Dr. C. N. Willborn, pastor of Covenant PCA in Oak Ridge, Tennessee, speaks about the life, ministry, and enduring theological legacy of John Lafayette Girardeau—a figure often hidden in the shadow of Thornwell and Dabney, yet towering in pastoral warmth, covenant theology, and confessional clarity. Girardeau emerges as a remarkably gifted scholar, a pastor deeply loved by both enslaved and free Black congregants, and a theologian who married doctrinal precision with heartfelt pastoral care. Through stories of his early intellectual formation, his ministry at Zion Presbyterian Church, his courageous stand against segregation in 1874, and his role in shaping debates on adoption, the will, worship, and evolution controversies, listeners gain a moving portrait of a man captivated by Christ and devoted to the communion of the saints. This episode invites us to look beyond caricatures of Southern Presbyterianism and see a pastor who was shaped by his Huguenot and Scottish heritage, attentive to the spiritual well-being of the marginalized, and unwavering in his conviction that the church must be governed by Scripture and formed by a robust federal theology. Girardeau's story not only expands our understanding of American Presbyterian history—it encourages believers today to pursue ministry marked by doctrinal fidelity, Christ-centered preaching, and sacrificial love.

This week, old time early radio days throwback quartet Bill and the Belles recorded live at the Ozark Folk Center State Park. Also, interviews with these novel retro performers. What began as a project to explore the space created between hillbilly and urban, between vaudeville and down home, has arrived somewhere entirely new. Bill and the Belles offers a contemporary reimagining of a bygone era, a vocal-centric performance that breathes new life into the sounds of early country music. At the foothills of the Blue Ridge and the forefront of old-time music, Bill and the Belles continue to further the music traditions of their region. From sentimental Southern ballads to the popular songs of Tin Pan Alley to regional fiddle breakdowns, a Bill and the Belles show is a celebration of the diversity country music once represented. Bill and the Belles play alongside America's top country and roots music artists as the house band for the historic radio program Farm and Fun Time presented by Radio Bristol and the Birthplace of Country Music. Lifelong musicians Kris Truelsen, Grace Van't Hof, Kalia Yeagle, and Karl Zerfas bring to the stage an uplifting show unlike any other, full of humor, high spirits, and all-around revelry. It's clear this group shares a rare musical connection and deep love for the music, and their excitement is contagious. In this week's “From the Vault” segment, musician, educator, and country music legacy Mark Jones offers an archival recording of Ozark original Aubrey Richardson performing the traditional song “Bunker Hill,” from the Ozark Folk Center State Park archives.
Tune in here to this Wednesday edition of the Brett Winterble Show! Brett kicks off the program by discussing America’s 250th anniversary, which will begin on the first day of 2026. He emphasizes that the nation’s success from its founding has been built on both leaders and leadership. To underscore that point, he reflects on George Washington, imagining what the first president might say to Americans today. Brett delivers a monologue from Washington’s perspective, offering a message he frames as relevant to the current state of the nation heading into the new year. The monologue includes statements such as, “The dangers of your republic are no longer distant,” and, “Liberty cannot endure if truth becomes negotiable.” Brett presents the speech as an important message that is relevant to all Americans. Brett also addresses the upcoming term of New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani, who is set to be sworn in on New Year’s Day. He remarks that New York will be considered “conquered land,” since the city is now under the leadership of a Socialist mayor. Brett emphasizes that people across the country should pay attention to Mamdani’s tenure, citing that residents have relocated - and may continue to relocate - to Southern states during his time in office.

a foretaste of glory divine yet to come - Artist, writer, and athlete Bill Gramley of Winston-Salem, North Carolina, recounts his discoveries of Southern cooking and describes the delectables offered up from the table set by his mother-in-law on a 1950s North Carolina farm. Bill Gramley is a retired Moravian minister. In recent years he has written several Devotional Expressions and Prayers booklets through Centenary United Methodist Church in Winston-Salem. He writes in the Senior Games Literary Arts category each year and stays active competing in track and field, mostly as a shot put, discus, and hammer thrower, winning the Masters national discus championship in 2019 for men aged 80-84. He and his wife, Sandra, live in Lewisville, NC.
James, Jimmy, and Glenn are joined by Sarah and Jim to discuss the meaning of “faith alone” and the origin of the church's authority. Jimmy unpacks the difference between justifying faith and the lifelong process of sanctification, arguing that true faith inevitably produces good works but never earns God's favor. Sarah reads from the Catholic Catechism and Pope Benedict XVI to show how “faith alone” may be conflated with being wholly united to Christ, while still insisting that living faith is inseparable from love, obedience, baptism, and incorporation into the church, and she expresses concern with the concept of sola fide. Along the way, they compare Methodist “prevenient grace,” Calvinist “irresistible grace,” and Catholic sacramental language about “receiving” rather than taking the Eucharist, looking for common ground beneath the different vocabularies of Protestant and Catholic theology. The crew also gathers in studio for New Year's Eve, trading family stories, joking about Southern “bunkers,” and reflecting on how much of American resilience still lives in ordinary, well-armed households rather than distant institutions.

