Episode 253 of The Hitstreak, a podcast where we talk about anything and everything!This week we are joined by Southern crossover artist and American Idol Top 30 Bryant Thomas!Episode in a Glance:In this episode of The Hitstreak, I sit down with Bryant Thomas, a Southern crossover artist and American Idol Top 30 who is in Nashville recording his debut album. Bryant was a fire protection inspector in Alabama with no friends his own age and no drive, posting Christmas music in June and playing seven hour TikTok Lives for four viewers, when Alyona Palhof, the woman who would become his wife, found him and believed in him more than anyone ever had. We get into the leap of faith that ended his party band days, how Big Vinnie sent his picture straight to Luke Bryan, the audition where producers had to ask him to act excited, and the moment he got down on one knee on the American Idol stage and forgot to actually ask the question. Plus the album with no genre, nine instruments and a trombone on stage, the Blues Tavern jam family that shaped his sound, his sister beating a thirty percent survival rate as a little girl, and the prayer that took him from 20,000 to 275,000 monthly listeners in one month.Key Points:- TikTok Live takes the gatekeeping out of the industry. It connects you straight to the people.- Somebody believing in you can be the reason you start believing in yourself.- The dice do not work if you do not roll them.- Golden ticket or not, you can walk out of the room a winner.- Nobody can make your art better than you.- Serve the song. The genre is not the point.- You are a songwriter when you are writing songs, so always be writing.- There is no way to succeed following in someone else's footsteps. You will always be behind them.- Everything you learn in life applies to music, and everything you learn in music applies to life.- God does not give you things you are not ready for.About our guest:Bryant Thomas is a Southern crossover artist and American Idol Top 30 from the Gulf Coast, raised on Mobile Bay. Classically trained in music from middle school through college and in jazz band from sixth grade on, he plays nine instruments, including the trombone he brings on stage to set his shows apart. He spent his Monday nights jamming with the old heads of the Blues Tavern, a historic stop on the Gulf Coast blues circuit, and it taught him the thing his music still runs on: it does not have to be perfect, it has to be real.After high school he worked as a fire protection inspector in Alabama, and a TikTok account he started almost as a joke turned into the whole road: a viral Taylor Swift cover led American Idol to reach out, the auditions led to the Top 30, and at his audition he got down on one knee and proposed to Alyona Palhof, the woman who found him on TikTok when he was, in his words, nobody. Now based in Florida and recording his debut album Rock Bottom in Nashville, he has Shoulda Known, Drinking Again and Drunken Denial out now, with the big ballads still to come.Follow and contact:Instagram: @Bryant.Thomas.BandWebsite: BryantThomasMusic.comSubscribe to Nick's top-rated podcast The Hitstreak on Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/NickHiterFollow and Rate us on Spotify: https://spotify.com/NickHiterFollow and Rate us on Apple Podcast: https://podcasts.apple.com/NickHiterFollow and Rate us on iHeartRadio: https://www.iheart.com/NickHiter

Will any of today's hit songs still be sung 50 years from now?Kurt, Tully, KLo, and Neil look back at the music that shaped them—from Hank Williams Jr., Van Halen, and Def Leppard to John Denver, Glen Campbell, Elvis, Bryan Adams, and Paul Rodgers—and debate whether modern songs are given enough time to become true classics.They also reveal how Jason Aldean and Luke Bryan's alternating stadium show works, explain why songwriters don't really “sell” individual songs, and discuss how streaming and shrinking attention spans have changed the way listeners experience music.Then things deteriorate—in the best possible way—with exhausted airport stories, Tully's confrontation on a plane, the dangers of flying with guitars, UPS losing a one-of-a-kind custom bass, Kelley mistaking his treadmill malfunction for an earthquake, and the strangest things fans throw onstage.Listen all the way through and remember the secret phrase: “Donk Toss.”______________________________________________________________________________________________SPONSORS: The Try That in a Small Town Podcast is powered by e|spaces!Redefining Coworking - Exceptional Office Space for Every BusinessBook a tour today at espaces.comFrom the Patriot Mobile studios:Don't get fooled by other cellular providers pretending to share your values or have the same coverage.

And we are just back from 4 days hunting in the berry patches in western Oregon. The blackberries are heavy on the vines and you can smell them when you get out of the truck.

