37 Brian Powers: marketing director, bassist, podcast host

Send us a text message about this episode!

Brian Powers is a legal marketer, a recovering attorney, a musician, and a podcaster. He is the Marketing Director of the McBrayer law firm, and he has been a freelance writer for such publications as Business Lexington and ACE Weekly in Lexington, Kentucky, earning a third-place Kentucky Press Association award somehow. 

He lives with his wife, his three youngest kids, and the devil's own pug in a haunted house in Versailles, Kentucky. When he isn't writing for or recording his dad-joke-filled podcast on odd and obscure American history, American Esoterica, he is the bassist and a singer of the band Witness Protection, a band made up almost entirely of lawyers. He enjoys long walks on anywhere but the beach because he grew up in Florida and would be thrilled to never see sand again.

Kathie's note: I met Brian in the 2010s through a loose network of nonfiction writers in Lexington, Kentucky. He's been a great resource for legal questions (thanks for the free advice, Brian!) and general shoptalk. 

Oh, in this episode, I learned what comes after primary, secondary, tertiary. Yep, today years old when I heard the word "quaternary" for the first time. A quick dive into a shallow rabbit hole produced the next adjectives in the sequence: quinary, senary, septenary, octonary, nonary, denary. Stop it! (Meaning, don't ever stop using cool words.)
