Jesse Welles: Keeping the spirit of American folk music alive - CBS Sunday Morning

[question everything]

(Hope that the Weiss woman will not touch this program)

1. He's been on TikTok a long time and other platforms

for a while. He popped up on my TikTok feed a few years ago, and I immediately started following him. He's very poetic and poignant.

2. I hope he wins all 4 Grammys...

He's really a gem in the world of music. And a artist of the times.

Go Jesse!

3. This was likely arranged before Weiss took over. CBS has often removed these artist videos from

YouTube, though, and they started doing that before current RW management. I've posted a number of OPs the last few years with videos of artists they featured on Sunday mornings, and a lot of those videos were taken down by CBS, in some cases within days. Though in some cases the videos could still be found posted in messages on their Facebook account after they were removed from YouTube.

Correction - The stories on musicians that were taken down were from CBS Mornings their weekday show, and CBS Saturday Morning. Not from CBS Sunday Morning.
