All Dirt Roads Taste of Salt A newborn baby is told of her creation from dirt and water. She cannot react to such words just yet. However, she will come to understand that the change within herself and around her is no different than rain’s plummet into the soil. Raven Jackson’s first feature film is a poetic rising of memory bridging together decades of the life of Mack, a woman […]
The other day, my brother reached out to me for help on a college supplemental essay. It was an application for Wake Forest, and the question simply asked him for his “Top 10.” It didn’t specify what, leaving the question as open-ended as possible. We had a friend who had previously done her top 10 song lyrics of all time, but I advised him to get a little more creative […]

On November 10th, The Music Room will host Ms. Worldwide, a house show that highlights underrepresented voices in Nashville. I had the privilege to sit down with performers Jyoti Laverack and Soumya Vytla who gave me the inside scoop about the upcoming show.

Anyone who knows me knows that I am an avid tennis fan. I play it, I watch it, I discuss it. Anyone who knows me even better knows that I have a very, very strong preference for women’s tennis. I almost never watch men’s tennis, for a variety of reasons. I find men’s tennis to be boring; if I wanted to watch a 50-ball rally that ends with an unforced […]

Early in the pandemic, I watched the 1967 classic Cool Hand Luke on the extremely new platform, HBO Max. The story, along with Paul Newman’s performance, captivated me. I recognized a famous line that my father quoted for years but never knew where it was from: “What we’ve got here is failure to communicate.” After that, I watched Phantom Thread and Barry Lyndon, two movies still among my favorites a […]

Meet Khya, a talented singer-songwriter at Belmont University who is already making a splash in the indie pop genre. Signed with The Convergence Management, she wrote and released her debut song "city lights" during the COVID-19 pandemic.

David Grann’s bestselling book, Killers of the Flower Moon, is a fast-paced investigation of the murders of Osage Native Americans in the 1920s. Scorsese’s new film is a faithful adaptation that expands its scope through an intimate portrayal of its main characters, Ernest and Mollie Burkhart. It is just as fast-paced as the book, and the over 200-minute runtime is not a hindrance. The plot revolves around the “Reign of […]
The Buffalo Bills will always share some sort of special connection with VandyRadio for me. For the entire first semester of my show – and you can ask my co-host Owen – I was about as bullish on the Bills as one could be. I was all in on them winning the 2022 Super Bowl from October of 2021 onwards. Looking back at it, I can say that 17-year-old me […]
