On Aug. 26, 2006, Barrel Boy had yet to don a barrel. He was in his early 20s and came to work at iHeartMedia KNIX Phoenix (102.5), hopelessly hungover after a night of heavy drinking at a bowling alley. Barrel and friends were celebrating the first night of Tim McGraw and Faith Hill’s “Soul 2 Soul Tour” doubleheader in Phoenix. His PD sent him home, told him to pull himself together and return to cover the second shift. Retribution, he said, was in order. Barrel Boy wasn’t in trouble, but the PD wanted to have some fun at his expense. (Continued on page 4) COUNTRY INSIDER TOP 5: WUBL’s Angie Ward: From College Radio To Country Radio Hall of Fame.

  • Junto Love Edition.Pdf
    Volume 2 Issue 1 February 2019 “I had formed most of my ingenious acquaintances into a club for mental improvement called the Junto” Cover Story The Junto February 2019 A line from the world’s most famous love story seemed fitting for our Love Edition. Ro- meo and Juliet reminds us that life is short and you have to take the time to love and to live when the opportunity is given because you never know how long it might last. Don’t let other people get in your way and don’t try and fake your death. It won’t end well. 1 People The Junto February 2019 How To Love Yourself Ally Fuller - Copy Editor Valentine’s Day is a holiday that is most often associated with romance, love, and devoting our atten- tion to the special people in our lives whether that be a significant other, a friend, or a family member. Normally, we take this day to spend time with these people and shower them with gifts, but the one per- son we tend to overlook on this day is ourselves. This is understandable because we have been raised to put the needs of others above the needs of our own, and we’ve been told time and time again that if we do take time for ourselves, it is selfish. However, many studies done in recent years show that incor- porating self-love into your life is critical to maintaining physical, mental, and emotional health. In fact, having more self-love is imperative for anyone looking to lead a happy, healthy, fulfilling lifestyle.

  • Tina Theory: Notes on Fierceness
    Journal of Popular Music Studies, Volume 24, Issue 1, Pages 71–86 Tina Theory: Notes on Fierceness Madison Moore Yale University Touching Queerness Everything I know about being queer I learned from Tina Turner. More specifically, you might say that Ike and Tina’scover of “Proud Mary”— the soundtrack of my childhood—taught me, through camp performance, how to be a “Mary.” During the holiday parties at my great-grandmother Lucille “Big Momma” Jones’ house, for as long as I can remember, we kids ended up in the “Children’s Room” so the grown folks could curse, drink whiskey, smoke, laugh, and be as loose as they felt. The “Children’s Room” was not that special. It was usually a bedroom with a computer or television and a few board games, located next to the food which was always laid out buffet style. My favorite moments were when we would lip sync for our lives by doing drag karaoke, where my cousins and I would lock ourselves away and perform great popular music hits for an invisible audience. We pulled songs from Christina Aguilera or Britney Spears’ latest album to older joints that circulated long before our time, songs like “Stop! (In the Name of Love)” by Diana Ross and The Supremes and Patti LaBelle’s“Lady Marmalade.” But one song we kept in our catalog and that we seemed to have the most fun with was the Ike and Tina Turner cover of “Proud Mary.” Whenever we did “Mary” I insisted in being Tina. But what was it that drew me—a black gay boy rooted, like Tina, in Saint Louis, which is either the South or the Midwest depending on who

The servers could be rude, the food overcooked and the coffee rather bland com- pared to the place she preferred a few blocks east. The ambi- ence at the Kozy Kitchen wasn’t particularly cozy, or “kozy,” either, for that matter, featuring cracked vinyl booths and walls that had needed a new coat of paint about a decade earlier. The Kitchen, as those in the neighborhood called it, was too tired and dingy to attract many hipsters, with their laptops and their slouchy knit caps and their carefully groomed facial hair. Right now, it was perfect for her needs.

  • Soul Food Junkies [Transcript]
    SOUL FOOD JUNKIES [TRANSCRIPT] BYRON HURT: This is my pops, Jackie Hurt. My pops loved to eat and he loved eating soul food – barbecued ribs, grits and eggs, collard greens, ham hocks, cornbread, mac and cheese, black-eyed peas, sweet potato pies. You name it, he loved it. My mother, Francis Hurt, married my pops at 17 and cooked most of his meals. Like most boys, I wanted to be just like my pops. At the dinner table, I ate whatever he ate. So I would stack up my plate with the grits and the eggs and the salt pork, and we would slice up our pork in nice little pieces and mix the grits and the eggs together and put all the pork that we had cut up on top of the grits and the eggs, and then put it on top of our toast. That was like a typical Sunday breakfast. Breakfast on Sunday morning was when my pops and I really connected because we were sharing food with each other and establishing a family tradition. I never questioned what we were eating or how much. Back then, I just enjoyed my mother’s delicious food. My father went from being young and fit, to growing nearly twice his size. I worried all the time about my pop’s health. My biggest fear was that he would get sick and die at an early age. Even though he talked about making changes, he continued to eat soul food meals that were high in fat and calories. Seven years ago, my pops got sick and even still, he refused to give up eating traditional soul food and I just couldn’t understand why.
