The Department of Transportation has a nine-point plan to improve truckers' lives – and two hours-of-service reforms are a key part of it. Also, an ad campaign for a bread company eventually led to trucking's best-known song – “Convoy” by C.W. McCall. We'll tell you how it happened. And Land Line Now's Mark Reddig, Scott Thompson and Ashley Blackford gather in studio A to discuss some high points from the program's two decades on the air. 0:00 – Hours-of-service reforms are on the table – what's next? 09:55 – How the trucking anthem “Convoy” came to be 38:43 – A final look back at 20 years of Land Line Now
Billy Graham was frequently at the White House during the Bush/Regan Administration, yet I never had cause to personally encounter him.I was, however, privy to conversation about Billy Graham since my MK Ultra mind control owner US Senator Robert C Byrd often bragged about controlling him through Voice of God programming. (https://trance-formation.com/voice-of-god/)Unbeknownst to Billy Graham, he was being manipulated to blur the line between church and state, promoting politics to his followers. Graham's followers were strategically increased through DARPA/CIA harmonics, which were also the driving force behind Byrd's Voice of God programming. The formula for mind control is always the same, whether it is of an individual, classroom, military, church, nation, or the world.Harmonics vibrate neuron pathways in the brain for effective means of subconscious manipulation. Scientifically tuned frequencies both audible and subaudible were already being imbedded in popular music to create icons like MK Ultra's notorious Michael Jackson and, above all, to socially engineer the public. Of course this harmonic equipment is used in evangelical movements like it was in Billy Graham's!I'm often asked what I know about Billy Graham since apparently other survivors have named him as a complicit perpeTraitor, and my insight is not intended to discredit their assertions despite my experience being far removed from theirs. Instead, it is imperative to factor MK Ultra into the equation before conclusions are drawn. Consider that mind control is used on those who refuse to comply with the Deep State globalist dark agenda.Intelligence insider Mark Phillips, who was working the highest levels of intelligence to preserve the sanctity of free thought, reported being exposed to information on the MK Ultra manipulation of Billy Graham. Mark was livid to learn how churches – like every other aspect of society- were being covertly infiltrated. This outrage, along with seeing innocent citizens like my daughter and me used deep in the Wash DC MK Ultra human trafficking swamp, added to his determination to expose these crimes against humanity.How fortunate for my daughter and me that Mark chose to lift us free of our victimization. He knew, like experience taught me, that without free thought there is no free will ability to access the strength of the human spirit and infinite power of love. Mind control is ultimately a spiritual battle, which compounds the felony of controlling churches through MK Ultra means. It was my experience to have had exposure to the Jimmy Swaggart dynasty of complicit Deep State globalist controls. Swaggart was aware of harmonic means of manipulation, and chose to use the evangelical route to grow and control a congregation. His infamous admission “I have sinned” was a mere diversionary understatement of his true crimes against humanity.Swaggart's “missions” included MK Ultra mind control human trafficking and CIA cocaine ops. Traveling into Haiti, Mexico, and throughout the Caribbean, missionaries were used to inadvertently transport cocaine for CIA drug ops running through Bill Clinton's Mena operations and the Country Music industry. Further details are in my 1995 testimony for Congress, which was censored under National Security, TRANCE Formation of America. Swaggart's ministries interfaced with Billy Roy Moore's Lord's Chapel in Nashville, which is among several MK Ultra complicit churches I was used through in the 1980's. This gave me insight into Swaggart's Deep State operations that extended through his relatives associated with Country Music industry Mickey Gilley and Johnny Lee.

Today's country music industry is deeply associated with a certain jingoistic ‘rally around the flag,' ‘support the troops' spirit. In this week's podcast, we're re-airing a conversation with Joseph M. Thompson, author of Cold War Country: How Nashville's Music Row and the Pentagon Created the Sound of American Patriotism.Micah and Joseph discuss how hillbilly music transformed into the powerful country music industry, starting with a little assistance from the US military in the 1940s and 50s. Plus, how country music came to be linked to a certain type of American patriotism, and why some of country music's most famous jingoistic songs are more complex than many listeners think.

