Alan Jackson has cruised through four straight Showdowns, but to get to the Taste of Country Showdown Hall of Fame, he’s going to have to top another country superstar in Darius Rucker. The legend’s new song ‘You Go Your Way’ is hot right now, with online and phone call votes leaning heavily his way. But Rucker might be hotter.
Taste of Country Nights host Jeremy Robinson is from Texas, so you’d think he’d have known last night’s Lyrical Pursuit song. The winning contestant thought so too, and wasn’t afraid to call him out on a nationally syndicated radio show.

Have you ever been inside a radio studio? Taste of Country Nights host Jeremy Robinson shows fans around his home away from home. We meet engineer Chris and producer Todd. OK, we only hear Todd, but that’s close enough. See where all the fun happens in the video below.
Little Big Town is celebrating their first No. 1 song. ‘Pontoon’ hit the mark, but the band doesn’t sound very excited about it. Jeremy shows everyone how the celebratory press conference should be handled.
Fans have been as supportive of Thomas Rhett‘s second single as they were his debut effort, ‘Something to Do With My Hands.’ ‘Beer With Jesus’ sets a different tone than the fun Top 20 hit, but it strikes a deep chord with fans of country music. With two Showdown wins behind him, the singer will take on another newcomer in Greg Bates and ‘Did It for the Girl.’
A game called Sing the Rest is becoming a favorite of Taste of Country Nights‘ listeners. However it might not be if host Jeremy Robinson keeps adding his own version of hit songs at the end.
Newcomer Maggie Rose‘s steamy new song ‘I Ain’t Your Mama’ squeaked by the weekend Showdown champion on Monday. Her new song was too much for Justin Moore‘s ”Til My Last Day,’ meaning her track will move on to face a new challenger today and tonight on Taste of Country Nights radio.
A caller thinks she’s calling the hotel she stayed at the previous night, and wants to know where her blue jeans and t-shirt are.
The lesson we all learned from Friday night’s show, don’t mess with Taste of Country Nights’ host Jeremy Robinson’s dinner, or his wallet. He makes a bet that his mouth is willing and able to back up.

What was that lyric again? “Hey-ho-oh-who-now?” A new game called Lyrical Pursuit tasks listeners with coming up with the title of a song read by engineer Chris. His recreations are something to behold.
This guy gives the worst excuse ever after being accused of driving under the influence. The Taste of Country Nights team thinks this story is a “Croc” (ba-dum-dum).
Yesterday’s battle of Texas country quartets left only one as champion. ‘No Better Than This’ is the current king, meaning the uptempo new song from JB and the Moonshine Band will face a new challenger today and tonight on Taste of Country Nights radio. Remember, you can vote every hour online, as well as on the phone after 7PM by calling the Taste of Country Nights studio at (888) 678-9995.
