TAKE #1: First Targets for Cuts Under DOGE

Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy released. Take a look and see if you agree. Or if anyone could possibly disagree.

Well, you can always find liberals in Washington, DC, who actually believe the government isn’t wasting money and are opposed to DOGE. But Fox News discovered a way to convince some of them: tell them what their tax money is actually being spent on.

After they learned that they were footing the bill for things like a $1 million grant to study whether cocaine makes quail more promiscuous, even they started to see that maybe DOGE is a good idea.

TAKE #2: Basses and Guitars

I have a great last-minute gift idea for the New Year — the book “Basses and Guitars” written by Willie G. Moseley. The veteran writer and editor of Vintage Guitar Magazine wrote this all about the guitars in my personal collection and the stories behind them.

Even if you’re not a guitar owner or player, you’ll enjoy the stories of these musical instruments and how many of them shaped my life. It’s filled with full-color photos that help tell the stories behind the instruments.

There are quite a few stories about Tre Corley and the Music City Connection and how the show has factored into my musical life. Get it now at:
