The 3rd Shift with Brett Alan

Luke Bryan and Luke Combs haven't announced any plans to perform at the 2026 CMAs, but we've got a theory they're planning something.

Max McNown's Grand Ole Opry debut nearly didn't happen. His car broke down in the wrong parking lot, and he was sweating through his pearl snap shirt waiting for a tow.

Stella Lefty's 'Boston' almost became a dance track. The faster version was so bad that she's hoping nobody ever hears it.

Luke Bryan's dropping a new album September 18th, and his own kids basically couldn't care less about hearing it early.

Carrie Underwood remembers Dolly Parton as more than a musical legend, but as someone who showed the world how to stay gracious no matter what.

Scotty McCreery keeps his backstage demands refreshingly simple. A PB&J sandwich, cold beer, and oatmeal basically cover it.

Kenny Chesney's new song came straight from a 'Ted Lasso' pep talk about never letting the past haunt you.

Luke Bryan opened up about what Dolly Parton meant to him, wishing he'd had just five minutes to tell her the truth.

Dolly never cut the line at her own theme park. She waited like everyone else because fairness mattered more than fame.
