Hi. Hi, everybody.
Are you serious? Will and I have discovered that adult friendships require grace. But not too much grace, let me tell you.
How did Thomas Doherty and the host become friends?
What do you mean?
Grace can only go so far.
Will and I haven't seen each other in about three months.
It's been a little too long.
Well, you've been writing in Nashville. Yes, I have. I've done some sessions. Will's new song, Worth Fighting For, is out now. You should all stream it. It's amazing. Any other life updates from you? Not really. My little Southern male. I mean, you've got a lot to cover, baby.
Like what? I don't know. I haven't seen you in a minute, so. Is this a little awkward or what?
Do you have any questions for me? No, I feel like we've covered a lot of the bases.
Yeah, I agree.
You don't watch Paradise? No, but I need to start. Did you watch season one?
I did, yes. Well, it's amazing. Season two is amazing. Okay, well, I'm going to start it tonight. Are you working on any new music currently?
What insights does Thomas share about his experiences on Paradise?
I am, yes. Any songs you're excited about? Yeah, there's one called Tennessee at 17, and I think it's going to be good.
Ooh, Tennessee at 17. You love country music. Will always puts me on to good music. You put me on to Devin again.
She's so incredible.
You also put me on to Carter Faith. Oh, yeah. I am obsessed with. And you put me on to that. What's that song? It's a very Americana. Yeah, I have no idea. It's like I'm American Dream.
Oh, Sierra Farrell. Yeah. She's incredible. Yes. And she plays her own instruments. It's insane.
Yeah, well.
She's one of the best live performers I've ever seen.
So who should we put on right now besides you?

Her new album is phenomenal. Okay, Grace Ives. The production's insane. I think she's brilliant.
Sarah Kinsley. Sarah Kinsley's always been that girl.
