Summary

Kathleen opens the show drinking a Neato Bandito from Deep Ellum Brewing Company. She reviews her weekend in Texas performing in Fort Worth and Houston. She watched a longhorn cattle drive at the Fort Worth Stockyards ate at Riscky’s Steakhouse and the Original Ninfa’s, and had the opportunity to meet Mattress Mack at his original Gallery Furniture location in Houston.

QUEEN NEWS: Kathleen reports that Dolly Parton has announced a global first-listen fan event for her Rockstar album in theatres Nov 15th and also teaming up with Cracker Barrel on a Rockstar release. Tanya Tucker has finally been inducted into the Country Music Hall of Fame, and Taylor Swift’s “1989 – Taylor’s Version” album’s release will be the biggest release of 2023.

“GOOD BAD FOOD”: In her quest for delicious not-so-nutritious food, Kathleen samples Lonestar Popcorn, Rudy’s Original Texas BBQ Sauce, Uncle Dave’s Kettle Korn, and Limited Edition Red Velvet Oreo Cookies.

UPDATES: Kathleen gives updates on Mattress Mack’s 2023 World Series bet, banks backing Elon’s Twitter purchase expect to lost $2B on the deal, and FTX founder Sam Bankman-Fried completely cracks on the stand.

“HOLY SHIT THEY FOUND IT”: Kathleen is amazed to read about the discovery of Noah’s Ark in Turkey, and ancient face carvings are exposed as Amazon water level drops to record lows.

FRONT PAGE PUB NEWS: Kathleen shares articles on Christine McVie’s estate and Pat Benatar selling their music catalogs, UFC contracts a sponsorship deal with Bud Light, United Airlines implements a new boarding process, Sears reopens a single store in a California mall, Travis Kelce releases new KC style bbq meals at Walmart, Annika Sorenstam is the newest member at Augusta National, and a CBC investigation says Canadian folk icon Buffy Sainte-Marie has falsely claimed her native identity.
