The outdoors has offered comfort and escape for many Southerners this year. The sudden isolation of being cut off from family, co-workers, and friends during the pandemic has driven more people to nature as an escape from the confines of the living room.

Marty Stuart & His Fabulous Superlatives in Bristol, Tennessee.
This week s show is a look back to March of 2012, one of many times Mountain Stage has partnered with the Birthplace of Country Music over the years. The main difference that I see in now and when I first came to Nashville is, back then it seemed that the most outlaw thing you could do around here was to take country music and blow it up into rock & roll. Today, the most outlaw thing you can possibly do in Nashville Tennessee is play country music.

NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) A road leading to Vanderbilt University Medical Center is now named for a Black pioneer in cardiac surgery, instead of bearing the Confederacy-tied moniker of Dixie Place.
Officials in Nashville commemorated the name change to Vivien Thomas Way during an event Monday.
In a news release, the hospital said the switch resulted from current second-year Vanderbilt University School of Medicine students brainstorming with college mentors last summer about creating change amid the civil unrest nationwide over the death of George Floyd.
Medical school professor Walter Clair, a mentor and the vice chair for diversity and inclusion in the school s Department of Medicine, suggested the name change. He noted to students that the last stoplight he had to drive through before parking in a garage at work was on Dixie Place.
