$62 at Taco Bell?! The Guys Debate What Everything Costs Now

Can politics get in the way of making music? Tully and KLo share experiences they say affected interview opportunities and songwriting collaborations in Nashville.

Kurt Allison, Tully Kennedy, Kelley Lovelace, and Neil Thrasher discuss speaking openly, working with people who disagree, and whether a writing session should come down to one thing: making a great song.

The guys also weigh in on cancel culture, Shane Gillis, Morgan Wallen, and their own experience with “Try That in a Small Town.”

There’s plenty of lighter conversation, too: Neil recounts a memorable evening at John Rich’s house, a movie outing sparks a debate about everyday prices, and KLo reveals a $62 Taco Bell order—for two people.

Plus: memories from Camp Roberts, a debate about country music at the Super Bowl, and “If They Weren’t Famous,” featuring the imaginary day jobs of Garth Brooks.

YOUR TURN:

Can you work creatively with someone whose politics are completely different from yours? What makes it work—or gets in the way?
