It's Labor Day Weekend and SMWSM kicks off the celebration with two classic summertime stories involving the late, great Maurice Parnell McGrath. Then, Lutz-Yelton staple Matt Webb helps us travel down nostalgia lane with some favorite stories from yesteryear, including midnight racquetball, parking at Turner Field, and yes, a certain well known April Fool's prank. And afterwards, former law school faculty member Elliot Engstrom joins the program to talk about deciding to move to Shelby, favorite stories from his days as a law student, and his new professional ventures.
