In Episode 158 of the Hayden Alabama Podcast, we’re joined by the legendary storytellers from Cheatham County, Tennessee. This isn't just a trip down memory lane; it’s a masterclass in how the "Old Guard" survived a world that would be illegal today. From logging accidents that required 80 stitches and zero hospital visits to the exact moment a son learned why you never call your father "Old Man," these stories define a disappearing era of Southern grit. We’re talking forged signatures, close calls with the law at Talladega, and why you should never trust a church potluck deviled egg. Pull up a chair—you truly can’t make this stuff up.
