What happens when Arkansas storytellers get together and start swapping stories? You hear about a man who unknowingly gives Sam Walton his opinion of a brand-new warehouse, a rattlesnake that winds up where no sane person would want one, a 17-point buck nobody believes exists, and a man who goes looking for a fight with a preacher who reacts in a way he never expected.
Along the way, we get stories about old-time Arkansas childhoods, U.S. marshals hunting outlaws, homemade toys, Christmas before electricity, boxing, hunting, dangerous animals, and the people who shaped these storytellers’ lives. We also finish with a conversation about the Good Samaritan, mercy, revenge, and what it looks like when Christ changes the way we treat people.
The Hayden Alabama Podcast is a place for Southern stories, unforgettable characters, laughter, faith, and the kind of conversations you usually only hear when everybody pulls up a chair and stays awhile. Subscribe and come hear what these Razorback folks have to tell us.
