Ep 211 | Howdy DISCOs đ Natalie and Tara tap into a cultural shift that hits home for many: Luke Combsâ decision to scale back from full tours in favor of family time, as the country star headlines festivals instead of touring city after city.

We also dive into Trader Joeâs fertilized eggs going viral (can you hatch them?) NASCARâs pivot to sustainable ethanol fuels, thanks to the Iowa Corn 350, and of course, some honest reality TV debriefing as Farmer Wants a Wife heads into the home stretch.
