Thanks! I was worried that the picture I used was AI, and so I deleted it and made a post with the IU game poster instead, lol. 🙂

Fun fact: “Lost in This Moment” was Big & Rich’s only number one hit on the Billboard Country Airplay chart, in 2007…a full FOUR years after “Save a Horse, Ride a Cowboy” only peaked at number 11 on the EXACT same chart. Because as always: Charts are weird, man. 🤷‍♀️

New pod! @acollierastro.bsky.social wanted to do an episode about '90s country but unfortunately I made her do this instead. (I had fun at least!) We argue over the two early indicators of bro-country, "She Thinks My Tractor's Sexy" by Kenny Chesney vs. "Save a Horse (Ride a Cowboy) by Big & Rich

I’m from Southern Maryland in an area out in the country, so it’s somewhere you’re MUCH more likely to run into that song. It’s stupid, but now that I’m older I recognize that it’s stupid on purpose. 🙂

“Save a Horse, Ride a Cowboy” is an all time country banger. I’m not saying I’m PROUD that I love it, just that it is what it is. 🤷‍♀️

John Rich is trash, but “Save a Horse, Ride a Cowboy” is an all time country jam. I said what I said. I don’t mind Kenny Chesney but I DESPISE “She Thinks My Tractor’s Sexy.” Blech. 😖

Tell everyone who tries to tell you it’s too late to try something new to kiss your ass, even if it’s under your breath, and do it anyway. Chances are, they are telling on themselves by saying they don’t think THEY could do it themselves because they think THEY’RE too old. 💯

i have a hard time believing he was that close to the guy and was unaware of his non-faith-related beliefs

i’m not saying he’s necessarily also a racist, xenophobic misogynist but he’s at least willing to hang out with one and that tells me all i need to know

“faith” seems like a convenient cover

Matt Shaw just spoke on decision to miss Cubs game Sunday to attend Charlie Kirk's memorial in AZ. He was invited by Kirk's wife Erika.

Shaw said they met in offseason while living in same apt complex, they bonded over faith & Kirk being big Cubs fan. Shaw said Kirk would text him after every game.
