Nancy had a dream that she got in the shoulder and neck twice while working as a bank teller. She woke up with pain in both places. We wonder if the pain caused the dream or vice versa. Do you want people to stop interrupting you? According to the FBI, if you add in a slight pause when you are talking, it makes the other person’s brain think what you are saying is important.

Is it really going to snow? All of the roads around East TN have been treated. Joey realized that’s why his car got dirty. A man in Florida got a DUI for being passed out drunk on a golf cart with the key in the ignition. We were curious how someone could be charged if they weren’t actually driving. The law says that if you’re in the vehicle and the keys are with you, you are “in control” of the vehicle (including golf carts). Hot Tea: The writers of Stranger Things are accused of using Reddit and ChatGPT to write the last season of the show.

Join your host Buzz Knight on the Takin A Walk replay episode with one of the most respected folks in the Nashville Music Scene. Jay DeMarcus shares his vast career in this episode, from his beginnings in Columbus Ohio, to his success with the legendary band Rascal Flatts. He also created and is CEO of independent label Red Street Records. Stanley Wayne “Jay” DeMarcus Jr. stands as one of country music’s most influential figures, not just for his role as a founding member of Rascal Flatts, but for his remarkable versatility as a musician, producer, and songwriter. Born on April 26, 1971, in Columbus, Ohio, DeMarcus discovered his musical calling early, immersing himself in piano, keyboards, and vocals throughout his childhood. DeMarcus’s journey to country music stardom began in his formative years, shaped by his Pentecostal upbringing and the gospel music that filled his church. This spiritual foundation would later inform the emotional depth and harmony-rich sound that became Rascal Flatts’ signature. After honing his skills in various musical settings, DeMarcus moved to Nashville in the 1990s, where he initially worked as a session musician and touring member for artists like Chely Wright and Michael English. The pivotal moment in DeMarcus’s career came in 1999 when he joined forces with his second cousin Gary LeVox and guitarist Joe Don Rooney to form Rascal Flatts. As the group’s bassist, keyboardist, and harmony vocalist, DeMarcus became the musical architect behind their polished, contemporary sound. His production sensibilities and instrumental prowess helped craft a string of unprecedented hits that redefined modern country music. Songs like “Bless the Broken Road,” “What Hurts the Most,” and “My Wish” showcased his ability to blend traditional country storytelling with pop-influenced arrangements and soaring vocal harmonies. Beyond his work with Rascal Flatts, DeMarcus established himself as a sought-after producer, working with artists including Chicago, James Otto, and Jo Dee Messina. His production style—characterized by lush instrumentation, meticulous attention to vocal arrangements, and radio-friendly polish—influenced a generation of country artists and producers. DeMarcus’s contributions to music have earned numerous accolades, including multiple Grammy Awards, Academy of Country Music Awards, and Country Music Association Awards. Rascal Flatts became one of the best-selling country groups of all time, selling over 23 million albums and 35 million digital downloads. The group’s consistent chart success throughout the 2000s and 2010s cemented their status as country music royalty. In his personal life, DeMarcus married Allison Alderson in 2004, with whom he shares two children. His family life occasionally intersected with his professional world, particularly through appearances on reality television and various media projects. The couple’s relationship became publicly documented through their participation in various entertainment ventures. Following Rascal Flatts’ farewell tour announcement in 2020—later postponed due to the COVID-19 pandemic—DeMarcus continued pursuing solo production work and exploring new creative ventures. His legacy extends far beyond his instrumental and vocal contributions; he helped shape the sound of 21st-century country music, proving that traditional country could successfully merge with contemporary production techniques while maintaining emotional authenticity. Jay DeMarcus remains a testament to the power of musical craftsmanship, demonstrating that technical excellence, combined with genuine artistry and commercial sensibility, can create timeless music that resonates across generations.

A modulation mistake that worked. A morning DJ who spun a ballad eight times in a row. A first-time co-write that became a TV theme and then went viral years later. Philip White joins us to share how a handful of honest songs leapt from small rooms to massive stages—and why some lines land like they were meant for the moment you hear them.We start with the whirlwind behind Rascal Flatts' I'm Movin' On, written in about fifteen minutes as grief turned into melody. You'll hear how a simple word tape cut through a no-ballads policy, how audience demand forced a single, and how that momentum carried the song to ACM Song of the Year. From there we trace the unexpected path of Reba's I'm A Survivor, born from a casual Friday write, lifted onto a Greatest Hits album, and reborn when millions on TikTok turned chores into an anthem of grit. Philip opens up about the craft choices and luck breaks that let a chorus travel across radio, TV, and social feeds.We dig into Nobody But Me, the Blake Shelton No. 1 that proves a strong hook and clean riff can carry a cut even without a pitch sheet. Then we unpack Scotty McCreery's The Trouble With Girls, where a stubborn hook earned its final turn after multiple rewrites. Through it all, Philip's Muscle Shoals roots shape a Nashville approach: let the magic fall out, then step away and tighten it cold. He shares a clear-eyed look at the modern landscape—streaming signals, writer camps, and politics of the room—without losing sight of the constant: it still begins with a song that feels true.If you care about country songwriting, artist development, and the moments where craft meets lightning, this story-rich conversation is for you. Subscribe, share with a friend who loves great songs, and leave a review to tell us which track hit you hardest.https://www.chrisblair.com/

Send us a textEddie stops by the show to discuss the hit song he wrote, 'Hit Me With Your Best Shot', his last CD, 'Film School', and so much more. ******The first time I heard Pat Benatar's version of ‘Hit Me With Your Best Shot,' I was almost arrested for loitering,” laughs internationally lauded Canadian songwriter, producer, performer, and rights advocate Eddie Schwartz about the song he penned that became Benatar's first Top Ten single in 1980. “I was walking down Yonge Street in Toronto when I heard it blasting out of a renowned hair salon and stopped dead in my tracks. I even think I started to drool [laughs]. As I stood there in a state of shock, a salon stylist called the police because of my strange behavior. When they arrived, they ordered me to move or face arrest. When I tried to explain to them that I just heard my song on the radio for the first time, they said, 'Sure, buddy. Move along." Stepping out from behind the curtain and into the spotlight, Schwartz will be physically releasing his full-length studio release on CD, FILM SCHOOL, on November 12, 2025. His songs have been recorded by an astonishing roster: Carly Simon, Joe Cocker, America, Donna Summer, Rita Coolidge, Rascal Flatts, and Mountain, among many others. As a producer, his credits include the Doobie Brothers' Cycles, Carrack's Groove Approved, and his own albums, all resonating with an unmistakable blend of craftsmanship and soul. This six-song EP finds the storied songwriter who authored such classics as Paul Carrack's "Don't Shed a Tear" (1987), The Doobie Brothers' "The Doctor" (1989), the aforementioned “Hit Me With Your Best Shot” (among hundreds of others) on the other side of the studio glass.“It's a difficult time right now and I freely admit to struggling with how to cope with the daily insanity,” says Eddie about the current political and socio-economic climate. Instead of subjecting himself to the barrage of news, he opted instead to return to the studio and write songs. “The moment of writing ‘We Win' was profound for me because I found a way to a more hopeful place that helped with anger, sadness and bewilderment at how we got here,” he explains. “I felt the message of ‘We Win' offered some sanity that I needed to cling to, that I needed to find for myself. And I wanted to share it in the hope it might work for others as well.” After an extended creative drought that plagued him for years, writing the single and subsequent songs on Film School was a turning point for him. “After a number of years doing the Nashville-style co-writing every day—two songs a day, five days a week— I burned out,” Eddie reflects. “The blank page stayed blank for a long time,” he explains of the rigorous demands of being a songwriter in today's music business. The catalyst to cure his writer's block was his frustration with current events. “My struggle to process the world at this moment in time and muster some resolve was what propelled me back in the writing mindset. ‘We Win' acknowledges the pain and the struggle, but professes love means you don't have to succumb to it.”*********If you would like to contact the show about being a guest, please email us at Dauna@bettertopodcast.comUpcoming guests can be found: https://dmneedom.com/upcoming-guest Follow us on Social MediaInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/author_d.m.needom/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/bettertopodcastwithdmneedomIntro and Outro music compliments of Fast Suzi©2025 Better To...Podcast with D.

On Episode 14 of Steel, we meet Travis Toy, one of Nashville's deepest pedal steel players. Travis has shared the stage and studio with some of modern country's biggest acts, including Luke Bryan, Rascal Flatts, Luke Combs, Steve Wariner and Patty Loveless. Travis is one of the deepest technical practitioners of pedal steel. He's just as comfortable playing a honky tonk gig as he is shredding jazz funk fusion on E9. We discuss his fascinating musical upbringing in Kentucky, his obsession with '90s country and GRP records, how he tries to play things that matter in the studio, and lots more.

