Hi, I'm Tony Mantor, and welcome to today's episode of Why Not Me the World.

We're recording live at the Nashville Palace for a special remote podcast, unscripted, unedited, and full of heart.

Tonight's episode supports an acoustic evening for autism, a show happening right here this evening.

We're thrilled to bring you this country experience, and I hope you enjoy it as much as we're

enjoying sharing it with you. We've got two fantastic guests join us tonight. This is week number two

out of three that I'll be featuring two guests per episode to dive into everything we're covering right here tonight.

Thanks for tuning in. Okay, I'm here with Daryl Worley. Thanks for coming on. Man, yeah, I'm glad to

to be on here and to hear what all the good work you're doing. That's awesome. Well, I appreciate it.

So we're here at the Nashville Palace, and we're going to do a concert tonight for autism.

What led you to be part of this?

Years ago, we had a couple of friends, and they had a child was born autistic and that was kind of

started the whole thing for me I so anything that came along not too long after

that I wound up doing this show down on Broadway every year at a one of the one of the bars down there and we would have this big benefit

show and bring in all kinds of artists and songwriters for cystic fibrosis.

Oh, okay.
