Maybe I missed it initially because I live in UK? In any case I am angry & physically sick that I was not on this show. It’s so funny I do not know what to do, other than evangelize.
will i survive influencers having opinions about country music
This was the alternate subtitle of Her Country actually
Kat Abughazaleh@katmabu.bsky.social · 3mo agoYou don’t hate country music, you just hate the same 100 songs of bootlicking corporatized trash about saluting the flag while drinking a beer in your truck at a football game next to your pretty silent wife in daisy dukes who also knows how to fish.
