When Mother Teresa Came to Nashville: The NunBun Remembered

Nashville Demystified

Hey, do you remember when it felt like people were seeing religious figures in every day items like—all the time? There’s Mary on toast. There’s Jesus in a pan of bacon. Well back in the 90s a customer at Bongo Java—a Nashville coffee house—spotted an image of Mother Teresa on a bun and it kicked off a decade of wild shenanigans. There’s action, there’s a robbery, there’s fame, there’s threats of legal action. This was a big deal, friends, and it all happened right here in Nashville.

Oh, in this episode I mention all of the great performances I saw at Americanafest. You probably already know these artists, dear listener, but some of the greatest performances I saw came by way of the following folks (and I know, I know, I know I am definitely missing some):

Nicole Atkins
Lilly Hiatt
Tristen
Anthony da Costa
Caitlin Rose
Rachel Baiman
Maya De Vitry
The Rad Trads
Ordinary Elephant
JP Harris
Miss Tess
Lula Wiles
Hawktail

As a matter of fact, I made a playlist that youâ€re welcome to dive into!
