Craig Wayne Boyd is on That Nashville Girl — and he brought his next big hit with him.

From winning The Voice to building a global touring career, Craig’s journey is anything but typical. And in this episode, he gets real about everything it took to get here — the setbacks, the resets, and the moments that could’ve ended it all.

We get into:

• His early days chasing a Nashville dream that didn’t come easy
• What really happens after you win The Voice
• Losing deals, starting over, and choosing to keep going anyway
• Life now — touring internationally, raising five kids, and doing it all on his terms

And then… the moment.

Craig introduces his brand new single “She Haw” (out June 5), inspired by his wife Taylor — who also joins us for a special appearance that makes this episode even more fun.

This one is part story, part behind-the-scenes, and part “you’re hearing it here before everyone else.”

Trust me — you’re going to have this song on repeat all summer.

Michael Oher’s story has been told before — in books, headlines, and of course, The Blind Side. But in this episode, Michael tells us what matters most to him now: the work he’s doing right here in Nashville through the Oher Foundation.

As a Nashville resident, Michael isn’t just lending his name to a cause — he’s building something for the kids, families, and future of this community. Ahead of the foundation’s 10-year anniversary celebration on May 21 at the National Museum of African American Music, we sat down to talk about education, mentorship, community, and why every kid deserves someone in their corner.

We talk about the mindset that helped him keep going when life gave him every reason not to, why he believes education is “real currency,” how Nashville became part of this next chapter, and why showing up for the next generation matters — whether you’re a Super Bowl champion, a teacher, a mentor, or just someone willing to care.

Yes, you may know Michael Oher from The Blind Side. But this conversation is about the man behind the story — and the legacy he’s building now in Nashville.

If you love Brandi Carlile and Stephen Wilson, Jr. make room on your playlists for your new obsession, Bre Kennedy.

I was lucky enough to hear Bre Kennedy when she was opening for Stephen Wilson, Jr. at The Pageant in St. Louis. I turned to my friend and said, "I have to have her on my podcast!" Fast forward a week, and she was sitting across from me. We were instant friends. We were kindred spirits. We were bonded by our love of lyrics, artistry, and something we all know -- grief.

In this episode, we talk about all of it:

* What it feels like to walk out on stage with just a guitar
* How to keep going when you lose someone so close that they are your "North Star"
* Opening for Stephen Wilson, Jr (and having him open for you)
* and my moment of clarity when I realize why I was so instantly obsessed with Bre's voice

You'll watch this one on the edge of your seat -- and somehow still feel completely comfortable. That's how I felt sitting with Bre Kennedy.

And then you'll go download her music, including her new album The Alchemist, while checking her tour dates because you'll know you can't miss a show.

Trust me when I tell you that this is one to watch...you'll be able to say you knew her before the entire world was talking about her.
