The Jesus Scene and Other Nashville Miracles
2026/10/07
Christa Pike is conscious and speaking less than a week after being executed, twice, by the State. Braden and Betsy briefly bring everyone up to speed on this medically unprecedented turn of events. Then Kid Rock turns beer into water in his new gospel rock video. They then hype some ACTUAL music and settle into a discussion of what makes a "scene" and how hard it is to have a scene when no one can afford to live here.

RIP Dolly
2026/08/26
Betsy and Braden pay their respects to Dolly. How many other Tennesseans have had the impact Dolly Parton had? We try to figure out which 10 Commandments are being used at school. What type of development is happening in White's Creek? There is one datacenter question NOT being asked. And Southern tropes sadly still exist - even from well-meaning intentions.

Nashville: Hot Temps, Hot Topics, Hot to Trot
2026/08/12
Betsy and Braden discuss the Scene's cover story and the benefits of shade, both for city cooling and for skin health. Then they discuss the pros and cons of Marsha Blackburn's speech after her primary win. Pros: She set some goals. Cons: Braden was able to give examples of all the ways Blackburn has already undermined those goals through her voting record.
