Looks like we could be in for some nasty weather later tonight according to the U.S. National Weather Service (NWS). The good news is that once this heatwave passes through, cooler temps are on the way.

One of the best radio voices ever. RIP Bill Cody WSM Radio

It is with heavy hearts that we share the passing of our dear friend and beloved WSM voice, Bill Cody.

A singular presence on WSM-AM Nashville for more than three decades, Bill welcomed listeners each morning on Coffee, Country & Cody with a broad smile, a conversational ease, and an unerring ability to make both artists and audiences feel at home. He joined WSM in 1994 and had Charlie Daniels as his first in-studio guest. He built more than a morning show; he created a gathering place rooted in his deep love for country music and the people behind it.

Bill’s voice also became synonymous with the Grand Ole Opry, where he frequently served as host, including Opry Country Classics. His work extended across television and syndicated radio, bringing country music to audiences far beyond Nashville.

Inspired early on by time spent at a small Kentucky radio station with his father, Bill’s passion for broadcasting became a lifelong calling that ultimately led him to the city he once dreamed about as a young boy.

His contributions to broadcasting were recognized with his induction into the Country Radio Hall of Fame, a star on the Music City Walk of Fame, and his forthcoming, posthumous induction into the Tennessee Radio Hall of Fame.

More than his accolades, Bill will be remembered for his kindness, humility, and genuine gift for connection. He was a trusted voice, a generous friend, and a constant companion to generations of listeners.

In the days ahead, WSM will honor Bill with a special marathon of unforgettable moments from Coffee, Country & Cody, celebrating a legacy that will forever be part of our station and our community.

How many 80s kids do we have out there? Who remembers this TV? My parents still have this TV in their living room. It doesn’t work but it holds things nicely.

How many of you took your lunch to school in the metal lunchbox? I had the boring red and black plaid one. Not what I wanted. I wanted the Dukes Of Hazzard lunchbox but my mom said it was 14 cents more than the ugly plaid one. So in a money saving experiment, I got the old man lunchbox. I learned a valuable lesson that day. If you want something, go buy it.

Here is Karen from Coleman's complaint letter. Hope you find it as amusing as I do. I like how she never even uses my name.
