“There are times you don’t get along ... but that’s not a reason to walk out the door,” the country singer says in a new episode of “What I’ve Learned.”

Tim McGraw wants to set the record straight. He’s heard the rumors that he performed at the fabled Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce wedding this summer. But the three-time Grammy Award winner and recent inductee to the Country Music Hall of Fame reveals now that the headlines got it wrong. “I didn’t perform at her wedding,” McGraw tells Esquire editor in chief Michael Sebastian in a new episode of “What I’ve Learned.” “That was a rumor,” he says.
But the “Live Like You Were Dying” singer confirms that he did attend the wedding with his wife, fellow country music powerhouse Faith Hill, as they celebrate 30 years of marriage together. What’s the secret to making a marriage work for three decades? “Just a commitment that you want it to work,” McGraw tells Esquire. “People are so easy to walk away from troubled times or bad times, or times where you don’t get along. But going into a marriage and being in a marriage for a long time, you start to realize that, yeah, there are gonna be times you don’t like each other. There are times you don’t get along ... but that’s not a reason to walk out the door.”

According to a recent and deeply unscientific poll conducted by yours truly, some guys are confounded by corduroy. They like it. They want to wear it. But they’re not quite sure how it figures into their wardrobes. This is a pity, because corduroy is great. It’s warm, hard-wearing, delivers texture galore, and can work beautifully in the context of all different types of personal style.
So, in the interest of getting these guys—and you!—properly outfitted, I’m offering this crash course in corduroy. It’ll give you the key information you need to understand the fabric’s history and how you can wear it now. Let’s dive in.

On Monday, the Democrats on the House Judiciary Committee released a report that, by all rights, should have fitted this president, his administration, and its congressional enablers for a shroud. It presented evidence that the president of the United States, in partnership with the sex criminal Jeffrey Epstein, allegedly was quite the sex criminal himself.
For the first time, a systematic case for the prosecution is presented. Many of the allegations revolve around a dubious beauty pageant system concocted by the president and Epstein with the assistance of a passel of tawdry hustlers including Paolo Zampolli and John Casablancas during the go-go 1990s. That culture proved to be catnip for men like Epstein and the president.
