Talked to @sponglr about one of our favorite topics: Willie Nelson, who has yet another new album out tomorrow. (It’s good!) But also his essential @TexasMonthly list of Willie Nelson albums (now up to 153) and John’s excellent podcast, “One By Willie.” washingtonpost.com/entertain…

Every Willie Nelson album has a story. This man helps tell them.

Willie Nelson released his 153rd album this week. John Spong has listened to all of them, reviewing and ranking them for Texas Monthly.

Same goes for regular bikes, too, not just e-bikes. Stay off the sidewalks.

ESPN had Ted Cruz on 'College GameDay' in a conversation with Rece Davis for nearly 10 minutes. Cruz was heavily booed by the crowd -- and heard "Ted, you suck!" chants -- in Austin.

John Solomon, once a reporter for the Associated Press and The Washington Post, has in recent years become a prominent figure in pro-Trump media. His prize: a job in the White House. My profile of Solomon: washingtonpost.com/business/…

How a dogged D.C. journalist became Trump’s investigative reporter in the White House

Once a reporter for the Associated Press and The Washington Post, Solomon veered rightward in his coverage. His prize: a job in Donald Trump’s White House.
