Redneck Matinee
Jackie Broyles and Dunlap have been watching Southern movies their whole lives, and now they're watchin' 'em for you, podcast-style. They ain't film critics— Jackie's the grizzled old proprietor of Jackie's Market in Murfreesboro, TN, and Dunlap's half-high and mostly drunk — but they know art when they see it. If you love truckdrivin', shinerunnin', stickhittin', bareknucklin', bootleggin', carchasin', bridgejumpin', dirtbikin', yes-ma'amin', monkey-havin', CBin', beerdrinkin', Jerry-Reedin' downhome drive-in southern-fried films, then get your ears on, good buddy. We got a long way to go and an average-podcast-amount-of-time to get there.
