The Center Stage spotlight shines on Cole Swindell this week, as we celebrate the release of his new album Stereotype. Cole loves doing the unexpected, like completely re-writing one of his favorite 90's hits, or partnering with Lainey Wilson for a firey duet. Kelly and Amber take us party hopping as they attend the premiere of the Amazon Original documentary For Love & Country, the Grand Ole Opry, and a special Carly Pearce concert event. Plus we dig into Merle Haggard's checkered past and [RE]Discover his songs that were influenced by his time in prison.

Country Heat Weekly is the flagship country podcast from Amazon Music, coming to you direct from Nashville.
