Summary
Throwback Thursday (Originally aired: 11/30/25) Bunnie sits down with country music legend Craig Morgan for a powerful, emotional, and unexpectedly uplifting conversation. Craig opens up about his journey from growing up in Kingston Springs to serving in the Army and attending the elite Korean Ranger School—experiences that shaped the man and the musician he would become. He shares intimate memories of his humble beginnings, his first hunting trip with his mom, and the moment he realized music was his calling. Craig also reflects deeply on his faith, the loss of his son, and the resilience that carried him forward, along with the unwavering support of his wife, Karen, throughout their 37-year marriage. Craig reveals the incredible story behind his viral hit “The Father, My Son.” Written spontaneously at 4:30 AM and never meant for anyone to hear, the song took on a life of its own after he recorded it with Sonya Isaacs—eventually skyrocketing to number one on iTunes across all genres and landing him appearances on Ellen and Fox & Friends. From family and faith to farming, hunting, and the unexpected twists of his career, Craig’s humility and gratitude shine through in every story he shares. This is Craig Morgan like you’ve never heard him before.