The stark reality of women's declining presence on country radio sparks a passionate debate among Nashville veterans in this candid conversation about the state of modern country music. When confronted with the statistic that female artists now make up only 8.39% of country radio play—down from 29% in 2000—the hosts don't hold back their theories on why this dramatic shift has occurred.Amid criticisms that today's female artists "all sound the same," the group highlights an emerging artist named Mary Kutter who's breaking the mold with her authentic Kentucky backwoods sound and polarizing approach. Her willingness to tackle controversial subjects has drawn comparisons to how Alanis Morissette disrupted 90s music, offering a refreshing counterpoint to an industry that often rewards safe, formulaic music from female performers.The discussion takes an unexpected turn when the hosts identify a major opportunity in country music—the duo category. With Florida Georgia Line's breakup leaving a vacuum and Brooks & Dunn still commanding attention decades into their career, they make a compelling case for why aspiring male artists might find greater success by pairing up rather than competing as solo acts in an oversaturated market.Perhaps most revealing is the conversation about changing power dynamics in Nashville, where even songwriters with double-digit number one hits describe having to jump through new hoops just to get in a writing room with today's artists. This shifting landscape points to deeper concerns about respect for craft and experience in an industry increasingly driven by streaming numbers and social media presence rather than artistic legacy.Between moments of nostalgia for 90s country's distinctive female vocalists and candid observations about political divisions splitting up successful acts, this episode offers an unfiltered look at country music's present challenges and future possibilities from those who've lived through its many evolutions.

More often than not, country music is seen as an "American" genre – meaning that the music is seen as strictly from the United States. In some ways, that's true; but the genre's iconography, sound, and ethos can actually be traced to the south of the border, in Mexican regional music. The worlds have been more intertwined than you would think, and in musica mexicana, we find the closest comparison to what we traditionally call "country music." In this episode of Switched On Pop, in honor of country week, we take a look at the cumbia-corrido hybrid "Me Jalo" from Fuerza Regida and Grupo Frontera, two U.S. based acts performing Mexican regional music, to see what ties the cultures together. Songs discussed: George Strait – El Rey Carín León – Necesito Encontrarte Fuerza Regida, Grupo Frontera – ME JALO Fuerza Regida – TQM Grupo Frontera, Bad Bunny – un x100to Fuerza Regida – SECRETO VICTORIA Grupo Frontera, Grupo Firme – EL AMOR DE SU VIDA Fuerza Regida, Grupo Frontera – Bebe Dame Shania Twain – Whose Bed Have Your Boots Been Under Hank Williams – Your Cheatin' Heart Learn more about your ad choices.

Our guests this episode are The Doohickeys, a comedic country music duo who are on the rise in the Americana and country music worlds. Haley and Jack join The Dads to talk about their journey from house parties and open mic nights in LA to playing the Ryman Auditorium and releasing their debut album, All Hat No Cattle. We talk about their creative process, the current state of independent country music, and about how Jack was once starstruck by Jon Pardi. We also talk about Dad Jokes: the definition, their proper use, and their pun-filled overlap with country music. This pair is hilarious and we hope you enjoy a behind-the-scenes look at their unique brand of comedy and music.Show Notes03:31: Creative Process for a Comedic Country Duo: Haley and Jack like to start with a clever premise. And even if they don't think Too Ugly to Hitchhike is the smartest song they've written, plenty of fans thinks so.05:29: The Doohickeys Origin Story: The Doohickeys were born at an LA Halloween party and raised on a shared love of "good" country music and an original plan to make sketch comedy YouTube videos.10:13: More Background on Creating Comedy Songs and Their Comedy Influences: Haley and Jack share the story behind Rein it in Cowboy. And they cover their main influences like Minnie Pearl, the Blue Collar Comedy Tour, and their very funny parents and grandparents.14:54: The Doohickeys Play The Ryman: The duo share their thoughts on playing The Mother Church of Country Music and pooping in the same toilet as Hank Williams.16:58: Making a Point vs Making It Funny: Jack shares some wisdom from Phil Rosenthal (showrunner for Everybody Loves Raymond) about the power of clarity in comedy to get laughs and to get your point across. They also comment on the balance that serious artists walk when trying to be funny, and that funny artists walk when trying to be serious.21:33: The Doohickeys Get Serious: Jack and Haley give their commentary on the state of popular country music and the entertainment industry at-large, the uphill battle independent artists face, and their love/hate relationship with Spotify.27:54: Please Tell Me You're Sleepin' is Not Safe for the Family: Dave shares how he accidentally played one of The Doohickeys' more risque songs on a family road trip, and Haley shares how they were banned from a radio station for that same song.30:38: The Definition of a Dad Joke: The Doohickeys weigh in on Dave and Donnie's favorite comedy genre. Jack uses the poor pun in Tequila Little Time to share his true feelings about Jon Pardi.38:20: The Dad Joke Laugh Off: The Dads and The Doohickeys go head to head with their best dad jokes in an effort to get a laugh (or at least a cringe).Mentioned in This EpisodeSaving Country Music reviewAmerican Songwriter interviewThe Tiny Desk contest Minnie PearlRay StevensPhil Rosenthal's

