In case you haven't figured this out . . . Jaclyn is, for all practical purposes, a dumb blonde.  Of course, she's naturally a brunette, so I suppose it's fair to say she's a dumb brunette who aspires to be a dumb blonde.  Tuesday morning, she went to the restroom at The Grand Ole Opry and was "attacked" by an automatic toilet.  In her words . . . "it had a very aggressive premature

Two years ago at the Opry Plaza Party to kick off the CMA Music Festival, Jaclyn was 18 months pregnant.  In fact, I'm pretty certain that Carsyn was crowning here at the show that made country music famous.  See, Jaclyn and I brought cornhole boards down to Nashville and challenged folks to a little "friendly" competition.  Despite the fact that Jaclyn's stomach looked like something ou

For those of you who know me, you know that I love animals and basically claim to be Ace Ventura. All of my pets are rescues and I am currently proud papa to 2 dogs and 1 cat.  Dolly is a Bichon Frise who is ALWAYS up in a brother's grill.  My cat, Oprah, is deaf (which probably comes in rather handy.  My dogs are obnoxious and, let's be honest, I wrote the book on boisterous).  And Wilma is my r

Howdy, Gang!  Chad here.  I hope you've enjoyed my week-long interview series with our very own Music City U.S.A. gossip expert, Nashville Kat!  I have said this before (but it bears repeating) . . . I love this woman and the fact that we get to chat each weekday morning.  If you ask me, she is one of the BEST parts of The WBKR Waking Crew and one of my favorite people to work with.  I love chatt

As you guys know, Holiday World is #1 for family fun!  But I'm not sure I have ever had as much fun as I did last week when I took Sam the Intern over to Santa Claus and cut him loose at Holiday World!  We rode roller coasters, the bumper cars, the Liberty Launch and even had time to take in a friendly (or not-so friendly) game of Skee Ball!  And, the best part of it all, WE HAVE VIDEO!!!  Ladies

Hey, WBKR fans!!  I hope you've been enjoying my behind-the-scenes, tell-all interview with our Nashville gossip hound, Nashville Kat!  I keep kidding her and telling her that this is her E! True Hollywood Story!  LOL!!  In today's installment, the 4th in our series of 5, Nashville Kat talks about her favorite voices in country music, how she once got to "Whip It" with Devo, and her cha

Hey Nashville Kat fans!  I really hope you've been enjoying my exclusive interview with WBKR's very own Nashville gossip hound.  (Oh wait!  A "hound" is a dog!  Is it rude to refer to a Kat as a dog??)  In today's installment, Nashville Kat and I talk about her not-so "country" diet and some of her favorite country concert moments!

Howdy again!  Yesterday, I posted Part One of my interview with Nashville Kat, the WBKR Waking Crew's Nashville insider!  In that interview we chatted about her chance encounter with Barbara Walters and how star-struck she was when she met B.J. Thomas.  Kat also hinted about a brand new cookbook she's working on and in Part Two, we discuss it!  Feeling hungry?   You will be after you eavesdrop on

Hey, Gang!  Chad here!  One of my favorite parts of the WBKR Waking Crew is our Nashville insider, Nashville Kat!  She's a total blast and, like a "tidy" cat, she's always got the "scoop" for us.  Each morning around 7:40, she hacks up some of the juciest furballs about your favorite country music stars and shares them with Moon and me.  She's always insightful, hilarious and h

Earlier this week, the Red Cross visited the WBKR studios to conduct CPR training.  Dave Spencer and I hadn't been certified since way back in high school when we were required to get jiggy with Resusci Anne!   After completing our training (with these little guys who look like they escaped the BLUE MAN GROUP), we decided to share our new skills with YOU to demonstrate the importance of CPR and ho

Chad here!  The LEGENDARY LIVE concert Saturday was freakin' awesome!!  If you guys were out in the crowd, you know that Jaclyn, Lo Cash, Brett Eldredge, Jason Michael Carroll, Kellie Pickler, Rodney Atkins and Montgomery Gentry put on one heckuva show...

Chad was out at the International BBQ Festival taking in the sights and sampling some food. Chad stops by the Precious Blood BBQ Cooking Team's booth and the Little Ones Mobile Kitchen for a sampling of their Deep Fried Ding Dongs!
