WYNN - The Mega Star Series - Toby Keith
Haven't done a Mega Series profile in a while, and Toby Keith is just the artist to take us back to that pedestal. (He also just had a birthday July 8). When he broke onto the charts he was instantly accepted as a hit maker, and through the 1990's had solid chart success. But the 90's for Keith were just a mere warm up for the early 2000's when he went on a number one tear that is rare and enviable.

WYNN - Country Music Memory Lane - Mark Chesnutt
Chad asked me this week about his favorite growing up, Mark Chesnutt. He was a favorite of mine too. It has long been debated about the 1990's, the decade of Garth, Clint, Alan Jackson, George Strait, McGraw, Faith, Patty Loveless, Toby Keith, Shania and other mega stars, what about artists like Chesnutt, Doug Stone, Tracy Byrd, Tracy Lawrence, Joe Diffie and others? Were they the product of the others gigantic success? OR would they have led the charge in a different time?

Day Laborers Feel Pandemic Pain as Jobs Dry Up
BERKELEY, CALIF. - Before the coronavirus pandemic began, Julio Castro’s days began at 6:30 a.m. with a long walk to the parking lot of a Home Depot, hoping someone would hire him to do jobs like yard work or painting.
