Welcome to Alabama Short Stories. This is Shawn Wright, and I am happy to say that Season 6 starts on Tuesday, March 5, 2024, with more great stories about the state of Alabama.I will start the season with a story in the news the past couple of years. It's about Cudjo Lewis and the writers who have been telling this former slave's story for the past 100+ years, and we find the Clotilda in the process.We take driving on our well-maintained roads around the state for granted, but can you imagine what it would be like without them? Some Alabamians did and became part of a movement of good roads that turned out great.There is a story about a photographer with a funny name, Spider Martin. A well-known photographer around Birmingham, he made his name on the road from Selma to Montgomery and got to know Dr. King along the way. Music is a vital part of our lives in Alabama, and for centuries now, groups of people have been holding on tight to a tradition of singing named after a book of songs. Learn the story of Sacred Harp and the people keeping it alive and thriving.While her husband may be remembered as a great writer, the people of Alabama know that F. Scott Fitzgerald would be nothing without his wife, Zelda Sayre of Montgomery. Listen to their story and how their volatile relationship made them the poster children of the Jazz Age. I tell the story of a woman who was a psychic and the rush for gold. Both of these stories are in east Alabama, and while they don't relate, they were both sought out for their life-changing discoveries.There is a story of Johnny Mack Brown; he traveled to Pasadena with the University of Alabama's team for football glory and turned that success into stardom as a movie cowboy. The CIA battles communism with modern art only to find out that the real fight is at home among its people. Auburn University benefits from the pearl-clutching outrage and buys paintings for pennies on the dollar, the basis for their fine art museum.And we end the season by telling the story of America's oldest baseball park and the players who played there. Specifically, a son of Fairfield, Alabama, who went on to greatness playing for the San Fransisco Giants. While you are waiting for the season to start, you can help the podcast out.

Season 5 of the Alabama Short Stories podcast is just around the corner, and I can't wait for it to get started. Hey, this is Shawn Wright, your host for another trip around the state of Alabama to learn about the characters that make Alabama, well… Alabama. I am going to kick off the season with a story about Sam the Banana Man and his role in getting the banana that's sitting on your counter from Central America to you just so you can throw it out when it's too ripe.There's a story about Shorty Price. If you grew up an Alabama fan, I am sure your ears just perked up. Auburn fans, you won't want to miss this one. There is Alabama's first Miss America who inadvertently helped start the Miss USA pageant. A Supreme Court justice whose appointment was almost derailed because of an initiation at a Klan rally at Edgewood Lake in what would become Homewood. I tell the story of Truman Capote and Harper Lee growing up together in Monroeville and it being told on the silver screen in a little movie called “To Kill A Mockingbird.” Have you ever heard of it?There is the story of Carrie Tuggle, who, wanting to keep black children out of adult jails, built the Tuggle Institute and helped start the Jefferson County Family Court. John Henry was a steel-driving man, and some people think this folk hero's tale of his race against a steam power drill happened close to Dunnavant and not in West Virginia. Regions Bank lights up the Birmingham night sky during the holidays, and Alabama Power builds a lake that fills up much faster than everyone expects. Our final story, just in time for Veteran's Day, is about how Veteran's Day got its start in Birmingham, thanks to the efforts of Raymond Weeks. If you are hearing this teaser, then you are probably already a subscriber, and thank you for that!

