Oh, The Hey everybody welcome to another episode of Beyond The Blinds as always it's me Kelly Williams and Troy Mciti

0:30.3

And this week I am just giddy to talk about the Chicks versus America because this has been going on since 2003 and I feel like people are still not like either aware of what actually happened or they've forgotten about it and they're like oh yeah didn't they say they like wanted to kill George Bush or something?

0:50.0

Or they're like planted their feet and they're like they deserved it

0:54.0

fuck those bit and I mean it's like people are still trying to like ride this wave

0:59.0

it's like girl like get off the surfboard like oh my god and there's a question I'll never forget from our first

1:05.0

Philly show and someone was like who was canceled but they didn't deserve to be canceled

1:09.4

and I think both of us said actually Simpson in like looking back I wish I said the

1:14.0

checks. Yeah because what they dealt with is like I mean I'll probably say this in

1:17.8

2:25.0

with the whole Morgan Wallin scandal.

2:27.3

And I basically just got really mad that the chicks

2:30.5

are basically still canceled in country music whereas Morgan Wallin shot to

2:35.4

number one for like 70 weeks. Yeah and it's wild that they're like even allowed to

2:41.6

this is a weird thing to say but it's like

2:43.2

crazy that they're allowed to even be canceled given how many people now know how

2:47.8

unfair this was and the fact that like like country music and like country radio still feels like they can