We're excited to welcome husband-and-wife design duo Heather and Matt French to the show. Based in Santa Fe, New Mexico, their firm, French & French Interiors, is known for creating luxurious yet livable spaces that are rich in color, pattern, and storytelling. Heather and Matt join Caroline and Liz to discuss their unique journey from careers in natural medicine and building to becoming interior designers. They share how they blend their Southern roots with the distinct architecture of the American Southwest, why they believe in "softening" a harsh landscape with cozy florals, and how they turned their own home into a "designer lab." Quick Decorating Takeaways: Find Your "Keystone" Fabric: Heather anchors her elaborate color palettes with a single multi-colored "keystone" fabric that serves as a roadmap for the entire design scheme. Create a Respite from the Environment: Rather than mimicking harsh outdoor landscapes, Heather and Matt recommend using soft florals and wallpapers to create a cozy indoor respite. Study the Masters: Matt emphasizes that studying design history and legends like Sister Parish can be just as valuable as a formal degree for developing a great eye.

Joe and Nathan kick off Season 18 of RuPaul's Drag Race by diving deep into the Meet the Queens specials—without relying on runway visuals alone. Instead, they focus on experience, confidence, careers, personalities, and storytelling potential, breaking down what actually matters heading into a new flagship season. With 14 queens, a noticeably more seasoned cast, and early signs of built-in storylines, Joe and Nathan unpack who feels ready to deliver, who might struggle outside their comfort zone, and which queens already feel like production favorites. Why this Meet the Queens felt flatter than usual—and how the interview questions may have undersold the cast A noticeable shift toward older, more experienced queens and what that could mean for the season's tone Joe's experiment going into the season without seeing the queens visually—and how that changes first impressions The impact of queens with real-world careers (nurses, engineers, designers, performers) versus drag-only résumés Early signs of villains, wild cards, and queens likely to thrive under pressure Whether Drag Race fatigue is real—and why expectations feel muted heading into Season 18 Joe and Nathan break down each queen's background, drag history, strengths, and potential pitfalls, including: Athena Dion – Pageant authority, legacy drag, and confidence that reads finalist-ready Briar Blush – Razor-tongued Boston queen already clocked as a likely villain Sierra Mist – Prosthetics, sci-fi aesthetics, and questions about versatility Darlene Mitchell – Mall drag, sobriety, and whether anti-polish can survive modern Drag Race Didi Fuego – DIY energy, long audition history, and concerns about performance chops Discord Adams – Punk maximalism and whether a narrow aesthetic limits longevity Jane Don't – Seattle wit, comedy instincts, and RuPaul-friendly naming power Juicy Love Dion – Youth, athleticism, and a built-in family storyline Kenya Pleaser – Big personality, political presence, and early fan buzz Mandy Mango – Filipina nurse, pageant polish, and “Jan-ification” fears Mia Starr – Professional dancer with questions about drag rust Mikey Meeks – Theatre kid chaos and early delusion warnings Nini Coco – Engineer-turned-drag-queen with standout construction skills Vida Von T. Starr – Old-school Southern pageant drag and strategic restraint Joe and Nathan each lay out: Bottom group (early outs) Middle pack (survivors with question marks) Top 4 predictions, based on experience, adaptability, and narrative potential They also discuss why these predictions are almost guaranteed to be wrong—and why that's part of the fun. Season 18 may not arrive with explosive hype, but it's shaping up to be a talent-heavy, experience-driven season that could reward queens who know how to deliver under pressure rather than rely on aesthetics alone. Whether that translates into compelling television remains to be seen—but the groundwork is there. Get the full, uncut episodes early, ad-free, and with extended discussion by joining us on Patreon:

In this episode of Retire Southern, James sits down with Chris Hall, one of the South's most influential hospitality leaders and the co-founder of Unsukay Restaurant Group.