Utah gets a lot of snow! And as skiers and riders, our objective is to get up to the resorts as quickly as possible. But who takes care of that 30 inches of snow that fell overnight? And who mitigates that cornice hanging a thousand of feet above the highway? Last Chair took a ride with the Utah Department of Transportation Cottonwoods plow team, talking with Jake Brown and riding with Shawn Walker on a snowy Big Cottonwood morning.It's just 13 miles up Little Cottonwood to Alta, 20 through Big Cottonwood to Brighton. But it's some of the toughest snow terrain in the world. Little Cottonwood Canyon alone has nearly 70 notable avalanche paths which can easily take out a car or plow truck (yes, it has happened).When you walk into the plow shed tucked away in Cottonwood Heights, you are immediately struck by the enormity of the equipment. A fleet of 10 Mack trucks is complemented by two graders, two enormous snow blowers (and not the kind you use on your driveway), a couple snowcats and a handful of huge pickup trucks. Plus, there is an assortment of blades including a pull-behind that can add huge plow power behind the 35-ton Mack trucks. Brown got his start simply applying to a newspaper ad for plow drivers 22 years ago. He was working I-15 for UDOT when after work on a Friday he was told to report to the Cottonwood Canyons two days later to take over a new role. “My first day here was a storm and I got baptized by fire on what it would be like in the Cottonwood Canyons and never looked back,” he recalled. “I've enjoyed every minute of it.”Shawn Wright is a Utah native who loves what he does. On a leisurely pre-dawn run up Big Cottonwood, he talks about his love for the state and its recreational resources. He chuckles as he talks about all he and his family do out in nature – “everything but skiing or snowboarding.”Jake and Shawn are typical of the men and women behind the plows. It takes a certain passion to report to the plow shed at 4:00 a.m. to open a road for skiers and snowboarders to get up the canyons.In this episode of Last Chair, you'll learn about the challenges and the dangers. You'll hear about trucks getting swept off the road by massive avalanches coming down from thousands of feet above. And you'll hopefully gain an appreciation for what these crews do for us.If you've ever driven up Big or Little Cottonwood Canyon in a snowstorm, this podcast is for you. And even if you've dreamed about it! Listen in as Last Chair takes you behind the scenes with the UDOT Cottonwoods Plow Team. Here are a few snippets to get you started:Jake, what is it that you and your team do?Our role is to orchestrate and schedule the plows up and down the canyon and also take care of the freeway and all the roads leading to the canyons, basically all the state routes. So our responsibility is to make sure that we have enough people for the heavy equipment and the plows and to make sure that we have enough salt and and make sure that everybody's up and and going and need where they need to be and take on the storm. So we become a weatherman and a kind of a jack of all trades.As a plow driver, what have you seen change in the canyons?Well, we have a canyon road and we have great resorts and we have the Greatest Snow on Earth. And a lot of people like to come to Utah for that reason. And besides minor changes, we really haven't done anything to the road in the last 10 to 20 years. And so we were getting higher traffic volumes. More people wanted to come ski, the resorts were getting more people that wanted to ski their terrain. And so we had to change with it. We had to adapt some of our ways. We did things where we plowed, some of the traffic safety devices, different things such as islands, high-T intersections. We had to install them to make sure that people could flow out of the canyon and people didn't get stuck in traffic because we do have such a high avalanche area in the Cottonwoods.How dangerous is Little Cottonwood Canyon?There are 62 slide paths that can hit the road at any time in Little Cottonwood Canyon. And we've seen a lot of those run. I was actually buried in an avalanche with our communications manager in our pickup truck at Seven Turns. We were up there hauling a snow cat getting ready for avalanche control work that morning. And an avalanche came down and buried our truck completely. So at any time you can be hit by an avalanche. How about Big Cottonwood?Big Cottonwood Canyon? We deal with more what we call bluffs, you know, small little avalanches that come off the road. They can take up to a lane, and about five, 10-feet deep – enough to stop the road, enough to stop a car. We do have some bigger slide paths in Big Cottonwood Canyon, and those are monitored by an avalanche crew. Those haven't gone down and hit the road. But if they do, they will block the road in a major fashion. They are big slide areas and can go very big.What's it like on a big snow day at 4:15 a.m.?So right around about 4:15, 4:20, the plows will enter the mouth of the canyon and start making their first plow up. Pretty amazing to see. They will have the front plow deployed with also two wings and heading up the canyon and pushing back as much as they can to get the road open. So they have a big responsibility to get all the way to the top of the mountain.Biggest storm that you can remember in your time here?Biggest storm? I think the biggest storm was probably the one that we got buried with the avalanche two years ago. It snowed over a foot in the valley and it kept snowing and snowing in the canyons. And I think we had almost 15 to 18 avalanches on the road. And some of those were 15 to 30 feet deep and some 50 yards wide. So it was a massive cleanup effort.How Can we Help?While there is roadside parking in some areas, pay attention to restrictions and always park to the right of the white line. Think about a plow truck with front and side wing blades coming through. Are you blocking the road? Will you be digging out later in the day?Get TractionKnow the Utah traction laws and make sure that your vehicle is in compliance before you head up into the Cottonwoods. Don't be that person who is in the canyon unprepared!Give ‘em RoomIf you see a plow truck, give them some space. Don't worry, they're not looking to beat you to Milly Express. By the nature of what they do, plow trucks scrape snow, rocks and dirt. You don't want that in your windshield!Park PrudentlyWhile there is roadside parking in some areas, pay attention to restrictions and park prudently.

