He was a prominent figure of the outlaw country movement in the '70s, but also drew significant criticism, especially for the racist music he released in the early '80s.

I know I've said this a gazillion times, but it's always true. Increasingly, it seems like there's just no way to take everything in during one vacation in the Smoky Mountains region of East Tennessee. Pigeon Forge, Gatlinburg, and Sevierville always seem to be announcing something new. Their tourism commissions must be popping champagne corks all the time. Next summer, after three years of hold-ups, the NERF Action Xperience will make its debut in Pigeon Forge.

Are you a foodie road tripper? It's someone like me who travels to certain destinations because of the food. Yes, I'm a proud foodie road tripper.

Since I spend more time in Kentucky and Indiana than anywhere else, that's where I've narrowed my focus. So let's get started.

A big reason I'm always interested is because my home state of Kentucky always pops up somewhere, and this year is no exception.

Joe Nichols' hot take on AI and auto-tune in country music isn't quite what you'd expect from a devoted traditionalist. He's not against either one. The ripple effects of using computers to alter songs and vocals are what worries him. Joe Nichols dropped a new song called "Say La V" this week. It's from a new album due in early 2027. The "Sunny and 75" singer talked to Taste of Country Nights host Evan Paul. In the studio, Nichols says auto-tune is a time saver. AI software like Suno can be, too.
