About this listen

Johnny B, Jay Harper, and Jim McCarthy dive into their most memorable celebrity encounters from decades in radio, records, and concert production.

You’ll hear stories about:

  • The gherm-iest radio promo guy in a stained satin jacket
  • Delivering a giant get‑well card to Amy Grant in a dying station vehicle
  • Glen Campbell shredding in an Opry dressing room and cracking jokes at the urinal
  • A Steve Earle meeting that went from dream chat to guarded on‑air interview
  • Hank Thompson’s rough day and sincere later apology
  • Why Raul Malo and The Mavericks should have been massive
  • Boarding Donald Trump’s private plane during the 2016 campaign
  • Jerry Lee Lewis at the Stockyard, an impatient Kenny Rogers backstage,
    Trace Adkins calling in after a rant, plus memories of Jimmy Dean, Roy Clark, and more


A funny, honest look at how fame collides with real human moods—and why backstage is usually the worst place to watch a show.
