his family sells land to make debts whole and rebuilds over decades with conservative discipline. That decision burns in a set of values—do what's right, operate as a team, protect your name—that later guide a midlife shift. We unpack a practical life model: what you inherit, what you build, when you realize your work here is done, and how you turn that into a legacy worth passing on.You'll also leave with a simple script that can change your home this week: ask “What do you need more of from me?” and only reply with “What else?” at least four times, then ask “What do you need less of from me?” and keep digging. No defense. No speeches. Just truth and follow-through. And if you're standing at your own fork in the road, you'll hear how a public company executive found the courage to step away when his best work wouldn't happen inside the org chart—and how a spouse's belief became the push that made his next journey so real.If this resonates, follow the show, share it with someone who needs a nudge, and leave a quick review so more parents and leaders can find these conversations. Your next chapter might start with one honest question.Support the showPlease don't forget to leave us a review wherever you consume your podcasts! Please help us get more dads to listen weekly and become the ultimate leader of their homes!
Country artist Tyler Hubbard joins Brooke Taylor and Pastor Mark Evans on The Upload to share how faith carried him through seasons of loss, change, and renewal. From losing his father in a tragic accident to rebuilding life and purpose after Florida Georgia Line, Tyler opens up about the moments that tested his trust in God—and the peace that came when he finally surrendered control. He also reflects on how fatherhood has deepened his understanding of grace, how he now views idols and success through a biblical lens, and the scriptures that continue to anchor his journey.
