While this is the first, we are please to say it will not be the last.  This is a chance to get to know the person behind the story and learn about her  from her own point of view.  As the Parlay is a memoir, our time with Bea will fill in the blanks, add depth to her characters, and explain the back story.  

Of course you can participate directly in up coming interviews by submitting your questions to Bea, which she will answer personally in her own charming and humorous way.

In this episode Bea talks about movies from the 1980s and their meaning.  She introduces Suzy and describes her friendship through the years.

Be sure to check us out on Amersandtales.com for our updates.

Season two is on the way.  Join us in October for all new episodes and meet more of Bea's cast of characters.

It cannot always be sunny, not even in Parlay MS.  Into all lives a little rain must fall.  God sends his refreshing rain on the just and the unjust.  To the righteous the rain is a nurturing tonic that brings out the finest lily of the field whose regiment is finer than the purple robes of Soloman.  But to the wicked the same shower is a storm of judgment from Gods cup of wrath.

Come on in and sit a spell.  Bea has another recollection to spin for us about the naive teenage machinations of getting married.  Too much is taken for granted and reality is just a truth to be ignored.

Coming back to hear Bea is like coming back to a dear friend.  She is always glad you came, and she never remembers the time between visits.  In this episode Bea will roll the dice on some long shots and hope that luck will be a lady.

Welcome back y’all.  In this episode Bea we hear about family dalliances and piece together the double entandré about pants on fire.

This time Bea tells Someone-Who-Never-Was about the family penchant for cussin and fussin.   You won’t hear Bea say nary a trashy word here, but she stands firm that the family can make a Sailor blush with its perniciously perfected Potty mouth.

Every family has skeletons, and as  Bea tells it, they are neither scary or objects of pride they are just what they are…. lessons to learn from.

Bea reminisces about the end of a "civil war" and the beginning of a blistering "cold one".
