o He’s dropping some new details on his upcoming album.
o We found out the title will be Twelve Carat Toothache, his follow-up to Hollywood’s Bleeding, which came out in 2019.
o The album will be around 45 minutes long, which goes against the trend of releasing long records to up your streaming numbers.
o Posty says that he doesn’t want to compromise his art or gut vibe by trying to show 20-25 songs on a record.
o He added that a lot of musicians’ artistry gets lost in the industry because they change their art just to chase numbers.
o No official release date yet but he says it will come out this year.

o SPOILER: Her historic “Jeopardy!” winning streak has ended.
o Librarian Rhone Talsma ended her 40-game winning streak last night.
o The McKinley Park resident and multimedia librarian finished in first place with a score of $29,600.
o Schneider finished second with $19,600.
o After winning he said, “I am, first and foremost, incredibly proud of myself. Getting on the show was in itself a huge accomplishment, and I had no expectation of winning, especially once I found out I was going against a record-setting champion. I’m just incredibly grateful—and lucky, no doubt about that.”

o The chicken company is selling heart shaped-chicken nuggets for Valentine’s Day.
o They had them last year too, but you had to win a bag.
o This time, they're selling them in stores nationwide, including Walmart.
o And they're doing a different giveaway…a special PEN that holds dipping sauce and lets you write on the nuggets, so they look like Conversation Hearts.
o They're only giving away 250 pens, and it's happening next week. On Monday, go to Tyson's Instagram page and look for a new post about it. Then reply to it . . . tag your Valentine . . . and use the hashtags #SayItWithNuggets and #Sweepstakes.