What happens when you put us in a room with a pair of hilarious, talented twin sisters who finish each other's sentences, constantly tease one another, and are chasing their dreams in the music industry? Absolute chaos—and we loved every second of it. Joining us from New York City is the dynamic pop duo Twin City, fraternal twin sisters Anjali and Bhavani Piti, whose infectious personalities, incredible chemistry, and passion for music immediately make this one of our most entertaining interviews yet. Before we even begin, the competition starts with a hilarious game of rock-paper-scissors to determine which twin will receive Pol's famous Armenian Coffee Reading tomorrow. The game may be over in seconds, but the playful sibling rivalry continues throughout the entire conversation, giving us plenty of laughs along the way. We dive into what it was like growing up with Indian and German heritage, being born and raised in New York, and sharing a bond that only twins can truly understand. From discovering they're actually different heights after years of assuming they were exactly the same to talking about their unique personalities, family dynamic, younger brother, and life together in Manhattan, the sisters open up about the experiences that shaped both their lives and their music. Of course, we couldn't wait to talk about their upcoming debut album, Fantasy Love, a dreamy dance-pop project years in the making. They share how they developed their signature cinematic pop sound, why they finally felt ready to release a full-length album, what inspires their songwriting, and how they collaborate as sisters without letting competition get in the way. We also learn the surprising story behind the name Twin City, along with some of the very different names they almost chose before finding the perfect fit. The conversation takes another exciting turn as they reveal what it was really like auditioning for American Idol in front of Katy Perry, Luke Bryan, and Lionel Richie. We compare audition stories, swap behind-the-scenes experiences, and share plenty of laughs as Pol tells his unforgettable American Idol story that still makes us laugh years later. From waiting all day for auditions to handling rejection, we talk honestly about perseverance, believing in yourself, and why success in entertainment is often about showing up again and again. As always, the conversation quickly expands beyond music. We chat about living in New York City, balancing creativity with business, social media, TikTok, vintage fashion, sustainable shopping, vegan living, independent artistry, open mic performances, and navigating today's ever-changing entertainment industry. Along the way, Pol shares heartfelt advice about staying authentic, embracing vulnerability, and allowing opportunities to find you instead of trying to force every outcome—a conversation that becomes one of the most meaningful moments of the episode. Naturally, there are plenty of unexpected detours only UNDRESSED can deliver. Between celebrity stories, reality television, couture fashion, Carrie Underwood, the Real Housewives, viral TikTok trends, outrageous one-liners, and our signature off-the-rails humor, this episode perfectly captures the unpredictable energy that makes our conversations so much fun. If you love discovering rising artists before everyone else does, hearing behind-the-scenes stories from the entertainment industry, and laughing through every unexpected tangent, this is an interview you won't want to miss. And trust us... after getting to know Twin City you'll definitely want to come back for one twin's Armenian Coffee Reading that could reveal what the future has in store.

Brantley Gilbert joins The Brothers Hunt for one of the most honest and funniest conversations ever recorded in God's Country. Brantley opens up about the addiction that nearly controlled his life, revealing why he never drank simply to have fun—he drank to quiet the noise. He shares what finally pushed him toward sobriety, what Keith Urban told him about performing sober, and the unforgettable advice Toby Keith gave him when he needed to fight his way forward. The boys also dig into Brantley's new album, Sins of the Father, including the fear that inspired its title track, his prayer that his children won't have to pay for his past, and how becoming a husband and father completely changed his priorities. Brantley also shares the powerful story behind “Beggin' for Change” with Jelly Roll and explains why addiction doesn't care who you are or where you come from. Of course, it wouldn't be God's Country without some chaos. Brantley reveals why he broke out an American-flag Speedo on a family beach trip, defends Luke Bryan from his critics, reacts to the Mandela Effect, and explains why winning over ten strangers in a bar can be harder than performing for 30,000 people. This episode has it all: addiction, recovery, faith, fatherhood, country music, hunting stories and plenty of redneck nonsense. Brantley Gilbert's new album, Sins of the Father, arrives July 24.

Luke Bryan, beta blockers, and betrayal — it's all on the table this week. Carrie and Meg kick off with Carrie's girl's night at the Luke Bryan concert before diving headfirst into the Summer House reunion, and honey, they have thoughts. They break down the three-part reunion, call out Wes for being a stone-faced walking red flag, and pour one out for Sierra — the friend who championed Amanda every season only to get stabbed in the back. But then things get personal: Andy Cohen's offhand comment about beta blockers sent Carrie down a rabbit hole, and she's dropping a wild revelation about how 20 years of heart medication may have been quietly flattening her emotions — through Bora Bora, Bali, affairs, and everything in between. The girls also weigh in on what Sierra's glow-up means for the future of the show, why cancel culture can kill a reality TV career overnight, and what it says about a woman's self-esteem when she fights over a man who — let's be honest — is not even cute. Team Sierra, always.

