On a special edition of Toy Heart, we remember Bluegrass Music Hall of Famer, Grand Ole Opry member, seven-time Grammy Award nominee, CMA Award winner, and roots music legend Bobby Osborne. “This is what I started with when I was 15 years old,” Osborne says as the episode begins. When Osborne died on June 27 at the age of 91, he still had future shows and appearances on his calendar. They discuss Bobby’s broad impact and influence – even Bob Dylan was a fan – and iconic Osborne Brothers songs like “Ruby,” “Roll Muddy River,” and yes, “Rocky Top,” too. Editor’s note: Toy Heart will be returning in the fall of 2023 for its second season.

“I must end my drug consumption in my daily life completely,” Bandaogo told the court. But Bandaogo told the court of a troubled childhood that led him into drug use. But travelling to Vancouver via Toronto and Winnipeg gave him ample access to crystal meth, which he consumed in “enormous” amounts.

Meta's new app Threads, the social media giant's alternative for Twitter, has attracted about 70 million users since its debut Wednesday night, CEO Mark Zuckerberg said on Friday. 'Data harvesting'As Twitter faces turbulence from controversial policy changes, Threads appears to have emerged at just the right time. Other caveatsFor now, only Instagram users can create a Threads account. Another wrinkle is you can't delete a Threads account without also deleting your Instagram.

It is notable because individual intolerance was in a way sanctified by a statement by North American Islamic scholars that declared queer life sinful. ***Even if sex-ed exemptions are allowed in Alberta, I’m glad the Londonderry teacher challenged the disdain toward LGBTQ2+ groups.
