Is modern dating officially UNHINGED?!

In Part 1 of this wild two-part special of Earth to Aimee, Aimee Mayo and Chris Lindsey sit down with Gen Z guests JoJo and Sully for an uncensored crash course in modern romance—and let's just say things have changed A LOT since Chris and I were single.

We ask the tough questions: Why do guys send roses on Hinge, and why do girls think it's desperate? Are people actually looking for love, or just attention? What is Raya, the secret $50/month app celebrities use? And are people really meeting complete strangers just to hook up?!

JoJo drops a shocker about catching a guy updating his profile with a photo SHE took of him, Sully breaks down the male perspective on Hinge, and we unlock the truth behind ethical non-monogamy, red-flag profiles, ghosting, and wild midnight pickup lines.

Funny, outrageous, and completely unfiltered—are people still looking for real love, or has dating become one big game?

Part 1 is LIVE now! Be sure to subscribe so you don't miss Part 2 when Aimee and Chris try Hinge themselves!

Greylan James shares the true story behind “Water at a Wedding,” co-writing Jordan Davis’s ACM Song of the Year “Next Thing You Know,” and going from a Kenny Chesney fan to his opening act on Earth to Aimee with Aimee Mayo.

At seven years old, Greylan watched Kenny Chesney play Neyland Stadium. Now he’s preparing to open for him. But between those two moments came years of writing songs for other artists, rejection, money struggles, and wondering why his own music wasn’t connecting.

Then he tried something unexpected: a secret TikTok account. No followers. His face hidden. One song. He woke up to a million views.

In this funny, honest conversation, the country singer and Nashville songwriter shares how his Papaw bought him his first guitar at five, why he taped a picture of Kenny Chesney to it, and what happened when his card was declined at Captain D’s six months after a major career win.

He takes us inside his chaotic ACM Awards night, from a stained shirt and a last-minute trip to Dillard’s to winning Song of the Year and coming face to face with the publisher who dropped him.

Greylan also reveals the real-life inspiration behind “Water at a Wedding,” explains why he keeps searching for “number five” when writing a song, and tells the unforgettable story of a grieving father who gave him his late son’s pocketknife.

Aimee shares songwriting stories of her own, including the driveway fight with her husband and creative partner, Chris Lindsey, that inspired her favorite song he ever wrote.

If you love country music, the stories behind the songs, Nashville songwriting, and people who keep going after rejection, this episode is for you.

Earth to Aimee is hosted by award-winning hit songwriter Aimee Mayo, co-writer of “Amazed,” “This One’s for the Girls,” and “My Best Friend,” and author of Talking to the Sky.