This conversation explores the heart of Southern dining, the evolution of intentional hospitality spaces like Warhorse and Seahorse, the dishes you absolutely cannot miss at each of his restaurants, and why human connection sits at the center of everything Chris and his team create.

In this episode, Cory Connors welcomes Dave Ford, founder and partner of Circle by OPLN, to discuss how neutral convening is transforming collaboration around the plastic crisis. Dave shares the origin of the Circle Program, the launch of the Legislator Guide for Circular Policy, and how bringing policymakers, industry, and NGOs together has shaped national conversations on EPR, DRS, and circularity. He reflects on the early days of OPLN, the pivotal expeditions that exposed leaders firsthand to plastic pollution, and how these experiences built a foundation for trust, shared understanding, and meaningful systems‑level change.Key Topics Discussed:Launch of the Legislator Guide for Circular Policy and how it simplifies complex EPR/DRS concepts for elected officials.Circle Program origins: taking legislators and cross‑value‑chain stakeholders to locations with implemented EPR and deposit‑return systems worldwide.See Change Sessions outcomes, including cross‑sector collaboration and the decision to build the guide as a living digital resource.The importance of neutral convening—bringing petrochemical leaders, NGOs, policymakers, and brands together without an advocacy agenda.OPLN's origin story, including expeditions to the Atlantic Garbage Patch that united 165 participants across the plastics ecosystem.The increasing need for education, readiness, and implementation support for companies navigating new EPR laws.How messaging around circularity shifts between regions, including emerging momentum for circular policy in Southern states.Resources Mentioned:Circle by OPLN – circlenetwork.coLegislator Guide for Circular PolicyThe Recycling PartnershipOcean ConservancyAtlantic Packaging & A New Earth ProjectContact:Dave Ford on LinkedInOPLN on LinkedIn: OPLNClosing Thoughts:Cory and Dave emphasize the transformative power of bringing all stakeholders—industry, government, and NGOs—into one room, with neutrality, transparency, and shared learning as the foundation.

Ryan was recently a guest on Shilo Brooks' podcast, Old School, to talk about a book that's meant a lot to him over the years, Walker Percy's The Moviegoer. They discuss why this quiet Southern novel, set in postwar New Orleans, remains so resonant and what it reveals about meaning, distraction, and the universal search for purpose.Catch the rest of the episode by checking out Old School with Shilo Brooks on Youtube, Apple, or Spotify

The return of White Tighties Jeremy Turner accidentally shooting Viagra and an email all about meth-fueled multi-day porn marathons that destroy skin and phones another about brutal long-term benzo withdrawal horrors, and a wild prison-submitted bath salts tale full of paranoia and fake-reality glitches.Then, at 25:42, Yellow Balloon recovery powerhouse Jen Dawson takes over with her unforgettable Southern story – from feeling like an outsider in a "normal" family, early prescribed Adderall and wild "nipple" psilocybin mushrooms, diving headfirst into '99 Phish tour life, crystal meth insanity, toxic soulmate drama (including a pistol-whipping incident), a venomous spider bite leading to near foot amputation and a pain-clinic fentanyl jackpot, research chemicals, shooting heroin, the devastating stillbirth of her son Dakota, a suicide attempt, multiple jail stints, and finally true surrender in a strict year-long program. Now 11 years sober, Jen shares how sweat lodges helped her connect with Dakota's spirit, rebuilding life with daughter Cyprus (now 18 and thriving), going to college, and finding lifelong community in the Yellow Balloon sober jam-band scene.

Send us a textWalker Percy's 1961 debut novel The Moviegoer---which shocked the literary world when it came out of nowhere to win the National Book Award against some stiff competition---may strike contemporary readers as an elusive novel. The first-person, present-tense voice feels contemporary enough, but the narrator, the New Orleans stockbroker John Bickerson "Binx" Bolling, isn't a rebel without a cause, a Bohemian adventurer, or an angry young man like many heroes of the Eisenhower/Kennedy era. Instead, he's a thirty-year-old Korean War vet in a state of ennui, living life without a sense of engagement, not necessarily adrift (he's successful enough at his job), but without a driving sense of purpose or meaning. The Moviegoer is perhaps the quintessential philosophical novel of the mid-20th century: it's about Binx and his cousin Kate's parallel quest to understand what it means to be alive. In this regard, it's an existential novel, a term that needs some defining: Percy was one of our great dramatists of the Danish philosopher Soren Kierkegaard, who insisted that the struggle for authenticity through lived experience was the closest path to God. The result can feel episodic and abstract, and maybe even frustrating since the New Orleans setting feels like a backdrop and not a social scene. (How exactly this novel is "Southern" is one of the great critical debates surrounding it). But Percy, a graduate of medical school, was a supreme diagnostician of the soul sickness that arose from postwar prosperity and consumerism. The Moviegoer isn't as much about popular culture but about the work it takes to feel you are the author of the movie of your life, and not the audience. All opinions are the hosts' own and do not reflect the points of view of their employers, publishers, relatives, pets, or accountants. All show music is by Lobo Loco.

