The nitty gritty from Music City one O three nine
The Maverick. So you know, Miranda Lambert excels as a
music maker, and she's fairly prolific at songwriting as well,
but Nan does her golf game needs some work, a
lot of work. Actually. Nonetheless, girls accepted a challenge and
is going to play in a huge celebrity golf tournament

(00:21):
later this month for a great cause. I played twenty
two holes of golf in my life and I'm playing
Crotta Cup this year. So we are on the road

Celebrity Ryder Cup September twenty sixth of the twenty eighth
on the historic Black Course of Bethpage State Park up
in Farmingdale, New York. Now, she's been trying to learn
the game from her husband, who's really good by the way,
Brendan McLaughlin. And she says that her paler Luke Bryant,
encouraged her to let fans in on her as she

(01:04):
tries to amp up her very novice game and play
in this tournament. I expect we'll hear more about that
as it draws closer now. Dirk s Bentley has been

over the weekend and asked fellow pilots to join him
in this Special Olympics Airlift, which mobilizes hundreds of civil

aircraft to transport Special Olympics athletes and coaches to the
twenty twenty six Special Olympics USA up in the Twin
Cities next June. Dirk says it's a great way as
a pilot to use aviation for good and speaking of

much Dirks and his wife.

We only sleep in the same room right now anymore.
I have three pillows after you positioned exactly the correct way.
I'm just thinking about the process of getting to fall asleep,
and all a sudden chill, Jark, I'm like, you gotta
be kidding me. You're already out, and so she'll move
a tiny bit. I feel it. So years ago I
decided to separate church and state, and I got rid
of I bet ive got two platform beds and two
box springs and two mattresses. I'm one Devey. She is

(02:13):
her debate. There's a clear line. You can see the
floor between her bed and mind. Because I'm just such
an animal. It's terrible.