Top Stories for August 19th Publish Date: August 19th PRE-ROLL: MONSTER JAM From The BG AD Group Studio, Welcome to the Gwinnett Daily Post Podcast. Today is Tuesday, August 19th and Happy Heavenly Birthday to Matthew Perry I’m Peyton Spurlock and here are your top stories presented by KIA Mall of Georgia Approaching 90, Lawrenceville's Bob Cunningham still in the swing of things as a golf teacher Rascal Flatts bringing Life Is A Highway tour to Gas South Arena Gwinnett wants to increase poll worker pay for 2026 elections All of this and more is coming up on the Gwinnett Daily Post podcast, and if you are looking for community news, we encourage you to listen and subscribe! Break 1: Kia MOG STORY 1: Approaching 90, Lawrenceville's Bob Cunningham still in the swing of things as a golf teacher Come September, Bob Cunningham—“Georgia’s Golf Guru” to those who know him—will hit a milestone most golfers only dream of: turning 90 and still shooting his age. But for Bob, golf isn’t just about playing—it’s about teaching. Five days a week, you’ll find him at Pine Hills Golf Club or The Sports Academy, sharing his “Alignment, Balance, Connection” philosophy with students. Bob’s been teaching for over 20 years, charging the same $50 an hour since day one. And retirement? Not a chance. Bob’s secret to staying young? Golf, fresh air, and purpose. For lessons, call 770-378-4310. STORY 2: Rascal Flatts bringing Life Is A Highway tour to Gas South Arena Fresh off their sold-out comeback tour, Rascal Flatts is gearing up for another run in 2026 with their Life Is A Highway tour—and yep, they’re stopping in Gwinnett. Mark your calendar: Feb. 12 at Gas South Arena. Joining them? Country favorite Chris Lane, adding even more energy to the 21-city tour that’s set to bring all the hits (and probably a few tears) to fans across the country. Tickets? They’re already on sale, so don’t wait—grab yours at Ticketmaster before they’re gone. Because let’s be honest, they will be. STORY 3: Gwinnett wants to increase poll worker pay for 2026 elections Gwinnett County wants to bump up pay for poll workers in 2026—and honestly, it’s about time. With a packed election year ahead (think: governor, U.S. Senate, and all the chaos in between), they’re asking for $120,913 to raise stipends and $87,972 for in-person training. The pay hikes? Modest but meaningful: poll managers could see $350 a day (up $10), assistant managers $280 (up $40), issuing clerks $235 (up $20), and non-issuing clerks $170 (up $10). Why? To stay competitive with neighboring counties and attract qualified workers. We have opportunities for sponsors to get great engagement on these shows. Call 770.874.3200 for more info. We’ll be right back Break 2: MONSTER JAM STORY 4: NBA Champion Adam Flagler Hosts Basketball Camp at Alma Mater Duluth Less than two months after winning an NBA championship with the Oklahoma City Thunder, Adam Flagler was back where it all started—Duluth High School—hosting his first-ever youth camp on Saturday. Over 200 kids showed up, from elementary schoolers to high school athletes, to learn from the former Wildcat who once dominated these same courts. Planning started months ago, with Duluth assistant coach Byron Wilson leading the charge. Flagler’s journey to the NBA wasn’t smooth. After graduating from Duluth in 2018 as the school’s all-time leading scorer, he took his only Division I offer at Presbyterian College. After a standout freshman year, he transferred to Baylor, where he helped the Bears win a national championship in 2021. Undrafted in 2023, Flagler signed with the Thunder, grinding in the G-League before earning a spot on the roster. This past season, he played 37 games and became an NBA champion. Now signed with the Spurs, Flagler’s future is bright, but Saturday was all about the kids. STORY 5: Study: Georgia Gwinnett College has made a $7 billion economic impact since its inception Georgia Gwinnett College isn’t just shaping minds—it’s driving dollars, too. Since 2007, GGC has pumped over $7 billion into the economy, according to a University System of Georgia study. Just last year? More than $558 million flowed into Gwinnett County and metro Atlanta, supporting nearly 3,800 jobs—on and off campus. With 14,000+ alumni living and working locally, GGC’s influence stretches far beyond its classrooms, building communities and preparing tomorrow’s leaders. We’ll be right back. Break: MONSTER JAM STORY 6: Let The Search Begin The Gwinnett County Board of Education is back at it—searching for yet another superintendent after firing two in just four years. It’s a mess, honestly. Who’s even going to want this job? And how do you find someone who can handle the chaos, the politics, and the sheer size of this district? This time, they’re slowing down. The board hired Alma Advisory Group for $99,840 to lead the search, promising community input through town halls, surveys, and focus groups. But critics are already talking. Some say the process feels predetermined, others worry about bias, and a few question if Alma’s track record is strong enough. Meanwhile, Interim Superintendent Al Taylor, a GCPS veteran, has quietly won over many with his steady leadership. Whoever takes the job will face big challenges: chronic absenteeism, behavior issues, budget scrutiny, and the ever-present pressure to improve academics. The board says they’ll have someone in place by the 2026 school year. But with so many eyes watching—and so much at stake—this hire feels like more than just filling a position. It’s about restoring trust, stability, and hope in a district that desperately needs all three. STORY 7: ART BEAT: Gwinnett Symphony announces 2025-26 concert schedule “Expect the Unexpected.” That’s the theme for the Gwinnett Symphony’s 2025-2026 season, and honestly? They’re not kidding. This year’s lineup is packed with everything from Copland to carols, Beethoven to the King of Pop. Classical purists, modern music lovers, and everyone in between—there’s something here for you. Kicking off Sept. 21, the “80th Anniversary World War 2 Victory Concert” at Atlanta’s Symphony Hall promises a powerhouse collaboration with the Atlanta International Symphony Orchestra. Think Copland’s Fanfare for the Common Man and Bernstein’s Candide Overture. Other highlights? Handel’s Messiah in November, a Christmas concert with Sleigh Ride (kid conductors included!), and a May finale featuring Elvis, Aretha, and MJ. Details at gwinnettsymphony.org. Don’t wait—tickets will go fast. We’ll have closing comments after this. Break 4: Ingles Markets 8 Signoff – Thanks again for hanging out with us on today’s Gwinnett Daily Post Podcast.
