Jelly Roll officially unfurled the tracklist of his upcoming Beautifully Broken album on Tuesday (Oct. 8), and as expected, it's a massive project with 22 songs in total. Fans have heard a couple of those songs already, like the album's lead single "I Am Not Okay," "Liar" and his recently-released "Winning Streak." But the large majority of the tracklist is, as yet, unheard.

In her new posthumous memoir, From Here to the Great Unknown, Lisa Marie Presley shares the full scope of a devastating opioid addiction battle she fought after the birth of her twin daughters in 2008. Presley says that her drug use was "recreational" in the beginning, according to a book...

It's the most wonderful time of the year! Little Debbie Christmas Tree Cakes are officially coming back!. Nothing says "Merry Christmas" quite like Little Debbie Christmas Tree Cakes. It's been a staple of the holiday season for years. Each year, millions anticipate the release of these delectable treats. Little Debbie never really tells us when they will be available, but we know they come out sometime after Halloween. However, this year, they are out a little earlier...so it's only fitting that I share this video:

Even though I love anything related to aliens and UFO sightings, I can’t say I’d want to be abducted by a spaceship!. When it comes to abductions, it seems like consent is rarely a part of the equation. Reports of people believing they’ve been taken aboard a spacecraft often come with hazy memories and a sense of lost time. Many describe lingering effects like unusual marks on their bodies, changes in behavior, and recurring nightmares.

There's a popular guy on TikTok who claims he is a time traveler from the future and he's predicting that the super-volcano under Yellowstone National Park will erupt resulting in destruction as far east as Missouri and Illinois. He even names the date it will happen, but I'll explain why you shouldn't lose any sleep over his prediction.

I actually saw my first woolly worm of 2024 way back in May. At the time, I looked into what, if anything, it means about our weather if you see one in spring. I found nothing. In other words, "It means you saw a woolly worm in spring. Next?" I...

How often have you had a random encounter with a celebrity? David Letterman used to call them "brushes with greatness." While I have met several in meet & greet scenarios backstage at concerts or at Country Radio Seminars in Nashville, those are really all planned and don't count. Don't get me wrong--I enjoyed every one of them. But it's so much more fun to just HAPPEN upon a big star you didn't expect to see.

I have seen something close to what people envision when they hear the word "hellscape." I was in eastern Arizona in 2015 and saw what was left from the devastating wildfires that had happened in 2011—dead, barren trees as far as the eye could see. It was humbling AND...

There's a big difference between an isolated cold night and the time when the weather takes a turn into serious freezing territory. The question of when it will happen in Illinois depends heavily on where you live within the state. My curiosity about the downturn into freezing temperatures began when...

Okay, so we're now officially into fall as of last Sunday, September 22nd. There are still lawns to be mowed, there are still flowers blooming, and there are still tiny little hummingbirds visiting those flowers and hummingbird feeders...but how much longer?. Illinois has one, and only one, breeding species of...

Get ready to party like it’s the 80s again! Bret Michaels is returning to French Lick Resort in 2025 with his electrifying Parti-Gras 2.0 show. This time, he’s cranking things up a notch by bringing along heavy metal legend Dee Snider for a night filled with unforgettable hits.

Over the past week or so, we've been getting a small taste of what fall feels like, especially at night. When the calendar flips over into September like it just did, we all know it's just a matter of time before the leaves on trees throughout Northern Illinois start to make that colorful change.

This special event not only celebrates the department's milestone anniversary but also wraps up Fire Prevention Week - making it the perfect opportunity to learn about fire safety while honoring the brave men and women who protect our community.

NFL players are great at football, but could some of them have a hidden singing talent?. Not these members of the Pittsburgh Steelers and Dallas Cowboys, who stepped up and did their best Carrie Underwood impressions. Last Sunday night, the Steelers hosted the Cowboys in one of the most anticipated regular season matchups of the early season.

Pizza Hut plans to serve up a million free pizzas as it honors one of its longest running promotions that encourages kids to read. But it's not just about the kids this time. Sometime in 1984, Pizza Hut launched its own reading program called Book It! The idea was to encourage school-age kids to read books and earn free pizza.

Lainey Wilson and her boyfriend Devlin "Duck" Hodges are a few years into their relationship now, and they seem happier than ever. She speaks very highly of her man, even bragging about his new career on Taste of Country Nights recently, and the two are adorable with one another on the rare occasion that they are spotted together.

Spirit Halloween is getting into a new spirit this year — the Christmas spirit. The retail popup has announced plans to test out a Christmas-themed store, aptly called Spirit Christmas. Similar to its spooky counterpart, the jolly new concept will occupy vacant buildings across the nation to bring shoppers...

If you have ever attended the West Side Nut Club Fall Festival in Evansville and wondered if you can legally drink while you are out on Franklin Street, we've got the answer. Like most states, Indiana has many laws regulating the sale, consumption, and transportation of alcohol. For example, it is illegal to sell or transfer alcohol to anyone under the legal drinking age of 21. It is also illegal to have an open container of alcohol in the interior cabin of a vehicle.

I have no doubt that the meteorologists at The Weather Channel know what they're doing, but I'd like them to consider a recount. They've just predicted the first snow of the season in Illinois and it's sooner than you might think. The Weather Channel used some science (and some guessing)...

It happens every year: Spirit Halloween stores takeover vacant commercial buildings for a month or two, and then move right back out at the end of October. They isn't much of an incentive for the stores to stick around longer than Oct. 31. This year, however, Spirit has different plans...
