Country Whuppin' – Tim Dugger Vs. Rodney Atkins

Eric Cornish — Thu, 14 Jun 2012 20:55:06 +0000

I usually say that it's the online votes that put the winner of the Country Whuppin' over the top, but in the last battle, it was the call-in votes. The online votes for Bill Gentry and Tim Dugger were so close, the unanimous call-in votes for Dugger, gave him the win! In today's Country Whuppin' brought to you by Cleaver's Prime Sandwiches and Salads, Tim moves a step closer to his second Hall of Fame bid, as he faces Rodney Atkins.

Eric's Lost Hit – Rodney Atkins

Eric Cornish — Wed, 27 Apr 2011 20:18:36 +0000

I remember getting into radio, and hearing about Rodney Atkins. He put out quite a few songs before getting a big hit. But one of the first songs that I played on the radio at my first station in 2003 was “Honesty (Write Me A List).” Such a touching song, everyone knew that he would [...]
