Catching up with Courtney Cronin at the Nashville ROCKNPOD.

I spoke briefly with comedienne Courtney Cronin at the recent RockNPod Expo in Nashville, TN. We talked a little about one of my TikTok videos gaining 23,000 views while the next one only received a few. Courtney shares about her dog, Rainey, while I talked about my dog, Buddy, and the challenges of dog-proofing my home. Courtney discussed some upcoming LA shows as well as the upcoming Mountain Music Festival. The conversation touches on my dad jokes on TikTok and Courtney’s preference for writing over performing. We close out the conversation humorously discussing microphone covers and promotional items from past events.

Here’s the TikTok video we were talking about: https://www.tiktok.com/@allentaterocks/video/7486849429002046766

If you missed the live broadcast of Big Al’s Rockin’ Radio Show on Saturday, April 5th, or you want to hear it again, here’s your chance. I played great tunes that feature the cowbell. In some songs the cowbell is prominent, while in others, it only makes a brief appearance. Did I play your favorite cowbell song? Tune in here to find out:
