In case you missed it...

Lainey Wilson has set a major record...the first female artist in history to earn four number one hits on country radio in a single calendar year. The newly-crowned CMA Entertainer of the Year went #1 with "Heart Like A Truck," "Wait In The Truck" with Hardy, "Watermelon Moonshine," and "Save Me" with Jelly Roll. 

Major League Baseball's Draft Lottery is being held in Nashville, which is like Powerball, with the draft order determined by a ping-pong draw. This year, the host was Brad Paisley, because...well, no one's really sure. Why not Brett Young, who pitched for Ole Miss before being injured, or even Garth Brooks, who has taken part in several spring trainings? 

Scott McCreery's hit song, "Five More Minutes," is the inspiration for a Hallmark Christmas movie. It premiered on Hallmark's Movies & Mysteries channel in 2021. It's set to air again on Wednesday, December 13th. It’s also available to purchase at Walmart and other retailers. Scotty didn't appear in it, but he is listed as an executive producer.