In “Southern caviar is wild, nutty, and...sustainable?” Gravy producer Irina Zhorov takes us to the Tombigbee River, where valuable paddlefish swim, and makes a case for caviar as an ingredient with a Southern pedigree. Every mature female fish makes roe—that's the term for their clusters of unfertilized eggs. But caviar, for purists, comes from an ancient fish called sturgeon. There are more than two dozen species of sturgeon, but the best-known caviars come from a handful of species native to Russia and Central Asia: Beluga, Sevruga, Kaluga and Osetra. These fish are diadromous, which means they can live in both rivers and seas. And historically they were caught in the wild, their roe processed into caviar, and eventually sent around the world. Though fish roe started out as poor people's food in Russia, it evolved to be synonymous with luxury, royalty. However, sturgeon were so overfished that it is now illegal in most places to import their wild-harvested caviar. In the U.S., too, several species of sturgeon were once dense along the eastern coast, in the Great Lakes, in California, and elsewhere. Indigenous tribes and white settlers alike consumed Atlantic sturgeon before a caviar rush in the 1800s diminished their numbers. It's illegal to fish for most domestic sturgeon. Today, more than 99 percent of caviar globally comes from farms, mostly in China. There are a few exceptions to this rule in the U.S. Small shovelnose sturgeon can still be harvested in some areas for caviar. And paddlefish—which is not a sturgeon, but its close cousin—is fair game in some states, too. The fish live in the Mississippi River and its tributaries. While the U.S. has an available supply of wild-caught, high-quality caviar, it lacks a clear cultural context for how to enjoy this decadent treat. In this episode, Zhorov speaks to Mike Kelley of Kelley's Katch, a Tennessee caviar producer, and biologist Steve Rider, who studies paddlefish populations in Alabama, to learn about a food that's from the South but, paradoxically, not at all associated with Southern cuisine. Some people and companies are trying to educate American consumers about caviar and to modernize the way domestic consumers eat the food. That can include parties with caviar tutorials and introducing new, American ways to indulge, like with a dollop of caviar on Doritos. Christine Lemieux, one-half of the company Caviar Dream, explains how this delicacy can be for everyone. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

It's February of 1980, and Dale Earnhardt is hungry to return to victory lane. The Osterlund-2 car hasn't brought home a win since David Pearson filled in for Dale at the Southern 500 the previous year. Plus, with a new contract and sponsorship comes expectations, so needless to say, he's eager to hold up his end of the bargain. Thankfully, he won't have to wait long, as he overcomes adversity at Atlanta for his first speedway win and follows it up with a repeat at Bristol. He quickly goes from a potential flash-in-the-pan, one-time winner to etching his name into the NASCAR history books.But racing is a humbling sport, and his jubilation won't last long. More engine problems and a lack of speed would relegate him back to the middle of the pack, and that pressure to perform would build up again. Unfortunately, this time, the pressure pushes Dale to make a blunderous mistake on the opening lap of the spring Martinsville event, and he has a run-in with a fella you never want to cross: King Richard Petty.FanDuel: Must be 21+ and present in select states (for Kansas, in affiliation with Kansas Star Casino) or 18+ and present in D.C.

Today we're delving into the archives and revisiting Don and Michael Kauffman's conversation on the Assassination of Abraham Lincoln...On the evening of 14th April, 1865, the Union was celebrating victory in the civil war, won 5 days earlier with General Lee's surrender at Appomattox. President Abraham Lincoln was watching a play at Ford's Theatre in Washington DC. But some Southern sympathisers still thought the Confederacy could be restored. Among them was the actor John Wilkes Booth. He entered the theatre, made his way to Lincoln's box and carried out the first assassination of a US president. Michael Kauffman takes Don through the conspiracy to murder Lincoln and the act itself, after which Booth fled on horseback, into the night.Produced by Benjie Guy. Mixed by Aidan Lonergan.

