Jimmy Carter wins posthumous Grammy for narrating an audiobook of his Sunday school lessons

LOS ANGELES (AP) — Former President Jimmy Carter has won a posthumous Grammy award.

Carter, the peanut farmer who won the presidency in the wake of the Watergate scandal and Vietnam War, died in December at age 100. Prior to his passing, Carter was nominated in the audio book, narration, and storytelling recording category at the 2025 Grammys for “Last Sundays in Plains: A Centennial Celebration,” recordings from his final Sunday School lessons delivered at Maranatha Baptist Church in Georgia. Musicians Darius Rucker, Lee Ann Rimes and Jon Batiste are featured on the record.

It’s Carter’s fourth Grammy. His posthumous Grammy joins his three previous ones for spoken word album.

If the former president won before his death, he would’ve become the oldest Grammy award winner in history.

1. I look forward to Turnip qualifying for a posthumous Grammy, or really any posthumous reward.

I really don't give a fuck what it is, as long as he qualifies for the 'posthumous' part.

3. a Darwin award is usually posthumous.

5. Too bad he doesn't do anything for himself. I can't see him driving a car safely, or even plastering on his makeup.

Could someone please get him to take up Formula One racing or underwater caving, or try to pilot an autogyro ?

[niyad]

8. he cannot even operate a golfcart safely. So, yes, it is difficult to imagine

him receiving a Darwin. One dares to dream, however.

6. He's not eligible for a Darwin.

It's for removing yourself from the gene pool. If you have already reproduces, it's too late for that to be true.

[niyad]

7. iit is about removing oneself from the gene pool now and in the future.

9. Making his ineligibility that much more regrettable. Still, I'd give him a participation medal if he played it well. nt

2. Didn't know it existed.

It would be nice to hear what a real Christian has to say.

4. They're all real Christians

The only fake Christians are the Christians that other Christians disagree with.