From bar-hopping at CMA Fest with Jason Aldean's band to scheduled high school fights at 3 pm sharp, this episode of Try That in a Small Town is all about chaos, consequences, and the crazy ways we somehow survive it all. The guys kick things off with surgery scars, locked-up backs, and near misses in the garage, then pivot into behind-the-scenes CMA Fest stories, in-ear monitor nightmares, and why late-night stadium sets grind down even veteran players. They talk Morgan Wallen flipping pianos and throwing phones, Taylor Swift's historic new country single tied to Toy Story 5, and how modern country production has become so “perfect” it's almost personality-free. Things get heavier when they unpack the Carmelo Anthony/Austin Metcalf stabbing at a track meet, race narratives in the media, and what real self-defense is—and isn't—when someone pulls a knife. They contrast that with a powerful small-town hero story: a Gwinnett County officer who saves a 7-year-old launched through a windshield. In classic TTIAST fashion, the crew rounds it out with songwriting pet peeves, delusional DMs from strangers wanting co-writes and video calls, bullying stories that still haunt them, and how golf, TV binges, and pizza reviews are getting them through recovery. 01:30 Surgeries, brutal bruises, allergic reactions to bandages and upcoming product bans in Tennessee 04:40 Locked-up back on the toilet, crawling across the house and day-three recovery status 06:30 Surviving CMA Fest: bar crawl sets, in-ear monitor disasters and playing blind on stage 09:45 Bar energy vs stadium distance and podcast fans popping up at shows 11:15 Late-night stadium headlining slot, fried fans, and what TV does to show times 14:00 Original Glory and Patriot Mobile sponsor segments 15:10 Learning piano one-handed after surgery, Jingle Bells, and mining TV shows for song ideas 17:50 TV recs: Life After Lockup, The Invisible Pilot, and Cape Fear reboot 20:20 NBA and Stanley Cup talk: Knicks' huge comeback, Wembanyama, and why some tuned out the NBA 22:45 Trump at the Garden, celebrity courtside culture, and politics vs respect for the office 24:40 Taylor Swift's Toy Story 5 country single and the business behind her return to the format 29:00 Why modern country records all sound the same and the few acts still using their own bands 31:40 Morgan Wallen: “I Ain't Coming Back” lyric love, phone toss, piano flip and Billy Joel's defense 36:30 Wild private plane trip with Morgan Wallen, crass “rich buddies” and what stuck with Kalo 38:20 Post-surgery meds, apologizing to Neil, and the nurse/dong/stripper one-liner 41:10 Group shave before a heart cath and hospital humor 42:00 CMA Fest nights with Luke Bryan at his bar, tequila overload and four-day hangovers 44:10 Dipshits of the week: insane video chat requests, song pitches, and social media entitlement 47:00 Fans demanding co-writes and “brain picking” vs actually earning a seat at the table 50:40 The worst song “idea” ever: Cats in the Cradle… but backwards 55:00 Young writers sliding into DMs, asking for writes and coffees, and basic industry etiquette 58:40 Nearly gassing yourself in a closed garage while checking mixes: calling dipshit on yourself 1:01:40 Drone-rescue story: Apache down, surviving in the water and next-level military tech 1:05:30 Golf injuries, steroids on the road, and fighting to stay in playing shape 1:07:10 The Carmelo Anthony–Austin Metcalf stabbing: facts, sentencing and race narratives 1:12:10 Media framing, self-defense vs murder, and how race gets injected into every case 1:16:00 Scheduled school fights at the park, bus brawls and why nobody brought knives back then 1:19:40 Getting drilled in the face for knocking a kid's basketball away: lesson learned 1:20:30 One cold jab to the nose and understanding when you've gone too far 1:22:10 The bully who made you fast: getting wrecked in pickup football and later asking for tickets 1:24:20 Small Town Big Story: Officer Ariana James saves a 7-year-old thrown from a truck in Gwinnett County 1:26:10 Closing: Peacemaker Coffee, shoutout to listener Ed, scheduled fights and listener call-to-action ______________________________________________________________________________________________SPONSORS: The Try That in a Small Town Podcast is powered by e|spaces!Redefining Coworking - Exceptional Office Space for Every BusinessBook a tour today at espaces.comFrom the Patriot Mobile studios:Don't get fooled by other cellular providers pretending to share your values or have the same coverage.

His latest EP Drinkin' Hand showcases both his humor and heart, featuring the latest single "Said No Redneck Ever."
