The University of Tennessee is joining several other schools across the country in totally giving up on teaching our children, and instead offering a course on Taylor Swift.
The course is called Gender / Media (Taylor’s Version), and it launches in the fall. It will give students a comprehensive understanding of Taylor’s impact on celebrity and career strategies.
The professor says, quote, “We’ll talk about Taylor Swift from every possible angle.”
This week’s H&S Feed and Country Store Pet of the Week is “Gatsby”, a gorgeous 1 year old grey kitty who loves attention and would make any cat-lover a terrific companion! Gatsby is fully vetted, vaccinated, microchipped and ready to go to a loving home. And because Gatsby is the H&S Feed & Country Store Pet of the Week, his adoption fee is only $30!
If you’d like to set up an appointment to meet Gatsby or any of the pets at Stephen Memorial Animal Shelter, visit https://www.stephenmemorial.org/ and fill out an adoption application.

Morgan Wallen knows a thing or two about bars: throwing things from them and ending up behind them, most recently. His “This Bar & Tennessee Kitchen” is set to open up in Nashville later this year, but Morgan’s already looking past that – reportedly readying a second location in Las Vegas. According to the Las Vegas Review-Journal, Wallen is reportedly opening a restaurant on the Las Vegas Strip, which would presumably be another location of his “This Bar & Tennessee Kitchen.” The restaurant would occupy 10,000 square feet on the second and third floors of 63 Las Vegas, located at 3716 Las Vegas Blvd. South. A building permit filed for the space show the construction of a new “Vegas Country Music Restaurant,” and a permit has also been filed for the construction of an “ellipse rooftop balcony.” No word yet from Morgan’s people, but it appears his Vegas plans have been leaked.
Two weeks ago, Colt Ford suffered a heart attack after performing in Arizona. All we were told in the days after was that he was recovering, and that he was forced to cancel all his upcoming shows through the end of August. Now, we know more, from the man himself.
Yesterday, Colt updated fans on how he’s progressing after the incident. He also explained what exactly happened, and how close he was to dying.
Ford says that he was on his tour bus after the show, and that’s all he remembers until he woke up in a hospital bed surrounded by his fiancée and his son. He relays what he was told: that he collapsed, and was technically dead on his tour bus before being revived. He died again on the way to the hospital and was revived a second time. Eventually emergency surgery was done to put in three stents. And Colt believes he’s still here for a reason. “They brought me back, they saved my life. The Lord had more for me to do. I have more music to make, and hopefully some more differences to make in people’s life.”

For everyone that claims country music isn’t country music anymore, the defense calls to the stand Cody Johnson. In the country genre, in 2024, Cody is almost single-handedly keeping classic-sounding country and Texas swing music alive, while also keeping it contemporary. Case in point: Cody’s stellar rendition of the Willie Nelson/Waylon Jennings classic “Mamas Don’t Let Your Babies Grow Up To Be Cowboys,” recorded live at the 2023 ACM Awards, but officially released yesterday.
Two weeks after Morgan Wallen was arrested after allegedly hurling a chair off the top of “Chief’s” in Nashville, the singer has finally commented about the April 7 incident. In a statement shared Friday, Wallen addressed his arrest in a statement posted to his X account.
“I didn’t feel right publicly checking in until I made amends with some folks. I’ve touched base with Nashville law enforcement, my family, and the good people at Chief’s. I’m not proud of my behavior, and I accept responsibility,” he wrote. “I have the utmost respect for the officers working every day to keep us all safe. Regarding my tour, there will be no change.”
He did seem to say at least a little more about the incident Saturday night at his concert in Oxford, Mississippi. Stopping down between songs, Morgan told a story from his past that seemed to have some relevance to present day. “When I was a junior in high school, I almost got kicked off the team… I was a little rowdy back then. I guess I’m still a little rowdy now. But Coach Davis, man, he never gave up on me. And there’s been a lot of people in my life who never gave up on me. Some of ’em are in this building tonight, you guys included. I just wanted to shout out that part of my life with this right here. And since baseball had been such a huge part of my life, it was only right that we made a baseball song. so here it is, ”98 Braves.’”