Hey, this is Shawn Wright, the host of the Alabama Short Stories podcast. I am happy to announce that season 4 of the podcast is almost here.I capped off three great seasons by publishing the book “Alabama Short Stories, Volume 1.” Now I am ready to share ten more episodes of extraordinary people, places, and events. This season I tell the story of a woman who would not move from her seat on a Montgomery bus only to be arrested, and her name is not Rosa Parks. There is a story of a Japanese war bride whose dream was to have a garden built in her memory in Birmingham after discovering she had an incurable brain tumor. Another woman, the daughter of a senator from Alabama and a member of the Bankhead family, would go on to star on Broadway and in Hollywood. There are stories of inventors and engineers. One man has worked with the space program, but his greatest achievement is probably making a better water gun. The other man is a former slave who learned how to build bridges and helped remodel the Alabama State Capital building, where he also served in the state house of representatives. There is a story about a devil on I-65 warning you to go to church. And if you don't go and feel that you are more popular than Jesus, I have a story about what could happen to you, at least it happened to one famous band from England.Not-so-famous bands from England also have their story told, such as when goths crossed paths with the Mighty Wurlitzer at the Alabama Theater.I have a story about how Birmingham earned the nickname “Bombingham.” We finish the season with a tale about the man who saved Mobile's Mardi Gras.You can hear these stories and more by visiting alabamashortstories.com or, better yet, subscribe to the podcast, listen to past season episodes, and have each new episode downloaded and ready to listen when they become available. If you want to support the podcast, buy the book “Alabama Short Stories, Volume 1,” at Amazon.com.

I hope you have enjoyed season 3 of Alabama Short Stories. If you haven't heard the first two seasons, I encourage you to go back and give them a listen. If you prefer to read instead, I've got you covered. The book Alabama Short Stories, Volume 1, has been published on Amazon.com and contains all 30 stories from Seasons 1-3, and best of all, it contains pictures. Something that we can't show on a podcast. We all have friends and family who are just not interested in listening to podcasts, and my guess is that they are also difficult to buy presents for. And with Christmas right around the corner, why not get them a copy of “Alabama Short Stories, Volume 1.” It is available as a hardback, paperback, and kindle version. You can find it by searching on Amazon.com for Alabama Short Stories or my name, Shawn Wright. You can also find a link in the description and on alabamashortstories.com.This podcast has been a labor of love, and while it is free to listen to, it's not cheap to produce.

Hey, this is Shawn Wright, the host of the Alabama Short Stories podcast. I am happy to announce that season 3 of the podcast is almost here.There was a great response to the first two seasons, and this upcoming season will not disappoint. It's ten episodes of extraordinary people, state icons, unique events, and questions that need to be answered.We tell a story about the bright lights of Hollywood coming to Mobile to film the story of a toddler kidnapped by aliens. Then there is a story about a man from Anniston who moved to New York City and turned the lights up on the Great White Way.Another woman left Anniston, learned to fly, and decided that if Charles Lindbergh could fly across the Atlantic, why couldn't she? We find out if she made it or not.We tell about an outbreak of cholera that prompted over half the citizens of the newly incorporated Birmingham to move away. You will learn about a famous madam who, with other women of the night, stayed behind to care for the sick, Ultimately saving the city.We tell the story of a fancy elephant in Birmingham's Avondale neighborhood, stars falling on Alabama, and the town that made the first 911 call. It had to happen somewhere.We finish the season by answering lingering questions, such as: “How did the USS Alabama get to Mobile?” “How did that town get it's name?” And “if I park my car next to the kudzu patch, will it be there when I return?”You can hear these stories soon, wherever you like to listen to podcasts or on the website at alabamashortstories.com.But wait, there is more! I am proud to announce that the book “Alabama Short Stories, Volume 1” will soon be available on Amazon.com. This book features all the stories from seasons 1-3 with photos. The book will make an excellent gift for that Alabama history buff in your family, and your purchase will help us to continue to share great Alabama short stories with you. Support the show

