  • Season Two - Episode 12 - James Jim McClendon "Grizzly"

    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.

  • Season Two - Episode 11 - Steve Shewchuk

    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!

  • Season Two - Episode 10 - Black and White and Polk Clark

    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!

  • Season Two - Episode 9 - Animal House In Memphis

    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!

  • Season Two - Episode 8 - Uncle Gary, The POT King

    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.

  • Season Two - Episode 7 - Oblivious and Jason Isbell

    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.

  • Season Two - Episode 3 - Beer, Women, Clubs

    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!
