Sometimes I catch myself watching my children like I’m already missing them. Then I get this overwhelming urge to cry because time is moving through them faster than I can catch it. Like trying to memorize a dream while you’re still inside it & already waking up. And one day you’ll pick them up with mysteriously sticky fingers & cheeks & it’ll be the last time…but neither of you will know it’s the last time. That’s how most endings in life happen too. Always disguised as ordinary days. So answer the endless questions, tie the shoes twice, build the fort, read the bedtime story & give them your attention like it’s the only thing in the world that matters, because to them, it is. These are the moments & sounds you’ll one day search for in a house that no longer makes them. And you’ll realize you were holding forever in your arms all along, even while you thought it was just today.

@catturd2 Check me, but I'm pretty sure @RepThomasMassie , whom you have tried to eviscerate has.

I’ve never been so disgusted in my life as when I read the thousands of messages, in the Epstein files, between Steve Bannon and Jeffery Epstein. Then I was even more disgusted again, when everyone on his payroll circled the wagons and pretended it didn’t exist. We truly have some fake evil demons pretending to be on our side. I’m I the only one who sees this? I’m I the only one who is willing to call these pathetic grifters? Am I the only one?

@PhilHollowayEsq What in the world? Why would someone do that to themselves?!?

This should go without saying, but don’t do this to yourself If you don’t have natural freckles, you’re just going to look foolish

@shipwreckshow Beautiful!!

It's going to be very cold here for the next couple days. I am currently waiting on grocery pick up and plan to spend the rest of today cleaning and making my home more cozy to ride out the remaining dark winter days. I already have beef stew on the menu and some new candles to light but what are some things ya'll do to feel more.. grounded? I'm impatiently waiting for spring..🌸

@SamanthaDGodwin Amen!

And I did! 😂😎mom is a way better title anyways

@TennesseeJet @charliekirk11 @TPUSA Beautiful!

New Song - The Senseless Death of Charlie Kirk @charliekirk11 @TPUSA

Congrats to Bell County Kentucky’s own, Bill Taylor. Love this. We interviewed Bill on The Songwriter. That episode will drop via @JammNationApp.

@WontQuitEver I get a lump in my throat at most stuff from the 80s. I guess it's sort of home. It's a time and a place that I miss.

It took 13.5 hrs, but all my work is done!!! Just popped a top and planning to front porch sit, and listen to 80’s music. I love lots of different music, but I think the 80’s stuff is the most fun to listen to…it really puts you in a good mood 💯

@bradluttrell I hate comparisons as well but sometimes it's hard not to

This has some great songwriting on it. Jesse Welles fans should check it out—similar lyrically at times. I hate comparisons but find they help people say "Oh, OK I'll listen now." Check out Ron Pope.

@bradluttrell @LaurelCoveFest This was the first year I wasn't at LC and now I am even sadder! NJ is my fav.

Nicholas Jamerson played the set of a lifetime at @LaurelCoveFest. I'm listening to him sing "Hindman" from the Laurel Cove 2025 set, and after thinking about it for the last few days, I think that was the best set I've ever seen him play. I've seen him many, many times. Not as many as @BCarpenter336, but many. If you were there, you know what I'm saying though. That crowd was electric and is the best I've ever seen the creekside stage (it felt very akin to Cole Chaney's late night set that went to 1:30 am), which means it was one of the best in Laurel Cove history. It felt like a big tent revival as we all sang along to every single song. Nick was just so emotional and appreciative of it all. I don't know that it's productive to try and rank musical experiences, but seeing our Kentucky boy play to that crowd, in that moment, was probably one of my favorite music experiences of my life. Cheers to the King. 🐐 👑

@Smuphy I LOVE that song so very much

11/10 song. Probably in my top 3 Sturgill songs.

@REMASCULATE Litton's Knoxville, Tn!

What is the best burger from a fast food, sit down or mom and pop restaurant?

@marinadepodcast @bradluttrell I agree! JM is a phenomenal song writer. Zach is gifted as well. To me it's apples to oranges but many do like comparisons.

@leslierisner @bradluttrell I steer clear of ego beefs as well. Not interested in interpersonal drama and rarely engage as much as I have today. Just don’t think there’s a comparison. John Moreland is a generational songwriter, singer, and performer. And his sense of melody is second to few.

LOL. Zach Bryan said “and I’ll take my listeners back, thank you very much.”

@bradluttrell @marinadepodcast I don't get into these beefs enough to care or even begin to understand the male ego but I have to agree that it's two different styles, differing content. I've been to numerous ZB concerts, before stadiums, they were fun, melodic. I've only been to one JM and it was not.

@marinadepodcast I would argue Moreland writes a different style better. I prefer Zach’s writing to Moreland. Moreland is often too dense for my taste and is nowhere near the melody writer Zach is. John’s a great writer, not knocking him but I’d never say “writes circles” around Zach.

@Smokahontas2024 @ChrisDJackson @AndyBeshearKY Dear Lord, if it's any example of how he ran this state during the COVID lockdowns as how he would lead as president yall better flee!!!

Open to a presidential run”? @AndyBeshearKY, are you serious? You say you “don’t want to leave a broken country” to your kids but what about the broken state you and your father have already left to ours? Let’s not sugarcoat it: Steve Beshear left Kentucky stuck at the bottom of every national ranking that matters. Under his watch, we stayed among the worst in education. Generations of kids grew up in underfunded schools, some without textbooks, internet, or even reliable teachers. And when it came to jobs and opportunity? Entire regions especially in Eastern Kentucky were left behind, buried in poverty while your administration turned a blind eye. Fast forward to now, and not much has changed under your leadership either. Kentucky still ranks near the bottom in education. Our kids deserve better but they’re still getting shortchanged. We’re one of the poorest states in the nation. We lead in overdose deaths, food insecurity, and people working full-time jobs who still can’t make ends meet. Now you’re out here floating a presidential run like you’ve solved all that? If you think you’re the one to “bring the nation together,” maybe start by bringing opportunity and real progress to the Kentuckians still waiting for it. We don’t need more speeches. We need results and we’re still waiting.

🚨 BREAKING: @AndyBeshearKY Open to Presidential Run “I don't want to leave a broken country to my kids. So if I'm somebody who can bring this nation together, hopefully find some common ground, it's something I would consider."

@Laudrup11_ @49winchester 🙌

@49winchester Acknowledged. Needs to be back in the setlist rotation 🙏

Top 3? Thoughts?

@WontQuitEver Never stop fighting, never stop preaching the truth!

@w_terrence More importantly, what does scripture say about it?

A tarot reader once offered me a reading and a spiritual cleansing. But I said no, it didn’t feel right. I couldn’t do it What do you guys think about Tarot Readings? Do you think it’s a form a witchcraft / Demonic