Christina unpacks the true meaning of success—not the version society sells us, but the one you define for yourself. She reveals the surprising mindset shifts her most successful clients share: radical personal responsibility, relentless work ethic, and the courage to bet on themselves.Whether you're an entrepreneur, a high achiever, or simply someone who wants more out of life, this conversation will challenge how you think about growth, grit, and what it really means to create a life you're proud of.
Country music stands at a crossroads between tradition and evolution, and no artist embodies this tension better than Morgan Wallen. His song "I'm the Problem" opens with beautiful bluegrass guitar before hitting you with hard-hitting 808 basslines, creating a sonic reflection of country's current identity crisis. Wallen has this uncanny ability to turn his endless personal problems into undeniably catchy hooks that somehow make him more relatable, not less. Despite having every reason to write him off, there's something about his gritty voice and imperfect persona that keeps drawing listeners back. What makes him so compelling, and why his 37-track album dominated the charts, reveals something deeper about what country music is becoming. Learn more about your ad choices.

Scotty Hasting is now a popular country music singer but his story of service will explain a lot about the performer you see today.Hasting grew up in the Cincinnati, Ohio-Northern Kentucky area and developed immense respect for the U.S. military from the movies and television shows he watched. He enlisted in the Army at age 21, which quickly made him the "old man" in basic training. Hasting wanted to serve in the infantry because he wanted to be in the fight. Just a few months after basic training, he was off to Afghanistan with the 4-4 Cav. In April 2011, Hasting was severely wounded after being shot 10 times by an enemy gunman.In this edition of Veterans Chronicles, Hasting takes us to the day he was wounded in great detail. He explains how his brothers in the 4-4 Cav responded to his wounds and got him evacuated. He will also share how close he came to dying shortly after everyone in Kandahar thought he was stable enough to fly to Germany. He also tells us about his recovery at Walter Reed and his determination to return to active duty with his unit despite his wounds. Hasting then describes the path that led him to music and a very unlikely career in country music where he focuses a lot on helping veterans. He even shares a powerful story about how one veteran who planned to commit suicide changed his mind after hearing one of Scotty's song.

We're celebrating our 10th anniversary all year by digging in the vaults to re-present classic episodes with fresh commentary. Today, we're revisiting our 2017 conversation with Jimmy Webb. ABOUT JIMMY WEBBJimmy Webb emerged as a superstar songwriter and arranger in 1967 when two of his songs – The 5th Dimension's “Up, Up and Away” and Glen Campbell's “By the Time I Get to Phoenix” - were among the five nominees for the Grammy's Song of the Year award. He went on to write a string of major hits for Campbell, including “Wichita Lineman,” “Galveston,” "Where's the Playground Susie,” “Honey Come Back,” and many others. Additionally, he penned “MacArthur Park,” which was a hit for a diverse range of artists, including Richard Harris, Waylon Jennings, Tony Bennett, Andy Williams, and Donna Summer; “The Worst That Could Happen,” which was a Top 5 hit for The Brooklyn Bridge; “Didn't We,” which was recorded by Thelma Houston, Frank Sinatra, Diana Ross, and Barbra Streisand; “All I Know,” which became a Top 10 hit for Art Garfunkel; “The Moon's a Harsh Mistress,” which has been recorded by Joe Cocker, Judy Collins, Linda Ronstadt, and Josh Groban; and “If These Walls Could Speak,” which was recorded by Glen Campbell, Amy Grant, Nanci Griffith, and Shawn Colvin. Others who've covered material from the Jimmy Webb songbook include Diana Ross, Dusty Springfield, Nina Simone, The Four Tops, Roberta Flack, The Temptations, The Association, Tom Jones, Dionne Warwick, Cass Elliot, Harry Nilsson, Nancy Wilson, Cher, Bob Dylan, The Everly Brothers, Nick Cave, John Denver, Kenny Rogers, Sheena Easton, David Crosby, Rosemary Clooney, Michael Feinstein, R.E.M., Aimee Mann, America, Aretha Franklin, Isaac Hayes, Peggy Lee, Bette Midler, James Taylor, Carrie Underwood, Dwight Yoakam, and The Highwaymen (consisting of Johnny Cash, Willie Nelson, Waylon Jennings, and Kris Kristofferson), who took Jimmy's song “Highwayman” to #1, earning him a Grammy for Country Song of the Year. As an artist, he has released more than a dozen albums. One of the most celebrated songwriters on the planet, Jimmy is the only individual to win Grammy awards for music, lyrics, and orchestration. He was inducted into the Songwriters Hall of Fame, the Nashville Songwriters Hall of Fame, and the Great American Songbook Hall of Fame. Additionally, he has received ASCAP's Lifetime Achievement Award, the Influential Songwriter Award from the National Music Publishers Association, and the Academy of Country Music's prestigious Poets Award.
