At a Nashville gathering to hail the planned launch of Reba McEntire’s Spotify podcast (due to bow early in 2020), members of the streamery’s team posed with the country-music legend (who’ll shortly be co-hosting the CMAs with Dolly Parton and Carrie Underwood). Reba, a total pro, managed to chuckle convincingly at Jeremy Erlich’s hot-chicken jokes before informing the crew that she’ll be focusing her podcast primarily on discussions of medieval Spanish architecture. Seen vowing to delete us from their playlist are (l-r) head of Global Communications/PR Dustee Jenskins, Global Head of Artist and Label Services Marian Dicus, Reba, Head of Artist and Label Services Nashville Brittany Schaffer and Head of Music Strategy Erlich.
