Uncle Kracker called us this morning to talk about his 49 city tour that he just got done doing with Ty Stone and Sonja Lee, he said he met Sonja on tour with Kenny Chesney, Kracker says she is just the sweetest woman with an amazing voice.

Kracker says he met Ty Stone after Ty was signed by Kid Rock years ago, Ty and him are best buds and when they are touring together he doesn’t like having to go on stage after Ty because he is just so good.

Cledus told Uncle Kracker that he killed it last year with Kenny Chesney at Raymond James Stadium, this Sunday Uncle Kracker will be playing at the Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Casino’s, Hard Rock Cafe in Tampa, he tells us a little about his Music Education Foundation that is to help keep music going in the school system.

Veronica brought up to him that the Bratwurst Festival that he is playing in Ohio in August, the festival has some controversy about not serving beer at the show, they’re even having counsel meetings to decide whether they will serve beer or not, Kracker jokes around by saying how can you have a bratwurst festival without beer.

Uncle Kracker is best known for his songs, ”Smile” and “Good To Be Me,” and being on tour with Kenny Chesney.

Glee has a reputation for dealing with the tough issues teens and parents face, always bringing them to the forefront. This episode was no exception as it dealt with abuse and bullying, and Taylor Swift’s “Mean” was a sure and appropriate fit.

In a nutshell, here’s a quick set-up for the video performance.

Coach Beiste had finally owned up to the fact that her black eye wasn’t the result of sparring with a punching bag, and that her new husband had hit her. Of course, he promised it won’t ever happen again. She told her husband, Cooter (Eric Bruskotter) that she’s “done,” sets her ring on the table when Cooter explodes, asking her, “Who will love you now?” “Me,” she tells him, and walks out.

Puck is failing Geography, may not graduate, and just went Dumpster diving after being ganged up on by ‘Rick the Stick’ and his hockey buddies. Puck tries to keep his cool, while Rick points out that “You won’t be graduating” and “you’re gonna turn into that older guy who tries to pick up high school girls at the convenience store, a true ‘Lima Loser.’”

Coach Beiste breaks up the fight and hauls Puck into the locker room. Behind the closed doors of that locker room, Puck blows up, yelling about how he feels like a joke, a failure, every day of his life. How his dad must be really proud of him now, because he turned out ‘just like him.’ He breaks down into tears, and apologizes to Beiste. She wraps her arms around him and says, “You and me are badasses. No one thinks anything hurts us, but it does.”

Chuck also talked to her about the John Travolta massage scandal, what does she think, is it true? I mean the first person to file a claim couldn’t even get the date of the incident right!!
Chuck heard a rumor about NBC’s “The Voice” and how they may be changing  judges, is this true, had Brooke Anderson heard of the possible switch.

It happened on Gandy Blvd in St. Petersburg, glass flew everywhere, there was even glass in the back seat of his car, that’s how hard the hood hit his windshield.

The car is now at Master Collision after being towed there by American Towing and Trasport.

We are just thankful this did not happen at 4;30 in the afternoon during rush hour traffic, instead it happened around 4:20 in the morning when there are basically no cars on the road.

Craig has made appearances on Lifetime’s hit series “Army Wives” where he played himself. Morgan said that he wanted to get into more acting and was hopeful to land a gig on a big network.

“I just did a reading for a show that I hope to make an announcement this week, because it’s a big deal–a TV show on a major channel, ” the country crooner told WQYK.

This opportunity would allow Morgan to show off his acting chops and allow him to play a part other than himself. He read for the part of a medical examiner, but Morgan has specific hopes for his character’s future.

“I’m hoping that the medical examiner turns into a reoccurring role, and that I start having a relationship with this one person, and then she finds out that I’m a serial killer!”

The Tennessee native also talked about hunting Muflon rams in Hawaii. Hawaii is one of the few places that allows people to hunt the rams free range. Craig set the new record for hunting the Spanish goat when he killed a big one with a cross bow.

Other than his blooming acting career Morgan has heard and given high praise for his latest album This Ole Boy. He said that he and his label are having a lot of fun, and that allowed him to let loose in the studio and create such a good product.

“taking that (energy) in the studio I’ve made one of the best record I’ve ever made. I’ve even said it may be the best one I’ll ever make.”

Kraus stopped by for a visit with the Dr. Don show at CBS station WYCD in Detroit.

She noted that her “first concert when I was five, was Alan Jackson.” When asked what artists she had met recently, she responded with “Jake Owen, I just met a couple months ago.” Dr. Don quickly added with a laugh, “You should have met him a little sooner, you could have interrupted a wedding.” Kristina explained the tweet she sent out when she found out that Jake was engaged, saying “never again will theses ruby red lips sip on sweet tea for you.” She laughed saying “you were supposed to wait. He could have put a ring on it.“

Jake Owen is engaged and not to me i might add! Never again will theses #RubyRedLips sip on sweet tea for u! #heartbroken—

She is not dwelling on the missed connection though. She is currently obsessed with Kip Moore’s latest song, “Something Bout a Truck.” She enthusiastically said she’s “obsessed with it. I love him. He’s a doll,” and she sends “glitter kisses to Kip.”

Glitter kisses is Kristina’s way of “telling you I love tons. Better that X’s and O’s.“

You can catch Kristina on Southern Nights on Saturdays at 10pm when it airs on CMT.
