The theme for the popular Dukes of Hazard tv show features the following line:

“Straight'nin' the curves, flat’nin the hills. Someday the mountain might get ‘em, but the law never will.”

This episode features two “good ole boys” in the persons of host Steve Fielder and his Kentucky-born guest Jerry Barker. Like the Bo and Luke Duke theme suggests, the boys “make their way” through a pile of coon hunting topics that should resonate with anyone comfortable enough to wear the good ole boy label themselves.

This one comes through as tasty as country ham bathed in red eye gravy with grits on the side. It’s a down-home kind of “thang” that anyone identifying with the “good ole boy” label will enjoy. “Just a good ol' boys, wouldn’t change if they could, fightin’ the system like modern day Robin Hoods.” Good ole boys.
