In this week's episode the Powell's discuss a recent road trip to the hometown of our fathers. #Whitakers #NorthCarolina is a town in northeastern NC that time has left behind. Its a rural hamlet that lost its lifeline when the interstate was built, like many thriving small towns along the highways and byways of America prior to the Interstate highway system being built. #I95 #I10#I301 #I5 #I75 #i90 have connected large swaths of the country but have been a bane to small town America. The guys also say goodbye to #NBA coach #DonNelson , or #Nellie as he was affectionately known. There was a major earthquake in #Colombia . We hope the survivors of the #ColombianEarthquake recover soon. Former NBA star #BenSimmons is talking comeback. Ohhhhkayy. There is some ridiculousness happening with for NBA player #EnesKantor who wants to enter the #WNBADraft . What a loser.
