In this episode of Former Student we sit down with class of 2002 all-star Eric Shaver. We chat about cussing in class, review game glory, selling Super Bowl ads to the masses and Twitch…something old man Raymer knew almost nothing about. Make it a great day or not…

In this episode we have ourselves a nice chat with 2001 graduate, Jason Daley. Full disclosure, this one is mostly about soccer. We talk SMHS soccer, Raymer's soccer heyday, World Cup soccer, oh, and there's a little bit of dodgeball sprinkled in there too. Make it a great day or not...

In this episode we chat with 2008 grad, Lindsey Doyle (Shirley) and what a treat it was. We talked Nick Saban's shoe size, snakes, Saturday school, and even snuck in an AP Macro Econ pop quiz. Make it a great day or not...

This week we catch up with class of 05's own, Brennan Strain AKA Kevin. We talk about The Cauldron of Consequence, Project Pat, 10 minute break, the Ivy League of Alabama and much more. Make it a great day or not...

We're so happy to be back in session! On our Season 2 premiere we sit down with class of 2003 all star, Jennifer Arguinzoni. We discuss everything from Floral print denim and Señor Spearpapi, to sir/mam pleasantries and why it's hard to name your kids as a teacher. We hope you enjoy it! Make it a great day, or not.  

Wendy’s released the Baconator in June of 2007. One of the most iconic dishes in culinary history turns 14 this year. To celebrate, we thought we’d tell an equally iconic tale of gastronomic glory. The SMHS Baconator-eat-off of 2007 is burned into the collective memories of all who were blessed enough to witness the historic event. For those not lucky enough to see it first-hand, lend us your ears and stomachs… this one is legendary. This Former Student bonus episode marks the first installment of a series…Tales From The Mill.  Bon Appetite! 

This week we sit down with former student, and local legend, Brian Parsons (c/o 2005). In the grand finale of season 1 we discuss being an extraordinarily average student, tap dancing, Finnish education, awesome weddings, Anne’s pretzel secrets and so much more! We also introduce a new segment we’ll be including in our season 2 episodes...Cheers and Jeers. It’s back! Big thanks to everyone who tuned in this season. We’ll see you in August. Y’all make it a great summer, or not. The choice is yours.
