Listen Now

From the mountains of Alabama, to Sherwood Forest in Memphis, to the jungles of Vietnam and back again, Grizzly lived the life. A free and independent thinker, Jim was a man's man. He was funny, smart but most of all, intimidating. How? How do you know that is stronger, tougher, more unafraid, more unpredictable and to top it all off, smarter than you? Not many of those out there but Jim was one. Warning: This is not a happily ever after story.

This is an especially important episode about a friend of mine that the world never got to know. Poor world. This is a story of our own Einstein. This is a story about genius on a scale that no one can even imagine. Listen and see if you don't agree!

Tonites episode is a story of segregation, integration, glory, success and somehow avoiding a terrible ass whupping. We go from 1st grade thru college. Just some stories about how our generation was the first to have a chance to do things the right way. It took both races to make it a success. And we tried like hell!

We told one of these stories in Season 1 and have plenty more. Tonites is probably the wildest one and scariest in some ways. I am hoping that the statute of limitations has expired for obvious reasons! We were young, too smart for our own good and oblivious to the outside world plus we were usually drunk. Yep, we had some damn good times!

We started this story in Season 1 and tonite, we finish. Gary was laid back, big time. But he turned his obsession into a huge business. From broke to being a millionaire by being good with plants. And then a lot of bad stuff happened. This episode contains a bit more realism that most so this is your warning: Not all live happily ever after.

Come along as we have some fun with country music stars in Nashville, as well as remember my favorite band, The Drive-By Truckers. If you do not know what the word oblivious means, then my life can give you some examples. Oh well, sit back and enjoy another episode of Southern Tales, 20 minutes and a smile.

One of the nicest men I knew growing up. Also one of history's greatest chef's and food inventors, who no one ever knew. Credit is given here for all to know the truth.

True story. Poor Gary. Poor little redhair girl. May God forgive us all. Beer, pot, a car and only one thing to do: Roadtrip.

Fraternities often get a bad rap. We actually deserved ours but out of all the chaos, friends are made. This is about one of those.

This takes you thru my realization that I loved rock and roll, my days in the clubs and some of the wildest incidents ever to occur. Of Course, this is just a start, as we will continue to document the craziness of Memphis and West Tennessee in the 70's and 80's. Oh, yes, it gets wilder!

Fast food and big box stores invade our little rural world in the 70's. Kinda good and kinda sad. We did the best we could.

One of the greatest bands of all time and how I met Ronnie Van Zant. Their music still affects my world!

Relax as you meet another great character. Laugh and learn with our good friend Lyle, from Minnesota! Learn more on our facebook page, facebook.com/southerntales or at www.broadneckmusic.com

The final episode of Season One teases us with new charactors that will have their stories told in upcoming seasons. If there stories are anything like their start, season two should be amazing! Of course, it is the late 60's and we have to get involved with both being in the war and of course, NOT being in the war. Ride along! Please join us and tell a friend, Southern Tales, 20 minutes and a smile! Keep close watch at broadneckmusic.com for the schedule on Season two! or on our facebook page www.facebook.com/southerntalespodcast

Growing up, we had 3 things: Jesus, beer and water. We were surrounded by water. And we took advantage of it as often as we could. Sometimes, just the views were worth the effort, sometimes the effort got us into HOT water. Come along and listen as we tell another tale of growing up in the South during the 70's and early 80's. Just 20 minutes and a smile! Follow us on our facebook page www.facebook.com/southerntalespodcast or check out our website for more depth and details at www.broadneckmusic.com and if you find a smile, please tell at least one person about the fun we are having! Thanks

This is an unusual Buford tale, one told by him, over a few drinks, and humorous. Not a lot of folks ever saw or heard his humor but we have several episodes that will contain some of the stories he shared with my dad on this night. Sit back and enjoy. Tell a friend!

If you think this episode is about tennis, you are wrong! This is about friendship and how it happens. Sometimes, it don't take hardly anything to form the best friendships. But maybe this is a southern thing too! Sit back and share a smile as we relate another Southern Tale.

How are southern funerals different from others? If you are from the south, you already know the answer and if you are not, you will probably not be surprised but this tale of our West Tennessee boy going to an Alabama mountain funeral will have you rolling. And best of all, it is absolutely true, the way I remember it anyway!

The scariest incident of junior high...I think I have never been scareder in my life!! You will roll when you hear this one....I am just hoping that Cecil Jones NEVER hears this!

I should have been smarter than this but let's face it, there just wasn't much information available where I lived...in the sticks. I did the best I could to figure out stuff and if you don't know anything else, remember, it is a southern thing!