Welcome to Alabama Short Stories Season 2. I'm your host, Shawn Wright.We have another season of great Alabama short stories that you may not have learned about in your Alabama Civics class or read in books. We have stories about the inventor of the typewriter and the Janney coupler used on trains. Both men were successful in their own ways, and they came from entirely different backgrounds.I tell stories about a man who spent his life on the highways of the south painting on barns and another man who spent a big part of his life building the largest stack wall in the world to honor a relative. There are stories of Alabama's only United States vice-president and a band director who taught and influenced some of the most renowned musicians of the past century. We have a story about a Canadian hockey player whose major milestone will be forever linked with the football capital of the south. And finally, there are three stories on the same mountain. One story is about going through the mountain instead of going around it. Another is about Vulcan's famous popsicle that would be lit in green or red depending upon the day's events. And there is the story of The Club at the end of the world. When you are faced with the apocalypse, it's time to party. I hope you will join me for season 2 and if you haven't heard season one just yet, make sure you listen to those stories as well.

Hi, my name is Shawn Wright, the host, and creator of Alabama Short Stories. The podcast that was created to celebrate those stories about Alabama that you don't hear about often, if ever. They are the stories that were not shared in your fourth-grade civics class. In the first season, we share two different stories of Alabama high school sports teams that had to overcome obstacles on their way towards a state championship. One team gets there and another doesn't. We tell the stories of two distinct painters in Huntsville. One trained in Europe before making his way to the American south while another spent her life in anonymity painting on spider webs. In Birmingham, one company starts the first radio station in Alabama while another decides it can best promote its company with a replica of Lady Liberty. We talk about sending monkeys into space and having to watch out for objects returning from space. And we talk about the windshield wiper. You can thank a woman from Birmingham for helping us see our way.To start it off, we tell the story of University of Alabama coach Paul “Bear” Bryant and a call to his mama.Join us to hear these stories in season one of the Alabama Short Stories podcast.

Gift Giving Guide (0:00:00) Christmas day is one of the most festive and fun of the year—not to mention satisfying. The feeling of finally getting to unwrap all the presents that have been calling your name from underneath the tree for weeks is hard to beat. However, as we get older, most of us arrive at the conclusion that there is one feeling more satisfying than opening your gifts—watching someone else unwrap a gift from you. There's only one catch and that's picking out the perfect gift. However, choosing the right gift is tricky business, especially for those difficult to shop for people on your list. Here to discuss some strategies for gift-shopping for even the most difficult person on your list is The Gifty Girl, Stephanie Yrungaray.   Dallyn Vail Bayles and Mindy Smoot Robbins (0:19:20) As part of Lisa's Christmas Music Sampler, musicians Dallyn Vail Bayles and Mindy Smoot Robbins talk with Lisa and Richie about their Christmas plans and give an exclusive Christmas performance.   Being the Best Gift Giver (0:43:38) One of the best parts about Christmas is seeing our loved ones light up with joy after opening their gifts. I think it gives us more pleasure to know we gave someone else the perfect gift than to receive our own presents. But sometimes we miss the mark. And there's nothing worse than watching someone open your gift only to see disappointment written all over their face.  And there's always that one person who is impossible to shop for and seems to always be unimpressed by our gift-giving. So, what can we do to find the perfect gift that won't need a gift receipt? Here to share his tips with us is marketing professor and psychology expert Jake Teeny.   Avoiding Debt Traps (0:52:50) It's tempting to go over budget when buying the perfect gift for your special someone. However financial experts are warning consumers to reign in their spending this year. This year has created a lot of economic uncertainty and accruing debt this holiday season could mean financial suicide. CNBC reports consumers are planning to spend just under one thousand dollars this holiday--$997.79 to be exact. While that's a little less than last year, it's still a significant amount of money, especially given the economic instability we're facing right now. Here to teach us how to avoid falling into debt traps this holiday season is financial specialist Shawn Wright.    Workplace Resolutions (1:34:51) As we begin to close a historic year that affected each and every one of us, we can't help but reflect on all that we've experienced and learned.... as well as all of our New Year's Resolutions that went unfulfilled. Despite the uncertainties that 2021 may or may not hold, making resolutions will help us grow. So today, we want to discuss professional resolutions or goals we can make for our work and careers. But how do you make workplace resolutions when you don't know what the next 12 months will hold? To help us out is business consultant, negotiation expert and friend of the show, Josh Doody.
