Not knowing who Florida Georgia Line are is awesome, though, because it means you don't live in one of America's shame places.

Are we talking about Flo Rida or something entirely different?

there's a country band named Florida Georgia Line that had massive success in the early 2010s and people were like "WHAT IS THIS BAND THAT WWE IS TRYING TO USE ON TV!? THIS MUSIC IS NOT POPULAR!"

I looked them up on YouTube and saw a song with 140 million plays and never heard it before.

But maybe country music gets less play in Canada compared to other American genres.

They still have massive success nowadays even on songs that aren't theirs

But yeah it was hilarious watching people in the Raw thread try to act like they were some no name group WWE decided to throw on there randomly. It's fine if you don't like something but that doesn't make it unknown.

In their defence, WWE has a habit of glomming on to some pretty lovely flavor of the month groups; for every Motorhead, which have a long rich legacy with rock and metal, there's 10 Union Underground's.

Yeah I’ve never heard of Florida Georgia Line and don’t know why I would have since pop country has its own weird huge fan base that I’m not a part of so I would have assumed it was just some randos wwe got for cheap licensing. That’s their MO like 90% of the time when they bring an outside band in

That's fair but two of their biggest hits are crossovers with a pop singer and a rapper that were beaten into the ground on mainstream pop radio. If you didn't ever hear them there then you're lucky you never worked anywhere that played the radio.

I'm in the mid 30's so anymore I just assume that if a band shows up on something popular that they've been huge for a while and I'm just out of the loop lol

This is a good question. My thought is because certain elements ironically enjoy pro wrestling, it might be forgiven more, although then you have to consider the people ironically liking country music on its alternate title "bluegrass."

If those devices are Apple, you can subscribe directly to the RSS feed in Overcast, and Apple Podcasts and probably others if the devices can connect to icloud and your playcout/position should sync across these devices. For older devices, if you subscribe via itunes, you can subscribe to the RSS then sync them to other stuff.

It probably works in Android too I just don't know how.

I seldom listen to WOL but I definitely wanna follow this Saudi Arabia nonsense as closely as I can. Hearing Bryan say “a majority of the talent doesn’t wanna go” and then me slowly realizing that it’ll be a sponsor issue way faster than it becomes a labor issue was pretty crushing tbh.
