Why Brad Paisley and his wife Kimberly opened 'The Store' up to host a vet clinic

NASHVILLE, Tenn. (WTVF) — He's a dad himself — and he knows the importance of making essentials available to everyone who needs them.

Country music star Brad Paisley and his wife, Kimberly, started 'The Store' here in Nashville 4 years ago.

They talked to us in an exclusive interview about why they opened up their shop today, not only to shoppers, but also to host a vet clinic that offered pet owners free supplies!

You realize when you make a store like this that's gonna provide groceries and food that any family that's in desperate to feed their kids, probably the pets are gonna suffer... priority one is feeding the family, but the pet's part of the family," Paisley said.

Tune in to Talk of the Town next week to see Heather Mathis's full interview with Brad and Kimberly!

Santa Train stops feel especially impactful in wake of Hurricane Helene

There are still so many families in East Tennessee hurting following the floods from Hurricane Helene in September. That made this year's running of the Santa Train extra special for many families in the northeast part of the state. This special Santa Express has been making an annual run in part of Appalachia for over 80 years.