POPULIST THREATS FROM THE SOUTH: HUEY LONG AND THE TALMADGES Colleague David Pietrusza. Roosevelt faced significant challenges from Southern populists who threatened to split his support in the solid South. The most dangerous was Huey Long of Louisiana, whose left-wing "Share Our Wealth" program promised massive redistribution of assets. Long planned to siphon votes in 1936 to ensure a Republican victory, hoping to win the presidency himself in 1940, but his assassination in 1935 removed this threat. Meanwhile, Georgia's Eugene Talmadge, a conservative populist who engaged in race-baiting and opposed welfare, rallied radical elements and Confederatesympathizers against the New Deal, complicating Roosevelt's strategy. NUMBER 2
ELECTION NIGHT LANDSLIDE AND POLITICAL REALIGNMENT Colleague David Pietrusza. On election night, early returns from Connecticut signaled a massive victory for Roosevelt, contradicting the predictions of the Literary Digest straw poll. Roosevelt won a historic landslide, capturing 46 states and sweeping huge Democraticmajorities into Congress. This victory marked a permanent political realignment, as the children of immigrants in major cities overwhelmingly voted for Roosevelt. While Landon's campaign was decimated, the election solidified the Democratic Party's shift from a Southern-dominated organization to a national coalition powered by urban centers and the working class, cementing the triumph of the liberal ideal. NUMBER 8
The girls are back in their no-guest, unhinged era — just Lex P and Drea Nicole on the couch, letting the conversation fly. They kick things off debating movies that get straight to the point, then spiral into lash blindness, beauty breaks, and New York energy. Lex shares her first Starlets experience, the differences between Southern and NYC strip club culture, and asks the real question: where were the brown girls? The convo takes a wild turn into aggressive honking, Uber chaos, big dogs in small apartments, pet hygiene, and why everybody doesn’t need a Great Dane in a one-bedroom. From there, things get messy with funky breath debates, veneers done right vs. shortcut veneers, and brushing your tongue (yes, it matters). They close things out talking growth, reinvention, and evolution — how Pour Minds has changed, why growth isn’t “switching up,” and what it really means to show up as your most authentic self. Funny, honest, and very Pour Minds.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Today is the December solstice – the start of winter in the northern hemisphere. It’s the darkest time of the year – many hours of darkness for watching the stars. But it’s also a great time for space science in Antarctica, where it’s daylight around the clock. NASA launches high-altitude balloons from a base near McMurdo Station, the continent’s largest settlement. Their payloads can keep an eye on the heavens for weeks as they circle around the south pole. When their work is done, they parachute to the ice. Scientists from the United States, Japan, and other countries hunt for meteorites in Antarctica. There aren’t more meteorites there, but on the ice, there’s a good chance that almost any rock came from beyond Earth. Over the decades, tens of thousands of meteorites have been found there. Astronomers take advantage of the daylight to repair and upgrade telescopes at the south pole. The collection includes instruments that study the “afterglow” of the Big Bang. The instruments can operate even in daylight, but the southern summer is the only time to do most of the maintenance work. The south pole also is home to IceCube – a collection of thousands of light detectors frozen in the ice. They look for neutrinos – particles that tell us about some of the most energetic events in the universe. IceCube can also operate all year – even under the midnight sun at the south pole.

There are old homes… and then there are family homes—places layered with generations of memories, loss, and the kind of history that doesn't always stay quiet. For her, moving into her boyfriend's ancestral Southern home should've been comforting. Five generations of the same family had lived—and died—under that roof. The land was old. The walls were older. But from the moment she stepped inside, something felt wrong. Not aggressive. Not dramatic. Just… watchful. As if the house itself had eyes. But one night, while settling in for a movie upstairs, something stepped across the hallway—something wearing a very specific piece of clothing that she knew she had never seen before. And that was only the beginning. Are these echoes of a family that never truly left? Residual memory? Or something far more personal—spirits tied to bloodline, land, and legacy? Whatever the truth is… this house is anything but empty. #ghoststory #paranormal #hauntedhouse #realghoststoriesonline #ghostsightings #southernhauntings #apparition #hauntedfamilyhome #trueghoststory #residualenergy #hauntedhistory #spiritactivity Love real ghost stories?
