The WKRN Good Morning Nashville Crew Is Your 2018 SoBro of the Year

Share This Post

Hot off the press! The polls have closed and the votes have been tallied. WKRN’s Good Morning Nashville has been named YOUR 2018 ‘SoBro of the Year.’

The 2018 SoBros Network Awards were voted on in October of 2018. The polls were open to anyone with the link, and hundreds of people cast their ballot. Over the course of the next couple of days, we will be announcing the recipients of all of our wrestling awards, our Best of Nashville awards, and most importantly, SoBro of the Year. So, stay tuned!

Some of you guys are probably wondering what the significance of this award is (spoiler alert: there is none, but I’m going to write about it anyway). Back when I announced the initial round of nominees, I defined it as:

Sometimes, this award is a way for us to give back and recognize individuals who are doing exemplary work in the Nashville community. Some people deserve an extra pat on the back for all they’re doing and what they mean to their respective community (it isn’t always Nashville-based).

Sometimes, it’s based purely on performance. Look at how much success a person attained in a given year and give that a big shout out. Did someone win a championship? Is their name popping up all over the place? Do they have a smooth, silky voice they use to predict the weather on television? These are just a few examples.

It essentially sounds like there are no rules to being nominated for this award, and that’s certainly not NOT true. But, the general consensus is that being nominated for this award comes from having a successful year and being of strong character that matches the core values of our company. Those values would be:

1. Create Fearlessly
2. Uplift Others
3. Be Humble
4. GSD (Get Shit Done)

If you watch Good Morning Nashville for a week, you’ll have no doubt that this crew exemplifies the SoBros spirit like few really do in Nashville.

When we initially announced them as a nominee, here’s what I had to say:

We had a lot of trouble pinning this one down. We’ve all become such big fans of the Good Morning Nashville crew, and we really felt like we couldn’t nominate one of them without nominating all of them, so here we are…the first “team” nomination for SoBro of the Year. That crew is charismatic and entertaining with a great team dynamic, but they also GSD like no other morning show can.

And, here’s the final poll for the 2018 SoBro of the Year voting:

  1. WKRN’s Good Morning Nashville
  2. Marko Stunt
  3. Taylor Lewan
  4. J.R. Lind
  5. Dawn Davenport

The people have spoken.

A huge shout out is in order for all of the work this team does. It’s fun to watch to this crew work together – there’s no other morning show in Nashville that has the chemistry they do, and if you follow them on all of the socials, you’ll discover they all have very entertaining and humorous personalities in their own regard.

I can’t begin to process how much their support of the SoBros brand has meant to us this year, but I’ll say that we wouldn’t write about them the way we do if they didn’t give us a reason to in the first place.

It’s obvious that our readers agree – I mean, they beat out some beloved public figures and literal Nashville royalty to get this award.

Thank you guys for all you do and congrats on the monstrous year.
