Jelly Roll just hit a lifelong dream. During “The Joe Rogan Experience,” Craig Morgan appeared in a video and officially invited him to join the Grand Ole Opry.
Jelly got emotional as Joe played a clip of his past Opry performance and he talked about how Craig’s song “Almost Home” helped him in jail. When Craig delivered the big line, Jelly broke down, ripped off his headphones, and hugged Joe.
A full-circle moment for Jelly Roll — and a huge congrats on joining the Opry.

According to “Whiskey Riff”, the three worst country songs of 2025 are:
Number 1: “Oil Money” by Graham Barham.
Number 2: “2 Pair” by Kane Brown.
Number 3: “Cowgirl” by Parmalee.
Morgan Wallen was just named Billboard’s Top Artist of 2025, and the internet has thoughts. Someone even posted, “I don’t know a single person who listens to Morgan Wallen.”
But the numbers say otherwise. His album “I’m The Problem” was Apple Music’s most-streamed album worldwide, Spotify’s #1 in the U.S., and Billboard’s Top Country Album. When it dropped, he charted 37 songs on the Hot 100 in one week. He’s also the first country artist to hit #1 since Taylor Swift in 2009.
Love him or not, he still beat out T Swift, Sabrina Carpenter, and Kendrick Lamar this year . . . so somebody’s listening.
Trisha Yearwood is all about holiday traditions. Since she and Garth Brooks married on December 10th, December is basically one big celebration at their house.
One family rule: the Christmas tree only goes up when everyone’s together — and Trisha says that’s her favorite part. Once it’s up, it stays up through January, as long as it’s down before Garth’s birthday in February.
She also throws a yearly cookie party where everyone brings a childhood recipe.
