Nightmare Success In and Out

The Fried Honey Bun Man - Gerald Murphy


Listen Later

Gerald Murphy has many talents, but one he is famous for is being the creative inventor of the Leavenworth "fried honeybun." Murph describes the funny story of how this fried honeybun is prison made. Murph's story moves along from his early childhood growing up with "Southern Women"...with yes mam, no mam rules in the house. His Dad is his best friend and made certain moves to keep Murphy away from the trouble on the streets. Murphy was a top athlete that excelled in sports, particularly football. He shares the story of his Dad moving him to a Kansas county where they were the only black family, which made Murph the only black high school student. He says some of his best friends today are from his high school days. Murphy has the personality to always adapt and make friends regardless of the circumstances. His life took a turn in college when he ventured into the drug world. Murphy served a state prison stint and states this is where he learned how to be a better drug dealer. When Murph returned home his goal was to be at the top of the drug trade. Murph is an incredible, likeable storyteller who is so humble and honest about his journey. Murphy got out of Leavenworth and gritted it out doing jobs no one wanted while attending school. Now he has a good job, and is in a good relationship...just bought a new car! I am proud of Murphy with what he has done to get to where he is. You just gotta like Murph and his story. He has lived Nightmare Success for sure.
